International YMCA Sponsors War Prisoners Aid Committee

Word has been received of the work of a world com- mittee sponsored by the International YMCA which will be of interest to campus members of the YMCA and YWCA as well as others who may be interested in higher education. It is called a committee on War Prisoners' Aid.

It has national offices in the capitals of the various nations as well as representa- tives in the many war prison camps throughout the world. The work of the committee is recog- nized by the enemy as well as by the United Nations.

Specific work of the committee is the extension of college level work to any prisoner who may be interested in it. The committee acts as a connecting link between the prisoner and the university or college which he may have attend- ed or in which he wishes to enroll.

Committee on War Prisoners' Aid will purchase textbooks, work- books, or any other supplies a also be shipped and delivered by the committee. They will act on specifications made by the school furnishing the course. No sub- stitutes are imposed, though sup- plementary texts are often rap- plied.

The college or nniveristy is ask- ed to forward a syllabus of the course, lesson outlines, *.nd other pertinent material, to representa- tives of the committee who in turn send them on to the prison- ers.

In order that the men may re- ceive university credit for the work they do .schools are asked also to furnish an end-of-course examination, which is administer-

ed under standard testing condi-

So. oir*« i4iesonq tions by camp representatives of the committee.

The communication was addres- sed to Dean Clyde Hissong, re- garding a former Bowling Green University student who is at the present time a prisoner of war in Germany. Steps have already been taken to present him with the work he desires.

Bunn Leaves For Army Today; RotariansMeet Ninth Faculty Member To Go Here In April

DR. CAY W. ALLEN

Allen Is Author Of Book About Whitman's Life

Dr. Gay W. Allen, associate pro- fessor of English, is the author of "Twenty-five Years of Walt Whit- man's Biography," recently pub- lished by the F. W. Fstxon Co. of Boston.

This publication is the second edition to be prepared by Dr. Allen on Walt Whitman. The first was in 1934.

The author of a number of ar- ticles and reviews in the field of American literature, he is now under contract with a publisher to prepare a 1,000-page anthology of American literature. This will be the second volume in a set of two intended for use by undergraduate students.

A University of Wisconsin pro- fessor will edit the first volume, dealing with literature from Colonial times to 1860. Dr. Allen's volume will include works written from 1860 to the present.

Two of his most recent writings are a review of Henry S. Canby's book, "Walt Whitman, an Ameri- can," which was published ns the lead review in the January Ameri- can Literature Journal, and an article, "Walt Whitman in Com- parative Literature," published in the Comparative Literature News Letter.

Prof. Writes On Fossil Plant

Dr. Waldo E. Steidtmann of the biology department is the author of an article in the February issue of the Contributions from the Museum of Paleonthology of the University of Michigan, which do- scribes the research which led to his discovery of a fossil plant. The article is titled "The Anatomy and Affinities of Medullosa Noei Steidtmann and Associated Foli- age, Roots, and Seeds."

First work which led to discov- ery of the fossil plant was done by Dr. Steidtmann at the Univer- sity of Michigan several years ago. A report on several years of pre- liminary work was published in 1937 in the American Journal of Botany.

In 1939 Dr. Steidtmann was in- vited to the University of Illinois to continue the research during the summer term. Final work on the descriptive anatomy and pos- sible geological relationship of the fossil plant was done while Profes- sor Steidtmann was a visiting pro- fessor of biology of Michigan in the summer of 1940.

Room Reservations Should Be Made Now

A suggestion has come from the office of Dean of Students Arch B. Conklin, that students who are planning to attend Bow- ling Green State University next fall nnd wish to live on the campus, make their reservations as soon as possible.

Already a large number of stu- dents have made reservations for the various women's housing units.

If you are acquainted with any- one who plans to enroll at Bowling Green for the first time next fall, it would be well to notify that per- son to make a room reservation immediately.

Frank C. Campbell, a graduate of Bowling Green State University in industrial arts in 1932, has been appointed senior education super- visor in industrial arts in the New York State Department of Educa- tion, according to word received by Prof. D. J. Crowley.

First Night of 'The Old Maid' Shows Great Showmanship

by BETTY ROSENCRANS

First Night. The curtains parted. The play began. "The Old Maid" arose from the printed page as the characters breathed into aliveness. Another University Theater produc- tion was on the boards of the Bowling Green stage.

Before a capacity-filled auditorium the cast of 15 pre- sented the well-known stage and movie success "The Old

An inter-racial panel discussion will be featured at the next meet- ing of the YMCA, Thursday. The regular meeting will be held in Studio B of the Practical Arts Building at 8 p.m.

