Dates of "Brigadoon"
"Brigadoon", the musical comedy by Lerner and Lowe, t.
presented by the music department under the direction of Mr.
Robert' J. Murray, February 28 and March 1.
"Once in the highlands, the highlands of Scotland,
Deep in the night o.f the murky brae,
There in the highlands, the highlands of Scotland,
Two weary hunters lost their way.
And this is what hapened,
The strange thing that happened
To two weary hunters who lost their way."
This chorus opens the musical production, "Brigadoon". !f
is the story of two hunters' involvements with a village they
discover rising out of the mists of the Scottish highlands.
This wonderful village, Brigadoon, is a utopia of honest, un•
sophisticated highlanders whose dream of a world free from evil
influences is allowed to become
a reality before your eyes. Only
the faith and the prayers of Mr.
'Forsythe, the village spiritual
leader, make the miracle possible.

What is Lacking?
Just what has happened to the "responsible, mature college student?" Can't students take care of public property?
What is lacking in the background of the destructive students at this college?
·
It is about time students here grow up and learn to respect the college property. Whether or not they realize it,
the money for replacing and rebuilding will eventually come
out of their pockets. Unfortunately, too many of the innocent students will also have to pay for the damage caused
by the reckless ones.
Recently I saw a scene which made me wonder what the
offenders were thinking of when they did all the damage.
I am referring to the damaged pingpong room in the Union.
One evening the room was checked about 10 p.m. It was in
good condition. Less than an hour later, the place was in a
Shambles - the legs of the table broken off, the table top
damaged beyond repair, the radiator bashed in, the heat
regulator hanging free from the wall, and the ceiling marl'ed by holes.
Some of us remember this campus without the Union,
with only the basement of Delzell hall to serve as a lounge
and snack bar. We wonder how students who have access
to such a beautiful, large building with so many facilities
available can deliberately damage it almost beyond repair.
What can be done? Let u~ hear from you!
J.A.J.
Who's Responsible?
Who is responsible for the horrible mess of junk and trash
that has collected in the student mailboxes? The College
union, acting through the assistant director's office seems
to feel a compulsion to distribute upwards of five notices
a week that concern only a minority of CSC students. If
the Outing club and Curling club feel compelled to drag
all the students into their business, then somebody should
inform them that 1,750 students aren't interested in the
activities of 50.
The Student councn made a serious mistake when they
allowed organizations to distribute mail without names. If
each organization (especially the College union) had to
address all the trash that they send out, I'm sure that this
junk mail would be held to a minimum.

Notes from an Editor's Desk • •
The Bloodmobile will be here in Stevens Point on March
6 and 7. Bob Kiefert, who did a fine job as student chairman for the drive held last fall, has once again urged all
students to take part in the drive and give a pint of blood.
It only takes a few moments, but means so much to those
who need it. Transportation will be furnished for college
.tudents who are in need ·of it. Won't you give? Let's see
• the college can give more than it did last time.

Is one student in school who is not afraid to state his convictions. In my editorial in the last issue, which seems to
have been misunderstood by some of the students, I did
not feel or mean to state that the Po.irtter must be told of
all conditions•that must be corrected before it will comment
on them. But, rather, I meant that the Pointer staff can't
eal1 for action if the student body doesn't back them up
with their assent. The Pointer will always try to bring needed reforms to the student's attention. That is one of the
many duties of a college newspaper.

Dear L. A. H.
According to your views on journalism, you maintain that the
only way for an editor to know what the problems of his readers
are is through written opinion. Now if every newspaper based. its
editorials on the readers' written opinion, there would be practically no editorial comment whatsoever. I'm sure you'll agree with me
on this point, especially if you'd look into any newspaper or magazine in the letters to the editors column, and read what subscribers write about. Very seldom do people write letters to editors
that aren't based on what was written in past issue, since it would
be pointless to do so. In other words, what is written in magazines
oi newspapers is what stimulates most readers to send letters article.

play by the Greek Sophocles.
•When the curtain gave way to
'rision, an unusual scene was presented. All the different characters of the play were on the
stage in deffirent poses, motionless and apparently unconscious
of the audience present. The director deserves definite praise for
this winning tableau.
But there was another surprise waiting. Instead of a number of men for the chorus as usual in Greek plays, a single man
was employed as narrator who
mtroduced the characters of the

Interesting Customs
of Lent, Easter Tokl
by Nancy Giffin
February-:15, Ash Wednesday, marked the beginning of Lent.
Alhtough the fast of 40 week-days in preparation for Easter is
familiar to all of us, some of the old customs concerning Lent are
probably not as familiar.
"Lent" comes from the Saxon word, lengten-tide (as being the
time of the lengthening of the day).

