Commencement Week program.

Track Club Cabaret Athletic AssociationA Big Success Presents Standing
Fine Entertainment :OfferedAt Third Annual Affair;
Friday evening in the gymnasiumthe Track Club gave its third annual
cabaret which proved to be the most
successful entertainment ever given
by that club. All the tables were
filled by a large crowd including
guests, students and members of the
faculty.Mrs. Ella J. Mason had charge of
the bill of entertainmeats for the past
three years. The acts this year were
of such a variety of style that every-
body was bound to find something to
suit his taste. The names of severalperformers were kept secret until thepresentation, thus adding to the nov-
elty of the acts. The program was as
follows:1. A Costume Dance
Pierette and Pierot
2. An Original Sketch, with Top-ical Songs
3. Readings Miss Cheney4. Flower Dance and Posing....
5. Solos Nliss Clark6. Double Quartet Banjo and Mandolin Clubs
7. Modern Dancing Exhibition...The talent was not all from the
University and made a distinct hit.The variety act of topical songs filledwith jokes and knocks on tile faculty,attendance committee, the co-eds, thecollege buildings and Coach Smithgiven by Miss Brown, Dick Whittierand Jim Smiley was one of the hits ofthe show. The amusing trio sangparodies of the latest song hits suchas Along the Rocky Road to Dublin,
and When I Leave the World Behind.
Whittier showed an extreme dislike
for the co-eds in his parody on I'm
Simply Crazy Over You, and was re-buked by Miss Brown's reply in theparody of When the Right Girl ComesAlong.
The string quartette played medleysmade of Just a Waring for You, IfYou Only Had My Disposition. When
Old Bill Bailey Plays His Ukalalie, TheGirl on the Magazine Cover, and Wil-
liam Tell Overture, which were wellreceived. The program closed with
singing the Stein Song. The members
of the quartet were: C. M. DeWitt,
Edith Ingraham and Marion Hanley,
mandolins; Francis Head, banjo man-
dolin; Fred Haines, banjo; Thurle
Whitehouse, mandola; Ruth Brown.
guitar; Harry White, piano, and Wil-
liam Cobb, drums.The costume dance by Harry White
and Miss Faye Smith was very prettyand graceful, as were the exhibitions
of modern dancing by Fred Keating
and his partner, Miss Secor and Mr.
Jardine and his partner, Miss Stincli-
field. Both couples danced the most
graceful and less extreme of the mod-
ern steps.The readings of Miss Cheney and
the solos of Miss Clark were very
much enjoyed as was the Flower
Dance and a posing by Miss Sylvia
Tracy. The program lasted about an
hour and a half and was followed by
dancing, music for which was fur-
nished by the college orchestra.
The regular delicacies of the order
were: Ice cream, lemonade, ginger
ale, sandwiches and coffee. A number
of specials for those of more delicate
taste were prepared and served by
Chef Art Smith.
The committee in charge was as fol-
lows: Mrs. Mason, Boss; W. B. Has-
kell. Ladies' Maid; M. C. Peabody,
Short Change Guy; R. W. Bell, Noth-
ing at All; I. C. Macdonald, Dish
Washer; H. S. Jenkins, Terrible Pest;
"Art" Smith, Chef.
Prof. C. P. Weston, who spoke in
chapel Friday, gave a short compari-
son of the attitude of the people of
England and of Germany toward the
King and to the Kaiser as it appeared
to him in his travels through the re-
spective countries. The efficiency and
military atmosphere of Germany was
brought out in contrast with the
showy and madiaeval attitude of the
English.
Dartmouth has been offered the
erection of two magnificent dormitory
bindings under the condition that the
inst!tution be made co-educational.
"M" Letter to Students, Mr.Buck Places Conditions
Before Us
A PLEA FOR ACTION
To the Students of Maine:Through the columns of your paper
I wish to call your attention to a mat-ter that should be of vital importanceto each and every one of you. Whileprimarily you attend the University toobtain an e.lucation to fit you for yourwork in later years, I want to ask ifyou would feel perfectly satisfied atgraduation if you looked back uponfour years at the University and couldrecall no activities in which you hadtaken some part. I feel almost safe inanswering this question for ninety-nine out of each one hundred of you.and my answer would be emphatically,NO!Now then, of all the activities, is
there any one that can take the placeof Athletics at our University, or infact any University or College? I be-lieve the same ninety-nine would againanswer, NO! If this is true then youshould make the maintenance of Ath-letics a personal matter and wake upto the fact that more personal interestand support must be shown. If eachof you would step forward and assumeyour proportion of the burden, thenthat burden would be light when com-pared with the results tettained. Whenour teams are engaged in a contest itis hard to conceive of better spirit andloyalty,—but when we go to the booksof our treasurer another story is told.There can be none of you who fail torealize the expense of properly equip-ping and coaching our athletic teams,and then the expense attending ourcontests away from tle University.Prior to the year beginning September,1914, we did not follow the financialend as we should Itt, ve done, whichresulted in our starting the fall semes-ter of that year with the Associationin debt something over twenty-twohundred dollars. We had had thepleasure of seeing our teams victori-oils on the athletic field but what s.sad awakening. With the loyal sup-port of the student body and by prac-ticing the strictest economy all debtsof the Athletic Association were paidand we began the fall semester of 1915with a balance of $26.30 in the treas-ury.
During the present semester wheninquiring why the Blanket Tax isbeing paid by such a small percentageof the student body. I have been toldthat there is a feeling among the stu-dents that the Association is out ofdebt, with money in the treasury andthat the blanket tax is not needed. Tothose who have 81101 an impression Iwant to call attention to a few figuresbearing upon the finances of the As-sociation. Following is a very closeestimate of expenses of the Associa-tion for the remainder of the presentsemester, providing the full baseballand track schedules are carried out:Apr. 29, Bowdoin gameat Brunswick, 14 menincluding coach andmanager; car fare...$ 70.84Hotel bill 42.00

