WEEK IS ELABORATE
'Beggar on Horseback' Has
Twenty-One Scenery
Changes.
CLOTH DROPS ARE USED
With twenty-one changes of
scenery in three acts, "Begger on
Horseback," which starts next
Monday at the Temple, promises
to be one of the most elaborate
productions, as regards scenic
arrangements, ever presented by
the university players. It is said
to be as "big" as any musical
comedy playing in the United
States and is the largest scenic
venture ever undertaken by the
university players.
The scenery is quite "expres
sionistic" as opposed to the usual
realistic drops used in the pre
sentation of plays. The dominat
ing color is red and the color
scheme is carefully adhered to
even to the two runaways from the
auditorium to the stage which are
painted a brilliant red. Weird and
grotesque objects are pictured on
the futuristic drops, and many
little tricks, known only to the
stage designer, have produced fan
tastic effects and optical illusions.
For example there is a cell scene
which shows four people In a cell.
By portraying the cell as twelve
feet high at one end and five feet
at the other, the effect of looking
down a long row of cell3 Is given.
"Judge" Scene Unique.
The "Judge" scene is quite
unique too. At a given cue, which
is reputed to be the cleaverest
"crack" in the entire play, the
Judge's bench quite suddenly rises
high in the air. Also unusual is
the scene played with the actors
coming from the audience, the
entire scene being done in dance
rhythm. Music is practically the
main theme of the show.
The sound devices consist of a
piano, two radios, a dictaphone,
and a microphone. F. L. Seaton,
bas added a new property to the
players' collection and it will be
used for the first time In the new
play. It is a green canvas .floor
cloth which Bob Reed, stage
manager, declares is the pride of
his career here.
The larger number of scenes Is
able to be used because cloth drops
are employed. They can be packed
close together and thus take up
little room. All of the scenery has
been designed and executed by the

ROAD IHfi SHOW
Faulkner rMegotiates With
Nebraska Towns for
Spring Booking.
WILL BEGIN WORK SOON
Negotiations are now being
made by Kosmet Klub with several
Nebraska towns preparatory to
booking a complete tour for the
club's annual spring show. Edwin
Faulkner, business manager, is
now in correspondence with these
towns and many of them have
reported favorable, he announced.
Each spriLg the club takes its
musical comedy to play in various
towns in the state. This year it
has started negotiations earlier
than in former years in an effort
to book the production in more
towns than it has in the last few
years.
In fully carrying out this corre
spondence with Nebraska towns,
a great deal of work has been
accumulated. All students who
aspire towards becoming a mem
ber of the club or those who would
like to earn activity points are
asked to report to the club rooms,
according to Faulkner.
Selection ot the musical comedy
to be used for this spring's pro
duction will be made immediately
after the deadline for the submis
sion of manuscripts. The deadline
is Jan. 16. Work on the produc
tion of the play will start right
after the winning play is cnosen.
The winner will be awarded $50.
Ten plays have already been
turned in to Dick Devereaux and
more are expected before the dead
line by members of the organiza
tion. An Rll-male cast will be used
aain this year as has been the
rule in the past. Only two or three
times bas this tradition been
broken.
Last year the show, "High and
Dry," was takenfor a showing only
at Hastings, home town of Bill
McCJeery, author of the comedy.
Plans had been made to make two
or three other towns on the itiner
ary, but these were abandoned
with favorable booking conditions
could not be obtained.
McCleery, who was graduated
fr m the school of Journalism last
spring and is now engaged in ad
vertising work in New York city,
was author ot the last three Kos
met shows. In 1929 the Klub pro
duced his "Don't Be Silly." In
3930 he again won the prize offer
ed by the organization with his
three act comedy, "Sob Sister."

Utopian Weather Schedule Sent
To Weather Man; No Use-Snow
Still Here Despite Every Effort
BY IDA HOZENOZZLE.
Honestly sometimes I think Nebraska weather is one of
Nature's more irritating temperamental moments. Weather has
always troubled me to some extent. In the summer it is too hot,
in the winter it is too cold, in the spring it is too wet and chilly,
and in the fall it is too windy and dry. I worry and fret and
fume as each season approaches. 1 feel that if only that one
trnnhlpanma element mieat oe-r
eliminated from Mother Nature's
scheme my life might be consider
ably brighter. . .
I have talked to the weather
man no end of times. I have
worked out a lovely schedule of
days nice, calm, sunshiney days
the kind of weather outsiders
think California has. Oh I was
not unreasonable either. I included
two or three days of gentle winds
and drifting ciouds. I did not for
get that April showers bring May
tlowers, nor that gentle violets and
dandelions are often found nestling
coyly beneath snow blankets. In
short, it was a schedule that few
authorities, of even the most im
posing mien, could rightfully dis
regard or dismiss. I rewrote the
whole thesis in my best purple
inked long hand on some tasty
pale green stationery I received
last Christmas. As you have prob
ably guessed, U really looked very
nice when I finished. I signed my
name at the bottom, stamped and
addressed the envelope to Mr.

