Dale Wolf To Head Next
Year's Executive Board
BY RANDALL PRATT.
Dale Wolf is the new president
of the executive board. Flection
of officer Tuesday night finished
up the tiiii-iMss foi the year. Wolf
is a mtr.Uv of Farm House and
recently wf,s initiated into Corn
Cobs.
The ag exec hoard holds much
the same position on the ag cam
pus as the Student Council since
one of its pin poses is to function
for the ag college as does the Stu
dent Counc.l for the university
with particular reference to cam
7ns activities and social functions
without usurping the authority of
present organizations.
Other officers include secret at y.
Cwen Row; vice president, Poh
Oswald; treasurer, Kay Huston.
One of the main accomplish
ments of the board last year was
the work done on obtaining the
Thursday, May 14, 1942
one to play for a dance given by
the N club. His music is hot - in
an Individual style - and Johnny
Morris, one of the members of
the ba:,d, is the composer of the
former song bit, "Knock, Knock."
He is also considered one of the
best drummers of the day.
Tho it conies iust when students
arc busy studying for final ex
ams, the dance, we are assured,
is definitely worth taking two or ;
three hours out to attend. And it !
is the last party of the year the
last chance for seniors and men '
who are going to the army to go
to a univeisity party while they're j
slill m school.

At the present time there is no

Famed French
Movie Booked
Here Tonight
A story of provincial France,
and the only foreign language film
to be shown on the campus this
year, "Harvest" will be presented
tonight at 8 o'clock in the Union
ballroom. Tickets are on sale at
the door for 28 cents.
"Best moving picture in any
language of 1938," this French
movie is directed and produced by
Marcel Pagnol, French playwright
i of note. Music is ananged by Ar
thurs Honegger, who arranged the
musical score of the famous "May-erling-'
and "Pygmalion."
Taken from the novel, "Regain"
by Jean Ciono, "Harvest" is al
most a folk tale, telling of the
struggles of a provincial farmer
to make the most of life with the
earth acting nearly humanly
against him. Fernandel, the fa
mous French comedian, acts the
role of a knife grinder who brings
to the farmer a woman to help
him in his toil.
The movie is presented thru the
co-operation of the department of
modern languages and the Student
Union. Lucile Thomas is chair
man of the committee.

Universities are doing this by
accellerating programs, be writes,
by accepting the obligation of pro

deferred thru co-operation of the
government, by broadening curri
eular offerings, and by placing a
greatlv augmented emphasis on
physical and health education.

Further adjustment is made pos
sible by government extension of
its own facilities and inaugurating
