THOSE BRIGHT PEOPLE
MEN'S GLEE CLUB
PLANS SCHEDULE
If you do not know Smith, you
probably know someone very much
like him. Smith is one of those fel
lows who frets good grades in all his
classes (although he never quite ap
proaches the Phi Beta Kappa level)
and at the same time dashes gayly
bout from movie to party, bridge
game to joy ride, and front portch to
soda fountain.
He never lets anyone catch him
studying. People like him, envy him,
and talk about what he could do if
h only would. Somehow or other,
studies never seem to bother him and
he doesn't bother them. Scores of
men, and even more women, like
Smith, are found on every campus,
but their days of glory will soon be
over.
The professors are playing their
trump card at last. For years and
years they have pleaded with people
like Smith to exercise their fullest
powers in school work instead of
merely, doing that comparatively
smaller amount of class work that
is required of less brilliant, more
nearly average students. Now the
pedagogues are going to use force.
Prof. R. D. Scott, writing in the
University Extension News, outlines
a new plan for instruction in fresh
man English which includes special
provisions for people above the ever
age. An examination at the begin
ning of the year is to be used as a
basis for division of students into
three groups.
The best students will form a spe
cial section; those of more mediocre
ability a second; and those whose
preparation is wholly insufficient will
be shifted to special "English Zero"
classes. Thus each student will be
given more nearly the' type of class
work for which he is fitted. The
presence of slower and less compe
tent persons will no longer enable
Smith and his tribe to slide through
without working.
In the chemistry department, army
intelligence tests are being used as
the basis for a somewhat similar divi
sion. Other departments have vari
ous plans which accomplish much the
same result. Educators may succeed
eventually in discovering even better
means of securing the same amount
of exertion from all types of students,
to displace the old system of merely
demanding the same results. Smith
will still be brilliant, but when it is
the way in which students play the
game instead of the score that counts,
be will have to hustle.
It would have been much nicer for
all concerned if people like Smith
would have lived up to their full
capabilities voluntarily. Rigid re
quirements have helped average stu
dents, however, and they may im
prove this situation too. Smith, like
his less fortunate classmates, may see
the truth if he is compelled to look
at it. He will realize then that play
and relaxation earned by work is faj
superior to that which comes "like
the gentle rain from heaven" more
or less gratuitously. 1
Tryouts Will Be Held Tuesday
At Seven O'clock In the
Library Building.
Plans for a more extensive sched
ule this year than usuul are being
laid for the University Men's Glee
Club according to Paul Woolwine,
president of tho club this year. Mem
bership in tho men's Glee Club will
be determined .by Director Witte
after two tryouts, the first of which
will be held Tuesday evening at 7
o'clock in the art gallery on the
second floor of the library building.
With only about half of last year's
club in school this year, an unusual
opportunity is offered students to
win a place in this University activity
this year says President Woolwine.
The men's Glee Club will again take
I part in the annual Missouri Valley
1 inter-collegiate musical contests. In
these contests at Kansas City last
year, the Nebraska club took third
place.
Three home concerts were given
last year before largo audiences. Al
drich Hanicke, business manager of
the club, is planning to arrange a
larger number of home engagements
for the ensuing Bchool year. The
usual custom of occasional week-end
trips to nearby communities for con
certs will again be carried out. Last
year during spring vacation about
twenty-five members of the club
made a concert tour through the
southwestern part of the state. Some
similar tour will be made again this
year with the possibility in sight of
sending the members of the club out
of the state on their spring trip this,
year.
After the tryouts the club will
meet twice a week, probably from '
7 to 8 o'clock on Wednesday eve-'
nings and from 5 to 6 o'clock friday
evenings, as in previous years. The ;
first home concert will be given in I
about six or eight weeks. !
Kathryn Krieg, a senior in the de
partment, is assisting with classes in
sports and gymnastics on tha city
campus.
There are several all around and
two season sports. In this group hik
ing is very popular. Tennis skating,
horseback riding and rifling complete
the group.
At the close of each sport season
class teams are chosen from the girls
having completed ten tryout prac
tices. Points are awarded for making
a place on a team, and twenty-five
points to those who do not make a
team, but complete the tryout prac
tices. Miss Wheeler is sport coach for W.
A. A. work. W. A. A. maintains an
office in room 203 of tho Armory.
Any information will be gladly be
given upon request, and women are
invited to stop and get acquainted
with the organization. All sport prac
tices, and important announcements
are posted on the bulletin board at
the west end of the Armory, and this
should be watched daily for new an
nouncements. This fall a party was given for
freshmen women, and a picnic will
be given soon.

Real Thrills in
Magee's Grey Room!

tired perhaps in one of Magee's
new two piece costumes, com
bining soft metal brocades with
satin or velvet; or in a high
necked frock of crepe Romaine,
flared of skirt and trimmed
with handwork. These are the
dresses that your Tommy likes
to escort to the very fussiest
informal functions!
Topmost in favor is
Magee's Millinery!
such fitting compliments to
Magee's Grey Room frocks are
these new hats straight from
the workrooms of designers
who know how to crown col
legiate bobbed locks most al
luringly! There are pliable lit
tle black silk hats that may be
given a quirk here and a quirk
there, and altogether irresist
ible modes of black satin, com
bined with metallic fabric or
trimmed with it. Hats for every
type of girl, from those work

prefer to acquire a few Creek
letters, chained to their own.

both studiously and socially in

the country. (I. Miller is one
of them). Here are the models
that will be rushed for the

and buckled effects are par
ticularly featured in Speier's

Frenchy little place done in
grey and black. You'll go
there perhaps for a shampoo,
and will find yourself having a
marcel, a manicure, and a
facial, just as an excuse to
revel in your surroundings a
little longer. But the next
time will you have a marcel,
a manicure and a facial as an
excuse? You will NOT! YouH
have them because Gold's do
the work so completely to your
satisfaction! Try this Beauty
