You Should Kriow - Fellow students, I am enraged! Perhaps you would be too
what the
Student council, our voice on campus is doing for us and to
us! Coptrol seems to be the number one plank in this year's
platform. Yes, I too am a member of the council, but it
takes more than one nay vote. Students, if you read "The
.Student Voice," submitted to the Pointer by the Student
·
council president, Paul F. Becht, you will notice perhaps the
use of the word, "control" twice in the first paragraph.• In
the second paragraph you will notice further reason for
rage. This idea of having the Pointer controlled by the Student council, which is essentially what the council seems to
be striving toward, may seem insignificant to the average
student, but look below the surface. Fire may spread slowly
too at first, but it, nevertheless, destroys. First "control"
ovet6the "S" club sponsored Homecoming dance, • then over
the Pointer, then what? The time to stop this is now! Why
should approximately one-eightieth of the student body
"~ont:rol" everything?
Mter attending the ACP convention in New York city my
suggestion for solving this problem, in regard to the Pointer
at least, ie the formation of a Publications board. As proposed at the convention, this board would consist of students, perhaps two elected from each claes in our situation,
and at least one faculty member. The students serving on
the board would not be members of a publications s~f.
This board would then meet every other week with the
editor, business manager and advisers of the publications
to discuss problems, gripes and suggestions. The board
would also be empowered to select the editor and business
managers for the publications. Students would be encouraged to submit their names for the positions and represent
themselves before the board. Then past editors and businees managers and the advisers would submit their recommendations to the board which would have the final word
as to the selection.
This is my opinion and that of a few other members of
tile student body. What's your opinion? Should the Student council ''control" or should it govern?
We do accept "lettel'S to the editor" so don't be afraid to
voice your opinions. How else, but through you can we hear
the true students' voice? Contrary to the opinion of several
student council members, no copy has been cut from this
year's Pointers. We are doing our best to present the students' opinions. Why should we be accused unjustly? To be
published, "letters to the editor" must be signed when they
~e submitted; however, your name can be withheld from
publication if that is so desired- Come· on, students, let's
bear from you!
• After being informed by another council member that
the motion for "control" of Homecoming, including the
dance, :Qad been withdraWJ;l from the minutes, our council
president proceeded to rewrite his "voice" in an effort to
state more exactly the council's proceedings. If the leader
of this organization can not recall for one week what was
approved or disapproved by the council, how can this group
then justly seek more control - more administrative power?

I
OtCe
The Student council met Thursday, November 12. The council
members were dismayed by the
apafhy of the student body, and
felt that a major factor was tile
college newspaper, . The· Pointer.
It was moved that the Student
council assume the administration of the Pointer. There waa
one dissenting vote.
The meeting was then ado
journed.
There has been a rash of com.
plaints about the College Union
in the last few weeks. "The
food isn't any good." Or, "The
food's not so bad; it's just that
we don't get enough of it." There
have been comments on both
sides of the argument. And
many of them have merit. However, no one' mentions the Union
director, Mr. Amacker, working
down in his office for only one
thing - the advancement of tbe
students and their activitieS at
the college. No one has bothered
to say one way or another what
he feels about the dances, pai'.
ties, and everything Mr. Amacker has done for the students on
the campus. Since he has taken
over his position as Union director, the students have had ITJOre
activities and better activities
than they know what to do with.
I feel that the least we can do
is give Mr. Amacker and his .
staff a chance to straighten out ·
the problems of running a brand
new Union center. I personally
wish to express my gratitude to ,
Mr. Amacker for all he has done
for us, the students here at
school, and. to wish him success
in establishing a workable Student Union.
Sincerely, ,

pie at supper, spare a moment in gratitude to God.
If you missed "The Diary of Anne Frank,'' you should have
known better! I particularly liked Scene 1 in Act 1, in which the
mood was so very well set. All of the characters were very well
portrayed, but if I had a vote, it would go for Mr. Dussel, played
by Ken Wanserski. He was so typical and so genuine, , he could
not possibly have gone unnoticed! Each of the characters was
made a real person, from the vivacity of Anne, the understanding
of Mr. Frank, the gener osity of Mrs. Frank, the goodness of Miep.
to the extravagance of Mrs. Van Daan, the selfishness. of Mr, Van
Daan, : he typical boyishness of Peter, the kindness of Mr. Kraler.
It was hard not to fall in love with Anne and Miep, the two most
lovable characters. Anyway, congratulations to you and to all oC
the behind-the-scene · workers!

Poetry Sidelights
BJ Edmund O'Dell
Thanksgiving is a wonderful time of the year for all of us. To
some it means a chance to get rested up for an all out effort in
. school, . for others it means a chance to see friends and loved ones
that have been away, and for others it means a chance to get into
the woods to hunt deer. No matter what other meanings we give
to this day it still gives us a time to "count our blessings." This
is the thing that Christians tend to do wher~ver they may be. _To
them this is a time of rededication of themselves. The followmg
poems display this same pious attitude and dedication in a very
delightful manner. The convictions and dedication of theserauthors
put real meaning into their works; I hope that you enjoy them
as m'Ich as I do.
The Gifts of God
When God at first made Man,
Having a glass of blessings· standing by;
'Let us,' said' He, 'pour on him all we can:
Let the world's riches, Which dispersed lie,
Contract into a span.'
So strength first made a way;
Then beauty flow'd, then wisdom, honor, pleasure:
When almost all was out, God made a stay,
Perceiving that alone, of an His treasure,
Best in the bottom _lay.

