HOLD HOMECOMING
First Affair of the German Dramatic
Club Is Attended by Many
Alumni
The German Dramatic club held its
first homecoming of former members
Friday night in Union hall. A musical
program, consisting of vocal and violin
selections by the Misses Reusca and
Schulte was followed by PohTs one
act comedy, "Die Schulreiterin." The
play was very well presented and
proved a source of great entertainment
even though there were some people
present who couldn't understand Ger
man. After the program, the members of
the German Dramatic club and their
guests returned to Faculty hall, where
delicious refreshments were served
and a social hour was passed.
There were a large number of alum
ni present, and it is the intention of
the club to mate the homecoming an
annual affair.
Memorial Hall is not large enough to hold the big rally Wednesday in
preparation for the Kansas game so the authorities have scheduled it to come
off on the athletic field at 5 o'clock. Commandant Parker will lend the "army"
for the occasion and the band, sixty strong, will add to the enthusiasm.
The Varsity cheer leaders, Taylor and Harkson, will be there to put the
"pep" into all who come out. The question is do you want another Missouri
Valley Championship bad enough to spend an hour in helping win it? Do you?

well attended as it should have been
because of a misunderstanding. For
som ereason there was no arrange
ments made with the hotel manage
ment although the luncheon was
scheduled for Thursday. Hence there
was a large, crowd of University peo
ple fn the lobby on Thursday who
were disappointed. By Friday noon.