Five persons representing their own nationality will appear on the panel. They are: Kay Yokoyama, American-Japanesce; Florence Baker, American; William Gibson, Negro; Herbert Leibavitz, Jewish; and Richard Walniak,Polish-Catho- lic. Mrs. Orville Knoke will act as moderator.

Maid" by Zoe Akina. Prof. Elden T. Smith, head of the speech de- partment, directed the production.

The old maid was outstandingly portrayed by Bette Root. A diffi- cult role which called for suppres- sed emotion was deftly enacted by Bette who played it with profes- sional restraint.

Sharing scene by scene with Bette was Virginia Falknor as Delia Lovell. Beautifully gowned as the charming and wealthy cousin, Virginia was a striking fig- ure on the stage. Torn between love, jealousy, and loyalty the camplex character was realistical- ly brought to life by Virginia's excellent histronics.

Doreen Stoulfer as the crotchety old Mrs. Mingott made her debut to the University Theater audience a very successful one. Her caus- tic tongue and her blunt manner of speaking made the character of Mrs. Mingott a very favorite with the audience and brought into the play its few light moments.

Mary Helen Jsynes competently played the role of Tina, the child

for whom the old maid gave up everything. Her ingratiating man- ner and youthful appearance made her a charming ingenue.

Supporting roles were played by Olan Dunlap, Ralph Hendrick, Kenneth Rychener, Leo Hartig, Robert White, Jean Harshman, Patricia Eagy, Barbara Burridge, Cheryl Ann Smith, Dorothy Main, and Margaret LeFevre.

The settings were especially ef- fective. The Ralston drawing- room was perhaps one of the most beautiful sets ever used in a Uni- versity production. The sets were in perfect harmony with the period which covered from 1839 until 1864.

The nineteenth century cos- tumes added greatly to the effec- tiveness of the play. As did the background of music of that per- iod. Their authenticity lent an unmistakable air of reality to the stage.

The curtain closed. The lights came up. The characters stepped back into the printed page. First Night was over.

To Our Fighting Falcons . .. Editor's Note: The following editorial is di- rected to former students in the armed ser- vices who receive copies of the Bee Gee News weekly.

One of the greatest enjoyments that up- perclassmen of our University receive these days is the arrival of some of you men who were once students here with us.

Almost daily a visiting serviceman can be seen in the Nest, the Well, or one of the sorority houses talking to the students and faculty members with whom he used to share an every day life. To most of these men, it is like coming home. And to us it is a step back to "the way things used to be."

You are always welcome here. And most of you can find among us someone who used to sit beside you in Soc. class, or who used to dance with you in the Nest.

Undoubtedly you will find Bowling Green changed. Most of the fellows you used to know are no longer here. The fraternity houses are bare, in comparison with a year ago. And Sailors and Marines have taken the place of our civilian men. But the spirit is still here—the spirit you helped to instill, and which we are trying to preserve for all of you.

So when that leave or furlough comes up, try to spend a day or two on the campus you know so well. It helps us to know that you think enough of Bowling Green to come back, and it will help you to know that we are here —waiting.

Varied Audience Reaction ... The audience reaction to "The Old Maid"

on Friday and Saturday nights were as un- alike as day and night. On Friday night the audience laughed at most of the high emotional peaks of the play. On Saturday night a much more adult audience accepted these crises.

Part of the first night's reaction can be at- tributed to high school students, but only part of it. The rest of the blame falls on the shoulders of University men and women.

College students like to be thought of as adult. Yet, when they act like 16 year olds they contradict themselves. The tittering and guffaws which greeted the love scenes was objectionable not only to part of the audience but also to the actors.

The cast of "The Old Maid" gave superb performances both nights, and showed excel- lent showmanship by not being thrown off by an amatuer audience. They did a professional job. It is unfortunate that part of Friday night's audience accepted their fine efforts in the manner of amateurs.

So Long ... Again we feel the pangs of man shortage

as Registrar Jack Bunn leaves his position to join the ranks of the Army.

Mr. Bunn is the man who used to straighten a hopelessly jumbled schedule for you— probably the first person you met when look- ing your prospective college over.

On behalf of the student body, the faculty and administration, we wish Mr. Bunn all the luck in the world in this new undertaking. And if he "takes hold" in the Army like he has done at Bowling Green, how can the war last much longer?

