Field House Plans
Look Hopeful for '59
Basketball Season
If all goes according to schedule,
our 1959-60 basketball season will
be played in the new field house,
according to Coach Hale Quandt.
The corner of Fourth Avenue and
Reserve will be the location for the
field house, and construction should
begin in July and take fourteen or
fifteen months. A fireplace, television, leather upholstered furniture,
trophies, and team pictures will be
found in the trophy room and lounge,
located to the right of the southfacing entrance. To the left will be
the concession stand for use during
ball games, a check room, five offices, and three classrooms.
There will be room for two basketball courts and 2400 spectators in the
108 by 120 foot gymnasium, reached
by going straight ahead at the main
entrance. To the west of this gym
is planned an auxiliary gymnasium,
to be used chiefly by the women's
physical education classes, and occasionally men's classes will also
be conducted here. The auxiliary
gym will measure 4 2 by 7 5 feet. It
will contain no bleachers, but some
apparatus will be kept there. Handball courts, to be used also for wrestling and tennis practice, are to be
found on both ends of the auxiliary
gym.
A 30 by 75 foot pool (regulation
size), with balcony and bleachers
for spectators, will be located west
of the auxiliary gym. Attached to
the north side of the building will
be an annex, a 120 by 60 foot unheated room with a dirt floor. This
room will provide practice space for
the varsity football, baseball, tennis,
golf, and track teams in bad weath~r.
There will be room for a 15-lap mlle
track. Mr. Quandt says other things
they would have liked to have included were sacrificed to obtain this
annex, which he feels is very important, especially in this climate.
In the basement will be found the
dressing room, a laundry room, and
an 11 by 22 foot projection room.
For the women a faculty dressing
room, showers, hair dryers, lavatory
and a women's phy. ed. dressing
room are planned. The latter dressing
room will contain 640 baskets for
gym uniforms and equipment. Air
will be forced through the room at
night to dry the contents of the
baskets. Combination locks on the
baskets may be transfered to the
doors of the 100 lockers while the
girls are in the gym.
The plans for the men wil be similar with the exception that there
will be 960 baskets and 60 lockers
in the men's dressing room.
Visiting teams will find a 30 by 15
foot dressing room, with 40 lockers,
awaiting them. Our varsity locker
room will contain 90 lockers, a training room, a storage room for offseason equipment, 90 hangers for
in-season equipment, showers, drying room, and lavatory.
A rather novel feature will be
the "chute" under the first floor,
on the same level and connecting
'the annex. Here dashes may be
started, the track team may jump
hurdles, a golf driving range, archery and rifle range, and a baseball
batting cage will be situated.
Coach Quandt is already looking
forward to the move with anticipation, and the advantages of all the
new facilities will be enjoyed by
the students here in September or
October of 1959.
Glee Clubs and Choir
to Present "Messiah"
On Wednesday, May 14, the combined Girl's Glee Club, Men's Glee
Club and Choir will present Handel's
"Messiah" in the auditorium. The
Chorus will include more then 100
students. Lorretta Anderson of Wausau will sing the soprano solo, Mrs.
Martin Rassou of Wausau will sing
the alto solo, and Mr. Moore of the
esc faculty will sing bass.
Many people have the misconception that the "Messiah" is a Christmas piece. This is not true, the
"Messiah" consists of three parts:
'the Christmas or advent and birth;
the Easter or life and death; and the
Ascention or heavenly life. Almost
all of the "Messiah" will be sung.
The concert should prove to be very
interesting and enjoyable.
New Alpha Sig Actives
Feted Upon Membership
Alpha Sigma Alpha formally received twelve new girls into active
membership in a ceremony, Saturday, April 26, at the home of Mrs.
Nels Reppen.
Both actives and
pledges wore white for the occasion,
as is traditional.
The new members are: Rosalyn
Barbian, Lodi; Irene Chen, · Hong
Kong;
Margaret Epple, Stevens
Point; Jacqueline Fritsch, Withee;
Sylvia Groshek, Wittenberg; Carol
Heinrich, Wausau; Ann Held, Slinger; Joan Pautz, Wausau; Judy Ungrodt, Medford; Elaine Searl, Stevens Point; Shirley Smith, Portage~
and Sandra Steelman, Chicago.
The Initiation Banquet was held
later that evening at the Hot Fish
Shop. Mrs. Elizabeth Pfiffner, Dean
of Women, was guest speaker. Valerie Herman acted as toastmistress
for the occasion. The travelling
scholarship-locket, which is awarded to the pledge with the highest
grade-point avetage, was presented
to Jacqueline Fritsch. Honorable
mention went to Irene Chen. The
decorations further developed the
Southern theme that has been carried out all through the pledge season.
General chairman of the banquet
was Diane Mauel. Committee chairmen were Rosie Lee, dinner reservations; Helen Matsuoka, Invitations;
Rosie Opichka, table decorations;
Jan Duranceau, place ·cards; Helen
Nowicki,
program;
and Allene
Grimm, transportation.
Initiation was the climax of seven
weeks of activity during which the
pledges have been working diligently at those things that would best
prepare them for sorority membership.
The final week of pledging, known
as "Help Week" found the pledges
busy with many projects where they
could be of service.
The pledges visited the hospital
and delivered scrapbooks which they
had compiled of everything from pictures of brides to their favorite humor in the hope of cheering someone's day.
Babysitting was done free of
charge for college students and faculty. At least one job was required
for each pledge.
They cleaned the sorority locker,
hemmed the tablecloth, and polished
the sorority silver. Out-dated signs
and posters were removed from the
halls. The pledges checked and
straightened the membership files
and contracted past members for
additional material to be added to
the records.
Envelopes were stuffed and addressed for the Mental Health Association on Friday.
Omegs Climax Pledging
Season at the Antlers
Omega Mu Chi sorority held its
initiation dinner at the Antlers,
Sunday evening, April 27.
Mary Jo Buggs, toastmistress for
the evening, introduced Helen Lewis
who was the Senior speaker. Helen
spoke on the memories of sorority
life. Janie Trappe, pledge president,
spoke for her pledge class. The
pledges presented the pledge-mistress, Donna Mueller, with a gift.
Sue Rezin, holder of the runnerup scholarship pin, presented the
pin to this year's winner, Louise
Rasmussen. Rebecca Colligan, holder of the high scholarship pin, announced Beverly Beer as the girl in
the pledge class who had the highest scholastic average.
Marney Bierman sang "Tammy"
and
"Angry,"
accompanied
by
Louise Vrobel. The latter selection
was dedicated to the new actives.
Miss Ethel Hill appeared as the
main speaker.
Her topic
was
"Friendship."
Prior to the dinner, thirteen girls
were initiated into the sorority in
a candle-light ceremony at the
Home Management House.
The initiation ceremony was conducted by President Helen Lewis
assisted by Vice-President Donna
Mueller; Secretary Sue Rezin; and
Susie Yach, chaplin.
New actives of the sorority are:
Angel Collard, Beverly Beer, Marilyn Lu Maye, Louise Rasmussen,
Mary Krasny, Sue Rulseh, Penny
Maahs, Caryl Erickson, Bette Charnecki, Mary Ellen Lemancik, Lori

