Shake­ spearean plays continue popular in German theaters. Explained one so­ ciety member: "Britain stands not only to lose the war, but Shakespeare to boot." When the German Army marched into butterfat Denmark, Berlin an­ nounced, it carried many tons of but­ ter with it. German troops, the high command explained, would not use Danish butter or supplies until a "proper trade agreement" had been concluded between it and the king­ dom it is "protecting." In the Vatican this story about showy Hermann Goering, No. 2 Nazi, was going the rounds. Supposedly dissatisfied with the results of For­ eign Minister von Ribbentrop's re- cunt talk with the Pope, Hitler sent Goering to Rome. A few days later he received the following telegram from Goering: "Have placed Holy See under German protection. All prelates in concentration camp. Pope has fled. Vatican in flames. Cardinal's robes suit me beautifully." * • * ^.Americans again have been warned, this time to leave Hungary while there still remains' means by which evacuation will'be possible. It seems there are only about 400 Americans in Hungary. These are citizens by adoption, who returned home after being naturalized here. • - Such an announcement is siignifi- - cant, for it can easily mean that someone, Nazi Germany, Soviet Rus­ sia or Italy may be planning to go : into the regional territory of Hun­ gary. * * * - • -rrr The United States has appointed a minister to Iceland, following the an­ nexation of , Denmark by the Reich and the action of Iceland in announc­ ing its independence from the Euro­ pean country and its king.

Mander discussed the possibilities of an international government as a way out of our present difficulties at an open fo^um Thursday evening, April 25,. in the College Elementary School Auditorium. Dr. Mander, pro­ fessor of Political Science at the Uni­ versity of Washington, said that the nations must "find some new political unit of society" to provide a "more effective form of government." Cooperation Needed •" Not only is cooperation among the national states needed to promote peace but to promote other things necessary to the welfare of man. "In­ ternational "relations," Dr. Mander said, "should function for the greatest welfare of the greatest number." In the prevention of disease and crime, and in -the Solution of such problems as nutrition, world markets, and in­ ternational trade, the modem state is no longer adequate. "An international government is the., least, machinery which makes possible the handling of Nationalism Cause of League ( / Breakdown these problems," he asserted. Nationalism was the cause, of the breakdown of the League of Nations,- one of the first attempts of world government, 'Dr. Mander declared. To­ day's technical problems demand the intellect of all. Whether it will be a fascist government such as Germany has under Hitler,"or communistic as in Stalin's Russia, or a democratic federation of states as advocated by Striet in his book Union Now remains (Continued on Page 4) The annual school picnic will be held at Eschbach Park, Tuesday, May 14. Seven trucks will be loaded with students and leave at 8:15 in the morning. They will start back around 7:45 in the evening. Two free meals will be furnished by the student body, Oral Baker has an­ nounced. Games are being organized for the picnic. There will be a tug of war between students and faculty men— with the losers going in the river, maybe. The I. K.'s have challenged the W Club to a game of softball also. In the evening there will be danc­ ing with music by Manzo's orchestra.