Hedden Stables Have Been On Campus For Six Years

by JEAN NEWMAN Mr. and Mrs. H. G. Hedden came here six years ago. It

had been decided that Bee Gee have riding stables just off the campus, and the Heddens were to manage it. Since that time, a lot of well-trained equestriennes have graduated from the University, and the stables have grown also with its age and reputation. Now the barns boast 24 head: four privately owned, three "youngsters", and one colt.

"You have to know the language horse people use before you can really understand me," Mr. Hed- den said. "It's a talk all its own. You see, the colt is a male, from one to three years of age, while the filly is a female three-year-old. . . . Reminds me of the young sports writer, quite a sportsman himself, who wrote up our 12- year-old mare. He called her 'as nice a 'filly* as you ever looked at'.

the editor's mail Dear Editor:

A recent editorial in the Bee Gee News requested that students refrain from walking on the grass. Inasmuch as this request has not been heeded by everyone, Beta Gamma Upsilon Fraternity has taken the initiative in urging that all campus organizations respect their campus and take pride in striving to maintain its beauty.

The beauty of the lawns can be preserved only if every one pledges himself to use the walks at nil times. It has been suggested that walks be placed wherever paths have been formed. This hardly seems practical when you realize that our campus would be a verticlc maze of sidewalks. True, in some instances sidewalks arc needed. But until they are provided, each student should take it on himself to use the walks that exist.

This letter is being sent to each sorority and fraternity, to Shatzel Hall, to the residents of the Wo- men's Building, to the Administra- tion, and to the Editor of the Bee Gee News.

We are enclosing herewith a suggested pledge which we urge

Unif or m s, uniforms!! V-5, Navy, Marine, blue ones, green ones, olive ones, pink ones, yellow ones, purple ones, plaid ones— whoa! Are you confused? So were we. Let's back up a bit. We were doing beautifully until we got to the pink ones. Oh, yes, it was that dream the other night.

We were peacefully snoozing away, seeing the trim uniforms of our armed forces with you-know- what in them, and nearly bounced out of the upper when approxi- mately 6,732 variously colored sweaters started pulling the wool over our eyes.

Then, and only then, did we realise that the uniform of the co-ed is the traditional skirt and sweater. There probably isn't a woman student on campus who doesn't own at least two or three, and some the proud possessors of as many as 20 or 30.

Just glance around in your class- es tomorrow, and if you find more than five girls dressed in something other than sweaters drop around and we'll pay you the 64 dollars.

Dear Editor;

We wish to express our deepest gratitude to all those members of the faculty and student body who contributed to our well-being in any way during our recent dis- aster. Your gifts were greatly appreciated.

feeling especially good when some- one comes to watch, he 11 put on his best act and prance and pose just so. He's practically human. I can tell immediately upon en- tering the stable which horses have been correctly watered, fed, and bedded down. A horse talks with his eyes and his actions."

To be a good rider, the horse must fear you. He must know that you have control of his mind, are the the master of the situation, and he will respect you. The moment he senses your in- security, he will decide to take care of the matter himself. If a student is out on the bridle path trotting a horse, and a stranger comes up to distract, that control is immediately broken.

Mr. Hedden went on, "People think that dogs are more Intelli- gent than horses. Such a belief can be explained by the fact that people are never around their horses enough.

"Last year we had 84 girls rid- ing for credit, but when the weath- er turns better, we'll know how many to expect this season. Thesa girls that ride by the semester are willing to get an hour's credit by riding two periods—and it costs them 10 dollars. Our Boots and Sud(lies Club costs 51 dollars a year, besides the outfits. That shows they like it.

happy landing By CADET ROBERT RECKMAN

The college and the V-5 unit were paid a fine compliment by a Navy flyer who passed through Bowling Green recently. He said our quarters are better and more comfortable than any we are likely to receive in all of our training, even after we get our wings. Perhaps it is the excellent use and care shown by the cadets, especial- ly on Sunday mornings at inspec- tion time.

The new elementary group that arrived recently at least look like flyers. Every morning and after- noon one can find them putting on flight jackets, fleece-lined trousers and boots, and helmets complete with gogles. The more advanced cadets look rather Incon- spicuous walking out to their "Cub" modified only by para- chutes.

Lt Spohn has devised a new plan for keeping us on the look- out for other planes while we are

"What meals I It is just like a dream. I intend to do one of the best jobs of loafing imaginable. The beds are about like they are at home and you really sink down in them. The shops have all kinds of pastry and ice cream. Yesterday was nice and I spent most of the time wandering around taking pic- tures of the people and the city.

