Up till that time it had beenthe policy of the club in arrangingits program of events to have onlyinformal dances. The formal wastried last winter and proved such asuccess that it was decided to makeit an annual affair. It has become"the" affair of the Reynolds club.This dance differs from all the oth­er affairs of the sort held on thecampus during the year in that themen are not allowed to call for theirpartners in carriages, and that theyare not to send. them flowers. Inthis way the big expense of theregular formal dances is cut downconsiderably, and the character ofthe evening is not materiallychanged.The chaperones at the dance thisevening will be �Ir. and Mrs. DavidAllen Robertson, Professor and Mrs.William Albert Nitze, Mrs. CharlesPorter Small and Professor and Mrs.Robert Andrews Millikan..'- -�To·.Becin·.Prompt:tr.-. _ ...• _The dance will begin at 8:30 o'clockpromptly, and will close at midnight.The affair will be opened by a grandmarch. I t is planned to use thepromenade built last summer on theroof of Hutchinso� hall, arid the cor­ridor leading to Mandel if the weath­er permits. This has been a featureof the last few dances held at theclub, as it gives a large outdoor prom­enade easily accessible to the danc­ers."This is the biggest affair at theclub during the year," said Sullivan,the recently elected president, yester­day, "and there will be a large crowdout. It will probably be necessary touse all three floors of the club houseto accommodate the dancers. Lastyear's affair was such a distinct suc­cess that there is no doubt in mymind at all that the members of theclub will appreciate the opportunityand turn out in large numbers."FRENCH CLUB TO GIVE PLAYPlan Elaborate French Program forSpring lleeting.er CLASSICAL PLAY NOT FAVOREDSuggestion That Only Classics BePresented by Dramatic Club NotWarmly Received-Miller, Linn andMrs. Flint Express Opinions.The suggestion made in the edito­rials of a Chicago newspaper thatonly classical plays be given at theUniversity has not met with favora­ble comment on the campus. Mostof the people who have expressedtheir opinions are not opposed to theclassical play itself, but do not con­demn the modern play. as the edito­rial did. :\105t of the people inter­viewed by a Daily Maroon reportersaid that the modern play was themore important of the two; and themore desirable, if either has to beabandoned.Classical Plays Impossible.As a representative of the classicalfaculty Professor Frank Justus Mill­er was interviewed."I don't think," said Professorlfiller, "that the University studentsshould give only the Latin and Greekclassics, but I do think that weshould, as a general rule, presentplays of greater intrinsic worth thanhas been the custom in the past.There is no reason, as far as I cansee, for designating the plays of theLatin and Greek dramatists as partic­ularly worthy to be given by the stu­dents here. Certainly it is hardlyworth while to give these plays in theoriginal tongue, as even the most ac­cor..y!::;hed classical scholars find itdifficult to follow the original text.when spoken rapidly. And with thegeneral audience it is, of course, com­pletriy-lust. --Bur1lt·l�a'SFour· young -actors should try something worthwhile-Shakspere, for instance.

The biggest mass meetingof the year has been called by Di­rector Stagg to cheer the men to vic­tory, besides asking the assistance ofthe University band, the rooters' sec­tion and organized yelling.Signs seem auspicious for a trackvictory, but it will be a close one. Lastnight llr. Stagg doped the eventsout on what seemed a rock-bottombasis, and the score was a tie, 43 to43. This was without counting sev­eral points that seem probable to goto Chicago. The relay was given toIllinois as well, an event that, shouldthe meet depend upon it, would prob­ably be taken by Chicago's fast quar­ter-miters. Mr. Stagg is loath, how­ever, to run the men in too manyraces. The size of the score willdoubtless depend to some extent onthe spirit of the Chicago rooters.Giant Mass Meeting in Kent.The plans for the giant mass meet­ing were perfected last night, to be'nerd this morning- at -10-:30 :"in Kenttheater. The University band will as­semble �" front ofCobb hall at exact­ly 10:30, and willTead the proeessionto the place of meeting. The speak­ers that : have been - obtained includethe famous "Jimmy" Touhy. He willbe there with Long John Schommerto furnish contrast for the meeting,llr. Stagg will tell in a few wordsthe strong and weak points of thetrack team. Dr: Raycroft will prob­ably do the same for the basketballteam. The band will play the Varsitysongs while the rooters sing. It ispossible that there will be no root­ing, on account of the fact that therooters will wish to save their voicesfor the meet in the evening. Cheer­leader Pegues, however, made a spe­cial .point of the singing with theband.How Chicago Can Wan.In the dashes the "Old Man" iscounting on Straube for the best thatis in him.