list of accomplishments are
Latin club, Dramatic club, Slide
Rule club, newspaper staff for
four years and co-editor one
year, and editor of the yearbook
in senior year. Bob was also an
avid music student, which his
record shows. He played the
baritone horn in the band, was
band president in his senior
year, student director of band,
'For if I should,' said He,
'Bestow this jewel also on My creature,
He would adore My gifts instead of Me,
And. rest in Nature, not the God of Nature:
So both should losers be.
Yet let him keep the rest,
But keep them with repining restlessness:
Let him be rich and weary, that at least,
If goodness lead him not, yet weariness
May toss him to My breast.'
-GEORGE HERBERT
The Lamb
Little Lamb, who made thee?
Dost thou know who made thee?
Gave thee life, and bid thee feed,
By the stream a.ild o'er the mead;
Gave thee clothing of delight,
Softest clothing, wooly, bright; ,
Gave thee such a tender voice,
Making all the vales rejoice?
Little· Lamb, who made thee?
Dost thou know who made thee?
Little .Lamb, I'll tell thee,
Little ' Lamb, I'll tell thee:
He is called by thy name,
For He calls Himself a Lamb.
He is meek. and He is mild;
:le became a little child.
We are called by His name.
Little Lamb, God bless thee!

hobbies that dominate his life

Dixieland. To become more in·

that he's "down on smoking," he

Bob believes he has gotten a

TJ:lere are only 16 shopping days left in the Book Shop before
Chnstmas. What better and most lasting gift could you give
to a friend than a good book? This month and next the Book
Shop will feature displays of books that will make wonderful
Christmas pr~sents. This month's display features biographies
and auto-biographies in both hardbound and paperbound editions.
One of the books on display in the shop is J. E. Neale's.
"QUEEN EL-IZABETH I." This book; the author explains, was
written for "the body of laymen and women interested in a great
historical persom,tlity," and I am sure you will have to look far
to find any greater personality than Queen Elizabeth I.
EliZabeth, the first English queen of any consequence, was · a
person who characterized the change that was taking place in
Europe at that time. It was the period of the Renaissance which
1tressed the change from religious to secular learning. Elizabeth
was well versed in Latin, French, Italian and Greek, the languages
prominent at the time.
She was not only learned, but managed to rise from the illegitimacy /placed on her by her father, Henry VIII's remarriage.
Elizabeth became one of the most individualistic persons in history
because of this fact.
This biography of Elizabeth is humorous as well as informative.
Why not come in and look at it? I'm sure you will like it. While
you are there, browse awhile and find a b00!{ to give to someone
for Christmas. I am sure you will find something he will like.

One of the "singingest" sororities on campus is Tau G·a mma Beta
whose members have formed two singing groups. The Tau Gam
quartet of last year composed of Karen Braem, Jean Morzinski,
ViFginia Fischer and Mary Lou Schieb received state-wide recognition when they performed at the Wisconsin Home Economics
College club section convention held here recently. They have also
sung at the Professional Women's Association banquet. The newest
group is giving. these "veterans" a rest and boasts as participants
Diana Duan, Barbara Kopp,_Joan Trickey, Nancy Vanden Heuvel
and Jo Aim Van Ornum. There should be a good deal of music in
the air when these two groups blend voices!
Tau Gamma Beta sorority held its adviser installation and pledge
ceremony at the home of Carol Woodward, Tuesday evening, November 3. A short business meeting followed the ceremony. Miss
Elinor O'Connor was installed as an adviser for the Tau Gams. The
two pledges, Alice Viestcnz of Oconto and Gail Wickus of Wisconsin Dells were formally accepted. After the ceremony a light dessert and coffee were enjoyed. The entertainment, provided by the
newly organized singing group, was the serenading of the pledges
with "You'll Never Walk Alone." Mrs. Marjorie Kerst was a guest
at the occasion.
The Omegs are once again busying themselves by making various
Christmas objects to sell at ,their annual Christmas bazaar! They
·· plan to have their sale in the Home Economics parlors this year, if
possible. There will be further information as to the date and
time later.
The Omegs gave a party for their patronesses, honorary members, and others who have helped the sorority. Mrs. Phyllis Ravey
and Mrs. Mary Samter were made honorary members at this November 17 party. The theme was "Around the World" to fit in with
the entertainment for the evening, which was Miss Hill's slides of
Europe. The party was held in the Union.
It seems as though this is really the party time of the ·year.
The Alpha Sigma Alpha sorority actives and pledges will be entertained at a reciprocal party by the actives and pledges of Psi Delta
Psi ·Pecember 1 at 8 P.M. in the Union.
If there is suddenly a burst of white blazers with green emblems on Tuesday this year, don't be alarmed. We aren't being
invaded! It'll just be the Psi Delts with their new sorority attire.
There will probably only be. a few seen before Christmas, though,
as most of the members have decided to ask "good old Santa"
for this as a Christmas present!
Alpha Sigma Alpha observed the founding of their sorority with
a special program Sunday evening, November 22, at the home of
Elaine Searl. After dessert of cream torte and coffee, the traditional founding was portrayed in a reading. The local chapter of
Alpha Sigma Alpha became a national sorority five years ago.
The founding ceremony was another all-white ceremony for the
sorority. After the service, court whist was plaxed.
