ARE TO GIVE PLAY IN COMMUNITY BUILDING

Dramatic Art Class to Put It On Tuesday Just Before Thanksgiving

"Nine Till Six." the English play which the dramatic art Class is to pul on Tuesday. November 22. will be given at the community building, after all. The players have felt all along that the production was well worth giving downtown, but not un-til recently was It thought that it would be financially possible.

The audience will probably be ex-ceedingly surprised to see some of the students play parts so unlike themselves. Can you imagine Gene-vieve Crist as a matronly middle-aged proprietress. or Ada Brunk as her thirty-year-old daughter? Hope Nickel plays the part of a spinster stock-keeper. determined to get a taste of life, and Marjorie Brown is a saleswoman equally determined that no one shall have a good time Una Ring takes off a few years to become a child getting her first view of life while Oneita Boyer is learn-ing a new walk to play the part of the aristocratic Bridgit Penarth. Any-one who sees Florence Dresher for he first time will imagine that she a always a snippy little cat ready to quarrel with anyone. Odessa Christ nearly gets into a fight with her over a small word.

Can you picture Maxine Ferris as Una Ring's over-worked mother, or Audrey Groves as Oneita Boyer's par-ent? If you want to see beautiful gowns and a forecast of styles you will see them worn by Maxine Ring. Lois Edward, and Ruth Ihde, who are mannequins, Corinne Suter be-

comes a whiny and slightly pathetic packer, while Gladys Riddell is un-usual as a French woman.

The east practices daily under the

direction of Miss Della Lehman and . everyone fuels certain that consider-ing this and the unusual setting of a dress-shop, that the production will be a great success.

Thursday evening the Bulldogs journeyed to Newton and defeated Bethel College 41-6 In the feature attraction of the Graymaroons Homecoming

Except for the second quarter the game was entirely it McPherson af-fair. The Bulldogs made several long runs during the game and gain-

ed 164 yards from scrimmage to a total of for Bethel. Bethel's only effective way of gaining ground was through the air. The Graymaroons attempted 17 passes and gained 79 yards by means of them.

The Bethel touchdown time In the second quarter while the Bulldogs were playing rather poor football. Two nice passes from Norris to Ken-nison each twenty yards, accounted for the touchdown. McPherson was weak both on offense and defense during the second quarter.

At the start of the game McPher-son kicked off and the Bethel man was downed on his own 7-yard line. Bethel punted out and Johnston returned to the thirty-four yard line. From there it took just three plays to score the first McPherson touch-down. Wiggins going the last twenty-one yards on an end run. Wiggins kicked the extra point.

Again McPherson kicked to Bethel and then held them hi their tracks after a nice return of the kickoff.

. Taking the ball about on their own thirty-five yard line the Bulldogs be-gan another touchdown march. Several long gains by Captain Zinn with good support from the rest of the backfield put the ball in scoring po-sition and Johnston took it over. Zinn missed the try for point.

The second period saw the Bull-dogs outplayed by the Bethelites during most of the quarter. Zinn continued to make some nice runs, but the Bulldogs never seriously threatened to score. Bethel opened

ing against the Bulldogs. They even went through the McPherson line a few times for some good gains during this quarter. A pass from Nor-ris to Kennison gained twenty yards for Bethel. and on the very next play another pass from Norris to Kenni-son gained another twenty yards, and Kennison raced the remaining 15 yards to the goal. The try for

President V. F. Schwalm spoke to the student body In chapel, Friday. November 4. He spoke of how, as history has been made, civilizations have risen, flourished, and then fall-en. Examples of such civilizations include Egypt. Babylonia. Rome and Greece.

It is said by some that the western world or civilization has reached its climbs and is now declining. The question is—is America on the same road as Athens, Rome end other fallen empires?

Dr. Schwalm likened five factors from Roman history to modern day The likenesses include race suicide the abandonment of agriculture in the outlying provinces, the burden Of taxes and wealth of office holders. the needy Romans crying for food, and the corruption present in poli-tics and other fields... Rome fell— will the American civilization? How-ever, three factors are present today that Rome did not have. They are scientific knowledge which betters human beings, the knowledge of gov-ernment, and the Influence of the Christian Church which will save or fall to save our civilizations. The vit al change will have to be brought about a religious movement.

ATHLETIC CLUB AFFAIR IS MARVELOUS SUCCESS

The carnival and cakewalk spon-sored by the W. A. A. and M Club Friday night drew a large crowd. The booths, and especially the talented hawkers made the affair close-ly resemble a real carnival.

The booths included a fortune-teller, the Seven Wonders of the World, a bodiless woman, a stand for candy and confetti a place for throwing balls at nigger babies and a voting booth where votes for the most popular girl and the man with the biggest feet were given for each purchase. At the end of the evening the winners were announced to be Lois Lackey and Coach Binford.

