echoing all the glorious traditions of
the famous old school for officers,
this story starring William Haines, is
unique in its genuine atmosphere.
Haines as a "wise" smart aleck,
comes to the academy to play foot
ball and remains to realize that
principles come before pride. Joan
Crawford makes a charming heroine.
Haines' adventures while learning
to be a cadet will give you plenty of
laughs, the football scenes will give
you plenty of thrills and to top it
off. a etnder love story. The whole
picture breathes the spirit of youth
and romance. If you can sit through
the picture without feeling any
thrills, then there most certainly be
something wrong with your emo
tional makeup.
Ruth Glanville plays the saxo
phone, and how? Plenty good.
The orchestra featuring "Some Of
These Days" get a big hand. Bobby
Jackson talks and dances for your
approval. (You'll like him.) The
Jeanne Fuller Dancers lead the bill
with their "Dance Variations". The
most original and artistic exhibition
that you have had a chance to see in
a long time.
Liberty
This is the men's week at the Lib
erty. Not the best play the Sutphen
Players have offered, nor the
worst. Just a good comedy that will
please you immensely. "If I was
Rich" deals with an illiterate ship
ping clerk who, though content with
his meagre lot in life, aspires to
riches and affluence to satisfy the
selfish desires of his wife. The
way he mixes up his tenses every
he opens his mouth well, Ralphe
Herolde as usual goes over big.
Orpheum
Handsome Roland Colman and
beautiful Vilma Banky, both at
their best, co-starred in their latest
picture "The Magis Flame." It is
good? Don't ask foolish questions.
A clown and a prince falls in love
with the same girl. They fight and
the clown accidentally kills the
prince. To protect himself the
clown poses as the prince and by a
trick of fate is placed on the throne
of a small kingdom to which the
real prince is heir. The girl dedi
cates her life to the task of aveng
ing her lover the clown, whom she
believes has been killed by the
prince. The unhappy king is about
to sentence the girl for conspiracy,
when he recognizes her, his sweet
heart. A touching scene, this, a
treat for girls who like to cry.
The story has two backgrounds
and Mr. Colman plays two roles. A
clown in a circus and a prince in
court with laughter and love in
their appropriate places, all of which
gives the star plenty of opportunity
to show his ability and he takes ad
vantage of it to turn out a beauti
ful and finished piece of work.
Rialto
Mr. Wallace Beery and Mr. Ray
mond Hatton in a comedy that starts
where one of their first pictures left
off, the tail end of the world war.
Lieutenant Ramsbotton (Hatton)
leaves private Hosennozzle (Beery)
in France to guard his sweetheart.
As a "Wife Saver" our Looie has a
terrible time. After having his
nose pulled by rival suitors and a
most unnerving experience as a
mountain climber, he is forced to
fight a duel with Ramsbootom be
cause he married the girl.
A usual Hatton-Beery picture,
but funnier than their last few pic
tures. The subtitles and captions
help the comedy. If you feel care
free, get up a party and see this one.
You'll laugh your moneys worth and
what more could you ask for.
Who is your favorite movie star,
and why? If you'll watch this
column during the next few days,
you'll see the pick of some of your
friends and maybe your own. So
if you're asked when you're met on
the campus who your favorite movie
star is, have the name ready.
Thanks in advance, "Al""

Mystery Play
In First Showing
(Continued from Page 1)
the play takes place.
"The Black Flamingo" has not yet
been presented on Broadway, al
though plans have been made for its
London debut by Guy Bates post,
for whom the play was written. It
is probable that the eastern presen
tation of the mystery drama will not
be made for two years ypt, so that
patrons of the Players wl have the
novel enjoyment of viewing a pre
Broadway presentation of a play
which will undoubtedly prove a pop
ular offering.
A stolen diamond necklace be
longing to Marie Antoinette, the
falling of the Bastille, the terrorized
flight of the aristocrats form the
basis of the plot of "The Black Fla
mingo," action centering around the
Inn of the Black Flamingo on July
15, 1789. The strange disappearance
of a young man starts the movement
of event j which quickly become com
plicated with mysterious and thrill
ing situations. Wicrd settings and at
mospheric effects will be used to fur
ther the mystery setting of the play.
Miss H. Alice Howell is directing
the production. Evening performan
ces start promptly at 8:20, matinees
at 3 o'clock. Season tickets will ad
mit. Tickets may be purchased at
the Ross P. Curtice Co., or at the

"Jug" Brown was used at a guard
position for a short time yesterday
and because of his basket tossing
ability, qualified nicely for .a run
ning guard berth. However, the vet
eran basketeer was shifted back to
a forward position later in the after
noon. With "Jug" at the forward posi
tion, Grace and Witte alternated as
his running mate, while Elliott at
center, Holm and Lewandowski,
guards finished the playing quintet.
Lack of dash and spirit was in evi
dence during the entire workout, and
unless the Huskers brace up, Drake
will probably be higher in the Valley
table than it now is. Basket shooting
was especially ragged although
Brown rang up several from diffi
cult angles.

