Education Department Announces List o f Students W orking in Different

Schools Throughout the State— Term’s Credit Given for Work

A rendering o f Shakespeare’s Macbeth was given in Murkland audi­torium last night by the Shakespeare Players, a traveling dramatic group. The performance was sponsored by the Great Bay branch o f the Am eri­can Association o f University Women. The local branch’s share o f the pro­ceeds went to swell its contribution toward the fellowship fund o f the national association.

Apart from the fine acting o f the Players, a noticeable characteristic of the performance was the absence of scenery. Plain draperies were used to enclose the stage. Only such simple properties as tables and the like were used. Costumes were as nearly cor­rect as possible. The apparent object o f the Players was to employ the methods o f the old Elizabethan drama; the success o f the play depending solely upon the word-expression and gestures of the actors.

The cast included James Hendrick­son, Claire Bruce, John C. Hickey, Webster Patterson, Mary Glover, Stanley Cobley and Robert Greene. Several students took parts as “ extras” or were connected with the mechanics of the production. James Hendrickson and Claire Bruce, who head the Players, interpreted the roles

W OMEN’S CLUB SPONSORS“ PASSION P L A Y ” LECTURE

Mrs. Lois Lyman Patten o f Nashua, appearing under the auspices o f the Durham Women’s club, spoke at the Community house Wednesday eve­ning, April 1, on the Passion Play given at Oberammergau, Germany, last August. As is generally known the Passion Play has been given at ten- year intervals since 1634. Its origin was the outcome of a great plague which came upon that section at that time. During the process of the plague residents of the town gath­ered in a body and decided that if they were saved they would show their great appreciation by exemplifying in drama the last three years o f the life o f Christ.

The plague left the town untouched and every ten years since that date the play has been given, and has at­tained such wide recognition that many people from all over the world make a special effort to attend the performance. Only once has it been necessary to hold over the play and that was during the World War. It is expected that in 1934 the play will be given as a part o f the 300th anniver­sary of its creation.

Hot Chocolates are in style again

Over forty candidates are out for positions on the 1931 varsity baseball team. There are a few veterans present, around whom Coach Swasey aims, by selecting the most promis ing players from last year’s fresh­man team, to build an aggressive club. Moreover, it is possible that good material may be picked from those men who have reported for the first time for either the freshman or varsity team. For two weeks, the men have been practicing in the gym, and as soon as Brackett field dries, outdoor work will start. Unless bet­ter stickers can be found, the Wild cats will show a decided weakness in batting. No trouble, however, is ex­pected in placing a strong club on the field.

This year’ s schedule has been some­what changed. Boston college and Maine have been dropped. Their places are taken by Dartmouth, Springfield and Vermont. The Cata­mounts will meet the varsity for the first time after several years’ separa­tion in baseball. When the Wildcats face the Indians at Hanover, the game will end a two years’ severance. In 1929 Dartmouth took a 10 to 4 beating from New Hampshire. The Indians, however, always have an advantage over most teams by their barnstorming down South every year. Up to now, they have taken one g a m e fr o m the University o f Virginia, but have lost two to the Virginia military institute. Harvard, A r m y , and Brown are sure to be hard nuts to crack. As usual, the Bears appear twice on the list.

The first game is here with Colby on April 27. Those surviving the first cut, which is due about the end o f this week or the middle o f next week, will probably go under the final reduction just before the initial game.

Three veterans, Seaver, Dunlap, and Jablonowski form a dependable pitching staff. White, a form er New Hampton school star, and the out­standing pitcher in the central New Hampshire prep school league for several years, is making fast strides for a regular position.

For catchers, Mitchell, Lynch, Ca­sey, and Patenaude are ready for ser­vice. Although outfielders are scarce the few who are out for those posi­tions are capable of holding them down. Infielders are plentiful and promising, and that problem appears to be settled.

Following are the candidates for the various positions in which they have reported: pitchers, Mann, Staf­ford, Edgerly, Seaver, Dunlap, White, Jablonowski; catchers, Mitchell, Lynch, Casey, Sumner, Patenaude; first base, Trzuskoski, White, Dunnan, Buttrick; second base, Garneau, Chase, McKoan, Howell; third base, Dunford, Machon, Eustis; short stop, Lang, Wells, Gibbons; outfielders, Smith, E. Hanna, Hayes, Lisabeth, Lane, C. Hanna.

Following is the schedule for 1931: April 27, Colby at Durham; April 30, Harvard at Cambridge; May 2, Low­ell Textile at Durham; May 7, New­port Naval Training School at Dur­ham; May 9, Boston university at Durham; May 13, Arm y at West Point; May 14, Providence college at Providence; May 16, W orcester Tech. at Durham; May 22, Vermont at Burl­ington; May 23, Dartmouth at Han­over; May 26, Tufts at M edford; May 28, Clark at Durham; May 30, Spring­field at Durham; June 6, Connecticut at Storrs; June 13, Brown at Dur­ham; June 15, Brown at Providence.