Besides the booths, one corner was marked off for the cakewalk, where several couples received cake and ice cream during the evening: The cake-walks were continuous, one following upon another as soon as a crowd large enough was gathered. They marched around to music the couples being in the two lucky spots when the music ended receiving the rewards.

The evening was brought to a close with a short and varied program consisting of a dramatized Joke by Esther Pote and Milton Early: a humorous reading by Ada Brunk: a short play including of the cast Lois Edwards. Newell Wine, Odessa Crist, Guy Hayes. and Charles Aus-tin: an instrumental quartet made up of Guy Hayes. Raymond Tice. Delbert Kelly, and Newell Wine; and group singing led by Archio Lindholm. The numbers were announced, or rather shouted by Ward Williams seated on the piano.

Everyone went home after a hilar-ious time covered with confetti, but otherwise happy

INTERNATIONAL CLUB PLANNING PROGRAM

Last Thursday evening the Chem-istry Society held its regular meet-ing at 6:30 In the absence of the

vice-president, Hope Nickel. Letter Lewis presided. He introduced Dr. J. W. Hershey to the audience, explaining that his subject would be ‘‘Synthetic Atmosphere". the field In which Dr. Hershey has conducted experimentation and research for twelve years here at McPherson Col-lege.

Dr. Hershey explained that he en tered this research primarily to de termine how long animal life could live in pure oxygen. After satisfying himself that life could not exist In pure oxygen for any length of time other experiments readily suggested themselves, such as, the best proportion of nitrogen and oxygen condu-cive to best health, what gas can be substituted for nitrogen an the inert part of the air, what effect do the rare gases have on life etc. These experiments have covered the better part of ten years, and are by no means completed.

A motion picture and illustrated slides were used by Dr. Hershey to make parts of his lecture clear. There were forty persons In at-

Mr. Snyder's avocation is whistling and he gave Imitations of all the common birds of Kansas Including the rooster and the hen. He Imitated a dog fight, a Swedish coocoo, a cow. the Missouri Pacific doodlebug, steam engine, lightning And finally

BETTER CONCENTRATION TAKES LESS TIKE

Probably the greatest difficulty the college student experiences is the inability to concentrate on the task at hand. Distractions of all sorts take their toll from the student's hours for study. It Is not necessary to spend long hours at books, disregarding all other prominent activities. It Is even unnecessary to study In chapel If one keeps one thing In mind, namely, concentration. When you study make It count. Don't sit at your desk, look at a book, and anticipate tomorrow. Live for the time being and concentrate upon your work. The result will be two-fold—more leisure time and wider interests—L. H.

SILENCE IN THE LIBRARY

Instinctively human beings are gregarious: so perhaps that is the reason the library is such a popular meeting place for college students, in fact, the library is really a hilarious place at times; especially at nights when one has to arrive early to obtain a seat Is this so. It is then that one bears a stifled giggle over at the round table In the west room. Chairs are pushed noisily back and forth on the floor, Private, half-whispered and half-spoken conversations are held Dates are made and broken. Funny papers are read and discussed. At such times the casual observer might conclude that the chief aim of the library is to provide a place of social recreation for the students of McPherson College,

Of course such a state of affairs makes it almost impossible for any normal student to study thoughtfully and carefully. The noise-maker does not realize that be owes It to himself and to others to maintain silence while he is In the library.

In the first place a student Is harming himself as well as others when he goes Into the library with the sole purpose of having a merry time and a lot of fun. He Is developing a quality of selfishness, for he is usually thinking only of himself when be disregards the rights and privileges of others by not abiding by the rule for silence in the library. Then, too, when be is doing a lot of talking, laughing, and whispering be Is not getting any work done himself. In this way, again, the noise-maker Is the loser. A student owes it to himself to observe silence while In the library.

Not only is he harming himself but he is also hindering others In their search for knowledge. It is a well-known fact that a person can not do two things well at the same time. This means that a student can not perform the role of a rapt listener to a noisy conversation and at the same time do any effective studying. Other associates In the study room are also annoyed by the agitation of the thoughtless student. The student owes it to others to maintain silence In the library.

In order to help students realize, that silence in of absolute necessity placards and mottoes carrying out the silence idea might be distributed on the tables in the library, and one might also be placed on the librarian's desk. Then to accomodate those students who find It necessary to work and talk together a basement room might be set aside for their use. It might be a good Idea to deduct at least one half honor point from a student's record after the librarian has notified a person of unnecessary noise for the fourth time. This procedure would probably emphasize the fact that silence is one of the essential rules of the library.

In order that character of the highest type may he developed and in order that mors work may be accomplished the silence rule of the library should be stringently enforced and observed.—Submitted.

