A man had dropped in at his
favorite beer tavern when he no
ticed a young man gulping down
glass after glass of beer as fast
as he could be served. He reached
out with his free hand for the
next glass while the first one
was still at his lips. The on-looker
watched in amazement, then
tapped the fellow on his shoulder.
"Hey," he asked anxiously, "Is
that any way to drink beer?"
"Sure is," answered the young
man with a grimace. "Can't do
it any other way since my acci
dent."
"What accident?"
"Brother," answered the old
fellow as he blanched at the mere
memory, "I onct had a beer
knocked over."
"What sort of part does Bill
have In the play?"
"A very emotional part. In
the last act, he has to refuse
a drink."

Time magazine reviewers com-
ment on "Carnival in

by saying, "It is as sly a farce
as any kind that has ever led a
U. S. censor board to make good
manners for innocent intentions."
The Commonweal says, "It is
a capably wrought, skillfully
played, well directed, hand
somely mounted, notably photo
graphed, and hilariously studded
farce. Frequently the pictorial
displays remind one of paint
ings, embracing with deft ton
ing the expansive fields and
picturesque quaintness of the
seventeenth century settings
that are reproduced most ac
curately." Tickets may be purchased at
the University YMCA or at the

formances.
Dance Cancelled

aid foreign students at the Uni
versity and displaced students in
other countries.
In conclusion, the nomination
letter read, "If we want one who