Dance Recital Will Be May 4

May 4 is the date for the Mod- ern Dance Club recital this year. Every Tuesday and Thursday, un- der the audience of Miss Emilie Hartman the group has been bus- ily preparing its repertior.

This year the club is privileged to have with them some exception- al talent. Rosalyn Rabkin, Bar- bara Burridge and Phyllis Gold. Rosalyn. Rabkin, a junior from Findlay, Ohio, studied tap and ballet for five years, tap being her specialty. In Toledo she stu- died under Frica Ransome, Patriza Heineman and at the Berke and Milar Studio.

Acrobatic dancing is Barbara Burridge's choice although she has studied toe, tap and ballet. In Waukegan, 111. she studied at the Fosberg School of Dance and the Metzler School of Dance and at Lake Forest, 111. at the Emma School of Dance.

Studying at the Walden School of Creative and Interpretive Dance, Phyllis Gold is a protegie of Jane Dudley and Sophie Mas- low, who gave a recital at Bowling Green last year.

The girls' experience has added much to the club and will add greatly in making the program a success.

The theme of the recital is be- ing centered around the growth and development of the dance. The snappy twentieth century dance is a creative interpretation of the jitterbug, can can, waltz and blues. The 16th century num- ber is composed of the olamond and jig.

With the variety of movement and tempo it should appeal to all the campus "music-lovers".

Table Tennis Club Has Sports Day

Last Saturday morning the Bee Gee Table Tennis Club entertain- ed a group of Heidelberg women at the Women's gym. The special events were basketball; volleyball and ping pong. Between each event ice cream was served.

It was rather early in the morn- ing for a basketball tussel but this did not keep Clara Miller and Dorothy Hall from demonstrat- ing their command of the court. Starting early in the game Miller ran up nine points, while Hall, not yet quite awake, sunk three basketts. Despite her size, little Peg Benroth was quite a match for the Heidelberg guards. By their excellent passing and gunrding, Marge Craig, Janet rlartzel and Les Gurvin held the Heidelberg forwards down to only four points.

Heidelberg put in some fresh players in the second half which enabled them to run up their score to 12. This did not seem to effect our coeds, however, as Dot Hall came back to sink six bas- kets. The visitors put up a good fight, but were unuble to make their shots count. The final score was Bowling Green 35, Heidelberg, 12.

Playing "rover" the first half of the vollyball game, the Bee Gee freshmen held the Heidelberg eight to a score 17-16. Guscott, Lowman and Henkie displayed their ability at spiking as the op- position kept shooting the ball across. The "rotation" serve was used in the second half which seemed to confuse the home team, or maybe they need a little prac- tice at playing their own positions. Evelyn Lots of Heidelberg, chalk- ed up 18 points for her team, while Lowman, Guscott and Hub- ble shared the top honors for the Falconnetts. After a hard game Heidelberg was victorious with a score of 42-83.

Heidelberg had with them Eu Haulman, the "Champ" ping pong player from their campus. She clashed with Clara Miller in a singles match and won by only a small margin. In the singles matches Heidelberg won four and Bowling Green two. The Falcon- ette victors were Lois Kocklaun and Arlene Sterns. In the doubles Heidelberg won two and Bee Gee one. The Bowling Green winners were Nancy Kinne and Dot Hall.

A/S Feisel will compete in the low board and the high board div- ing. Mason was unable to com- pete in college competition dur- ing the regular swimming season because at the time he was a freshman. A/S Feisel held the city championship in high and low board diving at Fostoria, Ohio, from 1939 through 1943.

Anderson Opposes Cage Rule Change

Coach Harold Anderson was one of two coaches who disagreed with a proposal made by the National Association of College Basketball Coaches to curb the goal tender.

Two proposals were made by 39 coaches and will be considered by the National Rules Committee. They were:

1. That each player be permitted five personal fouls

2. Thut something should be done to curb the goal tender.

Several couches pointed out thut, with the ubolishment of the cen- ter jump, extra minutes of time had been udded to the game but the number of fouls had remained the same.

The coaches voted by a big ma- jority to increase the personal fouls.

Coach Anderson and Coach Hank Iba, mentor of the Okluhoma Aggies, who has seven-foot Bob Kurland, were the only two to dis- agree with the 39 on the proposal to curb the towering goalies.

Three methods of stopping the tall players which are being con- sidered are:

1. To create a special zone by drawing a six foot circle under the busket or widening the foul lane and prohibiting the players from staying within the zone more than three seconds.

2. To abolish the three-second rule, which would permit more maneuverability under the basket, according to some coaches.

