"No Social Success";Women MakeFiftyDollars From Tolo

With the date of produc-tion set definitely for Wed-nesday and Thursday, Feb-ruary 15 and 16, final prep-arations for the school play"The Mystery At Greenfin-gers" are rapidly approach-ing completion. Because ofthe play s unusual plot, andbecause of the perfect hand-ling of the various parts bythe cast, the play promisesto be one of the more inter-esting productions of Seat-tle College dramatic history.

Piay Well WrittenWritten by J. B. Priestly, weli

known Lncjlish author, the piay hasbeen especially devised to providegood opportunities for entertainingcharacter acting, for occasional mo-ments of dramatic tension and forsound ensemble work.

Trouble begins on the openingcurtain when the characters findthemselves cut off from the worldby a terrific snow storm, and thenbeing confronted with a bloodyhandkerchief, pistol shots and thedisappearance of an old lady. Allof which makes a rather embar-rassing moment for them until fin-ally rescued by the most intelligentdetective of the group.

The play is bound to meet witheveryone's approval, because of itsmixture of mystery, and light com-edy with a definite popular ap-proval.

Homecoming will startWednesday night, February15, with the Drama Guild'sWorld Premiere of Mr. J. B.Priestley's "Mystery atGreenfingers."On Thursday,the players wil repeat theirtriumph for the immensecrowds who will not be ableto obtain standing room thefirst night.

Friday night, February 17, Col-lege basketeers will meet the U. ofW. Frosh in a great classic ofblood on the maple floor of Garri-gan gym. Capable observers prom-ise that the spectacle will be aRoman Holiday.

After the game has run its gruel-ling course the partisans and thewarriors will all entrain for theCollege Building where Open Housewill be held. The old grads will beasked to endorse the HomecomingRegistry book. The Ski and Pho-tography Clubs promise a motionpicture will be exhibited in one ofthe classrooms; the Rifle Club andthe Physics Society both will havedisplays of their activities; and theGavel Club will hold its weeklymeeting on this evening instead ofWednesday. Questions about theCollege will be answered by facultymembers who will all be present.

6:30 p. m. Saturday night will seefaculty, graduates and studentsconvivially assembled in the Ban-quet Room of the Mayflower Ho-tel. Mr. Henry Ivers, prominentalumnus, will act as toastmasteraccording to Mr. Hiltenbrand, co-chairman of Homecoming.

Miss Ellen McHugh, who withMr. Hiltenbrand is in charge of theaffair, desires to make clear theattitude of the committee in regardto the banquet and its expenses.

Jimmy FinnSets DateOf Nuptials; Feb. 18

Selecting Saturday, February 18,

in the height of Homecoming week,

as an auspicious date, Jimmy Finn'36 will be married to Helen Allison,well-known to many students of theCollege.

As his best man, Mr. Finn willhave Robert Richards, '38. FatherCorboy of St. Margaret's parish,will officiate at the nuptial Mass.

For their honeymoon, the couplewill fly to Vancouver, B. C.

There was no necessity for theworn-out excuse, "It was a socialsuccess," following the women'sTolo last Friday night.

A momentary return of fifty dol-lars was realisedby the A. W. S. C.as a result of the turnabout fes-tivity.

The social aspect of the dance,however, was not to be at allslighted. Veterans of former SeattleCollege Tolos were agreed that the1939 affair was the best they hailattended.

A highlight of the evening wasthe presentation of the Queen ofHomecoming and her court duringthe intermission.It was proclaimed a perfect and

complete evening by College menwho were favored with dates to theTolo.

Three Schools InPractice Debate

The Providence Hospital divisionof Seattle College reports that theNurses' library has been enrichedby adonation of five hundredmedi-cal and surgical books.

Donor of these valuable additionsis Dr. F. R. Underwood, who1, inthe past, has manifested a livelyinterest in the nursing school.

According to the Providence Sis-ters, "Much gratitude and appre-ciation is due Dr. Underwood forhis generosity."PhotographyClass

Fulfilling a long-felt need at Se-attle College, Robert Welch, fresh-man, has revealed plans for form-ing a seven piece student band.Owing, however, to the dearth oflocal talent, he plans to make useof the services of several ODeaHigh seniors.

Men from S. C. who will play inthe new musical aggregation are:Lloyd Padgett, trumpet, JackAdams, trumpet, Frank Elliott,guitar, and Robert Welch, saxo-phone. The ODea section of thegroup consists of Charles Diamond,piano, Jack Young, saxophone, andWade Peterson, trombone. Threeviolins may be added later.

