Campus School Office Announces Placements "The demand for teachers at the Placement Office of Wisconsin State College, Stevens Point has been far greater this year than in previous years," says Dr. R a y m o n d E. Gotham, director of placement. In January more superintendents visited the campus to fill mid-year vacancies than there were candidates available. Two primary grade graduates and three intermediateupper elementary grade graduates were available mid-year, and all obtained positions. Four secondary (high school) graduates and one special major in art were available midyear and located favorable positions. Since February 1, the date set for visitation of State Colleges for interviewing candidates for fall vacancies, there has been a constant flow of superintendents to the Placement Office to interview June and Summer School graduates. Twenty-eight primary grade candidates will complete the four-year course and will be available for teaching this fall. Thirteen have already accepted a position in the larger schools of the state. Sixteen will graduate from the intermediate-upper elementary division. Seven have already accepted teaching positions. In the field of rural education, twenty-one have completed the two-year course and five the three-year course. In secondary education (High School) there will be available fifteen home economics majors, two conservation majors, five biology majors, two chemistry majors, two general science majors, seven English majors, two geography majors, six history majors, and six mathematics majors. Of the one hundred fifteen graduates of the Education Depart~ ment 17 per cent are graduates of the local high school. Seven are in the primary division, two in the intermediate-upper elementary division, one in the rural department, and ten in the secondary division. The supply of teachers from the Education Department of this college will fill but a fraction of the demands that have been made for beginning teachers at the Placement Office. Positions would be available for many times this number in the field of rural and elementary education, English, the social sciences, sciences, mathematics, and in particular, our two special majors, home economics for women and conservation-forestry for men, from the requests t'hat have been made and are anticipated at the Placement Office·. An increasing number of former graduates (alumni) wtn be offered fav_ --orable promotions from their' present positions if they have earned an attractive evaluation of their personal and professional services. Current inexperienced graduates of the four-year course who have accepted ' teaching positions have received salaries ranging from $3,200 to $4,137 a school term. On a weekly basis this ranges from approximately· $90 to $109. The average salary for the school year for the primary grades is $3,410 and for the intermediate-upper e 1 e lh e n t a r y grades $3,452. It is too early to calculate an average for the secondary field, since only a small percentage of higt_J. school teachers have as yet accepted positions. Placement of teachers in the high school field is generally completed during April and the early part 'of May. Mid-year, June, and Summer School graduates who have already accepted teaching positions are as follows: • Primary Bahr, Nadine (Amherst Junction) · teaching position - Green Bay, Wis.

Tau Gam's Third Triumph; Take Traveling Trophy It was truly a "Gr<>..'ld Night for Singing" Monday eveniug, February 21, when esc presented their third annual songfest to a packed auditorium of students, faculty and townspeople. Ruth Ann Charlesworth, past president of CWA, was the mistress of ceremonies for the gala musical event. Before the student-produced musical event was presented, Fred Stephanek played several entertaining selections on the organ. The Songfest opened with a graceful exhibition of ballroom dancing by Marcie Skalski and Jim Richards to the tune of a "Grand Night for Singing." Psi Beta Psi started the evening off with their harmony arrangement of "Kentucky Babe" followed by Omega Mu Chi's arrangement of "Perfect Day." The religious clubs were represented by Newman Club's singing of "The Bells of St. Mary's," and Gamma Delta's arrangement of "Just As I Am." Gals from Nelson Hall clad in their night attire did a clever parody on life in the dorm, and sang "Count Your Blessings" as their serious song. Phi Sigma Epsilon and Sigma Phi Epsilon represented the fraternities of esc with their arrangements of "Sweet Chariot" and the "Whipenpoof Song." Even the faculty sang a song amid "much applause. Honors, for the third straight year, were awarded to Tau Gamma Beta for their close harmony arrangement of "In the Still-of the Night" and the parody skillfully sung to the tune of "This Ole House" depicting college life. Roberta Vaughn, new president of CWA, presented the trophy award to Lois Schlottman. Miss Patricia Reilly, with the assistance of Fred Stephanek at the organ, and Margaret Ann Christ at the piano, led community singing while the judges were deciding upon the winner. The judges were the following townspeople: Mrs. A. A. Mellentine, Nelson Bell and Mrs. Victor Bukolt. The judges based their decision on ten points for musical performance , five for originality, and five points, stage appearance. Bill Ruhsam and Harold Smith were in charge of lighting and Tau Kappa Epsilon fraternity acted as ushers for the enjoyable musical event. First Female Forester Finds Field Fascinating An enthusiasm for the great outdoors is the reason Janice Weber is our first woman Conservation major on campus. She is in pre-forestry. She hails from Janesville originally but lives with friends on·the Menominee Reservation near Shawano. Here at college, Jan resides in room 214 at Nelson Hall with her roommate, Inga Luhring of Bryant. Jan attended the Agriculture School of Colorado A and M at Fort Collins for. two quarters before coming to esc. "CSC is closer to home. Guess that's my reason for coming here, besides forestry," she explained. Her hobbies are the piano and accordian in the music field. Horseback riding takes some of her interest too. She is experienced· in training horses, which she has done for ten years. Jan was affiliated wi~h the White Horse All Girl Troop from Naper, Nebraska for four years. Being the only girl in some classes doesn't bother Jan, ·but she believes it bothers some of the fellows, who think a woman's place is in the home and not in the Conservation field. .Oscar Wilde once said that when good Americans die they go to Paris.

