mid Murillo, who died two hundred
and fifty years ago.

worth of the artist and his place
Mini influence in the history of art;
and that the entrant's name not
appear on the manuscript.

Jacob van Ruisdael was one of
the earliest of the Dutch painters
to paint landscape for its own
ake, rather than merely as a
Sai kground for a figure composi
tion. Bartolome Murillo, a Spanish
artist, is quite different from Ruis
ilael, being a painter of religious
pictures and genre scenes, for
which the little beggars of the
t-tieets often served as models.
Reproductions of their works are
posted on the Duueun noarci iu sec
ond floor corridor, Morrill hall
Hooks and magazines for refer
ence are on file in the Fine Arts
librarv.
Copies of "Nebraska Art and
Aitists" the illustrated booklet

ssavs.

VARIETY OF TYPES TO BE
REPRESENTED IN CAST
OF KLUB SHOW, 'BAR-0
RANCH.'
(.Continued from rage 1.)
I can't understand why more pock
ets are not put in ladies clothes."
(Note: Marlene Dietrich had not
started the fad of wearing man
nish attire at that time.)
"With the aid of a razor and a
feeling of great sacrifice the mem
bers of the chorus transfers their
tarzan like legs into feminine look
ing limbs," said Doc. Ralph Ire
land, trainer of the choruses in the
forthcoming production. Ireland
laughed outright as he mentally
sighted some of the amusing inci
dents that have happened in other
shows.
He was entertained by the re
membrance of big bearded athletes
assuming the mannerism of dainty
follie girls. Ireland said that the
men in the choruses picked up the
steps in the routines with as much
or more ease than the majority of
women could. "Men choruses are
easier to instruct than female cho
rine because they are so much
more willing to carry out direc
tions," he concluded.
If their is any truth in the Sam
sonian theory, there should be a
lot of strong men running around
the campus in a few weeks for
after the next haircut a visit to the
barber will be prohibited, which
shouldn't be hard to take in times
like these. Long hair tends to give
the members of the cast who are
to portray women characters a
more feminine look, it was proved
in last year's show, "Jingle Bells."
Thompson states that rehearsals
of the principles will begin in the
near future. Choruses start rehear
sals with music Monday night.
"The tentative cast has been
chosen and will be definitely an
nounced in a short time," said the
president of the Klub.

Arrangements for an extensive

ten season of 1933 by the univer
sity Y. W. C. A. are being made
according to Miss Bernice Miller,
secretary of the the Y. M,
All departments of the organiza

stated that the program issued by

Churches will be used. Students
are urged to get these booklets,
"The Fellowship of Prayer," from
the organization offices at Ellen
Smith hall.
"The only thing that we can be
sure of in the present social situa
tion is the very accelerating
change. If we are to keep our
proper balance in the midst of it,
some time of quiet recollection and
thinking is absolutely essential,"
was the comment of Miss Millei
upon the 1933 Lenten season.
For those who find it difficult to
think constructively upon religion,
a special study group will be spon
sored by Miss Miller. Using as her
subject the. life of Jesus, Miss Mil

have attempted to exactly repro
duce the scenes and costumes of
the period, which are so stronly
emphasized by the younger Dum
as, author of the play.
It is reputed that Younger
Dumas experienced in real life,
the story about which he wrote.
While living in Paris, as the
story goes, Dumas fell in iove with
a charming young French cour
tesan, who at the time, was the
mistress of all Paris. His father
forbade the affair, and sent young
Dumas to Spain. When he returns
he finds his lost love ina grave
outside of the city.
Received favorably by critics the
world over ,the current Players
production is being run at several
of the leading New York theaters
at the present time. It was this
same play that started Sara Bern
hart, regarded as one of the
greatest actresses in history, on
the road to success. Her portrayal
of the part of Camille, incidentally
gave the play an undying popular
ity.
The scenes and costuming for
the play have been designed by
Dwight Kirsch and Dick Page.

"The 1933 Cornhusker offers the
greatest value in Cornhusker his
tory" said Skade. "It is the only
means a .student has of preserving
memories of his college days. With
the end of th2 drive but a few days

PROFESSOR MAKES
XYLOPHONE FROM
DINOSAUR RONES
Wiedemann Demonstraies
New Creation Refore
Convi'iilion.
With dinosaur bones which he
dug from Nebraska ground, Pro
fessor Charles W. Wiedemann,
member of the teachers college
faculty, made a one-man xylo
phone .
Demonstrating his new creation
before a meeting of the elemen
tary school of principals in con
nection with the National Educa
tion association convention being
held in Minneapolis, Professor
Wiedemann played a few of his
favorite selection upon this unique
musical instrument which he made
from rocks, dinosaur bones, and
bamboo.
In further demonstrating that
music can be had without funds.
Professor Wiedemann displayed
another xylophone made up of
slabs of crystalized lime stone,
picked up in a rock pile, which
were placed over sections of ham
boo. Among some of the other
freak creations of Professor
Wiedemann was a set of pan pipes,
which was made out of his boy
hood fish pole, while two test
tubes, filled with mercury furn
ished a "mercurophone."
His master creation was prob
ably a small wooden box, about
two inches square at one end. Held
correctly, the box produced music
when struck by the hand.
Professor Wiedemann concluded
his demonstration by playing a
number of popular selections upon
a fife constructed from various
sizes of rifle shells fastened to a
block of wood.
In explaining his collection he
said that, while they were some
what primitive, they were none the
less effctive. The dinosaur xylo
phone is prized most highly by
Nebraska's famed professor of his
tory and education.
"It plays beautifully," he said in
explaining the xylophone, "and the
old bones ilterally dance with
music."