Mrs. Alice Blodgett, Miss Edna Nyquist, and Miss Doris Davis.
"Daughters of Destiny"
On May 1 and 2, the Library
Theatre will present the second in
the International Film Series of
six films. A Franco-Italian production, "Daughters of Destiny" tells
the effect of war on women in three
separate stories. The three, ELIZABETH, JEANNE, AND L YSISTRATA, range from tragedy, to drama,
to coedy.
ELIZABETH stars Claudette Colbert as an American war widow,
seeking her husband's grave in Italy
and concerns what she discovers
there.
JEANNE is an outstanding piece
due to the superb acting of Michele
Morgan, as Joan of Arc, under the
direction of jean Delannony, both
remembered for the SYMPHONIE
PASTORALE.
Martine Carol, publicized French
actress, interprets LYSISTRATA in this comedy relating how the
women of Athens plotted to end the
war with Sparta and thus bring their
husbands home.
Showing will be at 4: 3 0, 6: 30,
and 8:30, Thursday and Friday.
Admission, since the series is no
longer supported by · the activity
fund, will be 2 5 cents for students
at the matinee, and 40 cents for the
evening performances. Adult tickets
are 50 cents and children, 15 cents.
Phi Sigma Epsilon fraternity is in the middle of their pledge season. Norm Dorn

