'Petticoat Fever' Production To Be Arena Staged in Union
The Student Union will be one of the few in the United States to be used for theater productions when "Petticoat Fever" is presented there tonight through Friday.
Because the play is to be arena staged, with the audience seated in a circle around the acting area, spectators will be limited to 125 for each of the three performances. No one will be admitted without a ticket, which may be obtained free at the Student Union information desk. ID cards need not be presented.
Frank Burge, Student Union director, said he was "delighted to see the Union used in this way. The imagination and enthusiasm of those working in 'Petticoat Fever' pleases me. If theater-in-the-round proves entertaining to audiences, it will be just one more way the Union can be useful to the students."
James Wright, graduate student and director of the play, said arena staging in the Union ballroom will
Dr. Dixon to Talk in Lindley

be more frequent if students like it. Joan Leonhart, education sophomore, and Dee Ann Price, fine arts sophomore, will appear as Eskimo girls in the olav. They'll do a takeoff on the hulu, supposedly taught them by a veteran stationed in the South Seas before his transfer to Labrador, scene of the comedy. Miss Shirley Hughes, instructor in physical education, was the choreographer.
Since in arena staging there are no walls or no backdrop, suggestions of the setting must be given through the furniture. In this play a set of antlers lies on a table to indicate a hunting lodge rather than to be hanging on a wall.
"I think the play illustrates that through imagination and cooperation all Student Union facilities can be used, even though they weren't designed for this particular thing," Mr. Burge said.

Enrolling Streamlined By New Procedures
By MARY BETZ
Plans for improved enrollment methods—with regard to comfort, convenience, and efficiency were announced today by George B. Smith, Dean of the University.
Actual enrollment will be centered in the Union, instead of in Robinson gymnasium and several other buildings as it has been in the past, Dean Smith said.
A combined class schedule for all schools and common enrollment cards will be used, instead of having a different schedule and types of cards put out by each school.
Previously each school had its own pen and place of enrollment, thus creating confusion because there was no central clearing-house for courses offered in several schools. An intra-enrollment telephone system now will notify different departments of class close-outs and other matters. The Union
The mechanical details of enrollment will be centered in the registrar's office, leaving the offices of the deans of schools more time for advice and counseling of students, the dean said.
An all-University "pen" will be located on the wide area of the balcony. Large departments will have their own scribes' rooms—English, mathematics, and ROTC in room 306 A, B, and C; Engineering in room 305 A and B.
"The new enrollment plan will be tested during summer school enrollment and improved, if it needs to be, for the fall enrollment," he said.
Registration will be the first time-saver, he said. A student may pick up his registration cards anytime the week before enrollment at the registrar's office, take them home, and fill them out at his leisure.
Law, pharmacy, medicine, and engineering students will go to the third floor, while others will go to the second. Enrollment areas will be: Fine Arts, Jayhawk room; Education, under the balcony; Business, north end of the ballroom; College, south three-fourths of the ballroom; Journalism, east of Business, and Graduate, east of Education.
Fees will be paid at the bursar's desk in the old main lounge. College students then will use the side stairs to the ballroom, and other students will use the back stairs.
Enrollment necessarily will be by the letter system as in the past. All students will enter the Union at the entrance to the new main lounge. There will be two lines—one for students who have filled out their registration cards, and one for those who haven't.
Law, Pine room; Pharmacy and Medicine, English room, and Engineering, Kansas room.

JAMES WOLFE
University Names Pianist as Artist with Outstanding Future
'53 Money Troubles —
James Wolfe, guest pianist, has been chosen by the University as the young American artist who is destined for an outstanding career in music. ___
This selection is held in connection with the annual music festival to be held here May 3-10. The young artist is presented to the public at a concert.
Mr. Wolfe will present his recital at 8 p.m. Tuesday in Strong auditorium.
Other young artists presented in past years on this annual program include Mimi Benzell, Frances Magnes, Sidney Foster, and Seymour Lipkin.
Received as a pianist of "exceptional interpretative powers" in his New York concert debut in Town Hall last December, Mr. Wolfe confirmed his growing reputation as one of America's finest pianists.
During the summer of 1951, Mr. Wolfe flew to South America for a series of concerts and radio broadcasts in and around Rio de Janeiro. He also spoke on American composers and the development of the American idiom in their works.
In 1949, Mr. Wolfe was commissioned to write the musical score for the soon-to-be-released film "Father Damien," a story of the founding of Hawaii's leper colony.
ASC Refuses to Aid Seniors
The All Student Council last night refused to appropriate $330 to cover the deficit incurred by the Class of '53 in the Senior Ring dance. This cut the grant to $130 instead.

cored senior classes in paris.
The ASC didn't hesitate to give $674 one year and $500 another year to senior classes, he said.
Nutton also referred to a "promise" which he said Class of "53 treasurer Patricia Lloyd, college senior, had received from the ASC treasurer to the effect that the Council would
reserve $500 this year to help the senior class.
Dana Anderson, ASC treasurer,
said the seniors wouldn't need help
if they had managed their funds
more carefully.
For the Senior Ring dance, 170 tickets were sold, 200 were turned in, and 234 were lost, he said. The concession stand at the dance also lost five dollars, he said.
Nulton said the financial failure of the dance could largely be charged to the fact that the Army ROTC held a dance the same night, despite an ASC statute forbidding two large dances the same night.

The appointment of Tom Van Bebber, first year law student, failed to get the required two-thirds vote of the ASC. Letty Lemon, college sophomore, was approved to serve the final year in the term of Pat Gardenhire, journalism senior, who recently resigned as a justice.
Later he conducted the recording session in Hollywood.
Mr. Wolfe was born in Omaha, Neb., and received his early music education there. A scholarship from the Omaha World-Herald enabled him to attend the University of Michigan at Ann Arbor, where he received his Bachelor of Music degree.
His appearance at the Phillips Gallery in Washington, D.C., brought the following words from the critic Paul Hume, in the Washington Post: "He is a master of the essentials of music—an artist at every point."
Students Picked To Lead Cheers
Cheerleaders and alternates for next year were chosen by a special committee in Robinson gymnasium Monday night.
New cheerleaders will be Phillip Stiles, Dick Myers, and Betty Lou Watson, all college freshmen.
Reappointed by the committee after leading yells last year were Jack Byrd, business junior; Myron McClenny, college junior; Sidonie Brown and Nancy Glychrist, education juniors; Mary Gayle Loveless, fine arts junior, and Sandra Puliver, college sophomore. Byrd was elected head cheerleader by the group.
Chosen as alternates were Doug Barling engineering sophomore; Mike Getto, engineering freshman; Dan Barron, college sophomore; Sally Lindemuth, college freshman; Alberta Johnson, college sophomore, and Patricia Pierson, college freshman.
Tryouts for positions were held after a week of "cheerleading school" in which instruction to novices was given by former cheerleaders.
Still to be chosen is the KuKu pep club delegate, which will bring the total cheerleading force to five men and five women.