' Fine Operas Given By Talented Casts On February 2 7 and March 1, the music department presented two operas, Sundgaard's "Sunday Excursion" and Wilder and Menotti's " The Telephone" in the library theater. The opera "Sunday Excursion" was set in a 1910 railway coach of the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railway and was most enjoyable. Conversation during the trip was sung by Judy Olson taking the part of Veronica, Claire Mueller as Alice, Roy Hackbart as Marvin, Roland Marsh as Hilary and Lonnie Doudna as Tim. Helen Schlack was the piano accompanist. "The Telephone" opera was also much enjoyed. It was. centered around a young man who attempted to propose to his girl over the telephone. Mary Ann Smith took the part of Lucy, and Wayne Salter played Ben. Gloria Suckow accompanied them. Miss Patricia Reilly was in charge of the music and Dr. Hugo D. Marple the stage. esc The anual Phi Sig style show is coming up. The time is 8 p.m. on March 8 and 9 in the college auditorium.

'l'his is the time of year in which a large majority of the nation's colleges make their selections for the College Who's Who. These selections are given to the senior men and women who have proved themselves outstanding throughout their four years at their college. Thel'e "" no great material award connected with the selection; you merely get your name published in the book "Who's Who in American Colleges." However, there is a tremendous honor connected to the award and merely to have your name included among the elite of our nation's institutions of higher education is an item of no small prestige, but, most Important of all, to be selected shows that your meritorious work and achievements at your college have been recognized and appreciated. Central State no longer practices the policy of thus honoring its seniors. We don't know why this award was dropped, but the important thing is that we believe the practice should be reestablished. The students attendIng CSC are every bit as capable as the students of the rest of the nation's colleges and to withhold the honor due the particularly outstanding ones is not only to rob the. students of deseryed acclaim, but also to withhold from the college itself much prestige. We suppose that one of the arguments against such awards is that too few c$n be chosen and too many are eligible. This doesn't seem too great a problem. In every graduating class there are those that stand head and shoulders above their classmates as far as services rendered during their college eareers. Not being named isn't going to "warp" anyone, if that is the worry of the administrators of such an award. The present "Deans' List" doesn't seem to have too adverse an effect on those not named to its roster. We strongly urge that the "Who's Who" award be again given to those deserving of such accolades here at esc. The quality of our students reflects on all of us. 1 ""L I ~1il i ESG FAMILIAR FACEs ........ .. GLADYS LEHMANN By Anne Stoleson "Everyone knows everything about me. There isn't much to hide or tell," Glady Lehmann says with a grin. "And please call me .Glady, as I can't stand being called Gladys. My middle name is even worse." (The name is withheld on request of the subject). Please note: "Lehmann is spelled witli TWO n's." Always smiling, laughing and bubbling with pep is the description of our familiar face this week. And all the students who know Glady will agree - she is a typical AU-American Gal. To get down to facts: Glady claims Granton, Wisconsin as her home. "No one has ever heard of it, but it's there," she explains. "The population amounts to 300, including me." (To those who have never beard of Granton, it is 'mid-way between Point and Eau 'C laire.) When asked about brothers and sisters she replied, "Oh, I have all sorts, three of each. I'm second youngest and I wouldn't trade it for anything. My younger sister Carol 'is a riot. It's beginning to look like she'll follow in my footsteps. When I go home, I find Carol playing college, and trying to get into the dorm without being campused." (This, of course, has no reflection on Glady.) The first semester of Miss Lehmann's college life was spent at the University of Wisconsin. In relating this, she said, "I loved it, absolutely loved it. But because of ailments of the pocketbook, , I transferred to Point. The students here are a lot friendlier, but the facilities were wonderful at · Madison." At CSC Glady has English as a major and Speech and geography for minors. "Geography is my pastime minor," she says. Part of her practice teaching days were spent at the Campus school teaching geography. This year Glady is at P. J. Jacobs