Canyon Pictures Shown in Fraser by Doctor Moore
Progress of Governmenta Exploring Expedition Is Portrayed by Film
Motion pictures of the 450-mile governmental exploring expedition through the Grand Canyon of Colorado, a mountain yesterday afternoon in Fraser Chapel. Dr. R. C. Moore, head of the geology department of the University, and the only geologist to make the trip, saw the pictures as they were shown.
Preliminary to the motion pictures,
some slaner tiles were shown, giving
the audience some "close-up"
spectacles. The slides are mounted
with their boots and other equipment.
The slides also included maps
and charts of the arrangements of
the rock beds and some colored scenes
of the activity of the world's
greatest canyon.
Boats' Transported in Trucks The motion pictures began with showing the transportation of the boats by truck to Lees's ferry, the boat then was moved to show every phase until they had banded at Needles' Calif.
Some of the more interesting things shown were the scenes in the calm waters at the outset, the battling of the rapids with some waves reaching the height of twenty feet, the dodging of rocks in the rapids, portages, the fighting between the raft and foot boats life, recreation and refreshment in the cool, spring-fed creeks, and the men carrying on their survey work.
Film Is Valuable
"When I was a youngster I read accounts of the expedition of Colonel Powell down the canyon in 1869," said Ms. Powell, who thrilled and dangers to be encountered on such a trip. You can well imagine the feeling I had last summer when the government asked me to explore and survey the canyon."
The picture is owned and was shown here through the courtesy of the United States Geographical Survey. It is an extremely valuable film, being the first in the series. The government has refused to sell the picture or the rights to release to any of the picture concerns. Fraser chapel was filled yesterday with students and townpeople during its showing. Every seat was filled by young people at the Moore's lecture and explanation added much to the interest.

Brandt Explains University Policy in Withdrawals
Fidelity Per Cent of Students Leaving School Did not Take Final Examinations
"Only 50 per cent of the 175 students who left school at the end of the first semester, left because of failure to meet the required standard of the University in the final examinations. The other 50 per cent withdrawn before the end of the comester due to illness or financial reasons and other reasons they were not even here to take the final examinations," said Dean J. G. Brandt, dean of college, this morning.
At mid-semester more than 500 students were below the passing mark. Letters were sent out to the parents of those students who were wiling, and also to the students themselves, showng them the endures and enraging them to do better work for the rest of the semester.
Four hundred thirteen out of the 500 made good. "This brings out clearly the point that I wish to make. Our program in regard to the student is entirely constructive and not destructive. We are interested in his welfare—are willing to help him and that he to make good," and Dean Brandt.
Majority Make Good
"I want particularly to emphasize the fact that at any time we are willing to study each individual case and to spend as much time as the case requires. We have studied these cases unless they are presented to us, and furthermore we have at the present time a committee of five men that considers petitions covering individual cases. There are two ways in which we meet through this method.
Case Must Have Merit
"It must be understood that the student have real merit, and that it is worthy of consideration. When the student has a genuine cause for failure we want him to petition or to call at the semester, and that he must not be done at the end of the semester but at an earlier date, then we have time to study the case and have the opportunity to the student," said Dean Brandt.
Dean Brantl said that the student must realize that a college day is a day of work, and not loafing. It costs the state a considerable sum for each student who attends the university, and he also pays the taxpayer that the student should make the best of his opportunity. This is shown by letters sent to Dean Brantl's office from various parts of the state. On the other hand Dean Brantl said, "we are not running an institution for lounges-azards and parties-azards with due consideration, make good we do not want them."
"The idea has gone out over the state that the University is pretty hard boiled about flunking students. I want to correct this idea," said Dean Brandt. "The reason for it is this," he continued, "all of our criticism has had the word automatic." The author argues that everybody is given the same chance and opportunity. There are no favorites.
"We spend a great deal of time in talking to students about their own individual cases, and no student can say that his case has not been thoroughly gone into, once he has presented it to us," said Brandt.
That interpretive dancing and clogging are fast growing in popularity, is shown by the fact that the enrollment in these classes was down 40% last year. Burto, head of the women's department of physical education.

