The Bethel College Men's Chorus directed by Prof. A. D. Schmutz. will give a concert in the chapel Wednesday, May 2 at 7:30. This organization has an enviable reputation in Kansas music circles for its fine choral offerings. It was second place in the Kansas Inter-Collegate contest at Winfield last spring against strong competition.
The director is a man of broad musicianship and a pleasing person-ality. This pianoist-organist-compos-er is a member of the Bethel College music faculty. Prof. Schmutz was president of the Kansas State Music Teachers Association last year.
A varied program of real merit is assured. This concert is given under the auspices of the McPherson College student council.
Perhaps the biggest musical event in the history of McPherson occurred Thursday evening when the Minneapolis Orchestra, under the dr-rection of Henri Verbrugghen, gave a concert in the new auditorium.
This organization, judged by mu-sic critics as the finest of its kind, proved a delight to the musician and the layman alike, as was indicated by the enthusiastic applauses Everyone of the more than fifty musicians is an artist. They were able to produce any effect from the most delicate pianissimo to the extreme bravura style at the will of the con-ductor, who gave a most artistic interpretation throughout the pro-gram. Clearness of outline, solidity, fine shadings and balance of parts and perfect ensemble were always in evidence. The frequent promin-ence of the wood-wind instruments were especially effective.
The two outstanding numbers of the program were "The Carnival Romain" Overture by Berloiz and Overture to "Tannhauser" by Wagner in these the orchestra and conductor displayed the virtuous and interpretative ability.
The soloist, Miss Jeanette Veer land, was a soprano with a beautiful voice and fine training.
The orchestra gave a concert to a capacity house, both in the afternoon for school children and the evening concert. At both the mu-sicians were liberal with their encores. McPherson was fortunate to successfully sponsor the presenta-tion of such an organization
Following is the evening program.
1. Overture. “Carnaval Romain," Op., a Berloiz.
2. Micaela's Aria. "Je dis que rien ne M'epouvante" from "Carmen," Bizet.

JUNIOR SENIOR BANQUET ENGLISH COURT STYLE
Ellsworth Captures High Honors In Class A—Lorraine And Claflin Take Class B
Tennis Match Was Called On Account
Of Darkness With Roxbury And Sylvan Grove Contesting
Ellsworth high school, captured six first places and totaling alto-gether 32 1-3 points, won the Class A division of the Seventh McPherson college invitational here Satur-day afternoon. Lorraine and Claflin took 21 points each to win Class B honors and Lyons finished second
to Ellsworth in Class A. The sweep-stakes trophey went to Ellsworth as did the cup for individual high point honors. James Malir, captain of the Kittens, capturing 15 points by taking firsts in the century, furlong and broadjump. Zvolanek, weight man capturing both shot and discus, added ten points to the Ellsworth score while Bryan won the javelin for the name team.
Meet records were made by Bryan, who hurled the javelin 152 feet, 6 1-2 inches against a terrific wind which swept from the south, rolling the participants and fans in clouds of dust; by Dees, Lorraine freshman who tossed the shot 48 feet 1 3-4 inches to win the Class B shot and by Gray of Newton the the pole vault, clearing 11 feet 2 7-8 inches.
Hurdle races and century dash were run with the wind on the backs of the runners, but the furlong was run directly into the teeth of the gale.
McPherson high school captured the Class A mile and half mile relays while the medley event went to Sterling. In Class B, Claflin won the half mile and medley and Pretty Prairie won the mile event. It was
a third in this event, last of the day, which enabled the Claflin team to tie Loraine.
In Class B. Republic sent a two man team which won the 440, 880 and mile runs with case. Miller capturing the mile and Van Nords-strom winning the quarter and half.
Many schools entered in the Mc-Pherson meet passed it up, having made attempts to qualify men during the meet for the sectional meet to Salina late this week. In other years the McPherson meet, like other large ones, has been direct qualification for the state but this year with the sectional meets being run in only eight towns the meet became but a qualification for the sectional and several schools picked easier meets in which to qualify.
A girls track meet, including a half mile walk, quarter mile run, 100 yard dash, baseball throw, and the broad and high jump was held in connection with the boys meet, and under the direction of the Wo-men's A A of McPherson College. About 10 high schools entered teams.