teaching English to the Juniors. "I advise everyone to try living • in an apartment," Glady says with a chuc-kle: "It's great." She is one of the famous Dizzy Dozen. Her roommate is Jane Schultz. These two girls have quite a contest. They are .competing to see who gets the most mail. "Jane is winning now because my Mel is flitting a.round the Mediterranean and not writing." Mel Smith is the man in her life. "He's a little guy- 6'7"- from Humbird, Wisconsin, and yes, he plays basketball." Besides Mel, dramatics is the favorite pastime of our familiar face. Glady has been in College Theater for four years. She says, with a chuckle, "When no one is looking, I try to act." Along with acting, she has directed two One-Act plays, has judged local forensic contests at Wisconsin Rapids for three years, and at the present time is helping Mr. Blakeslee as student-director of "My Three Angels" - the three-act play to be presented April 28. Everyone who saw the one-act plays this year saw an example of her talent in directing the play "The Boor." "l like to dance, and dance, and dance. Better than anything else, I like to dance." As the reader has probably guessed, Gladys likes to dance. So, music, takes up another portion of her busy life. An active member of the Girls Glee club, she sings second alto. "I'm proud to say that I am a member of the new triple trio that will sing on WSAU-TV March 30," she says. Other activities in Glady's life are Gamma Delta of which she was president for one year, Tau Gamma Beta sorority and Alpha Psi Omega fraternity, which is an honorary dramatic fraternity. Also, she adds, "I like roller skating, swimming, and plays. Most outdoor sports don't interest me 'cause I'm not very good at them." "Summer vacation, well - I work so I can come back to school in the fall. I have the most exciting summer ahead of me. You see, I have three brothers on the East coast and they have invited me to vacation with them. I only hope I can." The future is dubious. "I want to teach in a small town in the southern part of the state, but I'll be content anywhere I can teach dramatics. As yet, I haven't a job. I do plan on teaching for two years," she says with a gleam in her eye. (Could be that Mel has other plans for her.) Everyone knows that Glady is a busy, busy gal, but wherever she goes, a friendly smile, a cheery "Hi" and a jolly laugh follow her. A former CSC student, Jeanette Kennedy, was elected queen of the 36th little international show at Madison, sponsored by University of Wisconsin agriculture and home economics students. Jeanette is from Morrisonville, Wisconsin. Men's Glee Club Lists Concert For March 15 All you CSC gals and guys had better start sa..ving up your pennies for the next Men's Glee club concert to be held on Tuesday, March 15, at 8:15 p.m. in the college auditorium. It will be a Miami benefit concert. .The Glee club wili consist of 50 male voices. The guests of the Glee club will be Susan Eastwood, pianist, a student at P. J. Jacobs High school, Dr. Peter Kroner, bass, and the Tim Gamma Beta sorority songfest chorus, a group that won the trophy at the recent songfest. Fred Stephanek will play organ music, and will also. accompany the Glee club on the organ, as will Ruth Ann Charlesworth on the piano. Roy Menzel will be master of ceremonies. The program will consist of the following selections: "Brothers, Sing On," Grieg; "A Bird in the Linden Tree," Soderberg; "Dear Old Donegal," ·Graham-Watton; "The Galway Piper," Irish Air; "I Got Plenty o' Nuthin," Gershwin; '.' Roll, Chariot Roll," Noble Cain; "Wayfarer's Night Song," Martin-Solter; "Surrey with the Fringe on Top," from Oklahoma, Rogers-Stickles; "De Animals A Comin," Bartholomew; "Exaltation," Gibb; "Jubilate Amen," Kjerulf; "Men of Harlech," Norden; also a new four part male arrangement of the "Purple and the Gold" by Lon Doudna, member of the Glee club. the administration staff. By the way, we are always looking for good counselors. Is anyone interested?" (If ·you are interested in counseling work - boys or girls - talk to AI. We're running a little advertising business on the side here.) Clintonville is Al's home town. He has a sister who graduated in '49 from Point. "I remember the first time I saw the market square here when we used to bring her over to school," AI recalled. "I expected something like the square down at Madison. I was kind of disappointed." Life here at Central State has been a full one for AI. He is a four-year letter man in football and this is his fourth year in tennis. During the winter he plays intra-mural basketball on a city team, and for the Badger Amateur Basketball association. He also bowls