Three years ago Miss Colman's Primaries sponsored a Parents' Day for their departments; this year thi; .project evolved intC) an all-school affair. A splendid morning assembly program has been arranged in honor of our parents, speciaJ. efforts to form their friendship are being .planned - everything appears set for a day our guests will long remember. The combined efforts C)f every student and faculty member are required to put over the project. .v~ e are proud of our parents and we appreciate their sacrifice; we can ~epay their inter:est in our welfare and our sehool by ·bringing them wtth us the mo:~ng of ~he 16th. Let's plan to show them around the oohool bmldmgs, let s arrange to have them meet our faculty members, let's introduce them to our fello•w students and frienoo; let's show that the friendly spirit for which this oohool has become famous is contagious- and when the setting sun brings the day to a close new adherents will be found and new friendships fol'lllled.

Altogether, the propects seem all to.o favorable for one of those upsets which have ·dotted the football landscape of these here foTty eight states a!ll too plentifully lately. Platteville's games have all been stu1bhornly contested, tWio •of their three defeats occuring in the -closing minutes of 'P'lay. In analyzing the two teams it will be remembered that Platteville has been scoring one or two touchdowns each game, which would seem to show a better offensive re~ord than that •Of the Stevens Point aggregati.on, whose scores have seemed to indicate that the ''best offense is a good defense." Playing Safe? It has been so long ·since coiJ.lege fans have haJd the opportunity of seeing what the Pointers oan d'o on dry field that this must remain ·conjectural until after the c.oming fracas. So far Kotal 's men have been ·content, in the face of advel'se weather, to score and play safe, whitc h is probably the best procedure when one considers that the games count only as won ·o r lost in the percentage columnsuch figures 1do not ta:ke the margin of v1ctory into ·consideration.