"Of course we do not expect tobe accepted as the official S. C.band for quite a while," says Mr.Welch. "Rather we intend to attainperfection through practice andthen byplaying for outside mixers."

The new group has been practis-ing three afternoons weekly at theODea school under the direction ofMr. Welch.

Adding still greater variety to theCollege curriculum comes the an-nouncement that a PhotographyClass may be added for the Springquarter. When it is introduced thisclass will be numbered in the cata-logue as Physics 50.

Probable Instructor for the coursewill be Vernon Roblson, now incharge of the College darkroom andchief photographer for local events.

Donald Boettner, second yearmanat Seattle College, is now convales-cing at the King County Hospitalfrom painful injuries and burns re-ceived in the Chemistry Laboratory.Up to the time of his accident, Mr.Boettner was an employee of theinstitution where he is now a pa-tient.

Mr. Boettner was severely in-jured at S. C. when he upset acontainer of dimethyl sulfate, andwas burned on the legs and abdo-men.

From the latest reports Mr.Boettner is well on the mend butis not expected to return to schoolin less than a month.

The regular weekly meeting ofthe Gavel Club, Tuesday evening,was entertained by a three-waypractice inter-collegiate debate be-tween Seattle College, Seattle Pa-cific College and St. Martin's Col-lege of Lacey.

The national inter-collegiate ques-tion, "Resolved: That the U. S.should cease to spend public fundsfor the purpose of stimulating busi-ness," was discussed at the meet,which was arranged to prepare de-baters for the important LinfieldTournament, scheduled for Febru-ary 15th and 16th.

Mary Marx on TripToBeverlyHills,Calif.

A possible solution to the mys-tery of the big "S" over which Fr.McGarrigle, S. J., recently laboredassiduously for several days hasbeen uncovered.

A whole set of green wooden let-ters now appears in the basementworkshop spelling out the name Se-attle College.

Rumor has it that the letters willbe arranged along the top of theCollege building over the Broadwayentrance; where they will proclaimwithout a doubt the identity of thebuilding.

A crew under Fr. McGarrigle hascompleted the new name markerand it is expected that it will beput up shortly.

R.Hendricks ToWed In Spring

A belated report gives the newsthat Rosemary Hendricks, SeattleCollege Sophomore of last quarter,will be married in the near futureto Bill James. No definite date hasbeen set for the nuptials.

The couple became engaged lastChristmas day. Mr. James met hisfuture bride at the Seattle CollegeFall Informal of 1937.

Little would one realize that ourDr. Bernard Bierman is a down-right militarist at heart. The out-break of the secret passion camethe other day in clnss when ;iyoung lady asked him whether thecorrect title with which to addresshim in class would be prefixed byDr. or Mister.

The answer was astounding toall.

"Doctor," replied Bierman,"makes me feel too old; on theother hand, Mister is too common.Just call me Lieutenant Bierman,it reminds me of the good oldpeaceful days of 1914-1918; it makesme feel young again."

Tracing back to the basis of thestory we discover that during thewar, L<t. Bierman held the rankof lieutenant in the Dutch Army,Heavy Artillery, 2nd. regiment,stationed on the Maginot Line.

"It was beautiful," reminiscesLieutenant Bierman, "Big retract-able siege guns, mounted on ele-vating cement bases, which wouldjump up and spew out a few tons

Rosanne Flynn, circulationmanager of the Aegis, reports thatonly seventy-five subscriptions havebeen obtained at the present time.If the Aegis is to be put out thisyear it is necessary that at least250 subscriptions be obtained. Withthe deadline for subscriptions setby the faculty at February the 15th,

it is imperative that at least 175subscriptions be obtained on Mon-day, Tuesday and Wednesday ofnext week.

To facilitate the handling of theexpected final rush, subscriptionswill be accepted at the bookstoreand at a table which will be placedin the hall on the first floor.

"Student cooperation has beenlacking on this project. The faultmay be due to a lack of funds;however, it is the opinion of manystudents that the quota will bereached by the fifteenth' of themonth. This deadline was set bythe faculty and no exceptions willbe made. If the down payment isnot made on that date no annualwill be issued to the students. Thelucky students therefore must hays

their money paid," Miss Flynn said.

of lead, then jump down in the pitto reload and refire. The onlytrouble was that we didn't get Ichance to use them. By the way,the landscape was most pleasingto the eye, green being the motifin which all was tinted. Incidental-ly, the land was flooded for con-venience sake. I am not a coward,but it is much more fun to stayin the ground, then just pop outfor a few seconds, and drop backdown and not be seen as an enemytarget."

