Physical Ed. Plan Approved
New Four-Year Curriculum Aiming At Adequate Professional Training To Be Directed by Dr. F. C. Allen
The University Senate yesterday afternoon approved a four-year course in physical education, to be offered by the School of Education. It will be offered first in the fall of 1937, under the direction of Dr. Forrest C. Allen.
The curriculum, prepared by the School of Education, follows that of other schools in this region, notably Nebraska.
which offer such courses. It is intended to prepare the prospective coach or director of physical education with adequate professional training and at the same time maintain the academic standards of the University. The student is required to present 124 hours for graduation, the same as the requirements for the A.B. degree.
Courses in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences will include several pre-medic courses. The candidate for a degree must present 19 or more hours in education and 30 to 40 hours in physical education. Recognizing the fact that most high school coaches are required to teach some academic subject there may be a minor of at least 20 hours. The graduate will receive a degree of bachelor of science in education.
The Senate explained its action in establishing such a course by pointing out that students desiring to enter the coaching or physical education profession have previously had to crowd their training in order to attend these courses and senior years. Because of the teaching requirements of coaches, more time was required in the last two years of college to prepare for this. By taking four or five hours a semester back into the freshman and sophomore years, time is provided in the upper classes for needed courses in both physical education and academic subjects.
The schedule adopted by the Senate gives suggested curricula for both men and women for each of the eight semesters. Academic electives vary from three or four in the first semester to eight or nine for the last semester of the senior year.

Dorian Scott, Gamma Phi, went for a motor boat ride over the weekend and learned that standing up and moving around in the boat is a poor procedure. As she started to arise, the pilot made a turn and out of the boat went Dorian. After the rescue Dorian stepped out and did not mind getting wet but was plenty sore about losing her shoes.
Monday afternoon's soft-ball game between the Chi Omegas and Pi Phi's drew almost as large a crowd as did the varsity game. It was a peaceful game which was won by the Chi Omegas—the highlights of the game were the pitching of Maxine Woody, and the stopping of the line drives by Daisy Hoffman who used her feet instead of her hands.
Westerday being Law Day, the Law students were to have the afternoon off, but quite a number believed in true observance and took the whole day off. Shortly after noon, a number were seen conditioning themselves for the afternoon four ball games. After the fourth ball game, they enough to sit quietly through the dinner in the evening.
No doubt, many have noticed the beard raised by Hubert Coleman, a student instructor in Geology. It was learned yesterday that the beard will continue growing until after finals, and also, that the versatile Schiller Shore is planning to write a Passion Play—if enough others can be induced to raise bearias—and in the play, Coleman is to have the lead part of the mighty one.

Entron's Note: The Kavan retook the world on the obedience of iv-King George, who is known for his practice of bringing you tomorrow's news today. Bearing the association of King George by an anatomist or the interpuncted window returning to claim the throne, by the time this issue of the Kavan becomes full-fledged, it has become a fail-cult, like this.
Crowds Hail New Monarch Of England
The two-hour ceremony in Westminster Abbey began at 10:15 am. (4:15 am. CST) after an hour's parade through the streets of London in the traditional golden coach. The line of march had been lined since 1 a.m. with thousands of Englishmen and foreign visitors, singing and cheering with what approached hyseria as dawn crept over the city.
At 11:15 o'clock this morning (5:15 a.m. cST) the Archbishop of Canterbury placed the coronation crown on the head of George VI, investing him with divine right as George, by the grace of God, of Britain, Ireland, Scotland and England; he was the seas king, defender of the faith, and emperor of India.
Crowns Rest on Heads Of Royal Couple After Two-Hour Coronation Rites
The king and queen left Buckingham Palace at 9:30. Before the arders of his day of glory, King George sleep behind its spiked gates after having become involved with the government in a feud over his elder brother, the Duke of Windsor, who might have been riding in the golden coach in place of George but for the love of Wally Simpson. In an effort to efface the memory of the dramatic reign of the then Edward VIII, the government had opposed the decision of the royal family to send the king to the wedding of Windsor and Mrs. Simpson. The milling throngs outside the gates of the palace had apparently forgotten their former king.
The royal coach rolled down the streets of a city almost black with fog. Spectators stood 12 deep, straining to catch sight of the 41-year-old monarch and his comrades on the way to Westminster Abbey.
The revolution was brought 10 years closer by persons paying as high as $3,000 for apartments and businesses overlooking the line of march.
Call Seniors Together on Gift Memorial Will Be Taken Up Again Committee Says Objections to First Report Will Be Answered
The coronation ceremony included the entrance, the recognition, the oath, a communion service, the annotating, presentation of the spurs and sword, and the girding of the sword, the investiture "per annulumet baulum," crowning, presentation of the Holy Bible, the benediction, the inhonorization, the homage of the peers, the queen's coronation, "te deum laudamus," and the recess.
The committee will stick by its guns, a member said last night, and present again the same recommendations which the class heard at its first meeting. The choice of an air circulation system to be installed in the Memorial Union ballroom drew the most fire at the last meeting. "We can easily refute the objections heard at the last meeting," said the committee members. Objectors held that proper installation

was impossible, and that the system would be un satisfactory within a few years, and also that a circulating system would not lower the temperature enough to make the system worth its cost.
The class of '37 will again attempt to reach an agreement on the choice of this year's senior memorial in a meeting to be held tomorrow afternoon at 4:30 in Fraser theater.
The other proposal of the memorial committee at the previous meeting was the construction of additional dioramas for Dyche museum. This will also be presented again. In the event that the class accepts the proposal to give the dioramas to the museum, most of the estimated cost is to be invested in its treasury at the end of the year will be devoted to their construction.

Monts, France, May 11. —(UP)—The Duke of Windsor, an exile from the coronation festivities that might have been his, tonight placed an emerald engagement ring upon the finger of the American divorcee for whose love he save up his throne.
Edward and Mrs. Wallis Warfield strolled today in the armored grounds of the Chateau de Cande, looking ahead, not backwards, to the coronation in London tomorrow at which he will be the only missing member of British royalty, but to their early wedding. The engagement ring glistening on Mrs. Wallis was an old emerald balquette set in platinum. Emeralds are her favorite stones. She has several of them in her jewel case—one the gift of Edward while he was king.
Inquiry as to whether Edward would send a coronation message to his brother, King George VI to tomorrow brought an evasive reply from the Duke's spokesman, Hermann L. Rogers.
"If a message is sent, it will not he published."
Edward and his fancee, arranging their marriage for June 1 or June 2, will listen to the radio broadcast of the coronation in the large lounge room of the chateau's guesthouse—formerly the hunting lodge—with other guests at the Chateau de Caude.

Hendaye, France-Spanish Frontier, May 11—(UF) One-thousand loyalists were killed and 2,500 wounded in a retaliative which drove Basque defenders from Monts Bizerac, less than a month earlier, to a rebel communique said today.
Simultaneously part of Madrid was reported afame after an all-day bombardment by Rebel Gen. Francisco France's siege guns in the western hills. The fall of Monte Bizarzu followed 48 hours of continuous fighting, the communist said, and it marked the end of a lead to the outskirts of Bilbao at the mercy of Gen. Emilio Mola's rebel mercenaries.
Hundreds were killed on other active fronts. Scores died in Madrid during the bombardment. After 250 shells poured into the capital during the day, the bombardment was resumed late last night.
