Journey's End Is Dictinct Triumph Of College Plays Interpretation Of Characters Make Decided Hit With Audience EXCELLENT CAST DIRECTED BY BENDER Pearce, Murphy, Lawrence, and Martin Are Outstand ing Players (By Elene Weeks) To take a play which has created a marked furore among the theatrical circles of London and New York, which has occasioned an unusually high pitch of enthusiasm among hard- ened critics and more or less uncritical road audiences alike, and which was produced by an all-English cast with almost perfect technique and under- standing, and to present such a play with an amateur cast is, to say the least, an underaking. And to produce "Journey's End" with the sympathy, sincerity, and finish which the Little Country Theatre Players, under the direction of A. G. Arvold and Miss Alice Bender produced it last Wed- nesday night is a distinct triumph. Too much cannot be said for the casting and general production of the play. Slightly faulty as all amateur productions must be as to minor details, the grasp of the beauty and feeling of the lines, the creation of an atmosphere difficult to express, the use of the tempo which is exceptionally important to most plays and especially to this one, were far above the average of non-profes- sional productions. Pearce Outstanding Ronald Pearce, as Captain Stan- hope, did his usual good work, im- proving as the play progressed. The three other outstanding players were Bill Murphy, who did in spirit, as beautiful a piece of interpretation as young Raleigh, the lad from school who carries his illusions and his idea of "playing cricket" to the front only to go West in a burst of youthful daring, as the original English player. He had poise, strength, and sincerity. Don Lawrence, playing Major Osborne, the schoolmaster who leaves his children and garden and wife to go to the front, whom all the soldiers call "Uncle", and who, know- ing that he must probably never come back from the last attack at dawn, takes his last three minutes before they go over the top to cheer young Raleigh with nonsense rhymes from Alice in Wonderland, created a lovely character, while Frederick Martin, as the young Hibbert who shows the white feather, becomes a nervous wreck, but finally triumphs over himself, did a truly remarkable piece of work. The remainder of the cast was: Ward McCabe, Clyde Townsend, Les- ter Wyman, Harry Landa, Morris Erickson and Roderick McMillen. It was one of the finest productions which has ever been put on the Little Country Theatre stage, and it must be of great satisfaction to the personnel and directors of the play, to have pro- duced so beautiful a drama as "Jour- ney's End" with so much justice. Dan Baillie Accepts Position With Squibb Dan Baillie left Fargo last week on a trip to New York City to accept a position offered him by E. R. Squibbs & Son. He will attend school the first three months which is under the supervision of the company. This consists of courses in Salesmanship, New and Old drug products and a foundation for work for this drug house. E. R. Squibbs & Son is a very large drug concern and the opportunity of- fered to Dan Baillie was sought by many druggists in the Northwest. Dan Baillie graduated from the school of Pharmacy last spring and passed the State Board at the same time. For the past few months he has been working at the Daoctah Drug Co. in this city. He is a mem- ber of Kappa Psi fraternity. 100% il ' Light Tan Beaver to ALPAC A and Grey Pe OCoats "FARGO'S FINEST STORE FOR MEN" NORTH DAKOTA STATE COLLEGE THE SPECTRUM OFFICIAL PUBLICATION VOLUME X LVI.

LITERARY DREAMS OF AN ARCHITECT

A bunch of boys were whooping it up in the d-N. D. drafting room. The kid that was drumming his lamp

shade Was hitting a jag-time tune, While back of his desk with a sober

face Sat dang'rous Professor Huntoon. And watching 'his luck were were the

rest of us guys; The reason I'll tell you soon.

While out of the sky to a college below

And into the building so. dear There stumbled a Freshman green

from the Sticks, Dog-dirty and loaded for beer. He looked like a guy with a foot in

the mud And nearly the strength of a cow; He walked to the desk at the end of

the hall And stood there knitting his brow.