Y. W. DISCUSSES FOLLY OF MAKING EXCUSES

Sponsors Every Year Writing of Appreciation Notes

"Don’t make excuses make good". Lois Shelley, Helen Webber, and Corinne Sutter discussed this topic In Y. W. C. A. yesterday morning. When you have a problem to face, face It Immediately—don’t make ex-cuses. Face the facts and do your best.

It is now time to begin writing appreciation notes to the girls who have helped you over some rough spots. The Y. W. C. A, sponsors a program of this kind each year. Each girl on the campus who tell truly grateful for the help of another is privileged to write a note to that girl and drop It into a box for that purpose in the Y. W. room. These notes will be distributed just before Thanksgiving.

Tuesday morning. The girls were either timid, bashful, or were afraid of the teacher and refused to participate with the boys In carrying out their Idea. Professor Blair's remark was. "I thought you might say, 'Beat Roosevelt' ",

Say, and did Pauls get excited down at the Bethel game? At least he had a big broad smile on his face

and we wonder if the little Dutch girl from his home town, who was on the side-line, had anything to do with It.

There certainly were a lot of men going around In a dare yesterday— rather mumbling to themselves and taring unseeingly into space. And the women seem to have caught It today. Could it be that they are go-ing out for debate, and tryouts are coming off?

"Benchy" Lichty sorta walked away with Sam Stoner’s girl at the cake walk the other night. Benchy and Gladys Riddell were two of the lucky four to receive ice cream and cake while Sam had to stand by and watch them eat.

Miss Velma Keller was the guest of Miss Pearl Walker Sunday, Miss Keller attended school here the two years previous to this.

Othetta Clark of Oklahoma City was seen on the campus Monday. She attended school hero last year.

Among the many former Students who visited the campus Friday were Mrs. Lloyd Diggs (Vera Flora), Dor-is Ballard, Francis Berkebile, and Ruth Blah. Most of these were on their way to teachers' meetings.

Several students left Friday with Vernon Rhoades for their homes in and around Rocky Ford and Wiley. Colorado. and returned Monday. They were Everett Fasnacht, Ana Heckman, Zeita Oxley, and Elizabeth and Jo Wagoner.

Mrs. Charles Dillon, formerly Miss Pern Handke. visited friends here on Friday. She attended McPherson College last year.

Have you noticed how longingly Oneita Boyer looks at the food down In the dining room; she has to take five pounds off her hips before the play. Moral Offer candy to her now. and you'll get to eat It yourself.

In chapel Monday, Paul Booz was taken for one of the college student's little brother visiting school.

At Newton, Thursday night, three girls were wrapped in one blanket. Someone came up behind them and sold, "Hello, Blair" before he got close enough to see that the blanket held three instead of one. However, our educational prof did not seem to feel very much hurt, for he only said that the girls should feel complimented,

My! My! My! What is this institution coming to? One of the older and stabler pedagogues of the college was heard Thursday night to offer to bet a nickel on a kick!

"How many beans In this pint jar? Just a penny a guess, folks." That was Carpy's job at the W. A. A.-M. club carnival, Paul Nelson was the lucky man with a guess of 482. There were 480 In the Jar.

strange. Isn't it? The bodiless woman's head looked just like Elizabeth Bowman's cranium. But ask anybody present and they will tell you they saw Beth after the bodiless woman attraction had closed and she was perfectly normal!

Cleason Minter and Gerald Custer are quite lucky at cake walking. They walked twice and received refreshments the same number of times.

Do you suppose Paul Booz realizes he would not be so short If he did not turn under so much at the bottom?

A question that was agitating the minds of those at "Aftermath of Hallowe'en Friday night was how many pounds Eddy, the football player, would lose. His Job was to pick up the ‘'nigger" dolls as they were knocked down. One would think It would be quite reducing—all the bending he had to do.

Harvey Shank singing baritone? And after all these years of skyscraper warbling? But Voran Is supposed to know his harmony when it comes to picking a quartet.

Or do you suppose Harvey is really as young as he looks and his voice has been changing?

Down at the Bulldog-Bethel game Thursday night, nearly every McPherson rooter offered his services as cheerleader. At one time seven pepsters were leading nearly an equal number of, "yellers."

Hobart Hughey vied with Coach Binford for the prize for the gentleman having the longest feet at the carnival Friday night. Evidently the football mentor had the longer feet as he got the prize, a pair of hose.

Now that the election la over, what will the profs find to talk about between classes and during chapel?

During the candle-blowing play at the carnival the actors became amused at something, and laughed, there-by distorting their mouths from their, various,, already distorted positions,' (The play was a "mouthy" one any-

He was watching the search-light In Hutchinson when Wilbur Yoder showed him what a strong beam the powerful spot-light on his car would throw, Prof. Voran said that it would make aeroplane pilots go crazy If he would turn that on, for they would think the landing field was moving across country.

