Opera 'Rosamund
Rehearsals Begun
Rehearsals for the opera Rosamund, which is to be presented at
the Guignol theater during the week
of April 15, is progressing rapidly
under the auspices of the music department.
The complete musical score has
been received and rehearsals begun
on it by the Philharmonic orchestra which will play the score for
the performance. This overture is
said by critics to be one of the
most pleasing included in any opera
now being presented on the stage.
The opera will be assembled
within two weeks for act rehearsals. The choruses have already
been picked with this in view. The
mixed chorus promises to be quite
a novelty, being the first time in
the history of the University that
boys and girls have been assembled
to cooperate for such a presentation.

New Production
Of Guignol nm
Be Rare Treat
"Giaconda," the third production
of the Guignol players under the
direction of Frank C. Fowler, will
open the night of March 18. "Giaconda" by Babriel D'Annunzlo,
is to be an offering of rare artistic and dramatic beauty. The
original cast has been changed
slightly for the opening performance.
Miss Georgetta Walker, Kappa
Kappa Gamma, has been selected
ti
to play the part of Giaconda
in place of Miss Margaret
Lewis. A minor part of Beata, the
child, will be played by Miss Louise
Dudley, a senior in the Arts and
Science College.
Frank Fowler, director of the undertaking, announced yesterday that
the play would be staged in two settings. The first part of the scenic
effect will embrace a Southern Italian summer room. A sculpture studio will furnish the second part of
the scenery. Special music accompaniment, an innovation, will be
used to establish a suitable background for the presentation.
"Giaconda" is indeed an ambitious undertaking for the Guignol
players, but Judging by the plays
they have presented in the past,
there Is little doubt that they will
do it justice. The cast is composed
of Miss Georgetta Walker in the
title role of Giaconda Diantl. Miss

Eleventh Annual Tournament
Will Start Next Thursday
in Men's" Gym Under Auspices of University.
By Lawrence Crump
With the close of the varsity basketball season at the University of
Kentucky, followers of the net game
on the
will focus their attention
eleventh annual state high school
basketball tournament which begins
next Thursday in the Men's gymnasium.
Regional tournaments at Murray,
Owensboro, Horse Cave, Louisville,
Lawrenceburg, Georgetown, Richmond, and Ashland, will open today
in an effort to select 32 teams,
Classes A and B boys and girls, to
be present for the opening whistle
at Lexington on March 14. The
32 district meets were played last
week.

Many fine teams will be eliminated in these regional meets, especially in those districts where as
many as four or five strong teams
are located. The sixth regional
tournament at Georgetown appears
to have toughest competition with
the Lexington Senior High, Covington, Dayton, and Georgetown battling for the crown.
Danville's Admirals appear to have
the edge in the fifth region, while
St. X of Louisville is expected to
take not only the fourth regional,
but the state meet as well. Ashland Is as usual a heavy favorite in
the eighth district but their chances
for another state title are slightly
dimmed since last year because of
recent defeats both in and out of
Kentucky.
Among the officials secured for the
tournament is Frank Lane, whose
high brand of officiating is enough
in itself to guarantee the success of
the tournament. He will be assisted
by BillIansen, Bart Peak, Travnl-ce- k
and Head, all of whom have
been well received in recent tournaments.

Hoover s Career Marked By
Perseverance and Adventure
By E. M. Templin
High adventure and unparalleled
achievement marks the brilliant
career of the man who now presides
as Chief Executive of our great nation. Only last Monday, an orphan
boy from Iowa stood in a drizzling
rain pledging allegiance to one of
the greatest flags In all the world.
Herbert Clake Hoover, engineer,
scholar, financier and humanitarian,
of the United
Is now President
States.
Our President is a "self-mad- e
man." He started out in life as a
poor orphan and the large degree
of success and popularity he has
achieved can be attributed to his.
own efforts along with hard work.
President Hoover was born 55 years
ago in a little Quaker colony located at West Branch, Iowa. When
seven years of age he was left an
orphan and from that time on his
own self reliance was rapidly cultivated.
Multifarious, circumstances carried this boy from his home in Iowa
across the continent to Oregon
where he worked on a truck farm.
Eventually, however, he became af

filiated with his uncle in the real
estate business at Portland, Ore.
The desire for an ""education so
that he might some day become a
engineer led young
Hoover into Southern California
where the Leland Stanford University was then being built.
Seizing upon every opportunity
to gain admittance to the school
he engaged himself to do odd jobs
about the newly constructed campus as a help in paying Ills way
through college. In 1895, this man
graduated with the "Pioneer Class"
as a mining engineer.
A few years slipped by and with
the outbreak of the World War we
find President Hoover as one of the
greatest present-da- y
engineers. His
uncanny ability to make mining
undertakings succeed where others
failed, stamped him as the engineer
who seldom falls. The World War,
however, curtailed President Hoover's
career as an engineer.
With unflinching zeal President
Hoover set about to establish some
means of alleviating suffering and
