SOate Refugees From A 'Post
The Staff
OHice Billltoard, Or

By Ann Stoleson
The time has come to find out just
who is responsible for this journalistic masterpiece. As you will find
out, no one person can be blamed, for
a large group concocts the Pointer.
Everyone knows the Editor, Earl
Grow. He's the tall lanky fellow you
see sitting behind the desk in the
Pointer Office. A Junior in Secondary, Earl hails from Shawano. He
is a member of Gamma Delta and is
President of Sigma Phi Epsilon.
Working with Earl is Marge Gerhard, News and Feature Editor.
Marge is a second semester senior
from Wausau. She belongs to Round
Table, professional organization for
students in the Intermediate Division, the Iris, and College Theater.
Margie is the TKE candidate for
Homecoming queen. (In case you're
interested in skiing, Margie has
formed ski clubs for the past two
years.)
Since Marge will graduate at the
end of the semester, Betty Holstein
has been appointed assistant news
editor and will take Marge's place
in February. Betty is from Stevens
Point. She is a sophomore in L and
S and is a member of Omega Mu
Chi.
Then there are all the people that
go around askiRg millions of questions - namely the reporters. They
are: Sharon Zentner, New Glarus;
Lenore Gaylord, Nekoosa; Virginia
Bricco, White Lake; Homer Plumb,
Wisconsin Dells; Felisa Borja, Guam; Patricia Sisel, Wisconsin Rapids; Anne Stoleson, Tigerton; Bill
Collins, Mary Braatz, Bob Way and
Pat Scribner, all of Stevens Point;
Bob Hammersmith, Kennan; Shirley
Brendel, Phillips; Donna Witte, Colby; Virjean Drexler, Wausau; Jerry
Foster, Marshfield; Pat Rickel, Independence.
The fellow you see along the side
of the football field working as a
lineman on the chain gang is Carl
Huberty, the Pointer sports editor.
Carl Is a Junior here at school,
majoring in Secondary. You'll see
hlm on the basketball floor and out
running around the track. Working
with Carl are his able assistants
Mary Bartelt, Marathon; Dave Zimmerman, Laona; Ken Wasserman,

"Freshie" Tells Of Her·
Few Days In A Quandary
· By Mary Braatz
Because the revered Pointer editor
has forbidden the use of the first
person "1,'' this story starts in the
following manner. There was once
a certain freshman girl who was asked to state her first impressions of
college life. She replied:
"My first impressions of CSC consisted of three things; rain, 8: 15
classes, and Homer Plumb. The continual sloppy, drippy, icky, WET rain
convinced me that even the weatherman had problems; the 8: 15 classes
proved that my schedule had problems; and Homer Plumb and the Sig
Eps' skit were a sure sign that there
were problems hopping around all
over the place!
"Then there was that schedule arranging - need I say more? If all
my trips between my advisor and
the green blackboard were added up,
they would make Roger Bimnister
look silly. Everyone including President Hansen was working on that
schedule of mine, and the Lost Cause
of the Confederates was no more lost
than I was. My classes closed faster
than the epidermal stomata of a basswood leaf; my registration number
was so far down th"e line you couldn't
see it with a telescope. Somehow, I
managed to make it; I'm a CSC'er
now.
"A lot of other little first impressions kept bobbing up in front of my
green-coated eyes little impressions like the first dance at the
Union. Things like that can leave
their mark on a freshman; it was so
dark you couldn't see anybody, and
nobody came near enoUgh to see anyhow. I can't forget the first test
either; just like high school, only I
WORRIED about this Qne. Oh, and
how about that physical (so help me,
one of the doctors swore by the Hippocratic oath that my left leg was
one half inch, shorter than my
right!). But, after the first few
gloriously mad days, college did a
flip-over and went back to normal.
I flipped, too, flipped right into the
whole swell routine of CSC. As
friend Jackie would say, "It's the
GREATEST!"
ed to Dave Behrendt from Stevens
Point. His title is Composition Editor. Dave is a sophomore in Land S.
He was the freshman representative
in the Student Co).lncil last year arid
is so~homore class treasurer this
year. Working along side of Dave
are his witty assistants Roy Halverson, Eland, and Orville Koepke, Appleton.

