Anyone wishing to send for an application blank is urged to get in touch with Mrs. Motter, dramatics instructor. Ctendance, considerable interest T* created in the Miami area, nd most important, it created in every attendant an ardent expon-ent of future Institutes. Too much stress cannot be laid n the importance of the round table discussions which were an integral part of the Winter Insti-Itute. Seven representatives of the generation’s literati constructively exchanged their views at the discussions. It is at such forums that =5-4 history is created. If enthusiasm Sfi remains as marked as it is at the termination of the Institute there need be no misgivings as to its future success. As a part of the Civic Works Administration’s program the University of Miami has received an appropriation to be used in creating jobs for worthy students. The students who will receive employment are those for whom it would be otherwise difficult financially to remain in school. The work they will do will be entirely new projects created for their benefit and which will have some bearing on the educational value involved. Dr. J. S. W. Pearson has been appointed administrator of the C. W. A. at the University Those who failed to see either of the two performances of “It Did the Trick” should cancel all other engagements and plan on attending the final performance at the Temple Theatre this evening. A splendid cast which combines the best University and Miami talent together with the able direction of Opal Euard Motter has produced a play of which all participants may well be proud. Dr. Everett Smith, the author, is well iknown to Miami students and his Play should prove of especial in-Iterest to them. Too much praise cannot be accorded the University Concert Orchestra and their conductor, Walter Sheaffer, for the splendid programs they have ac-|Corded at the dramatic productions.

Drama League Is Offering Foreign Study Scholarships Debators Leave Sunday Morning On Florida Tour Three Colleges On Schedule For Monday and Tuesday Federal Advisory Lends Emergency Aid to University Needy Students to be Given Part-time Employment As Civil Workers At six-thirty Sunday morning the debating team of the university will leave on a state-wide tour of Florida. The team will meet St. Petersburg Jr. College at St. PetersburgMonday morning ;South-ern College at Lakeland, Monday evening and Rollins College at Winter Park, Tuesday evening. Due to illness in the family, Mr. Kenneth R. Close, director of the debating team will be unable to accompany the debators. James Mool, assistant, will be in charge of the trip. Others making the trip are Robert Rosthal, Nestor Houghtaling and Robert Boyer. The Miami team will uphold the affirmative of the Pi Kappa Delta question, “Resolved, thatthepowers of the president of the United States should be substantially increased as a settled policy”. All debates will be non-decision. The University has contacted the Federal Advisory committee on Emergency Aid for a share of the proposed $30,000,000 which Congress is to appropriate for the assistance of students who have been, or are about to be, forced to discontinue their education because of financial difficulties. The C.W.A. commission has arranged with the University authorities to provide the school with funds sufficient to give part-time employment to a percentage of the school enrollment. The apportionment will be left up to the University, with certain definite conditions imposed. The work given must be created for this particular donation. Also, it must be proportioned between men and women students in the same ratio as the enrollment. Maximum pay is fifteen dollars per month, the hourly payment to be the same as that paid University workers. Dr. Gifford and Mr. Nelson are undertaking the land in the Riviera Section of Coral Gables, across from Ponce de Leon High School, known as University Park. Dr. Gifford expects to develop a natural park, introducing nativ; trees and other plants which are ornamental and which in certain cases may be facing extinction. Mr. Nelson and Dr. Gifford are preparing to re label the ornamental planting of the streets and parkways of Coral Gables in cooperation with the City of Coral Gables. (Continued on Page Six) Institute Is Valuable Activity” Says Dr. Orton Lowe, Its Founder Local Residents and Winter Visitors Help Swell Attendance “I feel that the institute is first of all an activity of value to our own students in bringing them into first hand contact with men and women who are making modern literature,” said Dr. Orton Lowe, in summarizing the results of the third meeting of the Winter Institute of Literature, which came to a succesful conclusion last Friday. “This Institute of Literature is English 41 in the College of Liberal arts; but adult local residents and winter visitors who have attended for the three years’^ meetings have found them an enjoyable intellectual winter sport,” Dr. Lowe added. The institute was officially closed with the last lecture of Padraic Colum Friday afternoon, at which he discussed the writings of Rud-yard Kipling, Walter de la Mare, and A. E. Housman. In giving the closing message President Ashe said that when Dr. Lowe first came to the University in 1928 he had conceived the idea of having this course, as Dr. Lowe had been in charge of a summary Institute of Literature at Penn- sylvania State College. The cpurse he said, has been a decided success in every way. Edward Davison opened the first session of the Institute with a discussion of British poetry since 1890. He was followed by Percival Wilde, the playwright, whose