POSTERS OF MANY NATIONS SHOWN National Prize Winners Shown Reproduced For all of next week will be, in room A-300, an Art Department exhibit of poster reproductions from many na­ tions of Europe. These posters are the result of a personal collection which Mr. Randall has been making for about eight ' years. The most amusing of the posters is by a Polish artist, /Trier in this poster, which ballyhoos a magazine, a gentleman in the barber chair is reading the magazine, while the barber, engrossed over his patron's shoulder in the same magazine, is on the verge of scissor­ ing off the patron's ear. Variety of Styles Conspicuous in the exhibit is its variety of styles. Many of thes.e pos­ ters have won national and interna­ tional poster contests. A similar col­ lection was shown at the Modern Museum of Art, in New York. Valua­ ble to teachers is a'familiarity with such illustrative material in the so­ cial studies, expressing as they do the national spirits of many countries, such as Norway, Denmark". Sweden, Germany, France, England, and the "Fourteen Men Enrolled This Session All Time High"—1917 ' "It "has been brought to the attention* wrong. The campus also held the * *M T • N IL 1 «1 J CAIAM/IA KLLLL/1. of the Crier staff that all good rural weeklies have some space devoted to items from the old files of the news­ paper. Not wishing to be behind or below the standards of its kind such a column is being run in the Crier be­ ginning with this issue. Incidentally this is the column. If you enjoy it, fine. If you don't you cap let . us know and we may not run it, if there is some other filler available. Fourteen Men There are rumors of publications of this institutions which ran banner heads reading "14 Men 'Enrolled This Session All Time High." The edi­ torial writer could see big things in store for the school in the way of .a football team and social functions, Unfortunately nothing this exciting is available. The • files in the library contains papers back only as far as i925-26. At that time the paper was titled Student Opinion. In 1925 Student Opinion was com­ ing along merrily. It doesn't sound unlike the Crier. The new library was completed • that year. Formerly the library had been housed in -the .Ad Building in the rooms now given to the bookstore-, and the. postoffice. Maybe it used the student lounge too, Trot since I was a member of the kin­ dergarten when I saw it I may be Edison School, the old Science Build ing, torn down a few years ago to make 'way for the Auditorium and Kamola. The men, whose number had reached a few. more than 14, lived in. Eswin Hall which is. now a. part of the housing project of C. W. C. E. and is known as the College Apartments. Before Dad Straight The Brite Spot or one half the pres­ ent Brite Spot was on the half of the block now occupied by Sue. It was known as the Home Grocery and owned by Mrs. Ganty since this was even before Dad Straight's entrance into the cultural hig of the Washing­ ton State NormalNBchool, which an editorial at that time tells, us is the best institution of higher learning in the state.. We decided the writer's modesty alone compelled her to leave out all the other colleges of the Northwest. Beck Was New The new teachers that year in­ cluded Mr. Beck, who was given a big hand as a pretty snappy organ­ izer of music organizations. There s something about that field I think. •Musicians are SO businesslike. Miss Bloomer joined the training school staff.

This was the last program of the sea­ son presented by the Ellensburg Com­ munity Concert Association. Mr. Gorin's program won great ap­ plause from the crowd throughout. His fine voice combined with an un usual personality and stage presence assured his good reception. His program was'well-balanced, in eluding such numbers as the "Largo ai Factotum" from the "Barber of Se­ ville," Polish folk songs, Italian,, and French songs.

A few American posters are also on exhibit. Most of the posters—and the best of them—are foreign. Artists of All Nations f Represented among the artists are Austin Cooper, A..M.'Cassandre, Jean Cadlu, Phil Von Phul, Professor Kir- nig, Herve Bailie, E. McRnight Kauf- fer, Ben Blessum (a Norwegian), and the Einnish artist, Semeri. Among-the posters is the prize winning World's Fair poster, by Joseph Bender. The collection of posters is~ impres sive. Many of the reproductions are quite large. The Art Department is to be congratulated for showing them and Mr. Randall for having collected them. - . - NOTICE There will be a meeting of W. E.

HEBELER TALKS ON KINDERGARTEN - "Is the Kindergarten Important" was the topic of a speech made last Friday, April 26, by Miss Amanda Hebeler in Tacoma. Miss Hebeler was speaking before the state convention of :.the American, Association of Uni­ versity Women. . ^ • The meeting was attended by wo- ' men working in institutions of higher education. PARKER LEAVES Omar Parker A. S. B. president, left Monday night for 'Salt Lake City and the Conference of Student Body Presidents of Western States. Parker will stay for a week or more studying student administration in college, and probably other things as well. In case Omar fails to return-, inside ox two weeks a searching party will be sent out from the Millionaires' Club.