War indirectly has touched the cam-
pus. The DII l'ont Powder Company,
after the greedy habit of munitions
factories, has reached out and taken
unto itself two of the rising youngchemists from our Agricultural Ex-
periment Station. The men thus fav-
ored are both graduates of Maine,
Edward E. Sawyer, '12. and Walter H
Rogers. '16. They started for Wil-
mington. Delaware, Saturday and be-
gan their new duties May 1.
Harvard has ordered an Aero Corps
under the military department of that
Institution. Its purpose is to train
men for the service with the United
States army or navy.

Maine Easily DefeatsColby 83-43
Blue Team Shows Strength inNearly Every Event
- —WU N DERLICK INJURED
The University of Maine track teamdefeated Colby in a dual meet, winningby the score of 83 to 43. With pleasantweather anti a dry track everythingwas favorable for fair competition.Maine took twelve first places allow-
ing ('olby to score first only in tilt.quarter mile and the discus throw.Merrill and Joyce won these events inorder.C. A. Rice, the University sprinter,
won both dashes without any difficulty.His time in the 100 was 10 1-5 secondsand in the 220 was 22 2-5 seconds. Thefirst heat ran by Rice was the prettiestof the day, and was the only occasionwhen he really let himself out. In thefinals Rice was followed by Zieglerand Lawry for second and third placesrespectively. Colby succeeded in scor-ing only point, third in the 220, wonby Ferrill.Although Bell of Maine won the mile
it was the unluckiest race of the dayfor the University. Wunderlich. Bell'steammate, had to be carried from thefield with a pulled tendon. This willprobably keep him from competingagain this spring.The closest and most exciting race of
the day was the half mile, won by Bellof Maine. Bel? was running in thirdposition when Thompson of Colbyliaised Dempsey for the lead. Demp-
sey was unable to regain his position
so Bell took up the race, passed
Thompson and beat him to the tape by
some five yards.The surprise of the day was Libby
of Maine winning the two mile over his
teammate l'reti.
In the hurdles French secured both
firsts with very little effort. He also
won the broad jump, making him high
point winner of the day.In the weights Maine was successful
in all but the discus. Stanley won the
hammer throw with 129.4 feet, while
Allen in the shot came within .7 feet of
the State record.

