HUGE SUCCESS
ROBERTSON TO
APPEAR HEll
NEXT TUESDAY
The annual Mardi Gras, Iris
benefit party, staged Tuesday
evening, February 13, in the new
gymnasium, wgain proved itself
to be a financial and social success.
Both Juniors
The honor of leading the costumed grand march as king and
queen of the ball fell to Nolan
Gregory, Stevens Point; and to
Thyrza Iverson, Cape May, N. J.,
who were chosen from a field of
f·our candidates for each honor representing the various classes of
the colleges. Both are members
of the Junior class.
Three Prizes
The prizes given to the best
costumed couple went to Jean
Lynn and Irene Miller, whose costumes were decked with advertisements. The most appropriately
disguised individual at the dance
was Fern Van Vuren dressed in
spanish apparel. The third prize
went to Charles Scri'bner as the
most comical masked person. He
was a ''two-faced'' character with
clothes turned back to front.
Dancing, to the music of "The
Castillians" was enjoyed from
9 :15 until 12 :00 o'clock.
Supplementing the dance was
the show given in the main auditorium which featured George
Maurer and "his gang". An added
feature to the regular collegiate
performance was the best of the
local Mickey Mouse program
which broadcasts every Saturday
afternoon over the local radio
station, WLBL, in conjunction
with the Fox Theatre.
Radio Performers
The guest performers were : six
year old Virginia Oldenburg who
sang and danced; Jack and Carl
Next Tuesday evening, February 20, · Duncan Robertson, baHtone, will present for the approyal of college students and tQwn~:, ' .
people "his recitals of Salon Mu- .
sic",. Mr. Robertson is not. a
stranger to Stevens Point audiences. His appearance here last
year received the acclaim of all
music lovers who were fortunate
enough to be in attendance.
Unconventional Concert
From the advance advertising
in the hands of The Pointer we
quote the following: "It is quite
evident that audiences of today
are searching for music presented
in a less conventional way than
the regulation concert. Most of
·our beautiful music was composed
for, and first heard in the charming informality of salons. There
was an intimacy about it which
time and change has almost eradicated.
Tickets in Office
This atmosphere is what Duncan Robertson is so delightfully
bringing back in his Recitals of
Salon Music. Sitting at the piano,
chatting about the songs he sings,
he is able to create a bond of intimacy between himself and his
audience that makes his singing
most appealing to the listener."
College students will find it necessary to secure their tickets for
admission to this performance
from the main office.

Ashmun Club Dance
After Game Saturday
Margaret Ashmun will sponsor
a dance in the new gymnasium
Saturday evening, February 17,
fo'llowing the Milwaukee game.
Aaron Mannis and the collegians will furnish the music for
the event. Dancing will start immediately after the game and
continue until eleven-thirty.
Admission will 1be twenty-five
cents to all. College, Prep students and Townspeople are invited.

Last Semester
Band Clinic Figures released from the main
Peter J. Michelson attended the
Central State Band Clinic at
Plainfield, Wisconsin last night.
Mr. Michelson with band directors
of approximatley thirty other
schools of this district was invited by the Plainfield Music Department to attend the Clinic's
Monthly concert.
The Central State Clinic, affiliated with the State Teachers
Association, has a concert once a
month during the school term
given by respective schools of the
district. At these concerts the representatives, after listening to
the program discuss the defects,
possible improvements as well as
the good features of the rehersal.
40 Schools Included
Those schools that are included
in this district are : Medford, Mosinee, Withee, Colby, Marshfield,
Wisconsin Rapids, J:>ort Edwards,
Nekoosa, New Lisbon, AdamsFriendship, Mauston, Clintonville,
New London, Berlin, Antigo,
Neilsville, Unity, Owen, Abbottsford, Endeavor, Oxford, Westfield, Colona, Hancock, Plainfield, Almond, Wautoma, Wild

Amherst, Stevens Point, lola, Wittenberg, Merrill, Wausau; and
Shawano. Since there are only
about eight or nine "bull sessions" of the organization a year,
it is evident that each school becomes the host of the representatives once in every four or five
years.