The varsity debating teams have just traversed the forensic season without a blemish on their record. By winning every debate they have completed the most successful cam­paign in years.

The first debate of the season was with the University of Maine on Thursday evening, February 26. It was won by New Hampshire after a spirited contest broadcast over radio station WNAC. On March 3 both New Hampshire teams engaged Emerson school o f oratory in verbal dual and emerged victorious. On March 5 both New Hampshire delegations again went to battle, this time meet­ing the unbeaten Colby teams. Again the Durham verbal dualists won the argument. On March 12 the negative team engaged the Bowdoin affirmative. Bowdoin also acknowledged defeat to New Hampshire who, with a clean slate behind them, vigorously upheld their arguments. The negative traveled to Boston on March 14 where they exchanged ideas for the solution of unemployment with the New York university affirmatives in the W BZA studio. The decision for this contest was rendered by the radio audience; votes were cast in about a two to one ratio in favor o f New Hampshire. There was to have been a contest with Pittsburgh university last night, but the debate was canceled as it would interfere with the production of “ Macbeth” which was given in Murk­land hall.

By winning over every opponent in New England intercollegiate forensic conference, the New Hampshire de­baters have won the New England intercollegiate championship. Am ong the men representing New Hampshire in varsity debating this season were: William Stearns, ’33; Edward Hazel- tine, ’31; J. Robert Ayers, ’32; Fred­erick Vintinner, ’31; and J. Raymond Sawyer, ’31. Much credit for the successful season can be attributed to the coaching of Mr. Cortez and the cooperation o f Monroe Walker, ’31, manager.

Tau Kappa Alpha, honorary debat­ing society, will hold a meeting tom or­row night to consider those who, by participation in two varsity debates, are eligible for membership. The fo l­lowing are among those to be con-

AMOS ’N ’ AN DY PRODUCTION TO A P P E A R HERE SATURD AY

Internationally* famous yet practi­cally unknown! Sounds like a para­dox, but it applies to the kings of radio entertainment, Amos ’n’ Andy, appearing at the Franklin theatre Sat­urday in their first talking picture, “ Check and Double Check,” a Radio pictures production.

Motion picture players whose names are not nearly so well known as Amos ’n’ Andy, scarcely can go anywhere without being recognized, yet Amos ’n’ Andy rarely are recog­nized in their daily movements.

The reason for this is that they are known only as delineators o f negro types. When they remove their makeup they remove their identity. To preserve the illusion that they are what their radio audiences imagine them to be, no one ever sees them broadcast, not even their wives nor their manager.

Even in Chicago, where most of their broadcasting is done, they are known only to their immediate circle of friends. Amos ’n’ Andy are known to millions— as two voices— but Free­man Gosden and Charles Correll look pretty much like other young business men in a crowd.

In “ Check and Double Check” they emerge from their usual seclusion and provide the public with its first view of them. Featured with them in the picture are Sue Carol, Charles Mor­ton, Irene Rich, and a strong support­ing cast.

The world’s hottest jazz band, Duke Ellington’s Negro orchestra, fu r­nished the music for “ Check and Double Check.” Ellington says one of the reasons the production is so ex­pensively spectacular is because “ the boys is so hot they burns the notes right off the music . . . and the studio has to give ’em a new part after every p ’form ance!”

Varsity Trackmen Report to Sweet

Seniors Form Nucleus of This Year's Cinder Squad

Team Undefeated for Three Years in Dual Meets— Present Outlook

Indicates Better Season Than Last Year’s

The varsity track prospects loom up favorably with 75 candidates re­porting for the squad during the first week of the term. Of this number sixteen are lettermen, eleven o f whom are seniors. The nucleus o f this year’s team will be formed mainly around the members of the senior class who have made creditable show­ings in competition since their fresh­man year. These men have an ad­mirable record o f being undefeated in all but one o f the dual meets since entering college as freshmen four years ago; the only team defeating them being the Dartmouth freshman track team in 1928. The varsity track team has been undefeated in all dual meets since the first meet o f the 1928 season. Since then the Blue and White has rolled up a total o f eleven successive victories against the same competition as they will face this year. Another outstanding fact in this string o f victories is that in only one meet have they been headed a f­ter the first two events had been run off. On the whole this is a fine rec­ord and one that this year’ s squad is out to continue.

The team as seen from the first week o f practice seems to be quite well balanced in all events, although it is quite likely that there will be men doubling in some o f the races, as they did last year, and as is gen­erally the practice in the weight events since there are always one or two that are well tried and capable of gaining points in more than one event.

The track team suffers from lack of practice during the winter months since the University has no indoor track or cage in which the entire squad may be kept in training during the winter term. This year the team has been favored with good weather conditions, as the field was clear o f snow and was available for practice the first day of the spring term, which is not usually the case.