on the Campus bowling team. "Our biggest competition is with the Eat Shop," AI said. "It's lots of fun. Golfing is another sport I like. It is a sort of hobby with me. I don't do it very often, though." Besides sports, AI works part time at the Campus Cafe, was president of the S-Club last semester, and has been chairman of the Union Board for the last two years. How does he find time to do all this? His answer, "You've just got to make time." (Could we have your recipe, AI?) "Life here has been great," AI said. "You've got to go a long way to beat the friendliness of the fac- AL DUE By Ginny Bricco Our other familiar face this week hails from the " Mad House." (Well, that's what he said it was.) No, Al Due isn't the 13th one at the Dizzy Dozen house. He lives at 902 College avenue, where there are twelve upstairs and six downstairs all men! Occasionally someone has company - men - and then the count goes up. AI has stayed there four years. " My roommate is Earl Staege from Nekoosa. He's a great guy. Sometimes we hang a sign on our door with our office hours listed, so we can get some work done ," AI grinned. Al will graduate in June from Letters and Science with a major in history and minors in psychology and philosophy and in English. He is planning to go into YMCA work. "I have been looking forward to it for about two years now," AI remarked. "For the past four years I have worked at the camp at Manitowish, which is up near Minocqua and Woodruff. The last two years I have been on Singing like a choir from heaven (unearthly) this group of faculty members delighted 0 • • audience at the third annual Songfest. Participating on a non-competitive basis, the ~ group won the hearts of everyone attending and received, by far, the largest applau• of the evening. Tau Gamma Beta won the traveling trophy. ~I=I~I::I~I=I~I::I~ m THE HEART OF THE m ~ C~PUS ~ m ill by Homer Plumb ~I=I~I=I~I=I~I I~ In the not too distant future, CSC students will see a familiar sight on the second floor across from the main office. The Student Council ballot box will be resting on a table with a me1Uber of the Council supervising an all-school referendum. This may well be the most important project undertaken by our student government in many years . The outcome will not affect the present officers and representatives, but it will be of tremendous consequence to those who will follow them. We have heard for some time now that r;r Student Council is just a "band of figureheads." Why aren't they more active? The answer lies in the proverbial piggy bank. The Council has been operating on $45.00 per semester allotment. By the time Homecoming is over, the Council finds itself in the hole from the outset. The Council will continue to be a farce unless it receives more money! * * • • • • • The other colleges in our state have made tremendous progress in dealing with this same problem, and have left CSC in the dust. The functions of these Student Councils in the other colleges are almost unbelievable. Milwaukee State is the most notable. The programs they sponsor and the material service to the college that their council renders is truly wonderful. • Now for the punch line! We are going to ask the students to allow the administration to raise our tuition $1.00 per semester. Your first reaction to the above statement will be a vehement "nuts!" But we plead with your better judgment and ask you to reconsider. If this dollar were turned over to the Council it would give them an annual treasury of over $1,800. (About equal to that of Milwaukee State's.) They could use this money to issue annually a Student handbook, to create a Student Council Scholarship Fund to aid worthy and needy students, to sponsor topgrade programs (both educational and pure entertainment) and to erect such items as student mailboxes, new bulletin-boards , etc. In other words, our Council would become what it should have been years ago. . * * * Our present Council has labored very hard to improve our Student Government. In most of its endeavors, it has run into a concrete wall the wall of bankruptcy. Any student ulty and students. Everyone seems willing to help you out. I've enjoyed it here a lot, but am anxious to get on my own. I have to see Uncle Sam for a while, though." Al really likes outdoor life and working with people. "I usually get in one good canoe trip a summer," he said enthusiastically. "First there are woodticks, then mosquitoes. The cooking tastes great - but if I were served it somewhere else I would refuse it, and the .bed! What bed? - well, anyhow I'm always so tired at night I sleep wonderfully on the ground. It's just great!" AI concluded convincingly. VOL. IV