SKITPRIZE
As Best Act
presentelTby" PLAYERS
Pi Epsilon Delta According to
P' Agree"16"4 Will Present
Prize-winning Skit
Sigma Delta Chi, national honor
ary journalistic fraternity, has been
awarded the prize offered by the
University Night Committee for the
best skit submitted for presentation
at this years show with their skit,
"Durham Time." The committee has
experienced difficulty in deciding
which skit should be awarded the
prize and the final decision was not
known until definite announcement
was made by Royce West, chairman
of the committee, late yesterday.
The prize-winning skit will be pre
sented by Pi Epsilon Delta, national
collegiate players organization, ac
cording to agreement made some
time ago. This organization pre
sented last year's prize-winning skit,
"Bigger and Better," which was also
submitted ,by Sigma Delta Chi. The
prize of $20, which has been won by
Sigma Delta Chi, was offered early
in the season by the University Night
Committee for the best skit sub
mitted. Ticket Sales Begin Monday
Tickets for the show will available
at 10 o'clock, Monday morning, at
the Orpheum Theater box office, one
week before the entertainment is
given. Seats will sell for seventy
five cents in the last ten rows of the
balcony, and $1.00 for the remainder.
As only one performance of the pro
gram can be given, it is thought that
most of the tickets will be sold the
first day they are made available.
Rehearsals are well under way mid
it is expected that all skits will be
ready for dress-rehearsal before the
'committee early next week. Com
mittee members who have charge of
skits are responsible to the commit
tee fuf their part of the program,
and should keep the committee in
formed as to castes, programs, and
progreNS.
The program this year is to be dif
ferent than any here-to-fore pre
sented. There are more skits sched
uled for this year's show than have
formerly been given at the Univer
sity Night Program, and they are of
a some-what different character than
any previously presented.
Programs will be printed and dis
tributed as soon as definite material
can be collected, probably early next
week.
RDGH TALKS AT
AG FORUM MEETING
Student Secretary from China Out
line! Chinese Situation
At Noon Gathering
Arthur Rugh, a student secretary
from China, defined the Chinese sit
uation as a tidal wave of nationalism
in his talk before the Ag College
World Forum yesterday at noon.
He outlined the situation in China
and explained that the nationalist
movement was only a move to insure
Chinese sovereignty within China; to
form a republican form of govern
ment; and provide an equal oppor
tunity for all her people. He also
stated that the nationalist party wart
made up of two wings, a radical wing
and a conservative one, with the mass
of the Chinese people between them.
When asked about the Chinese at
titude toward America, he stated that
the present Chinese policy was to be
friendly toward nations that treated
her as an equal and to be an enemy
of all who considered her as an in
ferior. Because of the fact that Rus
sia made new treaties wh:n they re
alized that a new China was cominp
into existence, the Russian govern
ment has more influence over the
policies of the Chinese than any other
country.
Movement for Peoples Rights
He said that China has been brow
beaten into treaties Just a little long
er than she would stand and that the
nationalistic movement was just an
assertion of the people for their
rights.
He also felt that unless foreign na
tions did not take a different atti
tude, China with several of the other
Asiatic countries, and Russia would
form an alliance which would be hard
to deal with. ,
In answer to the question of the
kind of government which China
would adopt, said that it would un
doubtedly be a committee form of
8vernment until leaders should be
warned for a more republican form.
On this point he also emphasized the
Jlnt that unless the foreign policy
changed toward China, there is a
fn of China becoming a bolahe
ic nation.

ALUMNUS WILL GIYE TALK
The Rev. Alfred Cilman Will Speak
At Convocation Monday
The Rev. Alfred A. Gilman, '98,
will speak at the University convo
cation in the Temple theater at li
o'clock, March 21 on the topic of
China. Mr. Gilman spent practically
a ouarter of a century in the Chinese
missionary service and so is very able
to give authoritative information on
this much talked of subject.
A year after his graduation from
the Philadelphia Divinity School in
1901, he went to China. He spent the
first few years in gaining knowledge
of the very difficult Chinese lang
uage, and then he was able to go into
active work. In 1917 he was chosen
president of the Central Chinese Uni
versity in Changsa Hunan province
showing that he was very capable in
his chosen work. Rev. Gilman hap
held this position and is now nearing
the close of his year's leave of ab
sence. Mr. Gilman received his A. B. de
gree from Nebraska, graduating with
Phi Rata KflDtia honors. The fact that
he was born in North Platte and
spent his boyhood in th fashion tnat
mnat Nebraska boyhoods are spent
makes his career in China seem more
of a Nebraska contribution to tne
Orient.

Wednesday evening March 16, at
Blue Springs, under the direction of
