Show Pfcge Four Chtriie HrM HERE AND THERE By DON ROUSH Ho hum, spring is here and I'm beginning to feel the effect of my seventeen hours. Whats 'happened to the sports around this school? Is it the usual spring lag, or just what is it? Somehow the sports just seem to have died out or something. That puts me in a rather embarassing situation. Nothing to write about. Tsk . . . Tsk . . . Baseball By the looks of things, we should be able to scare up a good baseball team around here. There is certainly enough material in this school. The daily turn-out at noon in the back yard or whatever it is, would be large enough to form two or three baseball teams. For league competition, there would be Afflect park or Reddy Killowat field. Well anyway it's an idea and would give the sports reporters something more definite to work on. We could import Chloe Davis to do the batting. Understand she's pretty good at it (Joke.) Golf A golf tour has been tentatively scheduled by Bob Davis. He plans to have the team play several colleges and universities in Colorado. Colorado College at Colorado Springs will be one of them. They should provide some pretty good competition for the Weberites. I understand that's a millionaire school or something. Complaints Speaking of complaints, Jack Munson is certainly irked. He says the golf course is more like a bog than a golf course. It could also be used for a map of Finland very nicely too, he claims. Meaning of course, that the place is full of lakes. That makes it rather bad on the golf ball mortality rate. While I'm on the subject of complaints, will someone please put some wire around the tennis courts? As yet it's about a draw whether I'm taking a class in tennis or track. Last but certainly not least, will someone remind the nine o'clock English 3 class they're taking a class in English and not heckling? Here and There Reed Coray says he'll play anybody anytime in a game of either tennis or ping pong . . . Rolfe Peterson has served notice that from now on his tennis racket is not available for borrowers . . . Tsk, Tsk ... Oh yes, Seaman Mills has lost his glasses. Rumor has it that he has had several lucrative offers from Darrell Deis to umpire intramural Softball games since this mishap. (Rolfe Peterson's joke.) Chassis Provided For Victory Bell Wheels for the Victory Bell will soon be a reality it was announced last week by Mr. McCormac, who is in charge of the mounting of the bell. A chassis of an Austin has been acquired and will serve as the new mounting, he announced. "The bell itself will be mounted on capital W. C. letters on each side of the chassis which will make it quite novel," said Mr. McCormac. "We are getting it done in our spare time and I think it will be done for next fall, when it will be in use once more. Something . was neded to mount the bell on and this chassis of an old Austin came along so we thought it would be the thing to use." Milton Berglund is doing the work of mounting the bell. 20 CENTUHY with tht new Sta -Scope Crown Ever had trouble telescoping your hat properly? No need to let that trouble you.

DOKOS Women in The Sports By Kathleen Davis Weber has an all-star women's basketball team now. The names were announced at the W. A. A. award banquet held Thursday, March 28, at Dick's Cafe.

A.," Edith Anderson, inter-mural director re-Dorted. "Last quarter there were 87 participating in the inter-mural basketball games. Poli-"ticks" Nominees for next year's W. A. A. officers were presented at said banquet. Elaine Williamson and Bernice Mclntyre are rivals for the position of president, and Marian Sander and Ruth Tomlinson for inter-mural manager.

These candidates are Evelyn Stewart, Melba Martin, Ruth Webb, Eleanor Parry, Ath-leen Cordon, Nola Agricola and Michie Sato. The date for the elections has not yet been set. Beans and Harrows Both men and women students have displayed interest in the possibility of a school-wide archery tournament. Those students who have such an interest and have not yet displayed it, will you please let Miss Stewart know about it. Soft Brawl Plans are under way for an intramural soft - ball tournament. Those students who have such an interest and have not yet dis played it, will you please let Miss Stewart know about it. Soft Brawl Plans are under way for an inter - mural Softball tournament. Watch the weather reports because if the sun keeps shining the round-robin tournament will start on Friday, April 12. Tells How to Get Articles Published "You have to hard," said Mr. work and work Bernard O'Don- nell, representative of Harpers Publishing Co., who addressed the assembly of writers and , journal ists sponsored by the Weber College Writers' club at 11 a. m., April 3. Mr. O'Donnell spent an hour telling of incidents that happen in the publishing world and showing the best methods for submitting manuscripts. Human World "The publishing world is a human one," said Mr. O'Donnell. "About two years ago we received a letter from a woman whose daughter had been given six weeks to live by her doctors. It seems that this daughter was very interested in a serial which we were running in Harper's magazine, and the mother wanted to know if we would, please, send her the concluding chapters before time for publication in order that the daughter might finish this serial. The publishing company contacted the author and managed to com plete the serial in time to send it to this girl before her death." Famous Manuscripts Mr. O'Donnell displayed manu scripts of famous writers, show ing the corrections exactly as they were made by the publishers. The publisher never changes material in a manuscript without first consulting the author," he continued "We always work with the writer in revising a manuscript." In his hints for writers, Mr. O'Donnell suggested carrying cards everywhere in order to write down ideas exactly as they occur. He also suggested sending a 300-word outline of an idea to a publisher before writing it in detail. This wouia give me writer an impression of the editor's estimation of the sales appeal of the idea. Secrecy Shrouds Yearbook Secrecy shrouds much of the news about the publication of this year's "Acorn." Neither Bob Peterson nor David R. Trevithick has divulged the publication's theme color, combinations, or cover de sign. iney ma give out some facts, however. The cover will be entirely different from any year book covers seen before in this section of the country. The book will be materially larger than any previous issue. The "Student Life section is to be twice as large as last year's and there will be four times the amount of art work in it. Since the book is being done by letter press, pictures will be engraved, and their reproduction will be sharper than last year.

(Glen Clark SHOES Noisy Carpenters A large percentage of the noise around Weber's campus can be blamed on carpentry students. Their projects are based mainly on carpentry work necessary in the various buildings and such things as partitions and air conditioning come under their hands. Heaven protects the working girl, But Heaven, I think is shirking; For who protects, I'd like to know, The fellow she is working. (Ed Stringer) FOR MEN A COLLEGE WITHOUT AN ALUMNI . . . By KENT S. BRAMWELL It is hard to conceive in this day and age, of a College without an organized Alumni. The college needs such an organized group for who else knows the needs and personality of their educational institution, as the former students do. The Alumni needs contact always with their Alma Mater . . . occasions may rise where at Alumni we might repay much we owe to our College. President Dixon has made it possible for our Alumni to have almost unheard of concessions, with our memberships. We can show our appreciation b) taking advantage of this liberal offer.
