Those who honestly are trying to earn grades are dctri- j jn'ented bv cheating." I "If they get mad," he contin- ; ued, "and let it be known, then j only, will the trend go upward to make the University a charac- ter building process." j More Rustlers j At present, says Howard, it looks like what Robert Raun at . the discussion pointed out "there are more cattle rustlers j than cattle ranchers." Howard reminded students that this was a good chance for them tc help formulate the pol- j icy of the University but they j 'certainly failed to take advan- lage." He concluded by saying j that students should "think twice ! etter this before bickering on something that they have not had u part in formulating." Speaking about the panel dis- I cushion. Dean Oldfather said: ''The students must not be very excited about the matter judging from the attendance." "What bothered me," contin ued the dean, "was that we didn't '. discuss the important point ; whether the exam period should ; he shorter or left as is." Dean I Oldfather said that was what he really expected to be discussed, i "I was dismayed by the lack of interest, he concluded. No Conclusions According to Dean Thompson the panel was interesting, and he "enjoyed it very much." I uon't think we reached any conclu sions," he continued, "but I think we all generally agreed that some testing program is needed, and that cheating is not to be toler ated. " Offering an explanation for the email attendance, Dean Thomp son said that students he had talked to believed that it was set tled beforehand by the question sire that was handed out "Some good points were brought into the open." he con cluded. J. L. Seller, faculty member on the discussion, said he thought that from the attendance at the meeting it was a safe conclusion to draw that students are not very interested in the problem. Surprised He said he was surprised "to find that students believe that there is so much cheating in ex aminations. One practical sugges tion, he thought that was offered at the meeting, was that when a student knows there is cheating In the class to inform the in structor without giving names. In the event the student dries not wish to go to the instructor, fie could go to the department head. "However," he continued," there is no prospect of improv ing the situation unless the stu dents show interest themselves." Students must realize." he pointed out, "that their degrees are debased by dishonesty and n is the reputation of the tchonl." Sellers expressed a belief that the present period for examina tion is the most practical and Ticket Sales End Friday For Annual Jr.-Sr. Prom Tomorrow is the day ... it will be the last chance for you to buy tickets to the Junior-Senior Prom, the last day to try your luck at choosing the 19E0 Corn- I huskcr Beauty Queens . .

Directing the unusually large cast is Max Whittaker while technical details of properties and other stage work have been planned by William Ellis. Fourth Week of Rehearsals Winding up the fourth week of rehearsals, the cast is planning special dress rehearsals for this weekend as final preparation for the play. During this week, the stage crew has been holding technical rehearsals. A large part of the action will revolve about three vaudeville actors, George, May and Jerry who will be characterized by Abe Katz, Lois Nelson and Mich ael Shanahan respectively. Action The audience first sees them sitting in their hotel rooms, prac tically broke, trying to figure out a way to make a living. Sud denly they hit upon the idea of going to Hollywood.

Inspired Action begins when three fe males come upon the scene. They are Susan Walker, an in spired homespun girl, who ac cording to her mother, Mrs. Walker, previously has no acting ability at all. Mrs. Cbasen, Mr. Glogauer's private secretary adds somewhat to the strange antics and confusion of the Glogauer studios. Everything is terribly mixed up: no one knows where anyone I or anything is, especially Law rence ail, a playwright that seems to get lost in the shut fie.

This is the first time in recent years that the semi-formal event has been held in the Union ballroom. "Semi-Formal" "Many students have inquired." said Betty Green, council mem ber, "as to what is meant by the term 'semi-formal.'

Additional trouble arises when a member of the crew of the United Confederation bombing plane gets drunk in a Mexas town and is captured and convicted of murder by Mexas authorities.

Jim Stoddard believed that the tendency to cheat in exams de velops in the grade schools, be cause students are either slower than the rest of the class or dis interested in school. "I don': think you can change everyone's ideas when they enter Univer sity," he said.
