Frank L. McVey Speaks at First of 1932 Series on "Causes of World Depression" FIVE REASONS GIVEN Pres. Frank. L. McVey had as his subject, "Causes of World Depression," when he addressed the members of the International Relations club In the lecture room of McVey hall Monday night. The meeting was the first of the 1932 series which will continue until the latter part of March. Doctor McVey was presented to the assembly by Mrs. J. B. Miner. Doctor McVey gave five specific reasons for the present depression. In the first place, he named the World War. in that it destroyed a large amount of capital, property, and man power, and In all countries engaged in the war it developed large producing agencies for the manufacture of war materials which when peace came were utilAll ized for additional production. over the world an immense activity In the production of raw materials and agricultural production far beyond the increase in populations followed the war. In the second place. Doctor McVey said that the breakdown In currencies Is responsible for a part of the world depression. There are only five countries now maintaining the gold standard and In practically all other countries there has been a breakdown and a necessity for changing currency. The building of tariffs was what Doctor McVey named as the third influence, adding that in practically all countries there has been the setting up of barriers to world January 30: University of Wash-- 1 ington and Kemper Military School. trade.

Dean W. D. Funkhouser, of the university graduate school, resigned as secretary of the southern conference because he will be on a tour of scientific research shortly after the end of the first semester. Few rulings were made at the meeting which are important to the University of Kentucky. The most drastic regulation states that students will hereafter have to pass three fourths of their work In order to be eligible to comjjete In athletics. Kentucky has been abiding by this rule In the past, so no change will be made in the requirements for eligibility of Kentucky students. Two of the other rules passed were that broadcasting of southern conference games will be prohibited, and that no one will be allowed on the player's bench at conference games except the players, coaches, and doctors, or persons having some with the legitimate connection team. There has been much proprotest to these rulings and it is bable that the conference will reconsider them at the next meeting, which will be held at Atlunta during the basket bull tournament In February. Reasons advanced for the regulation were that the radiocasting of games decrease the attendance and tliat newspuper photographers had been taking places on the player's bench at many of the games.

APPOINTMENTS WILL TAKE EFFECT AT ONCE EDITOR SUBMITS BEAUTY PHOTOS Guignol to Give Gorki's Tragedy Of Russian Life Maxim Lower Depths," Gorki's famous Russian tragedy, will be presented Thursday evening, January 14, at the Guignol theatre by the members of the dramatic production class under the direction of Frank Fowler. The play depicts the sordid existence .of a household of thieves and drunkards of the lowest type. Jealousies and quarrels, tragedy comand death, are their every-da- y panions, and are to be expected and borne without complaint. Although their lot Is hard, they are reconciled to their fate and do not expect any more from life than they receive. A typical Russian atmosphere is created by the one scene, a combination living, dining, and bed room, which remains unchanged throughout the play. Gorki remains true to Russian style by making his characters just as they are in real life, and by not giving to them the customary but untrue beauty and virtue of the general run of characters. The cast will be as follows: Pepel. John Watts, Jr.; Sahtan, Lillian Collins; Luka. Eugenie Beck; Natasha, Hilda Cooper; Nastlah. Marian Schuler: Wassillssa. Barbara Margaret Kvaschyna.