Mr. Milo Harpstea~, a graduate of South Dakota State college has joined the conservation
department staff here and is now
teaching soils.
In the past, he taught at South
Dakota sta!:2 on a fellowship
while doing his graduate work.
After graduate study, Mr.
Harpstead went to the University
of Minnesota where he is presently working. on his Ph.D. in "Soil
Morphology and Genesis", which
is the development of soils from
the geologic standpoint.
Upon entering this state, Mr.

The ranks of Sigma Phi Epsilon swelled recently when 12 men
were added to the rolls of our
chapter. They are: Robert J. Kilcoyne, Richard L. Broetzman,
James M. Curtis, John E. Bush,
John R. Hanousek, Jerry Brenner, Charles F. Hale, Robert E.

were feted at a banquet Sunday
night.
The Sigma Phi Epsilon grand
chapter scholarship cup was presented to our chapter for having
the highest grade point among
the fraternities for the school
year 1959-60. The cup was presented to President Tom Jensen
by Romie Sarwas, the scholarship
chairman, at the initiation banquet.
Robert F. Quick was chosen

Siasefi News
The first thing on the agenda is
to retract an error that appeared
in the last edition of the Pointer.
It was inadvertently stated that
Mr. Robert Wilde had become a
Siasefi advisor. 'Tis not true. As
of the present we are in the process of getting a new advisor to
replace Mr. Robert Simpson, but
nothing is definite.
At a recent meeting elections
were held and the new officers
for the semester are as follows:
Dale Baltus, president; Doug
Koplein, vice-president; Jim Martin, secretary; and Gary Herold,
treasurer.
The presence of certain jokes
on various bulletin boards seems
to offend the tender minds of
some of the more virtuous students on campus. Apparently they
do not realize that this is not an
elementary school. Top humor of
these jokes i.s obviously over their
heads. These joj{es are there for
those who want to enjoy them
and does not compel those easily
offended to partake of them.
With spring fast approaching,
pledging activities are being formulated in correlation with the
coming of the spring festival days
and to also bolster our" softball
team which has suffered the loss
of many outstanding members.
Remember to keep those ding

fine 13-4 record, the endeavors 'of the esc wrestling team has beeq
just as successful, as they have been winning a great deal of
their matches. Although it is somewhat difficult to get ahold of
the won-lost record, it is of interest to note that in their meet
with Lakeland, they broke three school records in winning 36-0.
Some of the members of the team are Dale Baltus, Wayne Bad,tke,
Ralph Meinert, Kip Pagel, Gary Van Wormer. They are coached by
Mr. William Burns.

In regard to the scoring leaders in the SCC, Dave Vincent ot
UW-M still leads with 271 points followed closely by Don Braum
of Platteville with 268. Pointers in the scoring tabulations include
Bill Kuse with 169 points and a .18 point average per game, Doll
O'Neil with 142 and a 16 point average and Sammy Sampson with
115 and a 14 point average.
The completion of the recent Winter Carni~al seemed to indica~e
tliat CSC is perhaps becoming less of a SUitcase college than lt
has been in the past. The student body took a great deal of interest
in it and as a result, it was a success. It was to be expecte(t that
the AKL would make a good showing and they should be CODgratulated for their efforts. The group should be proud of its
achievements since it is compo!';ed of CSC's finest and most "dedicated" students, inspired by the sincere and self-sacrificing efforts
of those who "teach" the conservation of resources, natural or
otherwise. Their motto might well be "do as I say, not as I do."
I · recall the formation of a rifle team last year but have not heard
of any formal activities this school team may have engag~ in. If
anyone has any inf ormation concerning the status of this team,
perhaps it can be of some use and interest to new members of the
esc campus.
A bit of interesting information was recently received fro!D the
West coast where a graduate of last year, Gene Markley, IS em·
:ployed. A frustrated conservation major! he_ state~ am~ we q~ot~,
"I have a job with the U.S. Forest service m_ California, ~ut I~ ~.~
through no 'fault' of the department I received my ma)~r m.
He also sends his best wishes to Mr. Andreas and thanks him for
all his words of• "wisdom."
Also worth mentioning is the Campus Bowling league, which
is composed of CSC students who bowl at Wanta's Recreation _b~r
on Wednesdays at 5:00. At present, the team leaders are: Bills
Pizza, Palm Gardens, Campus cafe, and the ~EKE's. Individ~al
leaders, average-wise, include Lowell C!ements With 161 along w~th
Vic Seefeldt with 161, Tom Peterson with 158, Bill Kostelac With

