KU Tops Santa Clara To Advance To Finals
In case of bad weather, the bus and team will go directly to Hoch auditorium where the rally will be held.
Kansas and St. John's of Brooklyn meet in the finals of the NCAA tournament tonight for the national championship and the right to play Southwest Missouri's NAIB champions in Kansas City's Olympic trials Saturday night.
Gov. Edward F. Arm, Lt. Gov. Fred Hall, or Secretary of State Paul R. Shanahan will represent the state of Kansas at the rally. Life magazine and Fox-Movietone news may cover the event.
A telegram was sent to Pres. James A. McCain and the Kansas State student body today. Here is the message:
"Many thanks for your superlative support of our Jayhawks during the NCAA playoffs. We extend invitations to you and your student body to welcome home our basketball team. Signed, KU student body."
Plans for the rally are directed by Duggan Scanlan, college senior, and William Landess, business junior, who originated the idea; Dr. Woodruff; Bus Zook, executive secretary of the Chamber of Commerce; James Wigglesworth, city manager; James Logan, college senior and All Student council president; Paul Arrowwood, business senior and president of Student Union activities, and Robert Nelson, journalism junior who is handling publicity.
It is planned to have an extension of closing hours if needed to allow women to attend the rally.
The bus will be met at the south end of the Kaw river bridge at Sixth and Massachusetts streets. The parade, which is to be escorted by highway patrol troopers and flanked by Jay James and Kuku's, will proceed down Massachusetts street to South park, 12th and Masachuets streets.
Bill Wilson, engineering junior will be discussion leader. All meetings are open to students and faculty.
A discussion on the honor system will be continued today when the campus affairs committee meets at 7:15 p.m. in 222 Strong hall.
A bonefire to be built by the Jay
Janes and KuKu club, campus pep
organizations, will be lit to provide
light while the cheerleaders lead
yells. Lovellette and Coach Allen
will speak.
Honor System To Be Discussed
The honor system was discussed when the group met two weeks ago. It was decided at the end of that meeting to hold the topic over for another discussion.
Following the firetruck in covertibles will be Chancellor Franklin D. Murphy, Coach F. C. "Phog" Allen, Dick Harp, assistant coach, Dean Nesmith, trainer, and Wayne Louderback, student manager.
Welcome Rally Planned For Returning Team
The powerful Jayhawkers continued their winning ways with a comparatively easy-won victory
? from Santa Clara's Broncos 74-55
All-American Clyde Lovellette will be made an honorary fire chief according to the plans, and the other members of the team will be honorary firemen. Team members will ride on the firetruck as Lovellette drives at the head of the parade.
Plans for a parade and bonfires rally were approved by Dr. Lawrence C. Woodruff, dean of men, as the welcoming rally for Kansas basketball team grew to greater proportions.
The rally time and date depends on Kansas' outcome in the NCAA finals in Seattle.
LISTENING TO THE GAME BROADCAST—Members of the Sigma Chi fraternity were among the thousands who stayed up late last night to listen to the KU-Santa Clara game broadcast from Seattle. Six members and their housemother, Mrs. Florence Whyte, are shown during a tense moment in the early stages of the game. The Sigma Chi's had a personal interest in the game—Clyde Lovellette, a fraternity brother, who scored 33 points in KU's 74-55 triumph in the semi-finals of the NCAA tourney—Kansan photo by Jim Murray.