An analysis shows that of the

The manner in which the records are kept makes it possible
to know at anytime exactly how
many students have registered
during the entire year.
Harlequin Adds 5
Members -To Rolls
Harlequin, local dramatic club,
held its meeting in Mr. Burrough's
room Monday evening; at which
time a. discussion was held concerning prospective members. New
active members taken into the organization were : William Theirsen, Bonita Newby, William Ringness, Gideon Carswell, Ellen
Thorpe. These people are qualified through having taken one
major part or a minor part in two
of the Harlequin plays.
The following persons were elected associate members: Leonard Scheel, Winifred Marx, Florence Knope, Viola Hotvedt, William Trindal, June Hochstafl, and
Velma Scribner. The above named
have taken some active part in
Harlequin work.
'Fletcher And Son'
Well Received By
Capacity Audience
Last Monday evening, February
12, The Interstate Players of Chicago presented a very amusing
four-act comedy, "Fletcher and
Son", based on the eternal struggle between youth and age.
Most Senior members of the college will remember "Grumpy" in
a play characteristic of the name.
Bearing this play in mind we can
get a very good conception of
"Fletcher and Son" in which
Youth thinks it can manage the
world better than age.
The auditorium was crowded to
its capacity, and the program was
so well liked that Mr. Hyer has
tried to make arrangements to
have this group present the play
"Grumpy" at some convenient
date in the future.

ERRONEOUS IMPREiSSIONS
There seems to be some misundersta·nding regarding the article
ap.pearing in last week's issue concerning enrollment. Since there
was n~thin&' said about th~ number of students enroUed on that day,
the pomt of controversy hes in that. We certainly appreciate the
fact that an exceptionaLly large number were enrolled and the -people
worki·ug in the office are to •be complimented on their efficient and
speedy work. We realize that the office fo·rce is entirely .too small
for situations of this kind, and we appreciate the fact ·that the members of the faculty are offering their time and services at these timeB
gratis.
\V e also agree that a more efficient system of registering the
st~dents
would be virtually_ impossible. The secretary is constantly
bemg called on to make varwus reports, plus the fact that the entire
enrollment is audited each semester, and absolute accuracy as to the
numbers of enrollment, etc. is essential. This problem is very accurately taken care of under the present system.
However, our suggestion of dividi·ng the num'bers into · their
respecti'':'e de~artments or classes had no intentional bearing on the
manner m whiCh the students enrolled or registered within the office.
Our su.?gestion m_erely concerned those who were lined up outside
the_ office door, m the hallway. The students upon entering the
office door, would be enrolle•d in exactly the same manner in whi~h
the! were enrolled this semester. The only probable change in the
entire proceedure, would be the possibiility of ·the formation of
shorter lines in the hallway.

