Alpha Gamma Rho, Delta Upsilon,
and Sigma Phi Epsllon were the win
ners In yesterday's interfraternity
basketball games. The contests elim
inated Xi Psi Phi, Sigma Alpha Ep
silon, and Delta Sigma Delta from
play nnd advanced the winners to the
third round.
Delta Upsilon in defeating Sigma
Alpha Epsilon showed some excellent
defense work and won by a substan
tial margin. The Sig Ep five also
showed some good work but lacked a
good offense until the last half. They
won from the Delta Sigs with some
difficulty.
The "Zip" A. G. R. game pro
,1iwpH nothing startling except the
combination of Roth and Presnell of
the winners, who worked together
like old hands and bagged almost all
of the goals.
Only once did the losers threaten,
during the first period. In the last
half the Aloha Gamma Rho team
pulled away, allowing no scores from
the Zips in the period.
Stage Close Game.
Thp D. U. Si Alnh scrap was
close and hard fought in the first
half. At the end of the period the
score stood at 3-2 in favor of Delta
Upsilon, but Smaha led his team to
a victory in the second half when he
counted five field goals.
The losers were the first to Bcore
when Collins tossed in a free throw
on a D. U. foul. A moment later,
Reese, D. U., tied the score with a
free throw. Smaha shot a goal a few
seconds afterwards. The Sig Alph
quintet looked good in the first half
and succeeded in breaking up plays
many times. They could not score,
however.
Smaha and Campbell of the D. U.
five, and Andreason, Sig Alph,
showed up exceptionally well. Sma
ha's goal shooting was the feature
of the game. Andreason at center
looked good but his teammates could
not get behind the D. U. defense.
They were unable to score any field
goals throughout the game.
Brown and Oelrich led Sigma Phi
Epsilon in defeating their dentist op
ponents. The Delta Sigs prevented
the Sig Eps from scoring during t
good part of the first half. The win
ners got started about the middle of
the first period and were going fast
when the half ended.
Close guarding featured the sec
ond half of the game. Both teams
adopted a careful style of playing.

"Y" SECRETARY
MAKES SPEECH
Arthur Jorgenson Addresses
World Forum at Weekly
Luncheon.
SPEAKER DISCUSSES
ORIENTAL PEOPLES
The characteristics of the Oriental
peoples, their philosophy and views of
life were discussed by Arthur Jorgen
sen, general secretary of the Univer
sity Y. M. C. A., at the World Forum
luncheon at the Grand Hotel Wednes
day noon.
"Most of the characteristics of the
Japanese, Chinese, and Korean views
"an be traced to the influence of two
men Confucius and Buddhu," said
Mr. Jorgensen. "The moral and ethic
code of these peoples and their stabil
ity and reasonableness are the result
of the teachings of Confucius. Their
tenderness, regard for beauty, and
most important of all their extreme
tolerance are the results of Budd
ha's work."
Mr. Jorgensen deplored the fact
that so little emphasis is put on the
study of Oriental history in the unl
versities of American and European
countries. He read statements from
a number of authorities which ex
plained the high point to which the
Oriental civilization had been devel
oped long before the Western world
had accomplished anything.
Oriental Are Peaceful.
The reasonableness and tolerance
of the Orientals are one of their out
standing characteristics the speaker
said. Because of their love of the
reason and belief that upon reason
all things can proceed, the Oriental
nations have been through the great
er part of their history, a peaceful
and unwarlike people. Not until the
influences of the West were incorpor
ated into their consciousness did they
learn the art of war.
The speaker cited the fact that we
have ever been prone to laugh at
the war methods of the East saying
that they did not fight like men. It
was not until the last rebellion in
China that a Christian general de
clared that in that war there would
be no play, that the war was going
to be fought like a real war, and the
battles would be real battles. The in
troduction of Western excuses and
methods of war has gone against the
inherent characteristics of the Orien
tal peoples.
Hare High Culture.
Because of their love for peace, the
Oriental peoples become beauty-loving
and cultured, according to' the
speaker. Such was another charac
teristic which was developed by their
religious leaders and by their atti
tude toward life. One writer was
quoted who said that he never real
ized how close to perfection, cul
tured living could attain until he en
tered a Japanese home. Thus, one
of the characteristics of the Oriental
developed by his religious leaders and
his attitude toward life was that of
cultured living.
Characteristic of agricultural soci
eties, the Oriental has always been
noted for his stability. There was
little of friction and unrest a factor
which aided the other attributes
which were mentioned. With the in
troductions of Western methods of
manufacture, industry and competi
tive military activity some of this sta
bility has vanished, according to the
sneaker.
The characteristics mentioned, Mr.
Jorgensen said were not entirely at
tributable to the religious attitude or
the general philosophy of life of the
Oriental peoples, but might be the
composite of many varied influences.
However, the attitude toward life and
the teaching of the religious leaders
have strengthened and centralized
such attitudes. ' , I
GEORGIA SCHOOL OF TECH
NOLOGY Recently the college flag
pole was topped by the banner of the
class of '28. When the upperclass-
men gathered to take the flag down,
difficulties were encountered. The
main difficulty was not in the fact
that the flag was flying, the ropes
cut and the pole greased, but in the
fact that the flag had to come down.
Shots were fired and pole climbing
was tried before the freshmen rallied
to their flag and then cne sophomores
fought a losing battle. Tne next day
with the co-operation of the fire de
partment the flag was lowered. Later
at a meeting of the sophomore class,
some form of punishment was dis
cussed and a special effort is to be
made to inflict some hardship on the
first year men who live in town and
are not susceptible to most of the
rules governing the freshmen.

