At Long Last ••••• With the publication of this, the last issue of the 1945-46 Pointer, we come to the end. of a school year in which we have seen CSTC change from'a war-time to a peace-time status. With increased enrollment and resumption of many extra-curricular activities, the school presents an entirely different picture this spring 'than it did last September when, in fear and trembling, we held our first Pointer meeting. News is no longer at a premium; in fact, our weekly fear now is that there will be too much news. The phrase, "Kill that story-there isn't room for it", has become common parlance in the Pointer office. It has been an' inte~esting year in wh-ich to publish the Pointer. Now that the last of our Monday evening sessions has come and gone, we realize that we are going to miss the cheerful informality of those gatherings. ·We should like to take this opportunity to· thank the members of the staff for their cooperative efforts throughout the year. We also wish to express our appreciation to Miss Bertha Glennon, our faculty adviser and official "blue-pencil-er," to President William C. Hansen, whose help has been invaluable, and to the faculty. To Mary Juetten, next year's editor, and t.o her staff we extend our best wishes for success. We hope that they enjoy publishing the 1946-47 Pointer as much as we have enjoyed publishing it this year. Dor111 Doin ~s by Marion As another school year draws to a close with a climax of spring activities, the girls of Nelson Hall think back on their year at the Dorm and decide that this summer they will miss every bit of it from 8 o'clock classes to the baby robins on second floor's fire escape. "For who", they say, "has a life quite like Nelson Hall's?" ... "It's an education in itself" ... "I wouldn't live any other place" . . . "It's been fun, and · I wouldn't have missed it for anything!" The past month at Nelson Hall has been gay with special dinners. The annual Mother and Daughter banquet was followed by birthday dinners for April and May and June, July, and August. Girls having birthdays in April were Kathleen Berg, Anita Lang, Lucille Vaughan, Doris Ockerlander, Mary Lou Hutchins and Jeanne Cone. Celebrating in May were Gerry Roberts, Anne Huntzicker, Dolores Cowles, Pat Thorpe, Helen Trewartha, Caroline Krogness, Dolores Jelinek, Kathryn Peterson and Jean Smith.

She looks upon the familiar scene that has been workshop, home and playground to her for the past four years. The ivy climbing up brick walls, the graceful trees lining the walk, the green campus, the gray squirrels frisking about, and the groups of happy students migrating between the Eat Shop and the college-all are seemingly the same as when she entered as a freshman four years before. · · The senior thinks back to her years at college. Her first day at CSTC, with its numerous forms to fill out, was an impressive introduction to the days that followed; yet it was very pleasant to see with the smiling faces of many helpful older students and instructors who became fast friends as the years went by. As a freshman, our senior was introduced to the delightful aromas of the chemistry laboratory, the mysteries of French conjugation, and the invigoration of army setting-up exercises in her gym course. As a sophomore her classes were small, and composed mostly of girl~. Most of her male classmates of the year before were then in the service of our country. As a junior, she moved into the unique institution of college life known generally as the girls dormitory, and more specifically as Nelson Hall. Perhaps one who has never lived in a dormitory does not experience the full meaning of college life. The close, lasting friendships, the co-operation, the sharing of joys and sorrows, thoughts, and activities, and the feeling of Home are not to be found so immeasurably by the college student outside the dormitory. Upon enrolling for her last year, the senior entered upon her program a course innocently entitled "Practice". The Training school, which had remained in the background during her first three years of college, became the integral point in her daily program. At last the senior understood why it is called "The Heart of the Teachers College." The weeks have flown by, and the senior is contemplating graduation. It will be a Commencement for her from the standpoint of her career, but a graduation from that phase of life which has been most instrufllental in making her HER. To Present Program Under the direction of Jane Miller, a group of students w~ll present a talent program at an assembly on Thursday morning at 10 o'clock. The program is to be an informal one, with the scene a living room. Those taking part are Shirley Brown, Laverne Haskins, Alice Hetzer, Bob Westenberger, Mickey Rybicke and Margaret Robe.t!ts. Plans for the assembly, which is the last one of the school year, were made by the Student Council assembly committee composed of Ray Bartkowiak, chairman, Ma~ion Hemmrich, Barbara Felker and Alice Hetzer. mE POINTER May .22, 1946 Senior Placements Are Announced As the close of the 1945-46 school year draws near, attention is turned to the chief interest of the Seniorscontracts.