Debate, Program And Refresh-ments Constitute Delightful Evening For Guests
Coach Is Presented Shaffer Pen And Pencil Set, And Pair Of Book
Ends By Debators
The debators and orators of McPherson College were entertained by Prof. and Mrs. Hess at their home Friday evening.
The feature of the evening was a debate on the question-- Resolved: The person who makes us think is more beneficial than the person who makes us laugh. The affirmative was upheld by Floy Brown and Ira ldhe, the negative by Fern Galle and Ralph Frantz. The guests served as judges returning the decision for the affirmative. "Find the Monkey." a game original with Prof Hess, was played with much interest.
Mrs. Hess served refreshments consisting of sandwiches, pickles and punch: fruit ice cream, angel food cake and nuts. She was assisted by Misses Gwen Galle, Ruth Blick-enstaff and Evelyn Richards.
The Varsity Debators presented Prof. Hess with a green pen and pencil set, a symbol of appreciation for his success with his ''green" team. A pair of book-ends was the token given by the Girls Debate team.
Those present were: Misses Floy Brown, Ruth Anderson, Nina Stull, Fern and Gwen Galle, Ruth Blick-enstaff, Evelyn Richards; Messrs. Philip Spohn. Ira Idhr. Ralph
Frantz, Marlin Hoover, Lawrence
Lehman and Lloyd Diggs. Regrets were received from Keith Hayes, Henry Hall and John Whiteneck.
President and Mrs. Schwalm re-turned Friday night from Munice, Ind., where they had been called on the Sunday previous by the illness and death of Mrs. Schwalm's father, Alexandria Studebaker. His death occurred Monday morning, April 23. The Schwalm’s wore unable to drive the distance before his death arriv-ing there Monday night. Mrs. Schwalm had been in Munice sever-al weeks a short time ago. Students and friends extend sincere sympathy to the family at this time.
The Cecilian Music Society presented a program different from those usually given at its meetings last Thursday evening in the chem-istry lecture room.
Prof. Lewis Doll gave an hour's slide lecture, an historical survey of the spread of music beginning with the traveling troubadour in the king's palace, continuing to the old fashioned singing school, and concluding with the picture of thousands of chi-dren assembled in a park in New York City for chorus singing dur-ing National Music Week.
Records by the Minneapolis Sym-phony Orchestra were played. More such programs are planned for next year.
The average man is worried to death by two kinds of women: Those who can’t forget him and those who remember him.
HESS MAKES POSTER
OF M. C. ACHIEVEMENTS
The fact that McPherson College has won a great number of honors
and has been active in many departments was graphically brought to mind last Friday morning by the poster of Spectator clippings made by Prof. Maurice A. Hess. The display, which included headlines and articles concerning sports, forensics, fine arts, scholarship attainments, student organization activities, social functions, church, and president's inauguration and the pictures that have appeared in the Spectator, took a great deal of time to prepare. It not only indicates the pro-gress of the college but also proves that Prof. Hess is a booster and is interested in the student activities

Knight And Ladies Of 1928 Guests Of Class Of 1929 At King Arthur's Court
Tuesday evening at seven o’clock the Classes of 1928 and 1929 joined each other in the basement of the Brethren Church for the banquet. The scheme was entirely that of Medieval English Court style, displaying the plans of the Round Table of that period, with the King and Queen as the occupants of the throne prepared for them.
The decoration was entirely in the royal color of purple and gold, which are the Senior colors. Around the walls hang purple and gold drapings, with here and there a shield and its battle axe and sword. All the light of the Royal Court was given by candles displaying greatly the spirit of the court scene. On the tables were wreaths of flowers in the desired color.
As all the knights and ladies were gathered the bugle call came for the real of the feast. One by one the people marched to find their places at the table. The Banquet which awaited them was;
Orange Phosphate.
Creamed Chicken in Timbales, Waxed Beans, Candied Sweet Potatoes, Buttered Hot Rolls, Grape Ice, Spanish Jello Salad Brick Ice Cream, Cake, Coffee, Nuts, Opera Sticks.
This four-course dinner was serv-ed by twelve waiters and waitresses
dressed in Colonial style, while August San Romant's orchestra en-tertained with classical music.

The University of California is the largest University in the United States in point of enrollment with 17,311 students in attendance this year.

"The root of the difficulty lies in the relationship between the secon-dary schools and the colleges. Our students come to college 'prepared,' but with hardly the beginnings of an education. Contrasted with the stu-dents in English and Continental secondary schools, they must be rated, age for age, markedly infer-ior. There is no thouroughness of consistency in our school system. Our schools suffer from that disease that keeps them permanently en-feebled—'credities' the itch for credits, points, units, and semester hours. We are in the midst of a generation of students and teach-ers obsessed with the notion that or-ganization in education means more than anything else. Educational we are a nation of credit hunters and degree worshipers. Studies are considered mere payments demand-ed for the fun of being in school and the later privileges of college life.
The student knows he can drop the stuff he is studying as soon as he has “cashedd in" at the entrance gates what he is learning at school.
With such a system there is no searching inquiry into educational, values, and the true worth of study is obscured.
"The commanding problem of lib-eral education in America is the problem of unifying secondary edu-cation and collegiate eduacation without denying the essential characters and modern development of either To find a remedy for the existing situation is a difficult problem. The system of concentration and distribution, now used here at Harvard with general examinations at the final stages of progress in the subjects of concentraion might he tried in the preparatory schools, and prove the solution to the problem. There must be, however, co-operation with the colleges and one college must take the lead in starting a new system.