Coach Paul Sweet believes that the outlook at present is for a team even better than that o f last year, which had a fine season and won all dual meets. Coach “ A l” Miller is acting as assistant coach o f both varsity and freshman track this season. J. Raymond Sawyer is varsity manager, and Lawrence Barker is manager of the freshman team. Coach Sweet has stated that he expects five new rec­ords to be made by this year’s team.

The candidates for the various events that have reported for prac­tice and seem to be in line for po­sitions are as follow s:

Hurdles: Whitehouse, ’32, Thayer, ’32 and Sucke, ’31, all o f whom have taken many points between them in past contests. Sucke was a letter- man in 1929, but due to injuries was unable to compete last year.

100 yard dash: Burdett, ’31, Alh- gren, 31, Clark, ’ 33, Crosby, ’31, and Harrington, ’31, the last two having competed in this event last year.

Quarter mile: Harrington, ’31, Cros­by, ’31, Klein, ’33, Gilman, ’33, Jef­frey, ’33.

H alf mile: Richardson, ’31, captain of last year’s team, Lazure, ’31, Noyes, ’ 32, C. Ahlgren, ’33.

One mile: Richardson, ’31, Lazure, ’31, Noyes, ’32, and Blood, ’33.

Two mile: DeMoulpied, ’33, And- berg, ’33, Mackey, ’33, Moore, ’31, Little, ’32, and Ellsworth, ’ 32, Gar­land, ’33, O’Neil, ’33, Seymore, ’33, Metcalf, ’32, all form er members of the cross country team. The services o f Henry Hazen, a form er member of the class o f 1931, who graduated at

University Issues Revised Bulletin

Brief History of Growth and Standing Included

Several New Features Included in Copies Sent to All Seniors of

Approved High Schools in the State

A new bulletin o f the University has been issued during the last week by President Edward M. Lewis. The general plan o f the bulletin has been slightly altered from last year’s is ­sue and new scenes o f interest about the campus have been added. Along with these new campus views are scenes of various activities both ath­letic and scholastic.

One o f the outstanding additions over the other bulletins which can be found in the recent one is the follow ­ing passage which gives an excellent summary of the standing o f the Uni­versity in the present world o f edu­cation.

“ The institution has enjoyed rapid growth in recent years: its first class, that o f 1871, had ten members, all men; this year there is a total en­rollment o f 1595, o f whom 1117 are men and 478 women.

“ With this growth has come local and national recognition. The Uni­versity of New Hampshire is a mem­ber o f the New England Association o f Colleges and Secondary schools, the National Association o f State uni­versities, the Association o f Land Grant colleges and universities, and it is on the approved list o f the A s­sociation o f American universities. Its college o f Liberal Arts is a mem­ber o f the Association o f American colleges, and the woman graduates of that college are entitled to active membership in the American Associa­tion o f University Women. This status entitles its graduates to the same consideration and recognition throughout the world as is given to graduates o f any other institution of higher learning in the country.”

This bulletin is to be mailed to every senior in all approved high schools o f the state and will be sent to all others who desire a copy, ac­cording to a statement issued today by Duke Blewett, executive secretary o f the University, who is in charge of the issue.

The body of M arjorie B. Young, a member o f the sophomore class at this university, was1, found Sunday noon at a lonely spot near her home in Rochester, with a fatal bullet wound in her heart. A fter a brief examination the verdict o f suicide was pronounced by medical referee Dr. F. L. Keay. Financial worry is said to have been the cause o f her despon­dency although w orry over her schol­astic standing is said to have been a contributory cause.

Her body was found by two boys, Paul Vittum and Edgar Nadeau, who were searching the vicinity for ar­butus. Tlje story of the disaster was carried directly to the police who im­mediately began an investigation of the circumstances surrounding the case.

The weapon used was that of her father, Sidney Young, which had lain idle on a forgotten shelf for several years. No indication of her mood was noted by her fam ily as she left the house for the last time saying that she was going for a walk in or­der to rid herself o f a severe head­ache.

Miss Young was an extremely quiet and diligent student and the news of her untimely fate was received with many regrets by her fellow students.

PROFESSOR FOGG AW ARD ED FELLOW SHIP IN CHEMISTRY

Official announcement has been re­ceived that Professor H. C. Fogg has been awarded the J. T. Baker Chem­ical company research fellowship in analytical chemistry for the year 1931-1932. Professor Fogg will be on leave of absence from the University during this time and will continue re­search work at the University o f Michigan in collaboration with Profes­sor H. H. Willard. Professor F ogg held the position o f associate pro­fessor at this University and was acting head o f the department o f chemistry in the interim between the death of the late Charles James in December, 1928, and the appointment of Dr. Harold Iddles, present head of the department in September, 1929. During the present year Professor Fogg has completed his graduate courses and has been teaching in the department o f chemistry at the Uni­versity o f Michigan.