Things that still remind Mr.Bierman of his former militarylife is the fact that when a personaddresses a superior officer, astandard military rule is that theystand six paces apart. Now incivilian life, the Lieutenant hasmany unfortunate., shower., bathsthat would be avoided if he stillheld his army rank. Another thingof note that shows the rigoroustraining he has undergone is the"military stride" with which hewalks and the erectness withwhich hs stands.

By Bettie Kumhera

It "could be" that the boys didn'tfeel nervous on the night of theTolo when the girls drove the cars,

but there certainly are a lot ofragged fingernails floating aroundthis week.. .!

It's a draw between Lorrayne

"Minna" Eisenand"Donnie" (Mary)Donaghy as to which one of thegals will be called the "crazy cut-up kid" as a result of their "indi-vidual" style of manipulating thesteering wheel that night.

Says Wild Bill Kelly who can turna corner on a fender and someImagination, quote: "She was bornthirty years too late; she shouldhave been driving a horse." (un-quote) You may now climb into ■hole and pull it in after you, Bill.

That's enough of past events...let's see what's coming up in theline of pastime ditties, or some-thing.

Beginning of Weekly Pep TalkThe long talked-aboutice skating

party (to be sponsoredby the Girls'Club) is finally getting down tosomething definite. It will takeplace shortly after the Homecom-ing events, at the Civic audito-rium.

The Girls club president, GingerGranger ( G like gitterbug) did alittle investigating and discoveredthat the Collegians are more en-thused about an Ice skating get-together than aroller skating whir!.So polish up your rusty ice skatesand show the ice that you can falljust as hard an anyone else.

End of Weekly Pep Talk." " "Joe Oakes really professed his

faith in womenhiood when heshowed up at the Tolo (there'sthat name again) with nary a cent.Well, after all, that was the mainidea, after all, Iguess." " "

Now that the Homecoming Queenand her court have been selected,and the committee are arrangingfor the details of the affair theredoesn't seem much left to worryabout; although we suppose thatthe boya will be doing their shareof worrying concerning pecuniarydeficiencies from now on until." " "

One of the funniest sights of theweek was probably Bill Berridgeas he was being initiated into a WestSeattle club. Attired in short pants,ragged shirt plus vivid rouge andvarious other make-up, it was Bill'sjob to go into the Ben Paris res-taurant and do his best to sell avacuum cleaner at the nominal costof $84.78. For fifteen minutes theembarrassed red-head tried to con-vince nearby ladies with the slogan,"It beats as it sweeps as it cleans."" " "

According to those on the "otherside of the fence" the theme songof West Seattle should be "TheFunny Old Hills" ...but of coursethat's according to those who are abit "warped" in their ideas, as itwere.Hey, West Seattleites, how'mIdoln'? " » "

The dramatic club contest be-tween the four different classeshas been postponed for two weeksand will now be held on March 7.The cast of each production is start-ing now to work hard for the tendollar prize. This contest is beingsponsored by the Dramatic club,and the money willgo into the classtreasury. " " "

A group of the more-interestedstudents under the direction ofFather Peronteau are gatheringwith seniors of various high schoolsfor the purpose of arousing inter-est in Seattle College. It's a goodidea, and one way to increase thealready rapidly increasing enroll-ment. Lots of luck.

Congratulations to Father Nlck-ols for added Improvement on thealready much improved campusgrounds. The superintendent ofgrounds announces that bigger andbetter improvements are forth-coming.

That new door "this" side of theChemistry lab is the best Idea we'veheard of in a long timel The pur-pose, which is as obvious as theevidence, is to prevent the 804from permeating the halls of ourfair College. Nice work!

Who? What? Where? When? How?The hand of mystery stretches over the Greenfingers

Hotel. The knowledge of a darkened crime remains un-known and there in the snowbound hostelry a shiek ringsout and three shots are heard. Where had she gone? Whowas she? Who did it? Will the great detective find out?Was the ham sandwich poisoned or was ithis indigestion?

The hotel manageress, whatshrouds her past? Why the suddendislike for black rum and why theprying schemes of the maid? Thecute little flirt has a certain waywith the chef or has she?If you want to know all the an-

swers you had better see "TheMystery at Greenfingers." And letme tell you that if you don't youare certainly missing a good betand if you do you will be kept onpins and needles until the verylast minute.

