His interpretation o; ,he character of the self-made il kio dictator, and hia consequent ,;oufall was very well done. He depicted a radical change In the at titude of the bluffer till he falls vic tim to circumstances and finally he toos to his downfall. The intensity of the character portrayed by Mr. I.einer increased as the play pro cessed, and at the climax of the ork. his presentation of the spirit of the hopeless negro was most prat.-eworthy. The pan of "Smithers" was most icalislically portrayed by El wood Kamay. Although his work was not the theme of the play, he brought a'jout the atmosphere of the. play, that prevailed throughout the per formance. , Light Add to Success No small part of the success of the production was due to the set tings which were conceived by Dight Kirsch. The jungles which as the location of the action of the play tas carefully reproduced, and carried out the theme of the play materially. The scene of 'Emperor Jones" Is laid in the African interior, where the American negro ex-convict had set up a miniature empire among tlie savage bushmea. Jonea. how ever, sensed that his power could not last forever, and he was forc ibly reminded of his situation by Smithers, a dissolute English trad er, who was under the influence and power or Jones. Finally Jones Ik forced to leave bis domain to flee for his life.

Nine or ten members of the faculty of Teacher'a College at tended the National Educator's As sociation last week but their classes continued even during their absence. In some cases examinations were given by the Instructor's assistant, taking the place of the usual lee lure. Senior of the college took rhargo of other classes, however, substituting efficiently In most places. This student teaching Is known as the Lancaaterian system, according to Dr. Werner, professor of prlnetplcs of education. In the early nineteenth century Joseph Lancaster of England began the monitorial system which Is now known by his name. The answer is then, that the stu dent teachers teach each other when their professors are at con ventions. Y.W.C.A.

LINCOLN, Criminal Lawyer Advice to Students Nationally Known Figure Tells Students Lacking Money to Avoid Legal Profession "If you are a poor student don't study law and the other professions because the rich students are the only ones that have a chance In these fields,' advised Clarence Dar row, criminal lawyer of national prominence, as he sat In his room at the Cornhusker hotel Monday morning after his arrival fium Chi cago, to meet Lloyd lort, Lincoln attorney, in a debute on capital pun ishment which waa held last eve ning at the Liberty theatre. Mr. Darrow declared that only the young professional man with sufficient money aid can hope to compete with the established law yers and doctors. "These lawyers and doctors are responsible for the higher graduation requirements of our schools, it takes you three years to get out of law school, and there Is a lot of time and money wasted there. They want to detain the students from entering Into their field of competition. I don't blame them. There are lota of law- cia aiaiklug lu death." The man who saved Loeb and Leopold from the gallows sat com fort oly In his chair, cross-legged, looking out of the window. But when he became interested he looked the reporter In the eye. And he seemed to be Interested most of the time. "You don't think much of college degrees, Mr. Darrow?" He chuckled. "I don't have an L. L. B. About the only degree I have Is the Elk's and I don't go to their meetings very often. Dut still I think I am a pretty intelli gent man. But I am always study ing." Mr. Darrow again referred to the amount of time that is wasted In college. He declared that a lot of education could be derived from C'ontlnard en rase 3. ONE POINT LEAD GIVES ALPHA SIGS CAGE WIN Phi Gams Defeated in Close Play: Theta Xi Takes Class B Game Alnha Sterna 'Phi defeated Phi Gamma Delta. 24 23, in one of Uie most Interesting 'games played in this year's interfraternity basket ball tournament. In a class B final round game, Theta XI took a deci sion from Alpha Gamma Rho, 17-12. The Alpha Sigs started fast, and completely outclassed the Phi Gams, leading l$-6 at the half. But at the beginning of the third quar ter the Phi Gams staged a brilliant rally, and pulled aheed of the Alpha Sigs to lead 18 16 shortly before the end of the third quarter. The Alpha Sies tightened their defense and picked up lour points on a free throw by Urban, a field basket by Patulio. and another free throw by Halbeison. Third Quarter Close The third quarter looked like it was all Alpha Sigma Phi. with Patulio sinking another long shot, and Ireland making good on a free throw, but the Phi Gams spurted again and collected three points to make the count 23 21 with the Alpha Sigs leading. Patulio made good on a free throw for the Alpha Sigs, and Long scored a basket for the Phi Gams, finishing the scoring for the evening. It was anyone's game until the final bell sounded. Patulla had a big evening, ring ing up five field baskets and two free throws. Long scored an equal number of points for the Phi Gams. The Alpha Slg victory offers a chance for further complications in the Dlav-off of the three-cornered tie between the Alpha Sigs, Phi arcs and Kappa SUs. If the rnt Gams, scheduled to play the Kappa Sigs Wednesday night, win the game, each of the three teams will have one victory and on defeat marked up in the play-off.

