.
Recently the United States government advanced a large loan to the
Chiang Kai-shek government of China to carry on the fight against Japanese aggression. Undoubtedly this action was taken because China was
agreed to be "a good risk" also.
To any level-headed American these loans mean that our government
is willing to take a "long chance" as it has done so often in the past, and
llope that it may be paid back. Our experience with the British during the
first war and the years that followed ought to be evidence enough of their
unfairness in meeting their financial obligations. The flat refusals given
our government in reply to pleas for payment of the World War No. 1
debt along with the insults which went with them is proof enough of the
false sincerity of the British government. They have always used diplomacy
to gain their ends, and the effort now to gain a "touch" is certainly no
different. This writer thinks that this might be a good time for our government to show a little common sense and apply the same kind of self-interest that Great Britain has found so profitable in her foreign relations.

Our new assistant coach, physical educa,tion instructor ,and intramural director,
Mr. Charles Heyer, not only has plenty of
ideas for the athletic end of the Physical
Well-being program, but is putting them
into effect as rapidly as possible. His
purpose is to include all the men possible
in a program of sports and leisure time
recreation. Whereas in the past athletics
h~s been fairly well confined to varisity
squads, now everyone may take part in
one or the other of the two new intramural "fraternity" and . "independent"
leagues and play football, basketball, softball, bowling, tennis, golf, badminton,
ping pong, and horseshoes. A point system has been devised whereby teams entering, not forfeiting, and winning may
compete for a supremacy. In addition to
these, Mr. Heyer intends to promote
other leisure activities, possibly developing mixed group recreation to include
volleyball and ping pong.

A Letter To Santa Claus
by Margaret Engelman
1
At sweet sixteen I first began to ask you, Santa, for a man.
At seventeen, you may recall, I wanted someone strong and tall,
The Christmas when I reached eighteen ·I fancied someone hard and lean.
And then at nineteen I was sure I'd fall for someone more mature,
At twehty I still thought I'd find romance in someone with a mind.
I retrogressed at twenty-one and found the college boys most fun.
My viewpoint changed at twenty-two : I longed for someone to be true.
I brok9 my heart at twenty-three, and asked for someone kind to me.
Then begged at blase twenty-four for anyone who wouldn't bore
Now, Santa, that I'm twenty-five just send me someone who's alive!
Jim Bagnell came to the Pointer office this week arrayed in his finery-he explainedl when asked-'Tm having a date next week and I dressed up now so that
by the time of the big event I'll feel at home in a suit!"
Then there's that story on perseverance and stick-to-itiveness that we've heard
recently. A farmer placed the milk from his evening chores in a large milk can and
set it in the stream which wound its way through the fields. Quite by accident two
very adventurous frogs found themselves struggling in the milk. One frog, exasperated[ at the futility of his efforts, gave up the struggle to remain afloat and sank
to the J?ottom. The other frog, being of quite a different temperment, determined to
stay aflpat regardless of how long he had to struggle. The next morning the farmer
came tq get his milk and was surprised to find a triumphant frog sitting on a lump
.of butter.

There's a rumor making the rounds that the girls living off the campus will

from Janet Poggemiller.-Ray Warren, that tall basketball flash, proved to be quite

President William C. Hansen addressed
the faculty and students for the first time
at a general assembly Thursday, December 5. President Hansen expressed his appreciation for the reception he had been
given, saying that he felt like the Prodigal Son, in his return to his Alma Mater.
"I hope that I will have the good fortune to remain here longer than the former presidents have," Mr. Hansen said.
In the last four years there have been
four presidents of Central State.
President Hansen also stressed the importance of doing our best, today, and
the inadvisability of "putting things off"
until tomorrow.
The college band under the direction
of Peter J. Michelsen initiated the program, and Mr. C. F. Watson, former acting president, introduced President Hansen.

too." Kay has studied Latin, French and
Spanish. She prefers classical music to
modern swing and likes "good" art. Her
major is English, and at present she is
teaching it in her practice class at the

Receiving Line
President and Mrs. W . . C. Hansen, Regent and Mrs. W.S. Delzell, Mr. and Mrs.
Charles Evans, General Chairman Jack
Vincent and his partner Shirley Fonstad,
and King Torkelson and Queen Tyler
will comprise the receiving line which
will form at nine o'clock.
Marine Theme
Chairman Vincent has announced that
indications show the Ball will be a huge
success. "Due credit must be given to the
committees which have · done a very fine
job in making the arrangements," he said.
The under-the-sea theme of the Ball is
"worked out beautifully," states Marjorie
Jacobs, chairman of the decorations committee, and advance ticket sales show
promise of a large crowd.

dairy industries building, additions to
the chemical and electrical engineering
structures, installation of safety devices,
and minor alterations.
The balance of the increase will be
spent for new laboratory equipment,
maintenance, university extension work,
and agricultural aids.
"What is the use of having a university if we cannot do a good job out there?"
the governor asked.
Referring to the projected building
program, the governor said: ·
"These buildings we are going to
erect must be beautiful, but not extraordinarily beautiful with gingersnap frills.
We want good sewers and copper downspouts. We want buildings that will not
need much exterior maintenance.
"Now let us go forward. Let us have
the best, not the largest, farming, electrical and chemical engineering schools in
the world."
Last week in the "Pointer" there appeared a Goin' Steady List ... It has been
suggested by some and indorsed by some
more that the "Eligible Bachelor List" be
published. And as this is the last month
of Leap Year it will serve to show all of
the Sadie Hawkins's what they have slipped up on during the past eleven months. ·

The Purple and Gold cagers defeated
St. Norberts 48-38 for their second sue. cessive victory last Thursday night in the
P.J. Jacobs High School gymnasium.
Ray Terzynski, freshman guard, led the
Point attack with six baskets and four
free throws for a total of 16 points. Jim
Bagnell scored ten points on three baskets
and four free throws and Ray Warren
poured five buckets and a free throw.
Captain Pete Terzynski had difficulty in
finding the hoop and only scored six
points.
The Kotalmen led throughout the
game and didn't have much difficulty
with the Green Knights. After a ragged
first half the boys displayed a very good
brand of basketball and pulled away
easily.