You'll wonder where the car wentto and who was in it and whythe bar was so popular. I did andI know you will.

There's one thing about this playthat is different. A seasoned audi-

ence cannot, and Idefy them to,discover the villain until the laatcurtain.Itried to find out and noteven the cast could tell me untilthey were allowed to go throughthe third act.

'Ifthe cast is as good on the stage

as they are in real life, in otherphnses, they will "wow" them andyou certainly wont be wasting anevening or a cent by seeing thisplay.

Please as a matter of schoolspirit and as a showing for theOld Grads attend this play andmake a showing that the schooland faculty and all of us will beproud and happy to remember nowand in future years.

UNDER THE STARS

"GreatThingsComeInSmallPieces"

Some centuries ago someone got the ideaof combining the two strains of thought"That all the world is a stage" and that"Great things come in small pieces"; theresult,Puppets.

Surely everyone sometime or other hasseen apuppet show or has come incontactwith puppetry, hand puppets, marionettesor personal pupets. Punch and Judy, Han-sel and Gretel, and all the rest has madethe Puppets a part of nearly every child'slife.

The whole world has become puppetconscious since the Great Tony Sarg hasmade live again the lives and merrimentof the marionettes of old ballads and new"Swing" numbers.

On the miniature stage they appear tobe dwarfish figures possessinghuman qual-ities but back stage is where one sees thereal kingdom. The animated features ofthe faces, the real life motions of the armsand legs, and the well dressed up-to-dateforms show the work and struggle thatgoes on to bring about the apparent en-joyment of the audience.Eu

D.V.C.Ihad been in the tiny village of

Anadarko for approximately threehours before Icould see anythingnice about it. Iwas standing inthe midst of some gourd vines,which had first drawn my atten-tion because of the strange objectsgrowing on them, when Imade upmy mind to get a view of thecountry from the barn's hay-loft.I was rewarded for my climb.Across the red, red, sand rose astrange looking hill. In some man-ner it was fascinating, though de-void of anything really green.

The almost intolerable heat ofan Oklahoma day and the scorchedearth were suddenly unimportantas I walked up the hillside. Ap-parently, the place had been anorchard at one time for there werecountless apple trees, dull and en-tirely fruitless. Sassafras, too, andhundreds of obnoxious bushesready to clutch and tear as theyreached out. Weeds and sand burrsdid their best to1 discourage mytour, but an old orchard is an in-teresting strong-hold. I found itfull of the chard that exists in allnature and doubly worthy for itsage.It was nearing sunset as Istop-

ped to rest before returning to thehouse. The sky was becomingopaque where before It had beena blue of blinding Intensity. A coolbreeze was rising robbing the op-pressive atmosphere of heat andsilence.

The rustling of leaves was likea myriad of tiny voices chattering.The breeze blew stronger, liftingthe dust from its rest, and siftedit on to my face. The whole scenebecame foreign as the single sha-dows melted into one that spreadover the hill.

Standing, Ibreathed in the coolair and slowly started back won-dering if all the tomorrows couldbe as hot and lifeless as that dayhad been. Evening had at lastdescended.

Well, here we are again, writing thisruddycolumn. And a fine bra task itis, too.(Sit down, you in the front row there andstop yoursilly screaming.)

Let us pauseand, with abrief tear,markthe passing of an era.Theera of the OpenDoor in the Chemistry Department. For,with the installation of an airtight doorand partition in the lower floor hall, thechemistry lab has been, for the first time inS. C. history,successfully isolated from therest of the school. This is known, broadly,as progress.

Few have heard of the chemistry lab,even fewer have seen it, but the studentdoesn't live (or breath) who hasn't smelledthe chemistry lab (and a few don't livewho have, too). Now, with this last avenueof sensible knowledge cut off, the chem-istry lab will become a forgotten domain.

We visited it once. It was in the springof '36. Never shall we forget the scene ofthe low vaulted cavern, hung with stalac-tites, gloomy with the vapors of sulfurdioxide, the Chem Majors now and thendiscernable as they scurried about or pa-tiently tended bubbling stills and simmer-ingvials.

The instructor hailed a Major, who ap-proached shyly, gnome-like in his rubberapron. "One of my boys," said the instruc-tor fondly, a tearglistening inhis eye as hechoked on a whiff of chlorine.