who does not believe that he will "get his dollar's worth" is sadly mistaken. The benefits received by EACH student would far exceed "a dollar's worth." We only wish that we could show you what the other councils around our state are doing for their students! Our Council is laying the groundwork for their successors. Give them the tools to work with that we would have given our right arms to possess. Would $58.50 instead of $57.50 keep you from coming to CSC? The 'students in other colleges have to buy their "annuals." We get ours free. This alone is worth much more than $2.00. Think! Vote "yes" on the referendum! "Sam" Tells Of First Impressions Of America By Nancy Hager Only a few weeks have gone by since Jong Hyon Chey, the friendly student from Korea, registered at esc. The reason that many of ' you may not have heard much about him since is because Jong Hyon Chey (the name) has been replaced by "Sam." Although he could not speak English when he first came to America, he had no trouble reading or understanding it. He insists that he has no trouble understanding lectures but his pet peeve is writing compositions. When asked if he had any hobbies Sam answered, "Soccer." But he quickly went on to say that it iS' nothing like American football. "Soccer is much hard to play," remarked Sam and then modestly said that his University was champions in the game. Sam resides at Delzell Hall and his roommate is Ken Kritz. He enjoys living there and was amazed at how the other fellows were so friendly right from the start. Sam's future plans include getting a Master's and Doctor's degrees in chemistry. He wants to go back to Korea to work as a chemist, but he said that the war has ruined so many of the laboratories that much will have to be done to rebuild them. During this past Christmas vacation, Sam traveled all over the southern part of the U. S. and in Washington, D. C. He is very much impressed by our government and has many pictures of his trip. Sam was surprised to have a girl interview him because he said that in Korea, girls do not talk to boys until boys talk to them. Just another thing he'll have to get used to! He wants to thank everyone who has been so kind to him and who has helped him. He says that perhaps the nicest compliment he could pay to esc is that he hasn't been lonesome for Korea since he has been here.

''l'.m Wqrking My Wft¥j,~ Odd Jobs Aid WalletS By Mary Braatz. .Going to college can, upon occaslon, be costly, as you very well know. Many esc. students earn their tuiti~n; food. fees, and little incidental expenses by working at a variety· of jobs, most jobs being nice, normal, everyday situations. However, a few of the job!! held by students are so unique that they deserve a special pedestal all to themselves. Bill Atwell, a freshman from Point, is a ' furnace fireman now. Every morning, he must trot down to th~ Atwell building, fire-up the furnace there, ev11de the loads of soot that invariably fly out, and then dash off to school. This, .however, is mundane labor compared to what he d·id this summer. Bill is president of the Waupaca Water Ski club - his job and joy there is teaching people how to water ski. This usually calm sport has its ups and downs, such as the time when t}l.e boat pulling the water skier had a · lapse of steering gear and safety throttle, swept up on shore with the frantic skier towed behind, and uprooted a mailbox on the way. No one was hurt, but water skiing was in disgrace for quite a while afterwards. Perhaps you are one of those who patronize the Pool Hall (otherwise Point Billiards, Youth Center, · or The Emporium). Working here are two freshman boys from Paint, Jim Strache and John Lewis. This building is infested with "youngsters" from ages 12 to 65, who blind~~ flog their way through the smokethickened atmosphere in order to play a game of pool or to raise general cain. Chief requirement for this job is perfect eyesight or good glasses. Good muscular tone is also useful, for general bouncing duties are common. John used his physique to escape with his life from a little knife brawl once. The Pool Hall was robbed recently, $288 taken by gangsters breaking in through the front window. Next day the proprietor bought a safe! Despite these little occurrences, John and Jim continue bravely at their posts. If you ever listen in on Radio Station W'SPT, you've no doubt heard the voice of staff announcer, David Silverman. He works here part-time, 20-50 hours a week. Announcing may not be such a tremendously unusual job, but some of the situations Dave hail gotten into make his position unique. Take, for example, this Letters To The Editor Mrs. Peter H.

