VISITORS NEVER HEADED
Alexander Rings Goal for
25 Points; Copple Is
Nebraska Star.
BY BOB GLOVER.
Led by the sharpshooter Floyd
Alexander, the Wayne Normal
Wildcats chalked up a 47 to 37 vic
tory over Wilber Knight's Nebras
ka Ag B team Friday night on the
Ag college court.
Alexander was the outstanding
player of the game with his ex
cellent floor work and deadly aim
on the basket. He topped the scor
ing list with eleven Held goals and
three donations for a total of
twenty-five points. Copple. with a
dozen counters, and Walker with
ten were next in line.
The Wayne State teachers were
in the lead from the beginning of
the game and after the first few
minutes kept a safe margin in the
scoring column. Within a minute
of the initial whistle Alexander
opened hostilities with the first
basket and when Walker and Le
Doyt of the Knight tribe followed
the' example, the rest of the Wild
cats opened up and the B's had
tough sledding from then on.
Wayne Ahead at Half.
Although at first playing was
lagged and the Teachers had
things pretty much their way. as
the half age'd the fray became
more lively and Copple. with the
help of LeDoyt. succeeded in boost
ing the Knightmen score a few
notches. The boost was not suffi
cient, however, for every one of
the Wildcats dropped at least one
through the hoop and Andrews
was picking up Alexander's habit
i if repeating. The half ended with
the score 24 to 12 in Wayne's
favor.
The man who started things in
the second half was again Alexan
der. After he sank two free throws
followed shortly by Baker's field
goal, he proceeded to concentrate
on his business and made the next
ten points to be added to the
Teachers score. The B quintet was
not altogether inactive, however,
,!nd Beadle, immediately after re
placing LeDoyt at forward dis
patched a long one that straighten
ed out the net. Mauch and Walker
i-ach counted one and then Beadle
scorted the ball the length of the
floor and left it safely at home for
two more points.
B Team Rallies.
Resembling the Nebraska vars
itv. the B team made a last minute
i ally that advanced their standing
by a dozezn odd points, but Alex
ander's fevered streak earlier in
the half had put the Wildcats too
tar out front. Copple, who was
playing a hangup game at the cen
!er position on Knight's crew, was
instrumental in that last push and
Mauch and Walker gave needed
support. Sund, who relieved Sexton
at center in the dying minutes of
the game, added four to the score
very hurriedly, but the B's had the
last word when Livingston dropped
one in just as the final whistle
blew.
The downfall of the Knightmen
teally began about the middle of
the first half when the Wayne
Staters settled down after a fren
zied start and discarded the wild
parses and bungled setups. It was
about this time that Alexander
first noticed the warmth that in
the second half developed into a
whtie heat. The B team were trou
bled considerably with inaccuracy,
incompleted passes and Alexander.
Although eclipsed by the bril
liance of his teammate. Lindamood
proved flis right to his position of
aptain of the Wildcats by being

M
Persian Students Are Hard Put to
Understand Modern American Customs
BY MONROE KEZER.
tdltur, .Nrlirmkmi. 1B2S.
Modern buildings, good schools,
large business houses, improved
highways, an abundance of auto
mobiles are neither new nor sur
prising to two young Persian stu
dents who have enrolled in the
University of Nebraska, this year
after a stormy trip from their na
tive land.
But "seeing the women doing all
the work und all the men unem
ployed" does take their breath
away a bit.
The students are Fatullah K.
Mostoft and Mohammed A. M.
Agahsi. The latter is heie to study
agriculture, to take knowledge of
American methods back to apply,
in Persia. His companion is pre
paring for service as a doctor, in a
foreign land as his father did be
fore him.
Plans Studying Medicine.
"My father studied in France,"
he comments. "He went half way."
1 have come the full way." A
beaming smile indicated the com
plete satisfaction. Mostofi felt in
being in this country. He hopes to
complete his premedical work this
year so as to enter the medical
college next fall.
Women have two places In Per
sia, the students say, the home and
the school.
"You don't find them in the busi
ness houses, there," Aghast com
ments, "but here everywhere you
go-all the clerks are women in all
of the stores, nearly. Women are
doing this, and that, and the men j
all seem to be out of employment."
He nodded gravely. He quite evi
dently disapproved. "It seems to
me better that the women not do
all the work. Then you would not
wonder what to do with the men."
For the most part, however, the
Persian students have evidently
felt at ease in this country. The
present shah of Persia has carried
on a rapid process of Eurnpeani
zation of his country since he
gained the throne by a" coup d'etat
in 1925.
Women Forsake Veils.
The veiling of women, custom
ary for centuries when thty ap
peared in public, has been aband
oned. European clothes are worn.
European made for the better
classes, Persian tailor maae for
the poorer classes.
Altho the veiling of women has
passed, the high walls which
once assured the privacy of the
homes and yards cf Persian fam
ilies remain. The result, Aghasi
points out, is thai. Persian streets
look like alleys, straight, barren.
Back of the walls, hovever, they
feel that the Persian yard is more
attractive than the abrupt grass
slopes of the American yard.
"There are great gardens, wide
sweeps of flowers and attractive
designs," Mostofi tells, "that make
the yards very beautiful."
The little shop, so commonly
thought of as the symbol of the
east, has faded away under the
lee. Walker, the acting captain of
the B team, was in evidence at all
times because of his consistency.

