MOREJRACK MATERIAL
NECESSARY FOR STRONG TEAM
Coach Reed Very Much Dissatisfied
with Present Showing Bifc Op
portunity for More Men.
And now the piactice in earnest
K.M atteinoon tioin : 'M) until a, Old
Sol looks down on the tiack a. id sees
fioni thiitv to toitv men out in suits
The inateiial is excellent so far as it
goes, but them is not enough of it
Some of the men that are out are new,
but show up better each night. The
time made is considered veiy good
for the time of the year.
Coach Reed has done iemarkably
-well with the few men who have come
out With but a few veterans he has
gotten out a bunch that will probably
win the valley championship A groat
need is felt at present for hurdlors
and jumpers There are only a few
long distance men out and some more
could be used The two pole vaulteis
that aie out eveiy night are in phe
nomenal shape They are doing about
twelve feet, which is indeed a mar
vel. The weight men arc not much
in evidence as yet, thougn seveial
come out three times a week.

' School of Music Faculty Effervesce
i m Original MuBical Skit "Fought
' and Failed For."
( Tuesdav evening the facultv ot the
i Univei sitv School ol Music effer-
vesced in their thlid annual "Fac
ulty Frolic." The enterinininent
consisted of a musical skit entitled
"The Fastening of the Third Door
Mack" or "Fought and Failed For."
It vvaii billed as the joint product
of Howaid Kirkpatrick, John J.
Prince, Jr , and many others.
The piece was given in two ex
plosions. In the first the faculty was
to be shipwrecked on an island called
Milwaukee in Salt Creek, Neb In
the second explosion they switched
the scene to Hawaii and made the
play take on the aspects of "The
Bird of Paradise."
The frolic had gratifying features
in addition to the fun it provoked.
The songs and text showed a strong
growth of school spirit and an ap
preciation of the work of the di-tector
