CO ACH BERG

This coming Saturd; y the Point­ers will officially open the Southern

~o~=~~':sts:s~l~s;h~?t~h:lji~utr~i itional rivals, the OShkosh Titans.

Oshkosh will ?f out to av·enge the 12-0 defeat inflicted by the Pointers last year; ~owever, the up and com­ing Bergmen are determined to make it two straight victories .

A comparison of the two teams shows that Oshkosh has played •one non-conference game with North Mi­chigan college and was defeated 6-0. On the other hand, Point in two starts has tied Eau Claire 7-7 in one tilt, while taking a 54-o" setback at the hands of St. Norbert's in their previous game.

Since North Michigan is little known in central Wisconsin ci rcles, the strength of the Titans can nrit be estimated. On the basis of post Point-Oshkosh clashes the game promises to be. a closely fought one . Revisions are stm being mad·e in the Point line, and consequently Coach Berg has not announced any starting lineup.

28 Freshmen Attend CS TC on Scholarship

A total of 28 Freshmen were awarde~ scholarsh ips at CSTC this year on the basis of their high school scholastic record and · qualities of leadersh ip. '

Louie Chr isti ansen took off a few seconds to thank his wife for pre­senting him with a son and .still made it back on time. for the next class. Albeit, students and facu lty members survived with minor casualties. Largely responsible for this was an adequate assembly prog ram which boosted the morale.

We were listening to the radio the other night when we began to won­d~r what ever became of the limer­ick. It used to be 1 very potent wea­pon in hum·or. So we hereby reso lve to launch a limerick revi\'al cam­paign·. How is this for a star t ?

There was a young maid from N ebras.ka

Remember the Student Council is your voice in school af. fa irs and consequently should be of interest to you ali.Jio ou r vote goes to you, Bill". Good luck to you and the Counci l this year.

Here we are we ll into the Davis­Blanchard, Harde r and Hirsch sea­son, and the Pointers looked great against a good Eau Claire team on Saturday. It was a close, hard .fought game and that . 7-7 tie serves not ice to the rest of the confe rence that the Purple and Gold is not to be push­ed around this year. So Coach Berg and the boys will be on their toes for thei r conference games. We're all behind you, g ridders, go get the rest of them.

We.just received one of those new (highly adverti sed) founta in pens. It's the on ly one like it in existence. Jt doesn 't write at high altitudes, it doesn't write unde r water , and it doesn't write in the dark. The only thing it wi ll do is write on paper. Just a cheap model. They g ive you a sample copy of a last will and testa­ment with it so you can bequeath it to your oldest living child. That is keeping it in the fa mily. If Ozark Ike doesn ' t win that game pretty soon we'll give the pen to him. May­be this will help him do something write. Oh, brother!

Say, do you have your dates lined up for the big Homecoming week­end of October 18..19? You had bet· ter see to it right away. (We're still looking, ourselv:es!) There aren't many co-eds avaHa.ble this year, a sad state of affairs, so he who gets there fir:stest with the m05test will wiQ the

chance to enjoy one big ti me. Get going. so you won't miss the big date.

Have you been listening to any .of the so,ca lled comedy p rograms on the big networks lately? \'v'e wonder­ed what caused the meat sho rtage. They are the reason we can't have any ham with our eggs. Of cou rse, this column just uses choppe~ meat so no one wi ll miss just one meat ball.

At this juncture The Seeing Eye would like to thank President Han­sen fo r the very in formative talk he gave at the convocation ceremony last Thursday. His advice and the message he gave us will be well heed­ed . This was a new experience for most of us and the convocation gets our vote for an annua l performance.

For sa le cheap, one each plaste r cast, size 38, condition moldy. This cast extends from the shoulders to the hips and is p robably the answer to those of you who object to being pushed around in the hall s. For de­tails see Art Swenson, who is more than glad to be rid of the silly thing.

For shame ! Not a so litary co-ed enrolled in the astronomy course! Seems to us that there would be a wonderful opportunity for ex tra· cu rricu lar study in th is fie ld.