Central State moved one step
<: oser to the State College Conference basketball crown with a
70-47 win over highly regarded
Whitewater.
Bill Nelson was the high scorer
for the Pointers, having 17 points
on five field goals and seven free
throws. Bill Lock and Sammy
Sampson each had 14 for runnerup honors. Steady Don O'Neil
had 12 points to round out the
list of those who scored in double
figures. The balanced scoring
paid off for the Pointers, as it
has in the last three or four
games.
Tom Gamroth led Whitewater
with 17 points, and Chuck Regez
added 14. They were the only
Warhawk players to hit in double
figures. Whitewater had a cold
night from the floor, making only
14 of 68 for a low 20%. The
Whitewater team has been scoring an average of almost 80
points per game.
The ~ointers can now clinch at
least a tie for the title with a
win OYer Oshkosh this Saturday

Oshkosh is presently

DON O'NEIL
A transfer student from the
University of Wisconsin is the
focal point for our sports camera
this time. Known as the "Big 0,"
Don O'Neil came to CSC after
a year and one-half of attending
Big Ten schools, Wisconsin and
Minnesota.
Don's home town is Wisconsin
Dells where he also played in
high school basketball. During
his high school career he achieved much recognition, and in his
senior year led all players in
points scored.
Coming to this campus in 1959,
he became eligible for conference
participation with the start of
the spring semester and has since
been a member of the Pointer
starting lineup. Possessing all the
moves necessary to be an out•
standing player, Don plays the
forward position for the Pointers
and aside from maintaining a
scoring pace averaging 16 points
per game, which makes him
second in scoring on the team, he
is also invaluable on defense and
on the boards. A good example
of his prowess and clutch ability
is the 35 point spree he went on
in leading the team on to victory
against Oshkosh.
A veteran of almost one year
of married life, Don and wife
have a newly-born child. Don's
aspirations in regard to the edu·
cational aspects of college life
are oriented toward a teaching
p o s i t i o n in upper-elementary
education. Here's wishing the
best to a real competitor and one
of the nicest guys on campus.

by Lois Holubetz
Darlene has an English major
and a French minor. Last semester she taught English to the
eighth graders at the Campus
school. This semester she is over
at P. J. Jacobs teaching French.
Besides keeping up on practice
teaching as well as her other subjects, Darlene works for Dr. Burress and does babysitting regularly. She also acts as parish
organist substitute when needed.
Foremost in Darlene's future
plans is her marriage on August
26 to Sherman Van Drisse, a juni·
or here, majoring in history and
English. In September, she plans
to teach French and English
somewhere within commuting distance from CSC so Sherman can
finish his senior year.
•
Darlene advises underclassmen
to apply themselves. "When it
comes time to use these things
you've learned in college, you'll
be further ahead if you· have
done your best rather than having spent your time trying to
please the teachers or barely
squeezing by on a C-."
Darlene Dequaine
The ever-smiling face of this
week's female profile belongs to
Darlene Dequaine. Darlene is
from Casco, Wisconsin, and graduated from Casco High school
where she participated in drama·
tics, played tenor sax in the Pen. insula All-<;onference band, and
received highest honors of being
valedictorian of her class.
Fall of 1957 found Darlene at:
tending the University of Wisconsin Extension division at
Green Bay. The reason for this
choice, she explains, was that her
scholarship was good only at the
University of Wisconsin or an extension branch. Here again we
find her active in dramatics she played the role of the Insane
Woman in the play "Pullman
Car, Hiawatha" and for it won
an honor rating at the drama
workship in Wausau. She also
helped with the school paper,
worked as a librarian, and was
a trophy winner on the bowling
team.