Coaches Honor
Fritsch, Parr, Otto
Here is the news you have been waiting for, folks! Mixed badminton will
start off with a bang on the first Monday after vacation at 7 :15. And this isn't
just for the ones who know something
about the game. It's for everyone, who is
i.n terested in the least in batting around
the birdies. The fee is the lowly sum of
5 cents a night. We will see you there
then. Write it in your date book.
Yes, here is a statement on our
female bowlers. It seems the faculty
is well represented by Miss Davidoff,
who bowled 172 last time. Not bad!
Mike Blissett came in second with
a 157 and Allice Grube rolled 136.
Congratulations girls.
We have a new topper for our ping
pong ladder. It is none other than June
Wallace, who is certainly an all around
good sport. She challenges any comers
and swings a mean paddle. See if you can
threaten her safety.
Coaches at their annual meeting saw
fit to select eight Stevens Point boys in
their All-Star selections. Naturally, not
all of the boys were given 1st team ratings. Those fellows who did rate that
singular honor were as follows: Ted
Fritsch at the fullback spot; Ted really
was outstanding this year and no one in
the conference even came close to equalling his fine work. ·Roy Otto was picked
as a guard despite the fact that he played
the tackle spot. Roy was one of those
steady performers, always in there playing

a pretty interesting game ... We are very
much in agreement with this as the Wisconsin boys didn't look too impressive in
their game at the Rapids the other night.
. . . . The average age of the Concordia
Collrge basketball team is 18 years of
age. Concordia will furnish the opposition for the Pointers on February 8 .....
The Stout basketball team traveled to
Stevens Point for their recent game in
two taxis. . . What has happened to the
"S" club? .. We can't see any reason why
this organization cari't be the leading
group on the campus. . . It is rumored
that our star quarterback William Carnahan will transfer to Milwaukee State next
semester ... Joe Goodrich is the betting
terror on the campus ... Joe makes bets
on various athletic events and wins 80%
of the time. He won a bet the other day
by rememberin~ the Minnesota-Northwestern football score of 1930 ... Captain
Pete Terzynski has a twin brother who
plays on the Rhinelander city team ...
The Pointers will meet the Rhinelander
quintet on Dec. 20 the night after they
play Stout Institute ... Ted Fritsch was
one of the few college football players
to kick two field goals in a game ... Ted
turned this trick during the homecoming
game with Oshkosh. . . He kicked them
from the 32 yard line and from the 18
yard marker. . . Bill Winsor after bowling a 150 game last Thursday puts out
his chest and says that he will have a 136
average for his three games this coming
Thursday ... The Chicago Bears broke all
existing records when they defeated the
Washington Redskins ror the championship 73-0. . . Indiana will win the Big
Ten basketball championship. . . .Art
Seidel went to Marshfield last week and
bowled a 640 series. . . Their are five

screaming student body and town~people.
I
The Purple and Gold cagers took an
early lead and held it until midway in

substituted freely. The score at ~he time
of the substitution was 17-9 and when
the half ended the margin was cut down
to 19-18.
The first five started the secdnd half
but they· found the Norsemen if?. a different mood. The Luther boys I jumped
into the lead and held it until the last
four minutes of play. They displayed a
very good brand of basketball and looked
very good on fast breaking plays.
Ra)' Warren led the Point attack by
scoring 14 points with four baskets and
two free throws. Ray Terzynski put in
tWo baskets and six free throws and
Captain Pete Terzynski came through
with four baskets. Engvoldstad was high

It t~kes 30 to 40 ground workers to
keep a si4gle pilot in the air, states Edna
H. Rober,s.
"You s~y it is aviation for you," says
Miss Rob:erts. "All right, what kind of
aviation -+- commercial, private, government, Arrhy, Navy or Marine? And having takenl your choice there, decide between the many fields of work within
that choi~e. Go through this outline of
work in tile commercial airline field, for
example, always remembering those 30odd men ~nd women who are at work on
the grounp for every pilot of a plane:
"Mechanic. A fanatic for detail whose
work deals with engines, propellers, tubing, brakes, rigging, controls, or instruments. Ot perhaps he works in the machine shop, the radio department, or the
sheet metal department. Whatever his
work, he's a specialist at it.
"Operations, communications and meteorology I departments. Operations men
supervise , preperation for a flight, and
have complete charge of the plane while
it is in the air. Radio operators are skilled
at both voice and code communication.
Meteorolqgists have invented' a new
science, aeronautical meteorology.
"Business department. Workers are in
reservations service, sales, purchasing, legal · serviqe, public relations and personI

"Steward department. Where the hostesses and stewards draw pay. Perform
services for passengers-serve meals, supervise sleeper accommodations. Also,
there are commissary and clerical jobs in
the steward department.
"Some of the other jobs in aviation are
held by airport managers, field superintendents, airplane salesmen. aviationschool teachers, aviation insurance men,
aviation writers and editors, and research
workers.
"Then, too, there's· the industry's
largest single field --:-- aeronautical engineering and manufacturing."