ESTES PARK STUDENT
CONFERENCE JUNE 6-16
Estes Park A beautiful spot among the mountains. The best place in this part of the country to spend a vacation. But it will mean this and more to a group of college and university students who will gather at the Association Camp for the Y M. C. A and the Y W. C. A joint Student Conference June 6 to 16.
It will be a Student Conference are in every sense of the word. Students in cooperation with the Regional Secretaries are making plans for the
Conference. Two students executives, Eugene Link of the College of Em-poria, Emporia Kansas and Mary Kinney, University or Nebras-ka, Lincoln, Nebraska will preside at the sessions of Conference. The of the ten day meetings "The Enrichment of Denial of Per-sonality" will be taken from a truly student viewpoint.
The Conference—ten days of in-spiration, fellowship and real think ing in a camp site shut off from the rest of the world by the mountain peaks of the Rockies.
Insipration— from the platform addresses -from,the scenic surround-ings from contact with other stu-dents from contact with students from other lands and from contact with student leaders.
Fellowship found in quest
groups—In friendship hours around
the campfire in campus hours along the mountain trails—watch-ing the sunrise from the mountain peaks fishing in the mountain streams and picnicing and meditating under the pines.
Real thinking -led by Sherwood Eddy, Norman Thomas and Rein-hold Niebuhr, the platform speakers. Thinking in the quest groups on such though stimulating subjects as "Paths to Peace" and ‘Foreign Relations." Thinking on campus problems and solutions for these problems.
- One student who attended the Conference last year sums her ex-perience. "To me Estes meant get-ting down to rock bottom. The sand
and the mud of our personal and group prejudices were out of the way. We dealt with realities and and because of that, I came away with a deeper consciousness, actual friendship where only surface ac-quaintances had existed before and an insight into problems I had not before. Words cannot and do not express all that it meant”
It might be of interest to some of the readers of the Spectator to know that the Austins are still busy at their task of evangelization and are enjoying their work very much. They are now engaged in their one, hundred and fifty-first campaign since they began in this field eleven years ago. During this time they have had the privilege of leading practically three thousand souls to faith in the Christ. They have worked from coast to coast.
At the present time they are at the Plum Creek Church near Elder-ton, Pennsylvania. And as a bit of history it might be of interest to know that a school was at one time started here but in 1877 it was merged into Juniata College. "In 1874 Elder Lewis Kimmel, assisted by Howard Miller, began a school in the Plum Creek meeting house, one mile from Elderton, Pennsylvania. He gave the institution the name of the Plum Creek Normal School. Only three students were enrolled the first day, but the school soon gained a large patronage and in the spring of 1875 had an enrollment of about 100, a large proportion of whom were teachers or those preparing to teach. This is not unlike our schools of today in the fact fact many are preparing for the teaching profes-sion.
The school was very unfavorably located from the standpoint of rail
road facilities but in natural beauty
and scenery, is could hardly be sur-passed. The building, which is now the church, stands nestled away among the hills, a very picturesque little spot, indeed. At the rear of the building is an ever flowing brook with a forest covered hillside in the back-ground. Other hillsides have been cleared of their forests and are under a state of cultivation.
After this meeting the Austins have two more campaigns before their vacation begins, one in Penn-sylvania and one in West Virginia. They will spend their vacation in Denver, Colorado, but will stop en-route for a few days visit at their Alma Mater.

Some men long
For the soothing touch
Of Lavender. cream or mauve.
But the ties I wear Must posses the glare.
Of a red hot kitchen stove The books I read
And the life I lead.
Are sensible, sane and mild,
I just hate spats, I wear clean hats.
But I want my neckties wild. Give me a wild tie, brother -One with a cosmic urge,
A tie that will swear,
And rip and tear,
When it sees my old blue serge_ Some folks say that a man's cravat Should only be seen. not heard.
But I want a tie
That will make men cry.
And render their vision blurred.
THE SPECTATOR
I yearn. I long
For a tie so strong
It will take two men to tie it.
If such there be,
Show it to me—
Whatever the price. I'll buy it.
Give me a wild tie brother.
One With a lot of sins;
A tie that will blaze. In a hectic maze Down where the vest begin*.
