Sunday, March 30, 1919 THE DAILY IOWAN STATE UNIVERSITY OF IOWA PAGE FIVE WHAT OTHERS THINK Is the University of Iowa to have a reputation for bad manners and poor sportsmanship? Our basket ball team trains for [long] weeks in order to play with teams from other colleges and universities. We go to the games, and [unreadable] when the umpire makes an [adverse] decision, or when one of the opposing team makes a good play. The sportsmanship, indeed, and fine appreciation of the work that the men on the squad have put in for Iowa to make them feel ashamed at the way we treat our guests. The University brings here for our enjoyment persons of real ability to entertain us. We show our appreciation by walking out in the middle of the performance. No one would treat a guest in his own home as he treats the guests of the University. [unreadable] time must indeed be very valuable if he cannot wait for the finish of such an entertainment as the [MacEwell] concert, or if he must start to rattle his program and twitch in his seat all during the last two numbers. If we were putting on an entertainment before a supposedly intelligent audience, and received such treatment as we gave Mrs. [MacDowell] last Wednesday evening, what would we think of that audience? What would we think if one of these guests of the University [should] yawn and walk out in the middle of a Dramatic club play, for instance? The guests of the University are our guests; and it is [unreadable] to ex[unreadable] to them the [unreadable] that we expect from them. GRACE ALTSCHULER Students may go back to the old habit of toting pencil boxes if deemed Seashores desire that each student carry a pencil and a knife with them, [unreadable] carried out. The only thing that troubles the law-abiding student, though, is that he may be [unreadable] carrying concealed [weapons?]. NEWMAN CLUB [unreadable] An interesting program [was?] given at the last meeting of Newman club Wednesday night. The main address was given by the Very Rev. W. [unreadable] Shannahan on [“Cat unreadable] Phil [unreadable].” A solo by [unreadable] O’[unreadable] and a violin and [unreadable] elec[unreadable] by Misses [Frances?] and [unreadable] were musical numbers. [unreadable] Schmock gave a reading and [unreadable] Fitzgerald, the delegate to the [unreadable] national convention at Greeley, [unreadable], reported the action of the [convention?] [advertisement] PASTIME THEATRE SUNDAY MONDAY America’s most popular Actress NORMA TALMADGE in her very latest and best picture “THE PROBATION WIFE” See the stunning gowns she wears. They are Beauties ADMISSION 10c-20c AMATEUR ANNETTES “Every body in”, shouts Marion Lyon to the girls in black jersey bathing suits and gay colored caps who are sitting on the edge of the pool dangling their feet in the water. A big splash—two or three of the bravest are in. The rest trot down the rubber matting to the shallow end of the pool, cautiously climbing down the steel ladder, and wade around where the water is waist high. Others grasp the railing, with their arms behind their heads and their feet extended kicking and splashing feebly. “Now, try the scissors kick, bending the one knee, keeping the other straight, and bringing your feet together with a snap,” thirty girls lined up on both sides of the pool wave their feet and splash some more, as the, “breaking waves dash high”. After this preliminary hardening process the mermaids are ready to try the depths. They float out on their backs slowly at first with their partners walking beside them or standing ready to help if they can’t reach the other side unaided. The swimmer is all doubled up, her cap is almost off, her eyes closed very tightly, and her whole face wrinkled and anxious. But finally, after she has “gone under” several times; swam into deep water, become frightened, tried to stand up, and finally had to be rescued by the life saver, the time comes when she can really swim and dive and “Oh, Boy, aint in a grand and glorious feelin’?” Let The Iowan be your letter GETS COLLECTION OF HUMMING BIRDS Humming birds ranging in size from the bumble bee to the sparrow are included in the valuable new collection just received at the University of Iowa from the Louisiana state museum. Some thirty species, mostly Central American forms, comprise the collection. The humming bird collection is considered the finest of any specimens received at the university museum in recent years. Only a single species of humming bird inhabits the temperate climate, the ruby throat. The Central American birds are much more gorgeous in color than our familiar species and highly ornamented. The collection was procured through a former student of the museum methods at the university, Alfred M. Bailey, now curator of birds at the state museum in Louisiana. [advertisement] Garden SUNDAY and MONDA Y NAZIMOVA in “OUT OF THE FOG” A big 7-reel feature [advertisement] Foolishness More than that—it’s ineconomy to mail your laundry home. All you have to do is phone 294 and we will call for and deliver it. You save postage, time, and trouble. New Process Laundry “The Pride of Iowa City” PHONE 294 [advertisement] Keep Your Boys At Home Thousands of soldiers from overseas and training camps are, after brief visits to their home towns flocking to the big cities in hopes of getting jobs and enjoying for a change a taste of big city life. It develops, however, that few of these men are getting jobs. The cities have their own quotas of returning men to take care of and are giving them preference. The result is that the labor market in the larger centers is already glutted. Men without jobs are money are walking the streets hungry. Begging and crime are on the increase. This is bad for the boys and bad for the big towns and the remedy is simple. Keep your boys at home— see that they are given the facts about the situation in the larger centers. It is the plain duty of every citizen to interest himself in this matter. First National Bank CHEMISTRY CLUB MEETS Regular meeting of the Chemistry club will be held Tuesday evening, April 1, at 7:15. All new members are expected to be present at this meeting. A social hour will follow the meeting. “But time is out of joint, O cursed spite That ever I was born to set it right.” murmurs the editor, as she observes that, in spite of editorials, several city clocks still wilfully register strictly individual time. UNIVERSITY LIBRARY HELPS IN RECONSTRUCTION The University library has sent twenty-five books from the duplicate collection to the National Committee of the United States for the Restoration of the University of Louvain. Every large university in the United States is sending books to aid in the restoration of the ruined university. Commerce club will meet Tuesday night at the Commercial club rooms. Harry Raymond will be the speaker of the evening.
