Spring is Here! And So is Norway Center!

Spring is here! No question
about it; we can see it, feel it
and smell it. No time of the year
can compare with the Spring
Season, not only is nature itself
awakening from its winter-sleep.
but every human being seems to
take on new spirit and vigor Life
itself seems brighter. You and 1,
and everyone else is apt to forget
many of the things, that in the
past weeks and months have irri-
tated us. We feel that perhaps
the world after all has a chance
to survive. Of course we can not
forget the war in Korea, the rising
cost of living, taxes and every
thing else that we've been Wor-
rying about for months, but we
strive to believe and hope for the
best. We walk to work in the
morning on the sunny side of the
street, and enjoy the birds sing
ing in the treetops. We feel sure
that everything looking bad now
soon will righten itself. Spring
brings new hope to all of us.
Spring is also the time of the
year when many of us feel the
urge to clean up in the backyard
and start digging in the garden.
We are apt to overdo it and pay
the price by acquiring an aching
back the next day. For us that
have reached the stage of grand
fathers the temptation is there to

Big Events Slated
Now, too, plans are being made

Place For Kids
Apdreassen is particularly happy
about the patronage of high school

too is all right provided you are
willing to take the consequences
without too much complaining.

For us Seattle NorWegians this
is a Spring long to be remem-
bered. We have accomplished the
task of erecting Norway Center,
and even though our individual
share in this undertaking is ever
so small, we still have the right
to be proud of job well done.
Long after we are gone, Norway
Center will stand there as a mo-
nument in our honor Let us en-
joy it while we can and hand it
down to our children and children's
children to enjoy in their time.
Now after the job is done and
we have paid our respect to our
leaders in the undertaking Of
erecting Norway Center, is the
rightful time to acclaim whatever
credit we ourselves are entitled
to, and that can best be done by
enjoying every facility Norway
Center has to offer 1t is Won
derful feeling to know that Nor
way Center is partly mine, too.
From now on I'll walk around
paying a little respect to myself,
too, and my co-owners, equally
dividing the honor, because I'm
sure everyone of us did our best.

last Sunday at White Center
when the Viking" club ended the
regular season by winning the

ing won the State championship
the previous Sunday All told,
the Vikings have won three cups
this season and stand a good
chance to add number four next
Sunday when they play Oregon
State for the Northwest cham
pionship. No other team in the
league has won more than one
trophy; in fact the cups
so far won, Viking got 3 alone.
AS far as l know that has never
before happened in the history of
Scandinavian soccer play in Sc
attic. The Viking team consists
of entirely Scandinavian boys
(mostly Norwegians) with Mr..
Arne Salvesen as manager and
Mr.. Austen Gundersen as captain.
The club is sponsored by individual
co-sponsors who have contributed
one dollar or more and everyone
one of us is pleased and proud of
''our boys" and their fine show

Inside Straight Thrill Feature Now al Capitol

With San Francisco's fabulous -rich-quick era of the late l8O0s as it's colorful background, an ab- sorbing set of characters are un- folded in the new M-G-M drama, Inside Straight" now being shown at the Capitol Theatree.
 This is the story of fortunes made and lost overnight on speculations in mining stocks. of ruthlessly ann bilious men who started out in dingy hotel bedrooms and ended up in palatial mansions on Mob Hill, of beautiful women who preyed on and made fools of them.
 It is particularly the story of Rip MacCool. who came to San Fran cisco with a fanatic determination to reach the top, no matter what the odds. In a fascinating progress sion of events we follow Rip as he puts over his first shady deal with the interruptions hotel owner, Ada Stritch We trace his rise to a posi- tion as one of the citys richeso and most powerful men, his marriage to the beautiful but mercenary Lily Douvane, his second marriage to the appealing French goyerness, Zoe Carnot, the tragedy of her death, and the final and most dra- matic gamble. in Rips life in which the vindictive Ada Stritch is again his rival. In this tense climactic scene, Rips cards are stacked in his favor but the results come as a sus- pense-filled surprise.
