Musical emphasis sparks Revue

Beaufort Woods, producer of the Rock Chalk Revue, said last week that this year's Revue would be the best ever, and after watching Saturday's performance in Hoch Auditorium, it's impossible to disagree. One reason may be that the emphasis on music this year, rather than on comy delivered with sledgehammer delicacy.
The revue featured four different productions exploring the theme "Broadway Bound," which was highlighted by Hashinger Hall's presentation of "Where Curtain Calls Are Few," the production that garnered five of the six ton awards.
Admittedly, the first show, "Everything You Always Wanted To Know About Rock Chai," was given to Sigma Chi and Alpha Chi Omega, appeared that it was going to carry on the time-honored Roc-Chai tradition of Rock Chai for price down with a glut of damage on the hock Stage.
BUT ANY VISIONS of an early exit were quickly dispelled when the chorus erupted in a lively set to the tune of "Please Officer Krupe" from West Side Story. From that point to the performers were on their own, with the performers and some well-coordinated choreography.
The second skit, "Two for the Show," by Phi Gamma Delta and Kappa Kappa Gamma was the only production that relied on the use of a script. Finally, it was the winner of the best script award.
Delta Delta Delta and Pi Kappa Psi, brought the stockmarket to Broadway. Dow Jones (Jay Donohue, Mission Hills freshman) was among those who said, "29, isuckered into buying a down-and-out Broadway musical from swinder E. F. Hutton (Dunlin Glickie), Shawn Mission
Perhaps the funniest bit of the entire evening occurred when news of the market crashed reached Wall Street, and four investors singing "Through the window we see you in a cement far below" formed a rhumba line to a calypso beat and rhumbated out the window.
"TWO For the Show" was the story of old vaudillevian trouppers recounting their past in several well-orchestrated flashback stories, including a lifted vintage, classic routines from the old masters (part of the courtroom sketch was lifted verbatim from the Marx Brothers' movie "Duck Soup") to recreate the skirted slapstick atmosphere of vaudillevian.
"Where Curtain Calls Are Few," the award-winning show presented by Hashinger Hall, explored the difficulties of being on strike because of obnoxious performers.
THE THIRD SHOW, "Rich Man, Con Man,
Bullish on Broadway," presented by
"CURTAIN CALLS" was the best overall production and best performers were Judi Sierling, Lawrence senior, and Rod Lathim. The song "I Could Be Me"; and most effective use of sets, costumes and technical elements won the best production number; best original song, "It Could Be Me"; and most effective use of sets, costumes and technical elements won the best production number.
A unique feature of the production was the stage setting, constructed so that the audience could view the action from a backstage perspective. The rear flat was used to allow the director of Hoch Auditorium, and the "performers" faced that flat when they were backstage.
That "Curtain Calls" was such a strong show does not slight the other three shows. There was no week link in the 2018 edition of *The New York Times* and most of shows ever assembled for a single revue.

THE BILL GOVERNING gubernational records list seven different categories of documents that a government opened for public inspection. They would remain open to the public for three years after a governor leveled restrictions, and they would go to state Historical Society.
They include applications for petitions for pardons, applications for appointments, applications for approval of grants, petitions for calling a special
session of the Legislature and petitions asking the governor to take official action.
Gaar defended his balanced budget resolution, saying if two-thirds of the states approved the same thing, Congress would have no alternative but to call the convention. He said 21 other states had approved a similar proposal.
THE HOUSE met briefly and gave initial approval to two measures.
In the absence of the Agriculture and Livestock Committee, House Speaker John Carlin, D-Smolman, postponed final action on previously endorsed measures until today. Carlin said the committee was touring the Board of Trade in Kansas City.
Representatives tentatively approved a resolution asking for an interim study of the school's climate.