TUESDAY, MARCH 5, 192 DARROW MEETS LLOYD DORT IN GRIME DEBATE Famous Criminal Attorney Speaks in Opposition to Capital Punishment DORT DEFENDS PENALTY Local Lawyer Upholds Plan Of Death Sentence as Now Used "The basts for all crime is ven- Seance," said Clarence Darrow, fa mous criminal lawyer, last night when he debated Lloyd Dort, for mer assistant state prosecuting at torney, at the Liberty theatre, upon the subject, "Should Capital Pun ishment Be Abolished?" Darrow de bated affirmatively while Dort spoke from a negative viewpoint Each speaker was allotted one hour in which to present his views upon the subject of capital punish ment. Mr. Darrow was the first to speak and gave the basis for his contention that capital punishment should be abolished. ' Describes Early Tribes Mr. Darrow told firat of the hab its of former times when In the tribes "an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth" was the law. He said that when a member of one tribe was killed by a member of an other tribe the offended tribe took vengeance by killing a member of the tribe of the murderer regard less of the connection between the victim and the murder. In England, he went on to ex plain, there were, in early times up to within one hundred and fifty years, over two hundred crimes which were punishable by death. The accused or convicted was hanged from a tree upon a high hill where every one could see the execution. With the passing of time they have reduced the crimes which are punishable by death to one. Condemns Hangings "England has come to the conclu sion that public spectacles, which public hangings afford, are detri mental rather than good. Why do we. not-hang Mopl-4ntiife open?'' was a question asked by Mr. Dar row. He went on to explain that It is not congenial with public sensi bilities that we hang criminals where the children of school age may see them. Mr. Darrow then went on to say that people do not refrain from committing murder because of fear. The criminal does not hesitate from killing because he dreads the hang man's noose or the electric chair. Shows Place of Fear "hear Is the greatest enemy of a happy life," according to Mr. Dar row. If we were to be good only bo cause we feared to be bad there would be very few good people in the opinion of Darrow. "We should live by love rather than by hatred and fear," remarked Mr. Darrow in ( onliaaed ea Pace 3 SEilElSTTEE Recommend One Heatmg Unit to Serve Capitol And University A joint power, light, and beating plant for the university and the state capltol has been recom mended to the senate committee named to Investigate activities of power Interests In Nebraska. Mon day afternoon the senate power committee opened a hearing with the first witness, Mr. Seaton who is attng superintendent at the i i i ersity of Nebraska. .5r. Seaton told of assisting In a survey after which he voiced him self highly In favor of the capltol and University uniting in obtaining their light, heat, and power and that the proposed plant be situated on tbe campus. He said that the proposed plant would effect n sav ing to both institutions. Mr. Sea ton said he knew very Httle about the opposition of power companies to the bill bur he said that such leg islation would be highly desirable for the people. in Burnett Essay Old Tree Falls To Make Room For Heat Pipes Nobly It died as nobly It stood. The old cottonwood which stood between Andrews hall and Teach er College near the aldewalk con necting the east entrances of the buildings, recently fell before me axe and the saw to make room for another tunnel. It'a pieces were gathered up and hauled away to eventually make heat, smoke, and ashes for someone. Shade for student soldiers, sweating beneath woolen uniforms when "Old Sol" smiled on the drill field, was the brimming full cup the old cottonwood held out to them. Rest periods found a full quota of would be (or wouldn't be) soldiers lolling beneath Its branches thankful they were there. Headquartera company on pa rade lined up within Its shade.

There Is written, perhaps, in some Neo lithic or phonetic language we can not understand, a record of all events that have passed arouna about its stalwart form. Preserved In this record may be the frenried acclamations of vic tory and the quietness of defeat; the pictures of wotuea with tneir skirts trailing In the dust and of men wearing little black hats and tight trousers. Button shoes and swallow tall coats no doubt are pic tured there. People now famous rested In the shade it the old cot tonwood ad gave not a single thought tot.