LeNora Johnson would room on third floor, do that she would have to be helped up all those stairs when she hurt her knee yesterday.

'Beat Ottawa" was the slogan by Which the boys In the elementary methods class answered to roll call

Next Sunday the theme will be "How to Make a Living' This is a practical study and one which the men can hardly afford to miss, espe- cially under the leadership of Dean Mohler, with a successful business man, Earl Reed, acting as assistant.

GANGWAY OTTAWA!

We're Headed For Conference Championship

McPherson Bulldogs vs. Ottawa University

Probable Starting Lineup

The undefeated conference-leading Ottawa Braves will clash with the Bulldogs at the McPherson Athletic Park, Friday at 2:30 in the feature attraction of the McPherson College annual Homecoming celebration, Ottawa, with its best team for many years has been going strong all season and has defeated some of the stronger teams of the state. The Ot-

tawa aggregation has 12 letterman and some other men with weight and experience. The Braves are coached by Charles Dee Erickson who is mak-ing a name for himself In his second your with the Ottawa school Jack Knapper, Ottawa captain and triple threat limit has been playing a great game all season. He weighs 183 pounds and was named on the all-conference team last season. Les-lie Edmonds, popular sports writer and nationally known official, says that with a little more speed Knap-per would be the greatest all-around Player of any small college in the Middle West He adds further that maybe he is anyway.

Ottawa has several other men with outstanding reputations Walters is considered one of the best centers in the conference. being especially good on the defense. Haley 210 pound freshman guard and Bill Wilkins are linemen who are considered very dangerous to opposing backs.

With this and all the rest that Ottawa has, the Bulldogs are set to beat the Braves. The Bulldogs did it last year by a score of 11-6 when they were doped to lose by four or five touch-downs. Coach Binford and the team fully realize that Ottawa is out for revenge, but they have set their minds to defeat Ottawa and get back in the running for the con-ference championship.

The two teams are practically even as to weight with each team averag-ing approximately 178 pounds to the man according to the coaches' pro-bable starting line-ups. On paper the Ottawa team has the dope over the Bulldogs, but In determination to win the local team has a decided ad-vantage.

Captain Zinn and his Bulldog mates are anxious to tangle with the conference leaders and are deter-mined to give them a defeat. The Bulldogs have found their scoring power and want to demonstrate this to a Kansas conference foe, to the Homecoming crowd, and the McPherson sport faction.

This conference leading Ottawa Braves are coming to McPherson this week with the boast that they are going to show McPherson how to play football. After defeating Kan-sas Wesleyan Ottawa made the prediction that they must then show McPherson how the game is played.

The team seems to be in good con-dition physically for this coming game and the spirit within the squad Is at Its height. The squad has been pointing for this game and at last they are all ready for the Ottawa Braves.

Bethany again met defeat and this time It was to the Friends University Quakers. The score was 13-0 and It was the Swedes' Homecoming. We hear that Bethany is all set for theBulldogs on Thanksgiving Day

The Bulldogs flashed their best offense of the season against Bethel last Thursday night. It was Bethels’ Homecoming game, but at times it looked like a track meet for McPherson. McPherson gained more than a quarter of mile from scrimmage against the Graymaroons

. Captain Zinn did sonic nice ball-lugging against Bethel. He made one forty-eight yard run and a thir-ty-eight yard run. These were his two longest gains from scrimmage. He made several Other nice gains including his twenty yard run through the line for a touchdown. Zinn is a great ball carrier and seems to by very hard to stop

Both of these men are regulars In the McPherson line-up. Wine got into the Bethel game for a part of one quarter, but Carpenter was not able to play at all.

The entire line played good football against Bethel, and In fact the whole team did for three quarters of the game. The line was making nice holes and as a result everyone of the starting backfield scored at least one

Flora, and Moore lost to team IV by a five point margin. 23 to 28. in a no less hard-fought game. Team IV is captained by Charles Austin and backed by Gott-‘ mann. Tice, Ogden Sherfy.

McPherson continued with its of-fensive power during the last quarter and many substitutes catered the game. Bethel continued to pass, but the McPherson secondary defense was knocking most of the passes to the ground, Zinn intercepted one of these passes and galloped forty-two yards down the fluid before he was tackled. All the backfield took turns carrying the ball and Captain Zinn covered the last 20 yards through the line for the touchdown. Wiggins'

The Bulldogs were not satisfied with that score and after holding the Graymaroons they began another march to the goal. Many substitutes were entering the game now and all were showing up well. Several nice gains with the entire backfield fea-turing put the ball on the 4-yard line and Johnston went through the line for the counter, and Wiggins made his place-kick good for the extra point.