ses. We meet at 3:30 p. m., and the advanc-

Parent-Teachers Meet Addressed by R. A. Schwegler
Twentieth Century Depend on School as Tenth Did on Church, Says Dean
As the tenth century dependd on the church for the satisfaction of its needs, the twentieth century deprived the Church from a strong Schlewier, dean of the School of Education, speaking this afternoon at the Parent-Teacher" Founders" Day calls.
"The school of today is markedly different from and better than that of the school of a century ago," said Dean Schwegler. "It has assumed the scientific attitude, and approaches its problems in terms of the discoveries which have been made by the psychologist, the physiologist, sociologist, physicist and a hundred other researchers, and material, its processes and its product with a precision undreamed of even fifty years ago.
Education Reveals Talents
"What may society fairly expect of this new type of education?"
"We may expect in the first place a marked amelioration of the lot of the individual. The round pog will more generally be opened. The latent talent will more often come to light of opportunity. The finer drives and motives will more generally be stimulated and satisfied. The right of the individual to the full development of his personality will more generally be achieved. There will be a longer lifespan, and a greater age will be greatly reduced even if it cannot be entirely eliminated.
"It the second place the rest of us, who constitute that intangible something we call 'society' will be much less likely to be perceived and of the individual will be better defined and adjusted." Human relationships will be dominated increase by intelligent insight. The exploitation of the weak by the strong will be modified, and democracy will actually come on earth as it now exists.
Problems Still to Be Solved
Problem Still to Be Solved
To secure the actual achievement of a goal, we need a continued progress of education. Many problems still remain to be solved.
The problem of physical education is old but it is a question more men and religious education with us as of yore, only more imperative—more pungent.
The riddle of vocational education is not yet solved high heaven clamors for its solution.
"The actual achievement of these tasks involves a wider recognition on the par with everyone that education requires in society, that its responsibilities in the last analysis cannot be delegated, and may never with safety be ignored. The safety of the home, the stability of the family, the sanity of society are at stake."
Stamp Collectors to Meet and Effect Organization
The stamp collectors of the University are making an effort to organize and hold meetings for the promotion of their hobby, according to "Stamps" Pearce, c28, who is trying to educate the student collectors together.
Ten or fifteen enthusiastic collectors are in school, according to Pearce, and several of the faculty are interested. A meeting will be held for them at 10 a.m. Pennsylvanian, Tennessee, and anyone who is interested should call Pearce at 1856.
The group will attempt an organization and plans to hold regular meetings thereafter. "An organization can exchange and buy stamp much more cheaply than can the individual," said Pearce.

Russian Brothers Present Concert to Large Audience
Cherniavsky Trio Praises "Pleasing Atmosphere;" Receive Generous Applause
More than 1000 persons were in Robinson gymnasium. Wednesday night toight he the Cherubini Tikri Team, which was dert der which they termed, "pleasing atmosphere," were generously applauded by the audience and answered
An ensemble composition by Beethoven opened the concert and followed with four encores. The playing of Leo at the pan, of Jan with his violin and Michel with his viola, led by the musicians with some difficulty that the musicians were permitted to leave and let Mischel entertain with the cello.
Jan Plays Piano Solo
Jan, the youngest, played three pieces by Chipin, interpersed by numerous encores, on the piano. At one time he found it necessary to become vicious, as he termed it, in order to present proper a part of Scherzo in B Minor. This he answered with one hand while continuing playing with the other, and nodded his head as if in disgust.
The technique of Leo in 'handling the bow of his violin to make a staccato run was watched almost with hew. He was encored several times. The finale of the program was "Tantale for Plamforte, Violin and Trumpet" at Bridge Ridge. This the cellist, Mr. Knox had the most difficult part.
Audience is Appreciative
After the concert Joon Chernivaky was called in, and he was the best and most appreciative group of persons that we have ever played for. The other day there was a game—oh, what do you call it, yes, basketball, just before our concert, the people did not quit their cheerfulness, they did the players. They even made so much noise that we could not hear the more silent parts of our playing. I had no trouble at all tonight, the ones who were seated in front of me were as silent while we were playing, but we knew that they were listening to us."
Mischel Cherninavsky said, "We played what we wanted to. Musicians play their best when they put their whole interest into their work. That was what we were doing. That was what we did. We know what we can do best and we know what we can do best and if we are not permitted to do so then we become somewhat indifferent."
