Owing to conflicting dates and a lack of open dates, the musical com­ pany You Tell Me Adamson met typescripts by Adamson and music by Virginia Arnold, which was to have been presented by the Wesley Hill BIG school on March 21 and 22 has been postponed until April. The exact dates in April have not yet been defti­ cted.

A new plan of football games will be inaugurated in the Big Ten next fall. The new schedule will play the reserves as well as the varsity in intramural games and the playoff ranges for the varsities to meet at one school and the reserves to meet at the other school, thus having a game at each school on each Saturdays, which will be expected that it will be introduced into other sports.
