, VOL. 5 ___________ Pan American Day Will Be Observed By Freshman Class First Year Students Will Donate Plaque to be Dedicated The entire student body of the university will be dismissed T'ues- j day morning at 10:30, April 14, when a tablet commemorating the good will and brotherhood that exists between the University of Miami and the colleges and students of the countries of Latin-America will be dedicated as part | of the university’s celebration of j Pan American Day. The freshman class of the university donated the placque, which will be mounted over the entrance of the university building and will signalize the relation of the university with the Latin-American countries. To become Pan American in scope has been one of the major objectives of the university and has been determined largely by reason of its location in the most southern part of the United States and immediately adjacent to the West Indies, within easy reach of South America. The dedication will be the first | event of the city wide celebration ; of Pan American day that President Hoover set aside for April 14. The dedication exercises will commence at 10:30, with the Rev. Don Henshaw giving the invocation. Mayor C. H. Reeder and Mayor C. Lee MacGarr have been asked to attend the unveiling along with the consuls of the Latin-American Countries. The public is invited to attend the services. Dr. Victor Belaunde, professor of Latin-American Institutions at the university, will be the main speaker and will tell of the work of the university in the development of the Pan American spirit. Earle Howard, president of the freshman class, will make the presentation to the university and Dean Henry S. West will accept. Kerdenand Belaunde, son of Dr. Raphael Belaunde, who is now in Peru, and a girl selected to represent the university will also take part in the ceremony. Phi Eps Will Give Prize Plays to U. of M.

April 9. 1931 Chain Store Head Speaks On Modern Business Policies .____ J Predicts Many Changes in Work of Scientific Developments * ’ , i Great changes in the business world will take place within the next five years, is the opinion of W. T. Grant, head of the W. T. Grant chain stores, who spoke to the Business Administration Classes of the University of Miami Thursday morning on “The Newer Phases of Merchandising”. Mr. Grant said that many changes have taken place in the last ten years, and with thé newer discoveries that science is producing, the business men must keep step and develop newer and sounder business methods. Toj do the most good to the greatest number of consumers is the aim of modern business, and if the newer methods interfere with the older ones, they must make way, Mr. Grant said in touching upon the chain store movement. Anything that is good for the great consuming public is fatal to combat, he added. Business needs youth with energy and full of life, said the well-known chain, store magnate. He explained that the Grant Stores select many of their executive officials direct from colleges and then train them from four to five years to fit themselves to the position. Mr. Grant went on to explain that the growth of his own stores started from the first $1000 that he was able to save. He attributes the rapid rise of his stores to the sound principle of thinking in terms of the customers' needs, and advises students to always bear in mind the public opinion and to think in terms of the consumer. THIRTY STUDENTS MAKE HONOR ROLL The thirty students who are on the Honor Roll for the first six weeks of the second semester form the smallest group of honor students the University has ever had, with the freshman class taking the major honors.

