TIIUKSDAY, AIMHL 23, 1936. Trie nuiv v irnif a clt a v i SEEN ON THE CAMPUS. There may be parties and par ties but never one like the one LaVerne Luedlke attended. This handsome Karpa Siff returned from Norfolk the other day and proudly displayed a gleaming: sher iffs badge which he declared he got at a party. The funny part of it is that the badge is the real thing and might be used to good advantage at some time or other. Although we have heard of no candv and cipars, it is rumored that Doris Weaver, Alpha Chi Omega, has the pin of Gavin Hum phrey, Pi K. A. The brothers are clamoring lor cigars, and just in cidentally, Mr. Humphrey will be leaving in June for the east where he has received a naval appoint ment. Here's hoping the Alpha Chi O s will be enjoying candy one of those da vs. The Theta's. erstwhile sorority songsters of the campus, were a wee bit heckled the other day at one of their rehearsals for Ivy day sing. While practising on the front porch several masculine passers-by would applaud wildly at the end of each song, honking horns, and vicing to see who could make the most noise. We wonder if the worried ex pression which Ross Martin has been wearing of late is due to Kos met show tickets or if there is any trouhle afoot about the current heart interest at the Delta Gamma house.

A third method of working for peace that the campaign is striv ing to make possible is thru educa tion and action in the various com munities, colleges, churches, young people's organizations, and the like, and by means of deputation teams to the neighboring commu nities. The campaign will attempt to obtain cooperation from others, since all groups and individuals who are in sympathy with the pur pose of the campaign are invited to cooperate with it to any point consistent with their aim. Because of the great threat of war today, organizers of the im mergency campaign feel that no time is to be lost. They believe that many people mutl lay down their present tasks and throw themselves into the great strug gle. FORUM PRESENTS I WARE.

"If they do this, the third open forum cannot fail to be success ful." "The forums have liecn arranged this year because of student de mand." stated Irving Hill, presi dent of the student council. "Their chief purpose is to serve as a means for students to present their views and arguments on vital Questions of the university. H is. therefore, up to the students I to show their interest m this major problem of the uni-ersity by listen ing without prejudice to the pre sentation of both sides of the is sue before Jorming an opinion." -T)w mc.,v' L 6. "I SO SING BROTHER SING! With the Interfraternity sing less than two weeks away, Greek organizations all over the campus are unlimbering their voices and preparing to let themselves go. Tuesday noon, the D. G.'s prac tised outdoors for the first time this year, to the edification of listening Kappa Delts and Sigma Kappas. Alpha Chi Omega traipses in a body to the school of music every afternoon at 5 to give the music faculty a treat. Their excuse is that their house is too far from the center of things to be a con venient meeting place. The A. T. O's and the Beta's have r hall id up several outdoor practices to their credit, but other fraternities still hesitate to let next-door houses hear the worst. Sigma Nu proudly announces the completion of iU second practice this week. New regulations for the sing are that each group shall give only one song instead of the customary two. Those old standbys, "I Love You Truly" and "Theta Lips" will appear again this year, while the Delta Gamma's try a change with "Delta Gamma Rose." Campus basses and tenors who were not asked to sing with the rest of the fraternity are forming "Grudge" clubs, whose chief end is to sit about the the front steps and serenade their more fortunate brothers during sing practice. And those selected, who failed to ap preciate the honor will spend the rest of the year paying fines for non-appearance at practices. MOTHERS club of Delta Gam ma will entertain members of the active chapter and their escorts at a buffet supper Sunday eve ning at the chapter house. Mrs. H. P. Lau is in charge of arrange ments for the affair and about 50 couples are expected to attend. CHI Phi auxiliary met for a des sert luncheon at the chapter house with fifteen present. Following luncheon election of next year's of ficers took place. New officers are Mrs. Herbert Potter, president: Mrs. Carl Dalling, vice-president and Mrs. Howard Hadley. secretary-treasurer. Hostesses for the afternoon were Mrs. Perry Jen nings. Mrs. Dalling, and Mrs. Mel sana Daniels. RECENTLY announced is the marriage of Miss Marian V. Lee of Pittsburgh, Pa to Glen E. Jeffer son of Lincoln which took place at Cumberland, Md., April 10. Mr. Jefferson is a graduate of the uni versity. CELEBRATIONS IN ALL NA TIONS HONOR WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE. (Continued from Page 1). a cringing weazened little crea ture." It is in England, however, ac cording to Miss Howell, that the Shakespearian festival reaches its height. The new Stratford theater, built soon after the old one burnt 10 years ago, is the scene of one play after another. The theater, designed by a brilliant woman architect, has an Elizabethan stage and modern pit. In the center of the balcony, the seats are so ar ranged that they can be removed and the box of the Prince of Wales substituted Actors Imported. Well known actors are im ported from London for the gala week, and streams of people tome from all parts of the world to be present. Americans are as active in this as the English, and the theater is built largely thru their donations. "An interesting feature that I found when I was in Sratford, three years ago," Miss Howell commented, "was the line in front of the theater where one could get the choicest and most inexpensive seats. One stood there anywhere from half an hour to an hour and a half, waiting in line. In London old soldiers sometimes entertain the persons in the line while they wait." Dramas Should be Seen. "But what we are trying to do with our festival in Nebraska." Hunter explained, "is to establish the same cultural precedent here that is observed all over Europe. Present day Shai.e.fjeanan study is confined in America almost en tirely to the classroom. Shake speare i definitely not a 'clonet dramatij.t'. While ' his plays are rich in cultural meaning and aie exceptionally veil suited to schol arly study, they are primarily dramas and to lie appreciated nhoulo ne seen and acted as well as read." 10,136 Attend Karma tit lay; idd Oly mpic Contribution! to Fund LAWRENCE.

