Great interest i shown in track events,
every girl who is athletically inclined,
pines for u "N," nt least a medal. The
standards set hy the committee for win
ning a "N," are high. To attain this
honor a girl must have an "E," in physi
cal education, a place on the class team
and first, second and third places in
some track event. This standard places
the premium on physical ability and does
away with over-training.
Last spring the following girls were
given the right to wear the "N": Edith
Brown, Mildred Butler, Marie Clark,
Edna Froyd Amy Garner, Camille
Leyda, Lucille Leyda, Edith Miller, Lot
tie Ravage, Ruth Sheldon, and Ethel
Johnson.
Judging from the interest shown and
the excellent work done in practice this
spring, a much larger number will prob
ably -be praiseiiieiL
Aspiring "Sprinters" and hurdlers
flock to the Gymnasium at every avail
able hour of the day. Under Miss Git
tings' coaching they learn to clear
hurdles and "Shoot off" the mark in ex
cellent form.
Those whoso ability lies in strength
rather than in speed, "Put the shot,"
and throw the basket-ball.
The records made by the girls in prev
ious years compare very favorably with
the track work of other colleges. The
Vassar record of official field meats aro
tiot superior on the average to our own.
The following will show Hie work done
in Vassar, Berkeley, and Nebraska.

Considering the handicaps under which
the athletics are conducted here, the en

much to their credit.

The Dramatic club was organized in
1902. During the first few years of its
existence the leading roles in the plays
presented, were taken by members of the
faculty. One of the first plays to be
given was the "Professor's Love Story,"
with Searle Davis and Basilic Tully in
the leading parts. This play met with
phenomenal success from the start and
practically established the reputation of
the club and set the standard for future
productions.
Space will not permit the mentioning of
many of the other excellent plays which
have been given later. The Dramatic
club has been one organization which has
always been a paying proposition. It has
assisted the athletic department, con
tributed to Y. M. C. A. work, and do
nated over $1,000 to the neighborhood
house.
Four of the students who hove speciol-
ized in this department have gone into
professional work. Harry Neligh, Homer
Hunts, Bashie Tully and Julia Nagl
James.
Julia Nagl James played the second
leading role in the original "Bird of
Paradise" company, in New York City.
At the present time the membership
of the club is limited to about twenty
live. The Kosmet club is a dramatic club,
whose object is to promote the production
of original plays by the students. The
music and the plays are all written by
students or members of the faculty.
The German Dramatic club presents
German plays several times a year, all
the conversation is carried on in German.
The Spharo Styx gave its first enter
tainment this year. Its productions takes
the form of vaudeville stunts which are
supposed to be humorous.
