been dropped and the money was
invested in bonds.
It was also suggested to Cabinet
that the College of Physical Edu
cation and Athletics might donate
$6OOO insurance money it received
after a recreation cabin burned
several years ago.
However, Tuesday Ernest_ B.
McCoy, dean of the Physical Edu
cation College, said his college
had no money to contribute to
wards the project.
The Beaver Dam Project, when
completed, would consist of an
artificial lake covering 20 acres,
a central building which will ac
commodate 200 persons in its din
ing halls, and four units of cabins
and tents for campers.
Sheltered outdoor cooking areas
and hiking trails, electrical and
water facilities, and a mile long
paved road from the main high
way to the area, will also be
considered in the project.
Cabinet will also give second
approval to a recommendation to
purchase a $2359.70 piano for Rec
reation Hall.
Cabinet accepted the recom
mendation of the Inter-Class Fi
nance Board to purchase the
Steinway grand piano after it was
pointed out that the existing pi
ano at Rec Hall is in poor condi
tion.
Philip Beard, retiring All-Uni
versity secretary-treasurer, asked
Cabinet members to seriously
consider the purchase and express
their thoughts at tonight's meet
ing before the final vote is taken,
in view of the narrow margin
which the proposal was passed by
last week. Cabinet voted 12-8 to
purchase the piano at its last
meeting.

Zelko Quoted
In Magazine
Is oratory dying?
Harold P. Zelko, professor of
public speaking, is quoted on the
subject of oratory in the current
issue of Cosmopolitan magazine.
Zelko says that the oratory of
yore, such as practiced by Wil
liam Jennings Bryan and others,
is all but extinct.
He credits the passing of this
type of oratory to the microphone
which roots the speaker to one
spot and permits -no shouting,
strutting, or acrobatics. Rigid
radio and television time limits;
new sourese of entertainment to
replace the orator, and the higher
education and greater sophistica
tion of present-day audiences
were also listed as reasons.
