Delegates will be lodged at X elson Hall until Sunday, at which time the convention ends. Dr. Peabody To ~pt:ak Two excellent speakers have been engaged for the conference. Dr. Peabody, a professor at Ripon College, who is a retired mission .. ary from ·China, will relate· some of his experiences in the Orient and will present a brief outline of existing conditions in that country. Dr. Peabody has an excellent store of information and is reputed to be an excellent speaker. Miss Susan Chang, a foreign student from one of our American universities, will ·be the speruker at a banquet at Nelstm Hall Saturday evening. It should prove interesting to obtain a view of America from the standpoint of an Oriental. Varied Programs The program for F 'r iday includes registration from 1 to 3 oclock; Informal hour in the recreation room of Nelson Hall, 3-4; Afternoon tea in the Home Economics rooms to which the women of the school are invited, 4-5; dinner, 6; Dancing at Nelson Hall, 6 ::307 ::30; Opening meeting in the college auditorium, 7 :45; Corridor spreads and party, 9 :30; and So to bed, at 10:30. .

Sunday's program will inelude a course in council training and closing worship from 8 :30 until 10. and a socially prominent member of the younger set, with his heart's delight in tow, was wending his peaceful way on the banks of old Wisconsin. Because the Equinoxial storms had recently passed and the summer Solstice had not as yet set in, the couple eventually found them's elves in a spot where some form of navi·gation was much to be preferred to the more staid manner of locomotion known as walking. It Worked The First Time After pondeTing this impasse for a while, our resourceful young Lothari'o reached urp and seized upon the branch of a tree, and with a single Tarzan-like leap, s w u n g himself triumphantly a'c ross the watery barrier. Not to that she must resort to the same mannerr of locomotion. But alas and alack, the trusty branch, which held up so nolbly during the first flight, apparently had been weakened, and gave way in mid-voyage, and Jill c a m e tumbling after. Mud Bath Tests True Love Covered all over from head to foot, covered all over with mud, the :fair onr made her bedraggled way homeward. However, the situation was not without consolation, for by doing right by our Nell, Tarzan proved that his heart, though sorely tried, rang true. T 'was remarked that if he could love her then, he would love her forever. Moral: A bush in the air is worth two in the hand.

The article advocates the new ''Iris'' plan of pur·chasing the yearbook. · Responses secured from vario•us students by the Pointer Inquiring Reporter several months ago favored the tuition plan unanimously. The new plan would enable the Iris staff to sell the books to the students for $2 instead -of $3. More than this, it would give the staff a guaranteed subs•cription sale each year. The staff would know, almost to the penny, in advance just what ·budget it would have to work with. It would abolish those difficult and laborious subscription drives. It would enable a ·bigger and better annual at a smaller price. Naturally the only objection to the plan is the $1 increase per semester in tuition. But if there is any truth in what Guy Krumm says, "if you don't spend it one way it goes in another", the students who would invest their $1 toward an annual wou}d find more entertainment in paging through that investment in years to come than any dance at the Capital ·Or 20 glasses of Hamm 's special could possirbly affa:-d. Disregarding the pro and con opinions on the matter the logical action would be to submit the new plan to the student body for a popular vote. Student balloting would soon determine whether the plan is worthy of further consideration. 1 Some other prominent alumni whose success is a source of great gratification to this school.