TO BE OR NOT TO BE

On this campus, as well as at many of the other universities and similar institutions in the east, there are many organizations and societies of a so-called honorary nature which seem to have little practical value to the student.

They hold their meetings at irregu­lar intervals and only a very few of the members attend or take active part in the organization. Some standard, either of a scholastic nature or of special achievement along certain lines, is set up as a basis of eligibility. The candidate achieving the standard, is bid, pledged, initiated, pays the fees, and then after attending a few meet­ings, retires as simply an inactive member.

He has paid his money and received some sort of certificate to hang in his room, and, with this, his connec­tions with the society become next to nothing.

Isn’t it possible and practical that either these groups reorganize them­selves into real up-and-going affairs, or else drop entirely out o f the pic­ture? It is useless for them to con­tinue as the “ dead ends” that they now are, and continue to feel that they are really offering and giving the student something that is of real value to him either now or in later life.

Surely, some incentive can be de­veloped that will make the organiza­tions of vital importance to the stu­dent’s college education. If such is not the case, activities of this nature should be removed from the path of a person who is spending four years of valuable time and money trying to obtain something that will be of use to him when he becomes a man of the world.

A call to co-operate in the state’s orchard-sanitation program was radioed to New Hampshire’s “ sum­mer” people and back-yard orchardists April 1 by C. O. Rawlings, extension horticulturist of the University, who spoke over W BZA. Co-operation re­quested was the destruction or care of all apple and seedling trees on estates and other land within 100 yards of commercial orchards. “ Neglected trees,” the speaker said, “ are the source of railroad worm and other insects that migrate and cause great losses in the commercial apple crop.”

“ Any legitimate industry producing $7,000,000 worth of products for New England is worth fighting for,” the horticulturist declared. “ It creates a potential buying power which at once commands the attention and support of every keen, forward-looking busi­ness man. It is the New England apple industry that produces this vast sum yearly.”

The apple worm was explained as a small insect which seriously threat­ened the New England apple expert market in 1930 and was even be­ginning to cause domestic buyers to lose confidence in New England fruit. To combat the worm and hold their markets, New Hampshire orchardists have adopted the most drastic and thorough sanitation program ever undertaken on a state-wide basis in the Granite state.

“ To effect satisfactory control we must secure the co-operation of prop­erty owners whose lands adjoin or­chards,” Mr. Rawlings said. “ All neglected and seedling trees within 100 yards of orchards should be well cared for, cut down, or grafted to resistant varieties. Picking up dropped apples is another control method often used to combat railroad worm. Spraying is recommended by some experiment stations, and should cover all trees and bushes adjacent to the orchard, as well as the orchard trees themselves.”

Yesterday Joe Horn of Laconia, manager of the Belknap County Farmers’ Exchange, spoke on “ Feed Costs in the Production of Milk and E ggs.” Mr. Horn was formerly county agricultural agent in Belknap County.

Three more talks are scheduled to be broadcast this month. On April 15, H. O. Stuart, assistant poultry husbandman, is to speak on “ Feeding Chicks and Layers.” Miss Elizabeth Ellis, extension nutritionist, is to talk April 22 on “ Something New— The Budget Garden.” The last talk of the month will be given April 29 by J. R. Hepler, assistant in vegetable garden­ing, on the subject “ How to Plant a Budget Garden.”

COLLECTION OF PAINTINGSON EXHIBIT AT LIBRARY

MU ALPHA OF CHI OMEGA HOLDS WINTER TERM DANCE

The local chapter of Chi Omega fraternity entertained forty guests at its annual winter term dinner dance held on March 14 from six-thirty to eleven-thirty p. m. There was a de­cided Hibernian flavor to the dinner and decorations in honor o f Saint Pat­rick’ s Day. Miss Irene Young was in charge of the dance. Mr. and Mrs. Huggins o f Dover, Mr. and Mrs. White, Mrs. Flanders, and Mrs. Ger­trude McClintock were chaperones. Several alumnae motored from Bos­ton to attend the dance.

The Library has on exhibition a collection of paintings of the various great masters. These pictures are loaned by the American Federation of Arts until April 17. They are photo­graphic reproductions of the originals in colors. The pictures are exhibited upstairs as well as in the rooms on the main floor.

Among the collections are several paintings by Jonas Lie, who has won much commendation in recent years. In Toil he has taken the scene at a railroad terminal, often considered ugly, and painted into it unusual beauty. Trout Stream by De Haven and Harp of the Winds by Martin are also outstanding. The exhibit is well worth the time and attention of everyone on campus.

Up in Bow, where the selectmen failed to provide funds for street lighting, says the M anchester Union, the townspeople carried lanterns and hung lambs on their doorposts last Friday night. The gesture was es­pecially appropriate since last Friday was the night of the passover.

