M,iy 10. —An anachron- j Ism was perpetrated tonight at the i <*reek theater when C Nelson Hack- ' ett's axtmvaa-ansa --Ephraim," was j staged hy Hie .seniors of the Lniver- , sity of California. The play was based on and intended to answer Pro feasor Qay ley's use ot the scriptural, "Eph- ' reliSa Is joined to idols.'' in his cele-j I.rated book, "Idols of Education." With superb disregard for proprie ties in his literary and constructive' work. Hackett clothed brfa characters in Elizabethan ruff* and raiment, while Greek Sods. < 'or\ bantes. gipsies, pashas and medieval personages stalk, -d through his lines. In the first act Pionysiusj comes Willi his Corybantes and sacred frogs to dwell at Oskilami. which, is, of course, "IT. '"•" in tliis act enters Kin_ Ephraim. sovereign of the idols, and the bandarlog. "Hal '(> Twelve," who is arrested when the idol king is ba_ j ished. in t It- second act the exiled Eph raim is received at Gehenna (Stan ford >. and out of the complications J comes a struggle for the "tax." This I brings the action back to Uskiland in I the finale, where a great battle is ! fought outside the theater over the ax, j ending in the rout of the Gehenna j ghosts. iliis battle furnislted tiie occasion for a pyrotechnic display whi'h was a ' feature of the show.

TOLSTOI LAUDED AS A 'MASTER SPIRIT' "Misunderstood and Misinter> preted," Declares Univer= sity Professor BERKELEY. May 10,-— The annual meeting of Alpha chapter of Phi Beta Kappa, oldest of honor societies in American universities, was held this afternoon at Hearst hall. Prof. A. W. Ryder of the University of California read a poem entitled "Tolstoi" and Dr. Jame.s a Blaisdell, president of the Po mona college, delivered the principal address. Professor Ryder's poem dealt with critics of the great Russian, six per sons speaking in the six part:--. Through it could be seen Professor Ryder's es timate of Tolstoi as one of the master spirits of mankind, misunderstood and misinterpreted hy schools of idle criti cism. Doctor Blaisdelis*address dealt with "The Expanding Age in American Scholarship." He gave a history of the spirit or trend of education In Amer ica from the time of the Pilgrim fathers down to the present era, "It is." he said, "the peculiar glory pf American schools and educators to | have wrought on the rule of definite educative purposes. We have been preoccupied n.»t a little with endow- I merits and the la> ing of bricks and I stones. Educational purposes have sometimes seemed confused. Never [ theless, they are an organic whole and j there has never yet been on the face |of the earth a nation heir to so high |an educational idealism. "The flr:-t sc-Jiool on New England I soil was not a privilege nor an acci ; dent. It was the expression of a New ! England intention. Those men. of the | type of Cromwell's men, saw In edu | cation another expression of their ! strenuous militarism. The purpose of | the school, therefore, was to create leaders in a church and state; In a | word, to bring forth masters of gov ; ernment." j Prof. Charles Derleth Jr., dean of the I college of civil engineering, presided lat the meeting.