Mother's Day Evening Program To Be Open To All Students The members of the Women's* the awarding of two recognition NOTICE All women students are urgently requested to attend the assembly to­ day."At 10:45 the Associated Women Students will discuss plans for the coming Mother's Day celebration. League Council have been very busy making plans for the Mother's Day festivities which occur on this campus the weekend of May 11th and 12th.v One of the things that the girls want particularly to stress to the student body as a whole, is that the evening program, beginning at' 8:30, in the auditorium will be open to every stu­ dent and faculty member on the cam­ pus and to townspeople as well. Variety in Evening Program This .year the evening program is to c.ombine a variety of numbers taken .Irom some- of the departments of the school. There will' be a part of the program devoted to the dance drama,..and part to the choir and or­ chestra. The Drama Department is furnishing a number and there will be some, individual solo work. The pro­ gram promises to be diversified and enjoyable and it is the-hope of the Council of the Women's League that all students avail themselves of the opportunity to h^ar it. Tea on Saturday The activities for the weekend will include a tea Saturday afffernoon, a banquet in the evening, initiation of new officers and the evening pro­ gram. It is 'the evening program which is open to the general public. One feature of the banquet will be prizes for the off-campus girl who has been most active on the campus, as well as being almost wholly self-sup­ porting and for the dormitory girl jtvho hais made her place on the cam­ pus, in addition to "carrying on activi­ ties. Another feature of this year's banquet will be the announcement of the names of the girls .who will be elected to serve in next year's Soph­ omore Service group. This group was begun last fall and the names of those chosen were announced at the Home Coming festivities last November. Fi'om now on, the announcement of" the Sophomore Service group will be made on Mother's Day. Mothers' Weekend-a Tradition "For several years now the Mother's Day weekend has been a definite fea­ ture on the school calendar and all of the girls on the campus look forward to having their mothers visit the cam-- pus, meet the faculty members, see the new buildings, and get acquainted with at least a little cross-section of their school life. The Women's League has appreciated the splendid support and cooperation that everybody on the campus has always shown, and they hope that this year the mothers will again enjoy the friendliness and hos­ pitality of the Central Washington College of Education. v v.

Faculty Comments On Russell Case • This week the Crier interviewed over half the teachers on the faculty here in an attempt to find their reactions to the Bertrand Russell case in New York. Some teach­ ers were not interested in the case and therefore made no comments while others wished to Jiave more time to con­ sider the case. The statements of those who were ready and willing to make them are printed below. SARAH SPURGEON, ART DEPARTMENT "I doubt that an undergraduate institution is a desir­ able place for a person with limited views on controversial moral questions." GRAHAM DRESSLER, ENGLISH DEPARTMENT "I think it is a petty squabble and indicates a gap which shouldn't exist between the general public and the aca­ demic world." HAROLD BARTO, HISTORY DEPARTMENT "In my opinion, if the relations between Mr. Russell and City College are as cordial as professed, this case re­ solves itself into one of purely legal proportions. It is self-evident that a Supreme Court judge would have many items in his favor, over me at least, in the matter of defining the legal premises for his action." HUBERT COFFEY, EDUCATION DEPARTMENT "The Russell incident, along with the Counts incident in Seattle, demonstrates the folly of being complacent about democracy. The achievement of democracy is a constant struggle and every enlightened mind should fol­ low the example of John Dewey in fighting inroads on democratic integrity. In this case, as in others, the strug­ gle is against entrenched institutions fully capable of Blitzkrieg. If education has any stakes in democracy, then to be effective, it should pass beyond the stage of platform utterance, and in the interests of democratic fellowship, the W. E. A. might appropriately join other organizations, such as the American Civil Liberties Union, in condemning the whole procedure." VERNON CARSTENSEN, HISTORY DEPARTMENT "At best the dismissal of Mr. Russell is merely the re­ sult of rather silly fear expressed by a bishop at worst the judicial decision against Russell, if it is allowed to stand unchallenged, is a threat against the intellectual freedom of every teacher and student in the nation. If the precedent is allowed .to stand, it would mean that judges, until now mostly concerned with points of law, would set themselves up as judges of ethics. Russell was ordered dismissed because, according to the judge, free­ dom to teach involves only freedom to teach 'good,' and the judge feels competent to determine what is'good' and what is 'evil.' Russell, he was sure, would teach 'em 'evil.' Such power in the hands of even American judges repre­ sents the most serious potential threat to free inquiry and free thought in education today." — WILLIS NEALLEY, SOCIAL SCIENCE jWhile I might not agree with a professor's personal' theories I think that there, is no reason why hi^ ideas in other subjects should conflict with those of the subjects he is teaching. That is—a teacher's opinions about some controversial questions do not make him unfit to teach Other subjects adequately." A. J. MATHEWS, LANGUAGE & LITERATURE DEPT. "If Bertrand Russell were a secondary school man, his affair with the church, the government, and the, home might be excusable on the grounds of retributive justice, since these institutions might then be understood as strik­ ing back at the school for its usurpation of their duties and rights. But Russell:is in 'higher education,' and this interference with his teaching is pure meddling. The meddlers obviously don't know what teaching is or what connection it has with morality (even what morality it­ self is?). . I do not agree with many who put all the blame on the Catholic Church, which in my mind is no m'ore responsible than other militant organizations -whose militancy is a sign of the times:, the Dies Committee and whatever 'or­ ganization' it was'that lately denied Dr. Counts the right to speak on the University of Washington campus. Such things are happening frequently now. They simply show that the 'European' war has reached us already and is working its evil on us."