Lettets To The Editor
Dear Sir:
I liave been in two different colleges, before I came to Central
State. DurinJ three years of my
college life, I have not seen a student body so disinterested in school
activities, as in this college at
Stevens Point.
I am not only referring to the
social activities, but also to participation of the student body in the
activities related to the political
and parliamentary procedures.
The social activities of the student body, except for some sororities and fraternities, are limited to
drinking on Tuesday and Thursday
nights in one of the many places
well known to the majority of the
student body.
In the elections for the homecoming queen, one of the biggest
affairs on campus, only 2 5 % of
the student body voted. Now that
the spring elections are nearing,
it would be expected to see students
campaigning for their candidates
for one of the many offices, but
unfortunately there are no signs of
such things.
I am running for the office of
the student council representative
from the junior class. For this purpose I printed some campaign literature and have distributed the
papers in the mail boxes available
for the students. Much to my surprise, I found a number of the said
papers in my own mail box, which
I never put there. Apparently some
gentleman or lady does not like
the idea of campaigning before election, ari.d has said so.
I thought it to be . rather nice if
the student body made a note of
this, and perhaps show a little
more interest in the things happening at school, socially and academicallly.
Cordia.lly Yours,
Jamshid Soulati
Sentimental Over Mother
Mother's Day is one of the newer
holidays in our country and it falls
on the second Sunday in May.
As far as we know the first move
for public and national recognition
of a Mother's Day was made in
South Bend, Indiana, when Frank
E. Hering proposed the idea to the
members of the local Eagles Lodge.
In 1908, Philadelphia had a citywide observance of the day, and in
1914 President Wilson issued a proclamation ordering flags flown from
all government buildings to honor
the mothers of America.
So as the calendar turns to May 11,
this year, our minds turn automatically to Mother. Francis Ledwidge
put some thoughts nicely into this
poem, My Mother.
God made my mother on an April day,
From sorrow and the mist along
the sea,
List birds' and wanderers' songs and
ocean spray,
And the moon loved her wandering
jealously.
Besides the ocean's din she combed
her hair,
Singing the nocturne of the passing
ships,
Before her earthly lover found her
there
An\1 kissed away the music from her
lips.
She came unto the hills and saw the
change
That brings the swallow and the
geese in turns.
But there was not a grief she deemed strange,
For there is that in her which always
mourns.
Kind heart she has for all on hill or
wave
Whose hopes grew wings like ants
to fly away.
I bless the God Who such a mother
gave.
This poor bird-hearted singer of a
day.
The Cold War · and The Curriculum
(This is an original oration written by David Mantik of Gleason, Wisconsin, for the high school forensic
contest. Dr. Guy Gibson has submitted it for publication, feeling it
is valuable reading for every American student and educator Editor's Note)
X-10 . . . x-5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0, blastoff!
And it did. On October 4th of last
year, Russia blazed across the terrestial skies, its scientific achievemerits. It was in a universal language, and an undeniable one. It
was an open fact for the whole world
to see.
Americans, confident of their leadership in everything from basketball
to high-energy physics, were suddenly shocked out of their lethargy.
Authorities have said it provided the
stimulus for the American public.
But do you honestly want to come
down to soil level and do some hard
work? Of course, if we don't we may
as well surrender all pretense of
freedom because Communists do not
believe in weak democracies - it is
either an irresistible defense or Communist domination. But for those
who do want to work, who really
want America to lead the world,
there is something that all of us can
do.
Only a few years ago Russia was
an illiterate country. But they built
an educational system which at present turns out twice as many scientists and engineers as our system. It
is this that determines in our modern world whether a nation shall
exist or whether it shall not. We
must meet the Red challenge, not by
copying their rigid, dictatorial system, but by developing our own democratic system to the fullest extent.
Here are some suggestions, which
if followed could with reasonable
certainty give us a firm grip on first
place.
Our whole system must be remodeled.
Its direction must be
changed. Our main goal at present
seems to be one commonly termed
life adjustment. It seeks to prepare
our students to be socially competent. We replaced some of the fundamental subjects with others such
as marriage and family, personality
problems, dramatics, driver training,
and consumer education. In fact,
one educational commission suggested that as part of their work in history, the students study how the
last war affected the dating pattern
of our culture. But in event of war,
which would win, a nation of skilled
dancers or one that is militarily supplied with the latest scientific equipment?
The whole object has been to make
the subjects interesting and attractive, to make them easier so that
everyone can pass them. And in college it matters not whether you study
calculus, women's styles, or ancient
architecture. Anyone can get a degree.
But we have lost the primary objective of aH education - to train
an individual to think for himself.
We must have a nation whose citizens are able to think soundly about
our numerous national problems. We
ask ourselves, "Will this be learned
with jukeboxes, movies, hotrods,
proms, and television as training
grounds?" The answer is obvious.
The curriculum must be reconstructed.
Since most of our secondary
schools need to make this change, a
national council of scholars could
be set up. It would be their duty to
determine the standard for a high
school diploma and for the competence of teachers. Schools meeting
these standards would be officially
accredited. In all probability, schools
that continued teaching life adjustment courses would not have time

for French, trigonometry, or physics
and as a result would not be accredited. Colleges faced with. rising enrollments would accept ·only those
who were graduates of accredited
schools. Then the communities, realizing their position, would correct
the flaws that exist in our present
system.
Our educational program can easily be accelerated. Students can be
arranged in classes according to their
various abilities. For example, an
outstanding math student would be
in the fast-learning algebra group,
but he might be in the medium group
for English, and the slow group for
French. In this way almost every
student would be given a fair chance
and the exceptional students would
be able to progress at their own
rates. Under our present system they
are often held back since most of the
class work is geared to the level of
the average student.
This system would enable the exceptional student to finish high
school at age · 16 and would permit
him to finish all of his education in
12 or 13 years. The average student would requite only about 14
years. Compare this to our present
system where the minimum for an
education through college is 16 years.
Those students who did not plan
to go to college ,would take all of
the fundamental courses in their
first years in high school. Then, in
their last year, they would take the
subjects necessary for their chosen
vocation.
This program would also help to
solve another one of our educational
problems. Studies indicate that in
high school one out of every five
students in the upper one fourth of
their classes drop out of school. Further, among those who do graduate
in the upper one fourth of their
classes, more than one out of three
do not go on to college.
The reason that many of these quit
is that their brains have been put to
sleep. They have been held back so
long to the level of the mediocre student that they have become bored.
Their intellectual abilities have not
been challenged and consequently
they have no real interest in school.
Divided classes, as discussed, would
help to solve this problem.
Another reason is not financial,
but rather the woefully inadequate
recognition. Is there any high school
in the United States where the topranking scholar enjoys a fraction of
the prestige of the football captain?
If ou·r country really believes in
training men to think, and it wants
men of high mental calibre, why not
see . to it that the highest rewards
go to those who demonstrate this
ability?
An educational system
which does not place a premium on
intellectual achievement is simply
anti-intellectual, and the same applies for the community, the state,
and the nation itself. Once we realize this, we can begin utilizing the
talent which is now going to waste
in our own self-destruction.
Our teachers, too, have suffered
in the life adjustment program. The
anti-intellectual point of view has
been carriBd over into teacher training. Here the specialty is imparting
the know-how of teaching the
tricks of the trade. A mediocre student can load up on a vast number of
courses which teach the techniques
of teaching, and can enter the teaching profession knowing everything
about teaching except the principles
of the subject he professes to teach.
For example, a recent survey disclosed that one fourth of the chemistry teachers and one third of the
physics teachers had taken less than
ten hours of training in the subject
taught. Ten hours would be equivalent to an hour class meeting five
times a week for one school year.
And those teachers who did know
their subjects and were zealous to
impart their knowledge to the students have been severely criticized by
the educationists. And if the teacher
tried to get the students to do some
hard work or had too ,many failures,
he was called into the principal's
office. Everything must be easy and
Johnny must never know failure. As
a result of this philosophy, he goes
out into the world with a disastrous
absence of the fundamental subjects
and a feeling that no matter what
he does, he can never know failure.
The suggested national council of
scholars would be able to correct this
hazardous situation and also to set
the standards for teacher training.
But what can you do to help? Our
modern high schools are in the hands

