Daily.ractice will begin Monday, April 1.1. JMay 15. 16, 22 and 23 were set asdates for the production of the 1925Blackfriar play, “Kaiti from Haiti.” itwas announced >^sterday by Don Ir¬win. Abbott of the order, followingthe fi’/al choice of the book last Mon¬day, and next Monday was set as theday on which the play’s lyrics wouldbe released to applicants fir musiccomposition.With this move by the Roard of Su¬periors, the first definite work on theproduction was begun. On the fouvdates seelcted, six shows will be pro¬duced. with evening performances oneach one of the dates, which are Fri¬day and Saturday of two successiveweeks, while afternoon performanceswill be given on Saturday afternoon.May 16 and 26. These dates for theshows are practically two weeks be¬hind the normal dates of production,as for the last three years the open¬ing night of Rlackfriars has been ot.or around the first day of May.Allow Time for InterscholasticThe reason assigned by Don Irwin,Abbott of Blackfrairs, for the delayedproduction of the show, was that moretime would be allowed Hamilton Cole¬man, the producer, to drill his casiand chorus, and that a better produc- jtion would be thereby assured. Also,the two weeks’ delay will permit themusical comedy to be given undermilder weather conditions, a factorwhich Irwin considers important indrawing the crowds which might beaway by indifferent weather.At the same time, dates for the be¬ginning of chorus practice which willnot interfere with the Basketball In¬terscholastic, as chorus practice foimpracticea full week after the close yi the in¬terscholastic, and three days beforethe final chorus tryouts. Practice forthe cast will begin a little earlier, butas the cast is so much smaller in num¬bers than the chorus, these rehearsalswill not interfere with the Interscholastic, according to Irwin, whose planthis is.Mimeograph SheetsMimeographed sheets with all thelyrics that are to be used in the pro¬duction are being printed now, andwill be available by next Monday. Inthis connection, anyone is eligible totry out for Friars music writing,whether or not he is a member of theOrder.Irwin wanted to encourage men whohad not yet participated in the annualFriars music contest to see him andget the particulars of it.“We want to encourage men whohave never written music for Friarsbefore to come out,” he said, "and Iwill be glad to have any campus manwho has ever had any experience witnmusic writing, or who has an ideathat he can write music to turn outat the trials. The choice of music isone thing in which merit is the onlyfactor, and for this reason alone, it isone of the most exacting contests onthe campus. These tryouts have pro¬duced some very fine musical numbers,such as ‘1 Wish 1 Was a Baby Doll,from the ‘Machinations of Max.1921,’‘You’ve Got, If You’re No’rmal, Havea Girl.’ and ‘Vagabondia.’ from ‘Any¬body’s Girl.’ 1922, The Ptolemy Ptod-dle,’ ‘The Ivory Hunters,’ and ‘Isa¬belle In,* from ‘The Filming of Friars,’1923.

Dean Wilkins feels thatthe adopted rushing period is too longand would detract from the ability ofthe Freshmen to begin their studieseffectively brought to a close on Sat¬ing in the Autumn quarter could beeffectively brought to a close on Sat¬urday, Oct. 3, whereas the council’splan would extend this period oneweek longer.Dean Wilkins does not want fra-be worthy of serious consideration onthe part of fraternity men, and a num¬ber of them have advanced opinionson the matter. Howard Amick saysthat: “The-Jnterfraicrnity Council istrying to do all that is square for theUniversity, and they have tried to se¬lect a rushing plan that would be suit¬able here.” Kenneth Laird, presidentof the Undergraduate council agreeswith Dean Wilkins that a three weeks’period would drag the rushing outlonger than necessary and wouldprobably interfere with the commenc¬ing of college work.“Period Should Not Be Shorter”"I do feel,” said Laird, “that com¬pleting the rushing on Oct. 3 wouldbe cutting the period too short, sin'-ethe University open classes Oct. 1.Rushing is too important a period inthe life of a Freshman entering col¬lege to be passed through in too greata hurry. Dean Wilkins has often saidthat this time is of great influence up¬on a student’s life and character, sincehe is deciding bis course of life forthe next four years. I do not believethat Dean Wilkins would want thisperiod slighted.”Dean Wilkins does not want fra¬ternity rushing to interfere in any waywith an early beginning of serious col¬lege work. His letter is as follows:Wilkins’ LetterDear Mr. Amick:I am very sorry to learn that theInterfraternity Council has voted infavor of a three weeks’ rushing plan.I think that you can hardly have con¬sidered the effect of such a plan onthe relation of the Freshman to hiscollege work.When a man is entering upon nphase of life so new as that of college,the character of his experiences in thefirst few days is tremendously criticalfor the formation of attitudes and hab¬its which will tend to persist.First Step ImportantIf he iii these first days is led tothe formation of the attitude that hiscollege work is the main thing, hestands a good chance of keeping amtdeveloping that attitude. If he formsregular habits of study lie stands agood chance of keeping and strength¬ening them. If, on the contrary, he isforced at the start into a series ofi experience that distract time and hisj thought from college work, he is alltoo likely to ado|t an attitude ar.d toform habits from which he may neverrecover.College work is the essential and byfar the most important fact in collegelife.

Therunning off of all finals at the sametime will, no doubt, draw largecrowds. As a result, competitionwill be keener, and will lead tolarger entries for future tourneys.It is planned to establish the re¬vue as an annual event.

Columbus, O., Feb. 26.— OhioState basketball fans are at feverheat in their anxiety as to the Buck¬eye five’s chances in the game withthe Chicago Maroons here Saturdaynight.It will be a case of a first-placeteam meeting a cellarite, and thedope will be all in favor of theOhioans. Yet Coach Olsen and hisplayers, as well as the local fans,know the strength of the Chicagoquintet and are looking forward toa hard tussle.“ And a hard tussle is just whatthe Maroon aggregation can ex¬pect,” say the Buckeye players, whoare jealously guarding their top po¬sition in the Big Ten, the first timethey have ever ridden on top of theheap at so late a stage in the cam¬paign.Last Monday at Evanston, Ill., theBuckele basketeers won their sixthconsecutive game and their eighthof the season against the Northwes¬tern court outfit. The score, 34 to23, was somewhat top-heavy, butthe Purple gave the Bucks a bigscare with the count only 13 to 11at the end of the first half.A crowd of between 10,000 and11,000 is predicted for the Chicago-Ohio State tilt, which will be stagedin the Coliseum at the State Fairgounds.HUSK 0’HARE*CHEZ PIERRE247 E.
