During the past 10 years the study of current events has become increasingly important in American schools. The re cent swift-moving panorama of events in Europe, Asia, and the United States has created confusion and subsequent student-intercst-loss through the diffi culty of correlating events with places at which they occurred. To combat this problem, editors of News Map of the Week decided to read and assimilate the news and to present it graphically, thereby insuring a quick and accurate view of the news. The maps entitled World News of the Week that are displayed in the foyer of the library are a result of this plan. Dramatists Present Everyman on May 6 (Continued from page 1, column 2) Ruth Shmigelsky, senior art major, is designing and building two sets, one rep resenting a cliff-like elevation, and one with an arched window outlined and a stained glass effect achieved by Lonno- bach projectors. Freshman drama stu dents are assisting as crew members. Although Everyman is authorless, its story is found in a religious romance, Barlaam and Jehosaphat, ascribed to John of Damascus, who died about 770 A.D. Scholars believe that it was prob ably written in dramatic form in the fifteenth century by a Dutch priest. Petrus Dorlandus of Diest. Judge Padden Urges Use of Voting Power Addresses League of Women Voters, April 5 Speaking to members of the League of Women Voters, the honorable Frank M. Padden, judge of the Superior court, discussed the background of the political workings of the United States at the April 5 meeting. The judge is the father of junior Mary Frances Padden. Judge Padden pointed out that the elasticity of the Federal Constitution enables it to meet any new situation ade quately. A contrast of it with the Illinois State Constitution, he observed, reveals the latter to be too detailed to move quickly enough in meeting new trends in the life of the state. The Judge left his audience with the thought that they could not enjoy meet ing in a peaceful room to discuss demo cracy without paying for the privilege by using the power that will keep it for them the power of the vote.
