Attend Program Given
in Marvin Hall
Assembly
The mining engineers won the prize offered for the presentation of the best stunt at all engineering schools. Two of them did a doodle bug scheme, by means of which they located many interesting things hidden from view of the audience. Second place was given to the one who played the role in the condition of "The Rambler Song."
The architects produced a modernized version of the balcony scene from "Romeo and Juliet," using an artistically-constructed "Corbin hall second story window scene" for the setting. Other stucco presented by the departmental organizations included an operation in silhouette upon a man's shoulders as he demonstrates to engineers; photography demonstration, chemicalicals; a monologue by Leigh Hunt, industrials; and a play by the electricals.
Each of the seven departments of the School of Engineering, was represented with a stunt, presented on a rudely constructed stage in the assembly room of Marvin肝 before an audience of several hundred students. The program was entirely student-centered and engineer under the leadership of Lester Allen, e'26, and Ralph Nichols, e'26.
Heaven and hell were used as the settings for the two scenes shown in the electrical's play, and the plot centered about eight professors from University of Utah who wereEngineering, who sought admittance at the "pearly gates," but were refused by St. Peter, who admonished them to apply for entrance at the door of the "lower regions." The playlet was presented in darkness, with the characters fully immersed on the stage by the members of the electrical department.
Community singing of "Saint Patrick Was an Engineer" and "The Rambler Song" was led by Prof. W. L. Brown. Several selections were played between stunts by the Engineer orchestra, and an impromptu address of welcome was made by Dean F. P. Walker.

The situation this year is parallel with that of 1923, and not a few of the rooters who make the trip to Lincoln will expect a Jayhawk victory, the same victory they have in the state since 1917, the last year in which Kansas defeated the Cormuskers.
Included in the group which will follow the Kannas team to Lincoln are the Jayhawk band of ninety-two pieces, and the fresh football man as a reward for duty in scrimmaging the varsity night after night.
