These One of Eastern's most fabulous newcomers to school activities did persons is Shirley, known as a a marvelous job—and enjoyed it member of that group of D,A.R.'s more commonly known as d— average raisers. Shirley's ambitions include be- coming a successful advertising executive and visiting Paris to do the town. Is this a slam at East- ern men? The Business Ad School at Miss- oula will claim Shirley's talents next year. When Shirley receives her diploma June 6, Eastern will indeed suffer a great loss. Her enthusiastic support of all school activities has been a great asset to Eastern. Her role as Secretary and Vice President of the Student Council, as well as other various activities here, have added great- ly to the tradition and fine suc- cess of many of the school offices. Amiable, bashful and capable are the \a-b-c's\ which describe Don Zupan, Roundup, sports writ- er for EMCOE. Don is a freshman majoring in journalism. His ambition is to be a successful sports editor on a daily newspaper. This energetic sports writer is an avid sports fan, but he manages to keep up with the world by reading all cur- rent newspaper and magazines. Don will be back at Eastern next year to finish his basic two- year course. This is a lucky break for Eastern and EMCOE, for Don's say that the Middle Age is dead. ability as a sports writer will be Does one die for changing his of tremendous help to the 1949- shirt? 1950 paper.

Those who cry the loudest about this fact are the quickest to back away from par- ticipation in any school endeavor. The Fun-Deo proved conclusively that everyone should and can take part in school activities outside the classroom. The education de- rived from working shoulder to shoulder with others is as import- ant as the knowledge gained from books and in the lecture room. The word shall get around that it is FUN to participate. Soon more and more students will dis- cover that you get out of any- thing just what you put into it. When this happens, more and more students will get the enjoy- ment out of college that is there for the asking.

Six hundred dol- lars is a conservative estimate of the profits on this all-school ef- fort. The event can be described as extremely successful, not only from a financial standpoint, but from the wealth of experience gained as well. Introducing The Staff By Shirley Baker and Don Young SHIRLEY BAKER Feature Editor cSocial c.S ' cv - 1711 By Joy Starner Senior Day, Fun-Deo, Campus Clean-up Day and all games and track meets have given a solid background for a busy fortnight for Eastern social activities. Senior Day and Fun-Deo coin- ciding, Eastern had a gala Friday with carnival in the gym and a dance in the Student Union for the 400 seniors who visited Bil- lings under the sponsorship of the Jaycees. The fact that Doctor Peterson dismissed classes for that afternoon didn't diminish the gaiety any either. Concerning the dance, (Gene Brown's orchestra), most of the high school guys seemed to suffer the same bash- fulness that Emcoe-ers do when it comes to dancing, but some of our public- and fun-minded citi- zens helped get the ball rolling. Oh, yes, everyone was glad to wel- come back our illustrious Mus- tang pitcher, Paul Stark. Paul played havoc with those ball- throwing booths in the Fun-Deo. Speaking of the Mustangs, just about all of the Eastern inmates have been seen at one or another of the eight homes games the Mustangs have played. How about that! Miss Daphane Dean and Bill Burke were mar- ried Saturday afternoon. Stella Clark was the honored guest at an announcement lunch- eon give by her mother—this also on Saturday. Stella and Larry Talgo are making final plans for their wedding June 14. At a miscellaneous bridal show- er at the home of Marie Heiken, and co-hostessed by Marie and by Betty Iverson, Grace McCaskie found herself the center of attrac- tion.

We haven't made a dime in two years. Books must be set against books, as poisons against poisons. \This dress is a little too long for me, have you anything short- er?\ \You might try the collar de- partment.\ Eccentric Prof.: \Why didn't you answer my question?\ Bewildered Student: \I did, sir, I shook my head.\ E. P.: \Did you expect me to hear it rattle way up here?\ From England there have come over, like fogs, metaphysical and political ideas that have obscured everything. Old Maid: \Do you always look under the bed?\ Another: \Alawys.\ Old Maid: \Ever find any- thing?\ Other: \Only in the old-fashion- ed hotels.\ Thelmer Mosdal are waiting only for the last Sunday in June! Last Friday looked like old home week, what with all the old familiar faces around. Seen wan- dering through the building were Ted Kelting from the University of Denver; Milt Agte from MSU; Les Campbell and Wes Peterson from MSC. Nice to see them back! At the regular Wednesday as- sembly, May 4, Easterners saw \The Potboiler\ by Alice Gersten- berg, presented by the class in play production. \The Potboilers\ is a one-act satire depicting the struggles of a group trying to re- hearse a play, in other words, the play-within-a-play theme. Part of the humor of the play comes from the ridiculous names given the characters—names such as Mr. Inkwell and Miss Wouldby. The members of the cast were: Frank Houle, June Berg, Dorothy Cohn, John Kaltenbach, Claire Lindgren, Otis Packwood and Rollie Cutts.
