Shortly before o'clock Tuts
day morning, two membara of
Phi Sigma Kappa fraternity
were seen weaving out of tha
fraternity house driveway. With
deft manipulation tha driver
succeeded in chugging his col
legUtely open flivver up on tha
sidewalk to tha north of tha
Phi Sg house, on tha comer of
Fourteenth and R streets.
Coming to stop directly be
neath a tree, the old Ford
gasped and sputtered. Tha
drivrr'a accomplice climbed
cautiously up on the back of
the rear scat, reached into the
Overhanging limbs of the tree
and hauled down a frightened
erwny est.
Students who had paused,
Curirus, on their way to I
o'clock classes watched tha open
air car sidle back into tha drive
way, wilnesed the release of
a relieved cat and hiked on to
ward the campus, their faitli in
fraternity men restored.
leaders should at leant have aa
equal chance, and should not be
forced to grow up by accident.
"No one tlelres artixts that are
bcgogglcd. artiHta that are hedged
in by the pedantry of learning,
artist that are ao hopelesaly
bound by tradition of the past
that thev have nothing to aay in
their own name. If college and
university training in art means
that, no sane man can welcome
it.
"We of the universities are pain
fully aware of the fact that we are
still harboring pedanta In our
chairs of literature," admitted
Prof. Grummann. "but we are
not ready to abandon our college
in that branch and we are firmly
of the opinion the literature of
the coming generation will profit
by this activity.
"Our art departments will cer
tainly harbor some traditionalist,
but the youth of our universities,
protected by an elective system,
will never allow this evil to be
come serious. There has always
been a glorious Independence in
college youth and there la nothing
on the horizon to indicate that
this spirit is In decline.
Leadership Ahead.
"The time has come when
Europe and America are again
looking forward to enlightened
leadership and expert service. We
again Insist that a trained pharm
acist should dispense our pills that
traained dentists tease our molars,
that a certified teacher train our
children. Why not see to It that
we be inppircd by cultured art
ists ?" he demanded.
"When fine arts are Incorpor
ated in our schools, the art stud
ent will really have a chance to
show what the possibilities of art
are in America. In addition to this
the fine arts will bring & refine
ment, a culture, an enthusiasm to
the general student that will con
vert his drugery into something
like inspired work."
Professor Grummann will speak
again next Tuesday over radio
station KFAB on "Art Galleries
of Europe," at 2:30 p. m.

man mentor. His football teams
have furnished the varsity with
high class material year after
year. In addition, he has assisted
in varsity preparation at various
times. His baseball team of last
season, the first Nebraska put out
for several years, brought in a
conference title, and prospects
look fair for another flag this
year. He has also assisted Henry
"Indian" Schulte in track coach
ing. Tribute was paid to Rhodes by1
all of bis associates here today.
The consensus was that his all
around knowledge of athletics
would carry him far in the coach
ing profession.
He will take up his new duties
July 1. In order to conduct a
coaching school. His real work
will begin in the fall when bis first
football team will take the field.
According to those who have
visited the Wyoming institution,
its athletic equipment is far above
the average. They declared today
that Rhodes will have wonderful
facilities for his work at the new
school.

school, and a record clear of all
incompletes, failures or conditions.
The second basis for selection of
members of Mortar Board is ser
vice in colege activities of all sorts.
The quality of service more man
the quantity Is regarded as impor
tant for participation in a very
large number of activities to which
none have been done Justice does
not determine a girl's service to
college activities as much as the
conscientious care with which she
has worked at what she has been
interested in, according to the
opinions expressed by various
members of the present group.
Leadership Important.
The third basis of consideration
is leadership. Service is impor
tant, but service which Is mere
drudgery is not important, and no
girl should receive the honor of
Mortar Board membership who
has not also contributed something
to the college activities in the way
of original enterprise and leader
ship. These three bases of considera
tion are general for all chapters
of Mortar Board, and senior wo
men who cast votes at the polls
tomorrow are urged to choose girls
who have really qualified for dis
tinction in scholarship, service, and
leadership.
Those thirty Junior women who
receive the highest number of
votes in this election by the senior
women, will comprise the list of
girls from which the present chap
ter of Mortar Board will select Its
successors. This list of thirty will
first be sent to the registrar to be
checked for scholarship, and the
girls who are finally selected will
be among those who remain on
the list after this final scholastic
check.

of aawtng, whittling, chiseling or
turning on a lathe. iiHiay mesc

declared.
Plastic materials are those which
may bo shaped by pressure, the
Kiwikfr reiterated. Telephone re

Shellao Important.
"The most Important plastic
resin is shellac which Is secreted
by the lac insect on the twigs of

boring parts of the Far East.
Phonograph records are molded
from plastic materials consisting
largely of shellac," he related.
Until as late as 1922 automobiles
were finished with varnish and
enamels containing linseed oil and
other oils that dried by a slow
process. The time required to fin
ish an automobile body by that
process might be as long as three
weeks. Today thia has been re
duced to a few hours by the devel
opment of certain lacquers that
dry by evaporation of a volatile
solvent. Dr. Deming said In dis

pyroxylin lacquers.
MISSlllESlOEO,
KAMAKABRI RAO SAYS
Acceptance of Principles
Of Christianity by
Ghanrii Is Good.
"Christianity is doing and will
do a lot for the people of India,
but only through the right kind of
missionaries," stated M. Kamaka
brt Rao, Hindu engineering student
from the University of Kansas at
Vespers Tuesday evening.
Christianity has already given to
many people of India a definite.
cone ret 3 outlook on what they
thought Intangible things, accord
ing to Rao. Gbandi, the greatest
political leader India ever pro
duced, bases many of bis ideas on
the service of the mount. When
the Indians realize that Ghandi,
whom they adore, believes in the
Bible, they will think there is
something in it, he stated.
Missionaries are needed, but
good ones who will teach the right
ways of living and thinking. There
are already too many of the wrong
type, Mr. Rao says. "We hope you
send more of the right type.
The present tendency of the
Hindu is to analyze every religion
he comes in contact with and take
the best from each of them.
Christianity has done a little in
abolishing the caste system and
bringing the four different social
classes on an equal footing, Rao
declared.
In briefly outlining the history
of India M. Rao pointed out that
the Indians were of Aryan stock.
India consists of a number of na
tive states ruled by princes or
rajahs. The Indians are a dark
skinned race due to climatic con
ditions although there are many
blonde Indians. A great number
of religions originated in India, in
cluding Hinduism, Mohammedan
ism, Buddhism and combinations
of these.
