A poll will be conducted in this

April 25 as the G.A.A.—Troubadour
comedy, stated Elizabeth Studoluiker
and John Edwards, juniors, co-directors for the performance.
" T h e Fanner ill the Dell," written
and produced last April by Frances
and Elizabeth Studcbaker for the
Girls' Athletic association, was successful to the extent that the association contemplated producing it again
later last spring. The directors of
this year's production, sponsored
jointly by the G.A.A. and the Troubadours, men's musical organization, are
attempting to find out the extent of
student support for the return of the
last year's musical comedy.
Plans are progressing rapidly fur
an active varsity debate schedule for
the second semester, as is shown by
the announcement today of Mr. Louis
C. Jones, instructor in English and

THE CURTAIN FALLS
Another weekly aeries of entertainment came to an
end last week as the curtain fell on the final play of
the evening presentations of the advanced dramatic
class plays. T h e relatively small group of actors can
spend its evenings elsewhere and Playgoer may breathe
freely for a month or so.
Though the plays have been well advertised, produced,
and received by their faithful audience, the crop of
theatre-goers has always been small. Nevertheless, the
members of the class can be certain that their efforts
are appreciated, however small the number of 'nppreciators.'
The climax of State's theatre season is yet to come.
The final presentation of the advanced dramatics class
under the able direction of Miss Futtcrer ranks high
in the spring social calendar. I t marks a fitting end
to a j o b well done,

Duo to a revision in tlie commerce
curriculum taking effect next September, all those desiring a degree of
Bachelor of Science in Commerce will
be required to specialize in one of
three fields, according to Dr. Milton
G. Nelson, dean. These fields are:
(1) general commercial, (2) secretarial, (3) accounting.
Concerning the revision, Dean Nelson made the following statement:
" T h e 193S-1037 issue of the State
college catalog presents a complete
revision of tlie requirements for a
Bachelor of Science degree in Commerce. The commerce curriculum offered will enable students of State
college to meet the requirements which
the State of New York has established for certification of a teacher in
this field. It is probable that these
requirements will apply to Hie present
freshman, sophomore, and junior
classes."
This revision, therefore, will apply
to all classes, except the present
senior class. However, the curriculum
has been so arranged that even those

"Most ample power to read, teach,
and make literature anywhere in the
world", ("amplissimam potestatein
Litterns ubique gentium legendi
docendi faeiendi coiicessani"), is the
broad authority grunted to Dr. Harold
W. Thompson, professor of English,
by his degree of Doctor of Letters
from the University of Edinburgh.
This interesting Latin manuscript
carries with it more unique distinctions than merely being able " t o
make Literature" at any time, at
any place the holder of it may wish.
The Doctor of Letters "sheepskin"
entitles Dr, Thompson to vote in
Scottish elections for a member of
the English Parliament to represent
the University of Edinburgh, although
he is a native bom American citizen.
He has never exercised his franchise
privilege in Scotland.
As a result of his earning this
r a r e l y bestowed doctorate, Dr.
Thompson is a member of the Council of the University of Edinburgh.
In 1929, this foremost university of
Scotland awarded Dr. Thompson the
Doctor of Letters degree, which is
beyond a Doctor of Philosophy (the
highest degree offered in the United
States at the present time). The
D. Litt. degree is very seldom given,
and when the occasion does occur,
it is conferred only upon scholars of
literature or historians. One can
realize fully the scarcity of them
when be knows that Dr. Thompson
is tlie only American to be so singularly honored and is one out of
thirty-three people in the world to
hold the doctorate.
Dr. Thompson studied in Scotland
and England from 1925-1927 for
his D. Litt. degree. While doing
his research work for his book entitled " A Scottish Man of Feeling",
a history of Scotland in the Golden
Age of Burns anil Scott, Dr, Thompson uncovered a much soarched-fnr
manuscript of Henry Mackenzie
(1743-1831), one of 'the foremost
authors of his time. It .seems that
Mackenzie left to Sir Walter Scott
in his will a document, "Anecdotes
and Egotisms". Before Scott could
publish it, he died and the valuable
articles of Mackenzie were misplaced. After being carried to India
and then back to London, the "Anecdotes and Egotisms" were discovered
finally by Dr. Thompson whose intensive search was rewarded after
four months of work.
Dr. Thompson has been honored
by membership in several of Scotland 's learned societies. He is a
"Fellow of the Royal Society of
Edinburgh" (F.R.S.E.), which" lias
for its leading hereditary members
the King of England and the Prince
of Wales. Benjamin Franklin was
the first American to become a member of this society. Dr. Thompson is
also a "Fellow of the Society of Antiquarians of Scotland (F.S.A.S.)",
and a member of the "Scottish History Society", which is similar to
the American historical association.
" L I O N " OFFERS PRIZE
The State Linn is sponsoring a
"wisecrack contest" for the coming
issue, the winner of which will net
one carton of assorted Life Savers,
according to John Murphy, '37, business manager. Entries, which muBt
be original, should he in tlie editors'
hands by Wednesday.
Dr. A. R. Brubacher, president, announced today the members of the
State college faculty who will be on
leaves of absence for next year.
Those who will study abroad during their official leaves of absence
from faculty duties will be Miss M.
Annette Dobbin, instructor in French,
Miss Helen Halter, assistant professor
of social studies, and Miss Grace
Martin, instructor in art. Miss Madeline Fay Gilmour, assistant professor
of librarianship, will also be on leave
of absence.
