B.'s only<J> dramatic organization, celebrated Its 20th anniversary last week by presenting Sutton Varne’s “Out ward Bound” on the stage of Nor ton Union. In addition to being re ceived very enthusiastically by the audiences of all three nights, the play was a success financially. Past performances of Masquers’ plays have built up their reputa tion to its present standing of Jfhlch “Outward Bound” was an outstanding example. The acting and scenery, which was designed by Chase Viele and constructed by Bob Rolller and Co., was superb, as was the directing by Stanley D. Travis. The publicity also merits a note of congratulation. One point, though, should be made dear. That is. Blue Masquers cater 0) all the students at the Univer- •ity and also to outsiders. They So not confine their plays to the ao-called “intellectual class” which aeems to be an attitude formed by •ome students.

The chapter’s Bntertalnment Troupe will pre sent a show at the hospital next Tuesday prior to distributing the cigarettes. ^Progressive^ Says Pupils Tend to Left Spatterings of applause from nearly 1000 students who packed Hayes Auditorium yesterday greeted Henry Wallace’s state ments that he is a “progressive capitalist” and that today’s stu dent is “10 degrees farther to the left” than was his father. Mr. Wallace explained that this “progressive” tendency of the mod ern student will save the United States from the effects of “reac tionary capitalism,” a system of the “militaristic gang from Wall S t .that ^ n s our government.” Instead the speaker advocated his “progressive capitalism” as the solution to national difficulties. This theory, ho said, calls for abundant production, lower prices, higher wages, prompt reinvestment of profits and “that degree of co operation with the government” which would prevent depressions, which Mr. Wallace said could lead to war. He referred again to <he “Wall St. gang,” roundly denouncing them as lovers of military preparedness that might lead to war. He op posed Universal Military Training “because it would destroy the spirit of old fashioned American ism.” Mr. Wallace advocated peaceful measures in regard to Russia, rath er than the “get tough” policy. He cited U. S. “bases, in effect,” in Turkey and Greece as Indica- tionj to Russia that the U. S. has other than peaceful alms. The former vice president said he believed U. S. aid to foreign nations should be administered through an Independent group rath er than by U. S. means, which be fear will lead to further difficulties with Russia. HENRY WALLACE N. U.
