Tuesday, February 11, 1919  The Daily Iowan State University of Iowa  Page Three   TRACK MIXER IS THIS WEEK  Athletes to Look Over Season's Prospects at Big Meeting  "Watch Iowa in Track" is the slogan of the big track mixer to be held in the University armory tomorrow night.  Given under the direction of the track "I" men, the purpose of the mixer is to glance over the season's prospects and to create a larger interest among new men and freshmen in athletics. A program of boxing and wrestling has been arranged.  Only two men will be missing from last year's state championship team while several "finds" have been reported. The schedule to date includes the quadrangular Drake, Ames, Grinnell, Iowa, indoor meet at Ames, the indoor conference at Chicago, the Drake relays, the home meet, the state meet, and possibly dual meets with Minnesota and Coe.   CHANGE IN Y. W. SERIES  The order of talks for the Y.W.C.A. series has been changed and Dean W. F. Russell will speak this Wednesday on his experiences in Siberia. Prof. Charles Bundy Wilson will talk next week on "The Business of Being a Friend." The two following weeks will complete the series.   Vera Cornick, sophomore, and Adna Woodward, freshman, are ill with the mumps.   Members of Alpha Tau Beta sorority and a number of their friends were entertained at a Valentine party at the home of Mrs. Opal Brown Friday evening.   TESTS DES MOINES CHILDREN IN MUSIC  Under the auspices of the Iowa child welfare station the department of psychology is making a survey of the musical talent in the fifth and eighth grades of all the schools in the city of Des Moines. Graduate students in the psychology of music are doing the work.  Each child is measured with reference to a number of talents and a chart of his capacities is furnished to the school and to the child. The measurements are made by means of phonograph records and contain the tests which have been standardized by Prof. C. E. Seashore and his associates through many years of specialization.  When the survey is completed the results are to be published as a monograph of the child welfare station, with the hope that it may serve as a model survey for the public schools of the country.   PHILOSOPHICAL CLUB TONIGHT  The Philosophical club will meet Tuesday evening, Feb. 11, at 8 o'clock, at the home of Mr. and Mrs. C. C. Bunch, 214  1-2 S. Dubuque street. The Rev. Paul Heisey will read the paper of the evening.   Senior engineers at Purdue university are planning inspection trips to large industrial centers this year. These inspection trips, which are valuable in the experience and practical knowledge gained, form and important part of the course at Purdue.   Roller skating parties are being introduced as a new amusement at the University of Illinois. The woman's athletic association is in charge of this feature. The parties are conducted like dances, with regular dance music and programs for the different numbers. The gymnasium faculty entertains with feature skating.   A change in the new income tax bill is that state officials, including the university faculty are not exempt from paying taxes upon salaries received from the state, according to The Evening Missourian. The law which has been in effect exempted all state officials from paying such taxes.