That there is a necessity for uniform and p-roper temperature,
humi·dity and ventilation in any building is undisputable; also overheating beyond a certain ·determined degree is a direct loss, but no
heating system or appurtances will ever be constructed which will
fill the requirements satisfactorily, of every occupant all the time or
under any and all •con'ditions. Our main buildirrg was ~constructed
some forty years ago, and its heating system is not as n\odern as the
present day bulidings are constructed. In past years it has been
found necessary to remodel some of the rooms, removing or putting
in partitions to make rooms where or for what they were not originally intended, this spoili·rig the effect desired by the use of temperature controls. In making alterations to rooms in some cases thermostats-have •been placed behind book cases, lockers etc., some were removed entirely or placed in another room making their use of very
little value. In one part of this building we have an obsolete type of
thermostat which can only be regulated to within aJbout ten degrees
of the desired temperature.' •Some rooms have hand controlled valves
on the radiators, such as are in the halls, and if left alone you will
find these shut off most of the time. In some cases where the rooms
do not have the proper temperature, it will be found that the thermostats have •been tampered with instead of notifying the Engineer.
rL'oothpicks, mat•ches and hair pins have been used: on them to try
a;nd satisfy the individual, thus ruining the thermostat. These are
delicate instruments and should not be tampered with by anyone
who is not familiar with their operation.
1
In regards to humidification, this building is not properly constru-cted to meet the requirements of artificia-l humidification satisfactorily, due to the absence of doulble or air spaced windows or inside wall insulation. The reason being that if there were a higher
percentage of moisture in the indoor air during cold weather, there
would be considerable percipitation of moisture on the windows and
outside walls. Buildings with poorly equipped doom and windows
which are continually being opened and sometimes 1eft open, require
very little if any further ventilation. Then a•gain we have some 750
population in this building whose physical •conditions and dress are
not the same. Due to the kind of clothes worn or physical condition
of some of this population, they will require more or less heat as the
ease may be. Some in order to keep up-to-date in style wear very
light clothing and this applys to the male sex as weH as the little girl
you wrote a•bout in your last issue: ''Mary had a dress, dainty, white
and airy, which didn't show the dirt a bit, but Gosh! how it did show
l\'Iary. '' Physical conditions of a person also applys to the li•ghting
question. On dark days some with poor eye-sight require artificiat
light, while at the same time others do not and are bothered by its
use. So you see there are many things to be taken i')ltO consideration. Yon possi'bly have noticed in the past couple years that our
good President, 1\Ir. Hyer, is doing all he possi'bly can in these trying
times to remove, remodel or replace all obsolete equipment with more
modern type. 'So let us all cooperate ·with him and conserve light
and fuel to the best of our ability and help to reduce the above mentioned national waste regardless of our equ1pment.
As far as our heating plant is concerned I know we are operating
more efficiently than a great many plants are operated - as I have
the fl~ll cooperation of the fireman to this end. Students and Facultx are welcome to vi1sit our heating, plant anytime and we will attempt to answer any questions you may want to ask concerning the
plant or equipment. "So ·come up and see us sometime." It might
be well to mention here that this school has not been closed one day
in the past 14 years that I have been here due to lack of heat or
failure of equipment. Neither have we had any serious experience
of siclmess in our midst. It is true though that we have had trying
days and this is es}Jecially true in our new training school with its
modern, although a delinquent systeni; 1\Ir. Davidson defines it, "A
modern system for a Moderate Climate." Take a look at Nelson
Hall where we also supply steam; a modern building but not its heating rsystem, not any automatic temperature controls in the building;
there is a place to save fuel by their installation. I do not consider
this analogy .perfect, J olmny Q. Pu1blic, ·but I hope I have given you
a little light on the subject and in closing let us see just what an efficient man's requirements are: Efficiency is the Measure of Man. It
is the ability to use his passions, likes, dislikes, haJbits, experience,
education, mind, body and heart-and not to be used by these things.
It is self mastering, ·concentration, vision and common sense. It is
the sum total of all that is in a man.
Yours For Efficiency

(Chief Engineer).

In addition to the regular stage

employed to add color to the presentations.
COMMENT ON MARDI GRAS
Dem· Editor:
I wonder why the students hang
on to an institution that is dead.
Hereafter, have your last fling before Lent, but frankly give notice
that it is not a costume ball. The
students are either too young to
play or too egotistical to imagine
themselves in any role-s but those
they are living every day. People
who Masquerade do not wish to
be apart from the scheme of the
evening. 'l'he preponderance of opinion from those who have come
to the dance m the eustomary
dresses and snits make those in
costume feel estranged and uncomfortable. Either taboo costuming
at the next Mardi Gras or start
an advertising campaign two
weeks ahead of time that will be
so irresistable in its appeal that no
one will come to the dance without
bing dressed appropiately for such
a gala event.

Van Hecke-Hotvedt
Students, faculty members, and
allllmni of Central State Teachers
College will be pleased to learn of
the recent marriage of Miss Frances Van Heeke, and Mr. Burton
Hotvedt, ·both of whom were
former students of this institution.
The nuptial knot was tied by
the Rev . .B'ather Casey, last Saturday morning at 9 o'clock, at the
St. Stephens parsonage in this
city. :Miss Margaret Levi was
maid of honor, and George Maurer was the best man. Both of the
attendants are regular students
here now.
While in attendance at this
school the bride was a member of
Tau Gamma Beta sorority. Mrs.
Hotvedt was also active in college
music circles.
The groom, a '33 graduate, is a
former editor of The Pointer.
During his career here he was exceedingly active in extra-currieular work. Among his many
affiliations were memberships in
the following organizations : Phi
SigJma Epsilon fraternity, Bloc,
'' S '' club, Margaret Ashmun arid
Sigma Tau 'Delta. To him 'goes
the distinction of 'being one of the
founders of Bloc honorary, and
<>f •b eing its first president.
Last spring he was awarded
the Phi Sigma Epsilon .plaque as