CLEANERS J Tucker Stor Wf-trwr I Shanghai Professor Tells of Governments in Schools Of Germany, China. Dr. Victor Hanson, professor ol political science at the University of Shanghai, spoke In an Informal discussion Wednesday afternoon at the Baptist student house on the governments of China and Ger many and the university. "One of the most incredible sights in America is the automo biles lined up around school build ings." said Hanson. "The wealth over here after being there is re markable; people in America don't know what poverty is." The few millionaires who are in China live in an acme of luxury. At a party you see nothing less than expen sive automobiles and marvelous jewelry. Chinese Analyze Selves. The Chinese have analyzed themselves and found they have to fight Japan with more than their mouths. They have found that there are certain weaknesses in their people they would have to overcome. The New Life move ment has brought about a new spirit of patriotism on the part of all the people. "I feel that there has been a lot cf progress made by the movement which is par ticularly aimed at resurrection of the moral, physical and intellec tual qualities of the people." In speaking of the Chinese stu dents in the American universities Dr. Hanson said that the Chinese politicians are gathering about them highly trained men to act as their supporters. For this reason they send many students to the United States and other countries to school. These men are expected to help him while in the country in w hich they are studying. Difficulty May Be Remedied. China has been said to be be tween the "devil and the deep blue sea." Russia on one side, is ad vocating communism thru abund ant propaganda, and Japan on the other, is causing her great humil iation by her forceful grabs for territory. This, however, may be remedied if the movement is en tirely successful and if it doesn't take too long. KOSMET CHORUS SACRI FICES COMFORT FOR ART'S SAKE.

Thurston Phelps has a lot of fun running around on the stage as a good looking chorus member. The hat of George Markley comes off too easily. He leaned far back in the arms of one mem ber of the dancers and his hat hit a manly chest. This was not in cluded in the act, but George was nonchalant. Clayton Schwenk has a lot of fun working the spot. Last year at the final performance Bob Shellenberg shined a yellow and green spot on a certain cast mem ber singing a song.