We know there are men that grind their teeth,

And we know they would do no harm, And such was he, and he looked to me Like a man who had lived on a farm. With a face most' hair, and a dreary

stare Of a dog whose day is done. And I could see as he looked at me That he was' a farmer's son. I got to figuring what h ewas, And wishing to find out soon I turned my head, and there watching

him Was dang'rous Professor Huntoon.

His eyes went rubbering 'round the MOM

And he seemed in a sort of a daze Till at last d drafting board Fell in his wandering gaze. The architect was having a drink, There was no one else on the stool; So the Freshman stumbles across' the

room And flops down there like a fool. His homemade shirt was glazed with

dirt, As he extended n dirty paw , Then he clutched the pen with his

dirty hand - - My God, that man. could draw!

Were you ever out in the Great Alone When the moon was awful clear And you hadn't had a drop to drink, Not even a glass of beer? I felt that way, but sorry to say The reason I do not know Why under the sun that guy should

come To show that we were so low.

The guy he turned, and his eyes they burned.

I watched him, and there I saw His homemade shirt was glazed with

dirt - And one large dirty paw! Then his lips went in, in a sort of a

grin; He spoke in the voice of a man, And "Boys", says he, "you don't know

me,

And none of you care a damn; But I can draw with this dirty paw, And also connect with your ear. If you don't believe me, step up and

see. I'll set you back 'bout a year."

Enough was said, so I ducked my head,

And all was quiet in the room. So soon that guy with the dirty eye Started to whistle a tune, As he walked through the door I

could see him no more, But still I could hear him rave, "That course isn't fit for a jockey to

hit; It's Science and Lit that I crave!"

as possible toward the non-frater-nity student as a fraternity does for its members. It wants to develope a spirit of co.-operation between Greek letter and non Greek letter students and bridge the gap between them.

With this view in mind the Club entered into the Home Coming float display, winning first honorable men-tion. It is now putting an entry in the Bison Brevities and again reserv-ing space in the Bison Annual. The best interests of good old North Da-kota are the prime factors about which its ,activities are centered. The Club feels from its first year's ex-perience that there is not only a need and a place for such an organization on the campus but that it has a wide field with great possibilities, in the development of which we sincerely hope that we have your good will and support.

MEMBER NORTH CENTRAL PRESS ASSOCIATION

STUDENT-FACULTY CLUB Last week the Student-Faculty club

convened for the first meeting of the year. The club has for its purpose the investigation of vital campus problems. The six faculty members and the six students represented on the committee comprise a group well equipped to determine the problems which North Dakota State now faces.

The purpose of the organization at the present time is to discover the situations that the institution has to meet rather than to solve the diffi-culies. Professor Jonn Doerr at the head of the organization will submit the report of the committee to the national Students and Faculty com-mittee that will meet at Detroit dur-ing the Christmas holidays. Schools in every state in the Union are en-rolled in this organization, and an effort is being made to work out so-lutions to campus institutions.

The committee is now conducting research. In the future the organi-zation may take on a new form. It may become a cooperative influence of the college. We see great possi-bilities for the organization.

WHAT IS THE COSMOPOLITAN CLUB?

In answer to questions from stu-dents and faculty alike, I shall en-deavor to clarify the confused infor-mation giving rise to this question.

Almost every one has, at least, a vague idea of the composition of the club, viz; that it is made up entirely of non-fraternity students, but, aside from this, aught else, seems to be clearly defined.

The Club was founded last year by Joseph Paulson, who later became the first president. It represents an at-tempt on the part of the non-frater-nity students to organize and act col-lectively on the problems and situa-tions of the campus, and in a measure to make up for some of the benefits lost by not affiliating with a frater-nity or sorority.

The membership is, of necessity, a mixed one, both men and women be-ing admitted. Once a member, how-ever, the non-fraternity student need not think himself ineligible for fra-ternal rushing. Many of the group are unable, at the present time to afford the added expense of a fra-ternity or sorority but may do so some time in the future when their limited finances do not exclude this feature of college life. Such was the case with twenty per cent of last year's members who now belong to fraternal organizations.

