'45 Alumna Sings In Carnegie Hall
Nadyne Brewer, who was graduated as a voice major from the University in 1945, made her New York debut Jan. 30 in Carnegie hall
The New York Times reviewen stated that "the young singer has
pure, fresh, well-controlled voice that she can make tenderly expressive in long-sustained phrases. Everything she did was musically accurate, careful in style, and sympathetic in interpretation, and her enunciation was a model of clarity. Altogether it was a more than usually promising debut."
While at KU Miss Brewer studied with Miss Meribah Moore, associate professor of voice.
Miss Brewer lives in Kansas City at the present time.

Schroeder Believes Division OfOpinionMarksDemocracy
Indian General Attacks Principle Of Repatriation
Panmunjom — (U.P.)— Lt. Gen. K. S. Thimayya disclosed today that he opposes the principle of voluntary repatriation for prisoners of war.
Democracy, the ideal church, and the relationship between religion and morals were commented upon by Dr. John C. Schroeder yesterday, when interviewed by the Kansan. Dr. Schroeder is chairman of the Department of Religion at Yale university, and principal speaker for Religious Emphasis week.
By TAYLOR RHODES
"Democracy flourishes only when you have a division of opinion," Dr. Schroeder observed. The significance of democracy is not so much that it is a rule of the majority, but that it is a protection of minorities, he said.
Projecting this into the realm of the church, Dr. Schroeder presented his version of the ideal church as one where people with different religious views worshipped together. From the fusing of the various opinions will appear a greater approach to religion than any of the individual conceptions, he said.
"As a soldier, I'm dead against it," Gen. Thimayya, whose neutral commission was dissolved last night, said.
"Once we accept that an army can go across and desert its country, it becomes a frightful precedent."
But Dr. Schroeder cautioned that without a constructive approach too much divergence may degrade the church to a "theological debating society."
"Life would be dead if we all had the same opinion," Dr. Schroeder said, but without some agreement there is no progress." "Life is in tension between these two extremes," he said, adding we must keep them in balance.
The Indian general also criticized prison camp indoctrination.
Since arriving in Korea, Gen Thimayya had withheld comment on voluntary repatriation, a principle so vital to the United Nations that the Allies fought an additional year until the Communists agreed to let the prisoners decide whether they wanted to go home.
"In any age where religion—particularly the Christian religion—is highly developed, people are bound to recognize the disparity between their religious vision, and their ethical action." Thirty years ago students found religious experience in ethical actions. Today, students are more interested in theological problems.
charges that although more people belong to churches our morals are lowering, Dr. Schroeder made the following observations:
People should begin to explore the meaning of belief. The results will be more ethical actions. Perhaps our present interest in theological problems makes us more cognizant of our ethical deficiencies, he concluded.
Asked to comment on the recent
Gen. Thimayya said he was convinced that allied agents had been planted in anti-Communist camps, and he is now investigating the Communist military command.
Dr. Ireland to Lead Technical Program
The general said in an informal interview he had tried many times to convince prisoners of both sides that they should accept repatriation.
"As best as I could make out, these camps were filled with people from South Korea and Taiwan (Formosa) who gave lectures to them (the prisoners)," Gen. Thimayya said.
This is Dr. Schroeder's second visit to the University. He has been KU baccalaureate speaker. Actively associated with college students for a score of years, his interests cover the field from religion to participation in the Yale Athletic association.