FAMILIAR FACES
four years it seems strange
think that soon she will be
the alumni. These four
been the most valuable of her l~~~--~[f1i[.
surely the ones she'll always re:lliEIID'(
ber. Pat says she knows
share of the seniors will be
graduate in June, but there
be sadness to mingle with
ness for many of them will
separate jobs and live
school and friends. "You
college is like a road. You
to walk it to find where it
taking the bumps and stones as a
part of it, and the end is what yoQ
make it!"
All of the best to Pat's teaching
future and her role as Mrs. Curry!
Pat Reading
Pat Reading is a senior in Intermediate Education and this issue's
familiar face. She was born June
21, 19 3 6, in Stevens Point and has
resided here all her life. Her family
includes her mother and father, sister Nancy, who is a senior at P. J.
Jacobs, brother Bill, a freshman at
Pacelli, and a brother, Tim in seventh grade.
P. J. Jacobs is Pat's alma mater
from · which she graduated June 3,
1954. While attending high school
she was active in various activities
including, Red and Black Club vice~
president, Junior and Senior Play,
Latin Club, Tattler Staff, Dramatic
Club, and the school newspaper staff.
The high school incident which is
foremost in Pat's mind was told this
way: "Our 1954 basketball team was
headed for state tournament and
so were we - but not without a few
tears ·and laughs shed many times
on the way. One game, especially,
stands out in my mind. The last
game that was to determine whether
we would go state. The score was
close and in the closing seconds we
were all on our feet all except
one. We won by three points and I
turned to say something to the girl
next to me only to find she wasn't
there. Unfortunately, the excitement
was too much and we found her on
the floor between the bleachers she forgot to take a step. But she
recovered and so did we and with
all our support and good playing
on the part of our team we won at
state."
Pat started out in the field of
Medical Technology but after a year
and a half decided that she would
like to work with c:;hildren and what
better way is there but teaching?
College experiences for Pat have
been many and varied and also very
much fun, but sorority pledging was
the most, how should I say it? "Oh,
how do you do Miss
gosh,
forgot her name Oh, well 15 2
% buttons aren't bad, if I stay up
all night and cut two classes I may
get them sewed on by the next meeting." However, every minute of it
was enjoyed and it is certainly something that Pat recalls vividly and
remains outstanding in her college
period.
College activities for Pat consisted
of her sorority, Tau Gamma Beta
Inter-Sorority Representative, Newman Club, aand Round Table Vice
President.
Her hobbies are football (?),
dancing, water-skiing, reading, eating
at root-beer stands, and working
at Hannon's Drugs.
First and foremost in Pat's future
is becoming Mrs. Thomas L. Curry
on May 31, 1958. Next year teaching
at Biron near Wisconsin Rapids, Pat
with have the fifth grade in a new
school with twenty-seven children in
her class. She will also be a staunch
supporter of a certain football team
come fall.
Now that Pat has completed her
of the local communities who finance
them. What they do or do not do is
up to them. What the schools are is
what the school boards make them,
and the school board is the public.
What we must do is to identify the
best in local leadership and get them
to serve on the school board and
leave them there until they have had
time to formulate an effective school
policy.
And you as a citizen and as a member of the PTA can speak up and see
to it that your school's standards
and curriculum meet the stern demands of our era. Then, we can expect to maintain that ever-so-important defense.
Jerry Drake
Jerry hails from Mosinee and is
a graduate of Mosinee High School.
Mr. Drake is twenty-three years old
and is a CSC history major. His
minors include geography an d
physical education.
While in high school Jerry participated mainly in the Hobby
Club, Mixed Chorus, and Band.
Jerry indicated that nothing too
spectacular happened during his
high school career, or at least nothing he cares to mention.
Jerry has a great interest in
history and his major was decided
on from his liking and interest in
the ancient world.
Some of the most outstanding experiences of Jerry's college life are
his interest in the football and
basketball games, and the most
challenging part of his years here
has been the struggle to live on a
very "sub-sistet" income - - - bare
existance!
College activities for this senior
include Alphia Beta Rho and the
"S" Club as well as his being Student Council Representative. Aside ~
from these activities Jerry makes
hobbies
of
boating,
swimming,
fishing, and hiking. (I'm all "in" ..
just typing it! )
Uncle Sam seems to be headliner in the future of Jerry, which
he is looking forward to with
anxious enthusiasm! I'm sure he'll
make a good soldier by looking at
hobbies. At least he shouldn't get
worn out too easily!
Jerry's feelings on leaving old
CSC are thus, "I will be glad to get
out and earn an income; but will
miss the halls and "familiar faces."
Just think of all the money he will
make from his Uncle Sam. That's
living! Jerry stated. "I'm like the
Russians, I've been here on the
five-year plan, having left once to
work in order to come back."
The familiar halls and faces that
Jerry will miss will in return notice
the lack of his presence from the
hallowed halls and familiar faces.

