RUM
Organization to Meet at
Temple Cafeteria
March 8.
The Sino-Japanese crisis will be
discussed by the next student
forum speaker, Russell Durgin,
during the noon hour in the Tem
ple cafeteria, March 8. He intends
to offer the subject from the view
point of American concern.
The experiences gained by Dur
gin in student 'activities as an
undergraduate at Dartmouth col
lege have played an important part
in his career, according to infor
mation received. For the past
seven years he has worked among
the students in colleges and uni
versities of Japan as a staff mem
ber of the international committee
of the Y. M. C. A., and attributes
much of his success in organizing
student groups to what he learned
while on the Dartmouth campus.
His work of creating fellowship
among the Christian Japanese and
Chinese students headquartered
him in Tokyo, Manchuria. It is
here and in neighboring vicinities
where he has organized student
Christian associations in twenty
five of the fifty-five colleges and
universities. v
Japanese Recognize Durgin.
Mr. Durgin has been recognized
by Japanese authorities several
times. He was appointed, several
years ago, honorary secretary of
Tokyo City Y. M. C. A. The fact
that he was asked by the Japanese
to be the honorary advisor to the
Japanese Oljmpic swimming team
last year ia sufficient evidence of
the esteem in which he is held.
Incidentally the team, which won
all events but one and placed in
that, trained in the pool of the
Y. M. C. A. of which Durgin is
the secretary. When Colonel Lind
bergh and his wife visited Japan
the mayor of Tokyo asked Durgin
to serve on the welcoming com
mittee of the city.
Speaker Active in "Y."
Durgin has played an important
part in activities of the student
Y. M. C. A. and the student volun
teer movement ever since he first
entered Dartmouth in 1911. He
was the campus leader of the v-

Lille Talbot Passes
At College
A few yea is ago a row of foot
lights scored a technical knockout
over a solitary study lamp. At the
time a few half interested specta
tors protested an unjust decision
and predicted an early downfall
for the victor. But they were un
aware that the brief but exciting
pre-college stage experience of the
youthful referee far outpointed
anything in his mind that the
higher education had to offer.
Thus Lyle Talbot, after completing
a few months work in the Univer
sity of Nebraska passed up his col
lege education for a stage career
from which he has climbed to be
a promising new actor in Holly
wood. A current issue of a popular
movie magazine devotes a com
plete page to Talbot anu icveals
the fact that "born in Pittsburgh,
he moved to a small town (Rush
villei in Nebraska, and later
moved to Omaha. He graduated
from an Omaha high school and
immediately joined a small stock

veteran stage folk. Later at his
grandmother's urging he attended
Nebraska university. But Talbot's
first taste of the stage proved too
strong and he left the Nebraska
campus to travel as a hypnotist's
assistant.
He soon graduated to tent shows

three years was "that handsome
young juvenile who knocked them
right out of their seats." This was
the time that Talbot played leads

He is well remembered by many
theater-goers here.
After leaving Lincoln, Talbot

Fact That U. S. Should
Develop Resources.
E. F. Schramm, professor of ge

Lincoln Engineers Club following
a dinner given by the organization
at the state capitol cafe. Professor
Schramm's talk stressed the fact
that the United States should de

untouched mineral deposits.
Their development would relieve
the necessity of their being import
ed from other countries, Professor
Schramm pointed out. Asbestos
was mentioned as one of the prod

this country, but is imported in
large quantities.
