of the pre-Lenten soc ial season. wa. hclJ 'l' ucsday eve ning, P cb­rnary 24, at the Normal. 'l'his year the affa ir was under the direction of the Seniot· Class Pre­sident, Virgil Herrick , who in t he short time given him for pre­parat ion, t wo weeks, succeeded in organizing an admirab le show.

, \ s usual, each department sponsored a stunt to raise money for the Iri s. After the stunts, a <lance was g iven in the gymna­sium until twcil·e. 'l'he Mardi (: 1·as Queen, chosen from. the l'andidntcs selected by the de­partmen ts: Mary Gustin , High School. Ruth O'Connor, Gram­mar. Gladys F lannagan, Home J•:conom ics, Alice Scl'ibner , Ru­l'lll, nnd Bertha Herman, Prima­ry, \\'US cro\\' ncd i11 the Audito-1·inm and led th e march to the gym.

'l'he cl partm cnt stunts were varied and peppy. "Scandals of 1925:', gossipy bits concerning notable individuals in the school , was put on by the H . S. Dept. A ll'l'CStling- match by the Gram­mars and a lively vaudeville sho w by the P ep Club were other attractions . 'l'he Rurals and Primaries staged a couple of good p lays. while the Home Ec's came ou t wi th "The 'l'uskegee W arb lers" in add it ion to serving refreshments.

'l'he costumes worn by those in attendance showed unusual ingenu ity. Although th e finan­cia l ga in has not been calculated as yet, the social success of the ]\[ardi Gras is known positively.

-THE SPORTOSCOP, . (With apologies t o the Journal)

S tevens Point Normal will de­feat both Milwaukee and White­water.

l,xplnnatory Note : - This de­partm ent differs fro m the Ste­vens Po int Journals insofar as we ll'ill a lways be right in our fore­casts.

Profs. Neale and \Vatso n were at i\Iad ison recently in the inter­ests of our school.

Miss I rma Pierce was hostess to a company of g irls at her home in Plainfield last week end. 'l'he fo llowing girls were present : Bleanor Giddings, Margaret Gre­gor, Blanche Price, and Haz~l Pl'ice.

Harold Craney (Carney) un­dcr\\'ent an operation for appen­d iciti s a t St. Michaels hospital a couple of weeks ago. Fortunate­ly his condition is so greatl - im-~o-na- tna e w1 e ac to

1\Irs. Elizabeth C. l\Ialoncy has been appointed to the board of Normal regents to succeed C. S. Orthman of Kilbourn , · formerly of Stevens Point. 'l'hc board of regents now has three wom en members.

Presid ent John F. Sims entire­ly approves the appoin tment of i\frs. :Ma loney. As he stated, "Mrs. Maloney is a graduate of our Normal, has a lways taken an active interest in education and in public affairs, and I believe she will make a good regent."

'l'h c boa1·d of regents is com­posed oE the state superintendent with ten regents, one from each of t he nine norma ls and one member· at large. Jn t hi s state, the gene ral practice is to appoint a r egent r esiding in the city in ll'h ich the norm al is located. 'l'he board is important · in t hat its judgment and ad vice arc always solici ted when matter pertain­ing to the school come up.

i\Crs. Malone-y will assume her d uties imm ediately u pon r eceiv­ing lier commission , wh ich will be in a few days.

CLINT COPPS ADDRESSES ASSEMBLY.

Clin t Copps, pep man for all occasions, gave one of hi s famous talks to the assembly last 'l'hu rs­day, F b. 19. H e succeeded in • impart ing to the student body a needed bi t of enthusiasm for fu­ture basketball games. Every­one should take to heart his statement that a school can't have p ep unless students b ring that pep to the school with them. \ Ve need some one to shake us up occasionally, and Copps in the role of shaker is pee rl ess.

.Just before the talk by Mr. Copps th e Kindergarten Band of the Lincoln School gave a demon­stration of rhythm and music. W e'd a ll be primary teachers if we could organize a band like that.

