With the same consistency that has marked the progress of the University in the past few years, a number of new courses in English Drama, known as English 11 and 123. These courses will be lectures on the development of, 'the English /D.rama, and will be conducted by Dr. Daniel Reed, affectionately known to Colum hians as "Danny." Mr. Reed has had considerable experience and success in producing and acting in the Town The ater, and is exceptionally well fitted to teach these subjects. English 11 is taught at 11 o'clock on Monday's, Wednesday's and Friday's at Flinn Hall. This is the "lab" course including lectures on the theory of dra matic production. It deals with the analytical study of various phases and types of production of the written dra ma." It will not be used primarily :as a text, but as a reference. This use is neccessary in order to promote an open minded attitude toward an aesthetic sub ject, thus avoiding the danger of posi tive dictums. English 123 will deal in the theory, preceding the practice. With the Town Theater as a laboratory, this will be a valuable course. Each member of this class will be given, in the course of the term, all the details of production, with actual materials at hand, of play-produc tion. This class meets on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays, at 11 o'clock, at Flinn Hall. So far, eleven have enrolled for En glish, 11 and sixteen for 123. U.S.C.

FOUR HUNDRED ATTEND FRESHMAN RECEPTION PRESENTS LIVELY SCENE Young Ladies From Columbia, Chicora, and Co-eds Brave Weather. Over four-hundred boys and girls braved the incliment weather to attend the Freshman reception given by the Y. M. C. A. in the gymnasium last Fri day evening. Viewing the crowd from the balcony, it might make one think that a picture was being flashed upon his eyes from a ballroom scene in some play such as "Zaza." Some fellows were seen walk ing around the floor with two or three young ladies from the different colleges swinging to his arm, wvhile others could l)e seeni gazing on in awe and looking wistfully at the fair young ladies as they promenaded iconsciously keeping step to the music furnished by a picked orchestra. Punch was served throughout the evening by some of the Co-eds who vol unteered to act as martyrs and desist from talking to the many boys to keep the guests from (lying of thirst.. . (Punch is a necessity at a reception of any kind because ones mouth niaturally becomes dry from talking so much.) Everything was going along fine uin til about fifteen minutes of ten, .when Mrs. Blyrdl and the chaperones from Columbia college were seen going among the yoteg ladies and repeating those age-old-words. "It is time to go." Taking everything into consideration, the receptioti wvas a great success and many of the boys are already dreaming of next year when the same thing will happen oer again. NEW SOCIETY CHARTERED AT FACULTY MEETING NAMED EUPHROSYNEAN Hypatian Divides Itself Equally In Order To Form New Body. A new literary society, the Euphros ynean, has been formed by the co-eds. and legally chartered and recognized, indeed heartily approved and encouraged by the faculty in its meeting'Wednesday afternoon.

No, only cooperation and friendliness will exist between the two societies. All the old girls, both Hypa tian *and Euphrosyneans, hope to see a great increase of interest in all forms of literary exercise and to stimulate in ter society and inter-collegiate debates and oratorical contests for the girls. The two societies in conference have decide(d on next Tuesday for pledge day. On Monday, bids will be issued by both societies to those of the new girls that they desire to become mem bers of the society. On Tuesday morn ing ,at chap-l time, the secretaries of both societies, Miss LeRhea Counts for the lypatian, and Miss Sara Meri dith. for the l.uphrosycan, will be in the vestihule of the chapel to take the names of the girls and give them the colors of their chosen society which they will wear as a pledge. The colors of the Hypatians are white and gold, and of the Euphrosgneans, black and gold. On Wednesday afternoon, the tnew mem hers will be initiated at four o'clock by the Hypatian in the Clariosophic Hall and by the FEuphrosynean in the Euphradian Hall. It is hoped that every new girl will join one or the other of the societies and get in touch wvith the activities of the more serious minded and stu (lious of the co-eds that go on in these literary societies. If yout do not join a literary society, you will miss a great dleal of cotmpaionship,. of knowledge anid of usefuil training for public work.
