COURSE OF TRUE LOVE CORRUGATED AT OLATHE
By Paul Ernst
But They Both Lived Happily Ever After In This Student Play
BY PAUL ERSE
Olathe High School, April 14—
The seniors of the Olathe high school put on the best play Thursday, according to all reports, that any home talent has given Olathe for years. The Gem theater was so crowded that the play will be given again so that all those who could not get into the hall may have another chance. The proceeds were $102.
The story was that of a newly wed couple, and an aunt who persuaded the young bride to go with her to a pleasure resort. The following of the day included the husband in disguise and his jealousy was the plot of the play.
The cast follows:
ek Parker, a wholesale dry goods merchant. . Eliroy Tillotson Vivina, Parker's wife. Lenora Shinn William Torrence, Parker's partner. . Parker's父. Mildren Green, Vivian's叔. Elizabeth James James James, in love with Growler's niece. J. Howard Snapp Hebe Worth, Growler's niece. . . . .

Representatives from eight fraternities in the Pan-Hellenic met last week and made arrangements for the annual inter-fraternity debate to be held March 14 on the subject, "Resolved: That Kaiasson, named by a commission composed of one man, for each department."
Get a hair cut! Where? At the College Im Barber Shop.—Adv.
The affirmative debaters are, in the order in which they speak: Sig Alph, Karl Pinkard; Phi Gam, Randolph Kennedy; Alpha Tau, George Halliday; Phi Delt, Junius Oyche.

A cup is presented to the winner of the debate. Last year, John Brooks, an Alpha Tau, put up a cup for Inter-fraternity debaters with the provisions that it must be won by a fraternity three times before they may have final possession of it. Last year Allen Wilber for the Betas won it.

Participation in student activities at the Ohio State University that lie outside the regular curriculum will be regulated hereafter by faculty action. Scholarship will be the test which will determine a student's eligibility to hold office in any student organization or to have a position on any student publication board. If a student is delinquent either by a condition or failure in any of his studies, he is ineligible to hold any office or other position of trust or honor in any student organization. There are, at present ninety organizations, other than social anxiety, the students of this university, and the faculty believes that students often (if left unrestricted) devote time to these minor matters, which should be given to their studies. The same eligibility qualifications will be required of students holding office in these organizations that are required of students participating in intercollegiate athletics.
PITHECANTHROPUS
WILL VISIT CAMPUS
Circus Purchasing Agent Gets Contract For Huge Anthropoid
"Ten carloads of reptiles and animals will be shipped next week for our annual circus." This statement was made today by Dr. James Naismith, who has just returned from an extensive inspection trip through the reptile and animal districts of the east.
Naisimith was sent to New York last week by Chief Animal Trainer C. B. Root to pick out the choiceest and most venomous reptiles and amphibians from the eastern markets. Evidently the hardy byena will be held off until prepared, since the train load is being prepared for shipment now.
"Many of the beasts will probably die on leaving the land of their nativity," said the doctor, "but the exhibition will be given regardless."
Naismith asserts that fully half of the menagerie was never west of the Wabash river.
Among other leviathans, the shrewd agent obtained a thirty day's option on a Pithecanthropus, which requires a special car for transport.
The wild man will not travel with the other amphibians, but has informed the scribe that he expects to be here within a few days. This is an entirely different wild man from that used last year. Last year's man is still extant, but will be used only in case of emergency.
"I am as wild as I ever was," he stated in an interview yesterday, "but my teeth have been giving me a great deal of trouble."
Last year's pachyderm will be renovated and reproduced, since it is still in good condition. A feature of the show will be the cages of Culex pungens and Culex anopheles, caught in the maquis of New Jersey. The arrival of the animal train will be kent a secret.
tepe a step above.
Last year a child had convulsions and a freshman was seized with vertigo when the Rhinkdydinkosaurus was being loaded, and Trainer Root is going to take no chances this year.
is going to take no chances this year. Owing to uncertain weather conditions, the management has decided to hold the big show in Robinson Gymnasium, where last year's production was given. The local forecast is that the largest crowd ever assembled in Lawrence will witness the production given May 2 by the World's Amalgamated, Federated, and Combined Animal, Acrobat, and Reptile Shows.

FRENCH PLAY LIVELY
"L'Amiral" Successfully Staged In Spite Of Spicer's Whiskers
Considering the fact that several members of the cast had taken less than a year of French, the French play, "L'Amiral," given in the Gym. Saturday night by students of the department of Romance Language was a very successful comedy.
The play ran a lively two acts and was full of action from the start. Over 300 people attended. Admission was free.
Wayne Rideway in the title rok of "Le Captain" carried off the honors, ably assisted by Thomas Root as "Blasius" and Paul Schaefer as "Krelia". Maribelle McCill as the harsh harde man. Van Dame as the shrewish marbleer. Jacquemine as "Jacquemine" and Madeline Ashton as "Jacquemine" carried their parts well.
Wm. Spicer as "Flaglot" had an abundance of whiskers to be distinctly understood all the time, and Victor La Mer had but one chance to appear as "Un Hussard," but that didn't make any difference.
A feature of the evening was Miss Clara Powell's rendition of Gound's "Le Vallon," to which she responded with an encore.
Sigma Phi Sigma Initiates
The Sigma Phi Sigma gave its second degree to Paul Carlton, Maynard Heberling, M. O. Johnson, Lewis Park, and Frank Royse the first of the week.