I de­ cided I had made a big enough con­ cession to.my snobbishness by going to hear him. There was no use over-! doing it by walking backstage and shaking his hand. After all, there is only one reason for wanting to meet Gorin in the manner I would have met him Mon­ day night, and that is so I could say, ''I've met Igor Gorin." That's a snobbish objective, but it wouldn't have had any real snob value cwen. Because if I said it around here everybody would understand the circumstances. And if I waited till I got home to say it nobody would know who Igor Gorin was anyhow. The last celebrity I met was Dr, Kilpatrick, only I'm not talking about it. It's my opinion that if you want to keep your reverence for a man it is. better to read his biography than to shake his hand. HOLLYWOOD CLEANERS Main 125 109 W. 5th NEXT TO ELKS TEMPLE Scene in a certain gal's apt. Time is 11 p. m. Bernard Siefner has ac­ companied a pal to visit this cuty.

The reader fully agreed with this critic about certain phases of Kampus politics (Somebody does, anyway.)

Got the real low-down on Lyle "Brainwave" Mercer but can't print ifc, darn the luck. It's really a choice item but the circumstances are such etc. You might ask him for the dope and see what he says. Practice up on your footwork first though. Professor Mander had the difficult art of talking a lot and saying very little, dewn pat when he spoke here last week. An interesting speaker, he neatly sidestepped any and all com­ mitments, said nothing concrete what soever, and yet managed to put him­ self across. I do not mean to dis­ parage his ability ... he obviously just didn't intend to make any state­ ments which might "boomerang later. That old phrase "Overheard at Ed­ wards" is no more. It will linger like many other memories, vague but not forgotten. The sight of kindly Mrs. Edwards moving amidst her gleaming glassware, stopping to inquire solicit ously of a student's health, giving a poorer student an extra helping, will never completely fade away.- "Over­ heard at Edwards" becomes "Over­ heard at Hickeys" now, and we trust the new phrase upholds the prestige of the old.

He couldn't lift the paper to turn the page and didn't have enough room if he kept it down out of sight. After five minutes of trying to turn the paiges slowly so they wouldn't crackle, he was about ready to give up in disgust. Then the man"in front of him turned around and handed him a paper already turned to" the page.

SPORTS By MATT TOMAC It is goodbye to Coach Joe Paglia of St. Martin's College at Lacey. After five years as athletic director, Joe has notified the college officials that he will not ask renewal of his contract. However, he has offered his services to the college as part time coach, but the college considered that such an arrangement would not be desirable. Those who know Joe will readily admit that this league has lost one of the most colorful and most popular coaches. Joe's good sportsmanship and friendliness has made an impression all over this conference. When we say, "we are sorry to see him leave, and wish him the best of luck," we know that we are speaking the minds of many fans, athletes, and coaches. A good way to pass away the time is trying to pick the winner of Cheney-Wildcat meet Compiling the best per­ formances made by both teams, we will attempt to. give you an idea of the outcome of the meet.

