Capacity House Witnesses First
DR. WARFIELD,
Presentation of Week's
Performance
"The Romany Theatre" raised the
curtain for its second production,
"Mr. Pirn Passes By," at 8:15 Monday night, before a crowded house
composed of Lexington's leading fanciers of dramatic productions, for a
week's run of the sparkling light English comedy, by A. A. Milne, one
of England's premier playwrights.
The comedy has for its setting, the
home of a country gentleman, one
George Marden, J. P. in Buckinghamshire and the theme of the play is
centered around his wife, Olivia,
Marden, their niece, and ward Dinah,
her fiance Brian Strange, Lady Marden, the sister of the head of the
house, and Mr. Pirn, the aged globe'
trotter, who thru his inability to remember names, causes the Marden
family to be thrown into a dilemna
The representation of the home in
which the plot is enacted is furnished with antiques supplied by friends
of the theatre, and each antique
seems to vie with the other in depicting the rich traditions that are
held sacred by the Marden family.
Hanging above the mantel in the liv
ing room of the home is an original
painting of a beutiful English lady
done by a famous Spanish artist several centuries ago, and is presumably
an ancestor of the Mardens.
The story opens with the announce- (Continued on page 4)

Lecture Given to Women in
Chapel at Fifth Hour
Last Wednesday
Margaret Herdman, director
of the Chicago Collegiate Bureau of
Occupations,
spoke in chapel last
Wednesday of professions in general
which are open to women and citied
experiences .she had had in securing
positions for women.
She urged girls to follow their natural 'bent, saying that those of an inquisitive turn of mind should do research work and those who like details should do secretarial work. She
spoke briefly of the qualifications and
demands of social service work. She
said in choosing a field one should
consider how crowded it already is
and the necessary preparation,
The chief requisite in getting a place
in a business office is experience;
other professions,
special technical
training.

FACULTY MEMBERS ARE
ACTIVE IN RELIGIOUS WORK

77

The Y. M. C. A. secretary, Bart
Peak,, class of '17, last week sent out
a questionnaire to all members of th
faculty to ascertain how many of them
were actively engaged in church
Sunday school work. This was done
because it is often unjustly charged
that the faculty of the University is
composed of a group of professors
who are not christians. It is often
even charged that the faculty contains
a number of infidels and atheists.
Of 235 faculty members who receiv
ed questionnaires more 'than 100 an
swers were received. Practically all
the answers were from the faculty
members who are teachers in Sunday
schools, Y. M. C. A. classes or mem
bcrs of church and Sunday school
boards. Fifteen professors stated that
they were teachers of Sunday school
classes, seven arc officials in their
Sunday schools and eleven are mem
bers of church boards. Twelve fac
ulty members were both teachers
the bunday school and members o
stat
the church board. Twenty-lou- r
school
cd that they were Sunday
teachers in their home towns before
moving to Lexington.
An additional eleven members of the
faculty are teaching Y. M. C. A. Bi
ble classes in the dormitories, frater
nity houses and boarding houses. The
Y. M. C. A. Bible classes are attended
by groups of students, numbering from
10 to 30 in a group.
Two other fac
ulty members not mentioned before
are on the advisory board of the Y.
M. C. A.

A total of 77 professors and instruc
tors are engaged in religious work of
some kind, the answers showed, and
most of them arc engaged in religious
work for the benefit of the students
of the University. This means that
one out of every three members of the
faculty is assisting in religious and
moral training of some group of students.

COOPER OUTLINES
ASSOCIATION'S VAILUE

The A'.umni Association fills a need
both for the University and for the
Alumni. It carries to the alumni a
continuation of the ideals of the University, a knowledge of its development and information as to its difficulties or the obstacles which confront its advancement. Likewise, the
Alummi Association gives to the University the hopes and aspirations of
the alumni fo. their Alma Mater. An
institution's greatness and, to a large
extent, its standing, are measured by
its alumni and their sources. A mutual relationship amd dependence are
thus developed which are' encouraged,
fostered and made effective by an
alumni associat'on.
The Alumni Association has been
the one organizat'on which has constantly insisted upon the advancement
of the University. It has developed
favorable public opinion and has unit- ed a ereat croup of former students
as a force in forwarding the interests
of the University.

to as "Westinghouse Current."

Honor Mki Cleveland
Friday evening the Alpha of Kentucky chapter of Tau Beta Pi, honorary engineering fraternity, entertained with a dinner in the palm room of
the Phoenix Hotel, which was followed by a theatre party.
The palm room was very attractively arranged for the occasion, the
dinner tables being placed in the form
o a Bent, the badge of th efiraternity.
Beautiful lighting effects were obcandles of
tained with numerous
brown and 'white, the colors of the
fraternity.
The purpose was the recognition
of Miss Katherine Cleveland, of Lexington, and the engineering class of
1924, for high and distinctive scholarship during her course. Miss Clevc
land during the first two years of her
course attained the highest scholastic
standing in her class.
In the constitution of Tau Beta Pi,
there is no provision for membership
for women, hence Miss Cleveland
was ineligible. By an act of the convention of Tau Beta Pi when it met
in Lexington in October, 1923, it was
voted that recognition should be given Miss Cleveland in the form of a
specially designed pin, for use in this

Gaulard and Gibbs originated the alternating
current system in Europe. Their system was impractical in many respects, but had been used with
some success for lighting.
George Westinghouse became interested, and immediately recognized that the weakness of their
system lay in the design and principles governing
the transformer.
He devoted the resources of his organization to
the development of the transformer. When he made
it a practical unit, alternating current, with its vast
commercial advantages, then became possible.
The beginning of the bitter struggle by George
Westinghouse for the supremacy of alternating
current goes back to 1885 and 188C. Remarkable
progress has been made since then and voltages as
high as 220,000 are in commercial use today.
Engineering owes niuch to the
and
fighting qualities of George Westinghouse.