The typists slave at the last minute trying to read and get the articles
out on time. Arnold Lenius, Waterto.wn, Barbara Coburn, Rhinelander,
and Darlene Jorgenson, Berlin are the
typists.
Those who re-read the typists'
work are the proofreaders. Janet
Madison, Marshfield, Pat Schultz,
Clintonville, and Sally Rose, Poynette, fill this division.
The Pointer is indebted to James
Kosmicki, Stevens Point, for all the
pictures. You'll see Jim around snapping shots of all the events taking
place at school.
Miss Bertha Glennon, English instructor, is the editorial advisor and
Raymond E. Specht, Geography instructor, is the photographic advisor.
The Business l\lanager is Dave
(head and shoulders) Jersey of Almond. Dave is a Junior in L and S.
]le is a member of Phi Sigma Epsilon
and Mens Glee club. Giving Dave
an able hand are his assistants Dave
Zimmerman, Laona; Nancy Hager,
Wabeno; and Jo McClone, Clintonville.
The circulation department is capably handled by Ara Sergenian, Madison, and his assistant Jo Nowak,
Phillips. The Business Advisor is
Robert T. Anderson of the Geography
department.
Those students desiring to work on
the Pointer will still be considered.
So, if you have any talent for writing, for thinking up flashy headlines, running down ads, or for typing - come into the office and fill
out an application blank. The Pointer can use you!
Notice, Slide Owners!
It has been called to my attention
that several students have interesting sltdes showing scenes in Europe
or the Far East. We could arrange
to have one or two daytime assembly
programs featuring those slides. The
owner could do his own narration.
If you have such slides and would
like to participate in such a showing,
will you please talk to me or leave
a note in my mailbox this week?

Sllew Me The Way To Go Home
No group of people, no matter how large or active, can ever be truly
powerful or effective until they set up some sort of organization. It is
with this In mind that we propose an organization of CSC's most active
populous, The Suitcase Students. In some ways it is strange that The
Suitcase Students haven't thought of this themselves. The possibilities of
such an organization are limitless.
First of all we need a name. The SCS (Suitcase Students) of CSC is
one possibility, or The Pack and Run Club, Weekend Worriers, or the just
plain Happy Wanderers are worth considering.
Who would be eligible to join this elite group? Well, one suggestion
Is that those who can prove that they have run for home every weekend
so far· this year be made charter members. Other students who have, in
isolated instances, been found guilty of staying down here on occasions
could still be eligible to pledge if they prove that they are sincere. A very
constructive pledge program could be carried out with such useful activities being taught as proper suitcase packing, learning how to read bus
schedules, and how to cut classes on Friday in order to get a faster start
home. Special recognition could be given those who perform some truly
meritorious work such as missing the Homecoming weekend. Such a devoted
act would be rewarded with a miniature suitcase pin done up in Purple
and Gold apron strings.
The whole thing could be put eventually on a nationwide basis and
we're confident that, with such a record as having only 15 men out of 82
remaining at Delzell Hall two weekends ago, Central State could easily
be made national headquarters.
Last but not least, we even propose that our Suitcase Students compose
some sort of anthem to supplant the "Purple and Gold." How about something like "I'll take the high road' and you take the low road, and I'll be
home to Mamma before you?"
, Please Suitcase Students, seriously consider our suggestions. Such a
talent as yours should not be wasted. ¥ours is a modern Odyssey. Bon
Voyage!

