Play's Success
"Playing the Game", a .smart
comedy drama in three acts, by
\Vilbur Braum, will be presented
by the Rural Life Club in the college auditorium Tuesday, May 22.
Rehearsals are progressing very
satisfactorily and the play will
be a finished production before
Tuesday, according to Miss Mary
Hanna, dramatic coach for the
Rural Department.
Theme Is Service
Service is the theme of the
play, with the leading characters
revealing the various types that
people may give to the community. "Playing the Game" is a
comedy of the sure-fire variety
with the necessary elements of
suspense and local color that
make .for a successful evening's
entertainment.
The cast of the production · ineludes a considerable amount of
excellent talent and was selected
entirely from students in the Department of Rural Education.
They are: Gail Wardell, a wealthy New York girl - Elizabeth
Brockbank; Julie, her maid Eleanor Marshall ; T h o r ib i n
Wright, her lawyer - Gerhardt
Holmes; Denton Vane, a novelist
- Robert Neale;

NUMBER OF APPLICATIONS INCREtA.SED BY 100%
.
We are inclined to believe that business conditions in general
are on the ''up-grade''. Likewise there is an exceptionally large
''turn-over'' in the teaching field this year. The number of appli-cations made by graduates this year increased almost a 100% over those
of last year, and ·certainly exceeds those of the past few years considerably. However, it is the experience of this year's graduate,
more so than at any other time in the life of these young people, that
experience in teaching is a qualification of extra-ordinary importance when seeking a position for next fall. Comparatively, the inexperienced graduate seems to be left out of the question of employment almost entirely, because ·o f the large number of experienced
tea:chers, many with Masters and few with Doctors degrees, applying
for the same positions.
Contracts for teaching positions at present do not exceed those
of a year ago, ho·wever it is anticipated that at least the same and
probably a larger percentage of graduates will be placed by the clo&j
of the school term. Consequently, a larger number of .graduates this
year would mean more placements, if the above anticipation is realized.
In the way of optimism we feel that placeme~ts 'vould naturally
"lag" !Somewhat ·behind this year, due to the numerous applications
for each position, tending to allow Boards of Education more time to
choose a good teacher to fill the vacancy. Another element which
may result in considerable importance later on is that almost .every'~he~·e teac~ers, who are holding .positions at the present time, are
~ngmng their contracts, under any and all conditions, to return next
fall; no ~ou_bt, for the reason of w,~nting "to rbe sure of a job". A
lavge maJOrity of these are on the look-out" for a more advanced
position, and naturally some o£ them will succeed in making such advancement, thereby leaving further openings at late dates for graduates.
"
It seems to _be the general attitude of graduating students to
. take what~ver JOb you can get". This consequently is a right attitu~e, that 1.s, for th~se wh'() are a·bsolutely sure they are unable to
contmue their educatiOn into the graduate field. But for those who

The handful of spectat{)rs Wh{)

last Thul'Sday saw a few sparks of
the old fire that carried the Purple
and Gold to a championship last
year. The Schwahn ''Bear Cats''
defeated the Miller "River Rats"
to end the IS'pring grid session.
Golds Score First
Miller's gold team scored first
when Marrs tackled Nugent behind the gMl line for two points.
The strong wind had pushed
Bucky 's men far into their own
territory and Nugent was attempting a punt. In the last quarter the
purple squad triumphed when
Broome blocked MeGuire's punt
and Bader fell on it for a touchdown.
Expect Bader Back
Bader, alt'hough not attending

semester. Many o.f the veterans
were unable to compete ·b ecause of
track or baseball but they'll get
plenty of chance next year, since
Coach Eddie Kotal has arranged
one of the toughest schedules ever

punch to cause this writer to think
that those boys are the hardest
