Mr. Kell, a British virtuoso, made his American debut in New York's Town Hall in 1948. He has been called "the world's greatest clarinetist" by Life magazine. In Europe he played with many chamber ensembles and was guest artist with major symphony orchestras. He was soloist with such conductors as Toscanini and Sir Thomas Beecham.
Miss Kowland appeared with the Buffalo symphony at the age of nine and with the Toronto symphony at eleven. She has toured for two seasons, giving over 100 concerts throughout the United States and Canada. She has appeared in recitals in Town Hall.
"How many automobiles were manufactured in 1942?" "What type of ceremonial costume does a regal Tibetan wear?" "Where can the proper form for a business letter be found?"
Other programs of the Chamber Music series will be given by the Quintetto Boccherini, the Berkshire Quartet, and the Paganini Quartet. Season and individual tickets are available now at the School of Fine Arts office.
Mr. Ritter studied at the Peabody conservatory in Baltimore. In 1942 he won a scholarship at Tanglewood, where he worked with the late Serge Koussevitzky. After a New York recital debut at Town Hall in 1947, he performed for five seasons in recital tours throughout the United States.
References Shown
Mr. Shapinsky has been a member of chamber groups from New York to Dallas. His cello, which has been in his family for three generations, is a Lorenzo Guadagnini, made in 1734. Mr. Shapinsky has performed with Stokowski, Toscanini, Reiner, and Dorati.
The answers to these and other questions can be found in reference books shown by the "Information at Large" exhibit now in Watson library. The exhibit is in conjunction with freshmen English classes' library tours this week.
On display are examples of the 5,300 reference volumes available to students. These books may be used in the reference room.
Geneticist Tells of Experiment
Dr. Falconer, a geneticist in the Institute of Animal Genetics at the University of Edinburgh in Scotland, discussed "The Inheritance of Size."
The results of recent experiments in weight and litter size and lactation in mice were explained Monday in a lecture by Dr. D. S. Falconer.
He also showed how experiments were being conducted to control the amount of milk produced by the female.

Dr. Falconer said that because of the difficulties of producing larger or smaller animals the normal animal "must be best."
Using slides to illustrate, Dr. Falconer showed how he was able by selective breeding to produce giant and dwarf mice, how he increased size of litters in relationship to the larger mice, and the discovery of decrease in litter size due to inbreeding the parents and offspring.
Latin Professor To Speak
Miss Winnie Lowrance, assistant professor of Latin, will speak at a Latin roundtable discussion in Hutchinson Thursday.
The Campus Chest will donate 10 per cent of its collections to fight cancer through the Damon Runyon Fund for Cancer Research. The fund will receive $769.30 of the Campus Chest goal.
The fund helps support the Sloan-Kettering Institute for Cancer Research in New York.
Chest to Aid Damon Runyon Cancer Fund
The organization was founded in 1946 by Walter Winchell in dedication to his friend, Damon Runyon. Mr. Runyon, a famous newspaperman who was born in Manhattan, Kan., died of cancer in April, 1946. By 1948 contributions had reached $2 million.
The specific purpose of the Damon Runyon fund is to finance research on the causes and cures of cancer.
Three ways to cure cancer—surgery, X-ray, and radium—have been discovered and more are being tested. Each case is a separate problem, and what may mean a cure for one person, may not be applicable to another. However, most cases can be stopped if treated early.
(Editor's Note—this is the last in a series

In 1953 there were 1,723 cancer cases reported to the Kansas State Board of Health. The disease, which is a disorderly growth of cells in the body, can strike anyone and develop in any part of the body.

Cancer might be eliminated entirely if the cause or causes could definitely be established. This will come about only through more research, and more research requires more money.

Museum of Art Adds 2 Paintings
The Gillis Van Tilbarch painting, which depicts an artist in his studio with his friends, contains several small paintings within the main work. Each of these "inner" paintings represents almost every type of art that was popular in 17th century Flanders.
Two new paintings have been added to the collection at the Museum of Art. They are "Ertium Heals Godfrey of Boulon" by Francesco Soliema (1654-1747) and "The Artist and His Friends in His Studio" by Gillis Van Tilbarch (1625-1678).
The paintings are now on display for the public in the main exhibition room of the museum.
Roland Tatsuguchi, graduate student from Hawaii, told the sociology club Friday that the first Japanese that came to the United Sates were very much like the first colonists.
U.S. Japanese Problems Told
They were rebelling against their native government or came here for economic purposes, the student said. Many planned to make their money and return to Japan, but the war prevented their return.
Because of their agricultural background, most of the Japanese that came here first did farm work. When they started moving to cities they worked mostly in hotels, apartments, grocery stores, and laundries. This type of work did not give them much influence in their communities. Tatsuguchi said that this may be why the Japanese stuck so close together.
Because of their system of obligations most Japanese have a higher respect for most things than Americans do. "Here, when the whistle blows the students start getting ready to leave. In Japan this is not done because the students have more respect for their teachers."
The University chapter of Sigma Chi was recently awarded second place in the fraternity's national publication competition for last year.
Sometimes the Japanese find it hard to get along in the American society because their ideas of obligations and respect differ from those of the Americans, Tatsuguchi said. "The Japanese boy would not think of showing his affection for his girl in public."
The KU Sigma Chi publications, which received the honor were a rush book and two alumni newsletters. Larry Miller, who was graduated in June, and Robert Tranner, college senior, was editor of the newsletters.
