'U' Students Star

the screen as well as in the audi-

gan" before their regular film this

Dogs Put Bite
On an' Cast
"Mike" and "Rielly," the canine
semi-finalists for a part in the
speech department's, play, "The
Fan," were both unable to pass
the final test of any actor-dress
rehearsal.
It appeared to be a case of cri-
tic's judgment, not actor's temper-
ament, as both bulldog "Mike"
and "Rielly", the Great Dane, at-
tempted to bite members of the
cast.
Director Prof. Hugh Norton,
of the speech department, fin-
ally settled on a peaceful Ger-
man shepherd to "play the part"
of a country gentleman's dog in
the 18th century farce.
The German shepherd will make
his stage debut tomorrow when
"The Fan" opens in Lydia Men-
delssohn theater at 8 p.m.
There will be special student
rates of 50 cents tomorrow and
Thursday. Tickets for the play,
which will run through Saturday,
may be obtained at the Lydia
Mendelssohn theater box office.
Regular prices are 60 cents, 90
cents and $1.20.

BEGINS LECTURE SERIES:
Jones Traces 'Pursuit of Happiness'
a'.I

By TOM ARP
The question "What is happi-
ness?" is one that is often evaded
and seldom defined, according to
Prof. Howard Mumford Jones of
Harvard University.
Delivering the first of five Wil-
liam C. Cook lectures yesterday,
Prof. Jopes traced the history of

the phrase "pursuit of happiness"
as it is found in the Declaration
of Independence.
HE POINTED OUT that the
phrase was not used in early gov-
ernment documents in England,
but first appeared in the colonies
in the Virginia Declaration of

Rights which preceded the sever-
ance of the ties with the British
Empire.
According to Prof. Jones,
George Mason, a Virginia colon-
ist influential in philosophical
and political thought in America
in the early decades of its exis-
tence, first coined the phrase.
It was adopted by Thomas Jef-
ferson in July, 1776, in his draft
of the Declaration of Indepen-
dence. Since then it has found its
way into more than two-thirds of
the state constitutions, Prof. Jones
said.

IN AN ATTEMPT to arrive at a
definition of "happiness," he quot-
ed a diversity of views on the sub-
ject, and then stated that "the
only sensible thing to do is to ap-
plaud that statement of Archbish-
op Wately when he said that hap-
piness is no laughing matter."
If we confine our views to the
notion of private happiness held
by a majority of the committee
which drew up the Declaration
of Independence, we shall have
to infer that in making the pur-
suit of happiness an inalienable
right, they were guaranteeing
the American citizen the ghastly
privilege of pursuing a phantom
and embracing a delusion," Prof.
Jones asserted.
The Harvard English professor
will deliver his second lecture in
the series at 4:15 p.m. today at
Rackham Lecture Hall. The topic
to be presented is entitled "As By
an Invisible Hand," a discourse on
the various definitions of the "pur-
suit of happiness" made by courts
throughout the country.

Class Ranks
Open To All
By Marines
A Marine Platoon Leader's Class,
which in the past has been bound
by a strict quota system, will now
be opened to an almost unlimited
number of men if sufficient in-
terest is shown in the progran,
according to Captain Lester E.
Veigel, of the University's Naval
ROTC.
The course, sponsored by the
Marine Corps, has no specific
class requirements, such as
drills, and is not affiliated with
the ROTC. It is open to all Uni-
versity men except seniors.
UNDER THE Marine Corp's Of-
ficer Procurement Program, the
course requires that a man under-
go two six-week training periods
during two separate summers.
Paris Island, N.C., is the scene
of the first summer camp, at
which the trainee is given the
rank of a corporal. He becomes a
sergeant at the next training'
camp, held at Quantico, Va.
During his stay at college, the
enrollee is deferred from the Se-
lective Service, and upon gradu-
ation from any program he
chooses, he is commissioned in
the Marine Corps.
If called to active duty, the new
officer goes through a special four
month training program, serves
for a total of eight -years-two ac-
tive and three in the reserves.
* * *
"TO GET INTO the course, a
man has only a few requirements
to meet, most of which are rou-
tine," Capt. Veigel pointed out.
"He has to be between 18 and
25 years old at graduation, in good
standing with the University, a
non-veteran, unattached to any
other service organization a n d
must pass a rigid physical exami-
nation. It's the examination that
trips most men up, especially the
eye test," he said.
"And a man can drop out of
the course at any time before re-
ceiving his commission," Capt.
Veigel noted.
For further information about
the training program, interested
men may contact Capt. Veigel at
North Hall.
