Oury Gets Orders Tuesday
From Seventh Corps
Area Head.
LACK OF APPROPRIATIONS
Congressional Inaction Is
Cause of Curtailing
Summer Plans.
Suspension of all R. O. T. C. mil
itary camps in the seventh corps
area until after congressional ac
tion on the pending army appro
priations bill was ordered Tuesday
by Col. J. O. Steger, adjutant gen
oral of the Seventh corps area,
rationed in Omaha.
A telegram from Omaha was re
ceived Tuesday at the military de
partment setting forth this order'.
The order was made by the war
department in Washington. Su
spension of R. O. T. C. campu all
over the country has been ordered
until congress takes action on the
appropriations bill.
The reason for the action taken
liv the war department, according
to Col. W. H. Oury, head of the
department of military science, is
that camp periods will extend into
the next fiscal year, although
starting in the present one. Con
sequently, the camps must be post
poned until necessary appropria
tions for the coming year have
been made.
Suspension of ft. O. T. C. camps
has been ordered all over the
iimnlry." Colonel Ouiy stated. "If
congress takes action soon and if
the turn of legislation Is favorable,
Hie ramps undoubtedly will be re
stored this summer."
Orders Quoted.
The order received from Colonel
Steger read as follows: "Under in
fractions just received from the
war department, the conduct of
R. O. T. C. camps in this corps
area is hereby suspended until
further orders." No such camps will
be conducted until after congress
has acted upon the pending army
appropriation bill. All orders
heretofore issued from this hcad

GIVEN AT VESPERS
Industrial Staff Portrays
Conditions Under Which
Factory Girls Work.
A clever play written by the
members of the Industrial staff of
the Y. W. C. A. was the feature of
Vespers Tuesday afternoon. The

was to show the undesirable condi
tions in which girls are forced to
work in order to support them
selves and sometimes their fam
ilies. The epilogue of the play
gave the girls an idea as to how
they could help to remedy the sit
uation by purchasing hosiery
which is on the "white list."
The members of the staff who
appeared in the play were Alma
Holbein, E. Bash Perkins. Louise
Wallace, Kloi?.a Padder, Mary Cos

An innovation in tho field of
dramatics wil be introduced here
next fall in the form of an experi
mental theater, according to Miss
H. Alice Howell, director of the
University Players, and associate
professor of dramatics and elocu

The new experiment embodies
several features that have not
heretofore been available in the
department. The new feature is
designed to aid dramatic students
in all phases of the stage. It is
the plan at the present time to
present many original and com
paratively unknown plays in the,
new studio. Many of these plays,
while they would be of no great
interest to the general public, are
of value to students.
Thursday evening the first
group of plays will be presented
in the studio theater. At the
formal opening, four original plays
will be enacted. Two of the plays
to be presented Thursday are the
work of E. P. Conkle, who is study