Have you heard the story about the sophomore who went on a party in Lawrence the Saturday night be­fore registration day dressed in a gray suit and a topcoat, and came to in the wee sma’ hours Monday morn­ing in a baggage car on a Portland siding, dressed in a blue suit and an overcoat, with an unpunched ticket from Lawrence to Durham in the hat­band of his derby?

The two College Inn-fidels who were stranded far from Durham in a strange car late Monday morning are still sticking to the same story.

The swimming season has started with a splash— three o f them, in fact — and three corresponding sets of shivers.

By V. L. M., ’31 and W. M. S., ’33 The call o f spring is in the air de­

spite fleeting snows and raging bliz­zards, and although the covering still conceals the library steps, the sharp crack of the fungo on the horsehide sphere wafting from the vicinity of Brackett field assures one that the season of baseball, love, and hives is here at last.

Out on Memorial field the lacrosse squad spends its afternoons blandly administering fractured skulls and broken ribs while participating in a game which includes all the ingre­dients of hockey, boxing, and homi­cide. Burning up the oval are Coach Paul Sweet’s track stars who have temporarily burned their telephone books and forgotten the way to Law­rence in their quest of new worlds to conquer.

The flaring headlines announcing the scholastic distinction of Barry Wood, the versatile Harvard quarter­back, remind us of the fact that our own varsity signal caller, Harry Wood, has again won a place on the scholastic role of honor. Perhaps next fall we may expect a coherent dissertation on the Einstein theory, rendered by the rival quarterbacks, when New Hampshire invades the stadium.

A review of the averages posted at the office of the registrar divulges the fact that track men make the best students with Ray Geoffrion leading the letter men with an 88.2 average while “ Slim” Douglas follows closely with an 87.9.

Three new portraits have been added to New Hampshire’s hall of fame with the recent College Humor all-American selections naming Harry Croke third choice in hockey, and according honorable mention to “ Dave” Wark in the same sport, and John Conroy in basketball. The name of “ Dick” Eustis was added last fall when the Associated Press A ll-Am er­ican pickers chose the Wildcat half­back for honorable mention in foot­ball.

Several Wildcat warriors of the past have worn the fickle mantle of fame with the names of “ Dutch” Connors, “ Cy” Wentworth, “ Dewey” Graham, “ Eddie” O’Conner, Furio Abbiati, “ Charlie” Bianchi, “ Johnny” Shea, “ Bill” Hoagland, Mark Neville, and Gadbois, all appearing on myth­ical gridiron selections.

Nor have so many years passed since the picture of Lloyd Patch adorned the sports page of College Humor as one of the fastest forwards in intercollegiate basketball circles. Less than a decade ago the names of Anderson, Cotton, Craig, and Taylor dominated college basketball in New England.

On the diamond “ Del” Bissonette has carried the colors of the Blue and White to the “ Big Show” as a mem ber of the Brooklyn Robins, while the work of “ Steve” Slayton on the mound, and Dan Redden at the bat won the acclaim of Eastern scribes for several years.

Vague reverberations of a ruckus and a threatened rift on lower Main street have been rumbling around town.

In track Paul Toolin, University record holder in the hurdles, won his event at the Penn relays, held the New England championship in the low hurdles, and broke the N. E. A. A. U. record in the 440 low hurdles. “ Arnie” Noyes won the New England intercollegiate championship in 1929 and later won the A. A. U. junior title in the 440-yard dash. “ Duke” Peaslee won the N. E. I. C. C. A. championship at Franklin park and still holds the New England intercollegiate two-mile record. Back in the days when ath­letics at New Hampshire were in the embryonic stage, the immortal Night­ingale won the national championship in intercollegiate cross country. Henry Hazen broke the N. E. I. C. C. A. rec­ord at Franklin park last fall, while Henry Raduazo established a new freshman record at the same meet.

Dear Editor:Three years ago, after a long

period of wholesale reinstatement of nearly everyone who flunked out of this University, the faculty made a drastic change of policy and imposed a period o f suspension (one term in the majority of cases) on practically all students who failed to pass the re­quired number of units. For a time the faculty adhered to the change, but Recently a laxity in enforcement has been noticeable. It is not at all un­common for a student to be directly reinstated to standing with no period of suspension.

It is evident from this that the Uni­versity dislikes to drop any name from its roll. Since no change o f note has been made in the number o f flunk outs, it follows that the words “ dropt from college” on the slip o f marks, repre­sent no more than an invitation to become better acquainted in the offices in Thompson hall. One particular person has been directly reinstated on four different occasions. He must have made many of those valuable contacts which are promised as the greatest things about college to look back on. It may be, too, that the object is to keep as many students as possible on probation, and the flunk- out-reinstatement route has been adopted as the best excuse for en­acting the measure.

But there is the student’s aspect to the question. To go through the red tape necessary for reinstatement com­plicates registration, which is far more complex than taking out life in­surance or getting a passport anyway, and is very wearing on the nerves, considering particularly the long wait in the Dean’s office. Notification of loss of University standing causes a lot o f domestic trouble to mar an otherwise pleasant vacation, even though the intrinsic significance of the situation is almost nil. It is sel­dom invigorating to encounter pa­rental wrath, and the result often brings many little inconveniences.