Sub-dividing the purpose of the Club it falls into three parts; social, educational and political. In connec-tion with the first, weekly Monday evening meetings are held in the Y. M. C. A. Here group discussions are carried on and social contacts made. Two dances are held a term to which all members and their partners, whether fraternal or otherwise, are invited. The dances serve to mix the large membership as well as to co-mingle,i the fraternity students with the non-fraternity students, the latter alsO clevoloping a better understand-ing between the two groups.

Under part two, speakers are ob-tained who bring messages of educa-tional value to the students. Discus-sions follow the talks with a lively interchange of ideas and opinions relative to the subject taken up by the speaker. Included among those who have addressed the Club from time to time are President Shepperd, Registrar Parrott, Captain Conmy, Professor Doerr and Dean Walster. Emphasis is also laid on the striving for and maintainance of good , grades, these being of paramount educational worth.

In politics the Club attempts thru group action, and mutual support to give the non-fraternity student a stronger voice and a greater expres-sion in the school government. Last year it made its first appearance in politics and received representation in two class offices. This year it em-barked on the same policy and now has representation in the freshman and senior classes.

The Club plans to enter whole-heartedly into the school projects and interests and strives to do as much

The Washington Square College Sophomore class called off its annual smoker because of the lack of in-terest in the affair. Noted men such as Rudy Vallee, the four Lombardo brothers, and George Lottman, the writer of "Anchors Aweigh" had sig-nified their intention of attending the smoker. The students say all the color has gone from the affair since the freshmen failed to crash the gates any more.

Best All Around Man In Loop; Consistent Ground

Gainer

Cy Lonsbrough, who for the past two years has been outstanding on the gridiron, was elected to captain the Bison team in the 1931 campaign. He succeeds Leo May who graduates next June.

After spending a year at Michigan State, where he was regarded as one of the - best prospects in the middle west, Cy came to North Da-kota State to star in t h e Bison yearling team of 1928. This year marked the first gridiron victory o f the Baby Bison over the University fresh-men. In his first year with the varsity his work aided the Bison comeback to the front ranks in the confer-ence play.

During the season just completed Lonsbrough devel-oped into not only the best ground gainer on the squad but proved quite capable at tackling, passing and blocking. Sport critics have hailed him as all-conference timber, and a few have called him the most val-uable man in the loop. He was the outstanding performer in the Bison-Sioux game this fall.

The team Which Cy will captain next fall will be minus but four vet-erans of this season's play, and is destined by many to be the greatest aggregation since Gil Dobie's famous "Aggies" of 1908. Lonsborough's prep experience was gained under the direction of Bob Lowe at the Fargo Central High School.

State Boxers Meet In "Y" Gymnasium

Smith Feels Confident Of Fine Season; Changes

Work Out

The regular classes in boxing had their first turnout Monday afternoon at the College "Y" gymnasium under the direction of Lieutenant Fay Smith, Bison Boxing coach. Classes will be held each afternoon excepting Satur-day and Sunday at this gym between four. and six o'clock in the afternoon.

With practically his whole boxing squad of last year back and in good trim, Lieutenant Smith feels confident of an excellent season's showing. Challenges will be sent to the Moor-head State Teacher's College boxers again this year and entries will be placed in the Golden Glove tourney at Minneapolis in the spring.

A new system will be used in the college tournaments this year. There will be three classes of boxers; the winners of a match in the first class will be entitled to a five point award, in the second class a three point award, and in the third class a single point for every match won. The choice of a class will be optional to the competing boxer but last year's champions will be in the first group.

LONseAzoriaH

CAPTAIN LEO MAY In Captain Leo May, North Dakota

State loses the premier blocking back of the North Central Conference. Changing from the fullback post, in which position he was the all confer-ence selection in 1929, to that of blocking back, Leo probably did' more to make the running attack go than any other individual on the team. In addition to his splendid blocking, the Bison captain also contributed the best and most consistent kicking game in the North Central Conference. The Finneganites could always de-pend upon Leo to boost them out of a hole when necessary.

