Members ofthe Blackfriars cast and chorus per­formed an incident' and a ballet num­ber in the 191� comic opera, "A Mythin Mandel," which will be presentedon �Iay 4, 5, 11 and 12, as well as askit which was specially prepa-red foraction before the camera. The filmswill be released on April 20 and will. he shown during the week beginningon that date.The chorus gave the d-:fnces belong­iog to a Hawaiian scene in the play, tothe whistled tune of James Hemphill's"The Ukelele Serenade." Althoughthe members of the chorus were notcostumed, the characters of the castwho followed them were quite insuf ..ficiently clothed, however, to with­stand the April breeze.Give Special Scene.At the opening of the �kit whichwas devised for the occasion, Sambo,�annibal, caricatured by Paul Zeis­'ler, was discovered. talking with hismaster, J.

The oper-. ators began to tU1'n the cranks of theirmachines and SteUart ·Wdndrow, as""KewPie" Durham, entered, wearingan anachronistic derby in contrast tohis Roman costume. Caesar politelylifted JJis crown.I nstead of having the normal ef­fect, this action angered uKewpie,"who is something of an athlete.

While the enthusiasm exhibitedin the Reserve Officers' TrainingCorps by University men has 'beenmore than was expeeted.. we can domuch to make the work more inter­esting to the .students by having somesort of competitive drill by rival or­ganizations.In this connection the Interfrater­nity council 'has a very splendid 0p­portunity. Why not have each chap­ter on' the campus organize two ormore squads, trained by the fraternitymen .more experienced in military,af­fairs, and hold a competitive Mill forprizes some time next month? Surelythis would create a new interest in\th�.military work now conducted under.the au,spices of Major Beli, and at thesa'll1e time would improve the effi­cienCY of the University corps.COMMUNICAq'lONS ..(In view of the fact that the c01l1-'cation column 'of the DailY M'a-mtlDl 'ngrOon is maintained as a clean.• booSe for student and faculty opUl-ion, The Maroon accepts no res:s'bllity for the seJttim� dleed, Co . �_ft 9-reexpress mmumcaWVUA:) ouldwelcOmed by the edi�r, and shgoodbe signed as an evIdence of befaith, although 'the name will l10t0-published without the writer'5 coweot-)WAR AND ATHLETIcS·,I Editor of the Daily Maroon:h· d" 1 of to-I .hope t at 10 yom e Itona dd y (April 12) entitled "Go .A;hea�Ith Athletics," you do not reflect ae-w den�Urately the attitude 'Of the stu.C mongbody.

I Swimming will continue to hold aprominent place in the athletic calen­dar of the University during theSpring quarter. Two series of raceswill be held during l\lay. Thle eighthannual all-around swimming cham­pionship races will be held May 2-4,and the second annual cup races willbe held on May 11, 18, and 25.The all-around championship willbe a series of events. Contestantswill compete in all six, and the win­ner will be determined on a percent­age basis. E\"�ry place will count,and the man with the highest totalwill be counted the winner. The or­der of the events follows: Wednes­day, May 2, plunge and 220 yardswim; Thursday, May 3, 40 yard sNimand 200 yard breast stroke; Friday,May 5, 100 yarn' swim and 150 yardbackstroke.Expects Large Number.The number of .entrants in this racelast year was thirty, but Coach whiteis looking for a much :larger repre­sentation. Although the chances fa­vor one of the sWimming team takingthe t.itle, outsiders stand a goodchance. Walter Earle was the win­ner last season with 536 poirits, O'­Connor second, Crawford third. andMeine fourth, Earle also won in1915, so he is the favorite this �r,as Crawford is not in school thisquarter.In the CUI' races there are onlythree races, and competitors mustentier 'all dlree. One point will begiven for a first, two for a second,.and three for a third. All placeswill COWlt, but the anan with the few­est number of points will be given thewinner's' cup, All Conference pointwinners win be excluded from theseraces, and as this ruling will keep outmost of the Varsity, freshmen havetne best chance of winning._'Will' Award Ten Medals.TeD medalJ will be awarded in theall-around championships.