It is the aim in modern business practices to cut out all confusion and lost motion, but the converse appears to be true in the education of the sons of New Hampshire. A1 Capone’s staff o f legal experts has made no more loopholes in the laws of Illinois than now exist in the University fa il­ure ruling.

It is easy to suggest better ways to gain the same ends as are now being gained by the failure route. Names might be drawn out o f a hat and the unfortunate ones informed that they were on probation and would be compelled to attend a re­ception to be held in their honor on the first floor of Thompson hall. Or the selection could be made in alpha­betical order in such numbers as would allow each student to attend one such reception before he gradu­ated.

But, if by some quirk of fate, the object of the whole proceeding is to raise the scholastic standing of the University, as it apparently is not, a bit of action in the way o f actually putting the “ out” in flunk out would have a much greater effect than long sermons to the freshmen on the trials and tribulations of the delinquent student.

Yours truly,LOUIS N. SHERMAN.

Dead Editor:Since your last issue a rather sur­

prising incident has occurred on the campus which is, perhaps, not widely known. I speak of the ban on radios, or confiscation, rather, for necessary parts to each set found in a dormi­tory room were seized during vaca­tion without warning or comment. Such a deed has a most undemocratic flavor and savors unpleasantly of the Inquisition.

On March 20, last, we left our campus homes confident in their pro­tection by upright officers and laws of our community; we returned to find them desolate. Vandal hands of secret police had been laid on private prop­erty and our cherished radios were no more. No more may we listen to soothing strains after the day’s work is done, and the strong voice o f Lowell Thomas has become a memory. We creep fearfully to and from our silent homes uncertain where the next blow may fall and praying only that wealth, a friend at court, or prowess on Me­morial tourney field may yet win for us a coveted Greek letter badge which raises the wearer from the down­trodden caste of dormitory dwellers to live as a free gentleman, if not a scholar, in some lofty citadel or lux­urious palace.

For, mark you, the thing was done without warning and behind our backs with no chance given to protest or comply with resurrected blue laws we did not know existed. Radios have been installed and maintained for years past in many dormitory rooms in plain sight to all and now, suddenly, they are gone without even the dignity of a public proclamation. And we are left to guess the reason.

Is it for fear of fire? Then why not insist merely that authorized elec­tricians shall install all sets at proper

“ Naked on Roller Skates” is the startling title o f Maxwell Boden- heim’s latest novel. Bodenheim, the Jewish poet and novelist, seems to be exceptionally well acquainted with the lower circles o f society in New York City. When one compares this piece of work with his “ A Virtuous Girl,” which came out about a year ago, one realizes that Bodenheim is a very ver­satile writer, if not always a careful one. He writes, we feel, with a good deal of understanding of two entirely different environments in these two books, as well as writing in them of two entirely different periods. “ Naked on Roller Skates” has as its chief background the underworld of the “ Great American Metropolis” and especially Eighth avenue in the lower twenties. The time is the present. “ A Virtuous Girl” is a story of the “ mauve decade,” or the late nineties. The environment is also very differ­ent, being distinctly middle-class.

Bodenheim’s originality is indisput­able. His style, choice of characters and settings, and treatment are all very, very different from anything else we have ever read. His poetry has the same distinction. In “ Naked on Roller Skates” one expects the main character, Terry, who enters the scene in a rather intoxicated state, to be a young man in his twenties. Suddenly the reader is almost bowled over by the astounding discovery that the hero is a well-preserved adven­turer of fifty-six. A young widow of twenty-four asks him to take her along with him for at least one year. She says she wants to learn life, brush up against the worst of it all. He agrees, marries her, and takes her to New York City, where they most cer­tainly do brush up against some husky adventures. The girl is in love with Terry, but annoyed by his apparent indifference, thinks of all sorts of ways to discover a little show of per­sonal emotion on his part. She finally succeeds, but almost loses her life in the attempt.

One aspect of the author’s attitude is clearly shown throughout this book. That is his hatred of the human race and his exceptionally strong cynicism. He despises man, we feel, even more than did Swift. His analyses o f hu­man actions and motives are extra­ordinarily jpitiless. We can appre­ciate his attitude, but find it impos­sible to agree that humanity is so perfectly despicable as he would have it. In fact we think the situation is much better than it might be.

Perhaps you read “ Ex-W ife,” the first of the famous “ E x” books. The author of that rather interesting book has written another novel, this time in the third person. It has already found its way into the movies, to ­gether with “ Millie” and others. The title o f both the novel and the picture is “ Strangers May K iss” and there is a great deal of subtle meaning in that title which can only be realized after a reading of the book. We have not yet had the opportunity to see the screen version. As regards the story, the chief thing that sticks in our memory is that Alan, the hero, decides that he wants to marry the girl too late, for she dies before he can. Such is the irony of existence! All in all, “ Strangers May K iss” makes very in­teresting recreational reading matter and is, we think, a bit better done than was “ E x-W ife.”