The Newman Club held another
of its regular meetings on Thursday, April 24, in the Pacelli High
School cafeteria. At the meeting
several committees were appointed
to make arrangements for the annual club picnic to be held on
Sunday, May 4, at Lake Emily.
Father O'Connell, principal at Assumption high school at Wisconsin
Rapids, spoke to the group on the
marks of the Catholic Church,
which distinguish it as the true
church.
A picnic is to held this Sunday,
May 4, at Lake Emily, which is on
Highway 10 east of Stevens Point,
and will begin about 1:30 p.m.
Any one wishing to attend this picnic is asked to sign on the club
bulletin board before or at least by
noon, May 2. Those persons that
can furnish a car to take a load
of picnickers along are asked to
place a check mark after their
name when they sign up. Various
games such as softball, volleyball,
horseshoe and a big picnic supper
will be provided for all those attending the picnic. Cars will leave
from in front of Nelson Hall about
1 o'clock.
The next regular meeting will be

WESLEY
W e s 1 e y Foundation held its
monthly Sunday meeting on April
2 7. LSA were our guests for both
the meeting and the supper.
A worship service was held in
the Chapel of the Methodist Church
after the meal. When the service
was over, all present plus a few
late arrivals returned to Wesley
Hall to view a film entitled "One
God: The Ways We Worship Him."
The film covered the main parts
of worship of the Jewish, Roman
Catholic, and the Protestant Church
groups. All who attended this
showing will agree that it was one
of the most informative thirty minutes that they have attended.
Wesley Foundation and the
group from LSA will both agree
that "a good time was had by all,"
but I would like to pose a question:
where was Wesley?
The Wesley Calendar is rather
full for the remainder of the school
year. The next thing other than the
weekly choir rehersals, Bible Study,
the bi-weekly appearancEJS of the
choir and cabinet, is the May 8th
meeting. At this meeting will be
heard a pair of Missionaries of
the Church of Jesus Christ of

the biggest and the best ever.
The Senior Banquet willl be held
at the Church on the twenty-fifth

'58 Homecoming Plans
Already in the Making .
Homec_oming plans for '5 8 are
already m the making. The excitement will start with the annual
Quee~'s
Dance followed by the
selectwn of the Queen.
. Of course, no homecoming would
be co~plete without a parade with
bea_u~Iful floats to. add to the competitwn. After the game, which we
hope will be a celebration, next
year, is the Homeoming Dance. If
you are graduating don't forget
the alumni-banquets for the sorori~
ties and fraternities.
Bob Hanes, chairman, , says, "Our
biggest problem will be to keep. the
'suitcase students' from going home
that weekend." Assistant chairman
will be Henry Trezeciak and the
parade marshal will be Jim Freiman.
Nelson Hall held its annual Formal Dance last Saturday evening. About
couples attended .the dance. Carmen Lane provided the dance music.