by a faculty committee of five, to

school.
"Burt", as he is familiarly called, is employed in the advertising
department of \V orzalla Publishing Company of this city.
The marriage is the culmination
of· a romance which started while
both were students at Central
State.
The Pointer wishes to extend to
yon, Mr. and Mrs. Hotvedt, its
sincere cong-ratulations, and to
wish you a long and happy married life.
NELSON HALL
We are glad to report that the
lost article advertised last week
has been returned in good shape.
Miss Dorothy Nelson, who is ill
with s•carlet fever, has been sent
home for six weeks. Her roommate, Lillian Holt, will also remain at home for ten days.
Several new girls have taken
np residence in the -dorm for the
second semester.
What has happened to the familiar whistled strains of ''Sweet
Adeline" which sounded so cheerily in the halls?
A Valentine Tea was given by
the Y. W. C. A. in the reception
room of the dormitory last •Saturday afternoon, at which the ladies
of the faculty and <Jollege were
guests. Next Thursday evening,
February 15, a particularly interesting program will be given at

to speak. Everyone is welcome
to attend.
Greek Council Elects
Geo. Maurer Chairman
The Greek Council, representatives of all Greek letter social
organizations on the campus, met
last Tuesday afternoon.
George Maurer, of Phi Sigma
Epsilon fraternity, was chosen
president of the order for the ensuing semester.
.
One .of the most important
actions taken at that time, and one
that will be of special interest to
prospective pledges,
was the
lengthening of the pledge period
from four to five weeks.
Rushing of pledges formally begins next Tuesday, February 20,
and ends Thursday of the following week, March 1. Pledging begins Tuesday, March 6.

"Chapped Skin Arrested!" ... "Girl
Condemned to Loneliness Because of
Imperfect Complexion''.. .
''·wrong
Makeup Ruins Evening''. If I had a
beauty newspaper, as you have your
own college ue·wspapers, these are the
headlines I would carry. But this is
more than news! It may also be the beginning of a new interest and a new
method of acquiring 1beauty for those
who tl ink their problem is entirely
stl·ange.
Truly, Beauty prol.Jlcms are ever old
- yet always new. There 1s always a
solution for your particular problem,
therefore. But the problem itself is peculiarly your own.
For example, in the case of chapped
skin - which many of us take as a
matter of course at this time of the year
- the solution is very simple. Just use
a youthifying foundation cream before
you go out and face the wintry breezes.
Use a rich pa·steurized cleansing cream
after expo·sure, foHwed by a skin toning
lotion. 'rhen your face will remain soft
and clear, and these months will help
you on the road to new beauty instead
of holding you back.
As for a poor complexion many
girls are so self-conscious about it that
they try to ignore it! Naturally when
the skin is left to its own devices it
becomes worse and worse. Thm·e are
scientific reasons why won should get
rid of imperfections just as soon as they
appear - and the most insistent reason
is this: they will keep appearing in the
same place unles.s you get rid of them
thoroughly.
In general a poor complexion needs
thorough cleansing with a gentle, efficient wash or pore paste. This should
be supplemented by using a good acne
cream every night, and a flattering
snow lotion during the day to soothe
and conceal blemishes. More advanced
conditions require special trea tme11 t,
which I'll he glad to tell you about, if
you write describing your skin problem.
But no matter how had it is, remember
that othllrs have attained a ·beautiful
skin in spite of the same handicap and you can, too!
My last headline about wrong
makeup should never need to be
printed. But unfortunately, many girls
lack the necessary finesse in using cosmetics that m:uks the .gophisticatecl
woman. And often too, cheap cosmetics
which look all right when they are first
applied, become more ob,·ious as time
goes on. Let me help you on makeup so
that you can exercise yom· own good
judgment in choosing the right shades
and a•pplying them eorrettly.