Despite numerous injuries Captain May was on the deck for every game and every practice. His leadership both on and off the field] was an out-standing contribution to the Bison success. Leo will go down in Bison football history as a "great team" man and as a great a leader as ever captained a Bison football team.

A trophy will be awarded to the fra-ternity having the greatest number of assembled points from matches won.

Among the group who have already been working out for some time are: John Molitor and Bob Ward, cham-pion of the lightweight division; John Scalf, welterweight title holder, and Roman Pung, freshman champion of that division; Frank Dvorak, cham-pion, John Bond and Clifford Bollman of the middleweight group; Rod Mc-Millen, heavyweight champoin. The loss of Ted Lod , school champion and victor of his division in the Golden Glove Tourney, will be keenly felt in the light-heavyweight division. Loy did not return to school this year.

Every member of the freshman football squad not out for basketball has signified his intention of taking either boxing or wrestling instruction this winter, according to Lieutenant Smith. Arrangements for staging the bouts will be carried out as it was last year with the ring in the college Armory.

Good Coaches Are Reason For

Success Seldom does it occur that athletic

superiority cannot be traced to the coaches who, as the men behind the guns, really guide the destinies of their charges.

It is generally conceded that a coach most be versatile, must know not only the game but psychology and men as well. In this respect, State is especially fortunate in having a coaching staff that is finely keyed to its job.

As a handler of men, "Casey" Fin-negan is hard to beat, his ability to get the most out of his talent making him valuable for that quality alone. A wholesome Irish smile is more po-tent than a whip and Casey manages to keep the respect of his men through the ups and downs of grid-iron events. The former Grafton high schools coach is in his third year as athletic director, his record stamp-ing him as a valuable man who can get results.

Lowe Right Hand Man Bob Lowe, Finnegan's right hand

man in pigskin tactics, left a success-ful era as Fargo high grid mentor, coming to State as a frosh coach but his ability was needed on the varsity squad. Lowe starred for the Nodaks in both basketball and football and uses his experience to good advantage in tutoring Bison. He is well liked by the players who have the highest respect for Lowe's grid knowledge.

Although his post as military in-structor does not require it, Lt. Fay Smith has aided in Bison athletic de-velopment to the most of his ability. Smith gives his time and work un-selfishly to the athletic department and few men have ever contributed more permanent good in sports than this army man. This fall he had charge of the freshman eleven, turn-ing out a creditable team notwith-standing a dearth of material. He inaugurated a new and popular sport in boxing which has taken the Fargo vicinity by storm.

As long as Leonard T. "Saaly" Saalwaechter ladles out basketball info, Bison basketball teams need never shame a student body ."Saaly" came to Fargo from Cornell college, Iowa, where he had built champion-ship teams and soon established a reputation as one of the greatest students of basketball in the country. What he doesn't know about the game could be written on the neck of an oyster. What is most important is his wholehearted interest in his team. At a basketball game he works harder than his men, following every play, mentally cataloging every mis-take and he doesn't forget a thing.

When a game is over the Bison coach is the most exhausted man on the floor. His ability to impart what he knows is an admirable trait. Close followers of Bison basketball have seen him take raw material and fashion it into a finished product. Progress of cross country and track since taking up coaching duties has stamped Saaly as an invaluable addi-tion to the coaching staff.

I Student Opinionl What has become of the college glee

club ? Who is holding the reins? who is in the way ? It seems hard to swallow that there is not enough leadership among the college men who were members of the group last year to get the club functioning again. Surely they must be capable of enough leadership to get organized again. But even so, why has it taken them almost a term to get in motion? Is someone in the way? I repeat. Or, is cooperation and fellowship a prob-lem on this campus? Let's see you do something, fellows. There is not only a place for a State college men's glee club but it is a shame not to have such an organization among our 1,000 male students.