It's All Over Now
But it Was Worth ·it!
By Marilyn Lu Maye
Dear Mom,
Well, it's finally over! Sororitv
pledging I mean. As you know last
Friday was Hell Day and it sure was.
I thought you'd like to hear the details so here goes.
Thursday night I crawled into bed
at a friend's hou_se as it was closer to
Iverson Park, our morning destination. At five o'clock we stumbled out
of bed, grabbed our little red wagon
full of gqodies and started on our
long, cold journey to Iverson Park.
Much to our dismay, we found two
very important items missing,
napkins and wood. After these things
had been obtained and things were
going smoothly, the actives pulled up
in their warm cars and immediately
began complaining about the breakfast preparations. Then, because they
hated to see us standing around
shivering, they subtly suggested we
partake in a few warming up exercises. One hour later they were ready
to leave and finding a soft part deep,
deep down in their hearts, .offered
us a ride back to school.
~
Well, we arrived back at school
only to find that things weren't much
better there. By glancing at the bulletin board we discovered we were to
be carrying around such convenient
items as raw eggs, bananas, candy,
pledge paddles, pledge books, pennants, and the ever-present beanies.
Perhaps the worst aspect of the day
was the reminder that no words were
to be passed with members of the opposite sex. Our theme song for the
day - "Secretly." Except for an occasional splatch of an egg, the morning passed uneventfully. When the
clock struck twelve, all pledges
assembled in front of school and began playing such educational games
as jack, peas porridge, ·and hopscotch
with our fraternity brothers. Other
than the fact that most of us gained
a few hundred demerits, all survived.
Before long we were appropriately
dressed for an impossible scavenger
hunt and a parade down Main Street.
Imagine trying to find five chairs
from the Mutt in Sputnik, a thimblefull of water from the Plover River
woodticks, a man's garter, a live fly:
a hubcap from a Ford car, and the
footprint of Mr. Lewis' dog. It seemed we had no more than started our
hunt when it was time to return practically empty-handed.
Then it was time for the dreaded
event, hazing, but at long last everyone had been subjected to a certain
degree of torture including the swallowing of a raw egg and the night
was drawing to a close. Then guess
w_hat, Mom? Much to our surprise, we
d~scovered the actives could really be
mce. In fact, they proved this even
more by entertaining us.
Annual Nelson Hall
Formal Follows the
Theme of "April Love"
The Nelson Hall Formal, an annual event sponsored by the girls
from Nelson Hall, took place Saturday evening, April 26, in the Nelson
Hall Cafeteria.
"April Love" was the theme of the
formal,
and
was
appropriately
brought out in the decorations. Carman Lane's orchestra provided the
music for the seventy couples who
attended.
The dancers entered through a rosecovered arbor, into a spring time
~antasy, with soft lighting illuminatI~g the pale blue ceiling, from which
Silver stars were suspended.
On the mirror, a rainbow was reflecte~. and two vine-covered pillars
~tood m the middle of the floor, addmg to the garden-like effect. Placed
around the floor were park benches
~ose-covered trellises, cherry trees
m bloom, hedges, and a few birdbaths.
To complete the spring night effect, murals of pussywillows trees
butterflies, and various oth~r sea~
sonal paintings, covered the walls.
The committee chairman for this
event were as follows: advertising
Gertrude Schweitzer; punch, Mar;
Ann Pautz; decorations, Linda Wils?n; tickets, Jane Johnson; invitatwns, Alice Robley; and orchestra,
Bev Brown and Judy Cepak.

