TO O UR CRITICS

··: It takes .a ll kinds of people. to make ~, worlo"-and C.S.T.C. seems to bt' "'ell 'fe'Presentcd in most types. \Y/e db ha,·e a few types, however, that· \\;e 'could ·well do without . ·

-'.;J'lte lncist useless person' in the world, in my ·opinion , is thlt person · whl, is 1ronfinciatly finding fault with othe rs, but who never offers any.

thi ng in lhe way of constructive crit icism. It, seems to me that a person who 'takes· ti'me to tea r down the things arou nd him should a lso take a litlle time to suggest ways of rebuilding. An incident of the bst week brrilgs·· i nto the limelight, (so deeply longed for by this type) a rather shnllciw-bralned sort of individuaf.

Tl'ltirsday ' in.oming, our paper was tacked on the bulletin board- dcro­i;ator"j• remarks were written ori and about it in a d istinctly juvenile man­ner .-Now the Pointer has lots of room for im p rovement ; every paper has ; and the editor and staff wi ll be the fir t to adm it this. It is the editorial policy of thi s publication to request and take advantage of construct ive Cr (li9 ~!JL .

·· '\Y/c: find some openly critical readers however, who seem to be at a loss fo, words when asked for suggestions. They don·t like the paper­but - neither do they know why they d?n 't like it- nor do they make any sug~estions for improvements. For instance-the mentally dclinquent child, who, on Thursday last, in rather poor handwriting, marked up the Pointer an,I tnlllet,n board, failed to mention what he dislik ed about the paper . .. He 'h:rd not the courage to back up his convictions.

The average college student would be able to air hi s grievance in an intclli.giblc manner- would not have to resort to silly scribblings and inane remarks. · · . . . _

· A thinki~g person-upon di.scoveri ng a dislike for something--.wiU ana lyze his f&li ng-f,nd. the ca~se of. his dislike-and, if sufficiently irked ·will offer the ben,f1ts of h ,s ability and thought to the ca users of his discomfo rt.

I feel su re th~t the latter type is by far in the majority in our school. Prove ' it by writing up your suggestions and putting them in the Pointer Mailbox, or by giving t~em to some member of the staff.

'. And mea?,~hile- J.' ip;rngine that the v~in·, shallowbrainecl and im­compete'nt 1ncf1v1dual who has caused th is epistle to be written will read th1t,L:intf ro~h .to a ·mir.ror to, p;een and admire his egotistical 'self- This 1s the .. h1i;h point of. his moronic caceer- He is, for a very, very brief moment, ,n the l1mel1ght he craves.

. In sp.itc.- ·of th: o ld adage :--"_l~norance is bliss,"-! can't help feeling a bit of pny for· this UTILE ind1

"ON THE BALL' Fac.ulty Bowling Team Entertains

Fwal Match Of Boxing Season

Point's boxing season shall end Thursday nite when they meet \X/hitewater's intramural Champs. Coach Louie Drobnick announced today that his team is in gootl shape, excepting Jim Hanig who will not be able to fight, because of a broken thumb received in the La Crosse matches. Though the Whitewater team has not had much experience, they have a bunch of good boys. Romy Baker, former Point boxer will accompany the team but · will not fight. He probably will be work­ing in the Whitewater corner as a second.

The bouts will start at 8 .:00 sharp, and the officiating will again be in the capable hands of Charlie Broehm. Hatch Berard will handle the announ,cing agai n in his own in­imitable fashion. A large crowd will be on hand. Corne early if you ant seats.

Mention "THE POINTER"

By Jim Duecker

Frank Koehn broke into the lime­light last Thursday night because of. his witty remark. Just as Mr. Steiner was about to dish out another scoop of ice cream, Frank yelled , "Shoot the sherbert to me, Herbert." Frank was a bit embarrassed at first but when Mr. Steiner started to laugh the bowlers raised the roof.

• • • Ted Fritsch left this week for

Wausau, where he will cry out with the Wausau Lumberjacks. Ted plays a lot of ball around first base, but is not coo scrong with a bat. We know that Ted is a natural athlete and more power co him if he makes the grade. We wish him lots of luck.

A much needed improvement in out athletic department is at present nearing completion. Coach's office is being made into a place where efficiency in handling equipment will be pos­sible. Up co this time there was not enough room co cake care of many things in an efficient manner.

Last Thursday night the faculty bowling team, winners of the Col­lege bowling league, treated the bowlers to ice cream and cake in Mr. Steiner's office. It was a very in­formal and sociable get-together. The boys sat back in their chairs and relaxed while they were served enormous amounts of delicious food by such capable waiters as Mr. Evans, Dr. Tolo, Mr. Steiner, Dr. Pierson, and Mr. Morrison.