This is the last issue of the CAM-
PUS which the present board will get
out. The past year has been a criticalone in the history of the publicationThere have been many difficulties inour path and many problems to besolved of which the average studenthas had no knowledge. We wish atthis time to express our gratitude tothose members of the board and otherswho have helped us to make our papeiworth while. We believe that the fu-ture of the CAMPUS is bright. Thenew hoard Is as a whole one of themost efficient in years and the studentbody is to be congratulated upon hav-ing its paper in such lane hands. Forthe new administration we ask agreater amount of co-operation thanhas been given us.
Of course it was a tine thing to winthat dual meet Saturday and the menwho helped to win it deserve all thecredit in the world. However, thestudent laxly must realize as do CoachSmith and the track team that we areto have no easy time if we win theState Meet this year. Saturday's re-sults were just about what were ex-pecte]. We all must work and workhard if we are to conic through thisyear. The next two weeks will tell thestory. Plan to go down to the StateMeet on the special and take the otherfellow with you. Talk it up from nowon.
Hosea Buck. chairman of the Ath-letic Board, and one of this most loyalof Maine Alumni. has written a letterto the undergraduates of the Univer-sity. It is our pleasure to publishthis letter in this week's issue. HoseaBuck knows more about Maine ath-letics than any other alumnus becausehe has done more for them than anyother alumnus. Ile has n message forall of us concerning a matter of vitalimportance. We urge every man toconsider the content of this letter andto try and realize how little it Is pos-sible for most of us to do in helpingour teams to win. The least that anyof um can do is to pay the Blanket Tax.Do you want to pay years and do yoursmall part, or are you unwilling to doeven this little for the good of ourteams?
The University Band is going awayon a trip the week of iii. State Meet.We are to !MVP no hand for the railybefore the meet and nil hand for theball game Friday afternoon. On Fri-Cay e%ening before the 1,10et the bandIs scheduled to play for a concert andfiance at Dexter. The plans are nowfor the band to just co%nect with ourspecial train at Newport. Unless theseplans are rather materially modifiedby the management of the band thepopularity of the organisation is going
to be somewhat less than it has been
in the past. The first duty of the Maine
Band is to Maine. We are proud of our
musicians and as long as the interests
of the University are not interfered
with are glad to have them show the
people of Dexter or of any other town
how good they are.
The CAMPUS takes this opportunity
on behalf of the entire student body,
to welcome the guests of Junior Week
to the University. We are glad at alltimes to welcome both otd friends andnew. At this time each year we make
a special effort to entertain our friendsto the best of our ability. We hopethat your visit may he most enjoyable
in every way.

STUDENT CHAPEL.
Last Thursday morning studentchapel was held for the purpose ofarousing enthusiasm among the mem-bers of the student body in regard tothe coming State Track Meet, to beheld at Brunswick, Saturday, May 13.Manager Ilaskell told the student bodyhow hard the team was working, andhow much they need every "Maineman" to back them up. The proposi-tion of having a special train to ltruns-wick was brought up and will be morefully developed this week.This question of making the blanket
tax committee a college honor withIts members elected by the studentbody was brought up. After a briefdiscussion those present voted in favorof this measure. This change will nodoubt make those who serve on thiscommittee feel that they are more thanrecognized by the entire student body,and not so much to be avoided.
Sophomores WinAnnual Debate
Compulsary Military TrainingDiscussed By Lower Classes
Tile Sophomores were the winnersin the annual Freshman-Sophomoredebate which was held in Alumni Hallon Wednesday evening, April :!fl, at8.00 o'clock. Dr. Chase of the facultypresided. The question was, "Ilesolved, that military training should bemade compulsory in all of our college,and universities." The Sophomoressupported the negative and the Fresh-men the affirmative of the question.The judges were Hey. Mr. Lyman ofOrono. Judge Dunn of Orono. and Prot.Matthews of the faculty.The first speaker for the Sopho-
mores was IL II. Lovejoy. Mr. I,o.eo)prowl that it was not ne4'es1:ai.y thatmilitary training be made compulsory..Ile was followed by J. A. Goodwiti fathe Freshmen. Mr. Goodwin pray( dthat military training must be mad,compulsory In line with the generalpreparedness movement. The secondSophomore speaker. R. C. Moore.showed that the system of compulsorymilitary training was inefficient. N.W. Emery for the Freshmen prove 1that the compulsory system furnishedthe most complete training at theleast cost. The last speaker for theSophomores. D. W. Norton, showedthat the proposed system was undemo-cratic. Frank Altman for the Fresh-men showed that the system proposewas justifiable and that it always hadbeen and would he a success.The Sophomore alternate was E. W.
NIcLain and the Freshman alternate.I. H. Ikmovan. Each speaker was al-lowed ten minutes for his direct ad-dress and three minutes for rebuttal.
A sophomore chapel committee atPennsylvania composed of twenty menIs working wonders towards improv-ing the chapel attendance of thesophomores. Through a chain systemeach member of the committee is ex-pected to pledge another to attendchapel. The pledged sophomore isrequired to ple.ige another. Thus anendless chain arrangement has beenput into effect and will 11-4 untfl everysophomore makes his appearance atchapel.