Two older and more artistically done books which we have read re­cently are Sherwood Anderson’s “ Winesburg, Ohio,” and James Branch

Loc,al Chapter

The seventh annual convention of the American association o f Univer­sity women is now being held in the Hotel Statler in Boston, April 8-12. The delegate from the local branch (Great Bay branch) is Dr. Naomi Ekdahl, recently elected next year’s president. The corporate delegate representing the University is Mrs. Alma B. Jackson, who, this June, resigns the present presidency of the branch. It is expected that many members o f the local branch will at­tend the convention as visitors.

High lights of the convention will be addresses by Dorothy Canfield, Dr. John Erskine, and Professor Winifred Cullis, president o f the International Federation of University Women. Many famous educational leaders are also on the program.

The I. F. U. W., of which the A. A. U. W. is a member, has its club houses all over the world, including Japan and China. A member o f the Am er­ican association, by merely presenting her membership card, may obtain ad­mission into any one of these houses.

The American association is 43 years old. 1882 marked its founding. It is selective in regard to its mem­bers. Not all women graduates of American universities may belong to it. It determines what universities may have their graduates eligible for membership by a very thorough method of repeated personal visits and investigation. Three years ago this University became a corporate member; its graduates are now eligible for membership in the associ­ation. It is thus that the University has a corporate delegate to the con­vention in Boston.

Besides the local Great Bay branch of the A. A. U. W. there are four ethers throughout the state. The president of the combined New Hamp­shire branches is Mrs. Helen F. Mc­Laughlin of the Home Economics department here.

FRESHMAN BASEBALL PRACTICE STARTED

More Than Forty-five Candidates Re­port to Coach Lundholm for First

Year Team— First Game with Sanborn Seminary

April 30

More than 45 candidates for fresh­man baseball are working daily on Brackett field under the watchful guidance of Coach Carl Lundholm. This number includes eight catchers, nine pitchers, four aspirants for first base, three for second, four for short­stop, five for third and twelve out­fielders, being altogether a well bal­anced squad.

Due to the unwieldy proportions of the squad, Coach Lundholm has been forced to divide his squad into two parts in order to give each candidate a fair opportunity to exhibit his in­dividual prowess. The division has been made by alphabetical order with each group practising every other day until a cut is made.

Practise to date has been largely devoted to lectures to the entire squad on the mechanics o f playing and the strategy of the game. On Monday the first group was given the initial batting practise o f the season.

An extremely imposing list of op­ponents has thus far been scheduled, the first o f which will be met when the Kittens take on Sanborn seminary at Durham, April 30. The remainder of the schedule includes the Dart­mouth junior varsity, Harvard fresh­man, Tufts freshmen, Boston univer­sity freshmen, Tilton school, New Hampton school, Hebron academy, St. Anselm ’s prep, Wentworth institute, and Phillips Andover academy. Seven of the scheduled encounters will be played on Brackett field with the o f­ficial culmination of the season be­ing marked by the Andover game at Andover, June 3.

Cabell’s “Jurgen.” I f you like short stories, get a copy o f “ Winesburg, Ohio.” These stories, done after the manner o f the “ Spoon River A n­thology,” are among the very best short stories we ever read, and have the advantage o f being distinctly American. In “ Jurgen,” under the cover o f allegory, there is a great deal of pertinent philosophy and acute observation. In both of these books, the contemporary attitude of despair and purposelessness, the almost nihil­istic attitude which seems to have seized so many o f our advanced thinkers, is quite apparent. Everyone is seeking something, and finding nothing. Both books, in this respect, reminded us o f T. S. E liot’s “ The Waste Land.”

The varsity lacrosse team will embark upon its spring term schedule Saturday, when it plays Brown at Providence. This is the second year of lacrosse at this University, last year being merely an attempt to foster interest in the game rather than to find an extensive schedule. Out of the three games played last year, New Hampshire won from Tufts and the Boston Lacrosse club, and lost to Harvard. Coach Christensen is quite handicapped in finding material since each player has no or little knowledge o f the sport except what a few learned last year. About forty five men are out for the sport, most of them being football men. Interest has been manifested by the players and before the season closes, much is expected from them. This sport was instituted so as to displace spring football and at the same time to admit and foster interest in a new game.

Coach Christensen has undertaken an ambitious schedule and should he win half o f these games, he would do exceedingly well. The schedule o f the games and their dates is as follows:

April 11, Brown at Providence; April 18, Boston university at Dur­ham; May 2, M. I. T. at Durham; May 8, Harvard at Cambridge; May 16, Tufts at Medford; May 23, Boston Lacrosse club at Durham; June 3, Harvard at Durham (pending).

