    THE DAILY NEBRASKAN
Lobbying
' By "AT
Lincoln
"I'll have to explain right at the
beginning that I am very partial to
good drama. That's why I am going
to say good things about "The
Noose". First of all because it fea
tures Richard Barthelmess. He does a
mighty fine piece of work. You'll
have tremendous sympathy for him
in the role of "Nicky Elkins". Sec
ondly; it is a wonderful story inter
preted in a most powerful fashion by
artful directing. The story is brimful
of human iterest. It might easily hap
pen in any large city. Yet it is ab
sorbingly different with an ending
that will keep you guessing until the
last thirty seconds.
"Nicky Elkins", a nameless waif,
discovers that the beautiful wife of
the governor is his mother and the
leader of the gang of which he is a
membeTs, is his father. When his
father threatens to disclose the dis
graceful truth, Nicky shoofs him. All
that he will say as his reason for
killing the man is "He was no good."
When the governor's wife begs him
to tell her, (not knowing that she is
talking to her own son) he looks into
her eyes and exclaims "I killed him
because he was no good." When his
sweetheart pays him her last visit on
the evening of the day he hangs, he
exclaims through tears, " because
he was no good."
A beautiful love story, of both
mother love and the other kind. And
girls, take several handkerchiefs.

have to feel silly about it either.
The high spot in the stage presen
tation is the special song number
played by Beaver and his Monarchs.
"A smile is my umbrella", a new
song with a catchy tune and you will
like the way they play it.
Frank Richardson, an old Orpheum
favorite, has a good voice, though
perhaps he uses it too much, or at
least on the wrong kind of sonars.
Babe Fenton and Eddie Lamont
with six little dancing girls offer a
snappy revue of songs and dances
Edde's feet are plenty hot and the
six precious peaches do several very
clever dances.
Orpheum
A comedy drama that features
Norma Talmadge, co-starring Gilbert
Roland. "The Dove" is not as great
a picture as "Camille" in which these
two made such a tremendous hit, but
certainly a picture worth seeing. The
work of Noah Beery, though not his
best, will not go unnoticed. Norma,
as lovely as ever, is well cast in the
role of a little Spanish Senorita, a
dancer in a gambling house.
Mr. Roland as Johnny Powell, the
dice man at a gambling table, falls in
love with Miss Talmadge, Dolores,
The Dove." Of his many rivals a
certain Sandoval (Beery), proves the
most treacherous. Sandoval hires a
Killer" to get Johnny. But Johnny
beats to the draw and the wrong
man dies, as far as Sandoval is con
cerned. So he makes other arrange
ments to do away with Johnny. He
is to be sent across the sea alone.
When Dolores is forced to tell her
Johnny that she does not love him
after all and that she does not wish
to see him again, you will see Miss
Talmadge in her favorite role. John
ny makes a break for freedom only
to end up before the firing squad.
Dolores conceives a clever idea that
delays the execution and finally wins
freedom for Johnny and her,
leaving Sandoval to exclaim in tri
umph, as he watches them drive
away, "God, what a man I am!"
Liberty
The Goose Hangs High" is ax com
edy-drama dealing with the troubles
of a family whose three children are
who later, when the family faces fin
ancial ruin, prove to be true' blue
products of true blue stock. "Grand
ma" is really the one who buoys them
over the rough spot, but the way
the kids win her over in spite of her
dislike of the entire family, provides
plenty of laughs.
The roles are evenly distributed
and the players are especially well
cast. A good evening's entertainment.
Rialto
"The Circus" marks the much her
such a condition is characteristic of
the development of bad art.
The Church was rich and corrupt
too, and a new movement, the Re
formation was started by the poor
people. In Florence Savanarola
preached against the sinfulness of
art to such an extent that the Flor
entine people became greatly excited,
mixing the fine arts with moral cor
ruption, and they burned a great deal
of art work.
Nation Wat Prejudiced
aided triumphant return of Charles A11 tnia happened about the same
Chaplin, the king of fun makers, to j time tn.at the American civilization
the screen, after a protracted vaca-jwas bein8 formed, with the result
tion. The old Chaplin again, even to i that we started as a nation with a
the costume. You will enjoy seeing
him again and besides "The Circus"
is an excellent cure for indigestion,
or whatever disease it is that you can
laugh away.
Broke and hungry Charlie falls in
to a circus job. He doesn't realize
that he is the hit of the show, until
the circus owner's daughter, with
whom he has fallen in love, tells him.
He demands more wages and is grati
fied. The girl falls in love with an
other man, and Charlie is discharged
but he finally takes the girl to her
lover and helps them become married.
The adventures, chases and argu
ments of this thumping little man
with the trick derby and cane, the
wriggling moustache and the feet al
mighty, makes this picture what he
himself calls it, "a low brow com
edy for high brows."
HE'S HERE!

tremendous prejudice against art.
With the industrial revolution of
seventy years ago many people sud
denly became rich and they lost their
old religion. The whole sensible por
tion of the population was called
inartistic. Artists and scholars
thought that to be good in their pro
fession they must be wild and sow
lots of wild oats. The extremely
bad taste of the time gave art r
black eye from which is has not yet
recovered.