Plans For Coming Year Dis-cussed By Leaders
The M. ('. A. retreat last Saturdayafternoon and Sunday held at Hamp-
den promises to be the beginning ot
the most practical and strongest or-ganization in the history of the Maine
M. C. A. When about forty of the mostenthusiastic students of the University
band together full of "pep" to makethe association a vital factor in theUniversity life it means "something
doing."The purpose of the trip was to or-
ganize some of the most active of M.C. A. workers to form plans to set theassociation on its feet for the coming
year. The men started for Clark'sbungalow Saturday afternoon, where
they spent the evening and Sunday
morning discussing plans for the sea-
son of 1916-1917. The association will
have at least one powerful speaker
here each month. It intends to help
new men get started next year by hay
ing men to meet them at the station.
to register, and many other helps. It
will have classes in most of the townswithin a radius of twenty-five miles.
The association also hopes to raise a
fund to send six men to the Northfield
Student Conference. and to have rooms
on the campus.
Sunday morning the cabinet was
joined by several other workers of the
University and together they attended
the Hampden Congregational church.
After church and a few short explor-
ing expeditions the party assembled to
enjoy one of Mrs. Clark's excellentdinners.Throughout the whole trip the party
was greatly enlivened and aided by
Mr. George Irving of New York, editor
of the North American Student, andSecretary Cranston. Both urged that,
although the plans were not extrava-
gant, it is necessary to raise funds to
hack up the work. The students,realizing this, responded nobly by
signing notes for $329 on the spot. Athree days campaign has just been be-
gun, upon the results of which a large
part of the benefit of the M. C. A. tothe student body depends.
M tINE ORCHESTRA AT THE 111.10U
Tli EATRE.
At the Maine Masque performance
of "hello and Isabella" the following
men were picked to represent the Uni-
versity orchestra at the Bijou Thea-
tre, April 26: Winn Mayers. leader
and piano: Ralph Whitehouse, firstviolin; F. J. Penley, second violin; J.L. Chute. violincello; E. I. Clapp.bass; L. II. Blood, first cornet; H. N.Dole, first clarinet; E. L. Coolbroth,flute and piccolo, and C. K. Lane,drums. The selections were playedwith a dash that showed careful re-hearsing and good leadership by May-
ers of the senior class. The program
of concert selections will be repeated
at the Junior Week appearance of the
Maine players with the entire instru-
mentation.
A committee to investigate the
blanket tax for Minnesota has declaredit impossible. Three reasons are giv-
en: First, the athletic board would
not consent; second, there would beno saving to the student body; andthird, a blanket tax could not be madecompulsory on all students.
At the University of Michigan rules
have been made prohibiting the stick-
ing of college "posters" on suitcases
or other baggage. It is claimed that
this is against the conservation of
present day ethics.