FRESHMEN PREPARE FOR TRACK SEASON

Tryouts to be Held on April 18— Com­petition to Select Men for An­

nual Spring Term Intra­mural Meet to be

Run on Same Day

PLEDGING NOTICE

Tryouts for freshman track will take place on April 18 and at the same time the fraternities will se­lect the men to represent them in the annual spring term intramural meets.

The schedule for the freshman track team is as follow s: May 2, Exeter at Exeter; May 9, M. I. T. Freshmen at Cambridge; May 15, Brown Fresh­men at Durham; May 30, B. C. Fresh­men at Newton.

Judging from present workouts and past records, the Frosh have several outstanding men, some o f them sec­ondary school stars. Among- these are: Sprowell, Miller, and Andrew, quarter mile, who ran on the fresh­man relay team. Knox is showing promises of breaking records in ham­mer throwing, and Tomkin is entered for the pole vault and shot put. There are several better than average sprinters for the dashes and a num­ber o f men from last fa ll’s freshman cross-country team have entered the half-mile and the mile events. Only one or two good pole vaulters and broad jumpers have entered. Indica­tions are that the team will be weak in hurdles and high jumping, as there are no experienced men in the small number of candidates for these events.

A t present there are 65 freshmen out for one or more o f the 15 events which is- an exceedingly small number in light of form er years and which has considerably dimmed the chances of a successful season. Coach Sweet, however, expressed hope o f a few more candidates reporting prior to the opening o f the season.

EASTER SUNRISE SERVICEHELD AT HIGHLAND HOUSE

Forty-four people were present at an Easter sunrise service held on the lawn o f the Highland house at New­market Sunday. The service opened with a violin solo by Helen Ladd. The invocation was given by Ruth Davis. A hymn was sung as the next part o f the program. This was followed by the reading of a poem by Evelyn Huse and a short talk by Benjamin Andrew. A fter this prayer was offered by Gunther Blombach. The program was brought to a close with a hymn and another violin solo by Helen Ladd. The Highland House served breakfast to the group at 7 o ’clock.

But we are given only the bleak explanation: “ It is the policy of the college,” as if it were, “ It is the will of the King.”

Of course, undergraduates do not really need private radios any more than do faculty members or any one else. But some o f us do not choose to listen to jazz endlessly poured out on popular demand through legal radios in dormitory lobbies, and have an innocent, and it would seem praise­worthy, desire to make a more dis­criminating choice o f music and pub­lic discussion in our own rooms. And we hope that if brought to the atten­tion o f higher authorities this ruling may be reconsidered.

EXCELLENT MEALS IN ATTRACTIVE SURROUNDINGS

One likes to eat his meals where he is assured of the utmost cleanliness in preparation, highest-quality foodstuffs, and a desire to render courteous service. To meet these conditions for students, faculty and their guests, the University maintains its own dining room.

You are invited to take your meals with us, paying for each meal separately, purchasing a cafeteria ticket ($6.00 value for $5.50) or by using our meal ticket with 7 breakfasts, 7 dinners and 7 suppers at $6.00. We think you will consider the $6.00 ticket an exceptional value.

CoolAll the Way

DownI f YOU inhale, you can quickly tell the difference between fresh and stale cigarettes. A Camel, protected by the Humi­dor Pack, retains its natural moisture, and gives you a cool mild smoke. But when you draw in the smoke from dried-

out stale tobacco, it’s hot and irritating to the throat.

If you haven’t discovered this difference, we suggest you switch to Camels for just one day. Then leave them tomor­row, if you can.R . J. R EYN O LD S TO BACCO CO.

of Macbeth and Lady Macbeth, re­spectively. Both gave admirable per­formances. Miss Bruce was most impressive in the sleep-walking scene. Too, this versatile actress has the uncanny ability of portraying more than one character in the same play with such changes in features, voice and gestures as to be almost un­recognizable.

The Shakespeare Players are in their fourth year as a group. Most of their performances have been given before various school and college audi­ences throughout the country. Their object has been to revive interest in the Shakespearian classics, presenting them as nearly as possible in their original form and content. The Players have a varied itinerary; they will not be back in this section o f the country for nearly two years, so it was indeed fortunate that the A. A U. W. secured them for this perform ­ance.

Fitting the service to the customer's needs

Bell System service is custom-made. Each of the 65,000,000 telephone calls handled in the average day must meet the exact wishes of the person making the call.

Telephone men study a customer’ s com­munication needs, then advise the type of equipment that fits them best. For depart­ment stores they may recommend the “ order turret” — a special switchboard for taking orders by telephone. Thus they enlarge the

store’ s service and simplify ordering for the customer. They develop equipment and pla'ns for brokerage houses, police departments, nation-wide sales forces — and all manner of business firms.

The telephone industry continues to grow by fitting its service more and more com­pletely to the user’ s needs. For men with insight and the ability to coordinate, the• opportunity is there!
