THE CALCIUM'S GLARE
The annual epidemic student dra
matic productions Is now fairly under
way. It iH true that the performances
run severe tlnancial risk In compet
ing with the hop and formal season,
but unlike athletics these forms of
activity Can not be limited to set
times of the year ho as not to inter
fere wi'th one another. The Dramatic
club, in the "Servants In the House,"
set a standard which has not been
reached before. The German dra
matic club follows with Uh contribu
tion toward the higher type of ama
teur acting. The .eaily junior class
piny is under way, and bids fair to
exceed the play of last year -not con
sidering any .of the hardships under
which a class play Is produced. Plans
for the senior play are not yet formul
ated, but the senior play has always
been a profit and a pride to the class.
The Kosmet elub has announced the
production of its third musical comedy.
The Styx vaudeville production is
scheduled for tonight.
In all of these productions, students
take their parts without further con
sideration than the pleasure they re
ceive and the recognition of having
had a part. No credit is given, and
no remuneration is received (Mass
work suffers as a consequence of the
long hours which must be spent in
preparation. The part of a "lead" is
an acknowledged social feather In
one's cap. The other parts are usuual
ly gifts toward the success of the pro
duction. Yet they are given freely,
and it Is considered time well spent
after the play has been given and
one gets down to the grind again.
All of which suffices to show that the
glare of calcium lias its alurements
for the student, as well as for the pro
fessionals. The Unverisity audience
in critical but friendly, and it is never
necessary to close the performance
with a "Nunc plaudlte."
Preparations Made for Y. W. Circus.
The Y. W. ( A. is preparing for an
entertainment to be given in the
armory, January 2:?, which gives prom
ise of being exceptionally good. The
entertainment called the "Circus" will
have all the attractions of the usual
three-ring circds, side shows and
freaks included.
"RAG STAFF IN ACTION" IS
TITLE OF NEW PHOTO PLAY
Nebraskan Scribes Meet for Annual
Picture and Incidentally Pose
for Dr. Condra'8 Movies.
Deserting their lunches or dnshlng
from the table, each member of the
Rag staff took himself, or herselT
to the sacred confines of the office of
the s:id publication, yesterday after
noon In feverish haste The cause
of all this hurry was the fact that Fri
day was Cornhusker picture day at
the Nebraskan office. The hour or
twehe-thirty was the chosen one in
which to torture the photographer and
the gaiiK' assembled at that hour to
have their pictures preserved for pos
terity.
Something had to be a little off. so
(lie photographer kindly consented to
be the object of wrath when he deln
( (I fie performance by appearing
some minutes late. When he arrived
lie found his subjects in front of Uni
hall performing for Dr. Condra and
his movie machine. The obliging 'oc
tor had chanced that way while the
angry staff was bewailing the tardi
nes of their picture man.
Having been assured that the state
could not poslbly do without the Ne
braskan, and that he was more than
Justified in waistlng several feet of
film on the bunch, he quickly con
sented to shoot them in action. So
ey were found by the still-life pho
tographer. After tills rare bit of excitement
they proceeded into the office, there
to select the proper spot and pose
for the picture of glory. This busi
ness of arangement nearly proved the
undoing of the patient producer of
flashlights. Finally the great event
was oer and amid dense clouds of
flashlight smoke the staff dispersed to
finish the interrupted meal.
GYM CLASSES CAUSING WORRY
Co-Eds Suddenly Industrious as End
of Semester Approaches Tango
Forsaken for Gym.
Don't be startled when you see some
girl rush madly toward tho armory,
as though she was going to a fire or
an eight o'clock dish-pan sale. It is
really nothing of great Importance,
but only one of the seasonable signs
which show that the end of the semes
ter is near. Despite the balmy weath
er and tlie call of friends to loiter,
many co-eds arc appearing at gym
classes, innumerable times this week
in a desperate struggle to make up
the list of cuts that have accumulated
throughout the semester.
Position, right about face, and for
ward, march, are the pass words of
the hour while the intricate steps of
the folk dances have for tho time re
placed the over-taxed tango.
lluiurmity Nottrcfl
The German Dramatic club will give a
banquet tonight at tho Lindell hotel
in honor of the caste of "Flachsmans
als lOrzeiher."
All orders for senior caps must be in
this week. Orders at the University
book store.
