Dental Educational Council of Amen-, ca, standardizing agency for all dental schools. LOGAN PREDICTS UNION OF UNITED STATES AND CANADA That America and Canada will eventually be one, is the belief of Dr. John D. Logan, professor Oi Engfisn, who spoke before the Society ot ot. Andrews, Tuesday night, Nov. oU, at the Pfister hotel. "International amity amounts to nothing more than international loyalty," declared L r. Logan in his speech. FATHER FOX AT DEDICATION The Rev. Albert C. Fox, S.J., visited in Beloit on Sunday, Nov. 28, where he attended the dedication of bt. Jude's Parachial school. From there he traveled to St. Louis and returned to Milwaukee Friday afternoon. Local Branch Is Only Chapter to Sponsor Scholarships; Proceeds of Flower Sale to Aid Fund By HARRY A. FRIEDMAN, JR. Results of the flower sale conduct- ed before football games of the past season indicate that the Marquette chapter of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers will continue the practice in future years. The student branch of the A.S.M.E. initi- ated the project of selling flowers in school colors prior to football games with the intention of starting a tra- dition at Marquette. According to James M. Kelley, Senior Engineer, proceeds from the sale of these blue and gold carna- tions will be given toward the estab- lishment of a permanent scholarship endowment fund for worthy engin- eering students. The scholarship will be offered as soon as the princi- pal of the fund has grown so that the interest amounts to $100. At the present time each graduate of the College of Engineering con- tributes $5 to the fund every year for three years. The amount in the treasury is in excess of $500, but with the institution of the' flower sale the members of the A.S.M.E. hope to present the scholarship in the near future. The idea of the scholarship fund had its origin a year ago when the national A.S.M.E. held its convention in Milwaukee. Marquette members of the organization were instrumental in helping the Milwaukee branch to make the convention a ' success. In appreciation of the services rendered by the students, the Milwaukee branch gave the engineers $100. As far as has been discovered, the Marquette chapter of the A.S.M.E. is the only student engineering organization in the country to sponsor such an enterprise. f * Port ies "Approved By University Prof. That professors are now advocating the use of "ponies" is the latest news to come in the exchanges. Upsetting the popular belief of stu- dents in regard to the condemnation of the use of ponies, Prof. Aaron J. Brumbaugh of the Education depart- ment of Chicago university, claims that if used correctly, as a basis for comparison with the student's own translation, ponies are of more ad- vantage than a study of the vocabu- lary or dictionary. The use of ponies for the purpose of getting the literal meaning of words conserves time and stimulates the association of their meaning at the same time. Because of the analy- sis involved in the use of ponies, the results should be beneficial to the student. Extended Recess A Christmas Gift To M.U. Students Presenting the Rev. Albert C. Fox, S.J., president of Marquette university, in the role of all- University Santa Claus! He has is- sued a state- ment to the effect that the Christ- mas vacation will co ru- men ce Sat urday noon, Dec. 18, in- stead of on Thur s d a y, Dec. 23, as previo u s I y announ c e d. Classes will b e resumed Reprinted by o.n ^ue^ay, Courtesy of The Jan. 4, IHi/, Milwaukee Journal at 8 a.m. Father Fox The fact that many students live at far corners of the states, and that they would not reach their homes until Christmas day under the date first announced, prompted the faculty to recon- sider the vacation dates. Father Fox has also issued the usual pre- holiday warning about absences. Triple absences will be credited against anyone who cuts his last classes before the holidays, or his first ones after the recess. Name Faculty To Review Site For Memorial Final arrangements to secure the plot of land necessary for the erection of the Father Marquette Memorial near Ludington, Mich., will be completed Saturday, Dec. 11, by a committee of faculty members who were recently selected by Alpha Sigma Tau, all-University honor society, which has charge of the memorial movement. The committee, composed of the Rev. Patrick J. Lomasney, S.J., of the history department, the Rev. Simon J. Nicolas, S.J., dean of men, and John McDill Fox of the School of Law, will go to Ludington Friday, Dec. 10. Additional information has been obtained by Father Lomasney with the aid of the Wisconsin and Michigan historical societies, to facili- tate the location of the exact spot on which the death of Pere Masquette occurred. Calling for bids, selection of the monument type, and the letting of contracts will be supervised by a committee consisting of Arthur Moran, president of Alpha Sigma Tau, James Foley and Don Craine, honor society members, Allen Hoxie of the Dental School, and J. L. O'Sullivan, professor of Journalism, after arrangements have been com- pleted at Ludington. N'Western-M. U. to Argue Dry Issue Despite Protest Debate on the question, Resolved :<^as well as with Middle Western uni- That The Eighteenth Amendment Should Be Repealed Immediately, will take place between Marquette and Northwestern universities on Thursday and Friday, Dec. 16 and 17, in spite of protests made by members of the Women's Christian Temper- ance Union of Evanston, Ill. Objection to a debate of this sub- ject was based upon the assertion that its discussion has "poisoned the minds of students" and is equivalent to "wet propaganda." Complaint was registered by the W.C.T.U. with Walter Dill Scott, president of Northwestern university, but the Rev. Albert C. Fox, S.J., president of Marquette has not been approached on the subject. According to Prof. William R. Duffey, coach, the prohibition ques- tion is the favored subject of forensic discussion among universities this year. Marquette will debate the same question with teams from Can- ada and Eastern and Western schools versities. A negative team composed of Her- bert Jacob and Harry Edelstein of the School of Law, and Theodore Heller, College of Liberal Arts, will meet the Northwestern wranglers at Evanston, Dec. 16. Avin Sable, School of Law, and Jerome W. Fons, School of Medicine, and Herman F. Geske, College of Liberal Arts will uphold the affirmative side of the question at the City club, Milwaukee, on Dec. 17. Feeling of resentment toward the attitude of the W.C.T.U. in attempt- ing to annul the debate runs high at Marquette, according to opinions ex- pressed by students. DRAWING SCHEDULE FOR INTERCOLLEGIATE SEASON Approximately 32 teams from all parts of the United States are on the schedule prepared for the Marquettp debating squad this year. f VARSITY ACTORS PRESENT COMEDY FRIDAY, SATURDAY Will Give Play In Marquette High School Auditorium-Tickets Sell- ing For $1 Each By GRETCHEN COLNIK .

E. A. McFaul, in the role of the loose- torigued Chester Mullin, does everything to kill Kincaid's favorable interest, but the day is saved by Elsie who comes to the rescue just in time. The banquet scene, which occurs in the second act, is one of the funniest situations ever written into a modern comedy and provides innumerable laughs. In this scene Charles Riedl, Sophomore in the College of Liberal Arts, will be seen as toastmaster, while Arthur Gilbert, Senior in the College of Liberal Arts, has the role of Tom Baker, and Nance O'Connor, Freshman dental hygienist, that of the stenographer. Others in the cast are Nat Frenn, Arthur Hankwitz and Victor Blomstrom.

Four distant religious faiths are held by the foreign students; namely, Catholic, Protestant, Hebrew, and Buddhist.