One little fellow, upon answering the phone, announced that :be wanted Santa to bring him a baby sister. WSPT was treated to several seconds of dead air while a frantic Santa wondered why he wasn't back at the North Pole. When broadcasting was finally resumed, Dave told the eager boy he'd have to speak to his Mommy about a present such aa that. No doubt, other CSC'ers have unusual' jobs of one type or another; it's too bad they all can~t be wrttten up. Nevertheless, the above examples certainly prove that people will do anything to get a college education. w• Stevens Point Again Packer Training Site' By Carl Huberty Thursday, February 24, was the date of the announcement thkt the Green Bay Packers are to train here in Stevens Point for the second consecutive summer. The board of directors of the National Football League announced that their period of visit here would be seven weeks as compared to six in 1954. The reason for the additional week is the earlier arrival of the rookies. The first-year-men will begin training on July 16 while the veterans are scheduled to make their arrival on July 23. The Packers will conclude their stay here on September 2, although they will be out of town on several week-ends prior to that date to engage in exhibition contests. We here at Central State should be greatly concerned with the Packers' visit because our campus is the basic site for their training. When asked what effect the Packers' stay has upon the college, John E. Roberts, head football coach, and Hale F. Quandt, athletic director, both agreed that it definitely is an asset to the school. Both Roberts and Quandt said that the cooperation between the Packers and the college is very good for public relatioqs and publicity ot the college. Coach Roberts also said the Packers training camp stay greatly stimulates interest in the gridiron sport. Because the city cooperates very much with the college, Mr..· Quandt feels that the granting of CSC's facilities to the Packers is one way in which it can repay the city for the aid and favors they give. We're sure that we all agree with Roberts and Quandt in their views and we hope the Packers enjoy their visit and will return again for many summers. Students Return For Continuation Study "There've been some changes made," could well have been the general remark of a certain group of "·new" students as they registered this semester. Actually, college life is not a new experience for them. One interesting check into the files has disclosed a number of them who have come back to continue their education or to do· special work. Some of these are: Liliane· McNulty, a sophomore in Rural education; Mrs. Herbert Benn, special work in L and S; Joyce' Wenzel, a senior in Primary Education; Marion Hummel, a senior in Primary Education; Marion Vaughn, junior in In- . termediate-Upper Elementary education; Cleo Peterson, ·junior in Secondary education; Patricia Christian, _, junior in · Secondary ed\lcation; and Mrs, Herman Toser, who is doing special work.

Mr. B\Kroughs was born and raiaed on a farm in Indiana. Since transportation connections w e r e good, he commuted to Lebanon, Indiana, 1ll mtles away, for high school. In the same manner, he attended Wabash college in Crawfordsville, Indiana, where he received an A.B. degree, with majors in Latin and English. Next, he matriculated (consult We\MJter's) at King's College of Oratory, a specialized private school of oratory, dramatics and lyceum arts, lQCated in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Our genial even-tempered instructor received his Master's degree from the University of Michigan. Only seven years of his teaching career have been spent outside esc. Mr. Burroughs taught two years at a college in Indiana, three years in Kansas City and two in Rockford, Illinois. In 1920, Central State gained his services and has employed them ever since. esc has played a large part in the lives of his family, too. Mr. Burroughs and his wife, Margaret, who teaches at P. J. Jacobs High school, met while she was a student here. Mr. Burroughs' son, Jack, attended esc and was a member of Phi Sigm"a Epsilon. He teaches biology at Appleton High school.

His answer - "I can give you a better feeling about that after I give my first exam." He claimed it is much better to teach in coeducational classes after teaching at Lehigh University in Pennsylvania, an all men's col' lege. He finds our democratic atmosphere very pleasing too. Dr. Taylor is a product of Quaker schools in Pennsylvania, having gone to the Friends Select School and the Westtown Boarding School. His undergraduate work was done at Gilford College in North Carolina and his Bachelor's and Doctor's work at the University of Illinois.