The May issue of Practical Hus-bandry, the monthly magazine pub-lished by the Maine agricultural stu-dents. will feature an interestingarticle on "Landscape Gardening" byProfessor F. A. Waugh of the depart-ment at Massachusetts AgriculturalCollege. Prof. Waugh is a recognizedauthority in this branch of agricultureand as Maine lacks a major course inlandscape gardening the article will bevaluable information. Among thepopular books that he has publishedare "Fruit Growing," "Landscape Gar-dening", and "The American AppleOrchard." Prof. Leckberg of the Me-chanical Engineering department willhave an article on "Gasoline Enginesfor the Farm." There will be severalminor articles by the department in-structors.

Portland Plans anAttractive Celebration
Board of Trade Invites Stud-ents After State Meet
Are we to celebrate winning theState Track Championship, in Port-land? was one of the questions dis-
cussed at the student chapel lastThursday.
That in the minds of some the onlyanswer to .this question is. yes, was
seen when some 400 of the studentbody raised their hands to show theirintention of making the trip. Driscolldecided, however, that this number
was hardly large enough and that itbe discussed for a week.
The merchants and people of Port-land remembering the big gentlemanlydemonstration that the Maine studentsmade at that city last fall, celebratingthe winning of the State footballchampionship, wish them there thisspring. The Board of Trade has of-fered to give a cabaret show in CityHall, a show that will be full of pep.and pretty girls. They are doing thisbecause Keith's Theatre will be show-ing stock and they think that CityHall is the proper place for Maine mento get together for some fun andcheering after the parade.
The special train into Portland mustbe arranged for in advance this year.and for that reason It is imperativethat Maine men make up their mindsas soon as possible. The question ofwhether Maine will be celebrating ornot is, of course, a matter of specula-tion, but with Coach Magee havingconfidence enough to say that Bowdoinwill fight for first place it seems thatthere should be some 700 or 800 Mainemen who have confidence in the fight-ing qualities of men with records be-hind them to live up to and to excel.enough to enable them to decide thatthey will make this trip to Portland.The extra fare for the round trip
from Brunswick to Portland was sev-enty cents last fall.
Fifty undergraduates have enrolledin an "Independent League" at Dart-mouth. The society has for its pur-
pose the opposition to the introduc-
tion of military training into the col-lege curriculum.
Only five institutions whose attend-ance is over six hundred do not admitwomen. These universities are Har-vard, Princeton, Dartmouth, Gerardand Georgia.

1Uhe DOLE COMPANYConcert at Bangor Electrical EngineersSolo Work of O'Neil Features
the Program
Not for some years has the Bangorconcert by the Mush-al Clubs been assuccessful as was the one of Saturdayevening at ('ity Hall. The gallery waswell filled, there being no seats on thefloor. Many who were not present atthe concert came to dance later.
The receipts were much more thanthose of the last two or three years.Previously the concert was givenunder the auspices of some Bangorclub or organization, but this year itwas put on by the Musical Clubs them-selves. Consequently the profit wasconsiderably greater.
As for the concert itself, the generalcomment was that it was much betterthan similar concerts of the past. Thecornet solos of H. D. O'Neil of Bangortook the audience by storm and he wasforced to use all his prepared encores.J. H. Magee. also of Bangor, receivedgeneral applause from nis townspeo-ple. His readings were highly pleas-ing, and his delivery was excellent.The Glee and Mandolin Clubs did thebest work that they have producedthis season, putting a lot of enthus-iasm into each selection.
Although the clubs did not take anextensive trip this year. and the re-ceipts and guarantees were not large,on account of the size of the townsvisited, there will be no loss, but onthe other hand there will be a fair-sized surplus on hand at the end ofthe year due to the good crowds atthe Orono and Bangor concerts.
The theory of athletic coaching is anew course which has just been addedto the Harvard curriculum. Begin-ning April 29. a series of lectures willbe given dealing with the theory andpractice of various college sports.Evidently Harvard intends to keepgood her reputation for turning outcoaches.