Flint of the English depart­ment, who has always been identifiedwith University dramatics, gave it asher opinion that plays of both kindsshould be given. While she believesthat it would be well to give the clas­sics, even the Greek and Latin plays,she considered it of even greater im­portance to successfully present themodern plays. In view of the gener­al attitude of University audiences,she said that she believed modernplays- were not only more acceptable,but were the only sort of plays todraw an audience that would fill Man­del.Dean Liml Gives Opinion.Dean Linn, also of the English de­partment, one of the founders of theDramatic club, and probably the mostwidely known actor in the ranks ofthe faculty, said: "Of course weshould give the classics. because theclassics will never be given anywhereif they are not given at a University.But it is beyond my comprehensionw�y we should be �:"tpected to givenothing else. I cannot see why weshould be forced to give up the mod­ern drama in favor of the Greek andLatin tragedies. lloreo\"Cr, as I un­derstand the situation, the object ofthe members of the Dramatic club isto act-not to act always one partic­ular sort of play- simply to act anyand every sort.

Three of the youthful writ­:ers kept Kipling's conventional ofthe independent - daughter of thescheming mamma, and the rich, uglyold man and the handsome youthwithout prospects, who defeated allthat poor- mamma planned; but thesetting of far-away India was eclipsedby the substitution of a real live LakeForest tennis tournament, summersociety at York beach and an archerycontest on lhe llidway in the glori­ous time to come, when the womenshall have a new gymnasium. Cer­tainly, too, Peggy Foster as "the ladyof the racket," or Nell Hildreth as"Diana of the Midway," and BaronAlexander Vasilovitch Jraoslevl,. andyoung Henry, handsome as the youthof an Arrow collar advertisement,were eminently more interesting thanKipling's puppets. Another of thereformers of Kipling was even moredaring.. and recounted' the tale ofSwaying Reed, daughter of the oldchief, Noquito, and star among maid­ens, who refused to shoot the beltof the chieftain, Sangarnore, for loveof her faithful playmate, Magna ."This was the most interestingmeeting we have had this quarter,"said Miss Clara Alexander, the pres­ident of the club.

PUBLIC LIBRARY POTEHTFOR SOCIAL BETTERMENTCity Librarian Legler Lauds Workof Librui.. ... IqIJl.1izingSocial Conditions.Public libraries of the �ountry havewidened the �orizon of the lives ofth� childen. They are also a mostowerful factor in keeping the boysnd girls 'On the farm. according toity Librarian Henry E. Legler, whopoke yesterday on the "Social Serv­ce of the Library.""The best work of the library,"aid Mr. Legler, "is being done inhe great centers of population. Theeed of educating the public is al­vays felt there. The state, to protect15 own political institutions, has es­ablished' the school system. Buthis is in many cases inadequate onccount of the economic conditionsof the people. For supplementinghe education acquired in the lowergrades the public libraries furnishhe most potent opportunities."Will Mean Return to the Soil.)Ir. Legler lauded the work of theibrarics, and especially those of thecountry, in keeping the boys andgirls on the farm. He predicts thathe present work enhanced will leado a return to the soil and a conse­quent relief of the cities from con­gestion. In this connection the trav­eling libraries were also cited asstrong powers in doing an immenselyvaluable work.The importance of good juvenileliterature was emphasized by thespeaker as necessarily effective andvital. Especially was the foreignproblem mentioned as possibly solvedin many of its aspects by the libraryclub. These clubs of boys or girlsare seen mainly in the city of Pitts­burg. The Chicago library. however,is branching out with its sub-stationsin the poorer districts. "The libra­ries," said )lr. Legler, "widen thelives of the children, a need especial­ly seen in the case of the children ofthe slums."Books Circulate Widely.The speaker in comparing the pres­ent libraries with those of the pastcharacterized the old books as be­yond the reach of the people. Theywere, in fact, chained to the shelves.Of the present he said:"N ow the books are given wingsand penetrate into every home. Theyare seen in the hands 'Of rich andpoor, young and old. Instead of theold libraries and old librarians, whoalone read the books, we have a li­brary today of which the keepers aremore than anxious to have everyoneread their books.Libraries Multiply."The libraries of the country havemultiplied rapidly, until now we have12,000 public libraries. This does notinclude the traveling libraries whichare operated from thirty differentstates. The stationary libraries aredoing nothing that is not done intheir immediate neighborhood by oth­er philanthropic movements. Thereare great problems to be worked out.and there are great possibilities fur­nished to the libraries, in which thegirls' and boys' clubs are finding amuch needed home."paCsistn\ittatt1ttI. CLASSICAL PLAY NOT FAVORED(Continued f"om Page 1.)one style of play. It is the policy ofthe club to give two plays each year,one in the winter quarter, and one. in the spring quarter.