MAJOR RUSSELL CANCELS DATE HERE.

Maj. Russell, who had been schedul ed to speak at the Nor­mal, Monday, March 2, has noti­fied Prof. Clark that he has been detained by business and will be unable to fill his engagement. The next attraction for t he ora­torical program has not been sclectecLas 'C.t.

JUNIOR PROM.

'l'hc ~u~cess of the Pep Club dance on F eb. 14 set people to thiniking of the possibilities for a Junior Prom in S. P . N. this year. This prncticc has been discontinued for several years, bnt with the present Junior class and the evident desire for a Prom by everyone would suggest that this event be reinstated as an annual affai·,·. Let's get together on this! ·

AN APPLICATION OF COPPS. Clint Copps says a school can't have pep unless each student

brings pep to that school. In the same way, a paper can't have 1ww~ unless news is brought to it. For try as ·they will, our news ed itors cannot find the people who will impart to them the news so many of our knockers find missing.

We 'r e doing our best to satisfy the entire school. \Vil! those people, whose interest are not cente red in Nelson Hall and who find the Pointer sadly lack ing in news from outside the Dorm; please make it• a point to make their criticism of this paper constructive by at least tryiug to give our repol"ters a g limmer of news occasionally 1

ATHLETICS AND SCHOLARSHIP. 'l'he purpose of this institution is to make teachers which means

that we must specialize in educational c.o urses. When one realizes the inconsistencies of some of these courses it is hard to emestly support them. An example of this \\"as recently called to our atten­tion. V{e learn in Secondary Education that it is unfair, and entirely the teacher's fault if a student fails in a subject when he believes that he is getting thru. Now we find one of our crack athletes is in­eligible because he failed in a educatio nal course when he thought he was passing with flying colors.

SHOULD THEY HAVE THEM? It seems nice to sec a student debator or orator make a speech in

assembly but do you rea lize how much time it takes to write that ora­tion or to prepare that debate do yo u consider the wo1tl, behind it. There are two purposes in having outside activities in a school. 1. For the benefit of the students, and 2. 'l'o g ive the school a position of prominence among similar competitive institutions. Judging by these things forensics is as essential a. cog in the wheel of our school as athletics and from the last one we could say that they have played even a greater part in S. P. N. than athletics in the last two years. Now, ath letes r eceive rccognit i on in form of a sweater. Why shoulcln 't those who represent the scnool in other activit ies ? Of course we would not advocate the invasion of the rights of au ath­lete for the risks which he takes arc unparalled in any other activity, but surely a white .-weater with an English "S" on it would be only right. Because of the time spent, and the work done, don 't you believe that these fellows should receive sweaters.

THE MARGARET CLUB.

ASHMUN

'l'hc last meeting of the Mar­garet ~\ shmun Club was one of specia l interest. The program was in charge of Mr. 1 . E. Kunt­zen, and the usual plan of re­viewing cut'l'cnt plays was carried out. Edithe Krueger re­viewed Y eat 's ' "l'hc Land of Heart 's Desire" ; Margaret For­ster reviewed Howell's " '!'he Mousetrap" ; and Mr. Knutzen gave an interesting discussion on "Mansions", a play by Hildegard Flanner.

Elections were held to fill the offices of president · and vice. president which were vacated re­cently. Laurin Gordon was elect­ed president, and Henry Kolka was elected vice-president.

After the business had been disposed of, Valentine games were played, and refreshme·nts, cons isting of fruit punch and cookies, were served. The toys ga llantly offered to "do the dishes'' much to the surprise of the gir ls, and much to their own smprise, the offer was accepted. Their work was satisfactory to Miss Rowe, so we have no cri­ticism to make. A Her the stren­uous labor was fin ished, llfiss Hussey allowed the members of the Club to dance for twenty minutes. 'l'o use the time honor­ed phrase ' ' a good t ime was had by all."

ROUND TABLE.
