Dr. Oldfather is the author of two books, "The Greek Literary Papyri from Greco-Roman Egypt" and a translation of "The Dior dorua of Sicily." He accepted a full professorship In ancient history at Nebraska in 1928, became a member of the classics department in 1029, and Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences in 1022. j gW-W-,"-M4W-W"WW- f '?jg I 'P l ' X f : 1 W I v J Courtesy of Lincoln Journal. ture and keen mind, mouth whose corners show understanding, square chin lacking nothing in de termination . . . Charles Henry Oldfather, Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences. Leaning back in his desk chair in room 112 of Social Sciences last Friday morning. Dean Oldfather amused his chin, so to speak, on a good looking necktie of light cream web-rabric speckled with tan and talked of his college, Arts and Sciences. "My past experience in teaching has been at small colleges whose purpose was to give a broad cul tural education, which in turn is nn education for citizenship. This contact with education, so moti vated, has made me feel strongly that an Arts College should aim at education for citizenship. This conviction is in line with the belief that the University and especially Its largest college is at the tip of a system of state-supported educa tion. And the defense for its ex istence is the theory that a liberal education of the populace is essen tial to the preservation of demo cratic institutions. "The College of Arts and Sciences, then, is not interested in professional men or technicians, as such, but in the molding of citizens who will have an understanding of the world as it is and an apprecia tion of what the past and present have to offer. In short, it is the purpose of this college to turn out intelligent and useful members of society." Dr. Oldfather went on to say that he tries to keep in mind that he Is a dean of an undergraduate college and that his main concern is shaping the whole undergradu ate curriculum to meet the needs of the average student. This is a job he really enjoys. He remem bered back a decade or so and found that he had always been a part of undergraduate life. His own was packed full of athletics, activity and interest. He served for three years as a chairman of a student athletic committee that 'ran the show without aid from a financial secretary,' and he has been connected with several fac ulty committees on athletics since then. Incidentally, he was more than an average athlete himself, win ning the Indiana intercollegiate doubles championship in tennis for three years and the singles title for one. In 1908 he won the North Da kota singles tourney. The Dean has. however, turned from tennis to golf, during the last two years and according to his statement he keeps in the low eighties with dif ficulty. His record is 11 pars and a birdy in eighteen holes, with sev eral bad holes figuring in to spoil the final score. A few of the high lights of Dean Oldfather's life were obtained from Who's Who and the Nebraska Alumnus. He was born in Tabriz, Fersia in 1S&7 and was brought to this country by his parents In 1890. He attended Hanover College, Ind., pledging Phi Delta Theta, and was graduated in due time. During the past year he was granted an L.L.D. from this same school. Receiving his D.D. from the McCormick Theological Seminary in 1911, Dr. Oldfather went abroad. He spent a year At Munich In Germany and two years studying and teaching at the Syrian Protestant College at Beriut, Syria. On returning to the U. S. In 1914 he served as professor of the clas sics at his alma mater for two years. In 1916 he began a ten year term as professor of ancient his tory and Greek at Wabash College in Crawfordsville, Indiana. During this period he was affiliated with the Indiana Public Library Com mittee, president of the Indiana Library Trustees Association, member of the American History and Thilology Association, and a FOOTWEAR BECOMES IMPORTANT THIS YEAR For the past couple of years, hosiery and shoes have been re signed to oblivion with the formal outfit, but not to this year! With the unusual but delightfully re vealing split skirt and the quaint uneven hemlines, they play a very important role in Milady's formal warcirooe. Of course, the only thing that is duly acknowledged as exactly right for milady's feet is scandals the more cob-webby and im practical they are, the more fash lonable. And with this comes the scandalous announcement of low heels. Not boulevard heels, not Cuban heels, but low, one-inch heels, my dear! They really are comiortartie Did then, of course are especially helpful to the ample-sized girl who wishes to look up to her escort rather than at him. The main question of the hour among smart coeds is what to wear with the new split skirts, Evening slippers are more exciting than ever with the advent of this new creation. Open-toe sandals with chic broad bands are very good in kid. Pumps, completely cut out at the sides with contrast ing bands criss-crossing on the toe are also the thing in particular worn with picture dresses are the hidden-toe sandals to peep from unaer voluminous skirts. Other formal slippers shown this season are ones with a tiny braided T-strap and delicate silver kid piping. The newest design in strap slippers is to hae the strap en circle the ankle very high. Gold and Silver Lead. Gold and silver again lead the shades of formal slippers this year, while more and satin lead the materials for footwear prob ably becuse they are the only shades for tinting. One store is showing jewelled, Grecian sandals which are really gems. Imbedded in the toe straps are stones of many colors-very different and exotic looking (incidentally they have low heels, you comfort-loving coeds). Now for the hosiery Sheer! Sheer! Sheer! As was mentioned before split skirts as well as san dals can be relentlessly revealing. For blues formula, neutral or beige are advised while pastel shades call for beige. The peren nially popular white requires beige or skin tones. In all cases, very light hosiery may be selected to match the skin tones as nearly as possible. Choose sandal-foot stockings for evenin, clocked stockings only if your ankles are good, black hose only when you are really up to It with every detail of your black costume perfect, and with a pair of coquettish legs for an excuse. And if you're slim enough for a garterless girdle, buy some of the "short hose" for evening. Buying hose for formal wear is a lesson in luxury. These extra-sheer stock ings are known, technically, as three-thread or two-thread stock ing. Your sole purpose in buying them should be for beauty and luxury of appearance. Wear the most luxurious, the most expensive sheer, sheer stockings you can af ford for evening. Am JST f r J lill Ciiurtei'v of Tnwnn1a. lit toft Miss Margaret Higgins.

NEW FORMAL LINGERIE INCLUDES ALL TYPES Formal lingerie has given way to all types of foundation garments. The full length garment which is especially long is Ideal under the long, closefitting waist line. They accentuate especially the small, long waistlines which are very much in vogue this year. Those who do not favor this type of gar ment may select semigirdles (two way stretch). And for those lithe, yoiing moderns who do not approve either type, stylists present vas sarettes, so closefitting and smooth that not one wee pucker shows. One of the best foundation gar ments to wear tinder formals is the slim titting girdle pantie. They take care of two of the biggest worles of formal wear.