Once a year, in June, the fourth-yearChemistry Majors are rounded up, given acoat of whitewash, a cap and gown, andre graduated with the rest. This will soonbe ouronly contct with those below— Stop,ohmortal, and shed a tear for the passageof an era! * * * *

Contrary to our usual custom (we'requite contrary, ordinarily), we print a let-ter (well, all right, the letter), because wefeel that both the public and the individualwill benefit from its discussion.

DearMr. For A' That:Ihave a very perplexing problem. My

small son (age 23) has a very bad habitof giggling on any and all occasions, nomatter what is said or done. This is veryembarrassing to me. How canIsolve thisproblem?

signed,WORRIED.

Dear Worried :Yours is a very serious problem so I

might as well speak straight from theshoulder. The only real cure of your son'saffliction will be effected only by his ma-turity.Until that happy time youmust con-tent yourself with stop-gap remedies

—negative devices that will prevent undueembarrassment. Here are a few:

Every time your son giggles, you couldburst into immoderate laughter. If youkeep this up long enough, you will bothbe classed as wits and no further noticewill be taken or you.

Or, you could, by tightly taping yourson's chest, restrict his breathing to apointwhere his giggle would become only ameretitter.In fact, youcould restrict his breath-ing to a point where it would be nil,whichwould be a peachy solution to the wholething.

Then,again, by striking your son lightlyat the base of the skull with a blunt in-strument youcan stunhim so he just won'tcare about giggling. This method has theadvantage of beingcumulative ineffect, asthe little cuss will soon become so punchdrunk he couldn't giggle even if he so de-sired. Take your pick and leave the restto nature.

(If you have a problem or worry, thiscolumn will be glad to try to answer (inits humble way) them and provide a solu-tion, even as we have done for Worried.)

With the first trip set down inthe books on the historical side,the Ski Club of Seattle College hasyet to start planning for the sec-ond trek up, according to word re-leased to the Spectator. The in-dividual members are joining to-gether in groups (though not asthe Ski Club) and are taking Sun-day trips to Naches Pass. RayRichards has been active in or-ganizing the members to makethese trips on the bus running fromthe University district.

President Jack Kearny statedthat a trip will be organized lateron in the season, and with thisprospect in view the members arepassing the word along concerningthe fine time that was had on thelast trip. These treks are held forthe students and all are invited tocome, especially the beginners whohave a yen for skiing.

Vikings TrounceS-C. Squad 55-25

Bowing to superior talent lastFriday night, February 3, the SChoop five dropped a decision tothe rangy Belllngham Normalsquad, 55-25. Although playing thegame in their home gym theChieftains were no match for thespeed and all-around shooting abil-ity of the Vikings.

Starring for the home guardwere "Windy Joe Reynolds," highscorer with six points and CaptainFreddie Conyne. Leading the visi-tors' high powered attack wereAndreen and Moses.

The Spectator sports staff hasjust compiled the total points madeby each player on the Seattle Col-lege hoop team. These figures arereleased through the courtesy ofJud Todd, press agent for theChiefs. The total points and thefouls for each man are as follows:

"Berridge was forced to leave thesquad because of injuries incurredin an automobile accident.It is interesting to note that the

two men who are co-holders of the"bad boy" title are the captain andReynolds. Both of these men pouron the heat in every game theyplay— and often with devastatingresults. Another interesting fea-ture is thatJoe Merrlck, last year'shigh scorer, is the third highestthis year. Critics say that Merrickis playing the best ball of hiscareer, and the fewer points mayexplain the reason for that claim.

John Katica, brilliant newcomer,is leading by a 22 point margin,and will stay in front if he con-tinues his dynamic bombardmentof the hoop. It will be .hard forKatica to catch up to Merrick'srecord of last year, however. Thesefigures run from the Police gameto the present.

One of the hottest battles inany league for second place is be-ing waged in the Spectator intra-mural league. Larson's Lemonsstill have a firm hold on the topof the pile but the spot is not sosafe. Here is how the leaguestands after two weeks of battling.

P.S.: Keep fighting, boys, youstill have a chance to get in theplayoff for the big prize.

Last Wednesday, the Semsshowed a brilliant passing attack,good checking and smooth teamwork. They were fought all the wayby Charley's Chumps but the Semsput on a fighting finish to win25-24.

Thursday last, the Lemons werelooking for a tough battle withthe Italians, but the aons of Mus-solini failed to put forth a teamon time.

