MEDICS ELECT OFFICERS Plan Series of Social Events Another Meeting Soon At a meeting of the pre-medics in the chemistry lecture room yesterday afternoon, the following officers were elected, Leslie Weber, president; Esther Mackintosh, vice president; Harry Moen, secretary; Robert Smith, treasurer. Prof. J.H. Crowell, will act as advisor. In previous years pre-medics have organized earlier in the year, but this year conditions have prevented meetings. A series of social events will probably be arranged. Another meeting at which all pre-medics are urged to be present will be held on Friday, March 7, at 3 o'clock, at the chemistry lecture room. Definite arrangements will be made at this time, for a dance. IOWANS CONTINUE TO CONTRIBUTE TO EDUCATION YEARBOOK Prof. Ernest Horn of the education and Dean C.E. Seashore of the graduate college have written articles for the eighteenth yearbook fo the National Society of Education. Professor Horn's article is entitled "Principles of Methods in Teaching Reading as derived from Scientific Investigations." and Dean Seashore's "The Role of a Consulting Supervisor in Music." Prof. Frederick C. Ayer of the University of Washington, formerly of the college of educaton, also has an article on "The Present Status of Drawing with Respect to Scientific Investigation." Lieut. J.C. Fergueson, graduate has resumed his law practice at Creston. DR. V. STEFFANSSON WILL GIVE LECTURE ABOUT ARTIC TRIP Was Graduated From University in 1903-Took Graduate Work at Harvard WRITES FOR MAGAZINE Discovered Blonde Esquimo and has Spent About Ten Years In For North Vilhjalmur Stefansson, noted artic explorer will give his illustrated lecture, "Five years in the Artice" tomorrow night at the natural science auditorium, at 8 o'clock. The explorer is coming to the University under the auspices of the Woman's League and the proceeds are for the refurnishings of the liberal arts drawing room. Dr. Stefansson was graduated from the liberal arts college here in 1903, and while here he was an active member of the Philomathean literary society. From here he went to Harvard where he attened the graduate school from 1904-1906. There are no explorers who have spent as much time, continously in Artic explorations as has Stefansson. This means that he has been subject to certain influences which have greatly hampered many polar explorations on account of the development of certain diseases. This is one of the conditions with which the ill-fated Scott expedition to the South Pole contended. This disease in question is scurvy. Stefansson, himself, suffered from this disease as well as typhoid fever, pneumonia, and pleurisy while he was in the artic regions. He has certain theories regarding the causations and prevention of scurvy which he has laid before the medical profession, and which will be of great assistance to future explorers. Fortunately, Stefansson has completely regained his health since his return to this country. Dr. Stefansson has written for a great many magazines and many periodicals are now carrying stories by him concerning his explorations in the far north. Mr. Stefansson has been studying Artic regions and the nothern habitants for the past ten years. University authorities concede him to be perhaps the greatest alumnus of this school. The discovery of the blond esquimo was made by Victoria land, farther east than any other white man has gone, on May 13, 1910. Dr. Stefansson spent the summer with these people whose ancestors had never seen or even heard of a white man. The tickets for the Stefansson lecture are being sold around the campus by University girls and at Whetstone's drug store and the Book and Craft Store. the price of admission is 50 cents. ARTS ECHIBIT Mathiesen & Shuck are having an art exhibit at their Book and Craft shop yesterday and today, F. C. Bush is conducting the exhibit. Color prints and etchings in modern art are being shown. HESPERIA The meeting scheduled for tonight will be postponed until Tuesday, January 11th, on account of the N.O.L. contest. Pauline Peters '17 is doing hospital work at St. Arthur, New York. PROF. SOARES SPEAKS AT VESPERS MARCH 16 Theodore G. Soares of the theological department of the University of Chicago will speak at the next vesper, March 16. Professor Soares has just returned from France where he has been lecturing in army camps. His subject will be "It Must Never Happen Again." Professor Soares gave a dramatic reading on the book of Job at the auditorium last year. The vesper choir composed of the Men's and the Women's glee clubs will sing, and the University orchesera will play. WILL TALK ON ITALY'S PART IN THE WAR Prof. Charles Upson Clark, director of classical studies at the American Academy in Rome, will give a University lecture in the natural science auditorium Monday evening, March 17. His subject, "With Italy At War," will be illustrated by lantern slides, which were taken by Italian soldier-photographers and loaned to Professor Clark. These pictures show the fighting and conditions along with Piave last June where Italy started the offensive which developed into a victory changing the whole coruse of the war and preventing Austrain aid from reaching the Germans for the attack of July 15. Besides describing the wor of the Italian army, Prof. Clark will tell how the government is meeting its financial and military requirements, and what Italy expects of the United States in solving the problems of reconstruction.

HAWKEYE CLINCH STATE CHAMPIONSHIP BY DEFEATING AMES Hawkeyes Down Old Rivals in Fast Well Played Game by 28-20 Score BROWN AND BERRIEN STAR Bannick's Men Take Early LEad-SPlendid GUarding by Both Teams Features Contest Iowa clinched the state college basketball championship Saturday night by once more triumphing over the old rivals at Ames by a score of 28 to 20. This game was the last state battle on the Old Gold schedule and the winning of it, gives the Hawkeyes a clean slate in state circles. Coe, Cornell, and Ames, the three strongest fives in Iowa, have all fallen before Coach Bannick's men by comfortable margins. Coe came nearer to beating Iowa than any of the others but this contest was one of the first of the season, at a time when the Old Gold tossers were unorganized. Ames put up an excellent fight in the contest Saturday night, but superior guarding by the two Iowa defense men kept their teams out of danger. Fast basketball was a feature of the battles, and the polished play of both quintets was in striking contest to the ragged showing of the two rivals on Iowa floor two weeks ago. Remarkable guarding by both defense prevented very many close up shots and baskets were made from a long range as a consequence. Iowa took an early lead soon after the first whistle, and scored six points before the Arggies got started. Although Ames kept fairly close to the visitors, the farmers never threatened. Brown, Iowa's great little guard, made a repuation for himself in Argie land with his brilliant guarding. Once he managed to slip down the floor for a pretty ringer. Captain Berrien led his team mates in the scoring column with a total of five field goals. Olson followed closely with four ringers and Cotton broke into the tally with a pair of counters. Shepherd, the diminutive forward who performed well at Iowa two weeks ago, was again the mainstay of the Cyclone five. He made two baskets and maintained a fast pace on the floor. Lineup and summary: Iowa 28 Ames 20 Berrien RF Willmek Cotton LF Shepherd Olson C Levsen Brown RG Robinson Nichilaus LG White Subsitutions. R.W. Miller for WIllimek, R.J. Miller for Robinson. Summary-Field goals, Berrien 5, Cotton 2, Olson 4, Brown, Nicholaus, Willmek, Shepherd 2, Levsen 2, White, R.W. Miller; free throws, Brown 2 out of 5, Shepherd 4 out of 11, R.W. Miller 0 out of 1. Official- Referee, Hedges of Dartmouth. Rosetta Rockhill, a student of Valparaiso university, visited her sister Mabel over the week end, while on her way to Larchwood to spend her spring vacation. Eva Richardson of Albia, who left school before the end of the first quarter, has resumed her studies again.