A Field Trip for Seventh Graders
To The Horicon Wildlife Refuge
On Saturday, April 12th, a seventh
grade science class of the Campus
School went on a field trip to the
Horicon Wildlife Refuge.
Mr. James Bell, State Game Management official for the Wisconsin
area of the refuge, conducted the
morning tour. Our first stop was at
the Memorial site located on a bluff
on the southern end of the refuge.
Mr. Bell outlined the history of the
area. The bluffs on the east side of
the marsh are the result of the last
glacier that covered the area. The
southern end of the marsh is an outwash plain. The Rock River flows
through the marsh with the west
branch flowing from Waupun and
the east branch draining the area
east of the marsh. When white men
first came to the area, Indians were
camping on the edge of the marsh.
They gat,hered wild rice and captured the wildlife of the area. The
first dam across the Rock River was
erected about 1846 at the present
site of Horicon. Various attempts to
drain the marsh in the early 1900's
and farm the land were mentioned.
In 1914, a fourteen-mile long ditch
was dug to drain the entire marsh.
The attempts to crop the land failed
because of inadequate drainage and
the need for large amounts of fertilizer. In 1921 Mr. "Curley" Radke,
a noted conservationalist; succeeded
in getting various people and groups
interested in establishing a game refuge in the area. The dam at Horicon was rebuilt in 1935.
Today, the south one-third, or approximately 10,000 acres; is owned
by the State of Wisconsin. The land
was purchased by funds provided by
the federal government through the
Pittman-Robertson Act. This act
provides for a federal excise tax of
11% on all hunting equipment sold.
The north two-thirds, or approximately 20,000 acres, was purchased
by the federal government with revenue received from the sale of the
federal Migratory Waterfowl stamp.
This yearly stamp is required of all
waterfowl hunters over sixteen years
of age and purchased from the Post
ASA Pledges Shine
"Sparkles and Spangles" was the
theme of the Alpha Sigma Alpha
spring tea which was held Tuesday,
April 15, from 3:30 to 5:00 in the
Home Economics Parlors.
The tea is an annual affair wherein
the Alpha Sig pledges honor their
actives and the Tau Gamma Beta
and Omega Mu Chi pledges.
Sparkling name tags of red and
white dotted with rhinestones, were
in keeping with the the~e.
A variety of tea sandwiches, nuts,
mints, and coffee and tea were
served. Receiving the guests were
Miss Vivian Kellogg, advisor; Joan
Pautz, pledge president; and Sylvia
Groshek, pledge secretary-treasurer,
Allene Grimm, Barbara Jenkins, and
Dixie Blom presided at the tea table.
Home Ec Club Freshmen
Plan Senior Breakfast
On Monday, April 14, the College
Home Ec Club met for their regular
meeting. Plans for the annal senior
breakfast which will be held in May
were made. The Freshman Home
Ec · students will plan and prepare
the breakfast honoring the home
economics seniors.
The next meeting of the club will
be a picnic with the seniors in
charge.
The convention ot the Wisconsin
Home Economics Association. which
will be held April 25 and 26 at Green
Lake was discussed. Several students and advisors plan to attend.
After the meeting, Bev Cekosh
spoke to the group on "The Perfect Silverware." Following this, the
club was invited to a tea in the
home economics parlors with Miss
Doris Davis pouring and Rosalyn
Lee chairman of the event.
Thursday, April 17, the Home Ec
Club was busy . with the luncheon
and style show for the high school
seniors interested in Home Economics. The theme for the event was
"At a Sidewalk Cafe." The luncheon was held at the union for
about severity-five people. The style
show following the luncheon featured dresses made in the clothing
classes and some of the latest chemise. styles.
Office Department for $2 at the present time. Originally the stamp cost
$1.
Mr. Bell told of the variou's techniques used to keep the marsh in
good condition and improve the area
for waterfowl. These included controlled burning during January, February, and March to get rid of vegetation and to keep certain water
areas open, the planting of food
patches, and the planting of shrubs
and trees to improve the habitat
and give added protection for the
waterfowl.
The class crossed the marsh on the
main five-mile dike which was constructed in 19 52 to aid in keeping
the water level at the proper height
in the federal part of the refuge.
We recrossed the marsh by the Old
Marsh Road and by State Highway
No. '49' near the northern end of
the refuge.
An estimated 50,000
geese and 10,000 ducks consisting of
mallards, pintails, shovellers, blackducks, and widgeons; were feeding
in the marsh, resting on the higher
ground, and flying to various feeding
areas. Three whistling swans were
observed on the main ditch north
of Highway '49'.
The late afternoon was spent observing numerous flocks of geese
leaving for spring-picked corn fields
outside the refuge. The geese return
to the protection of the refuge at
dusk. An ideal place to observe this
activity is along Highway 49 where
it intersects the northern part of
the marsh. Mr. Bell said that practically all of the geese le~;tve the refuge for the ·Canadian nesting areas
by April twentieth.
The group was accompanied by Mr.
John Barnes, Assistant Professor of
the Biology Department at Wisconsin State College; Mrs. Joseph Pfiffner, supervising teac'her; Mr. Herbert Schotz and Mr. Russel Kostrzak,
student teachers; Mr. C. M. Wright,
parent representative; and Mr. Joseph Pfiffner.
Young Dems Approve
Censorship Resolution
At a meeting held by the Young
:Qemocrats of Central State College,
Stevens Point, on April 2, the group
approved a resolution concerning
censorship. This was rejected by the
Young Democrats of Wisconsin at
the 1958 convention held in Stevens
Point fro'hl March 28 through March
30.
The resolution reads as follows:
Whereas the Freedom of the indidual to read literature of his own
selection is absolutely essential for
the devellopment of an informed and
intelligent electorate and;
"Whereas certain pressure groups
in our society are attempting to tell
the American people what books and
magazines they can and cannot read
by threatening book sellers and magazine sellers with economic reprisals
and;
"Whereas the Young Democratic
Club of Wisconsin refused to uphold the sentiments expressed in
this resolution;
"Be it hereby resolved by the
Young Democrats of Central State
College that they -re-affirm their
opposition to censorship and all
attempts to deny adult citizens of
the state of Wisconsin access to information on any and all topics
which may be of interest."
A minority report was filed with
the secretary by Glenn Zipp of Merrill which stated that he was opposed
to censorship also. He contended,
however, that the resolution should
also have re-affirmed the right of
organizations to impose 'censorship'.
on its members.
We, the dissenting minority, while
agreeing in principle to the above
resolution, question its phraseology,
and wish to define our position:
That a member or members of
any given group has the right to
try and persuade its' fellow members
what they should or should not
read, and its' members have the right
to try and persaude, by a free exchange of ideas, non-members to
adhere to their standards, but no
group or individual (s) has the right
to coerce an individual (s) to accept
their standards, or to attempt to,
or prevent, the process of production
and distribution of any literature
contrary to, or alinement with, their
concepts.

one of which was a t e.
La Crosse, in fine form for early
season, slammed the Pointers in
three events, taking the first, second
and third places. They swept both
hurdles and the 100 yard dash. In
all they had 14 out of 15 first
places, including the relay, 8 out of
14 .seconds, and 7 out of 14 thirds.
Big Cal Clausen was beaten by

