You ' ll want fifth row, center aisle seats, tomorrow at 10 A.M., when America's finest marionette show presents on ou r stage the most lavi sh of puppet shows on the road­UNCLE TOM"S CABIN.

This is a great opportunity for the present generation to witness the dramatic comedy which made the­atr ica l and polit ica l history. ·It is rol­lick ing entertainment for all.

Tlie characte rs were designed and executed by Mart in Stevens, master craftsman and President of the Pup· peteers of America A~ciation. The four beautiful sets of scenery as well as· the musical and lighting effects were designed by Dan· Finch, the eminent New York artist and creator of ~tage settings for the big Broad­way Shows. Tbe story was adapted for marionettes by Ray N ewton in collaboration with M artin and Olga Stevens.

Put ··uncle Tom's Cabin" on your "must see·· list. That date is Thurs­day, Sept. 25, I.O :00 A.M.- Make a note to go.

Even in the sacred gardens of the Taj Mahal the tourist is stopped short by a big, red Coca-Cola sig n, swinging brazenly from the side of a tiny refreshment stand. Indeed , you can find Coca-Cola in most every far.flung corner of the hemispheres, advertised in dozens of fore ign tong ues. Mr. Spingarn quotes the amazi ng sum of $87,000,000 as the ,g ross revenue which the beverage company r~ceives in a year, and of that sum $26,550,016 is net profit.

PREPARE NOW FOR HOMECOMING . ... At this time, a week before H omecoming, it seems to be the best

time to remind the students of all the preparations connected with the event. In o rder that this year's affair may be the best in our his­tory, the campus o rganizations should oe reminded now to have definite plans made for their individua l activities. Have your floats made a nd ready for the parade on Saturday morning. The parade is always the most colorful of the activities a nd only the concen­trated efforts of all can m a ke it successful. The weekend is one of festivities to greet o ld friends and welcome back the a lumni of CSTC. Everyo ne should join in and make this the best .in the memo­ry of the oldest grad .

You Freshmen who have n o t as yet had the pleasure of wit­nessing and p a rticipating in this a ffair, should prepare fo r o ne of the rea l memo rable occasions of yo ur co llege lives. P J>an to be there fo r the bo nfire and pep meetings. Get to know the college ye lls and songs a nd practice them voca lly, n':)t m entally. Gather a ll the wooden boxes and o ther bo nfire material poss ible a nd bring them to the Athletic Field Friday. Y o ur part in this H omecoming is as important, o r m o re so, than a nyo ne's. Remember that in four m ore years, you will be "coming h o m e .. .

Of course, there wi ll be tho se w h o wi ll leave town for the week-end. Three days without classes is a good vacat ion a nd per­h aps there w ill be fun in the "old h o me town", but n ot near the fun we' ll be h av ing here on the campus. There wi ll be o ther vaca­tions this year, but o nly one H o mecoming . The vacationers will miss th e one chance of the year to greet the people whb made CSTC the sch ool we love so well.

Nye and Shafton came in from Milwaukee. Fisher, Olk, Sport Anderson, and Greg Dorsha came to see the ..

1\fter seei ng the size of Louis Posluszny's visiting line over at St. Michael's ho.spital , it seems he's in a room much too small to entertai n in. He will be there a while, and the company will shorten th e hours.

The presence of drinking water for the football fellows has a lit t le humor behind it ... Doc .. Kulidas and Chet Caskey flip a coi n to see who gets it, but you can g uess why when you see the faucet spout up like "Old Faithful" every time someone turns it on.

Doc Pierson may just as well have been in uniform on Saturday be­cause he used almost as much energy keeping "the school kid .. mob off the gridiron,

Johnny Edwards is looking forward to a bang up time at homecoming if everything turns out right-and then men say they can get along with­out women-

Everytime the buzzer on the second floor of the dorm rinfs, we second floorers don·t get excited- just lean back and say it's for Phyllis Bain !!!

With homecoming near, and floats being constructed, here's hoping we have the best parade yet- PJLS.

47-0 Victory Proves Costly, · Posluszny Lost For Season

Central State Teachers College g ridiron warriors opened their 194 1 football campaign with a convincing 47-0 win over Eau Claire Teachers College in an interdivisional battle at Schmeeckle Field last Saturday af. ternoon before a large crowd.

With Louis Posluszny, Frankie Koehn, and Ted Fritsch paving the way, the Pointers had very little trouble in avenging last year's 6·6 tie at Eau Claire.

The victory however proved very costly, as Louis Posluszny, All-Con­ference halfback and mainstay of the Kotalmen, suffered a broken leg after reeling off an eight yard gain, a ·few minutes before the first half ended. Both bones in his right leg, between the ank le and knee were· broken ,

After receiving the kickoff, Eau Claire fai led to gain on th ree succes. sive plays and punted on the fourth down. Central State took over the ball on the 48 yard line and marched dow n the fie ld for a touchdow n.
