Likewise fans show their ap

ance of the past two Stuart

stration of public entertainment

time benefit their own interests.
University movie fans will have
the usual varied array of current
presentations to furnish distrac

showings are reruns of two proven
productions and the usual variety
of unusual stories, program pic
tures and notable production.
STATE.
ine siate tneater win nave a
split week with "Night Nursa" and
"Five Star Final." "Night Nurse
has proven itself a better than
average production by its financial
success and oy the favorable com
ment evoked from hard-shelled,
eastern critics. It Is a story of
nurses, doctors, ambulances and
bootleggers with a strong human
Interest appeal. The prominent
cast includes Barbara Stanwyck in
what Is probably her most popular
role, Ben Lyon, Clark Gable and
Joan Blondell.
"Five Star Final" takes the fun
behind the scenes of a modern
tabloid daily to sea supposed ruth
les.sness of newspaper methods. It
has perhaps all the questionable
methods of tabloid publishing
crammed into one film with a pos
sible drastic result but not a very
likely one. The convincing part of
the story is Kdward G. Robinson's
characterization of the conscience
stricken managing editor. The cast
includes Marian Marsh, Anthony
Bushnell, H. B. Warner, Boris
Karloff and Ona Munson.
STUART.
The newest effect of Richard
Barthelmess is "Alias the Doctor"
at the Stuart. It is quite new, but
so far seems to be carrying out
Barthelmess' expectations. Marian
Marsh supports.
ORPHEUM.
A rather light but Interesting
yarn is that of a beauty contest
winner who marries a millionaire
In "She Wanted a Millionaire." It
will play the Orpheum. Joan Ben

and James Kerrigan are the Im
portant players of the cast Spen
cer Tracy as the loyal hometown
boy and Una Merkel as the sob
sister pal of the winner enliven the
story.

his repentance at bis thoughts so
overcame him that he became se
riously ill and was for a long time
in a hospital. His health was poor
before he left Nebraska. He is re
covering, according to Lian Yu,
but is still very weak and able to
teach but a few hours a week Li a
high school.
A frequent visitor "behind the
scenes," he learned the practical
problems of telephony along with
his work in engineering at the
university, where he was known
as a keen student in mathematics.
When he graduated, he worked
in Chicago for a telephone com
pany which later transferred his
to its Shanghai branch. While
with that company, Lian Yu spent
six months helping install a com
mon battery telephone exchange at
Changchow. Later he helped in
stall the first automatic telephone
exchange at Nanking, the Chinese
capital.
When business conditions were
bad last summer, he found himself
out of a job but was quickly placed
on the staff of the China Electric
Co. He is the supplier and installer
for seven automatic telephone of
fices in the international settle
ment in Shanghai.
Some of the experiences of his
fellow countrymen who were in
the university with hi mare related

Yin Min Lin has been teaching
chemistry since returning to his
native land, now being an instruc
tor at Northwestern university in
Shansi province. He was an ex
ceptional student at chemistry
while in the university, and was
elected to Sigma X.
Charles T. Lee has a responsible
position in the accounting depart
ment of a coal mining corporation
in Honan province. He was a stu
dent in the college of business ad
ministration at the university.
Dr. Leland is not certain what
has become of K. Kwei Chen,
whose poetry while at the Uni
versity of Nebraska attracted
much attention. He taught at the
university at Pelplng for a time
but Doctor Leland believes that he
is now studying in Germany.

themselves the "Chinese bandits"
and named Doctor Leland their
"chief." That was when roving
Chinese bandits were attracting
much attention.
Altho the boys have been play,
lng interesting roles in the de
velopment of China, It is a dis
couraging picture that Lian Yu
paints of his country.
"Now China is suffering from
the atrocious aggression of Japan."
he writes. "Justice and humanity
and peace are fooling our people.
In Mudkcn, the Chinese author
ities thought Japan, as a civilized
nation would never attack the
civilians if the Chinese army re
frained from desisting. However,
facts prove Just the opposit.
Murder Inhabitants.
"Whenever Japanese marines
occupy a Chinese town, they
search every house and murder all .
those who seem to be students or
officials. As soon as they get thru
with one town, they start to search
the next one. There is apparently
no limit for them.
"The way they start trouble Is
to have their armed 'ronins' (a
Japanese word meanings fellowa
without definite Jobs) set fire to
Chinese public buildings or fac
tories or attack the police station,
always in the night. If the Chinese
offer no resistance, they may be
temporarily satisfied with a few
victims among the Chinese popul
ace." He writes that the trouble la '
Shanghai started in the same
manner. "First a group of Japa
nese ronins' set fire to a Chinese
weaving factory which is regarded
by Japanese as their keen compet
itor in business. Then the JapaJ
nese consul sent an ultimatum to
the Chinese mayor with five de-
mands which it is impossible to
imagine any nation in this world .
could accept.
"The Japanese thot that the
Chinese mayor never would accept
all of their demands and that they
could then attack China on that
excuse.
Seek Excuse to Attack.
"Losing this chance, they made
another one right afterwards. At
11:30 that night, the mayor and
police headquarters received a
letter from the Japanese consul
and naval commander demanding
the withdrawal of Chinese troops
from Chinese territory so that
Japanese marines could occupy it
Naturally an answer on this could
not have been given before the
next morning. Nevertheless, Jap
anese marines marched out at
12:30 that night with six war
tanks and attacked the north sta
tion where 200 Chinese aoldiers
were stationed.
"Next morning Japanese air
planes began bombing the Chanel
territory, setting fire to many
private buildings In that section.
Then more marines, more troops,
more airplanes, and more war
ships came from Japan. There has
been fire every day In Chapel for
the last twelve days. When I am
writing this letter, I can hear
clearly the firing of thelr15-inch
field guns."
The letter criticizes the use by"
Japan of portions of the Interna
tional settlement as a base of op
erations. The Chinese youth also
sent copies of the American news
paper at Shanghai at about the
time the attack of the Japanese
opened. Its editorials vigorously
condemned the Japanese move and
included a number of petitions
from citizens urging a cessation of
such hostilities.

pointed by Delta Sigma Rho to in
vestigate the feasibility of intra
mural debate. The Daily Ne
braskan assisted the committee by
sounding out student sentiment on
the proposed project.
The letter proposed that the
question for debate should be one
of campus interest; of concern to
the student bedy as a whole. All
university students who have not
competed on the varsity debate
team, will be eligible to partici
pate. Two Member Teams.
Teams will consist of two mem
bers. Each bouse will be asked to
take both the alfirmatime and the
negative side of the question
which can be done by having two
teams, an affirmative and a nega
tive, or by having one team which
will debate both sides.
The tournament will be a round
robin affair, with each house meet- '
lng every other house one time, tbe
winner being the one with tbe
highest percentage. The debates
will be held in the chapter houses.
Each speaker will be given eight
minutes in main speech and four
minutes in rebuttal, giving each
side twenty-four minutes, and thus
making the debate come to a close
in less than an hour.
Each debate will be Judged by
three competent and impartial..
Judges who have had debating ex
perience. A unanimous vote of all
the Judges or a vote of two Judges
for one side will constitute a win.
Organizations in favor of the
plan were requested to mall the
ballot which is attached to the
letter to Walter G. Huber, 501 So.