We, here at CSC, got our first
glimpse of Darlene in the fall
of 1959. It didn't take he~; long
to get acquainted with us. She
soon pledged her sorority, Tau
Gamma Beta, joined the Newman club, had a position on the
Iris staff and was a member of
College Theater, playing a minor
role in "The Crucible". She was
also chosen as a delegate to the
Publications convention in River
Falls last year. This year this
convention will be held here in
Stevens Point and Darlene will
act as general co-chairman of the
event.
Darlene says bet' most unforgetable experience was when she
was chosen last year to be the
chief editor of the Iris for this
year. She had to refuse, however, because she realized the
work and time involved in practice teaching, so she acce~ted
the job of Iris copy editor in·
stead.

W Field Secretary Roth':Vell Speaks
·Adises CSC Students at Campus School
by .Je&se Kim&Ri
Recently Central State college
welcomed a World University
Service field secretary, Miss
Marilyn Gaines from the Chicago
office. The pu~ of the visit
was to advise foreign students
and others interested· in their
work on how students can help
themselves in group activities.
The sponsors of WUS in the
United States are B'nai B'rith
Hillel foundations at American
universities, National Newman
Club federation, National Student
Christian federation, the National
Student councils of the YMCA
and the YWCA, and the United
States National Student associa·
tion.
WUS has become the agency
to which the international stu. ucation and catastrophe" is indent community can turn in time
of crisis. The "race between edtensified in this atomic age.
A continuous function of WUS
Js to supply material assistance to
staff and students in need
throughout the· world. its prineipal actions are in the fields of
student lodging and living, student health, and individual and
emergency aid, including re-fugee
services.
Most remarkable are efforts
bt the newly established countries to match contributions
made to them from funds which
are derived primarily from the
older established university communities.
WUS is the direct descendant
of a relief organization set up in
Europe after World War I. It
has now spread throughout the
world.
The work of its 41 national
committees is coordinated at the
international level by the General Assembly with headquarters
and permanent staff in Geneva,
Switzerland.
The fight against poverty, disease, ignorance and despair is the
task of WUS in the international
community of students and professors.
Good practical suggestions for
campus campaign and a year·
· round program of education for
better international understanding were outlined by Miss Gaines.
First, funds can be raised through
car-washing, painting and any
manual labor. Speeches to clubs
and organizations were encour. aged.
One last word, students at Central State are not well informed
of the existence of the U. S. Na. tiona! Student association. It is
a confederation of student bodies
at almost 400 American colleges
and universities repr e s e n t e d
through t h e i r democratically
elected student governments.
Accepted as the reptesentative
of such organizations on the
American scene, USNSA is a
non-partisan, non-profit organization representing 1,200,000 students. It is the only completely
student - controlled organization
d~voted exclusively to serving
·the needs of all American students.
Liason is maintained with student ' groups and individual students in all parts of the world,
both through the conference and
with the assi~tance of American
students studying abroad.

The Inter-sorority Council decided at the February meeting that
future meetings will be held at 4:00 rather than at 6:30 p.m. It
was decided that the fall teas will be held following the one-a-month
plan with the four sororities rotating the order alphabetically each
year. Dean Elizabeth Pfiffner suggested that the forthcoming
pledging period be well used. She also mentioned that much work
will need to be done for the housing plans of the sororities that
are interested in having sorority houses next year.

LETTERS TO EDITORS (COD
Dt>ar Editors:
My experience in. Central
college for the first two
has revealed to me the deep
tude that lies in the hea
some of the students.
A foreign student who COQLf!
from a land where racial (ij
mination is completely non-n;fs.
tent had a date with me .oq ene
Sunday. Before we 1fent out:
our date the atudent was e~
back by an American studeat !Who
began planting the evil$ of
er
ican racial discrimination into her
mind so strongly that this student had to refrain from having
the date. Some of the things told
to the student by this American student were so shocking
that is was hard to believe. The
student was told that she would
be called "trash," "tagged" and
that she would be an outcast 1n
society and even lead to expulsion from college.
What is going to be the ima:ge
of America in the eyes of the
rest of the world with such policies being enrooted into the •
minds of the ·young Americans
who are going to be the future
policy makers of their country?
What are we people who come
from nori-white countries going to
tell our people when we are asked
about race relations in America? Let us not forget that the
non-whites are a majority in the
world b~ing in the ratio of
three non-whites to every one
white.
We pray and hope that God
will always help us and stand
with us in whatever hostilities,
violence and humiliation that we
might have to face.