FAMILIAR FACES .......... J
DAVE SILVERMAN
By Mary Lou Bloczynski
"This is 'the big redhead' signing
off for now. Tune in tomorrow, same
time, same station, to 'Big Dave's
Special.' These are familiar words to
those in the Stevens Point area who
tune in WSPT. The fellow who says
them is none other than Dave Silverman, a senior in L and S, who has
worked for the local radio station
for the past three years. He is primarily an announcer but has done
everything, as he puts it, including
"picking postage stamps off the
floor."
The tall, lanky lad (he's six feet,
five and a half inches tall and weighs
about 170 pounds) is from Stevens
Point. Some of his numerous campus
activities include: Phi Sigma Epsilon,
Alpha Gamma, Alpha Psi Omega, College Theater, and Radio Workshop.
He also is one of the projectionists
at the new library theater and is
the field announcer for the college
football games at Goerke Field.
Big Dave is also kept busy doing
"MC" work for various programs. In
fact, he will be acting as MC for the
Homecoming assembly of which he is
also chairman. When asked his
secret of success at MC work, he
characteristically replied, "Probably
it is because I enjoy it. Can't be any
other reason, for I never know what
I'm going to do until I get on stage."
Dave's biggest problem is getting
clothes to fit. When he walks into
a store, the salesmen don't ask to
help him, they just start to laugh out
loud. Of course, 'it's no wonder, for
those guys know their business and
can tell Dave is one of those men
who want 37" sleeves in shirts and
their stock only goes to 36". One
of the biggest thrills in Dave's life
occurred recently when he walked
into a store and actually found a suit
that fit. Of course he had to go to
a Milwaukee factory store to find it,
VOL. IV
but even then it doesn't happen very
often.
The big redhead says he has a
million pet peeves, some not printable and the others not too important. Something that really bothers
him is an announcer who says "progrum" instead of "program." Dave
admits he, too, makes mistakes occasionally but . . . ! Something else
that irks him is a vocalist who yells
at the top of his lungs. Then Dave
usually replies, "This is music??!"
Getting off on music - Dave says
he questions whether the so-called
popular music is really music. He
feels that "some of this 'noise' that
is dropped on the American public
cannot be considered 'music'." Not
that Dave is strictly "long-hair!" He
isn't an opera fan but can enjoy
operas, likes semi-classical but pre~
fers classical. Dave also likes a good
band instrumental perhaps done
in the 30's or early 4Q's by Goodman, Miller, or the Dorseys or
perhaps something by the presently
popular Richard Hayman, Ray Anthony or Ralph Flannagan.
Dave says that currently his plans
for after graduation turn in only one
direction work for Uncle Sam.
After that he probably will do postgraduate work in television production at the University of Wisconsin.
CLEO GILBERT
By Margie Gerhard
"It's just a small place up in
Eskimo country, but it's there, really,
even though most maps don't have
it," explains our sweet miss who is
not only a familiar face for this issue, but has been featured in many
activities the past three years here.
Of course, what she is talking about
is her hometown of Highbridge.
(yup, that's just what we said!)
It isn't that she doesn't like or feel
loyal to her hometown, but Cleo
hasn't been home too often in the
past three-plus years, since she made
her first trek to this campus. "It
was a lucky thing I lived so far from
here then, for it would only have
taken the offer of a ride to carry me
away from here those first three
weeks when I was a freshman," she
recalled. That was one lucky break
for CSC, for Cleo has done much in
the past few short years to make her
presence deeply appreciated and enjoyed.
Just to cite a few examples of her
·accomplishments here (come on,
Cleo, don't blush, it's true!) are such
honors as being former Freshman
Class secretary and WSGA treasurer
and Primary Council officer. She also belongs to Wesley, Girl's Glee