Art Swenson willingly loaned them out last Christmas to a certain sportsloving femme, and it seems he has just now caught up with her,-that is, caught up with the skis. ( ?) Moving on, we come to an item about Ray Bartkowiak concerninohis ability in mob psychology. A~ the award assembly we saw one blond loyely listening dreamily to the emcee. Of course the combination of red hair and blue eyes is irresistible. We heard one cynical male commenting on his accomplishments for the year. It went something like this: "Anyway, it's better to be broke ·than never to have loved at all." Does that sound familiar to anyone? We move on to the opening of the Casino last weekend, and find it's almost impossible to tell ALL that happened. However, - one expresSIOn caught on with some of the Chi Delt actives who had stationed themselves in a cottage near the Casino; namely, "But honey, how was I to know you'd be coming out here!" Again we ask ourselves, where have we heard that before? From an unimpeachable source we hear that Chuck Larsen is spending his time commuting between Amherst Junction and the Emerson school! Couid it be he's doing a little teaching on the side? We can't predict Chuck. A most unusual group originated in the back room of the POINTER office last Monday night. 1\fter comparing incidents, feelings, conclusions, and resolutions, they succumbed to the old name of "Lonely Hearts club." As one of the three said, "I didn't realize how right we were when we predicted a bumpy road for love this spring." Ah, yes, as we said, so much unfinished business. And so on to the prom. We know for a fact that 'Cap" and Janet Dupre have agreed on the time and the place; and so have Harv Abrahamson and Mary Noble. (Pause for your comments.) 'v:'e advise you to keep your eye peeled for these combinations, namely, Pat Snow and Bob Kujawa, and Rob Lee and June Shannon. That brings us up to the present, where we find Spec Lewis in a bit of a situation himself. Bet .he's the only lad in school who has had four women mad at him at the sa,me time. No comment on his tactics. The Pointer staff is beaming en masse these days because of an invitation they received to the wedding of Vi Lindow and Rudy Horn. Vi was the Pointer news editor the first semester this year. She will be married at Chili on Friday afternoon, May 31, at 3 o'clo<;;k. And so the year ends. We've followed the romances up t~ engagements and marriages; in fact we've even seen Mr. Michelsen through to the proud grandpa stage. So with no warning as to the promises , and pitfalls the summer holds, we leave you all for this year. See you next fall. Adios. -t> Visit Our Store-Try Our Fountain Specialties S ODAS ... ~ ..

What? Why, the coffee line at Klink's of course. One of· the first daily rushes to establish itself when Klink's first opened its doors was the breakfast rush. Late sleeping students have taken advantage of Klink's coffee bar and now make their 8 o'clock classes and enjoy ~reakfast. Let _us suppose you have JUSt left your f1rst morning class and are heading Klink-ward for some refreshing coffee. As you open the door a glittering cigarette machine greets you. (Even the non-smokers welcome it, for the large mirror on the front affords all a view of the~r appearance.) Pushing your way through the usual mob around the counter (remember, it's 9 o'clock) you head for the coffee bar to equip yourself with coffee and roll. And now to find a seat. For real privacy from 'booth-hoppers', a booth in the corner serves ~he purpose; those deep side walls have hidden many a blossoming romance. If you must keep your crowd of ten intact, a larger built-in table i~ the rear will hold all. Anyway, fmally you are situated with coffee roll, and friends. ' Apart from this typical morning at Klink's are other bits of coke-bar melodrama. Mrs. Klink tells us that when a glass is broken, the ·culprit usually leaves the remnants and a nickel on the counter, whith is not always . the procedure at student hangouts. The phone, of col!lrse, is in use most of the time. (What! don't you know the number?) All this time we've neglected to mention the scholastic effprts that go on at Klink's. Usually, in a back ~ooth some one is reading a book. (Remember, we said it'S a bit more quiet there.) Elsewhere, you can find everything from .dramatic readings t'o political debates going on. All in all, what more can we say than, "h's a gay life one leads at Klink's". And if you haven't tried it yet, well, what are you waiting for?!!
