Rotunda Reverberations
Review of the News All the earmarks of turmoil are manifest in the latest news of Japanese aggression in China, although Mr. Hirata. in a very peaceful manner, has Just issued a coldly-received invitation to England and America to a new naval conference. Advancing behind a screen of tanks and heralded by an air barrage, the Japanese troops have moved into Chahar. The bombers have shelled a territory near the Great Wall a bare fifty miles from Peiping. Chinese troops could not withstand the attack of such a highly mechanized force and were forced to retreat. Japan is probably sounding her warning to Russia, with whom a war is believed to be inevitable. By extending her possessions out into Mongolia with the cession of Jehol and Chahar she will be within shelling distance of Kalgan. a strategic point on the Trans-Siberian railroad and may be in a position to effectually divide her enemies. China and Russia, and successfully break the Russian outlet to Vladivastock. With one real war in the world and two threatened combats one already stimulating aimed conflict—it is difficult to see where all this talk about peace comes from. The League of Nations was foiled in its attempt to stop the butchering in the Chaco by the non-co-operation of the U. S. with the agreement to sell arms and munitions to Bolivia but not to Paraguay. The refusal was explained on the grounds that Congress could not allow an embargo on arms to one country but must prohibit the sales to either. Since Paraguay would not submit in League settlement, it is thought that she will concentrate on the Bolivian border and finally bring her enemy to her knees. The other belligerent rumor comes from Africa, where a mas; sacre by Abyssinian nomads in Samaliland precipitated a crisis with Mussolini. It is hard to think of modern warfare in an Ethiopian jungle--in fact, it would be nothing short of murder.

"Practical" Freshmen Summer Session Show Upperclassmcn Under New Policy As Others See Them Contined from page one Methods and observation courses given in the college will be devoted to the study and interpretation of the work in the demonstration school and Individual conferences will enable the students to get expert advice on their particular problems. Courses of this kind wi:i deal with the social sciences, the language arts, mathematics. and elementary science. Teachers, principals, and superintendents may thus study the difficulties presented by the new curricula under favorable conditions and for college credit. A course in library technique will be given by a trained librarian for credit in the English Department. This course will help teacher-librarians and others responsible for starting school libraries and providing and caring for the large amount of materials required by the new Virginia curricula. A broad offering of academic courses in the upper years of the college will afford the students the opportunity to carry on work leading to the bachelor's degree soon to be required of all teachers in Virginia. By taking such courses at Farmville. they can add to their academic attainments and equipment in an atmosphere charged with the professional spirit and in daily contact with other teachers who have problems similar to their own. The personal contacts of such a school sometimes prove as valuable as the class work. The summer school will drawits faculty mainly from the regular faculty of the State Teachers College, supplemented by teachers of superior training and rich experience from the outside. Although the enrollment of the college at Farmville has been restricted in the fall, winter, and spring quarters to women students, during recent years an increasing number of men have found it convenient during the summer months to avail themselves of the rich offering of this institution with its favorable central location. Among these men students are teachers and administrative officers in the schools and college students from other institutions who have wished to secure supplementary credits to be transferred to other colleges which they attended. Special arrangements will be made in the summer of 1935 for the accommodation of men students and measures will be taken Confined from page one i to give them the full advantages it hev would fight of the colleges.

T. C. students seines as they see them in 1945. but the more practical-minded freshmen brought to the attention of Sing-goers Saturday night an excellent chance to "see themselves as others see them." The curtain opened on a scene of the Rotunda. Joan of Arc, Aunt Lucy, and all-right there on the itage. Will Scott rushed on the stage, tearing her hair and lamenting her Dramatic Club responsibilities. Soon the audience recognized Will as impersonating Meg Hemdon at a drastic time before ■ Dramatic Club play is to be presented. (Will is also to be congratulated on her worthy portrayal of Will Scott). Frances Parker, as Addie Nortleet, offered a solution to Meg's trouble by suggesting that they go to a show. Frances did not fail to put Addie's pep into the part. She even remembered to wear tap shoes and say "Oh yeah" to Tac Waters whose quiet dignity w.is well portrayed by Nelhvyn Latimer. Nancy Pobst, as Bonnie Lane, and Margaret Fraley, as Louise Hyde, gave a most pleasing repnxluction of a scene that may be witnessed almost any day in Rotunda. Bonnie, of course. vai weighted down by her international worries, besides having a sneezing spell right before M try " Louise soon came to Mi M civ's aid, however, and m.mailed to offer her support while Bonnie checked her hearty for a minute.

Popular Song Hits Feature Junior Show Contined from page one Caroline Byrd, Grace Eubank sang, "Waltz of Love." Kitty Smoot and Rachel Joyner accompanied her with a graceful waltz. "I'll Stay Warm All Winter." was sung by Margaret Farrar. For an encore Margaret sang, "Take a Number From One to Ten." Grace Eubank took the spotlight again with "June in January." The chorus was composed of Lucy Potter. Sallie Perrow. Rachel Joyner. Marion Umberger, Billy Wilkinson, and Hazel Smith, costumed in ruffled organdy dresses. "Hands Across the Table," by Margaret Farrar. was accompanied by a chorus; boys: Kitty Smoot, Sue Waldo, Katherine Harvey, and "Tib" Simmerman: girls: Claudia Harper, Dorothy Deans, Mildred Poter, and Sallie Perrow. They were dressed in dinner clothes and seated at small tables. Lucille Jones added. "With Every Breath I Take." Lelia Sanford introduced the grand finale, "Mr. and Mrs. is the Name," as the preacher. The bridesmaids. Virginia Hall, Henrietta Salsbury. Caroline Byrd. and Hazel Smith, entered with the groomsmen. Kitty Smoot, Billie Rountree, Katherine Harvey, and Sue Waldo. The bride and groom were happily united after years of struggle for success. The b:eak between acts was filled by "Tub" Oliver, director of the Hampden-Sydney orchestra, who sang, "For You," and "I Can't Give You Anything But Love, Baby." and "My Gal, Sal." Soft lights and elaborate evening clothes added greatly to the production. The success of the production was the result of constant practice and hard work by the majority of the members of thi junior class. The ticket receipts j exceeded those of the past two years.
Hapgood, Lecturer, Speaks Thursday Contined from page one tween labor and capital by giving the worker a voice in the conduct of the business as well as a share of the profits. In his lecture Mr. Hapgood distinguished between the meaning of the terms: Fascism. Communism, and Freedom. He explained these forms of government by pointing out the political, economic, and social conditions in various nations today. "In Russia," Mr. Hapgood explained, "the people regarded the Czar as second in power to God. The legislature had no power at all; it was ruled by the Czar. During the war the Czar was ovei thrown and the business men took the governmental rule in their hands. After the government changed hands, Great Britain and the United States both sent a commission to Russia to view the situation. The reports came back that the Russians were happy in the new regime. Unfortunately this was not true. At this time a great leader created by the Revolution stepped into this smouldering land of discontent. Lenin gave two things to Russia: he said good-bye to war with its horrors, and he did away with the powerful landlords who were the enemies of the peasants. In brief this is Russia before she embarked on her career of communistic control by which she has revolutionised her people and nation. Communism is the desire for equality in all phases of life. "In Italy there is a Facsist rule headed by Mussolini. Fascism is the substitution of the rule of many to the will of a few. Mussolini holds supreme power over the nation. The people are led by this man. "Freedom is America's slogan. 'Hie depression is met most successfully in nations where the aids of living are highest and the people are the most sati and Italy are not he standard of living. Amei ndeavoring to achieve this. Through education lies one of our biggest hopes for a successful government."
