Robirihood, as the sixth of a series oi programs presented throughout the year by the Stu dent Entertainment Committee, will be staged tonight in Memor ial hall at 8:30 o'clock. The Boston Light Opera company will give the performance. This wrell-known comic opera is one of the most popular ever written. It was first presented in 1890 in Chicago by a group of Bostonians who subsequently became known as the Boston Light Opera company and who produced the play more than 4000 times. The libretto was written by Harry B. Smith, and the music by Reginald De Koven. Several famous musical pieces, including "Oh Promise Me" and "Brown October Ale," are from the opera. - Students not holding enter tainment booklets afid townspeo ple can obtain tickets to the pro gram from the office of Dean A. W. Hobbs or at the door tonight. The opera is laid in the time of Richard I of England in the twelfth century. It presents the ' romantic tale of Robert, Earl of Huntington, who in the guise of Robinhood, leads a band of out law rangers in Sherwood Forest. His love for Lady Marian and his antagonistic struggles with Sir Guy, claimant to the Notting ham estates which Robinhood al so claims, lead into a series of romantic and humorous advent ures. Needless to say, Robin hood conquers his rivals in the end and gains the hand of his sweetheart. .

Advance courses have as ob jectives : (a) the assistance of the student to get insight into his own personal problems that he may more adequately adjust his own peculiarities to the problems of everyday life; (b) training in clinical applications to human problems in crime, poverty, industry, education, and the home; (c) an emphasis upon the technique and the critique of the experimental methods ap- 1 -I a' pnea in tne study ot man. In the course of this survey, it became apparent to the inves tigator that students are begin ning to look to psycnology m their search for solutions to their personal and social problems and are recognizing it as a factor in the efficient administration of various vocations and profes sions. Few, however, take psy chology as a profession in itself, but rather as an avocation, an aid in their lives and works. The introductory course is dis appointing to most students, be cause it is highly technical and text-bookish. Expecting psy chology to prove a panacea for all problems, they object strenu ously to the extensive physiolog ical discussions and the lack of practical material.
