,ON AR4T IN POETRHY
English Professor Says Eighteenth
Century Was Not Typical
Era of Prose{
IT WAS AGE OF ART
"One of the main distinctions of1
eighteenth century poetry is that the
second-rate poetry of that period is}
more readable than the second-rate
poetry of any other age," said Prof.
Louis I. Bredvold of the English de-1
partment in his lecture on "The Ele-
ment of Art in Eighteenth Century
Poetry" given in Natural Science au-
ditorium yesterday afternoon.
"A notion often expressed is that
the eighteenth century was one of
reason and, therefore, of prose. This'
is a double error, both in fact and in
theory. That reason was not domin-
ant is shown in the writings of both
Pope and Dryden, which are extreme-
ly emotional. In theory people were
apt to believe that this was a age of
reason, which thus prevented them
from enjoying the real values of the
poetry. If this were true it would
be necessary to rule out a great deal
of what is called art, as Greek sculp-
ture, and the writings of Shakespeare
and Browning."
"Art makes its primary appeal to
the imagination which flows as in ac-
cord. The imagination appreciates
art. Invention or imagination was un-
iversally looked upon by the ancients
as the soul of poetry. This is as
good hypothesis to adopt for the study
of art in eighteenth century poetry."
Coaches' All Star
Team Plays Today
At 6 o'clock tomorrow the coaching
school all-star baseball team will play
the Pratt and Dunn team of City
league in an exhibition game at Ferry
Field. No admission will be charged.
Although quite a number of players
of known baseball ability are in the
coaches' line-up, the team experience
of the Pratt and Dunn organization
should give them the advantage. The
s batteries for the coaches are: Roberts,
--Brown, pitchers, and Cody, Carty,
catchers. O'Hara will pitch for Pratt
and Pratt and Dunn and Edgar will
catch.

1924 RECEIPTS GREATER
The University Fresh Air camp tag
day, which was held on the campus
yesterday, netted a total of $325. Al-
though this amount falls short of the
quota of $400 which was set for the
students of the Summer session, it is
hoped that the remainder of the $1;,000
which is needed to continue the camp
for the rest of the season will be
contributed by townspeople and other
friends of the camp.
Students of the Summer session
last year contributed an amount
slightly in excess of that secured this
year, namely $338.
There were many one dollar gifts
made yesterday, one ten dollar gift,
and one twenty-five dollar gift.
The seventeen boys and four lead-
ers from the camp who sold the tags
on the campus were the' guests of the
Majestic theater last night.

Original Ending of Play Used By Or.
ganization; Two Hore Plays
Planned This Week
"Miss Lulu Bett" by Zona Gale will
be presented by the Wisconsin Players
at 8:15 o'clock tonight, in University
hall auditorium.
This is Miss Gale's first full length
play, and won for her the Pulitzer
prize as being the best play of Ain-
erican life, when it was produced in
New York a few years ago.hThe play
appeals particularly to the middle
western audiences as its scenes are
laid here in the middle west( and it
portrays accurately the everyday life
around us. This is shown by the
fact that three years ago, when the
Players took it on tour through Wis-
consin and northern Illinois, at each
town the audience thought that some
of the lines or situations were put in
especially for them, in other words,
"local gags." For example, the night-
ly pilgrimages of Diana to the "i-
berry" would find a quick and enthus-
iastic response from the audience in
one town, wile in some other city the
audience would particularly react to
some other incident of the play.
The vicissitudes of the lowly "Iulu"
and her final emergence from intellec.
tual and domestic serfdom made a
quick appeal to the sympathy of each
audience while grouchy "Grandma"
and bullying "Dwight," smug and self-
satisfied, schemed to awaken in each
auditor, memories of "folks" well
known.
As presented on Broadway the play
ended in a more or less conventional
way that was deemed necessary for
"sophisticated" New York audiences.
As given by the Players, the original
and logical ending of the play is used
so that the story is made true tolife
and therefore makes a greater appeal.
Sophocles' "Antigone," one of the
greatest of the classical Greek trag-
edies, will be given tomorrow night,
and "Fashion," a comedy of the nine-
teenth century, written by Anna Cora
Mowatt, Saturday night.
D0,R.UGKN TO SPEAKm
TODAY ON PIDEMICS
Dr. V. C. Vaughn, Dean of the De-
partment of Medicine and Surgery
from 1891 to 1921, will lecture on
"Personal Experiences in Epidemics"
at five o'clock this afternoon in Nat-
ural Science auditorium. Doctor
Vaughan has had a wide experience in
the field of epidemics and his lecture
promises to be one of interest to the
non-professional as well as to the pro-
fessional man.
For a period of over forty-five
years, Doctor Vaughn was a member
of the faculty of the Medical School
in the capacity of instructor, profess-
or and dean.
