Illlll VOL. I7 PHOENIX, ARIZONA, OCTOBER 20, 1944 I NO. 5 DR. HANNELLY TRAVELS T0 NEW MEXICO Dr, Hannelly, Southwestern Di- rector of the National Education Association, will travel to Albu- querque, New Mexico, to attend the New Mexico Educational As- sociation's convention on October 26, 27, and 28. He will discuss public relations with their execu- tive council and will also give three other talks. His first talk will be the Greater Usefulness of the Teacher , and will be given before the classroom teachers. Good Administration of Schools as De- fined By the Classroom Teacher will be the subiect of his second address to be given before the administrators. The third talk will be one of a group to be presented by the guests of honor at the annual banquet of the School Masters of New Mexico. Dr. Hannelly, Governor Dempsey of New Mexico, and Dr. Willis A. Sutton, formerly superintendent of schools in Albuquerque, are among the guests of honor. Dr. Hannelly, who has just recently returned from Wyoming, said, l felt quite at home at Laramie because Dr. Kilzer of the University of Wyoming brought over his Future Teachers of America group. lt seems that wherever I go, there are students. He also commented on the beautiful scenery throughout Wyoming, and men- tioned that he had seen ten deer while driving through the state. Turner Elected To Rotary Club ' In the sophomore assembly held Tues- day, October lOth, Foster Turner was elected representative to the Rotary Club and plans were discussed concerning the sophomore assembly scheduled for Oc- tober 3 l. Foster will replace Charles Ewing, who left for the Navy, as Junior Representa- tive and will attend Rotary meetings held each Friday. With Arlene Mathew, Dora Kline, and Don Yeager doing the planning, the forthcoming Halloween Dance will naturally be a success. GRADE PERIOD ENDS NEXT WEEK There is just one week left before the first grade period ends. At the end of this week, reports will be sent to the homes in order for students and parents to see the results of the first term's studies. Six-week reports are regular periodic checks made for the benefit of the stu- dent and faculty concerning the quality of work done., Many schools only send reports in cases where the work is low. P. J. C. notifies everyone how he is doing. If any student receives a grade lower than A, B, or C, a conference is required with his instructor in regard to future studies. Dr. Kendall To Give Talk Just a Four-Letter Word is the title of the speech which Dr. Charles S. Ken- dall, pastor of the Central Methodist Church, will give in assembly Tuesday. Dr. Kendall has shrouded his talk with an air of mystery, but Miss Hunter, faculty chairman of the assembly committee, reports that the subiect of his speech is something very dear to the hearts of all students. Dr. Kendall, who received his Doctor of Theology degree from Boston Univer- sity, is starting his third year at Central Methodist Church. Halloween Dance To Be Held Next Friday An informal Halloween dance sponsored by the Associated Stu- dents will be held in the -Gym- nasium on the night of Friday, October 27, from 9:00 until l2:OO, Don Yeager, new social commissioner, announced. No definite plans have been made for an orchestra to play at the dance, which is to be a date affair. The Gymnasium will be decorated in black and orange in the traditional Hal- loween manner. Arlene Mathew is the chairman of the committee in charge of decorations. The members of her committee are Tim Mit- chell, .leanne Lusby, Bill Berry, Aird Stewart, Bob Campbell, Mary Carolyn Steadman, Albert Zeitlin, Ruth Baum, and Max Ward.

ETA CHI EPSILON Thursday, October 5, Eta Chi Epsilon members met with a new sponsor, Miss Stevens, to plan this year's program. ln anticipation of a very active and inter- esting year the program committee will meet Friday, October I3, at the home of Miss Stevens to plan the activities of the year, ,...o. THETA CHI DELTA Theta met with their sponsor, Miss Campbell, during the activity period Mon- day, October 2, to study the Inter-Society Constitution. The favorite topic of con- versation of this small group is, Whom shall we rush? The New Books The English reading room presents Dangling Man , a realistic book of ideas and impressions belonging to a man who hangs in a void between the set rou- tine of normal existence and conscription ihto the U. S. Army. The dangling man finds himself and spirit downcast by a freedom limited by uncertainty. He has given up his iob and is being supported by his wife. He finds this has wrought in him a psychological change which causes him to shun un- willingly academic mental pursuits and willingly social pursuits. He stands alone, unable to feel security or interest in his agonized existence. Joseph experiences waiting until it be- comes unbearable and the thread from which he dangles breaks. He resolutely decides where he must fall to free him- self from his impossible freedom, whether his decision means the betrayal of his convictions or not. So realistically cited through the daily chronicle of this man are his experiences among friends, acquaintances, and fam- ily that the reader is deeply impressed by the smallness, sordidness, and hope- lessness of his environment. Sam Bellow, the twenty-eight year old author, former teacher of anthropology at the University of Chicago, reveals a talent for creating a novel of originality and thought which is at times ponderous but never uninteresting.

