The debut will be staged at Fans Field if the Three I park is in condition. The condilion of thc Millikin team is about as doubtful as the weather and the playing field. Rain and cold weather, plus spring va¬ calion, have played havoc wilh Coach Johnson's drills and it is a certainty thai the U'vi I'hie will not be able to cause the Wildcats niucli worry, come tomorrow afternoon. Coach Johnson did sneak in a practice on thc weathemian Tues¬ day. It was a bad sneak, evidently, for the obnoxious character lurned on both spigots Wednesday after¬ noon and it was a swell clay for ducks. .'\t the Tuesday session Johnson lined up an infield with Junie Mar¬ shall at first, Don Craig at second, Eddie Clauter at short and Bill Giraitis, third. In tbe outfield were Walt Spilman and I'aul Lipinski, W'ith Cecil Garriolt and Nick Gil¬ bert as the other possible gardener.

The jiilching assignment against the Wildcats probably will fall lo Herman Mehmken and Clifford Hopkins, freshman left hander from Mulberry Grove. Archie Van Ausdal is slated to do the catching. Northwestern is making a tour through middle Illinois, playing Illinois College conference nines, and are scheduled to play Illinois college today. Fifteen players arc on the tri]) wilh Coacli I'aul Stew¬ art. Decatur business men are selling tickets for the game, which will be 25 cents per head.. Students will be admitted via athletic book. "TAMING OF SHREW" TRYOUTS WILL BE MONDAY, TUESDAY Tryouts for the Town and Gown I'laycrs' commcneement produc¬ tion, "The Taming of the Shrew," will be held in room 104 ne.\t Mon¬ day and Tuesday, April 15 and 16, at 4:30 and at 7:30. .\ Shakespeare play is always given at this time of the year. Mr. McNabb, director of Town and Gown I'laycrs, an¬ nounces thai ibis play is a splendid opportunity for a number of men; there are only two major parts for women, and two minor parts. Katherine, thc shrew, and her sister Bianca are the two female leads; a hostess and a widow are minor parts. Petriiccio, a comedy part, is one of the male leads. Gru¬ niio and Christopher Sly arc low comedy relief; three prominent character parts are those of Bap¬ tista, Granico, and Vincentio. Four straight juveniles are Hortensio, I.,uccntio, Hiondello, and Tranio. There arc also interesting minor parts for men. Mr. McNabb suggests that any¬ one who comes to tryouts would do well to read the play first, as they must read at random with no regard for the part tbey would like to have.

By E. S. Boyer "Wars are not made; they just happen." Perhaps so. That may have been true when war was a polite game for professional sol¬ diers. Hut one who wishes to be at all realistic can hardly sujiiiose that modern wars are not made. Too many loday belong to the fast-growing "inultitiide of the un¬ deceived" to suffer such an illusion. What witb the expose of the mu¬ nition-makers, rapidly mounting armaments in eacb country, diplo¬ matic maneuverings on the basis of war-fear, economic clasbings, nalional alliances for defense, little is left for the iniagination but some final bloody holocaust too tragic to conteniiilate. F.urope fast approaches some determined destiny. But how can lliat be, someone asks, when pat¬ ently in the light of present day knowledge even the man in llie street sees war shorn of engrossing chivalry and much old time patri¬ otic fervor. Vet the mania exists and never more potently than in Furope at the present hour, that peace may be secured by gigantic military preparedness. The trai,'- edy has already been enacted in thc loss of an ethical-spiritual bond thai nuist buttress an? enduring civi'ization. Hcr real moorings in spirit and ideas arc well nigh gone and she has left only the lerrible weapons of force. Thc real dan¬ ger resides iu this fact. Tiurope could still save herself by the use of dilTerent dominating ideas and IK'.tiently w o r k i n g out proper friendly relationships on the basis of lliem. Uul al present the illu¬ sory method of force seems strong¬ ly in the ascendency. Each conn- try, armed to tbe teeth, flatly de¬ nies that it wants war. Yet it pre¬ pares solidly for it. If Europe plunges ill, il is highly doubtful tbat wc could remain out. At least we would be dragged into the world depression that would surely follow. Normally it would not be su|i- posed that the European nations would strike out into war during the iiei^iod of great preparation such as that iu process now. All seem loo jittery and neurotic. Although it was discpiieting to note with¬ drawals from high activity in other fields. More likely the pres¬ ent temper will pass aud a season of self-discipline and development of national confidence ensue. Such a time gives opportunity to sense some hopeless economic entangle- (Continued on Page 2) Scholarship Drive Launched by Alums at Dinner Meetings Brooks, Canode Go to Champaign for Econoniics Seminar Don lirooks and Hill Canode of the economics seminar visited the University of Illinois and inter¬ viewed Ihe dean of ihe S^diool of Agricullure in behalf of the rehab¬ ilitation jiroject being carried on in Decalur.

