Tribunal Presidents The students have invested the powers of tribunal presidency in the above four men: Daniel Gahl, Herbert Findling, Arthur Raelson, Wilbur Strubig. Council Tribunal Officers Elected For 1935-36 Term Tribunal elections held Monday, April 15, in the various college buildings resulted in naming the following presidents for the school year 1935-36: Daniel Gahl, Liberal Arts; Arthur Raelson, School of Law; Wilbur Streubig, College of Pharmacy and Herbert Findling, College of Engineering. These presidents with the officers-elect of Student council will compose the executive board of the Council next year. This board has the task of preparing material for presentation to the regular Council. Other officers of the tribunals are Lois Brauer, secretary of Liberal Arts; Anthony Aiello, vice- president and Raymond Broviak, secretary of the College of Pharmacy; and Arthur Mahler, vice- president, and Lester Malzahn, secretary of the College of Engineering. V. U. Tennis Squad To Have Busy Week With Three Meets Three matches are on the card for Valparaiso's tennis team for the coming week's activities. The three teams scheduled to meet the Uhlans are Manchester, Ball State and South Side college of Chicago. The Manchester affair is to be played at Manchester on Friday which will fit into the Spartan's "May Day" program. On Saturday the Uhlans return to Brown field and match their strokes against those of Ball State. On Tuesday, May 7, the Uhlans travel to Chicago to face South Side college. This past Monday the Brown and Gold squad were to play Ball State at Muncie but because of wet courts the match was postponed until a later date. Coach Christiansen upon being notified about the postponement declared, "This is really a break for us for now we are able to get in that much needed practice." It looks however that the break didn't arrive for ever since Monday old Lady Luck has frowned upon the Uhlans by sending inclement weather. EDITORIAL Adding Interest To Student Elections Election of officers for the student council are scheduled for May 7. The student council, in name at least, is THE STUDENT GOVERNING body. Elections in the past have always been very dull, and unexciting. The majority of the student body make no effort to elect the man most fit for the various offices. Some friend or acquaintance comes along, asks the student to sign the petition for his candidate, and at election time the student merely votes for his best friends. Elections could and ought to be made more interesting on this campus. The present student council might well do the student body a favor, call a special meeting before May 7, and adopt some form of election that has proved so popular at other universities. At present elections are blind affairs. The student votes for a candidate, knows him personally, but in most cases does not know what sort of an officer he will be. Too often he is just being put into office by his own organization so that their prestige may be added to. To offset this in part the candidates should be made to set up a platform before election, to which they can be held responsible during their term of office. In this way the students could know what to expect. To add spice to the election the candidates could make "stump speeches" and use their own ingenuity in devising effective campaigns. Student council, what do you say to this plan? Platforms and campaigns would not only add interest to elections, but would insure to a greater measure better service from future student councils. Are you willing to help in building up a better student governing body? KATHRYN WITWER, SOPRANO ARTIST, TO APPEAR HERE MAY 21 Kathryn Witwer, the girl who rose from stenographer to one of the highest positions in the world of opera, will appear in Valparaiso, May 21, reports to the contrary notwithstanding. The Valparaiso Woman's club is sponsoring the program. Miss Witwer is one of the most highly advertised of American prima donnas. The $150,000 Nash Christmas program appearance undoubtedly made Miss Witwer one of the most outstanding soprano artists. It was a transcontinental broadcast and the biggest broadcast ever attempted. At present this opera star is heard weekly on "The Northerner" program over radio station WGN, every Monday evening at 9:30 central daylight saving time. The Northern Trust company are the sponsors. Critics Favorable Mrs. Ira C. Tilton is president of the local woman's club, and the people interested in higher community standards are aiding in backing this organization. Tickets will be fifty cents to all. In a recent article in the Chicago Herald and Examiner the following quotation appeared: "Miss Witwer showed ample rea- V. U.

The following program will be presented: Concert March—Men of Sparta. .Zamecnik Overture—The Trojan Prince Holmes Cornet Trio—Flirtations Novelty—Whistling Farmer Boy. .Fillmore Suite—A Day in Venezia Nevin a) Alba b) Gondolier! c) Canzone Amorosa d) Buona Notle Clarinet Solo—Rigoletto Kenneth Green Patrol—Baby Parade Pryor Tone Poem—Vistas Gillette son for the great number of concert engagements which demand her services throughout the country. Not only is she greatly experienced in the matter of voice, and distinguished among American sopranos by reason of her interpretive talents, but she has learned to make the English language both beautiful in sound and eloquent in meaning." NOTICE Due to a delay of the "cuts" the results of the Torch "Best Dressed" Contest can not be published until next week. Engineer Association To Hold Spring Banquet The annual spring banquet of the Association of Engineers will be held Wednesday, May 8, at the Washington Township high school. Dr. C. E. Bardsley, professor of hydraulics at the Missouri School of Mines and Metallurgy, and consulting engineer of RoIIa, Missouri, will be the principal speaker. Tickets are being sold through class representatives at 55 cents each. All engineers are urged to be present. This will be the final social gathering of the Association this semester. Freshmen Hope To Start Tradition With Banquet The freshmen class, with the hope of establishing a tradition, will hold an informal banquet Monday evening, May 6, at 6:30 in the Lutheran parish hall. Dr. Walter Bauer will officiate as master of ceremonies. A human interest story of the. World War by Dr. E. G. Schwiebert, an overseas veteran, will be the evening's feature. (Continued on page 4) Friday's Host Mr. Derrill Place has worked hard to insure students that Valparaiso University's first Indiana State Intercollegiate Oratorical contest will be a success. Pres. Kreinheder Announces Plans Of V. U. Directors Dr. Walther A. Maier, nationally known Lutheran radio hour preacher, will be the main speaker at the open-air commencement service June 16, and the Rev. Oscar Fedder, Chicago, will be the speaker in the morning of the same day at the Baccalaureate service. This announcement was made yesterday, by President 0. C. Kreinheder at the Valparaiso University Board of Directors meeting which was attended by 13 of the 18 members of the Board. University dormitory improvements was one of the issues included in the discussion of the meeting and was referred to the Committee on Buildings and Grounds which has the authority to plan for necessary improvements. It is contemplated by the committee to make these improvements during the summer months. A bequest of $7,000 and $1,000 for the Endowment fund was reported by the president of the University. The gift of $1,000 was bequeathed the University by a friend in Crown Point. The Board members reported progress in the enrollment of Minutemen throughout the country for the University. They further reported that individual congregations of Synod are answering the appeal for participation in a Tenth Anniversary Thanksgiving offering for the University. Further plans of the program for the anniversary will be made within the next week.

Mr. Place, director, explained that the date set was near graduation and the play will fit in well with the spirit which accompanies that time o' the year. Some men can never five without a woman's influence. And so it is with our hero who had always been his mother's little "darling." Going away to school was a break which many students feel when untying themselves from mother's apron strings for the first time. So thought the young doctor in the play. He needed a woman's help. For five long years in the medical school he craved the understanding which before he had received only from his mother, and which now he must seek elsewhere. "Wind In The Rain" was quite successful in New York having a fifteen weeks run on Broadway.