The party s other candidates triO be revealed at a later date It has been announced however, that they will indorse Warren Grants' candidacy fqr Chief Justice. President Ashe Expected Here on or About April 13 “I expect Dr. Ashe on or about April 13th, but I have not heard definitely,” said Dean Henry S. West, acting President of the University, today. A special assembly will be held to welcome Dr. Ashe. The members of the faculty of the university will further welcome Dr. Ashe with a special luncheon j or dinner held in his honor. ZETA PHI DANCE TOMORROW NIGHT Sororities to Sponsor Dances On Successive Fridays; Lambda Phi Next Week Zeta Phi sorority will sponsor the first of a group of dances to be held in the Girls’ Gym at the University next Fridas' night. Students and faculty will take part in entertainment features. Music will be furnished by Bob Downes orchestra. Various other dances will be i held in the Gym by certain other girls’ organizations in the near future. The dance will start at 9:30. Marjorie Shewmaker, Doris Glendenning, and Katherine Yates compose the dance committee. The Lambda Phi sorority is giv- j ing a shipwreck dance the following week, Friday, April 17, in the girl’s gym. Aileen Booth is chairman; Bettye Sullivan, heads the finance committee; Kay Daniels, publicity; Louise Paxton, entertainment; and Priscilla Sweeting, decorations. Bob Downes'orchestra will furnish the music. Admission, Gobs, $1, mates ditto. Symphony String Quartet Gives Concert Program The symphony string quartet of the University of Miami presented another of its chamber music concerts last Tuesday night in the Recital Hall of the Conservatory by popular request. An extremely well received program included Beethoven’s “Quartet in G Major”, and “Quartet”, j by Arnold Volpe, conductor of the University of Miami Symphony Orchestra. The players, Sol Nemkowsky, first violin and concertmeister of the symphony orchestra; Robert Kistler, second violin; Sol Zimber-off, viola; and A. V. Czerney, cello, were assisted by Margaret Weaver Reid, well known contralto from New York. She was one of the first singers to be heard over WEAF and was soloist at Marble Collegiate Church in New York, i She sang a group of Schubert songs. Okcll Is Master Of Inconsistency, Says G. Mitchell Phi Alpha Not Connected With Ticket, Aaaerta Party Leader “George's debating experience should have taught him that mere assertion is a long way short of proof,” said Guy Mitchell, temporary chairman of the Independent executive committee, when j interviewed by a Hurricane reporter in regard to the series of political articles by Mr. Okell now appearing in the Hurricane. “It looks as if he had fatally overplayed his hand, such as it was, by his absurd accusations concerning ; the origin of the measures passed upon by the Independent Party,” Mitchell said. “His general assertion that Phi Alpha fraternity had anything to do with the selection of our candidates has been pretty well refuted already by the recently published statements of Grant Harris and Franklin Albert, whose reputations for veracity is about as good as anybody's in this particular neck of the woods. “But I’d like to say a word or two about his other charges. According to Okell we have lied in stating that the ratio of fraternity to non-fraternity people in our present slate of major candidates is that of 3 to 2. When, pray, has membership in honorary societies, or honorary membership in social organizations, entitled the holder to full “fraternity” status on the | campus? Okell contends that Mr. Eggum, our candidate for president, is an S. A. E., a Delta Phi Inn, and an honorary member of Phi Alpha, and as such is ineligible to nomination on the Independent ticket. Has George forgotten that only a year ago he backed for president, on what he apparently considered a perfectly orthodox Independent ticket, a certain Mr Franklin Parson, who was, strangely enough, an S. A. E., a Delta Phi Inn, and an honorary member of Phi Alpha, and who, as much i through Okell’s efforts as anybody else's, was subsequently elected to the office he now so ably fills? And as for Warren Grant’s being a Delta Phi Inn, George might as well have found me ineligible last year because of my membership in Rho Beta Omicron and the Iron Arrow. Come ' to think of it, Franklin Albert was a Delta Phi Inn when running for prosecuting attorney, and Louis Jepeway no less than President of the Judge Whitfield Club. So, with Cora Sie-plein a president of Zeta Phi, last year’s Okell-supported Indepen-<Continued on Page Four) , The University of Miami celebration of Pan American Day will be brought to a climax by an “M” club benefit dance at the Miami Woman’s Club building, Tuesday, April 14, committees announced today. Proceeds from the affair will go toward a fund to purchase sweaters for the varsity football men. A round of varied entertainment is promised by the sponsors. Music ! will be furnished by Bob Downes and his University Orchestra. The committees in charge include Franklin Albert, Bill Walker, Lloyd Solie, BobDownes, and Grant Harris. Rhendal Butler will assist them. NO. 14 University Will Inaugurate First Summer Session Courte* to be Offered In All Department* By Faculty The University of Miami, following in the footsteps of colleges throughout the country, will inaugurate its first summer session under the direction of Dean Henry S. West on June 15, extending through July 25. The university, only institution of higher learning on the seashore of the eastern coast, will allow its students full enjoyment of this and many other facilities, scheduling all classes in the morning so as to permit recreation at the ocean in the afternoons, in addition to tennis, golf, fishing and boating. Its duration will be the standard six-weeks term, offering courses in all departments under the regular faculty of the university and under visiting professors and instructors.
