Corey Investigates
Church Beliefs of
College Students
Do students become less reli
gious as they go through college?
According to the results of an in
vestigation recently made by Dr.
Stephen M. Corey of Teachers col
lege, the answer would seem to be
"no." In this investigation, a group
of freshmen and a group of seniors
were asked to agree or disagree
with certain statements in a stand
ardized questionnaire concerning
the student's attitude toward God
and church matters. The reactions
of the two groups, when compared,
showed that beliefs of the seniors
were quite similar in most respects
to those of the freshmen.
Seniors Tolerant.
Among the few differences
which appeared, it was noticed
that seniors have a little clearer
idea of God than have freshmen,
and have greater tolerance toward
the theistic beliefs of others. Sen
iors opposed even more strongly
than freshmen a suggestion that
"the church is losing ground as
education advances," and seniors
were somewhat more confident
that "the church is trying to ad
just itself to a scientific world and
therefore deserves support."
On the other hand, freshmen
were a little more certain than
seniors that a superior Deity may
always be expected "to support the
right and condemn the wrong" and
were a little more tolerant of dem
onstrations and matters of church
theology.
"From the results," said Dr.
Corey, "I feel that no one can con
tend that for the students con
cerned, attendance at the univer
sity has contributed to any loss of
faith."

Krakatoa, Largest of All Volcanoes,
Most Powerful Creation of Nature,
Lies a Thousand Feet Below the Sea
An August afternoon in 1863, over seventy years ago, the
(rrcnt est explosion in the history of the world occurred, out in
ha middle of the Pacific ocean, near the island of Sumatra.
Krakatoa, king of all volcanoes, after slumbering peacefully for
decade after decade had barked its challenge to the universe.
And when everything was onceo
more quiet again two-thirds of a
sizeable island had disappeared
and tbe crater of the angry giant
had sunk to a thousand feet below
the surface of the sea.
Historical records tell of the
magnitude of old Krakatoa. Its
pressure was felt almost half way
around the globe, for a terrific
wave, set up by the explosion was
felt 11,000 miles away in the Eng
lish channel. And reports of the
deafening explosion were heard
by inhabitants of lands 2.900 miles
distant Tbe entire surface of the
world was covered with dust from
the mighty crater, which hovered
ovrr the horizon for months, pro
ducing wierd effects upon setting I

Yitll Harold "Pete" Sump

in the loading roles, the Univer

Sumption is cast as George Si

York City who has risen from the
city's Ghetto to a position ot prom
inence in New York social circles,
as well as political circles.
Regina Gordon, Mr. Simon's sec
retary who, although he doesn't
realize it, is in love with him, is
the role assigned to Miss Mc
Laughlin. She will be remembered
by University Players' audiences
as Maude Mockridge, the author
ess, in "Dangerous Corner" and
the daughter in "Dinner at Eight."
But one of the most difficult
roles in the whole production is
the one assigned to Lois Patterson
in the part of Bessie Green, the
telephone operator. Her "Simon
& Tedesco," said In a lilting drawl
ing voice, brings many laughs to
a production otherwise packed
with heavy drama.
Irving Hill, however, draws the
best "bits" in the part of the
youthful communist, Harry Becker,
who has one of the best scenes in
the whole show when he tells G. S.
just what he thinks of him and all
of his kind.

This time there was a camera

Wisconsin Seniors
Create Loan Fund
To Aid Classmates
The senior class of the Univer

$500 to the school authorities to
help their needy classmates com
plete their education, it was an
nounced In the Wisconsin Press
Bulletin.
The class of '34 in offering the
loan expressed the wish that fu
ture graduating classes would fol
low the precedent which they are
starting. Loans to the seniors will
not exceed $50 and contrary to the
usual practice high scholarship
will not be required. The fund
known as the class of 1934 senior
emergency loan fund will be placed
in the care of a special committee
upon whose recommendation the
students will be helped. The stu
dent's financial standing is to be
considered of prime importance in
the awarding of the loans and pre