Under league rules that calls fora forfeit, which should not occurin this league. Get in there andfight, you spaghetti wrestlers. Thescore in case of a forfeit shall be2-0 in favor of the club that hasat least five men ready for action.

Schweitzer's Swiehers met theChumps on Friday. The game wasa one-sided affair in which themen of Schweltzervllle came to thefront and stayed there during thewhole game.

"Who'll Be A Pincushion For Me?"Asks Seattle CollegeFencingCoach

Services of Mr. Cunningham havebeen obtained as fencing coach forSeattle College. A squad will beformed in the near future.

Mr. Cunningham has been amember of the Eagles Foils Teamand is an expert in his own right.He wishes to find about twentyfellows who will not mind taking alittle time, handwork and punish-ment in order to whip up a groupto meet the University, V.M.C.A.,Athletic Club and Eagles A.C. fenc-ing teams.

'The expenses are negligible, thereturns -tremendous from this

sport," said Mr. Cunningham.

"Who'll be a pincushion for me?"he asks.

Assisting Mr. Cunningham isAndy Prouty, a new student at theCollege. Anybody desirous of goingfarther into the subject please seeeither of these gentlemen. Thesooner the squadcan get under way,the sooner will S. C. be launched ina new field of competition. Theteam will start out with foils butwill learn the use of epee andbroad-swords as its aptitude pro-gresses.

HikingClub WillDelight Walkers

Something new in the line ofstudent activity next quarter willbe a Hiking Club, according to Fr.Francis Logan, S. J., athletic di-rector of Seattle College. AH stu-dents who are interested in hikingshould see Father Logan at an earlydate and discuss plans with him.

Hikes of one day's duration andshorter are plannedas soon as thesnow Is off the ground In the de-sired locations. First hike of theseason is scheduled near the SnowLake region. Later In the year ahike will be taken from Sol Duo toOlympic on the Olympic Peninsula,

a distance of some 18 miles.

By BILL BATESNews note: The Letterman Club staged a dance at

Fanrot's Dance Hall on Friday evening and ended upwith a net gain of zero.

The studes of S.C. showed once again that they haveno business in asking any favors from Father Rector,Father McGoldrick, or any of the faculty. It was justthree months ago that our student body righteously de-manded of James Scanlan, student body president, thatthey be given a closed dance. The cry was "We haveenough studes, let's make this OUR shuffle." The Chat-terer, picking the wronghorse, agreed with this demand.He thought that there had finally descended upon theCollege a holocaust of school-spirit. He thought that thewonderfully enlarged student body would fill every nookand cranny of any hall to be found. He was wrong.

A week before the Tolo, the Lettermen Club put onthe best dance of the year, in the best hall, and with thebest band we have had yet, and what happens?— TheMen-with-Monograms barely broke even. The spacioushall was only sparsely populated— the student body thatboasted that it could fill any hall in the city didn't havethe courage of their own convictions. To anyone whohas the best interests of all the organizations in the Col-lege at heart the whole scene, gay as it was at the time,was faintly sickening. Where were the guys and galswho asked Father Corkery to give them a closed dance?If they were at the dance, why didn't they bring theirfriends, and if they brought their friends, who failed toshow?

As a last word, the Chatterer earnestly asks the in-stigators of the closed dance plan tocrawl into the nearesthole. Maybe you were at the dance,but youdidn't reckonwith the lethargic spirit of our studes

—too bad. The

Lettermen are tobe commended and consoled; commend-ed for their well-run hop, and consoled because of theirmisplaced trust in the A.S.S.C.WIGWAM WANDERINGS

Our nomination for the most under-rated player onthe present edition of Coach Budnick's casaba tossers isSleepy Joe Merrick— last year's high-scorer, Joe is play-ing real team ball this year, and the publicity isn't asgreat... How manyof youse guys and gals are going tothe mammoth Hoop Banquet?—

It'll be a real treat— In

wandering around, we heard that the Knights are goingto do things about a sorely needed Scoreboard— a mildhurrah!...Who is starting an intramural league teamunder the name of Pasha's Pushovers?...We see thatthe Santa Clara hoopsters are leading their league at thepresent time

—those southerners are real athletes .. -

Some of the more "interested" boys are trying to promotea girls' tennis team

— well, if they can get away with it,more power to them .. . The University of Washingtonbasketball players are taking a drubbing now, but theseason isn't over yet ...The Seattle College Rifle Clubis progressing rapidly in a general northeast direction,according to word received from Jud Todd, president andchief bottle-washer of the aggregation. ..Famous lastwords

—"Tell 'em you're from the College."

