STUDENTS WRITE ACT FOR VOD-VIL Novel Musical Comedy to Make Appearance TRYOUT DATES GIVEN All Urged to Compete for Places on Cast A musical comedy which promises to be of unusual excellence is now being prepared for the Junior Vod Vil by a group of students whose names are being withheld until a later date. It is reported that the production will be a live comedy graced with several new and orig inal selections, which will undoub tedly be accepted with enthusiasm by the University students. Character Roles Available Mrs. Lyle Palmer (Imogene Litcher), who composed the music and wrote the lines for the musi cal comedies for the past two years, is not on the campus this year. Others who feel that the musical comedy is one of the essential fea tures of the Vod-Vil, are working diligently to produce a novel and appropriate number this year. A day will be set aside during the week of the regular Junior Vod Vil tryouts, in which the students who feel that they are capable of handling stage work, will be re viewed by the tryout judges and will be selected for the various roles in the chorus and character work. Tryout Dates Scheduled It is urged that all students try out for this musical comedy, as it will offer excellent opportunity to gain experience in this line and to make their talent available for the selection of the cast. Any of those who feel that they have the talent but perhaps not the “looks,” should not be timorous about attending the “show-off” as there are a number of unusually good character bits which will require good acting, re gardless of pulchritude. The week of February 16 has been set aside by the committee in charge as the time for the Junior Vod-Vil tryouts. The day for the musical comedy tryouts will be an nounced later. McKINDREE CO-EDS GIVE IDEAS ON COLLEGE MEN McKindree College.—Have you shiny hair? Do you wear bell-bot tom trousers? Can you cover the ground with man-like strides with out seeming to hurry? Have you a mustache? If you possess these qualifications you are an ideal man in the eyes of the co-eds of this college. The traits most condemned were cursing and not knowing how to act in public. All these requi sites of the collegiate Beau Brum mel were revealed in a question naire circulated on the campus here last week. BEULAH SMITH RECOVERING FROM CHOCOLATE BURNS Beulah Smith, sophomore in the school of journalism, was severely burned Tuesday night at the V. W. C. A. bungalow. A contained of hot chocolate was sitting on a stove, with the lid tightly clamped on the container. As Miss Smith was pas sing, the steam, because of the high pressure it had -developed, pushed the lid off. The scalding hot chocolate covered her face, neck, and left hand. Miss Smith is now recovering in the infirmary. KATHERINE SLADE TAKES POSITION AS SECRETARY Miss G. R. Page, who has been secretary at the appointment bur eau of education, since last fall, recently resigned, and will leave in about a month for California where she will visit for a time. Miss Katherine Slade, who has been em ployed in the administration office during the past two and one half years, and who has also been sec retary to L. H. Johnson, comptrol ler of the University, will be the new bureau secretary. STUDENTS WRITE MILLIONS OF WORDS DURING QUIZZES University of Oklahoma.—Judg ing from the number of quiz books' sold by the book exchange, and al lowing only 60 words to the page, it is estimated that 720.000,000 words are written in quizzes each semes ter. That many words would fill 7,200 average size novels. One man writing in long-hand ten hours a day, would be more than 200 years old before rfie couliT accomplish so much. PATRONIZE EMERALD ADVERTISERS Volume Printed in 1863 Gives Timely Talks Writer Expresses Ideas On Education Tucked away behind a row of formidable Latin dictionaries in the library vault is an insignificant looking little old volume, with the front cover torn off, revealing the rather intriguing title, “Of Educa tion, Especially of Young Gentle men.” The author’s name is not visible on the title, but at the bot tom of the page is the inscription: “Printed at the Theatre for Amos Curteyne, Ann. 1683.” A few quotations from this vol ume illustrate the writer’s attitude toward topics of that day that are still discussed. For example: “Dancing is a moderate exercise, so much whereof is to be learned as may give a good and graceful motion of the body, but there is nothing which doth more dissipate the powers of the spirit, nor more enervate the forces of the Soul, than the ravishing harmony, the continual agitation of the body and the charms of the ladies’ conver sation.” Mencken himself might have said this: “Delighting in gallantry com monly portends lowness and weak ness in spirit, as have those women who have nothing but their outsides to entitle them to humanity.” The one-sided athlete is analyzed: “Some there are who are lazy and unindustrious to study, yet very active and sprightly in bodily exer cises; these many times are fitter for other employments than learn ing.” And again: “Wisdom is made to rule, and yet magistrates generally are readier to make use of their power than their wisdom, of their will than reason.” This book, which contains much of what is said and done today, was written 250 years ago.