THE POINTER
Varied Impressions Of Germany
Revealed By Two esc Students
by Ginny Bricco
"
Stranded for seven years! Is
that what you call it, Jim? Jim
Fleig, a freshman from Ashland,
spent seven years as a true German
over in Germany. Now, most of us
know Jim as a right tackle on our
·football team.
A._t the age of four, Jim, his sister
who is younger, and uncle left from
Chicago one April morning to· go to
Germany to visit Jim's grandparents.
His parents were coming to get him
and his sister in September. Their
plans were never carried out. War
was declared late that summer and
no passenger ships were leaving Germany. so· Jim's six month visit extended into a seven year one.
His grandparents lived on a farm
near the Memel River, which is close
to the Lithuanian border. "We had
it pretty nice until the Russians
started invading Germany. We didn't
have modern conveniences such as
running water, or a tractor, but we
got along just the same,'' Jim said.
For about four and a half years
.Jim attended a German school. He
spoke German entirely. "There is
quite a difference between schools
out there and ours over here,'' Jim
said honestly. "They are much farther ahead. Their summer vacation
Is three weeks long, and then another week is vacation in the fall to
let the pupils pick potatoes. Classes
are held Monday through Saturday.
When you graduate from high school,
though, you're considered pretty
smart, and if you were to continue
college over here it would be a
breeze.
"When I entered school here in
the United States I was handicapped
because I couldn't speak English,''
Jim mentioned. "In less than a year
I had it conquered again. In the
sixth grade I discovered I already
had some of the things being taught
when I was in the fourth grade.
"The teachers over there could use
whips. I remember," Jim said, with
a mischevious look on his face, "we
used to rub onion juice on the willow switch, or something that would
dry it out. Then when the teacher
would spank a mischievious student
with it, there was a good chance that
it would break in two."
When \J1m was about half way
through the fourth grade, the Russians moved into the territory.
"Everyone in the way of the Russians
had to move," he explained. "We
went to Danzig where we were overtaken by the Russians and spent two
months under Russian occupation.
Those- two months were the worst
two months of my life. Then we went
on to Berlin. We had our American
passports all this time, out we didn't
know how the Russians felt toward
the Americans, and we were afraid
what they might do to us.
"After we arrived in Berlin, we
notified the American Embassy. For
over a year we stayed in a United
Nations Relief Camp while arrangements to go home were made. During this entire period my folks didn't
know if we were alive or not.
Through some kind of miracle, we
were," Jim said almost reverently.
Finally after more than seven
years, Jim and his sister arrived
home to b.egin life again as American
citizens. "It didn't take long because
we were still quite young," Jim said.
Jim is enrolled here as a PreMedical student. Something Jim said
keeps coming back - probably because it is so true. He said, "People
over there don't have much, but they
enjoy what they have a lot more than
we, who have much more, do. Still
and all this is the best country in
which to live."
Nancy Clark
Where did you say you graduated?
So Nancy spelled it - Kaiserslautern
American school in Germany.
Nancy Clark is a freshman here in
Secondary Education, with plans for
a history or math major. Some of
you will remember her aunt, Glenna
Clark, who graduated two years ago.
Nancy, her two brothers, and
mother went to Germany in 19 4 9 to
join her father, who was in the Army
Occupational forces. There, she attended an American school taught by
American teachers (except for the
languages and music) from the 7th
grade through her senior year in
high school. She flew back to America last August, and expects the rest
of her family· to return this year.
"It is nice in Germany," she said
thoughtfully. "Now that I think
about it, I guess I didn't appreciate
it, though. You can turn the radio
on and there are no commercials at
all. The newspapers have news in
them, and aren't filled with advertisements. The prices are reasonable
on nearly everything. The movies
that we went to were 25¢. German
theaters charge anywhere from 25¢
to 75¢, depending upon where you
sit. The Germans have American
movies, and it's really funny for an
American to see an Indian come riding up to a cowboy and say, 'Wie
gehts!' which means 'How!'
"Most towns are very small in
Germany, with one street. The house
faces the street and attached to it
in the back is the barn,'' Nancy explained. "The cows did all the work
in the German area near us. They
didn't have horses. This may sound
odd, but it was true - if the cow
happened to be busy in some other
field, the woman would pull the
plow."
Those of you who don't believe
in stoplights should transfer to Germany for a while. They don't have
them. "The cars go tearing down the
street 4 0 miles an hour!" Nancy exclaimed. "Most people ride bicycles
though, which is good because of
the very narrow streets."
Blue jeans were laughed at when
Nancy first arrived in Germany. Now
German companies are manufacturing them. "I didn't laugh at their
short leather pants and kneesox, like
they did at my jeans and riding
pants,'' Nancy said defensively. "We
had only one American clothing store
and there was no variety. German
clothes weren't appealing, and their
shoes looked like canoes."
Nancy visited Rome, London, and
Paris and went to Holland, Belgium
and Switzerland. "England is beautiful. Almost as beautiful as Wisconsin,'' she said, enthusiastically. "I
like it there very much. We visited
Shakespeare's home while we were in
England, too."
One event Nancy will probably
never forget is her Junior Prom in
Germany, "I went to Heidelberg for
my junior year and stayed in a
dormitory. We had our prom at the
Heidelberg castle - the place where
scenes for 'The Student Prince' were
taken,'' Nancy said, her eyes shining.
"Germany is a pretty wonderful
country when you stop to think about
it,'' Nancy said, her thoughts back
in Germany. "1'1 never forget my
stay there, and will probably go back
again some day."
Music Groups Prepare
For Coming Concerts ·
Music has always played an Important part on the campus, and
this year is no exception. The band,
under the direction of Dr. Hugo
Marple, will play a concert at Wausau for the County Teachers association. In November tentative plans
have been made for the band to play
a special "Children's Concert" for
the Campus school pupils.
December
brings the
annual
Christmas program in which the
Men's Glee club, Girls Glee club, and
Mixed Choir will perform. As the
year progresses, these groups will be
heard at various other functions.