That was the moral of the speech, The Good Old Days , given by Mr. Neil Cook, former Junior College director of English, in assembly Tuesday. He told some of what Phoenix and J. C. used to be like, say- ing that we should know about its his- tory and not be like the kitten who ac- cepted the cream without wondering where it, or the saucer, came from. Mr. Cook spoke of when the college was nothing but a group of shacks and traced its development in reverse from a frame and brick house to the old Junior College building on Seventh street, and finally to the comparatively new plant which we now have. An amusing anecdote in Mr. Cook's speech was the story of the original Bum- stead. Who got the bear meat? he asked. When the bear, which had been purchased as a cub from some hunters, got to be too large to handle, it was given to the Apache Junction zoo. The bear never reached its destination, and some- one, Mr. Cook claims, probably had a good meal. Mr. Cook described what Phoenix used to be. He drew a verbal picture of Phoe- nix when it was bounded on the north by Van Buren, on the south by the rail- road track, on the west by Seventh ave- nue, and on the east by Seventh street. He told of the difficulties involved in travelling to Los Angeles and to Pres- cott in a humorous fashion. Mr. Cook closed by speaking of the mz-ny coats of paint on the bear, He said, lf you're going to paint anything, paint Bumstead. He's used to it.

Page 20 BEAR TRACKS-PHOENIX JUNIOR COLLEGE .I BEAR TRACKS ., Published By the Students of Phoenix Junior College n Membef Associate Collegiate Press on i,BEAR I A PHILOSOPHY OR FRENZY? WE HAVE RECENTLY become aware of a very sorrowful situa- tion. An initiation was recently held in which the majority of the neophytes were Freshmen students. This initiation instead of creating a feeling of fraternity when it was concluded has instead created a misunderstanding and ill feeling. l THE OCCASION WAS APPARENTLY calculated by several of the initiates as an opportunity for a display of cleverness . This is to be expected as a part of the fun of the ritual. However, a sorry lack of sense of humor is displayed when the clever one can dish it out but not take it. HERE WE SHALL ATTEMPT to clarify rather than criticize. CLUB INITIATIONS here at Junior College are held with the purpose of arousing prospective members to actual participation in the cIub's,activity and show to all members the club's nature. IF IN THE PROCESS of an initiation the established members assume an overbearing and haughty attitude it is that they are serving in traditional capacity. Whether this is good is another question. IT IS INDEED disappointing to them, however, when what they assume to be an energetic display of their responsibility is resented. FRESHMEN HERE at Junior College are certainly expecting sub- jection to a good many initiations which perhaps lack virtue from their point of view. These initiations are traditional and will be the Freshman's prerogative to alter them in another year, or sooner if they do not.approve. Until then, they will be expected to bear their humili- ation in good grace. AN EVIDENCE OF THIS attitude will encourage greater respect for each other from both sides. ' WHAT ABOUT the Coffee Hour? Are the students and faculty, too, willing to recognize it as a valuable part of Junior College routine? THE COFFEE HOUR is a time set aside for those students and faculty members who wish, to discuss together informally topics which they appoint as interesting and significant. IT IS POSSIBLE that it will be a success only if the students indi- cate their interest in its occurrence. 0 0 0 'H gvf 4.4 CIR! llll Kg' -12 7, ,- -I-I ' ' 'J G 4 . .W I . mb I Q92 I.---- .. . . 2112. i' A Q4l? r - ,. ' . w. ' ' wuv isu'r mean ' I SUME LIFE m THIS uomrr ' AFTER A WEEICS VACATION we should be full of perky new ideas to im- part' to you, but the only thing we ob- served with both eyes open was Camp- bell's black eye . . . and you all saw that, too. And of course, what we saw with only one eye we can't vouch for, and that which we didn't see with both eyes shut, we didn't see. Pathetic situa- tion, eh? THANKS ARE DUE to Vic for his cute little head that now graces the upper portions of our column. Notice we changed the title, too. Never pleased with things the way they are. Change, change, nothing but change. Livens the party. I LAST FRIDAY NlGHT'S AMS shin- dig was a success . . . about 45 couples attended . . . Toodles, Lipow, and com- pany had a charming theoretical poker game in the middle of the dance floor and Bilgewater danced on the table tops. A bonfire was built which caused much grief to all concerned . . . we hear! Plans are pending for more and like affairs. WE REFER YOU TO today's editorial . . . covers a situation which turned up recently and was really too bad. I'II let it explain itself, but we're genuinely sor- ry for any hard feelings that might have occurred. Maybe this younger generation is soft--who knows? ANDREW METZGER HAD A BIRTH- DAY, and a birthday party, and tears flowed profusely down his cheeks at his great moments of happiness. But Toodles, wise people that she is, got the three dozen left-over weenies. Fudge-face Hen- derson was the life of the party, as usual. Man! That boy is funny . . . BUMSTEAD IS THE SADDEST char- acter we've seen for a long time. This year he's had more change of color than a country boy's face at his first burlesque. Who is responsible for said changes of scenery? If Bumsteadldoesn't mind, we're sure we don't. Shows that at least some people around here have energy. Most people loll around with all the enthusiasm of a piece of limp liver. Spirit! That's what we want. WELL, ENOUGH GRIPING for one week, we'll think up another list by this time next issue. Until then, H.A.A.S.U. -P. H,
