That the barking dogs In the

great annoyances and disturbing
factors to the. morale of any class.
Frequent complaints have been

cerning the architecture of the an
nex and the howls which emerge
from it at frequent Intervals dur

yelping dogs were to the effect
that the noise was very disturbing,
annoyed the faculty men in their
classes, and often caused them to
stop in the middle of their lectures
and wait several minutes for the
commotion to subside.
Comments on the annex itself
ranged all the way from doing
away with it by forceful means to
the question "Is that part of Re
gent Seymours plans for campus
beautification?"
"I am frequently barked down
in mv classes and have to stop in
the middle of a lecture due to the
commotion made by dogs in the
new piiarmacy college annex,"
stated Dean J. D. Hicks, of the
arts and science college. "I can't
understand why the building was
built. Those yelps certainly are
disconcerting and do not help one
to hold attention of a class, es
pecially in these days when spring

FAWELL SPEAKS AT
HOLY WEEK SERVICE
Methodist Pastor Talks on
'The Tragic Almost' to
Gathering.
Rev. W. C. Fawell. Methodist
student pastor, was the speaker
Monday afternoon at the first of
the special Holy week services
which are being held at 5 o'clock
each afternoon during this week
at the University Episcopal church
at Thirteenth and P. street. The
services are under the auspices of
the federation of church workers
at the university.
The topic of the talk Monday
was "The Tragic Almost. ' The
scriptural basis for the address
was the incident where Christ
wept over Jerusalem coupled with
His declaration concerning the
temple after He had driven out
the money lenders. ,
He developed his subjett briefly
as follows: "This day of Holy
week is known as one of author
ity. Its full significance can only
b understood as we associate it
with the day of triumph, closing
with the weeping of the Son of
Man and the Son of God over the
tragic almost of life.
Faith Necessary.
Jesus did not say, as did a re
cent speaker visiting the campus,
that he was willing to let all but
a workable majority go to hell, if
they cared to do so. He attempted
to pull his small group of followers
out from the tragedy of becoming
tragic almosts. A little later He
cursed the fig tree and when his
disciples wondered at ' it He told
them that with faith they might
remove mountains. He challenged
the worst conditions in most un

Dean LeRossipnol Says 'Sob Sisler
Should Be Decided Success; Declares
Plot Is Novel, Characters Distinct
Dean J. K. LcRossignol, of tho business administration col
lope who has achieved considerable fame through his Bhort
stories of French Canadian life, stated in a recent interview
with a Xebraskan reporter that be thought "Sob Sister" to
be produced by Kosmet Klub April 24, 25, and 26, should prove
of great interest to its audience and should be a decided success.
Dan LcRossignol was asKCi oy
the club to read the original book
in order that he might give his
opinion of it and his exact state
ment upon completing the manu
script was, "I enjoyed reading it.
It is a good story. After I had
once started I did not want to quit
until I had finished. That is a
compliment to any production."
Has Fame as Writer.
Dean LcRossignol is famous for
his hobby of writing short stories
in his spare time. In the latest
review of American short stories
by the well known critic, O'Brien,
Dean L-Rossignol's stories were
very highly recommended. He has
had a number of them published
in the various national magazines.
"I have never written a play al
though I could easily have cast
some of my short stories into a
dramatized form," said D3aa Le-
Rossignol. T could not, therciore,
criticize 'Sob Sister" as the author
of a play. But from my experi
ence ia dealing with short stories
and also as the average man who
seeks entertainment when he goes
to the theater, I am giving my
comment.
Plot It Novel.'
"The plot is a novel one. I think
the idea of using two convicts as
principal characters of thr play
is unusual and should satisfy that

which every modern American
seems to possess. The idea of plac
ing two of the scenes in a prison
in contrast to the one in the home
of a society matron is also good."
Distinct types are to be found
in "Sob Sister's" characters, ac-
rr.rdinp- to Dr. LeRossiCTol. Es
pecially is this true, he thinks, in
the cases of Bennie, comeay icaa,
Bob, leading man, George, prison
guard, Virgil, the leading man's
rival, and the sob sister, woman

'Should Be Striking.'
"If these characters are played
nn with the nroner emnhasis by
mnahlii actors thev should prove
very striking," declared the dean.
Humor in the play is of a good
ripan tvme and should Drove en
joyable to everyone who witnesses
it, according to ur. LKossignoi.
The numerous "puns" are likewise
good and clever. Dean LeRossig
nol stated that the play was a
nice piece of work and should be
easily made into a very present
able musical comedy. It repre
sents a good deal of effort, he de
clared, adding that, from bis own
experience, it was hard to do any
thing of that kind and it required
considerable patience and hard
work.

ELIGIBILITY RULES MADE
Strict Requirements Keep
One-Third of People
From Activities.
Wisconsin's 'iileraliim'' is the
oiiut aniline tradition hi the
Msdger instil. Hum. according to
the editor of The DiMty Cardinal,
official Htudcnt neap?r f that
Institution. In reply to a question
naire condmted by The Daily Ne-bra-kan.
There u absolutely "no"
faculty control over publication
at the Wisconsin center of learn
ing, and very little faculty intrr
fcirnce In ludrnl aiiixilica and
affairs.
According to the Cardinal ed
itor, schixil spirit Is not en
gendered in a tangible way and
there are only two football rallies
held during the season, neither of
which ever Interferes with ias.es.
The university requires, however,
that students purchase a reven

to athletic events.
Answers of the Wisconsin s;Mibe
In reference to the prohibition

little attention Is paid to drinking
problems. He does concede that

that they are In ignorance ( ex

Late Hours.
The hour at which good little

analogical with that at Nebraska
except for the Prom and Military
boll. On weekend nights women
students may remain out until
12:30 but on week nip'-s and Sun
day night they must return before
the clock hands have passed the
10:30 mark. The Prom lasts from
9 until 2 o'clock, and the Military
ball commences at 9 and ends at
I o'clock.
The Badger scrivener reports
that there is a distinct cleavage
between Greek and non-Greek stu

two groups rests wholly in individ

frat and sorority crowd.
Student elections are wholly free

a desire for more personal liberty
but In the interests of expedience
and convenience.
Not Favored.
It cannot be said that the 12:30
o'clock time limit meets with uni
versal favor. A few want the
deadline even further extend'd -hut
welcome the 12:30 clause as an
able substitute. Restaurant own
ers are unitedly behind the move
ment, for it is the routine trip to
the restaurants after "parlies''
that comprises the chief impedi
ment in meeting the 45-minule
time allowed for arrival at sorority
houses and dormitories.
Don Kelley, president of the Kor
met Klub. declare.? : "Since there is
no moral issue presented by tba
12:30 o'clock night, the truth cf
which Is not disputable, it is obvi
ous that the 12:1.1 limit is a mere
arbitrary rule. If no good reason
for its existence can be put forth
It seems to me that convenience
and expediency are sufficient rea
sons for changing the present arbi
trary rule. I hope that this cru
sade does not end without accom
plishing ks purpose."
Larson Gives Opinion.
Eldred Larson, president of the
Innocents, also advocates adoption
of the 12:30 deadline. "Forty-five
minutes allows ton little lime for
returning from parties, but I think
an extra fifteen minutes sufficient.