All organizations desiring space
must make reservations regardless
of whether or not they had space
in last year's annual. "We won't
take it for granted that any organ
izations which do not make reser
vations expect to be represented,"
said Wendell Berge, editor.
TO SPEAK TODAY
ON CHILD LABOR
Mrs. Williams Will Address
League of Women Voters
in Faculty Hall.
"No child labor law up to the pres
ent time has prohibited domestic or
agricultural labor," declares Mrs. II.
P. Williams, who will speak at a
meeting of the Junior League of
Women Voters this afternoon in Fac
ulty Hall at the Temple at 5 o'clock.
Mrs. Williams, who is an associate
professor of practical sociology at the
University, will discuss the proposed
child labor amendment which will
come up before the Nebraska legisla
ture for ratification this spring. She
will explain the difference between
child work and child labor which is
so often confused and which is of
prime importance in this, an agricul
tural state.
, Because there has been so much
interest shown in the discussion of
the marriage law, James E. Lawr
ence, managing editor of the Lincoln
Star and an associate professor in
the School of Journalism, has con
sented to speak against the law on
January 13. Many have heard the
arguments which have been advanced
in support of the bill; they should be
no less interested in hearing the other
side of the question.
WILL HOLD TEA AT
BANCROFT SCHOOL
Upperclassmen of Kindergar
ten Club and City Teach

and will be exhibited today.

Famous Harvard Professor Accepts
Offer to Head Department at Yale
An announcement of interest in
university circles and among those
interested in the drama is the Asso
ciated Press report of the resigna
tion from the faculty of Harvard
University by Prof. George P. Baker.
Professor Baker, famous for . his
"Forty-seven Workshop" course in
dramatic technique and play writing,
has accepted a position on the fac
ulty of Yale University.
The determining factor in Mr.
Baker's decision was the gift of one
million dollars from Edward A. Hark-
ness of New York. The Harkness
gift is to be used to build a modern
theater for Professor Baker's use at
Yale, it being generally considered
that the new department will be the
first step in the Establishment of an
international school of the theater.
The officials of Yale have promised
Mr. Harkness a staff which will in
clude many of the notable names in
the theatrical worldAlready Stanis

It has been known for some time
that Professor Baker, now enjoying
a year's leave from Harvard, had re
ceived offers from several univer
sities. The Harvard Crimson con
ducted ja vigorous campaign urging
the authorities to retain Baker at
any cost.
On learning of the move of Pro
fessor Baker, President A. Lawrence
Lowell of Harvard wrote to Mr.
Baker and said that he was sorry to
have him leave, "But the gift to Yale
of one million dollars supplies an
endowment which does not exist else
where." In answer to this statement the
Harvard Crimson then editorilized:
"Never was excuse more self-accusa-i
tory, or evasion more transparent
If official permission had been grant
ed, an endowment of one million
dollars, or of twice that sum, could
have been raised for the drama at
Harvard. But permission was not
granted. Professor Baker was ac
tually forbidden to raise the money."