After reading our article on baseball possibilities here, one person inquired if the council would appropriate money to help the boys organize their own team. If the council did, appropriate to such a cause, there would be many other activities (not under jurisdiction of the school) demanding such help. The council cannot ap­ propriate any money to baseball, and won't be able to until it becomes a varsity sport. Up at Bellingham A1 Biggs, retired sports editor, is running a preview of conference meet on the instalment plan. With four events, the 100, the 220, the 440, and the discus already finished, the score is E. W. C. 18, C. W. C. 15, W. W. C. 6, P. L. C. 5 and St. Martin's 0. Nice going Biggs, that's a pretty fair job of calculating, and we are inclined to agree with you. SPORT BITS: P. L. C. has a man on its track squad, who threw the discus 120 feet in his first attempt—why don't they use him, with little practice he shouldn't have any trouble winning in this conference .. . Grover Klemmer, Univer­ sity of California Frosh, ran the 440 in 47 flat... Another Stanford man breaks a record—Paul Moore broke tlie % mile record in 2:58.7 the old record was 3:00.6 . . . They call it a baseball score—Wapato 25, Ellensburg Eagles 23 ... The motion picture industry is paying tribute to Knute Rockne. Now in the making is~a picture called "Life of Knute Rockne." Jim Thorpe, always admired by Rockne,. will play a small part in the picture ... George Zigenfuss, former University of Washington basketball star, is the nearly appointed basketball and tennis coach at Bain- bridge ... Glen Cunningham is now a member of Cornell faculty—he will handle the P. E. department... Marston Fitzsimmons, Pomeroy High School star, ran a mile in 4:24... P. L. C. and St. Martin's seem to be on very neigh­ borly basis—they both came here on St. Martin's bus ... There are rumors that Seattle will release Coscaret and Harris... Who's going to stop the Dodgers?—Tex Charl- eton is a pretty fair "has been," he pitched a no-hit,* no- run game against the Reds ... Pat Haley, sensational W. S. C. Frosh, scored two victories over Cheney's Carpine .. Uncle Webber of Bellingham broad jumps over 22 feet . . . Looks like Dahl of Bellingham will run again—good news for Bellingham, but poison to the opponents. Having a tough time to schedule games for this fall, Coach Nicholson has released the following games with Gonzaga Frosh, St. Martin's, Cheney, Bellingham, and P. L. C. Attempts have been made to sched­ ule games with Lewiston and Oregon Normals. The game with Oregon Normal is still in the making while there is no hope for a game with Lewiston. However, there is no need to worry because by the time fall rolls, around, Coach Nicholson will undoubtedly find some suitable op­ ponents. . . ' The schedule: ISept. 27— Gonzaga Frosh here (night game). . Oct. 9—St. Martin's (here). Oct. 12—^Cheney (there). Nov. 2—Bellingham (here) (Home­ coming). Nov. 19—P. L. C. (there). TRACKSTERS INVADE CHENEY STRONGHOLD Embarking on their first major trip of this season. Coach George Mabee and 16 cindermen have departed for Cheney today where they will meet the highly-touted Savages in a con­ test Friday afternoon. The traveling squad^ includes, sprints—Jones, Creed, Orchard, Brid­ ges and. Yocom distances^—Wilson, Yocom, Bach, Sullivan, Colwell, and Ford hurdles — Martin and Love field events—Martin, Mirosh, .Sulli­ van, Creed, Breithaupt, Ottelin and Broughton. Facing the Wildcats will be a pow­ erful Cheney machine in which Car- pine and Chissus are the big guns. Carpine, the sprint ace, has turned in exceptionally good times this year. Kis greatest feat was beating Mon­ tana's Emigh. Chissus, the holder of two conference hurdle records, has been winning regularly. His best ef­ fort was in high hurdles against the W. S- C. Frosh where he won the event in 15.8, In the pole vault Ferrier and Erik- son are expected to take one-two, as both have cleared 12 feet this year. Bert Tchn, Zier and Brown are the big guns in the distance races. All three are defending conference cham­ pions. The Savaiges are also powerful in the weights. Up to dater Hipskind and Noble have thrown the platter 132 and 128 feet respectively, which is about 10 feet better than Ottelin's ef­ forts. Hipskind and Noble also throw the javelin and the shot. Noble has a 165 foot javeline ihrow to his credit, while Hipskind has heaved the shot over 40 feet. The mile relay promises to be one of the highlights of the meet. The Cheney realy team which won the conference championships is intact, while the Wildcat team has turned in the best try up to date. Another feature of'the meet will be the Jones-Carpine feud. Carpine has a 9.6 century to his credit and also 21 flat for the 220. Jones however holds two victories over the "Cheney ace, and he is expected to make it three. Be Thrifty.... Save Money!

TO THE EDITOR o o Dear Editor: According to this week's Crier, the Sophomore class is going to subscribe '( a magazine for the Lounge. I'm a member of that class, and I'm glad •vek-e doing it, but—Have you seen '.he condition of those magazines in there now? 'I think something should be done. If the students who use the Lounge don't think enough of it to keep it looking nice, why should we have one? Those odd pages lying around don't help the appearance of the place, but most of all, more than one person may want' to read those magazines, and I get thoroughly aroused when I find part of a page torn out for some clipping. We have (hose old ones in the book store for that. I don't think we rate any^maga- zines if we're going to treat them that way. —An Irate Reader. Dear Editor: Perhaps the Crier can help arouse the proper authorities to action re­ garding the matter which I hope to call to attention.