l{estly was beaten by lA, inch in the
broad jump. La Vern Lubstorf took
a second in both the discus and
javelin.
Kottke placed second in the high
jump with 6'10n.
Kestly also took a close second in
the 440 yard dash with Jiggs Meuret
finishing behind him for third place.
Harold Baillargeon, a freshman, took
third in both the mile and two-mile
and Bordan of Point had a third in
the shot. Kiefert scored a third in
the half mile and Kestly managed
a third in the 220. Ryskoski took
a third in the javelin and Johnson
wound up' in a three way tie for
third place in the high _jump to round
out the point scoring for the Pointers.
Four Pointers Pitch
A No-Run No-Hit Game
to Tip Lavvrence 2~0
Four CSC pitchers teamed up and
pitched a no - hit no - run game
against Lawrence last Saturday. The
phchers had plenty of help from the
esc batters as the score ended up
24-0.
Paul Boehmer, Dave Roman, Jim
Hoffman, and Bob Shofranski, besides pitching hitless ball, struck
out twenty-four Lawrence batters in
the nine innings. None of the pitchers were in trouble as they mowed
down the Lawrence artillery men.
The Pointers were never in need
of any outside help as they pounded the opponents for twenty-seven
hits. It was a display of power such
as the Pointers haven't enjoyed . in
a long time. Led by Dick Busse's
home run in the fourth, esc smacked hits in all directions.
Phil Cole headed the attack with
six hits. Jack Krull had five hits and
Leroy Ferris had three safties in
six appearances.
In general it was a pretty destructive afternoon, with Lawrence being
destroyed and Point doing the destroying. The Pointers now have
three victories against a single defeat. This sets the stage for a show
down against Plattevillle Saturday
afternoon at Bukolt Park. This will
be a conference double-header.
Pointers Place Fourth
in Second Track Meet
The Pointer trackmen • suffered
their second set-back in as many
starts as they managed only a fourth
place in the quadrangular track meet
held in Appleton on Saturday, April
26, at 1:30 p.m.
Oshkosh,
displaying surprising
strength, captured the meet with
71lh points. Ripon College was
second with 63 points and Lawrence,
the host school, took 3rd with 58%
points. The Pointer trailed far
behind with 2 6% points.
Don Ryskoski again was the only
Pointer to take first. He hit 12
feet-3 inches · in the 'pole valut. Other
Pointers who placed in the meet
were: Fritz Kestly who took a 3rd
in the 44.0 and the broad jump;
Jiggs Meuret managed a 5th in the
440; Jim Kiefert took a 3rd in the
880 for his best time ever of 2:08;
Dave Wendel got a 5th in the mile
and Harold Baillargeon took a .5th in
the 2 miles. Don Kottke wound up
in a 4-way tie for second place in
the high jump, and LeVerne Luebsdorf took a 5th in the javelin.
The relay team composed of
Meuret, Ken Semons, Fredorowicz
and Kestly took second to round out
the Pointer scoring.
The next meet will be here on
Tuesday, April 29, as the Pointers
host St. Norberta and Lakeland at
Oshkosh will invade Point for the annual duel meet. Oshkosh is surprisingly strong and it should be a very
interesting meet.

Patricia Davis, Lois Klatt, Janice

films, learned the technique required to make a variety of puppets,
attended a creative dramatics demonstration, discussion groups concerning c o st u m e s , movements,
settings, and religious drama. Martha Bennett King, the famous ballad
singer, preformed.
A luncheon for conferees was
served, where the group separated
to various tables. At each table
was seated an authority in the
field of children's dramatics, ineluding · the most laudable Miss
Winnifred Ward.
Few colleges were represented in
the 59 0 delegates which participated in the activities. Many of
those who attended came from professional theaters, public schools,
creative dramatic programs, civic
theaters, and Junior Leagues which
sponsor theaters.

Alice in Dairyland
Opens Wide the Door
"It's the chance of a lifetime."
Those were the words of Miss
Nancy K. Trewyn, Whitewater, when
asked about her reign as Wisconsin's
1957 Alice in Dairyland. As "Alice",
Nancy works full time for the Wisconsin Department of Agriculture
promoting the Badger State's famed
agricultural products throughout the
state and nation.
"Every Wisconsin girl between 18
and 2 5 should enter this program for
a really wonderful experience", Nancy said as she discussed the plans for
the 19 58 Alice in Dairyland Princess
Program which begins April 1. "My
work as 'Alice' has taken me all over
the nation. So far, I've probably
traveled close to 100,000 miles to
such cities as Miami, Florida; Memphis, Tennessee; Philadephia, Pa. ;
Los Angeles, California ; Salt Lake
City, Utah; Billings, Montana, 'and
scores of others. It is hard, but
wonderful work."
blanks are available at local newspapers, radio and television stations,
county agent and dairy plant offices.
The main requirements are that girls
must be at least 18 and not over 25
on April 30, 1958 and have been
a resident of Wisconsin for at least
one year", she pointed out.
Musing over her ·experiences in
last year's contest Nancy said, "It
was exciting to go to the Regional
contest and be interviewed. The
Regional city was a wonderful host
and treated us like queens with a
luncheon, parade, banquet, and
everything; and, when I was named
as one of the two girls to represent

like I was walking on air."
"The three other princesses from

Vacation in Florida
"Florida here we come!" This
was the cry of five Central State
College co-eds, Joan Jeckle, Mary
Ann Hoppe, Rosella Braun, Marlene
Hanke, and Mary Jo Buggs, who
traveled to the Sunshine State during the Easter vacation. They were
gone nine days, four of them being
spent driving.
Interesting litt],e experiences began almost immediately. When the
girls got to the hotel in Fort Lauderdale in which they had reserved
a suite, they discovered it was a
"rat-trap." They didn't appreciate
the beer can under the bed and
spent the whole afternoon looking
for more suitable accommodations.
The motel they finally chose was
