THE CARDINAL
VOL. 3 LOUISVILLE, KY., THURSDAY, JANUARY 10, 1935 NO. 17
LITTLE THEATRE
PRESENTS NEXT
PLAY JAN. 14-16
Wilson, Koch, Kendall, Grady
Cast In “One Sunday
Afternoon”
JAMES FAGAN AUTHOR
The Little Theatre Company
will offer James Fagan’s play
“One Sunday Afternoon” as their
next presentation, January 14, 15,
and 16 in the Playhouse.
Miss Ruth Wilson has the fem-inine
lead. Others in the cast are
Lawrence Koch, Paul Kendall,
and Vivian May Grady.
The plot revolves around a den-tist
who had lost the girl he loved
to another man twenty years ago.
The dramatic tenseness occurs
when this man comes to the den-tist’s
office as a patient and the
dentist deliberates whether to kill
him by gas or not. At this point
the audience is carried back to the
romance of two decades ago in the
park.
One interesting feature of the
production is that the four sets
of the play will be on wagon
stages.
Jere Shaw is in charge of the
construction of the sets. Mrs. Os-car
Raidt is the property mistress.
Mrs. Howard Ashley assisted by
several other members of the
Little Theatre Company will be
hostess during the intermission
when coffee and cakes will be
served in the foyer.
Students may secure single ad-mission
for 40 cents by presenting
their U. of L. Players ticket cou-pon
for identification.
In Review
Emmet V. Mittlebeeler
FOR THE FIRST
TIME, a Congress has
p rovisions of the
Twentieth Amend-ment
or the Lame Duck
Amendment. This is
the first time in his-tory
that no Congress-men
took seats after
a defeat in November.
A number of colorful personali-ties
may be found in both houses.
Among the Democratic repre-sentatives,
strange to relate, is a
Negro, Representative Mitchell of
Illinois, who defeated another Ne-gro,
Oscar De Priest, Republican,
last election.
The youngest Senator-elect is
Rush D. Holt of West Virginia,
who will not attain the constitu-tional
age of thirty until next
June. Disregarding the precedent
of Henry Clay, who became Sena-tor
before the age of thirty, and
taking the advice of Democratic
leaders, he will wait until his thir-tieth
birthday before taking the
oath of office.
Also present is Theodore G.
Bilbo, one-time paper clipper in a
Jolas To Open Series
Of Historical Recitals
Beethoven, Bach, Romantic,
Contemporary Composers
To Be Featured; First
January 20
Jacques Jolas, dean of the
School of Music, will present the
first of a series of four historical
recitals at 4:15 Sunday afternoon,
January 20, in the Crystal Ball-room
of the Brown Hotel. This
first recital will present a few of
the outstanding masterpieces of
Beethoven.
The other recitals, featuring the
music of Bach, the romantic com-posers
(Schumann, Schubert, and
Brahms) and contemporary com-posers,
will be held one a month
in the same place.
These recitals are open to the
public.
Campus-Wide Drive
Set For Chest Fund
Student Council Takes Initia-tive
In Campaign In
University
Tentative plans for a Universi-ty
of Louisville Student Com-munity
Chest Campaign, to be
centered about the campus, were
announced by members of the
Student Council Tuesday.
The drive, if undertaken, will
occur during about the same
period as the city-wide drive, or
possibly several days sooner, ac-cording
to Merrill Gyles, member
of the Council.
Plans for the campaign have
been unofficially under considera-tion
for some time. Although de-tails
are not yet worked out, these
will probably be announced in next
week’s Cardinal.
The solicitation, according to
George Schuhmann, president of
the Student Council, will be two-fold
in purpose. Equal division,
according to tentative plans, will
be made between the Community
Chest and the University Nursery
School, which is short of funds.
The drive is not without prece-dent.
Although it is not recalled
that any such movement has been
sponsored by local university stu-dents,
other institutions have suc-cessfully
undertaken student Com-munity
Chest drives.
LORING’S ARTICLE
APPEARS IN PRINT
“An Auxiliary Lens for use with
the Concave Grating,” an article
by Dr. Ralph A. Loring, head of
the Physics Department of the
University of Louisville, and Mr.
J. B. Green of Ohio State, appear-ed
in the December 1934 issue of
the Journal of the Optical Society
of America. This article together
with others in preparation is a dis-cussion
of the work done by them
in recent research projects. This
article deals particularly with a
new type of lens which they re-cently
designed and which has
proved value in spectroscopy.
NYE FLAYS ARMS
MAKERS, PROFIT
MOTIVE IN WAR
Senator Calls War, Prepara-tion
International Racket
At Forum Sunday
NEXT SPEAKER JAN. 15
“War and war preparedness
form a racket worse than any ever
conceived in the mind of a Dil-linger
or of a Babyface Nelson—
an international racket that knows
no flag, but favors the one with
which it can do most business.”
So Gerald P. Nye, United States
Senator from North Dakota and
chairman of the Senate committee
investigating munitions, told the
Louisville Free Public Forum at
the Memorial Auditorium last
Sunday evening.
Senator Nye was introduced by
Dr. R. A. Kent, president of the
University of Louisville.
The Senator launched a bitter
tirade against the duPonts, Sir
Basil Zaharoff, and other leaders
in the munitions industry.
“The duPont family is the most
titanic, most controlling influence
in America today” through their
war-time activities, he asserted,
claiming that they received 400
per cent return on their capital in-vestment
from the war.
The last war was characterized
as a war to end war, the Senator
said, yet today the United States
is preparing for war on a larger
scale in peace time than ever be-fore
in history. Every nation, he
continued, has increased the costs
of supporting her army and navy
30 to 40 per cent since 1914; the
United States has during the same
period increased her Appropria-tions
for the army and navy 197
per cent.
This attitude of our government
can be traced to a few men and
institutions “who have come to
learn that there is such a thing as
profit in war,” Senator Nye be-lieves.
“If war is inevitable, it is be-cause
the greed for profit is in-evitable,”
he said. “And if the last
war was to make the world safe
for Democracy, then the next war
will be-to make the world safe for
‘DuPontcracy’
Danger of war with Japan is
merely an apprehensive habit of
mind, the speaker stated, but in
the event a Japanese-American
war should*come American muni-tions
would be used by both sides,
sold to each by the American
munitions industry. This industry
was the only one in the United
States, he said, which increased its
exports during the depression.

Mid-Semester Course
Planned By Law School
The class schedule of the School
of Law has been arranged in order
to accommodate a second semester
entering class, Dr. J. A. McClain,
dean of the law school has an-nounced.
The new arrangement was made,
the dean stated, after a number of
students of the College of Liberal
Arts, as well as students from
other colleges, had expressed their
desire to attend the U. of L. law
school next semester.
Indications are that as many as
twenty students will enter the
School of Law in February. Those
entering will be given beginning
courses in subjects regularly
taught at the school, instead of
being placed at the disadvantage
of competing in classes with stu-dents
who registered at the be-ginning
of the first semester.
The largest enrollment in recent
years is predicted for the second