We have hea rd that Marcus Born­fleth is organizing the College Play­boys, a dance band composed st ric tly or college students. There was a sim­ilar o rganization here in the college before the war. The group wi ll be a seven to twelve l'iece band and it is rumored they will make thei r fi rst appea rance at an all -school party to be given soon. Good luck, fe llows!!

Men's Physical Exams W ill Be Given Oct. 14

Men ! Are you r arteries hardening? Are your respect ive posteriors ret ro ­g ressi ng into exorbitant propor­tions?

Here is you r chance to fin d the answer to the foregoing questions. A physical examination of all male students wi ll begin at 9:30 a.m., Monday, October 14, in the college dispensa ry and will continue until all men have been examined.

A schedu le of appointments wi ll be made by Miss Mary Neuberger, the college nu rse, and men students w-ill be notified of their appoint ­ments. Failure to meet appointments invalidates all right to free hospital­ization.

Meeting of L. S. A Reverend Orville K. Wold, pre·

sented an informal Bible study topic at the reg ular LSA devotional meet­ing' held in the Student Lounge on Thursday evening, September 26.

Mary Due opened the meeting by lead ing in d~votions. "Day is Dying in the West" was sung by LaVerne Hask ins and Ruth ' Wachholz. After the devotions, Carl Torkelson told the group of some of his interesting experiences in I raq.

After the meet ing, LSA'ers went down to the recreation room for sev­eral games of dartball and table ten­n is.

Tea Held by Tau Gams Pine scented candles filled the

room wi th an invit ing aroma as guests signed their names in . the g uest book at the Tau Gamma Beta annual fall tea held in the Home Economics parlors Wednesday aft­ernoon. The autumn theme was car­ried out by a tea table beautifully arrayed with a cente.rpiece of fall fruits and gold tapers. The buffet was decorated with autumn leaves and floating candles.

· Each guest . was presented with a chrysanthemum tied with ribbon as a favor.

In the receiving line ~ere Dor is Ockerlander, p res ident, Nelda Dopp, past p resident, Mrs. Elizabeth Pfif­fner, dean of women, Miss Helen Meston, faculty ·advisee and Mrs. S. G . Kingston, a Tau Garn alum. Mrs. Ben Nigbor, Mrs. W. C. Leahy, Mrs.

enj oyed a picnic supper around t.he fireplace. New and old members m­troduted themselves to the other members of the club. Bess · Jones, president or the organieation, then called the business meet ing to order. Arter some discuss ion, it was decided to hold another Christ!l)llS sa le. Crocheted and k n i t t e d articles, aprons, covered hangers, stuffed toys, ta-lly cards and other- articles sold at a sale last Christmas proved very successful. Ethelyn Olson was appointed chafrman of this sa le.

Guests ' present were Mi ss Bessie May Allen, and Miss Helen Meston, advisers for the club. ·

College Theater Makes Plans A three·act modern comedy will be

presented by College Theater some time before December l , according to Leland M. Burroug hs, facu lty ad­vise r. There will be two perform­ances given as pa rt of an assembly program. .

All potentia l Barrymores and Cor­nells are asked to watch the Pointer and bullet in boards for more in­formation concerning College The­ater. In addition to opportunities for acting, there is also an opportuni ty for technical work for any o ne inter­ested.

T he highligh t of the season was the dynamic presence of Jesse Stuart, poet:-a.nd novelist from Kentucky, who is the author of "Taps for Private Tussie", and winner of the Guggenheim Fellowship. Mr. Stuart rende red some autobiog raphical data and read a few selections from his poetry.

Another program. of considerable meii'tion was Jack Rank's one man rendit ion of Shakespea re's "Mer­chant of · Venice." The only foible in the play was a performance of Portia· in a backless gown during which time Mr. Rank exhibited a marvelous sc;t of Atlas developed back muscles confusing one's con­ception of the fem ininity of Bas­sanio's fiance.