St. John's kept the NCAA journey-upsets intact with a 61-59 hard-fought win from highly favored Illinois.
Spectacular defensive play was the highlight of both tourney games. Santa Clara could never get by the hard pressing shifting man-for-man defense the Jayhawkers have used so effectively in previous games.
The Illini sucumbed to the superior rebounding game of the Redmen from Brooklyn.
St. John's Center Bob Zawoluk scored 26 points for the Redmen, but still was second to Clyde Lovellette who turned in a 33-point show for the Jayhawkers.
The win gave KU a bid to the
Olympic trials in either Kansas City or New York, Saturday. Should the Jayhawkers win from St. John's tonight, they'll face Southwest Missouri State in Kansas City.
Should they lose, they'll meet La-Salle's NT champs in New York. Also playing at Kansas City Saturday will be Cab Renick's Phillips 66 Oilers and the Fiber McGee and Molly team, both of the AAU.
The Caterpillar Diesels of Peoria plays the Air Force All Stars in the AAU contest in New York Saturday.
Kansas was never threatened by Santa Clara. They took an early first period lead and held it all the way, lengthening it as they rolled along.
Measle Case Threatens Comic Skit In Recital
A comic skit in the combined Men's and Women's Glee clubs recital may have to be eliminated from the program because of a case of measles, according to Joseph F. Wilkins, director of the Men's Glee club.
The recital will be at 8 p.m. today in Hoch auditorium.
The program is divided into six parts.
William Krehbiel, engineering sophomore who was to have one of the major parts in the skit, was hospit- led the measles Tuesday night. The case occurred too late to get a replacement for the skit, Mr. Wilkins said.
Part I will feature the combined glee clubs singing the chorus from the prologue to "Mefistofele" (Boito). The Women's Glee club will sing "The Merry Huntsman" and "The Chapel" (Schumann) and "The Bridegroom" (Brahms) in Part II.
With words and music by Jack Laffer '39, the composer of "Onward Spirit of Kansas," the skit., "The Serenaders," features the voices of Faustin Robles, business senior; Edward House, engineering senior; Jack Stewart, graduate student; Kent Bowden, engineering sophomore, and Krehbiel. Nancy Hindman, fine arts junior, is the accompanist.
"There is a chance that Krehbiel will be over the danger point and will be able to perform in the skit," he added. "If he is well enough to perform, the skilt will be presented as scheduled." Mr. Wilkins said.
The Men's Glee club will sing
"The Creation" (Richter). "Steal Away" arranged by Bartholomew and "John Peel" arranged by Gibb in Part III.
Part IV will include "Loafer," "Don't Leave Me," "Only Tell Me" and "Teasing Song" (Bartok) to be sung by the Women's Glee club.
The Men's Glee club will sing "Drinking Song" (Romberg), "Railroad Chant" (Scott) and "The Serenaders," if possible, in Part V. Two solos in the "Railroad Chant" will be taken by Robles and Stewart.
Part VI will feature "Down the Wind" (Scott) sung by the combined glee clubs.

Physical Education Not Limited-Scott
Physical education is a part of general education, Dr. Harry A. Scott, professor of health and physical education at Columbia university, told education students Tuesday at a convocation in Fraser theater.
"Physical education is a way of education, a method of education, just as surely as any other area of education," Dr. Scott said.
"Physical education needs more literature. Production of literature is one of the avenues or methods of development available in education." Dr. Scott said.
"All students, not just a selected few, should participate and benefit from physical education," Dr. Scott stated.
"Health is an extreme variable, for there is a wide range of normalcy among individuals," he explained.
All learning has a physical basis, for the original method of education was physical education, Dr. Scott said. He explained that physical education does not exist for physical fitness alone, but for total fitness.
Evaluation of health is a continuous process, for evaluation always results in change, he added.
Barter Theater
To Present Shakespeare Play Tonight
"The Merchant of Venice," a Shakespearean comedy will be presented in Fraser theater at 8 p.m. today by the Barter theater of Virginia.
Woodrow Romoff and Patricia O'Connell or Susan Willis will play the featured roles of Shylock and Portia. Two conflicting programs were sent out, one naming Patricia O'Connell as Portia and the other naming Susan Willis.

spearean women's roles.
Critics say in cutting the play from a five hour production to one of half that time, Director Margaret Perry has emphasized its romance and comedy, and allowed Mr. Romoff to give an interpretation of Shylock which is as personal as it is tragic. His characterization as a pitable man, cast off and despised, is a study in human emotion.
Critics say Patricia O'Connan proves herself to be a young woman of good looks and unusual acting ability.
Critics say Miss Willis has the part that is most demanding of tal-

Other featured players in this production are Frank Lowe as the jester, Hugh Mosher as Antonio, Michael Lewis as both the Prince of Arragon and a clerk of the court, and Clayton Corzatte as Bassanio. Mr. Lewis is the son of Dorothy Thompson and the late Sinclair Lewis.