First of all, hats off to the Pointers for the fine game against Milwaukee. Coming from 13 points behind, the Pointers played the Gulls
off the field in the second half. With
that great spirit and will to win we
expect them to take Whitewater by

Pacific over Colorado A and M,
UCLA over Stanford, and Wyoming
over New Mexico.
•
In the play for pay league, which
one never can predict, it should be
Detroit over Baltimore, Philadelphia
over Washington, Pittsburgh over
Cleveland, New York over Chicago
Cards, San Francisco over Chicago
Bears, and Los Angeles over the
Packers. The Packers have lost some
tough games this year and one of
these days they are going to get hot
and surprise somebody.
· In the week's big game we like
Slippery Rock over Indiana State
( Pa.) in a close one. This is Slippery
Rock's homecoming game so they
should be up for the game.

Wiemann (12), Pointer quarterback watches. Stevens Point clipped the Green

Elsewhere in the Big Ten we like
an underrated Minnesota team over
a disappointing Illinois team 21-7.
Michigan should continue its winning
ways by taking Northwestern 14-7.
Indiana moves outside the conference and will beat Misseuri 27-13
while Notre Dame should stop Michigan State 26-14. We also like Colorado over Iowa State, Oklahoma over
Kansas, Kansas State over Tulsa,
and Nebraska over Oregon State.
Swinging east it looks like Marquette over Holy Cross, Duke over
Army in a game that could go either
way, Syracuse over Boston U., Brown
over Princeton (our upset of the
week), Colgate over Dartmouth, Columbia over Harvard, Yale over Cornell, Wake Forest over Geo. Washington, Navy over Pitt, Penn State
over West Virginia, Penn over Washington and Lee, and Virginia over
VMI.

Punchless Quakers Next
Foe For Pointer Eleven
The Pointers, with a 16-13 victory
over Milwaukee under their belts,
travel to Whitewater . October 16 to
play the win-less Quakers, who have
the 1954 record of four consecutive
set backs. They lost to Carroll 2 0-0,
to Eau Claire and to Oshkosh by
identical 13-7 scores and to Platteville 38-7. Edgar Schwayer is presently the coach of their football
squad.
The 1953 season's record of Whitewater was two wins and four de'f eats. Their conference record was
2-3, but one of their victories came
at the expense of the Pointers, who
dropped a close 15-12 decision at
Whitewater.
The probable starting line-up for
the oncoming encounter will be: Ken
Roloff and Tom Brockley at the
ends; Jack Crook and Jim Fleig,
tackles; Ken Hurlbut and George
Roman, guards; center Dave Hurlbut: Gene Noonan and Ted Ludeman
at the halfback positions; John
Smith at fullback; and Carl Wiemann as the signal caller.

Do you know the only impossible
score in a football game? It is a one
to one tie. You see, a forfeited game
enters the record book as one to
nothing, consequently one to one is
impossible.

Kriminal Kourt Kases!
School days spent ip. court often
turn up some interesting stories
about teachers and pupils. Here are
a few from a Milwaukee Journal
story:
Bad Example. Should a teacher be
fired for fighting with his wife in
public? Yes, because that may teach
his pupils to do the same thing when
they grow up, declared the Supreme
court of Wyoming.
Teacher Knows Best. If the principal wants junior to eat lunch in
school and his mother insists that he
eat at home, where wlll junior eat?
In school. Lunch during school hours
ts part of his education and his
mother has nothing to say about it,
ruled the Supreme Court of Nebraska.
·
Nofi Behind Ban. May teachers
work as barmaids after hours? No,
because they might encourage their
pupils to drink, said the Supreme
Court of Pennsylvania.
Not Slttbag Pretty. Should teachers be reprimanded for sitting on
men's laps where their pupils can
see them? Ye11, because such conduct will make it hard for them to
maintain discipline, declared the Supreme Court of Michigan.
"Sbhh Pal" Should a child be suspended because his father calls on
his teacher to tell her she is ignorant? No, because the sins of the
father should not be visited on the
children, said the Supreme Court of
Georgia.
No Electioneering. Should a teacher tell his pupils what candidates
their parents ought to vote for? No,
because such advice may set the children to fighting with their parents
who have enough to fight about already, ruled the CaliforJ!ia Court of
Appeals.
