You're Sure When You Buy of DUNLAP By the Dam Phone 10 MEET MR. If you would "parlez vous francaise," And names of French towns learn to say; If you a Sammys heart entrench, Then meet "Prof." Young who teaches French! Iowa City girls who will not be outdone by petite madamoiselles of France, Iowa City lads in khaki who dream of the fields of France and quaint old villages, have swooped down upon the French department of the University, to make the hard working instructors work harder. Among the members of the French staff who are learning that it is no small task to conduct a French department during war times is Prof. C. E. Young, who arrived this fall to assume the chairmanship of this department. Today 1,000 Iowa students are enrolled in the University to study French and two new instructors have been added to the staff. But Professor Young is not discouraged at the crowded schedule and predicts that it will be one of the biggest years for French that the University has known. Mr. Young is not of French parentage and his love for the language and of the people is acquired. "I believe I learned to love French through my mother's influence," Professor Young declared, "for as early as I can remember she studied and spoke French and taught me the first rudiments of the language." In 1902 Professor Young received his A. B. degree from Harvard. In 1908 an A. M. and in 1912 a Ph.D from the University of Wisconsin. Since that time he has taught in the secondary schools, in the Vanderbilt university of Nashville, Tenn., and has been connected with Beloit college as head of the department of French. Prof. Stephen Bush, head of the department of French, and now in active service in France is a personal friend of Professor Young's. They attended Harvard together and later were neighbors in Boston. Professor Young is keenly interested in military French and the instructing of American boys who will soon be going across in the speaking of the language. During the summer he was with the Y.M.C.A. at Camp Grant, Rockford, Ill., as director of French in the classes for soldiers. It is the plan of the French staff this year to place more emphasis than ever before upon the oral study of French that the graduates from the department may be able to speak fluently as well as to read the language easily. Professor Young has a attractive personality and has already proved himself popular with his students. He has that quality of bringing himself to the level of the student, of seeing a subject from the beginner's viewpoint and gradually approaching his own. Professor and Mrs. Young and their son will make their home at 222 Fairchild street, in Iowa City. "FLU" GIVES BAND LONG REHERSALS Three hours Daily Are now Being Devoted to Practice During Quarantine Barring of S.T.T.C. men from classes in the University at the present time on account of the Spanish influenza epidemic, makes extra rehearsals of the band possible. Three hours a day are devoted to practice. When the quarantine is lifted the number of hours will probably be reduced to two. Dr. O. H. Van Doren says that the prospects for a band are as good this year as they ever have been. Many of the old members have returned and many new men have come in, giving excellent material for the organization. Dr. Van Doren will select the men or the band within a week or 10 days. It is possible that two bands will be organized. Three formal concerts will be given during the year. TWO HAWKEYE EDITORS RESIGN, ENTER SERVICE Dr. C. H. Weller, chairman of the Hawkeye directors will call a meeting of the board next week to discuss the publishing of the Hawkeye this year. The plan was to call the new annual the "Victory Hawkeye." Two of the editors, G. F. Killinger and F. A. Steiner have resigned and have won commissions in the army. The remaining members of the board have authority to nominate persons to fill vacancies, and appointment of new members is made by the president. The contracts for engraving and printing were made last spring, but they may be cancelled in case the Hawkeye is not published. WILLIAM HINDT WOUNDED William Hindt, of Rock Rapids, a graduate of the University in 1916, is listed as severely wounded. He was a member of the Acacia fraternity, and president of the 1916 class. He was active in debates and oratorical contests, being a member of the Irving literary society, and of the championship debating team. In athletics he was also prominent. He was on the Varsity football squad one year, and a member of the wrestling team, and also of the track team. Veda and Harvey Hindt, a brother and sister, were seniors in the University last year. ARE YOU A DRAFTSWOMAN? Information has been received at the college of applied science that a number of women having training in drafting are needed at once for good position snow open. Any women qualified are asked to communicate with Prof. H. G. Higbee of the department of descriptive geometry and drawing. O. H. Brainerd of the commercial club says they are too busy checking up the pledges, which to date amount to nearly $2,000,000 to celebrate Liberty Day in a fitting manner. Mr. and Mrs. H. F. Quinn of Parnell are stopping at the Van Meter hotel. They were called here Thursday night by the illness of their son Francis, a freshman in the engineering branch of the S.A.T.C
