Former Service Men Relate Experiences
Among the new students who enrolled at CSTC the second semester
are a few former service men who
have seen overseas service. Behind
that simple statement are stories of
experiences that are both exciting
ano interesting. Some of these stories
you will hear this week.
Joseph Kalina, a senior at the college, has returned · from 27 months
in the Army Signal Corps, 18 months
of which were spent overseas. Joe
landed in the romantic city of Casablanca on May 13; 1943. (The adjective romantic doesn't imply all
the glamour of the East that travel
folders would have us believe.)
From Casablanca, the men were
convoyed by truck to Bizerte. The
action the boys saw there consisted
mainly of coping with German suicide paratroopers.
The outfit came into Naples four
days after the Germans had left. The
men had been in Italy about thirty
minutes, when they had tea with
some British near the gun emplacements -on the shore.

port of Naples were air-raid shel-

Chit 'n Chat
by Marse
Well, the ' rain ·,and snow both
have been falling out of the sky
lately . and last Sunday wasn't too
pleasant a day for most people.
Again we say, that Spring is just
around the corner. Ha Ha!
Elizabeth McLaughlin was a, lucky
little girl last week-end. Sure
enough, her man was here and a
paratrooper at that. He really appreciated the living room at the dorm
and .said it had all the comforts of
home. (Or should we say that he
acted as if it were comfortable??)
Janet Good received some pictures
of her man last week. From all reports they are really super. He must
have been thinking of Janet when
the pictures were taken because he
looked so dreamy eyed.
There's no place like '·' Holm," is
there, Schlender?
Today is the birthday of one of
our faculty members. Happy birthday, Miss Colman, happy birtliday
to you. The second grade of the
training school called on Miss Colman this morning and presented her
with handmade birthday cards.
. Gert Heike was keeping a secret
from us by not telling us of the distinguished valentine that she received. But tough luck, Gertie, we found
out about it and about your reactions. It was supposedly sent by two
men about school but after much inevstfgation, Gertie discovered that it
was all a joke, and Lucille Vaughan
and Edythe Ofstun seemed to be the
culprits.
"Nice going, Pointers," is our
praise for the .Stevens Point High
School team. By beating Merrill
Saturday night, they have won the
conference championship. Two years
in a row is pretty much okay. The
numerous Point high · school alumni
at CSTC. feel very proud.
Ginny Grassl, ousiness manager
Qn last year's POINTER, who is now
attending the University of Wisconsin, wrote a letter recently to
POINTER'S editor and business
.manage~; and to the "censor" (that's
Miss Bertha Glennon). Writing in
her usual breezy style, Ginny said:
"I practice teach out at Wisconsin
High and had eleven spectators today-professors, educators, etc., but
strange to say, they didn't bother me
at all. The kids out there are regular
'brains' so one really has to be on his
toes, and I do study-believe it or
not. I taught the vitamins and minerals, digestion, assimiation, and absorption this week.
"I like it very much down here,
although I miss lots of things back
there, especially Pointer. I'm glad
I came, however."
Mary Murphy spent the week-end
at the dorm. Because her family is
moving to Illinois, she quit school at
the semester. She said that she is
going to miss the old place.
Girls at the Dorm are knitting
steadily-which reminds us of the
little moron "'ho knit three socks for
her boyfriend in the army because he
had grown another foot.
There have been quite a lot of
happy girls at the dorm these past
few days, but one of the happiest
was Jeanie Glenzer when she heard
that her husband was in the states.
"No more school for me," said this
little girl.
Did you see the lovely bracelet
Jeanie has been wearing? It's fashioned from a pair of gold Naval Air
Corps wings bent to fit the curve of
her wrist with a gold chain to complete it. Jeanie designed this gadget
herself.
After all these weeks of wondering, Alice · Klake's man is really
coming. He should be here today and
we do hope that it isn't a false alarm
this time.
President and Mrs. William C.
Hansen recently announced the engagement of their daughter, Ann, an
army nurse now in Naples, Italy, to
Lt. P. A. Buck, of Minneapolis,
Minnesota. The Milwaukee Journal,
in reporting the engagement, stated
that Mr. Hansen ts the former president of CSTC. It was nice having you
here, President Hansen. Come back
to vi~it us sometime!
-Martha Halama has signed a teaching contract at Galesville. "At last
the time· has · come," she declared.
Martha is the first senior to sign a
contract, with Roger MaCallum being a close second, for he signed a
contract last Monday. Roger will
teach at Manawa.
Mrs. Charles Shikowski, the former Harriet Grant, who attended
CSTC from 1941-1943, recently gave
birth to twins, a boy and a girl.

That sad melody you hear floating
about the POINTER office is probbl

a Happy One", for, alas, a happy one
it is not.
The editor of a ne~spaper, as protrayed by the movies, is usually engaged in tracking down criminals
while a cigarette perpetually hangs
from the corner of his mouth. The
sober truth,· however, finds the editor engaged in tracking 'down news,
while that thing hanging from his
mouth is usually his tongue!
Many and varied are the things
we, as a POINTER editor, remember as we look back over a checkered
career of one semester. We still
writhe when we remember the time
we admonished everyone (in large
black letters) to "Remeber to.
vote". The cold sweat stands on our
brow when we think how· the
POINTER almost said that the social
committee served "spiked cider" (instead of "spiced") at the Christmas
Cheer. Ancf there was the occasion
we moved heaven and earth and
made a special trip to the printer's
to get a story in the POINTER
about a prospective Talk of the Hour
club speaker, only to have another
speaker appear in his place. Ah yes,
these are the times that try editors'
souls.
One of our humiliating incidents
(or accidents) is the time we ofn CSTC' ·
f d d
en e one 01;
s tmportant activities by not giving it any publicity,
and then added insult to injury by
making a mistake in the story we did
print about it. Our pride, however,
is somewhat soothed when we remember how the POINTER once
saved the day by mentioning a certain person in a POINTER news
story when he had been neglected in
other quarters.
Pfc Chet Caskey, somewhere in
New Guinea, wrote in a recent letter, "We, rather I, got the Pointers
last night and surely want you to
know we boys appreciate· getting
them, and we suref,y enJ· oyed those \
Pointers."
'
Lt. Robert Trowbridge, CSTC
alumnus, visited here last week. He
just got his commission and is going
to report at an eastern camp. Lt.
Trowbridge was accompanied by his
wife, the former Ardis Mcintee,
who graduated from CSTC in 1943.
Helen Madden recently had the
pleasure of speaking over the telephone to her sister, Lt. Winifred
Madden, United States Army Nurse,
who has recently arrived at Hamilton Field, California, after having
been liberated from the Santo Tomas
prison camp near Manila. Lt. Madden served on Corregidor before she
was taken prisoner. \'Oh, it was a
beautiful sight, tho~ planes," dedared Lt. Madden in describing her
feelings at the coming of the Americans to Manila.
Major Kenneth D. Thompson, son
of Victor E. Thompson, is pilot of a
Superfortress that has flown numet~
ous missions against the Japanese.
Major Thompson has been in India
for about a year. He has received
numerous awards, including the. Air
medal and a medal presented by the
Chinese government for having
flown in the first raid on Tokyo
since General Doolittle's famous attack. Major Thompson was pictured
in the Stevens Point Daily Journal
recently in company with his crew.
Mae Hoffman, who graduated
from CSTC last year, was sworn into
the army and is now a WAC pri-vate. She is to report at Fort Oglethorpe, Georgia, on March 2. Prior
to her enlistment Mae was teaching
at Tigerton.
