Construction Begins
On Intramural Field
The first section of a concrete
retaining wall on the athletic
field just west of the bleachers
was poured recently, according to
F. A. Cuthbert, University land
scape architect. The wall will
make the new intramural field
level so that a track can be con
structed. It will range from about
one foot at its lowest level to six
feet in height.
Aside from the constrution of
the retaining wall, little land
scaping is planned for spring
term. The mall will be seeded and
some planting work will be done.
Grading is being done north of
the music building. Trees for
the mall area will arrive in about
a week. Several varieties of Eng
lish oak will be planted in the
mall region.
No walk construction is planned
for spring term, but some will be
built next summer, it was an
nounced.

These two coeds, members of the coed rifle team, show here that they could “get their man” in more
ways than one. Members of the team will be presented with awards soon. Members of the boys’
squad suffered extreme humiliation at the hands of the lasses this year, when they were outscored
in a shooting match. The two dead-eyes in the picture are Alice Giustina (left) and Barbara Todd.

Rule-Violators Lose
Unregistered Cars
Several students had their cars
impounded for violations of rules
and for failing to register their
cars, according to Professor Law
rence Hartwig of the automobile
committee.
The University requires that
each student who operates an
automobile register at the auto
mobile office with the campus
policeman, O. L. Rhinesmith. Pro
fessor Hartwig said that many
students, through carelessness or
forgetfulness have failed to regis
ter their cars, failed to reply im
mediately to letters from the
automobile committee, or have
not worn registration stickers on
their cars.
If a student’s car is impounded
for any of the above reasons, or
for violation of driving rules, he
must then petition the committee
and give good reason for getting
the car back.
Students Must File
For Teaching lobs
All students who expect to
complete their work for a second
ary certificate next year and have
not had supervised teaching, are
requested to file their applications
for student teaching with the
school of education at once.
Forms for applications may be
secured at the office of the secre
tary of the school of education.
All students concerned are urged
to file their applications at once
because assurance of an oppor
tunity to meet the state require
ments for a teaching certificate
can only be given qualified stu
dents if these applications are on
file before the close of spring
quarter.
Ward Jobs Open

“I don’t smoke and I don’t gar
gle Hi Octane, but I do insist on
NOT drinking malted milks any
where near time to go on the
air.”
Don Forbes, Richfield news re
porter who talked to journalism
students here Wednesday, is tour
ing the Northwest with his fel
low announcer, John Wald, on a
good will tour for Richfield gas
oline, grinned as he explained the
old radio bug-a-boo about ‘‘malt
ed milk” voice.
‘‘It’s a fact that they make
your voice fuzzy,” said Wald, and
it’s also a fact that keeping your
voice in good condition is very
important for an announcer who
must read 200 words a minute as
is required of the Richfield re
porters. ,
Portland is headquarters for
the news broadcast this week.
Each day Wald and Forbes trav
el to some town in Oregon to talk
to a group of people. Next week
Seattle will be the base from
which they will cover Washing
ton.
All roads may not lead to Hol
lywood, as the saying has it they
do, but there must be at least one
from St. Paul which Mr. Wald
traveled and another from Van
cover, B. C., for Mr. Forbes to
use.
Wald, who is jokingly referred
to by his cohort as “the matinee
idol,” will soon be seen in “Wash
ington Melodrama,” a moving
picture. Both the reporters have
been in pictures, Forbes working
in “Yesterday’s Hero,” and both
of them appearing in “Public Deb
No. 1.”
Seabeck Rally Stars
YWCAers in Movies
Movies, starring local members
of the YWCA, will be shown at
the Seabeck rally to be held at
the bungalow April 3.
After the showing of the
movies, which were taken at the
last Seabeck convention, organ
ization of the plans for the dele
gates to this year’s convention
will be discussed. Genevieve
Working and Virginia James will
be in charge of the women’s dis
cussion group and Charles Peetz
will represent the men.
Sirlging of Seabeck songs will
conclude the early evening’s en
tertainment.

EXCESS
• • •
NYA Arranges
Spring Work
Unworked Hours
Can Be Held Over
After Short Period
The first NYA payroll period of
spring term is a short one, so
NYA students will be permitted
to “hold over’’ unworked hours
and work them during the second
period, April 16 to May 15, pro
vided that the number they hold
over plus their regular second
period’s assignments do not ex
ceed the federal limit of 57 hours.
Students should notify the NYA
secretary of the number of hours
they want held over.
At the end of the second
period, students must have their
hours worked up to date for they
may not carry them over into the
third period. That is, if a student
has a 30-hour assignment each
month, on May 15 he must have
60 hours worked.
If it becomes apparent that a
student is not going to be able to
work out all his assigned hours,
he should report that fact to the
NYA secretary immediate1}'. Fail
ure to do so will result in the
University’s losing the hours and
some needy student’s losing the
chance to work them.

HOUSING...
New Book Room
Nearing Finish
Library Addition
To Hold Collection
Of Philip Brooks
Hammers tap steadily in the
spring sunshine as the new addi
tion to the library, financed by
Mrs. Lester Brooks, in memory
of her husband, Philip Brooks,
grows from a gangling structure
into a graceful part of the build
ing.
Into the addition will go a col
lection of about 2000 books, also
a gift from Mrs. Brooks. Most of
them are sets of standard works
of American and English authors
in English translations. Accord
ing to M. H. Douglass, Univer
sity librarian, many of the books
are first editions, but they were
bought by Mrs. Brooks not as
collectors’ items, but as live,
dusted books to read by the fire
side.
Graduate students will have
first choice of the new 40 by 14
feet Brooks room. This is a stipu
lation made by Mrs. Brooks, who
feels that graduate students will
use the books more than anyone
else. Entrance to the room will be
guarded by wrought iron gates
from the home of the late Mr.
Brooks, which will open into the
Brooks room from the graduate
reserve and special collections
room.
Construction is expected to be
completed by May 3, Library day.