same spirit as play according to Pro
fessor Grummann. There is no sad
ness or despondency in art, it is
brimful of joy. "The sad person is
not devout," he declared.
"You accomplish nothing in art
without doing," he wont on, "art
comes form activity, immorality from
inactivity. Art must be done just as
well as it is humanly possible to do
it or it is a failure. Is not that
wonderful excellence that requires
the best that is in you ,an essential
of the moral life?"
History of Art Is Reviewed
Professor Grummann reveiwed the
history of art from the time of the
Roman Empire in the second and
third centuries when th?re was great
moral degradation which was reflect
ed in the art of the times. Then
(Christianity sprang up, espoused by
the common people. They cooupled
the art with the Church and the
i theater and condemned them all as
I bad so that in primitive Christianity
there was included a hatred of the
fine arts.
A stimulating trade with the Ori
ent caused the Renaissance and e
wonderful art grew up. But at the
same time a very bad art grew up
because a few people had grown im
mensely rich in a short time, and

(Continued from Page 1)
a third of the general construction
work is completed.
Andrews Hall, costing approxi
mately $3C0,OOO in all, will be prac
tically the same size as Morrill Hall.
Erected directly south of Morrill Hall
on the northeast corner of the drill
field, it will face the south, fronting
a proposed mall extending from 12th
to 14th street. This is in accordance
with the newer campus development
plan.
Architecture Will Be Harmonious
In architecture the new building
will harmonize with that found in
the other new erections on the cam
pus. Sand-faced red brick will be
used in the construction throughout,
with extensive genuine Bedford
buildings. This is the same combina
tion of brick and stone trimmings
seen on Morrill Hall and a number
of other buildings on the campus.
Pilasters, or fluted columns, of
Bedford stone will extend to the roof
of the building, meeting a cornice of
Bedford rock that extends around the
upper story. The lower sections of
these pilasters arc now in place and
some idea can be obtained as to the
external beauty of the building.
Inside, the plans call for an arrange
ment that corresponds to that in
Social Science.
Larson, junior president, is busi
ness manager of the Awgwan, on
the junior-senior Prom committee, a
Viking, a member of the Student
Council and a member of the Col
lege of Business Administration exe
cutive council. He is a member of
Delta Tau Delta.
Musgrave, sophomore president, is
assistant business manager of the
Awgwan, a Green Goblin and sopho
more football manager. He is an
Alpha Tau Omega.
Myers, freshman president, is a
Daily Ncbraskan reporter, is on the
Cornhusker staff, and a member of
Theta Chi.
Co-Eds Believe Snob
bishness Is Student Sin
(Continued from Page 1)
Sin, according to Webster, i3
moral deficiency in character, a vio
lation of propriety, or a transgression
of divine law. Lent, from the same
source, is the period of forty days
prior to Easter for special penitence.
Are we to give up ice cream cones
and "cokes" as a token of special
penitence, or should we take time to
meditate upon and endeavor to cor
rect our sins as we see them, or as
they are judged by others?
'Bobbie O' Dare
Will Give Talk
(Continued from Page 1)
It is hoped by Theta Sigma Phi
that these luncheons will be of prac
tical benefit to women who expect to
enter the writing field. The advan
tages and disadvantages of a special
ized field will be revealed. This
luncheon will be of particular inter
est to those who are interested in
the newspaper field either as full
time or part time work.
"It is needless to say that these
luncheons have my hearty support,"
declared Gayle C. Walker in recom
mending the luncheons to his class
in news writing. "I feel that they
may have a very practical benefit
for students."
Students Cast Wierd
Votes at Annual Polling
(Continued from Page 1)
and were wont to vote only for their
dear sisters neglecting to fill out all
four spaces provided. In some cases
it was this or nothing when all four
selections were filled with members
of one sorority. Anyway it is a pleas
ure to know that they have four
graduating senior girls in their or
ganization, which is a thing to be
proud of.
Freshmen, sophomores, juniors,
and otherwise, also were nominated
for prom girl selection by over zeal
ous admirers. Handwriting failed to
reveal who they were but secret love
affairs could easily be made public
by those who counted the prom girl
vote.
Novel Prom Girl It Nominated
Rumors that present day football
is turning to the more effeminate
type of play took on a new phase
when members of our gridiron eleven
received nominations for, prom girl
selection. Names should not be men
tioned for many reasons, one of
which is they should not be men
tioned. But if the six girls nominated
for final .voting at the Prom, March
2, could gaze upon the list of compe
tition, ranging from football men to
unknown persons, what a surprise
they would have.
A last minute rush at the polls,
nearly caused a riot when members
of the different political factions be
came frightened that their majority
would be upset. The amusing part of
it was that neither knew how the
other stood but they were not willing
to let well enough alone.
And now, political leaders may sit
back in their chairs, light the pipe
and prepare their campaign for the
coming spring elections. May he win4
