By KARL VOGEL
Supported by forty gaily attired
choristers, and the University Little Symphony orchestra, ten principal soloists will appear at eight,
oclock this evening on the Memorial
prehall stage in the
sentation of Gilbert and Sullivan's
comic opera. "Patience." Under the
direction of Prof. Carl A. Lampert
and Miss Iva Dagley, this celebrated
satire on one of England's most
amusing periods, when maidens
Jilted their loyal Dragoons to grovel
at the feet of pseudo-poet- s,
promises
to furnish hilarious entertainment,
with no admission charge.
Irene Foster and John Beam will
enact the leading roles of Patience
and Bunthorne, with Mary Eleanor
Clay, Gladwys Lewis, Mary Louise
Durham, Helen Smith. John Lewis.
Morton Potter, Miller Wiley and
Carl Stutsman in the supporting
cast.
The story of "Patience" deals with
the amorous struggle between "Bunthorne" Beam and "Grosvenor"
Potter to win the hearts of the
rapturous maidens. Brother Beam
has the inside rail at the outset as
evidenced by the women's opening
chorus, however he finds it difficult
to win the heart of one of the maidens, Patience. He seems to be gaining In her favor however, until Dark
Potter comes
Horse "Grosevnor"
pounding down the backstretch to
cop the comely Patience, and leave
Bunthorne with nothing but a Illy
for consolation. The fickle maidens
of the chorus return to their former
loves, the military men of the Thirty-fDragoon Guards, and apifth
parently everyone is destined to live
happily ever after, with the exception of Bunthorne who seems
doomed to a life of lonliness.
Extensive plans have been made
for costuming, stage setting, and
lighting effects, so that the performance will offer one of the entertaining highlights of the summer
season.

are logical but allow us to quote Mr.
Johnson's attic Ic:
"How narrow are the paths to which we confide out selves each day. Routine stuff comprises
our everyday life, and we go merrily on our way
blithely ignorant of the interesting things that
are going on all around us. Font th year .students
pass daily by buildings they have never even
entered, perhaps ignorant of the name of the
building or what goes on inside.
" This campus of outs is a complete city almost
Wc might even secede from the
city of Lexington and call ourselves the Univcr
City. There isn't time or space to wholly outline the possibilities therein, but mention of a
few of the parallels will open up more of the
possibilities for you to think about.
"Let's start from the ground up and go back
lo the earth. Out on Rose street, and extending
for acres and acres, our Univcr City has a
farmland tilled and cultured as model
farms should be. There only the best of produce is raised. There are cows, horses, sheep
and other livestock. It is a rather complete farm
and is capable oT producing sufTicent foodstuffs
for our population.
"From that farm the foodstuffs could be
brought to the various buildings housing our
population, and there be sold through the Commons and other dining halls. We have our hotels
in the form of dormitories, and residence halls.
There are clubs for the socalites. We call them
fraternities. We have athletic teams representing our city. They belong to a league.
"Rut back to the original premise that students know very little about the campus. Few-arthe students who have every risked an hour's
time and climbed to the museum of Geology in
the Administration building. There our curator
has done tedious work in an effort to display his
specimens in an interesting way. The old library
building houses another wonderful little museum of archeological exhibits well worth seeing.
"On one corner of the farm there is a dome-shapebuilding in which is located a telescope,
through which on Monday nights the public
may star gac to their hearts content, and ask
questions of the learned Dr. Downing who is
host.
"Discovery, an intriguing word, tempts our
scientific men to spend long hours every night in
smelly laboratories in the chemistry building.
The bacteriologists arc doing extraordinary work
in the basement over there. And the same may
be said of the psychology department. Bit by
bit these men of our city are whittling away the
barrier that stands in the way of fact.
"1 here used to be a zoo on the campus. When
we lost Dean Anderson vve lost the zoo, but cities
don't need zoos. But cities must have lawyers,
and we have a whole building full of them. We
have a clinic, and it's free, which is a very advanced idea. We have a chapel with its conspicuous spire and clock. We have our own
telephone system. We have our own heating
system. We have our own newspaper and printing plant.
"A 50,000 watt ladio transmitter is at our service every clay. A symphony orchestra and a good
band will play for us scheduled concerts. Musical organizations arc without end. No city could
wish for more.
"An art department contributes more than its
share lo our cultural life, and outdoes itself with
almost continuous exhibits of the belter works.
Next dooi is an excellent little theatre which
pioduics five or six better plavs every season,
and will produce more with proer incentive.
Despite the fact that every student has been given
ihe oppoitunitv to attend this classy theatre for
less ill. in the price of a motion pic tuic, few avail
themselves of this oppoi (unity.

And no answer had been found, it was indicated.
It is vety probable that no answer eer will
be found until there is an ellort by the faculty to
experiment with various other methods for testing the knowledge and thinking rapacity of students.
If it is agreed that the present system of examinations is obstructing the work of higher
education, then there should be a definite eagerness on the part of educators to revise that system.
At the Univcisily of Chicago that lcvision is
being attempted. An experimental program of
comprehensive examinations is being tiied.
Those who formulated and are carrying out
the "Chicago plan" are apparently of the opinion
that higher education should not be interfered
with by frequent, unnecessary and distracting
quizzes. In each course there is one examination which is given at the end of the semester
and that examination is a comprehensive one,
that is, it covers the entire subject which has
been under consideration by the student and
professor.
Students are not coached with the aim of passing tegular two week or monthly tests. All examinations are prepared by a board of examiners. The function of examining is not that of
the professor.
The teacher is not the judge or the accuser
and the student is not the petitioner for grace.
At Chicago, the faculty administration is hoping to work out an airangement in which student and instructor arc
in the
of learning, with the piolessor enjoving
.1 respect that is the result of his superior
knowledge and insight.
Ihe "Chicago plan" of comprehensive examinations is fiankly an experiment.
It seems to be functioning exceedingly well.
At least at that institution there is some

endeavor to determine how the present examination evils may be overcome California