Observer Says Absence
Student Interest Is
Striking.
of
NAMES THREE EPISODES
Faction Action, Law-Kosmet
Scrap, Hotel Boycott
Noteworthy.
BY THE OBSERVER.
Almost complete lack of student
interest in activities has been one
of the chief characteristics of
campus life outside the classroom
during the current semester.
In conversations with ten mem
bers of the senior class who may
be classed as "activity men" it has
been reported that at no time
within the last four years have
things been so dull. Publications
are having one of the hardest
years in history, according to
members of editorial and business
staffs of the Cornhusker, Awgwan,
and Nebraskan. One of the main
reasons for this difficulty, they
say, is an almost alarming lack of
assistance.
In general there have been three
events which have stirred student
interest during the current semes
ter, as far as the influence of
things extra-curricular is con
cerned. These three include the
Yellow Jacket and Barb refusal
to file candidates for office, the
law college-Kosmet Klub scrap,
and the Interfraternity council's
temporary boycott of hotels and
orchestras.
Results Effected.
Most outstanding of the three
episodes, because of the fact that
is really accomplished something,
is the hotel and orchestra boycott.
By the simple method of unitedly
declaring they hold no more down
town parties until prices were re
duced fraternities, acting through
their official organ the Interfra
ternity council, managed to effect
impressive financial savings. The
women did the same through their
Panhellenic council.
The 'political stroke,' executed
bv two campus factions when they
refused to file candidates in the
fall election, saying the offices
were useless, is noteworthy only

TODAY IS DEADLINE
Editor Calls for Material
For Greek Number of
Campus Comic.
Today is the deadline on all copy
for the January "fraternity and
sorority issue" of the Awgwan,
Marvin Robinson, editor of the hu
mor magazine has announced.
Definite publication date has not
yet been declared, but Editor Rob
inson has indicated that it will be
about Jan. 18. Most of the copy
for the January number of the hu
mor sheet was turned in during
the Christmas holidays.
In response to a call for coed
assistance in mailing copies of last
month's issue to high schools thru
out the state, enough workers res
ponded to make the scheme prac
tical, Robinson stated. Mailing op
erations will begin soon, he prom
ised. Numbers of the December "for
mal issue" of the publication are
being sent to editors of state high
school publications in an attempt
to increase the circulation of the
magazine.
"It is hoped," the editor de
clared, "that the recipients of the
sample copy will show enough in
terest in the magazine to respond
in a material way."
Weather Man, Washington, D. C.
I did not know his full name, but
I thought to myself, "such a well
known character will certainly be
quite familiar to the postman."
I have v-ted some time now,
but as yet i.ave had no reply. I
comfort myself with the thought
that Mr. Weather Man is a busy
man, and probably with the de
pression and all has discharged
his secretary. I like to believe that
he will eventually get to my letter,
and tired and weary as he may be,
instantaneously recognize the ster
ling qualities in it. He will sum
mon me to Washington, and to
gether we will work out the finer
details of the schedule in time for
next winter I hope.
Mercy! The wind Just blew the
door open, and the snow is whirl
ing in. I suppose I shall have to
stifle the murderous murmurings
in my iieart, and trample on my
pride, and close it. Honestly,
sometimes I think Nebraska

irritating temperamental moments

not interfere with the dancers,
however, it will be swept from the
floor almost as fast as it falls, the
announcement added.
Delphian Nash, chairman of the

'Ladies of the Jury' by Nebraska
Graduate, Is 'Knockout' as Screen
Production Says Hollywood Paper
"Ladies of the Jury," the rollicking comedy which was pro
duced last winter by the University Players with Miss Alice
Howell plavinpr the lead, has just made its Nebraska author
John Fred Ballard, an outstanding i'ifoire in picture land as well
as the figure he now cuts in playwriting. The picture, just pro
duced in Hollywood, has been enumerated as a "knockout and
its first audience "howled wltho
glee," according to the Hollywood
Reporter.
The play has induced the fol
lowing comment by Hollywood's
official picture paper:
"This is the kind of picture that
will bring people back to the the
aters. It's a clean break from
everything hackneye.' and trite,
and it will click with any audience
of normal American citizens with
a normal American sense of hu
mor." Ballard, its now famous author,
graduated from the University of
Nebraska in 1905. His home was
in Havelock. He was a major in
dramatics and English while in
the university here and took an
active part in debate. After
spending a short time on a ranch
in Colorado he came back to the
university to work for his master's
degree. He received it in 1907 and
then entered Harvard where he
was a student under George Pierce
Baker in the famous Harvard play
writing group known as "Work

James A. Cuneo Speaks at
World Forum Session
Wednesday.
SAYS 'FORTIFY JUSTICE'
"Answer to the question of
United States entering the World
rVinrt is nnt 'vps' or 'no' but "when"
and 'how'," James A. Cuneo of the
department of economics tola stu
dents of the university at the
u'oolrlv lnnrhonn meeting of the
World Forum at the Grand hotel
yesterday.
"United States has already sig
nifiaH its intention to enter the
court. It did this when the senate
authorized entrance in 1926, pro
viHino' fiv reservations were
granted. Ratification of the three
protocols now in me nanas oi tire
Bonn t- foreign relations commit
tee would require entrance," he
said.
Explaining the significance oi
the World Court. Mr. Cuneo said
Vint thp orp-anlzation Is not a
panacea for the ills of the world,
nor a 100 percent cure ior war. n
is, he declared, a step in the right
direction and the exemplification
of the most enlightened of the two
International doctrines today.
Two Doctrines Today.
These two' doctrines are: First,
the "doctrine of international sus
picion and rancor, represented by
more armaments and bigger and
better wars;" second, the "doctrine
of international co-operation, re-!
presented by such institutions as
the World Court and the desire to
settle disputes peacefully."
unless we cnose iue uuu-ei
path to peaceful settlement of in
ternational disputes, we must face
the prospect of distraction by
armed nationalism, he affirmed.
"War anywhere is a danger every
where. The cost of the last war bas
been estimated at 52 billion dol
lars, provided the international
war debts are collected, and thirty
eight billion more if these are not
collected. Another war would be
even more destructive of property
and life with the added terrors of
ever advancing knowledge of
chemical and air warfare. We
must fortify justice and peace
rather than justify war and force."
It is in this need for peaceful
settlement that the importance of
th Wnrid Court lies as an exem
plification of this course. The hope
of this course, ne conciuueu, un
