is the University Of North Dakota
or the map? Is 1t beginning to take
nlacc us one of the }eading schools in
tbs part of the country? Is it winning
recognition from other and larger
schools as an institution worthy Of
note? Is it deserving Of mention be-
cause of the showing made in inter-
collegiate contests this season?
To one who has been paying any
attention whatever to the activities
and accomplishments Of the university
during the last few months, these
questions seem rather absurd and m
pertinent. For one has only to make
a hurried review OF the records the
school has made this ycAr to learn
hat the University of North Dakota
is placing itself c~onspicuonsly on the
map and winning L wide recognition.
In practically every. case of intercol-
lcgiate competition L. n. n. has come
forth victorious during the l92O-2l
season. The year has been n of I'M
p~recedented success, taking every de-
partment of student activity into con-
sideration. In scholarship, in drama,
in basketball, in football, in oratory,
in debate, success has been met in the
highest degree. Another way in which
honor has come to the students is
through the granting of s~elf-govern-
,ment to them by university authori-
ties. An innovation. or, rather. a re-
innovation. this year was the publica-
ton of a special issue Of The Student
by men on the campus. Besides these
things, U. N. D. now claims the honor
of having probably the largest per-
centage of the student body taking
part in intermWal athletics of any
school in the northwest. If not in the
country. The Inauguration OF an in
tercollegiate extemporaneous speaking
contest this year gives the school an
other mark of distinction.

That the University Of North Dako-
ia is turning out scholars is evidenced
in the fact that both of the Rhodes
scholarships offered to educational in
stitutions in this state were won by
university students last fall. Gjems
Fraser and Franc Crawford of the
class of 1920 winning the hopors.
Seven students from. institutions
throughout the state made application
for these scholarships this year, the
Agricultural college and jamestown
college both being represented in the
competition. Each school is allowed
only two applicants and xrom the list
this year the two L. N. D.. men were
selected.

on their personal record and in some
cases by personal interview. Both OF

DRAMA.

: In drama our school has long been
recognized as a leader In the state,
having made a name for itself in this
Connection throughout the northwest.
but the work this year of the Dakota
Playmakers, the dramatic society of
the university, has drawn an unusual
amount of attention to this phase of
student activity. The annual presen-
tation of the Playnlakers last Febru-
ever shown by members of the organ

Plymouth Town by name, is to be
given a tour of the state during the
coming week, the first step of this
nature attempted by the society since
the 1916-17 season.
The success of the play. is best given
out in the words of George A. Benson,
dramatic critic, who has seen prac-
tically every production put on by
the university players. To quote his
review: The Dakota Playmakers
never have done better acting. In
many respects. it was the most fin

ADDED FORENSIC FEATURES

F; ADDED FORENSIC FEATURES
Another feature OF the forensic
program 1t the university this year
will be the staging of the first inter-
oollegiate extemporaneous speaking
contest tn the history Of the school
this event to be contested with Mac
alester College. some time In Apfti.
This ID a contest maintained. in but
few universities and colleges through
out the country. It puts North Dakota
to the front as one Of the leaders in
interest in this phase Of
forensic activity.
Students In this event win be given
q short time preliminary to the final
event In which to prepare talks in
composition with fhe opposing school.
This will be a dual. event, q contest
being held here and at MacAlestsr 1t
the same time. Three students will
represent each school, these % be
picked by intermural, compstidou ear
Tier in the season.
Without a doubt this event has en-
tered the university calendar to fe-

ture It may be possible to arrange
contests of a similar nature with 9TH

Thi1 alone speaks for the record oA
the 1920 season. North Dakota had
the best eleven On the gridiron in the
Dakotas. No game vas lost IN these
two states and only one tie was met;
that being at the hands of the S. D.U.
by a score Of z to z. This game was
played ON a vet and slippery field, ac.

passing, wherein N. DIS strength lay

Nor did the U. N. d. make a poo,
showing outside the state. In tbs
contest with Valparaiso on Thanksgiv.

while Valparaiso. represented by an
unusually speedy eleven, succeeded in
| getting across only 20. Marquette, Of
Michigan, also Led the Flickertails by
| only 10 points, The opening battle o.
the season with Minnesota, though q
defeat, marks special credit to. the U
N. D. For the first time in years oul
men succeeded in making . score
against the Gopher crew.
Only three games were lost during
the entire season and these were no
greatly disastrous. A SUMMARIZE