scenes of the play deal with other
than the artist's dream.
By Kaufman and Connelly.
The play was written by those
masters of satiric comedy 8. Kauf
man and Marc Connelly, and has
been judged by the dramatic critic
Burns Mantle to be one of the ten
best plays of 1923 and 1924. Alex
ander Wolcott in his preface to the
published volume says that the
play represents a distaste for the
view-point, complacency and very
idiom of Rotarian America.
The performance is the most ex
pensive one that has been put on
this year, with twenty-one changes
tn scenery. The scenery departs
from the realistic for the fantastic.
In the cell scene one end of the
cell is twelve feet in the air and

Europeanlzation of Persian cities,
tho students say. Stores larger
than those of Lincoln are frequent
in the larger Persian cities, al
though there are no skyscrapers.
Ten stories is about the maximum.
Persian Law Stronger.
One great difference the Persian
students notice between their na
tive land and the United States is
In the attitude toward law enforce
ment. Mostofi was anxious to tell about
it. "There is one difference, if you
don't mind. You had here in Lin
coln a bank robbery. A group of
what you call gangsters come in
with guns and machine guns and
when the police officers came up,
they were ordered away.
"If any of our officers had done
that, thty would have been shot."
To prove the point, the students
related an instance of a guard at a
prison. Four of the five guaroa had
been killed and the convicts ord
ered the remaining guard to turn
his weapons over to them. He did
so. As a lesult, the government
ordered that he be shot.
Severe punishment, they say, U
meted out alike to burglars and
other ot'fendeis and to officers
who fail to fulfill their duty. Aside
from these two classes, only one
other gets rough treatment, the
youths say.
Kill All Reds.
That is the communist propa
gandizes Anyone spreading com
munist propaganda is killed im
mediately ond iscovery of the fact.
Altho the government's ire is di
rected chiefly at the communist, no
criticism of he government is per
mitted. "None is needed." the two stu
dents here say, "since the present
shah came into power." They are
enthusiastic over his work and are
confident the people have approved
of his reforms.
"It is different from that in Af
ghanistan." says Mostofi. "There
they revolted "because their ruler
was Europeanizing their customs.
In our country, we revolted to get
a ruler who would do that."
Differences in the climate and in
the appearance of the people in
Persia and here have especially at
tracted the attention of the two
foreign students.
Finds it 'older Here.
Altho they both come from
northwestern Persia, living at al
titudes of about 6,000 feet, rela
tively near the mountains, the
find Lincoln colder. "It is ad amp
cold here." Aghasi says he never
wore an overcoat in Persia altho
at times in the winter it is 20 be
low zero, while he has worn one
much oftbe time since arriving in
Lincoln.
"So many of you here have blue
eyes and light hair, too." Aghasi
says, "while in Persia everyone is
dark, dark eyes, black hair." It
was evident that they noticed the
diference far more than would an
American used to all colors of eyes
and hair.

illusion of a row of cells. The
dominating color scheme of the
scenes is red.
The Judge literally goes up in the
air in this play. Alter a very
potent remark, the judge's bench
rises high above the stage. One
scene is entirely in rhythmic pan
tonine. The actors come from the
audience and do the scene in dance
rhythm.
Class Makes Scenery.
Cloth drops make the many
scenes possible. They are light and
can be packed close together. A
class in scenic design under Dwigbt
Kirsch and Ruth Page Is respons
ible for the scenic effects. Eight
captains from the class were in
direct supervision of the work.
They are: Portia Boynton, Clare
Hallet, Lois Picking, Rohna Smith,
Jim Zook, Elizabeth Betzer, Pat
MacDonald and Juliette Barney.
The costumes and exaggerated
proportions of the scenery give a
weird, fantastic atmosphere, cre
ating a setting extraordinary for
comedy.
Music is practically the theme
of the play. The sound devices
used are a piano, two radios, a
dictaphone and a microphone. The
play is based on a German drama
by John Ape!.

apparent enthusiastic support
which the members individually