One of them mentioned about the Irises she had. She said, ''Many of my pleasant memories are rejuvenated when I look at the annuals. My only regret is that I failed to buy an Iris my first year at College." Now then, think of all the students at school who are missing the- opportunity of subscribing to the Iris. The Iris is something permanent. Its value is not measured in a ma tcTial way after one is out 'of College, because it is then that one realizes the many merits an annual possesses. It is about the only means of refreshing our college days. If we would subscribe for our Iri.ses like we do the PointeT, paying '$1 at the heginning of each semester in our activity fee, everyone would have an Iris. Then too, we would be able to buy the annual for $2 whereas the present method costs us $3. Is nort tl)·i s a worthwhile project~ J,et 's all get back of this movement and put it across. Talk it up! ''A JUNIOR'' $6.85 excursion ticket - maybe he'll be telling ya' how he had to pay an Illinois tax on a nickel "hot dog" - perhaps he'll be chalk talking to his home-town fans ancl proving that the ''Chicago r~oop", after all, isn't a thrilling ride or circular in design. Jolly Train Ride A long train ride filled with fun and arction, and lack of sleep didn't retard the enthusiasm of the "pop-eyed" frolic seekers in the least. One glance at that famous sky-ride, the replica of Fort Dearborn, or the hall of science, ancl pep, eagerness and interest again had the excursionists on their toes. Taverns There Too The travel and transportation buildings, the various Japanese, Chinese, Italian, German, French and what have you concessions and buildings are only part of the millions of dollars of investment that are sprawled along three and one-half miles of Lake Michigan's shore line - not to mention the taverns. Spice To Tour A special tour around the ''high spots'' of Chicago in chartered busses and visits to the Shedd Aquarium and Field Museum added spice to the venture. Mr. Raymond M. Rightsell was in charge of the college excursion. The Question: Do you think that regular four year senior students should be admitted to the Junior Prom free? Fritz Cochrane : Sure they should. They should be the guests of the Junior class. That's what Proms are for. Marlowe Boyle: I don't kn()W. I don't think it's a good year for an exper1ment. It might work well in view of the purpose of the Junior Prom. Art Thompson: It is tradition that the Juniors give a farewell party for the Seniors. This is usually called the Junior Prom. When you sling a party for someone, you don't usually charge t~e person in whose honor the party IS given. Therefore we spell it '' gratis". Eddie Leuthold: No. The financial condition of the Junior class does not warrant this. Celestine Nuesse: No, I just don't think they should. We're paying a good deal for the orchestra, and the financial condition of the class does not ~ive much opportunity for experiments such as this. Cletus Collins: I think it's a good idea, but not in these times of depression. Bob Siegler: I think that theSenior men and their girls should. Otherwise no. Bill Herrick: No, I ·don't think they should be admitted free. Because of the depression I don't think we'd clear an'ything on the Pr()m. Viola Hotvedt: No, they should not get in free any more than the rest of them. Jim Turrish: I'm a Junior. I think they ought to pay. Vera Kramer: Sure. Give them a treat. Mary Louise Bowers: The J unior Prom is for the Seniors, isn't it~ Then they ought to get in free. Alta Stauffer: I think the J unior class should make the decision. Free admission for Seniors had been the precedent until last year when a change was made because of the financial situation. 'l'here are arguments pro and con. The Juniors are responsible and they have to do the· w.ork. Ijet them do as they think best. Senior Class Play Nets $74.88 Total cash receipts from the Senior Class Play, "It's The Girl", which was presented in the auditorium last week Tuesday and \V ednesday amounted to $241.46. The Senior class net profit totaled $7 4.88. Genera•l expenses amounted to $72.70. The producers' share of profits took $84.38. Rental of tuxedoes cost the class $9.50.

These two classes are expected to fight it out for victory, with the Juniors and Seniors far behind. The meet will give Cowch Kotal an opportmlity to see just what track talent he has m school. Quite a bit of new material is expected to be uncovered m these inter-class events. '' Frosh' ' Threaten Last year the Freshmen (now the Sophomores) won the event, and are determined to repeat again this year. The Seniors, though out of the runnin.g, have three possible first place men in Atwood, Baker,. and Thompson, while the Juniors have Peterson, Graney, and Fritsch for point winners. The Sophomore squad is paced by Lyman Scri1bner and Reichert., varsity men of last year. The Frosh aggregation is more of an unknown quantity, but lo'Oks to be the strongest m all-around point-getting ability.

Close Game It was a fast and well-played game, with the lead tilting back and forth between the two teams, The Delt 's began the scoring, but fell behind when the Phi Sigs collected three runs in the second inning. They crept up again, and went ahead in the seventh, but two runs for the winners put the game on ice. George l\Iaurer 's south-paw slants were effective for the Phi Sigs and Johnny Murat and Frank Klement twirled for the Chi Delts. Close· fielding and solid hitting featured the game.

That kitty ball game the Phi Sigs won from the Chi Delta last Friday afternoo·n was plenty ex· · c1tmg even to t h e Garf'le ld school teachers who had an awful time trying to educate their youngsters and keep ta'b of the score at the same time.