8. To penalize a player for touching the ball on its downward flight.

Coaches were about 60-60 on the question of permitting unlimited substitutions.

Doctor Approves War Marriages

To the would-be bride, Dr. Gulielma F. Alsop, physician for New York's Barnard college and co-author of a book on marriage, offers this advice: "Once assured in your own mind, marry him— the soldier, the sailor, the man of the sky—before he goes to war."

Dr. Alsop thinks "a lot of non- sense is being written and said about marriages."

After years of association with girls at the school, she said in an interview she feels young women should not be too timid or cau- tious about marrying men they've known for a reasonable length of time.

"Young people of today are ro- mantic, idealistic and ready for any kind of devotion," she said.

'But Don't Go Near The Water9

Unless You Watch Pool Rules One of the moat popular spots on campus is the Nata-

torium. Since its creation in 1939 it has offered an ideal form of recreation to the student body, has been the means of teaching non-swimmers to swim, and been the scene of many an exciting swimming meet.

The Natatoriurn was built at an approximate cost of 145,000 dollars. The seating ca- pacity of the building is 460; the pool measures 35 feet by 75 feet and is filled with 116,000 gallons of water.

The water is completely changed once a year, while the water sys- tem is in circulation at all times. Every two weeks the filters are backwashed, which necessitates the addition of approximately 10,000 gallons of water.

Chlorine is used in an amount in strict adherence to preventive sanitation rules. This amount is determined by regular bacteria check. An alkaline balance is de- sirable since it results in fewer eye and nose irritations.

During an average duy, the pool is used by 25 women nnd 129 men, a total of 164. Bathing suits arc furnished at the pool, and they are laundered daily in our institution- al laundry.

Last week the pool wns closed because of a high bacterial count. Authorities have stated that this was caused by laxity in observing pool regulations. Observance of these few simple rules can pre- vent this from occurring again. An activity card, stamped by the University physician, is required for ull; a cap or any other head covering to keep hair out of the

The heightened emotion that sweeps the youth of a nation in war time makes for permanence in marring*.

"The basis of all marriage is re- sponsibility and trust. And the young woman of today is self-re- liant, capable nnd determined. 1 have confidence in the young wo- man of today to make a success of marriage and motherhood. -

"But I do not advocate the weekend marriage, which is the chief thing to be feared. The young woman who meets a soldier on Friday, marries him on Satur- nnd parts with him—perhaps for months—on Monday may have serious difficulties ahead."

She advised war brides not to date other men, but to devote lei- sure hours to war work or to en- tertaining soldiers at properly con- ducted community parties.

She also warns young war brides: "You will now always be judged as a member of a partner- ship, not as on isolated individual. You must reflect your husband's idenls as well as your own.

"You have become a part of the war. Win the war with him."

water, and a warm soap shower, followed by a cold shower are also required.

A cold shower to remove excess chlorine after leaving the pool, is also recommended. Entrance will not be permitted if the student has a cold or is wearing any kind of bandage. No one is allowed to enter the pool unless there is a life guard in attendance.

Recreational swimming is held on Monday evenings from 8 p.m. to 9 p.m. and on Tuesday evenings from 6:30 to 7:30, and is open to all students who present an activ- ity card.

Americas Should Exchange Writings

SAN FRANCISCO—( ACP)— Flavio Herrera, author and pro-

Herrera arrived on a United States state department-arranged tour to prepare for an exchange of professorships between United States and Guatemala universities.

"While many Latin-Americans are quite familiar with the transla- tions of English classics, and many North Americans are equally fa- miliar with the translations of Spanish classics, there is insuffi- cient interchange and understand- ing of contemporary American writings in both English and Span- ish," he declared.

Scientists Study Bee Romances

BATON ROUGE, LA.—ACP)— Two scientists at Louisiana State

university plan to go far out into lonely marshes, or to an Island off the gulf coast, to conduct a large-scale experiment in romance —with bees.

Dr. Warren Whitcomb, research apiculturist, and Dr. Otto Macken- sen, specialist in bee genetics in a United States department of ag- riculture laboratory at Louisiana State, will try "selective breed- ing" of the honey-gatherers.

The local laboratory has been working on another method of controlling stock, artificial insemi- nation. As yet, they report, ar- tificially inseminated queens are not entirely satisfactory. With further improvement in technique they say it is likely, however, the artificial method will replace the natural method in selective breed- ing.

Meantime ,the simplest solution seems to be the "isolation" method, such as the marsh or island plan —a sort of "guided nature" idea.
