We feel quite fortunate in l>eing
among these places.

University. For seven years he was

his subjects will lie “Are You Curi-
ous?” and “Can You Imagine?”

READER DEPICTS
ORIGINAL DRAMA
Depicting with startling clarity al-
most a dozen characters in a three-act
drama, written by herself, Gay Mac-
laren, dramatic reader, appeared in
the auditorium Friday n’ght at 8:15
. clock, as the first number of the ly-
ceum program tor the summer terms.
Mis- Maclaren delineated each char-
acter so admirably that at times one
almost forgot that one person was
reading and was carried on by the
skilfully devised plot and the inter-
esting characters The querulous com
plainings of gentle old Aunt Elsie
vied closely with the swaggering
braggadocio and youthful exuberance
of Stao Rutledge in rapturing the
pleasure of the audience.
In this appearance, Miss Maclaren
proved that she is not alone a dramat-
ic interpreter of remarkable ability
but a discerning and adroit play-
wright.
The cordial and sympathetic hear
mg accorded by the thousands w’ho
h* hH her Friday, indicate that even
a third appearance of Gay Maclaren in
Denton would be much appreciated.
In order to allow the print-
tern to give the best arranged
sheet on Wednesday, all man-
uscripts must lie in their
hands by Tuesday morn ng.
That means that all material
should be in the Publications
Office by Monday afternoon
at the latest. If possible,
it is urged that all writings
be put in the f'hat box on
Saturday.
In response to the call of former
President "Snag” Perryman, the sum-
mer seniors met in I.-HOT Wednes-
day at 11:30.
Everyone seemd to In* imbued with
a sense of business either because it
was too hot to talk or because it was
so near the noon hour. Following the
suggestion of u time-honored senior,
of good proportions, the election of
officers was immediately started. C.
W. Morrow was nominated for the
presidency and was elected by accla-
mation Dun McAlister and Ona Ra-
ney were elected vice president and
sec: etar> treasurer, r «|iertively, w ith
out opposition. Ihe position of ('hat
reporter was not so easily tilled.
Whether it was the lack or the abun-
dance of good material we are not pre-
pared to say, but two promising young
men were nominated. Tommy Tamp
kins won tiy a vert narrow margin,
li to 5. His opponent was Wallace
Davis.
A social committee with Mi'- Ona
Raney a- chairman wu- appointed with
strict instructions to "get busy at
once.” An assessment of two dollars
|ier head was voted. It is especially
desired that every member pay this
assessment at once to M ss Raney as
we intend to make this a never to Is*
forgotten session for the Senior Class.
The class of the past se--ion made
h wonderful record. Nothing was at
tempted that did not meet with the
most pleasing sucres- Mr. Medders
has iieen selected as sponsor for the
summer class. To know him is to
love him. If you have not paid your
two dollars, do so at once and help u>
to make this the Iw-t rln on rec
ord. Reporter.

It is also agreed that students who
matry during the term would l»e auto-
matically dropped. The reasons are
obvious.
There are approximately 10,000 stu
dents enroll*d in the eight teachers
colleges of the state this summer.
With a decrease in the numlier of
subcollege students, there ha- hi on an
equal increase in college students.
Attendance at the summer normals
has decreased 75 |ter rent. It is doubt-
ful whether the state -u|>erintendent
will authorize a summer normal or-
g. nization by 1!’2f>.
