Nelson Hall Girls
Get Honor Points
A ' story one often hears is that
girls wl{lo live in Nelson Hall never
get a c?ance to do their schoolwork
because they spend so much time
gossiping in their rooms. Be that as
it may, here are a few facts about the
grades and averages of the girls living in Nelson Hall during the first
semester of this school year. Thanks
to Mrs. Pfiffner, our Dean of W'omen, we know these are authentic
The honor point · average for the
entire Clormitory was 1.89. Third
floor glrls led with a 2.05 average,
while sbcond floor ran a close second, ea~ning a 1.86. The first floor
girls caine in last with a 1.69.
· Then the average of the waitresses
was computed. It was an even 2
point, .Jhile the kitchen girls earned
a 2.2. The desk girls were slightly
lower in rank with a 2.10.
Next, Mrs. Pfiffner computed the
averages according to classes. The
Juniors led with an honor point
average of 2.27. Seniors were next
in line jwith Freshmen and Sophomores following. The averages of
these classes were 2.12, 1.83, and
1.81 resP-ectively.
The girls' grades ranged from .53
to 3.0. There were four girls, Loretta
Gotchy, Fern Schneider, Janet Good,
and Mary Bubanovith, with a 3.0
average. Four more people, Kathryn
Bentz, Vivian Kellogg, Pat Maguire,
and Ela~ne Teske, earned a 2.8 honor
point. r here were forty-nine girls
with a 2.0 or better honor point
average. Now who started that story
about Nelson Hall girls not having
time fo~ schoolwork?
EDDIE L. KOTAI.

Girl's Glee Club And
Orchestra To Present
Sacred Easter Concert
Under the direction of Peter J.
Michelsen, members of the Girls'
Glee Club and the college orchestra
will present the first Easter concert
Wednesday evening, April 1st, in
the auditorium, this is to be an annual event in the future. The theme
of the concert will be sacred, and
it is anticipated that this will prove
to be as successful as the Christmas
concert.
Charlotte Reichel, president of
the Glee Club has appointed the
following committees in charge of
arrangements: Gertrude Rondeau,
general chairman, advertising, Patricia Carver, and Mary Louise Butter; tickets and programs, Dorothy
Jane Raddant, and Thelma Parrott;
stage, Carol Ockerlander, Marion
Alberg, Eunice Milbauer, Harriet
Coey, Olive Crawford, and Lelah

Training school students were
given a chance to display their dramatic talents last Friday evening
when three one-act plays were presented in the college auditorium.
The plays, "Calling All Cars",
"Fiddler in the Forest", and "The

able direction of Alice Wagner and

And it seemed such a good idea
to hold them every week and get
out of school a whole month earlier.
Gosh, are we glad that petition
didn't go through! What am I talking about? Saturday classes, of
course!
Most of us dragged ourselves into
our first classes about 8 :20, looking
slightly sleepy, but with a "do-ordie" expression on our faces (keep
·awake or die in the attempt). The
majority of us did manage to keep
awake; that is, all except Torkelson
who always sleeps in Biology class,
anyway!
I noticed that some of our professors didn't look too wide awake
either. Let's see, was it Friday or
Saturday that a certain Chemistry
teacher forgot the time of his 8:15
class, and poor Mr. Steiner will
have to change the name of his club.
Instead of "T.G.I.F." (Thank· God
It's Friday!), it'll have to be
"T.G.I.S." And all because of
Saturday classes.
Yes, Saturday was Monday-for
the _first ~ime in history-and a
"blue· Monday" at that. B-ut as one
girl put it, "At least that's one day
of the eighteenth week of the semester that we'll never have to live
through again."

WJLL THEY RETURN TO GRADUATE?
The male enrollment took a decided drop this semester. It takes no
great imagination to realize where these men went. Many of them have
entered military service. "Will they return to graduate?" is the question
college authorities throughout the nation are asking as .students leave their
campuses to become soldiers.
The challenge of this question is being met positively by the University of Iowa with a far-reaching plan which we should like to relay to the
student body 'for its consideration. Perhaps from this plan can be worked
out a plan whereby CSTC undergraduates may be aided in their quest for
college degrees after war service to their country.
The program at Iowa calls for gifts of not over $200 to each retur.ningstudent in need of assistance. The money is to come from a fund made
up of voluntary contributions of 10c a week from each student still on the
campus. Administered by the Committee on Student Aid and audited by
the university treasurer's office, the fund will be invested in U.S. Defense
Bonds.
Require~ents for the $200 gifts to returning students include at
least six months' service in a U.S. armed force, attendance at the Universitv of Iowa from October, 1940 to the time of induction or enlistment, and
t:naintenance of graduating grades during this time. Collection of the fund
is being carried out on a group basis. Presidents of sororities and fraternities, leaders of dormitories and such groups are responsible for collecting their quotas. .
.
We do not offer this plan to be considered as it stands. Perhaps some
changes would make it more practical at CSTC. But it does give the students who remain on the campus the opportunity to aid their fellow students in return for what they are doing and will continue to do until complete victory is achie:ved. T~rough no fault of ~heir own, theJ have been
taken away from thefr stud1es. When the war IS over they ~ill have the
mcentive to take up from where they left off. Those who wanted education will be brought back and the shock of rehabilitation will be cushioned.
We think the plan is worth some constructive thought and we
earnestly solicit student comment.

period after the occupation I of Austria by Hitler's f2_rces. He ~ad been
active in the Leage of Nations

the intellectuals who survived the
hardships of the camps rather than
the strong, athletic prisonets, indicating that the strength of opposition is in the spirit, not th(j body.

Central State defeated Milwaukee
Teachers 44-43 in a game filled with
speed, deception and showmanship
on the part of the coaches last
Saturday night before an overflowing crowd in the P.J. Jacobs Gymnasium.
The game was one of the hardest
fought ever played here and was
decided after the final gun had
sounded.
Henry Pospychala was fouled
while in the act of shooting a fraction of a second before the game
ended with the score tied 43-43 and
was awarded two shots. A three
minute dispute followed with Coach
Guy Penwell of Milwaukee arguing
that the foul wos committed after
the gun had sounded. The officials
over-ruled his argument and Pospychala took his place on the free
throw line. With everybody standing tense, Henry calmly took aim
and let go his first shot. The
ball hit the rim, rolled around and
dropped out. The crowd survived
the disaster and moaned. Henry
stepped out of the circle walked
around and then took his place
again. This time half of the crowd
was watching him and half was gazing somewhere else waiting to hear
the result by the response. The rest
is history, for Pospychala sent the
ball neatly through the net for the
winning margin.
This was the Pointers fifth
straight conference victory and increased their league leadership to
two full games over Milwaukee who

Scoring honors went to Buehler
who poured in six field goals and
