CONGRATULATION TO THE WOLVES The Exponent SPECIAL "Harleyquin" Edition SPECIAL "Harleyquin" Edition Vol. XXXVIII, No. 19 Northern State Teachers College, Aberdeen, South Dakota March 1, 1940 Pennies Reign Tonight Responsive Audience Chuckles And Moans With Henry Aldrich School Problems Cesander Accepts To Be Discussed County Chairmanship Over KABR Weekly Of Finnish Relief Thiel Brings Out "What a Life" Angle Those who saw Northern's first all-school play, February 23 and 24, are still chuckling and saying, "What a Life!" "The cast and I had a happy time working on the play and I'm sure it was one of the finest casts I ever worked with," said Mrs. C. H. Holgate, director. "The stage and production committees cooperated very well and really did some fine work." "Troublemaker" Henry Aldrich, portrayed by Waldon Thiel, kept the audience chuckling with his capacity for getting in trouble and his difficulty in getting out of it. Annrita Dresselhuys as Barbara Pearson, Henry's "crush", did a fine piece of acting. "Hardboiled" Principal Bradley (Norman Nord-by) and "lady-killer" George Bige-low (Art Atack) interpreted their parts well. Maribee Hullinger and Warren Port, as office assistants, added a touch of romance to the play. Fer-guson, the detective, played by Fred Lightenberg, and Beechitto, played by Warren Thomas, drew shouts of laughter from the crowd. Joyce Arthurs, playing the role of Mrs. Aldrich, and Bill Nicholas, as the excitable history professor, turned in excellent performances. Other players whose splendid acting added comedy to the play were: Margaret Lee, Gwen Baptist, Ruby Young, and Charles Jones. The play was put down as a big success financially and otherwise. Ashton Supervises Fire Dept. Exams H. 0. Ashton Civil Service examinations for jobs in the City Fire department were given under the supervision of Howard 0. Ashton on Thursday, February 29. These examinations were conducted under the Aberdeen Civil Service Commission. Mr. Ashton reports that there were about thirty applicants. A health examination and oral interview are also required. Under the Civil Service law of the city, a register of names is made and appointments are named from the five highest. Waldon Thiel Debators to Leave For Northwest Tournament Mantel, Gross to Represent Northern Faythe Mantel and Lucille Gross, members of Northern's Women's debate team, will leave Sunday, March 3, for the Northwest Debate tournament at St. Paul, Minnesota. The Northwest Tournament is the largest west of the Mississippi and will be attended by schools from all over the midwest. This will be the final preparation of the varsity team before they go to the National Speech Tourna-ment at Knoxville, Tennessee, March 24. At the National Tournament, Miss Mantel and Miss Gross will enter Women's Debate; Miss Gross, Women's Oratory; and Miss Mantel will take part in Women's Extem-pore Speaking. Glenn Kelley and Phil Banks will represent Northern in men's debate, Mr. Kelley in men's oratory, and Mr. Banks in men's extempore speaking. "A Boost For Northern Is A Boost For You", Is Dean Love's Motto "Three cheers for Northern! We are on the way to the top. How about going with us. We would like to have you. Plan to come for both terms this summer." "Watch Northern grow. Better still, grow with Northern. I hope you will plan to come to Northern for both terms next summer." "Do you want to be a Northern alumnus ? We are offering two terms of school this summer to help you hurry it up. Be like the turtle; don't be like the hare and go to sleep on the way." These are a sample of Dean Lil-lian Love's unique way of adver-tising for Northern's two sessions of summer school on the campus this coming summer. She has in-dividualized letters that she sends to girls that have previously at-tended Northern. Dean Love says, "A boast for Northern is a boast for you."

Tonight is the night for the great Penny Carnival and you don't want to be minus those coppers! A new feature has been added to the carnival. Professor Schmidt has offered to take charge of one section of the entertainment. He says it will not be any of his slight of hand tricks, but declines to give even Mr. Tostlebe or the committee as much as a hint of what he is planning. "However, knowing Bob," Mr. Tostlebe says, "we know it will be good, and no one will want to miss it." Remember you need a penny to get in and a few more pennies to give you all the things needed for an evening of fun. Also, you will not want to miss the Penny dance which begins at nine o'clock. All committees report that every-thing is ready, so be at Northern's gym at seven o'clock tonight.

He explained all the courses in government which are offered at NSTC and gave the objectives of teaching this subject. How courses in government help students to re-ceive Civil Service positions was explained by Mr. Ashton. Dr. P. K. Cesander, personnel di- Octor, announced recently that he has accepted the Brown county chairmanship of the South Dakota Finnish Relief committee at the request of Lee R. Girton, Sioux Falls, state chairman of Herbert Hoover's national movement.

Proceeds from a children's show was also turned over to the fund. In a letter asking Dr. Cesander to accept the chairmanship, Mr. Girton referred to the movement's objective as "an expression of America's sympathy and admira-tion for the noble, outraged people of Finland which must work no privation upon anyone, but will reflect our concern for the preser-vation of our ideals of government, free speech, and worship, which is our heritage."