The SportsmanlikeThingThe Prepsters and the O'Deasters are going to re-

play their last game, we are told, and isn't that the realthing to do, after all? ODea alums at the College swearthat the fatal foul was committed before the gun sound-ed;Prep grads are equally sure that the gun went offbefore the foul.

With such a controversyover the Big Game of theyear for the two schools, Bobby Morris was entirely rightto order the game replayed. The officials and playersof the two schools showed fine sportsmanship in consent-ing to play the tussle over, and with such co-operation,the game is sure tobe a lulu; a cleanly fought, and well-played battle will result

Congratulations to Mr. Morris, Coach Vi Dowd ofODea, and Mr. A.B. Corrigan, S.J., of Prep.

Let's Organize,GatesThe S.C. Ski Club had, as you all know, its first or-

ganized^) trip two weeks ago. The reason for thequestion mark is simply that the rumor is passing hitherand thither thru the halls that there were a few difficul-ties. Itis true that the trip wasa little speedily planned.That was regrettable. There were, the Chatterer is told,them that sneaked into the party without reserving roomfor themselves, and others claim that the food ran out alittle too soon. Well, we all learnby experience,and theChatterer is sure that next time Prexy Jack Kearny willbe sure that he knows who is going—

and when they arecoming back.

Prof. Bates Original Queries ColyumDear Professor

— Why is it that the scores in basket-ball of the present day are so much higher than the scoresof twenty years ago? Ihave a son who played aboutthat long ago,andmost of hisgames ran from 20-30 points.An Interested Dad.

Interested Dad: There are a number of reasons forthe higher scores of the present school of casaba players.First of all, the game is a science now. The players arebenefitting from the experience of their coaches, and theyknow the game from whistle to whistle. Another reasonfor thehighscore is thenew rules.Under the present set-upthe fact that there is no tip-off to slow the player upmeans that there will be a lot more playing time, ergo,a lot more points scored. Other factors enter

—condition

and team work play a large part. Ihope that that justi-fies the contemporary hoop player. BillBates.

We WonderIf Somya Heinie got to theJoe Louis-John Henry fight

in time. The last we heard, she was "coming down theaisle, folks"

—then "she's going back up the aisle."

If little Tommy Ryan, our star, might be getting alittle too cocky for just a Frosh hoopster?If the Gonzaga hockey team is getting more pub-

licity for our brother-school than the late-lamented gridsquad? The Bulldog sextet is aplenty potentaggregation.

If we might nominate as Homecoming Queen, for hisastounding beauty, and for the fine work he has turnedin for the Chiefs, Windy Reynolds?— If Michigan can doit, we can.

If Joe English can find a better slalom marking thanhis goggles and head-band?

If there will be any agitation this year for a baseballor track team?

—Don't try it,fellas,Dat 01' Debbil Budget

just won't allow for any sech shenanigans.If any of the studes are going to that fine, fat Home-

coming banquet on the 18th?

Styer Wins Pool;LettermenProfitSkiFilmReturns

To Montlake Donald Styer '42 has been an-nounced the winner of the Letter-man's pool on the S. C.-BelllnghamNormal game. For his prize, Mr.Styer claimed the sum of $2.50.

The pool was formed to recoverthe losses entailed by the Letter-men in the sponsorship of theSports' Ball. Net gain to the clubwas $3.00, leaving $5.00 yet to bemade up.

Faces Get Red; OneManShows Three

"Unfortunately at the StudentBody meeting a week ago, the im-pression was given that the boyswere to take the girls to the Ban-quet. The committee realizes thatthe double expense of dance andbanquet will work a hardship onthe boys and as a consequencemany of them will find themselvesunable to attend either function. Itwishes to make clear that the din-ner is not a date affair. Boys arenot obliged to bring their dancedates to the banquet and neithermust the girl wait to be asked tothe banquet."

The diners, all replete with goodfood and speeches, will then hastento the New Washington's WindsorRoom. To the slippery music of DonIsham the revelers will gavotte andquadrille about from 9:00 until12:30 ante meridian. Queen Ger-maine and her princesses willreign. The Lettermen, the Knightsof the Wigwam, and the wholeschool will pay her court.

Miss McHugh and Mr. Hilten-brand ask the cooperation of every-one, big and small, to make it thebest Homecoming yet.