Masque Back FromThird Trip
Five PCrfOrmances at Port-
land Followed By Reception
The Maine Masque with "Lelio and
Isabella," the burlesque interpretation
of Romeo and Juliet, that was written
for the dramatic club by Professor %V
P. Daggett completed the third trip
of the season playing at Norridge
wock, April 24; Portland, April 25.
and at Bangor. April 26. The grease
paint artists are having exceptional
success with this artistic comedy as
the players drew crowded houses all
the season except at the Bijou Theatrc
in Bangor. The six months rehears-
ing and the eleven performances in
eluding the Massachusetts trip has
polished the actors so that the Junior
Week appearance will be an excep-
tional treat for the students and visit-
ors.
At Norridgewock the Masque made
their first appearance at that place in
the recently completed theatre as a
feature in a series of entertainments.
The attraction was well advertised.
and the house was sold out with a
large number standing. The audience
was very enthusiastic with the effor
of the players from the first stunt of
the comedians.
The following evening the comedy
was given at Pythian Temple in Port-
land under the auspices of the Alpha
Phi Society. The management ar-
ranged elaborate plans for the Main(
Dramatic club and the appearance was
made the feature college show of the
season for Portland. The programs
were costly with an advertising value
of several hundred dollars. Governor
Oakley C. Curtis and the professional
and business men of Portland were
the patrons of the college show. After
the performance the Alpha Phi men
gave a reception dance to the mein-
hers of the cast which was attended
by the younger society set.
"Lelio and Isabella" at Portland
was one of the smoothest and most
artistic performances of the season.
and the work of the men playing the
female parts was especially liked
with Sumner C. Cobb, '17. as the lead-
ing lady and "college fullback" as the
Daily Argus stated, and Fred L. Dam-
refl. '16. as ['etiquette. There was
much interest shown in the work of
the three Portland men because of
their previous dramatic work before
their entrance to college, and Sumner
C. Cobb. '17, Artemas H. Harmon. '18.
and Evans 11. Norcross, '19, made a
good impression. The character parts
had their share of the applause, and
the work of the comedians was full of
snap and action.
The Bijou Theatre appearance was
very artistic with all the advantages
of a spacious stage, scenic effects, the
complete and elaborate costuming, and
the musical support of the University
orchestra of fourteen pieces. The
audience was the smallest of the sea-
son's trips because of the many socialaffairs and following a well adver-tised production.
The Junior Week appearance onThursday evening will be one of the
attractions because it will be the tirst
appearance on the campus. With theentire season of rehearsals and all thetrips completed the students will wit-ness the results of Maine players inthe type of a comedy that is holdingthe attention of the dramatic criticsof the East. All plans are to make"Lelio and Isabella" the biggest andmost complete production that theMasque has offered any Junior Weekin Its history. The full instrumenta-tion of the University orchestra willfurnish the concert and incidentalmusic of the play. Leader Mayers hasarranged the following program forthe orchestra:

Thus far returns made to the treas-urer by the Blanket Tax committeeshow that but 282 students have paidtheir blanket tax for this spring semes-ter. This number is a very small per-centage of the student body. The fig-ures as given above show what our fi-nancial condition at the end of theyear will be unless your blanket tax ispaid. I want to impress upon all ofyou that unless l'OUR blanket tax ispaid in sufficient amount to guaranteecompleting the year free from debt wewill not be able to carry out the furltrack schedule.The Athletic Board is not going to
put the Association in debt again thisspring and it is now right up to you- -Students of Maine-to come across orsee the spring schedule cut short. Wehave good material in both baseballand track and under the presentcoaches it is conceded by many thatour chances of bringing two morechampionships to Maine this year, an,very, very good. We started out lastfall for a clean-up year and I want toask you now if you are going to allowyour failure to pay your tax of five dol-lars stand in the way. We want tosend to the New England Meet atSpringfield every man who can showone or even one-half of a point forMaine. It costs $28.50, approximately.per man for this meet. Are you goingto make It necessary for the AthleticBoard to figure how few men will besent to Springfield when with ourchances of capturing the meet theBoard should he planning to send ev-ery man who can show something forMaine? Do you realize keeping one ortwo men out of that meet may lose themeet for Maine?
I am giving you these figures andmaking this appeal for your financialsupport at an early date in order thatyou may think seriouFly and decide be-fore it is too late, that you want to beloyal to your Athletic teams and plyInto the treasury of the Associationthe reasonable tax of five dollars.
