It soci that the intramural

office, has built up IntereHt hlRher
than the proverbial kite, Every fan
who belongs to a fraternity in
the running, looks first for the
intramural summaries and then
at. the major sports, ami that's a
fart.
Already on iport h been
completed, another will b over
tonight, and a third started this
week. Football came to an end
several weeks ago as Sigma Nu
topped the Sig Ep. The finals
of water polo, one of the tough
est sports In the realm, will be
played tonight between the Slg
Alph's and the Sigma Nu's.
Volley ball Is in Its early stages.
The exculpation for the lack of
publicity is juvenile, but true. The
water polo games are played, as
are volley ball ami basketball ami
the poor freshle who is responsi
blc for compounding- the disserta
tions on the sports, sometimes
cannot afford to desert his Caesar
or math long- enough to cover and
then write them all in one night.
With good intentions to write the
story the next day, the reporter
comes to the office and starts to
write. Then some superior reporter
tells him it is old news and he
quits. The above is explanation
one.
Explanation two Includes the
final completion of the story. It
then goes to the Journal, where
this sheet is printed. The sports
page is made up nt approximately
2 a. m, in the morning and the
news editor responsible thinks only
of that soft and luclous feather
i bed at home. With this in mind,
type is tossed into the forms and
it. seems to be the fate of intra
mural stories just not to make
the grade in that last minute
flurry.
Caging is underway and the
Husker court Mally looks profes
sional. The cagcrs are decked out
in little red riding hood hues.
With specially designed panties
and shirts made for durability not
beauty. Along with these drill uni
forms the bask-ol-lites give a cer
tain environment around the coli
seum that makes one think the
Huskers mean business this year.
A full staff of cage coaches in
cluding W. H. Browne, Adolph

and Wilbur Knight tutor the
aspirants.
By means of a central power
unit carried on the carriage of the

