Henry SAYS THAT SCIENCE WON THE AVAR "We are not developing enough highly trained men," said Dr. Robert A. Millikan, professor of physics at the University of Chicago, in his lec- ture here to the student body Frf- day afternoon. One thing the war taught of great importance was the great necessity of the board of research which every allied country had. Not one sugges- tion out of 10,000 wnich the people sent in to the board was of any value and ninety-nine out of every hundred had been thought of and carried farther by the groups of scientists and engineers who had been gathered to handle the prob- lems of the war. This shows that the country which depends on the people have little to work on. Dr. Millikan closed with the fol- lowing statement: "Now since the war is over we have forgotten our research boards. We started but went to sleep. We are still asleep and if we don't wake up and find funds and compete with Germany amd all the other nations we shall not keep our place in the front. The sector will pass from us and go to those who are better able to hold it."

It was a good performance and showed very well the training that has been given the students in physical cul- ture during the year. The program started with a grand march which was executed exceed- ingly well. The following event by the freshmen women was applauded continuously. It was a remarkably good piece of work. The audience was given a chance to see real class in the form of boxing matches. If the talent in the college is devel- oped in this line the school can put out a very creditable crew of boxers. .Midgets Play Bosket Ball "" The spectators were next treat- ed to one of the very best played basketball games of the year between the Brownies and the Mid- gets of Edison school, the Brownies winning a close and exceedingly fast and hard fought game by the score of 2 to 0. The little fellows showed some remarkably good spirit and were right at it from the word go, little Johnnie Bohler and Charles Sanders showing the best form. The clowns probably made the hit of the evening by their comical en- tertainment during the entire pro- gram. They were not only comical but were also very clever in doing trick work both on the floor and on the bars. Advanced Gym Good The aesthetic dancing given by six of the advanced students in the wom- en's department was well done. The girls showed some i-eal talent in this line and deserve to be commended In their work. The work of the girls in the advanced gymnastics showed up even the boys who have been taking drill. They performed their moteiaients precisely and in un- ison while the men did not seem to know in a few cases which was left and which was right and could well afford to take a few lessons from the girls. The work of the advanced gym- nastics in the men's department was nothing short of remarkable in some cases. The antics on the horizontal "bars attracted more attention and applause than any of the other events. Their work will no doubt interest other men in school in getting out and learning to do I some of the tricks themselves. i Wrestlers Entertain The two wrestling matches were also very good, no one being able to obtain a fall or decision. The match between Captain Logan and Coach Glahe was the second one on the program, Pearson and Guljord giv- ing a good exhibition in the first event. Taken as a whole, the show was a huge success and was a credit to both the students and their Instruc- tors. The program in detail was aa follows: 1. Grand March. 2. Exhibition of Class Work Freshmen Women. < 3. Setting up exercises (men). 4. Boxing—Members of boxing class. ... Folk Dances —Sophomore Wom- en. 6. Dumb Bells (men). 7. Aesthetic Dancing (women). 8. Gymnasium Games (men). 9. Gymnastic Dancing (men). 10. Aesthetic Dancing (women). 11. Indian Clubs (men). 12. Advanced Gymnastics— imental class (women). 13.

SAYS THAT SCIENCEWON THE AVAR

"We are not developing enoughhighly trained men," said Dr. RobertA. Millikan, professor of physics atthe University of Chicago, in his lec-ture here to the student body Frf-day afternoon.

One thing the war taught of greatimportance was the great necessity

of the board of research which everyallied country had. Not one sugges-

tion out of 10,000 wnich thepeople sent in to the board was ofany value and ninety-nine out ofevery hundred had been thought ofand carried farther by the groupsof scientists and engineers who hadbeen gathered to handle the prob-lems of the war. This shows thatthe country which depends on thepeople have little to work on.

Dr. Millikan closed with the fol-lowing statement: "Now since thewar is over we have forgotten ourresearch boards. We started butwent to sleep. We are still asleepand if we don't wake up and findfunds and compete with Germany

amd all the other nations we shallnot keep our place in the front. Thesector will pass from us and go to

those who are better able to hold it."

RECORD CROWD VOTES IGYM SHOW A SUCCESS

IPerformance ' of Advanced dassoaamd downs Well

Received

The annual gymnastic exhibitionwas held Friday before the largest

jcrowd that has been assembled inthe gymnasium this year. It was agood performance and showedvery well the training that has beengiven the students in physical cul-ture during the year.

The program started with a grandmarch which was executed exceed-ingly well. The following event bythe freshmen women was applaudedcontinuously. It was a remarkablygood piece of work. The audiencewas given a chance to see realclass in the form of boxing matches.If the talent in the college is devel-oped in this line the school can putout a very creditable crew of boxers.

.Midgets Play Bosket Ball ""

The spectators were next treat-ed to one of the very bestplayed basketball games of the yearbetween the Brownies and the Mid-gets of Edison school, the Brownieswinning a close and exceedingly fastand hard fought game by the scoreof 2 to 0. The little fellows showedsome remarkably good spirit andwere right at it from the word go,little Johnnie Bohler and CharlesSanders showing the best form.

The clowns probably made the hitof the evening by their comical en-tertainment during the entire pro-gram. They were not only comicalbut were also very clever in doing

trick work both on the floor and onthe bars.

Advanced Gym Good

The aesthetic dancing given by sixof the advanced students in the wom-en's department was well done. Thegirls showed some i-eal talent in thisline and deserve to be commendedIn their work. The work of thegirls in the advanced gymnastics

showed up even the boys who havebeen taking drill. They performedtheir moteiaients precisely and in un-ison while the men did not seem to

know in a few cases which was leftand which was right and could wellafford to take a few lessons from thegirls.

The work of the advanced gym-nastics in the men's department wasnothing short of remarkable in somecases. The antics on the horizontal"bars attracted more attention andapplause than any of the otherevents. Their work will nodoubt interest other men in schoolin getting out and learning to do

I some of the tricks themselves.i

Wrestlers EntertainThe two wrestling matches were

also very good, no one being able to

obtain a fall or decision. The matchbetween Captain Logan and CoachGlahe was the second one on theprogram, Pearson and Guljord giv-

ing a good exhibition in the firstevent.