to influence the committee's deci

Tune Detective to
Be Here Friday at
Music Convocation
A special musical convocation,
featuring Geoffrey O'Hara, will be
presented to the general public by
the school of music Friday, Feb.
23. at 3 p. m. in the Temple build
ing. The school of music usually
presents their programs on Wed
nesday, but by a special arrange
ment they were able to secure
O'Hara and the date was changed.
Geoffrey O'Hara, born in Can
ada, with an obviously Irish name,
speaks with a French-Canadian
lilt, sings charmingly and talks
rtiost Interestingly, according to
those who have heard him. Dur
ing the World war he was one of
the scng leaders who did so much
to cheer the boys going to Vie
front. As a composer, his long
list of sougs runs the gamut
from the most dignified of sacred
solos, such as "There is No Death,"
to the very frivolous "K-K-K-Katy,"
which was sung by millions
during the war.
Writes Light Operas.
O'Hara's serious songs have
been sung with great success by
many of the world's greatest sing
ers, including Caruso and Werren
rath. He is well known as the
composer of more school operettas
and light operas than any other
one man. As a lecturer, singer
and entertainer he has a tremen
dous following.
Geoffrey O'Hara is the father of
the "tune detective" idea and does
the finest bit of work imaginable
in this connection, said those in
charge of the convocation. Popu
lar airs, the kind that are whistled
up and down the main streets of
the country, are mostly honest
"steals" from the classics. O'Hara
uncovers this interesting fact as
part of his program.
Given three notes by his audi
ence this remarkable builder f
tunes composes a song before your
very eyes. "Song building," he
says, "is not so difficult" and
then adds "if vou know how."
AT THIRD MEETING
OF CLASSICS CLUB
Musical Numbers Also Listed
On Program Tonight in
Raymond Hall. '

tion" by Dr. C. H. Oldfather, dean
of the College of Arts and Sciences.
Doctor Oldfather will discuss vari
ous discoveries made in the last
few decades, which have thrown
light on ancient civilization and
cultures.
In addition. Elspeth Leisy will
play a flute solo, accompanied by
Jeanne Palmer. Also, William
Glenn will sing, accompanied by
Ida Schrepel. Part of the evening
will be devoted to solving Latin
cross-word puzzles.
In the near future, the Classical
club will be entertained at a pro
gram sponsored by the graduate
students of the classical depart
ment. At another meeting, those
who are practiceteaching Latin in
the Teachers College high school
will present a program of Latin
plays.

LUNNEY, PARSONS STAR
Second Half Proves Thriller
As Nebraska Outplays
Kansas Cagers.
A last -second desperate shut
by Harry Soronscn, lanky Ne
braska center, rimmed tin'
hoop, hesitated a second, and
then finally fell outside, just as
the gun barked announcing tho
end of the game and a 25-24 vic
tory for the conference leading
Kansas Jayliawkers in a thrilling
game on the Lawrence mapfea
Monday night. The Huskers had
come from behind after a 13-5 dis
advantage at half time to wage a
desperate and brilliant rally which
all but duplicated their upset o
the highly toted Jays in the first
encounter between the two teams
here early in the season.
Lunney and Parsons were large
ly responsible for the Scarlet scor
ing spree in the last half, each
ringing up a total of four field
goals during the game while Par
sons added two free throws. The
Huskers started out with a 3-0
lead when Sorenson made his free
throw and Parsons sank his first
goal. However, Ebling finally hit
his stride and his offensive work
put the Jays out in front at the
half 13-5. They soon stretched the
lead into a 20-6 advantage.
Huskers Find Range.,
Lunney and Parsons found
their range at this stage of the
game and brought the score to 24
14. then 24-18. Kappleman made
good a free throw, Parsons slipped
by the Kansas defense for two
field goals and Lunney for one.
and the score was 25-24 with 15
seconds left.
Widman went in for Whitaker
at this juncture. Sorenson got tbe
tip to Parsons who shot short but
the lanky Scarlet center took the
ball -and nearly made good the
goal that would have given Ne
braska the game.
In addition to Parsons and Lun
ney, Mason contributed a field
goal and free throw, while Wid
man with a field goal, and Soren
son with a free throw completed
the Husker scoring.
The loss pretty well established
Nebraska's position in the final