Theta U's Become HiU Billies in Week of Wild Ozark Life Millikin Hill-Billies, these Theta U's! They arc now specialists on wildcats and other ferocious ani¬ mals after having had several en¬ counters with them in the Ozarks during spring vacation. They left on Tuesday, taking everything with thein from bathing suits to wool blankets. Mary Wilson, Dora Hewitt, and Gladys Jones peeped onl from beneath bags, cameras, flashlights, boats, bread, comforts, pillows—and odd bits of kilchen- ware, tossed in the back seat. They managed, however, to get a good view of the scenery and the water when the creeks had to be forded. Our old prexy (Sullivan, lo youl pushed on the accelerator and that Plymoulh flew from bill lo hill. (Please nole—for the sum of five (5) dollars, wc will swear we used any type of gasoline or oil. Phone 8854). Outside of Marianne Williams scrambling the eggs before vve reached Alton, and breaking the coal oil lamp chimney so that we enjoyed our evenings by fire-light, tbe trip down was without accident. In fact, there was no excitement unlil we started back in Onyx cave with onr flaslilights. Thc slow drij) of water from the stalaclitcs, and the sound of disturbed bats (jilus a reminder of Floyd Collins through the courtesy of Miss Sul¬ livan) was almost too much. In order to gel back from the cave, we must all ford a rocky stream whicii was fed by springs. One pair of rubber boots was all wc possessed—so one person went across, threw the boots back, and a second started. Gladys would never make a Babe Rulh. Her re¬ turning boot landed in the middle of the stream with three people stranded on the other side. Little Mary Wilson decided lo recover the stray lamb. She took off her shoes and stockings in order to keep them dry, and waded right into the icy stream, carrying the shoes and stockings in one hand, and fishing for the hoot with the other. She found the boot, but dropped one of her shoes—so everyone proceeded to wade across. .\ice sli;irp rocks, icj' water—and home lo the fireplace. But no tri]) in old Missouri would be perfect without a fishing pole— in fact, enough to go around. Re¬ sult? No fish—but one snake. Dorothy pulls out her little forty- four and shoots that spreading viper right through his middle. ."Xnd Marianne, Dora and Gladys all feel him to see how it felt to have the skin you love to touch. And then — at night — everyone went gigging—in hopes of frogs for breakfast. That gigging affair didn't last long—due to disturbing noises in ihe woods. In fact Gladys heard Iwo wildcals—(ah, a fonr- 'eggcd?—no, a two legged whistle!) —and Mary Wilson saw a wildcat. (Will someone please tell us the difierence between an oppossum and a wildcat,) .'Knyway, no frogs. Consequently, no frog legs for breakfast. Provisions were low. We were 13 miles from town wilh only a Httle flour, one can of milk, two eggs, and some Staley's Decatur syrup. Dora was ahnost frantic. In fact there was great danger of starva¬ tion before we left that noon. Mary was in favor of shooting a bear— bul Sullivan decided to make pan¬ cakes instead. What delicious pan¬ cakes! Marianne insisted that one couldn't make pancakes without pancake flour—but Dorothy did. They were certainly up and coming cakes, too! Gladys dropped one and it bounced right back up in her plate. (Never mind, Sullivan, we notice Dora ate six.) We haven't lold you about onr pet fish! Well, sir, Marianne strung a hook with a juicy worm and caught a fish. We named him "Rainbow"—and trained him to walk around out of water. He had a lovely time—dancing around in the cabin—until the morning we left. Mary Wilson forgot and left a pan of water on the floor and Rainbow fell in and drowned. We all left the cabin in mourning—a group of Theta Upsilon hill-billies ¦—on iheir way back to civilization. in cooperation with a student slalf of assistanls. I^asl year Millikin presenieii "The .Mercliaiil of Venice" in conneclion with the all-Millikin weekend. The play was very well received by the Indents and enlhusiaslic inleresi was shown in the school's prograni. lis year because there is exten¬ sive work now being carried on under the direction of Professor Kiefer to acquaint students with Millikin, it was decided to droji the all-Millikin weekend and present instead ihe play alone. To lliose who are interested in seeing Milli¬ kin campus life we exlend an invi- lalion to visit us at any time it is convenient. By calling at the of¬ fice of Mr. I3eakins, tbe registrar, you will be shown over the entire caminis. This event is a part of the ex¬ tensive drive to acquaint students wilh Millikin. Possibly those stu¬ denls from surrounding cities to¬ night and tomorro'iv will be your classmates al Millikin next year. The towns represented by high school students are the following: Horace McD;ivid, Miliikin alumnus and late prominent Decatur citizen, attended a luncheon at a well known De¬ calur club several years ago, and afler eating a chicken din¬ ner decided thai chicken livers were invigorating. He imme¬ diately notified other Millikin classmates of his find and every Thursday the group journeyed to the club to eat chicken livers—and talk about old days at Millikin. Today this group, minus ils founder, who died recently, is composed of W. R. McGaughey, Forrest Wikoff, John Schudel, Dr. R. Xink Sanders, Grover Patton, Joe Gauger, and J'>;iiik Walk¬ er.