COLLEGE EAT SHOP . I March 3, 1955 THE POINTER PLAYING THE FIELD with Chuck Neinas When this week-end came we didn't know what to write about in this column, but after Saturday night we had enough for a short story. If anyone missed that St. Norberts game he will be left out of the conversations around school. We don't think that we have ever seen so much comment o~r a game which absolutely meant nothing as far as preserving a conference championship or good season record was concerned. The only reason for this comment was the caliber of officiating put on by Phil Manders and Dale Rheel, both of Wisconsin Rapids. • • • • The star of the St. Norberta team is Jim Ritchay, son of the principal of Lincoln High at Rapids and a member of the state championship team coached by Manders and Rheel. It never entered our minds before the game that either of these two officials would show favoritism, as we believed these men to be fair sportsmen. However, they sure did bend over backwards to protect the Green Knights. With the Pointers leading 7 0-5 9, St. Norberta went into a pre&s. The theory behind a press is to risk a foul to get the ball. The Knights scored 12 straight points and had but one foul called against them while pressing. Several times a Point player was obviously fouled and even knocked down, but the refs calmly watched the proceedings without blowing the whistle. Then when the fisticuffs broke in the center of the floor the game really got out of hand. • • * • It wasn't so bad that they failed to call fouls on the Knights but some of them they called on the Pointers were real doozlers. When Dick Tuszka picked up his fifth foul it was plainly a case of fine acting by Bugalski and the officials calling something they didn't see. We also thought the fifth foul on Koepke came from nowhere. Now that you have read our views on the game here are a few others: Coach Hale Quandt "I thought definitely that the game got out of control." Mr. Lewis - "The refing was so indecisive that no one knew what was going on." John Amburgy- "I don't think the refs beat us, but they did let the game get out of hand." Jane Bourcier "Personally I thought the refereeing was horrible." Phil LaLeike "I thought it was the worst officiating I've ever seen. - Diane Self "I don't know much about refereeing but I didn't like it." Probably the whole situation could have been averted if this pair of officials hadn't been hired for this game or if Manders and Rheel had called them as they saw them. We don't think they were wearing Green glasses.

They . lost to the St. Norbert Green Knights, who won the bruising battle in the last 10 seconds, 77-74. The Pointers held a slim 3 7-3 4 lead at the· half.

The ball was stolen time and again by the Green Knights' fast guards, Ritchay and Neja, and the Pointers big lead was blown sky high. With the score tied 7 2-7 2 and only minutes left, the action got out of the referees' hands and the game suddenly became a wrestling match in the middle of the court between Point's Tom Chvala and three Green Knights. A few hot words were exchanged throughout the entire gym before order was restored and play resumed. "Slugger" Chvala and St. Norbert's Jim Ritchay got an early shower as a result of the hostilities. Harland Ware missed a technical foul shot - St. Norbert's Hoerning made his. The Knights added another free throw and led by two, 7 4-7 2 . Babcock's jump shot tied the game for the last time as the Knights added three more free throws.

By Pat Sisel Townspeople and many friends among the faculty and student body were present last Thursday evening in the auditorium when Mis!l Gladys van Arsdale, Campus school supervisor, spoke and showed slides taken on her recent trip around the world and her five month stay in Thailand. Miss Van Arsdale's opportunity for travel came when she was appointed by the government to help set up a workshop for the writing of textbooks to be used in Thai schools. On Thursday evening she reviewed highlights of her trip from the time she left San Francisco last August to her return to Stevens Point in February. The enthusiasm in her voice and manner as she spoke of the friendliness of the Thai people, - of their resourcefulness and willingness to work, and of the charming rolypoly children, convinced the audience that she must have enjoyed her stay in Thailand. After the comments on her trip, Miss Van Arsdale showed colored slides which gave the audience glimpses of every day life in Thailand and in India, of interesting scenes in the Holy Land, of the magnificent Taj Mahal at Delhi, India, and other sights. On display at the front of the auditorium we~;e some of the souvenirs Miss Van Arsdale acquired on her trip. Delicate Thai silks, bone-carved figures, programs from events she atten(led abroad, an etched silver bracelet and many other items were in the display.