In 1895 was inflicted upon a some­ what dizzy era—the Gay Nineties—a book that dealt with the high life of the upper crust orf Hades. Forming a club known as the Associated Shades—strictly a stag organization —this upper crust used as a clubroom a houseboat on the river that divides the defunct ancients from their un- defunct posterity. The name of this book was The Houseboat on the Styx. Its author was John Kendrick Bangs. Munchausen's Stories Included In the Associated Shades were such bygone magnificoes as Charles Darwin, William Shakespeare, Noah, Napoleon Bonaparte, and Soc­ rates. Excellent use is also made of Baron Munchausen, who tells a story or two. When this truthful Baron is or the verge of telling of an experi­ ence he had with Jonah's famous whale, Jonah himself appeals to Judge Blackstone: "I desire to apply for an injunction restraining the Baron from using my whale in his story. That ""whale, your honor, is copyrighted. . . . That whale is my stock in toade—he is my all." At more successful times the Baron does succeed' in telling stories which have since won prizes fof dozens of fellows in Liar's Contests. Darwin Taken For a Ride Insofar as there are "certain cli­ matic peculiarities" in connection with Hades, when we first stumble over the eminent Doctor Darwin, he is reading "an asbestos copy of the London- Times." Mr. Darwin's well- known theory of evolution is taken for a merry joy-ride. Regarding the, monkey-theory, there was no- doubt in Baron Mun­ chausen's mind that prior to the flood all men had tails. Noah and his sons had the help of a prehensile tail when they slapped the~ Ark together, ac­ cording to the Baron. Thackeray's Theory Theories for how Man came to lose his tail ranged from Munchausen's notion that they may have overwork­ ed it building the Ark to the theory of Thackeray that, since men of the Nineties were losing their hair by wearing derby hats, perhaps the an­ cients wore their hats on their tails. Curious, too, was the theory of Doc­ tor Samuel Johnson. He thought that Adam and Eve had been kicked out of Eden for taking a swing on the for­ bidden tree. He interpreted the ser­ pent as the tail, being the appurten­ ance that tempted them to the trans­ gression. As punishment Adam and Eve lost their tails, and the tail itself was compelled to work for a living and do its own walking. The snakes of the present day he believed* to he the missing' tails of men. Said he: "'Somewhere in the world is a tail for every man and woman and child. Where one's tail is no one can ever say, but that it exists simultaneously with its owner I believe." Shakespeare Sets Up Shop One of the mellower characters of the skit is he who once wrote about "that undiscovered country, from whose bourne no traveler returns." Fretting at the dramatic stagnation of the Hades Theater, he yearned to commute, between Hades and London. He wanted to rent an office in the lat­ ter city, and put out a sign something like this: ' "WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE, -Dra­ matist. Plays written _ while you. wait." • Bacon-Shakespeare Controversy To Lord Bacon, who claimed that tShakespeare had been his stenogra­ pher, to whom he had dictated Ham­ let, Shakespeare retorted: "I deny it. I admit you gave me a suggestion now and then so as to keep it dull and heavy in spots, so that it would seem more like a real tragedy tEan a comedy punctuated with deaths, but beyond that you had nothing to do with it." Since Mr. Shakespeare's famous au­ tographs were bringing a thousand dollars apiece on the New York mar­ ket, he was trying to get up a scheme whereby he would contribute an au­ tograph a week to'a syndicate, to be sold to the public. Said .Doctor John­ son: Johnson Cools Shakespeare "I'd rather have a morning-glory vine than one of iShakespeare's auto­ graphs. They are far prettier, and quite as legible." ~ In the last episode came the vil­ lain. Prior to the villain, Queen Eliz­ abeth, Ophelia. (Hamlet's girl-friend who went nuts), and Xanthippe (the wife of Socrates), invaded the House­ boat. Because there was a prize-fight down the river between Goliath and Samson, The Associated Shades were absent at the 'time. The coast was clear for the ladies and the villain. Seeing the opportunity, Queen Liz called up her pals,«.Lucrezia Borgia and Mrs. Caesar, who brought a half- SOCIAL CALENDAR Thursday, May 2 — Prof. Martin, lecture on Orient, 10 a. m., auditor­ ium.
