'Little Man' On Display
A collection of Dick Bibler's "Little Man On Campus" originals is on display in the William Allen White Reading Room in Flint Hall. They were presented to the Albert T. Reid Collection last month.
Mr. Bibler's cartoon characters are syndicated in American colleges newspapers and his "Little Man" characters, Worthal and Prof. Snarf, currently may be seen in 265 college publications.
The artist was not a "little man" on this campus. A veteran, he enrolled at the University in 1946 and, after winning an art contest, became a cartoonist for the University Daily Kansan.
"My idea with Worthal," said Mr. Bibler, "was to create a face anyone would feel sorry for." His loyelies, inspired by "three lonesome years on a South Pacific atoll with the Army" are often referred to as "sin-dicated stuff." During his 34 months overseas, he was a staff artist for Yank magazine.

Mexico Discussed At Sociology Club
Weather
"Mexico today has a long road to travel to achieve prosperity at home and honor among nations. The Mexican people with a consciousness of their great past and hope for the future are determined to carve a fatherland for themselves," Davis said.

Fog and drizzle are expected in the northeast and central portions of the state and some light rain or drizzle in the north tonight or Saturday. It will be colder in the north and central tonight and over most of the state Saturday. The high today will be in the 40s north-east to about 70 southwest.

Relays Group Makes Plans
Information on the Kansas Relays to be held April 20 and 21, is being sent to schools that might wish to enter the competition, Don Johnston, Pittsburg, and John Simpson, Salina, senior managers of the Relays committee, said today. High school events are slated for Friday, the 20th, and college events will be run the following day.
"We can expect some top flight performers to compete this year," Simpson said, "because of keen interest in the Olympic games this summer."
No Relays theme has been chosen, but Bob Elliott, Wichita junior in charge of selecting a theme, said, "We may decide to sponsor a contest for original theme ideas and suggestions. At any rate, we'll have a theme in plenty of time for float builders to do a good job."

Pygmalion also has a dramatic touch, although it is Shaw's warmest comedy. He offers both excellent character studies and a satirical view of the English social systems.
Liza Doolittle, played by Marjorie Smith, Wichita graduate student, is taken off the street by Henry Higgins, played by Thomas Sawyer, Topeka freshman. Henry attempts to her turn into a lady to win his bet with Colonel Pickering, played by Kenneth Evans, Kansas City, Mo., sophomore. Liza complicates the bet by falling in love with Henry.
Other members of the cast are: Glenn Pierce, Lawrence sophomore, as Freddy Eynsford Hill; Jerome Hanken, Cincinnati, Ohio graduate student, Alfred Doolittle; Gary Porter, Columbus junior, a bystander; Dale Bellerose, Lawrence freshman, a sarcastic bystander; Joan Rosenwald, Topeka junior, Mrs. Eynsford; Shirley Anderson, Torpeka sophomore, Miss Eynsford Hill; Ruth Doddrill, Westchester, Pa., graduate student, Mrs. Pierce; Carol Lobman, Lawrence graduate student, Mrs. Pierce; Rosemary Griffin, Rock Port, Mo., familiar, parlaed andLawrence Weaver, Lawrence senior, taxi driver.
Londoners who seek shelter from the rain in the portico of a church are Elsie Willan, Medicine Lodge sophomore; Marvin Carlson, Wichita junior; Thomas Engle, Kansas City, Mo., freshman, and Caroline Watkins, Cobleskill, N.Y., freshman.
Jack Brooking, instructor in speech, is the director and Milton Howard, instructor of speech, is in charge of both the set and costume designs.
Students who wish to drop courses must talk to the dean of their school or the adviser who originally approved their schedule, Registrar James K. Hitt said. "The original schedule is a contract between the dean and the student and may be changed only on the approval of the dean."
Hitt Outlines 'Drop' Steps
Courses which are dropped before March 7 are cancelled from the enrollment of the student and do not appear on his permanent record, Courses dropped after March 7 remain on the student's permanent record with a grade of WD or F, depending on whether the student is passing or failing the subject at the time of withdrawal.
"The dean does not have to approve the dropping of a course, and a student may receive an F on the dean's request even if he drops the course before March 7," Mr. Hitt said.
Student Art Work Displayed In Union
A student exhibit from the Broanbrook Academy of Art, Bloomfield Hills, Mich., will be on display until March 19 in the Student Union lounge.
The 100 pieces in the exhibit are from the departments of painting, sculpture, ceramics, textiles, metal-smithing, architecture and design, and will circulate through colleges and universities in the South and Midwest.
