The Young Men’s Christian Asso-
ciation Committee on Friendly Rela-
tions Among Foreign Students cor-
dially invites students from other
lands to attend one of the annual in-
encampments in June,
1920. Nearly five hundred students,

ternoons are reserved for swimming,
boating, hiking, baseball, tennis, pic-
nics, and other forms of profitable di-
versions. (2) Satisfying addresses on
the greatest social and moral ques-
tions of the hour by the world’s great-
- est authorities. (3) Stimulating in-
formal discussion groups in which
each student is free to express his
views and convictions on such sub-
jects as : College men and the League
of Nations; vital religion, an economic
‘necessity. Can students from rival
nations be personal friends, though
Are commerce
and diplomacy promoters of interna-
tional good will? Arguments for

 denominationalism among Christians
be abandoned?
‘The foreign students should recog-
nize in these international conferen-
ces an opportunity to contribute: A
fair and accurate interpretation of
their country and people; a correction
of ‘any misunderstanding or erron-

FORMER GRIDIRON
STARS AS ACTORS
IN SENIOR PLAY
Rehearsals are Being Had Regularly
and Other Preparations are Being
Made for the Play.
Possibly no other play could be
presented to a modern audience that
would have the college environment
as that typified in the Senior Play
“Strongheart” which opens its initial
performance at the Lyrie Theatre in
Bryan, May 21.
A College play true to life in every
detail, full of the true college pep
and enthusiasm, will be seen and
there is no doubt that such a play
being presented as it is, by such an
experienced cast, who live the col-
lege life, will find a warm spot in
everyone’s heart. There are includ-
ed in the cast those whom we see
everyday in our own school life.
There's the football team captain,
the coach, the trainer, other stars of
the team, and——of course nearly
every one of them must have a girl
to make the play a bit serious at the
crucial moment.
Everyone knows just what “Kitty”
was—everyone appreciated the play
as presented by those among our own
midst—surely there is a treat await-
ing for everyone in “Strongheart.”
Make your arrangements to be pres-
ent at the opening act of the opening
night in Bryan, May 21st. Music will
be bountiful and the costumes worn
will be only the best and latest cuts
in style. It’s worth ‘your while, you
cannot afford to miss it, it’s going to
be the best. Watch for additional
“dope.” :
