F:tll is in the ai r and Halloween .brings to us this yea r familiar sounJs of another g lorious homecoming at CSTC. The rustle of leaves intermin­~les with the so und o f merrimakin g and sweet music as the Pointers join ,n the an nu al fa ll festival of joy. These a re the days which be long to the youth and we who are away long to be back w ith our Alma Mate, and (Clebrate and. cheer the team on to anot her vi cto ry. However, this yea r many of us wdl not be able to make our way to the Point for this ga la oc­-!-"'S1on altho~gh yo u may be sure th at our hea rts are with you. ,· This fall will be a lot different from fa ll s for many yea rs pas t and I ·hope forever to come.

After it is a ll over and we aga in resume the ways of peace, we can also return and help ce lebrate other homecomings. There will be big jobs to do in America after the war and those in co llege today wi ll have their chance to help in the reconstruction after.

Good luck Stevens Point and may 1942 be the best homecoming eve r.

to meet wartime needs a re now un· der way in many American schoo ls, states this article condensed from Publishers' Weekly, Sept. 26, 1942. Quite suddenly, America has had to rea lize that one of the most serious bottlenecks it had to face was insuf­fi cient knowledge of a wide variety of the languages used on the fight­ing and propaganda fronts . The armed forces woke up rather late to do much about the impending shortage of language ski !Is ; then they started phoning private agen ­-:ies to find out where 50 Americans with good Japanese cou ld be found by "next Monday".

OSHKOSH FOES IN GAME .SATURDAY From The Loek e r Room

~ /iHuH.'f Kulid.aJ. cu,J, /a.ch R~ The twenty third annual home­

coming will be ce lebrated on the c.entral S.tate campus Saturday. Be· gining with " hobo day" on Friday and concluding with the dance Satur­day evening, this year's homecoming will be remembered for many years to come. W/it h the student council supervising and promoting al l of the activities, the celebration will be a 100% student project. President H ansen gave the council the signal to go ahead and take over and we are very .sure that he will not regret his decision. The students will show that they can assume responsibil ities and fullfi l them. Si nce 1919 when homecoming was inaugurated, the Po in ters have won eight games, lost twelve and tied two. Homecoming was not held in 1929 because Pont played all of its games away from home.

This wi ll be the f ifth time that our traditional rivals from Oshkosh wi ll furnish the homecom ing oppo· sit ion. T he last time they pe rformed on Schmeeck le Field was on Octo· ber 12, 1940 and they went hoine with a 12-0 setback. Ted Fritsch kicked two field goals and Frankie Koehn went over for a touchdown. Fr itsch made the goals from the 23 and 29 yard li nes. Incidentally, Ted is leading the Pro league in the num­ber of field goa ls. This was the first time that Point won a homecoming game since 1934 and the T itans we re also the victims. Oshkosh hasn't beaten Centra l State on the grid iron since 1930. They played a tie game in 1936. T he Titans have not won a confe rence game since 1936. They have been beaten in fou r sta rts th is yea r. They have lost 24 games in

COUNCIL FOR THE ABSOLUTE­LY LOUSY \V/AY IN WHICH THE CLASS ELECTIONS \'I/ERE HELD '

Most glaring erro r was seen in the selection of those who were in charge of the balloting. I saw at least four ca ndidates for offices in direct control of the ballot boxes. This is not an attempt to question th e honesty of those people. It is stated in the By-Laws of the Council and should be evident to all that it just is NOT right to have this sit ua­tion . Such la x supervision of elec­tions cannot be let go unnoticed 11

We students have a right to expect that the Council ca rry out the elec­tions according to Hoyle.
