Tho Dramatic club presented "David
Garrick" at tho Oliver last night be
fore a good house, composed mostly of
university people.
Several boxes were filled with par
tics of professors and wives and young
inriinn nhanr.fillor Andrews also oc
cupied a box. The fraternity crowds
turned out en masse and the lower
floor was quite gay with its many
young ladles.
Tho play in itself was given in fault
less style and speaks highly of tho
work and Interest put into it by the
players. Tho play 1b comedy in nature,
with strains of heavier work through
out Miss Howells, Walter C. Booth,
Rex MorehQUse and R. B. Morgan
easily carried off honors, theirs being
the moat difficult parts. Tho play was
divided into four acts. The cadet band
occupied tho orchestra's seats and tried
to furnish good music, but were unfor
tunate in not having the leading instru
ments present.
Those taking part In the play were
W. C. Booth, R. B. Mprgan, Rex More
house. T. J. Hewitt. F. E. Ptak, G. F.
Dobler, H. C. Fllley, J. R. Bender,
Misses Bessie Brown, Ruth Bailey and
Alice Howell.
Senior Girl Players.
The team which will represent the
senior class In the basket-ball tourna
ment tonight is not an organization
of veterans. Only two of the players,
Miss Sly and Miss Minnie Guile, have
been long associated with girls' ath
letics at the university. Miss Cook
and Miss Ballard played their first
match last year in the interclass tour
nament, while Miss Schaper and Miss
Bowen are new material. As a com
paratively untried team, therefore, the
seniors are saying little about their
hopes for success in the game against
the juniors. The contest will not be
too easy to be interesting, however,
for Miss Sly's guarding is a formidable
thing for a forward to race, ana me
center work of Miss Guile and Miss
Ballard has been brilliant in tho prac
tice matches. The positions will be
as follows: Contors, Miss Minnie
Guile (captain), Miss Clara Ballard;
forwards, Miss Caroline Cook, MIsb
Meta Schaper; guards, Miss Blva Sly,
Miss Abba Bowon; substitutes, Miss
Margaret Honeywell, Miss Clara Craig.
Academy Notes
Tho chapel exercises next Tuesday
morning, will bo led by Miss Weldy,
secretary of the Y. W. C. A. She will
mako recommendations respecting the
religious life of students.
Tho Btudents of the academy appa
rently appreciate tho freedom which Is
extended to them. There are no pub
l'shed rules. No case requiring disci
pline has come before the principal,
and but .one instance of misappropria
tion of property has occurred. This Is
a source of great delight to the management.

The Pedagogical club met last night
at 7 o'clock. The meeting was called
at an early hour In order to complete

The Letter " N."
Considerable criticism has arisen be
cause the seniors voted to wear an "N"
upon their hats. It Ib urged that only
those winning places on athletic teams
should wear their university letter.
This Is customary In all the large east
ern schools. Tho matter will be
brought bofore the athletic board next
Monday night.
Election of Managers.
Nominations for manager and assist
ant manager of the football team must
be in the hands of the athletic board
on or before Saturday, December 13:
Eligibility Article IV., section 1, of
tho constitution of athletlQ board: No
person shall be eligible to tho position
of manager who is not at the time his
duties are begun a senior in good
standing, pursuing a regular course.
No person shall be eligible to assistant
manager who is not at the time his
duties are begun a Junior In good
standing, pursuing a regular course.
Send In your nominations.
teacher do not count for so much after
all, because the ordinary school board
does not Inquire Into the matter of
personal recommendations. Teachers
wcro advlBed to take some Interest In
tho finances of the school and to place
a high value on their own services.
By doing so, Mr. Fowler thinks, the
teacher gains the confidence of the
board.
The school teacher does not meet
many Elsie Dlnsmores nor many very
bad boys and girls. Most pupils are
common, ordinary children and their
acquaintance must bo cultivated out
side of school hours If they are to be
understood. In closing, the speaker
left the thought that the student will
quickly forget much of the subject
matter taught him, but he will never
forget the personality of the teacher.

Academy Debaters.
Tho Michigan-Wisconsin debate will,
be held at Madison on March 20, 1003.
Tho question for debate Is, "Resolved,
That the adoption of a general Income
tax, levied by tho United States gov
ernment, would be for the best Inter
ests of the nation."
It is mutually conceded that the gov
ernment stands In need of revenue,
that such a tax would be constitutional,
that the system could become a law,
that It shall remain In operation at
least fifteen years, and that it shall be
conducted under an efficient civil service.