DR. SHUSTERMAN
LAUDS PROPHETS
FOR MORAL ORDER
(Continued from rage 1.)
Israel who, thru their writings In
the old Testament, laid a founda
tion for the building of a moral,
social order. Paraphrasing a line
from the film, "F.mile Zola," he
said, "Israel has been a moment
in the conscience of each era of
mankind."
"Why," he asked, "have the
Hittltes, the Babylonians, the Cale
donlans, the Persians and the
Greeks become only memories,
while tiny Israel alone has sur
vived to become one of the most
enigmatic facts of human his
tory?"' Israel lived because It pro
duced great prophets. While other
nations passed from periods of
growth and maturity to decay and
extinction, Israel produced pre
phets who brought about a moral
restoration and rejuvenation of the
people and thus were able to sur
vlve many periods of decline and
seeming disintegration.
Preferring to deal with the
psychological rather than the
metaphysical aspects of prophecy,
Shusterman described the main
tvpea of prophets and their
methods of influencing the race.
"The early propheis characterized
by Moses and Samuel were purely
mechanical. They thought of God
as external to man and acted
merely at Instruments of the state
in conveying to the people what
had been revealed to them as the
word of God.
Spokesmen of Truth.
"The later prophets were not ln
struments of the state but spokes
men of the truth aa they saw It.
They were advocate! of self denial
and sounded the first moral note
Into Jewish prophecy. In this
group were both false prophets
and true prophet. The former
were opportunists or "success
prophets." Their philosophies were
one-aided, for they told the kings
what they wished to know regard
less of moral Implications.
"The true prophets, on the other
hand, preached the doctrine that
'God will bring destruction not only
on our enemies but also on us for
our Immorality and dishonesty.
They advocated that the Israelites
foraake the clvlllxed life of Pale
stine and return to the simpler,
pastoral type of existence. The
prophecies of Amos, Isaiah, and
Jeremiah made Immense moral
contributions to human life.
Sacha Guitry, French Star,
Leads Life of Sensations
(Continued from Page 1.)
There the great French actor put
his son on the stage almost as
soon as he could talk. Racha's rise
was not meteoric. He attended 12
schools and was considered back
ward in all of them. "At his last
school, the master wanted to ex
pel him, but could not because the
17 year old bov had not been at
home or at school for five years."
A few hours before his first Im
portant part in a play (one pro
duced by his father) Sacha became
interested In reading a new play
and let the time slip by. His cos
tume required time to be put on;
but the time was gone. Losing his
wig, he rushed onto the stage out
of breath, in half costume and with
his helmet dropping down over
his eyes and ears, just In time to
be greeted by Helen, "Here comes
my beautiful Paris." Actors, au
dience and all burst Into laughter,
His father was furious and a quar
rel followed.
Laughed Off Stages.
Sacha then took his own separate
way, leaving his father. Overanxi
ous to please he failed miserably
and was laughed off the Parisian
and continental stages. He coun
tered with a stage hit when he
was 20 and slowly climbed up the
rungs of success. He married the
famous actress Yvonne Printemps
and with her as his leading lady
he played triumphantly between
1919 and 1932. Then came the di-
vorce. At present Sacha's leading
lady, who does not play In "Pas
teur," Is Jacquilina Delubac. his
"lovely, dark haired" third wife.
In 1918 his 13 year quarrel with
his father was patched up and at
last he believed he had found an
actor capable of incarnating such
a character as Pasteur his father.
The Idea of writing the play hafl
been haunting him for two years
and when It was at last possible
he sat down and wrote It. an act
a day. In five days. It is this play,
which was a great success with
his father in the ttile role, that
Sacha Guitry Is sending to Amer
ica In film form.
Blum Praises Ability.
About the great actor-producer-playwrlght
Leon Blum says In the
Theater Arts Monthly: "Nothing
contralns him. But his audacity is
tranquil, and never admits of chal
lenge. He has aplomb, but not In
solence. He Is never frightened,
never halted by the subject which
he broaches, by the types he per
cleves, by the words that come
spontaneously to his mind... and
it Is thanks to this unconsciousness
of difficulty or danger that his
freedom Is never affected or cyn
ical. Nothing is rarer than such a
gift, not only In a playwright, but
in any artist. . .He has gone as far
a It Is possible to go, because he
is a man who follows his subject
just as far as it chooses to carry
him."
Fifty-two year old world fa
mous Sacha Guitry, writer, pro
ducer and actor la the man who
takes the part of Pasteur In the
film which he wrote and which he
produced. It Is this picture that
the French department Is sponsor
ing Deo. 11 at the Varsity theater.
The picture contains subtitles In
English to help the beginning
French student and the person
who does not speak French. '.
Johnston Snipes Scoops
With Doomed Squad Story
(Continued from Page 1.)
barracks where 150 doomed Chi
nese soldiers were holding out.
Covering retreat of the Chinese
from that area, they Had been
trapped In the warehouse practic
ally In the British defense sector
on Chapel border.
Curfew at Ten-Thirty.
"We have really not been in any
grave danger at any time," Snipes
wrote his fraternity brothers Oct
31, via China Clipper, "because
we always stay Inside when any
Chinese planes fly in to bomb the
Japanese warships In the Whnng-
poo. We don't trust the Japanese
any more than the Chinese, tbo, ns
both arc rotten marksmen."
He told of curfew ringing nt
10:30 every night as a signal for
rooftop and garden cabarets to
close down, of watching air raids
and cannonading from the glass
windowed walls of the Park hotel
bar, and standing on the verandah
of the Country club to see Japa
nese fliers dive down on Nantao
and drop their load of "eggs."
Escape from Death.
Later letters relate the sUndy
advance of the Japanese troc ps,
firing upon British. Tommies
guarding the settlement, the blast
ing of the Catbav hotel by stray
shells, the fall of Nantno, Describ
ing the fall of Nantao, Snipes tolls
of careening thru cobblestoned
streets Into the danger zone, of
following a Twentieth Century
Kox newsreel man down backnl
leys past crowds of beggars and
refugees, thru a hole ploughed in
a brick wall. He saw the fighting
from the sidelines, behind a sand
bag; barricade. It was when he was
climbing to the top of a watet
tower to join other reporters there
that machine gun fire was turned
on the tower and his newshawk
friend killed.
Elsewhere in his letters. Snipes
recounts a 36 hour stretch at the
cable desk, a night spent in jail
for violating the curfew laws, and
the meeting of such journalistic
celebrities as Knickerbocker and
Collier's Jim Marshall.
America Too Often Duped.
"I read with cynical amusement
that Japanese and Russian troops
have clashed on the Manchoukuan
border and that Italy has recalled
her ambassador at Paris," Snipes
concludes a letter to his fraternity
brothers in Lincoln. "It appears
that the whole world has gone
beserk.
'If it is within the power of any
of you to do just a little to keep
our country out of war which will
bring us neither glory nor profit,
for all that is precious to you, do
It. America has been the goat In
this sort of scrap too ofter.."
University Mat Tourney Set
for 4 0'Clock in
Coliseum.
Novice wrestlers will be given a
chance to show their skill this Fri
day at p. m. on the subcoliseum
floor, scene of the all-university
mat tournnmeul. Already more
than 3S grapplers have decided to
take part in the show, and, accord
ing to Coach Jerry Adams, there
is still time for more men to en
ter. Famed as a Golden Gloves 'box
ing champ, Charlie Miegel re
turns to defend laurels lie won at
last season's all-school wrestling
tourney. Miegel won a gold medal
in the lightweight division by edg
ing out his crony, Leland Clare,
who will nlso be back in harness
this Friday.
Ned Anderson Returns.
Ned Anderson, runiierup last
year in the lt(.r pound division, is
well prepared to meet all competi
tion, of which there will be plenty.
Anderson is making a strong bM
for the ItiS pound berth on the var
sity team which has been vacated
by Don "Flash" Flasnick, who
completed his competition last
spring and is now in the pro ranks.
Gold medals will be given to
winners and silver awards to run