Study Different Aspects
From now on the group will con
tinue to read the literature of the
Greeks and of commentators on their
lives and times but will also study
intensively different aspects of their
civilization. The work started with
a study of econmics. It will go for
ward to religion, art, science, drama,
etc. Members of the Experimental
college advisor group especially ver
sed in each subject will direct each
period of specialized work.
By the end of the year, it was
announced before the holidays, each
student will be expected to have
'studied carefully 22 works of 8 fa
mous Greeks Thucydides, Aeschy
lus, Sophocles, Euripides, Aristopha
nes, Plato, Aristotle, and Demos
thenes. He also will be expected to
have mastered studies by nine mod
ern interpreters of Greek civilization.
Besides the reading, each student
is charged with the responsibility of
1 studying carefully seven famous
buildings of Athens, the sculpture
on these buildings and three others
at other ancient Greek cities, and 10
items of original Greek sculpture, as
' wall dq vnp hv fi fnmnna fJrpplr
craftsmen.
Further Requisite
Iii addition, he will be expected
to have a general knowledge of spe
cified writings of 10 other Greeks,
and of 9 other commentators; the
I architecture and sculpture of 14
other buildings, the sculpture of 8
copies of certain Gruik originals,
and the characteristics of a few
vases of each of 8 other craftsmen.
Experimental college students are
attempting independently to pene
trate the spirit of ancient Greece.
Early in December a group of the
students, without outside help, pre
sented two performances of an Eng
lish version of Aristophanes's famous
satire, The Clouds.
The proceeds of the venture in
drama will be used to equip a work
shop in the men's dormitory sections
occupied by the Experimental col
lege student body where the men
may try their hands at copying Greek
art forms or expressing themselves
creatively.

"I like particularly working with
students from so many parts of the
country and with different points of
view," Miss Chapman writes. "We
have men and women from sixteen
states and thiry-two different uni
versities. Some of the colleges rep
resented are Columbia, Ohio Wesle
yan, Northwestern, Vassar, and the
Universities of Alabama, Nebraska,
Michigan, Indiana, Pennsylvania,
California, and Illinois. And though
we come from so many alma maters,
we have developed a lively class spir
it of our own."
The opportunities for college wo
men in recreation work are excell
ent, according to Miss Chapman.
Through more than 9,000 women are
employed by about ' 800 cities, the
field is still uncrowded and is grow
ing with the rapid expansion of the
public recreation movement. The
positions include playground direc
tor, girls' club leader, director of a
community house, and such special
ized jobs as director of community
dramatics or music. Women are also
making a name for themselves as su
perintendents of recreation, who
serve as executive head for all the
leisure time activities in about two
hundred communities, among them
Houston, Charleston, San Francisco,
Salt Lake City, Washington, D. C,
and Westchester Countly, New York.

However, the real purpose of the
convention was to discuss the sub
ject, "The Unification of the World
through Christian Ideals." One of
the astonishing points in his talk
was the opinion and declaration of
Dr. Wei, noted Chinese statesman.
Dr. Wei declared, that from the
time of his childhood he was taught
to make China rich and strong and
to "get even," in relationship with
the western countries, meaning
Europe and the United States.

Of the ' points brought out by
Mozer was the opinion of many of
the delegates from heathen coun
tries who believed that most mis
sionaries don't know w' t they go
to foreign countries. Ho said that
missionaries oMhis day and age
must be highly educated in science
and mathematics and not just have
an essence of Christianity. Dele
gates from other countries view the
United States with alarm and regard
her as a pagan country in ideals and
practical custom. Most of the dele
gates believed that if the Christian
ity taught by missionaries is to be a
success it must interfere and deal
with the economic situations of the
country involved and not just with
the social conditions.
Mr. Mozer held the interest of his
audience and appeared to be well
versed on his subject. Probably
one of the most noticeable things
about his talk was his forceful meth
od of presenting his points and his
Russian accent.
More than fifty students attended
the luncheon which was held at the
Grand Hotel. The speaker was in
troduced by Lee Rankin who was in
charge of the arrangements. The
speaker for next Wednesday will be
Hattie Plum Williams, of the sociol
ogy department, who will speak on
the subject of "Companionate Marriage."
A. W. Adson, Former
Student, Is Visitor
A. W. Adson, a former student
and assistant in anatomy, visited the
campus several days last week. Mr.
Adson is now one of the most prom
inent men in the Mayo Clinic at
Rochester, Minnesota.
Of the 11,000 students at the Uni