subject was “Toward a Modern Drama.” Padraic Colum was also there the first year, and spoke on the revival of Irish letters. The other two speakers were Zona Gale, whose subject was “How Far Shall Novels Reflect Current Taste,” and Carl Sandburg, noted Chicago poet, used as his theme “Old, New, and Present Day American Poetry.” Vachel Lindsay had been engaged to lecture on Mr. Sandburg’s subject, and after his death on the fifth of December the University was fortunate in securing Mr. Sandburg to substitute. Ole Rolvaag, author of “Giants in the Earth”, had consented to lecture but early in the college year found it would be impossible to meet his engagement. Study in a slightly different field was introduced in the second year of the Institute by Sylvanus G. Morley, archaeologist and lecturer, who spoke on the civilization (Continued on Page Six) Merits of N.R.A. Told At Relations Club Meet The International Relations Club held an open forum meeting Thursday night in the Social Hall, for a discussion of the merits of the N.R.A. Walter James Everson gave the principal address of the evening. Membership in the club is based upon two weeks attendance at meetings and acceptance by regular members. Stamp Display Is Open to Visitors Colorful and Unusual Stamps On Exhibition Next to Office u yy It Did the Trick Under Direction of Opal Euard Motter Two Initial Performances Are Marked Success at Temple Theatre A stamp exhibition that would be a credit to a university twice the size may be seen between the hours of 12 and 2 in tne small room past the office. Davis Webb has mounted and arranged the stamps. Unusual and beautiful stamps from the collection of Dr. Zook, Henry Lewis, Harold Humm and Webb make up the display. Dr. Zook has loaned large sheets of uncommon United States commémoratives, many of them printed in two colors, which came out between 1920 and 1930. From the other collections are series of stamps showing battle scenes, architecture and figures. There is a set of Guatemala in which all the stamps are done in dull shades, another from Nyassa printed in several colors showing animals and unusual scenes. Students and faculty are invited to inspect the display at the above named hours. If sufficient interest is evidenced, the display will be entirely changed next week, Dave Webb said. Plans Being Made For State Exhibit Chamber of Commerce Plans Improved World’s Fair Show The Florida State Chamber of Commerce, having taken over the Florida Exhibit at the world’s fair in Chicago for the coming summer, are making extensive plans for the improvement of the show. They have divided the state into administrative districts which will campaign to obtain funds for the maintenance of the exhibit. Mayor E. G. Sewell is in charge of the southeastern district. Radical changes are being made at the fair, particularly in the layout of the grounds. The midway will be on Northerly island, with exhibits from foreign nations, and a mammoth Ford exhibit substituted. Florida will have 4,000 square feet of additional space for their garden, which will be enclosed in glass, at no extra cost to the state. Dr. Everett Smith’s three-act play, “It Did the Trick” was presented Wednesday and last night and will be presented for the last time this evening at the Temple theatre. The play which is directed by Opal Euard Motter combines talent from both the University and the Civic theatre. It is sponsored by the University of Miami players. Dr. Smith is one of Miami’s best known and admired pastors. He originally wrote the plot as a scenario for Universal Film Corporation and then rewrote it in its present dramatic form. Dr. Smith is the author of several other plays, and a book. The setting of the first and third acts of the play take place in Kentucky, the home state of Dr. Smith. The other act is laid in Spanish Honduras, where Dr. Smith has visited. A well known cast will act the play, many of whom have played the leads in the Civic Theatre plays as well as the University production. Eleanor Miksitz is taking the lead and will be remembered as “Mary” in the Civic theatre play “Servant in the House”. Following that she played the foundling girl brought up in the convent of “The Cradle Song”, also a Civic theatre play. At the university she has appeared as a flapper in “Seventeen”, the young bride in “The Playgoers” and the prevaricating leading lady in “Love In a Mist”. Roxburgh Lewis, who takes the supporting feminine role, took the lead in Eddie Hay’s play “Where Is My Necktie”. Aileen Booth and Andrew Shaw, both prominent in Civic theatre productions will be remembered for their part in the “Romancers”. Others of the cast are Stephen Kite-Powell, Sara Kle-feker, Victor Levine, Maude Sanchez, William Maloney, Charlotte King, James Neary, J. W. Robertson, Robert Rosthal, and James Thayer. The program of the University concert orchestra under the direction of Walter Sheaffer is: Overture, “Merry Wives of Windsor”, Nicolai; flute and clarinet, “The Butterfly”, Bendix, Charles Stalt-man, Laurence Tremblay; “The Flight of the Bumble Bee”, Rim-sky-Korsakoff ; gigue from “Suite Anciennes”, Hadley. Franklin Harris is managing director of the production, others on the production staff are C. W. Motter, stage technician; Victor Levine, properties; Tom Magee, electrician; and Andrew Shaw, scenery design. Admission prices are 25c, 50c, $1, and $1.25. Students will be admitted on activity books plus one-half the regular admission price except in the case of the unreserved twenty-five cent seats. A large student attendance is expected at the final performance this evening. K