Artie Shaw Leads SwingstersIn what goes down as the hottest band poll in history,

Artie Shaw and his orchestrahave been acclaimed the fa-

vorite swing aggregationof the nation for the year endingJanuary 1, 1939. Benny Goodman's band champ »* Pre-vious years in the swing band division,lost the title alterrunning neck and neck in the balloting with Shaw's crew.

Glen Gray SweetestAlso, proving to be a real favorite, Glen Gray and the

Casa Loma band won the title in the "sweet band divi-sion. Hal King landedsecond and Jimmy Dorsey, with sen-timental sophistication, drew the third place.

Bing Crosby Still TopsLeading the way in the vocalist division were Ella Fitz-

gerald and Bing Crosby. The best recordings of the yearwere: "Begin the Beguine," played by Artie Shaw, andBenny Goodman's arrangementof "Don t Be That Way.

Goodman is still adjudged the outstanding soloist of themany thousands of musicians who were eligible.His clari-

neting, even surpassing Artie Shaw's, is considered su-preme in good taste, technique, and tone.

Larry ClintonIs Best ArrangerThe year's best arranging was done by Larry Clinton,

with Fletcher Henderson picked next. Many radio re-nowned musicians also achieved honors in the cornsection of the contest, including Ted Lewis, Henry Busse,Eddy Duchin,and Carmen Lombardo.

National Interest InPollVotes which poured in from all sections of the land in

record proportions, indicated the nation wide interest in

popular music, bands, and indivdual personalities hasreached an all time new high everywhere. 1939 alsoproved to be a banner year for phonograph records and,if the quantity of good phonograph records made avail-able to the swing fans means anything, the era of swinghas a definitely reached a new high.

Initiating a new venture forHomecoming, an open house is be-ing planned for Friday, February17. Immediately following the Se-attle College

- Washington Froshbasketball game alumni and under-graduates will travel in a body tothe college where an interesting

program is being planned.Agnes Valiquette, chairman of

Open House announced "The firstof these informal get-togethers be-tween alumni and undergraduatesshould be a big success. However,

as always, there is the fear that notenough students will attend thispart of the Homecoming celebra-tion."

Eachclub of the college will havea meeting. The Gavel club will put

on a debate, the Drama Guild, ashort skit, and the ski club is plan-ning to show pictures of their lasttrip to the mountains.

Miss Valiquette also wanted all toknow that they don't have to' stayin whatever room they enter first.Rather, each is encouragedto travelfrom room to room and view allthe points of interest.

Advance notice from the alumniseems to be that they will attendopen house 100 per cent.If the stu-dents of the school will only dohalf as well this venture will be asuccess and will be held again nextyear at homecoming.

Students are also encouraged tobring their parents to this gather-ing. It will be a good chance forparents to see just what is done atSeattle Coiloge besides study.

Were the faces of three of theprominent men of Seattle Collegered Tuesday morning!It seems that Mr. Paul J. Luger,

S. J., Fred Sexton, and BarneyStorey had worked for two hourstrying to start a motor with a fourpole field. Their efforts seemed tobe in vain, and about to give upwhen Vern Robison, better knownfor his photography, happened by.To the utter chagrin of the three,Mr. Robison had the motor run-ning in about five minutes.

Sponsored by the students of Im-maculate High School the Operet-ta "Hansel and Gretel" will bepresented tonight, in the GarfieldHigh School Auditorium, at 8:30p. m. Singing leading parts will bePatricia Neubecker as Gretel, MaryWatson as Hansel, Anne McCluskyas Peter, Kathleen Rosenstine asMother. These are ably supportedby a full chorus rendering the fa-mous choral numbers from this fa-mous operetta. Admission is 50c.Tickets may be obtained fromLucille Volkey or any member ofthe Immaculate Study Body.

"The Ski Chase," featuring theworld renowned ski instructor,

Hannes Schneider as its star, willbe shown at two evening shows atseven and nine o'clock at the Mont-lake Theatre.

"White Magic," a short ski filmwill likewise be shown. The filmingwas made at Sun Valley.

Guzzi Lantchner and WalterRiml of "Slalom" fame are co-starred with Schneider in this fea-ture length ski film made in theperilous slopes of the AustrianTyrol.In bringing this ski film back to

the Montlake after its first Seattleshowing more than a year ago themanagement feels that the filmshould be of particular interest toboth novices and experts of thispopular winter sport.
