STUDENT NEWS PAPER
Chamber Music Concert To Be At 8 Tonight
The fourth concert of the Music Week series at the University will feature five faculty members and an advanced student in an evening of chamber music.
The program will be held tonight at 10 a.m.
The Public is invited to the concert.
The University string quartet will play the Schubert A-minor Quartet. The personnel of the ensemble includes Raymond Cerf, violin; Waldemar Geltch, second violin; Mrs. Karel Blaas, viola, and Raymond Stuhl, cello.
A rarely-heard work, Serenade in D major (Beethoven), will complete the program. It is written for an unusual combination of instruments (violin, viola, and flute) and will be performed by Professor Cerf, Mrs. Blaas, and Gene Johnson, advanced student.
The trio will play the Haydn Trio in G major, which contains the well-known "Gypsy Rondo."
The University trio, which has been heard in numerous concerts throughout the Middle West this year, will make its first local appearance. The members of the trio are Professor Cerf, violin; Professor Stuhl, cello, and Mrs. Alberta Stuhl, piano.
What is believed to be the largest private collection of vertebrates in Kansas has been given the University Museum of Natural History, Dr. Rollin H. Baker, acting director, announced.
the rumor however didn't take into account that the bell was a "Mr. Five-by-Five" and wasn't quite so tall as broad. Not without considerable difficulty the bell was put on its side on a cradle and sild through the doorway.
The bell will first be played at dedication ceremonies Sunday, May 27.
Specimens Given KU
For nearly a year a whispering campaign said the doors of the University Memorial campanile had been built too narrow for the largest bell of the carillon. The "Olin Templein" bell weighing nearly 7 tons indeed had a broader base than the door width.
How a bell 7 feet and 2 inches in diameter can be put through a door 6 feet 6 inches wide has been answered.
The collection, which was classified according to scientific procedures, was made by the late Dr Glenn C. Rinker, a dentist of Hamilton, who died last fall. A son, George C. Rinker, '46, now assistant professor of zoology at the University of Michigan, made the gift.
The late Dr. Rinker, biologist by avocation, assembled 2,014 specimens of mammals, 30 specimens of birds, and 15 specimens of reptiles. Many times in recent years he had assisted K.U. personnel on research problems.
Although an arbitrary value of $4,000 has been assigned the collection, Dr. Baker said it would probably cost considerably more to duplicate, if such were even possible.
7-Foot Bell Fits A 6-Foot Door
Art Museum Has Rare Flemish Work
A California collector has lent a picture by the 15th century Flemish painter, Gerard David, to the K.U. Art museum. The subject is the Lamentation Over the Body of Christ. John Maxon, director of the Art Museum, said the picture appears to be a preliminary version of the completed panel in the National Gallery in Washington, D.C. He said this is the first time a Flemish picture of such age and rarity has been shown in Kansas. It will be on display during May.
Nurses To Kansas City
Seventeen nursing students will leave for Kansas City next month to study during the summer session at the Kansas City Medical Center in the department of nursing. They will return to the University next fall to complete required courses in the department. In the spring of 1952 these students will study again at the Medical Center for a period of 28 months after which they will be eligible for a B.S. degree in nursing from the School of Medicine.
The students who will go to Kansas City are Carolyn Barndt, Retha Carawell, Georgia Lee Durking, Shirley Hillyer, Marian Hoecker, Jean Johnston, Dolores Kelley, Barbara McCrystal, Alice Milligan, Judith Scott, Josephine Van Petten, Jan Williams, and Jeanne Willis, sophomores, Anne Beelman, Mary Hook, Doris Kendall, and Jane Ramsev. iuniors.
The juniors have completed the required courses at the University and will not have to return next fall. They will remain in Kansas City to complete training there.
Student To Judge Twirling
William W. Sears, graduate student in music education, will judge twirling in a high school music festival in Enid, Okla., today and Thursday.
He will also do twirling performances each night for the festival.
AFROTC Expansion Will Double ROTC Deferments
KFKU Presents Special Music
KFKU. University radio station is presenting a series of special Music Week broadcasts.
On Friday the program will be the regular "Opera Voices to Remember," planned and narrated by Richard Beahm, special student in the School of Fine Arts and staff member of KFKU. Mr. Beahm will offer highlights from "Fledermaus," with artists Patrice Munsel, Rise Stevens, James Melton, Jan Peerce, and conductor Fritz Reiner.
At 7 p.m. today the University Little Symphony orchestra directed by Dean Thomas Gorton of the School of Fine Arts, will play. The program will range from the classical works of Bach and Handel to the contemporary compositions of Honneger and Samuel Barber.
Music week from KFKU will close Sunday with an hour transcribed broadcast, from 3 to 4 p.m. of the Gala concert, presented in Hoch auditorium the previous Sunday.
All Enjoy Senior Day Except Abused Donkeys
The University Symphony orchestra began the series with a performance of Aaron Copland's Appalachian Suite Tuesday.
Wichita Falls, Texas (U.P.)—Barring heavy rains, combines will probably begin reaping the first of the nation's 1951 wheat crop in Wichita county next week, several crop experts predicted today.
A 7 p.m. Thursday, KFKU will present by transcription the School of Fine Arts Faculty String quartet, composed of Raymond Cerf, first violin; Waldemar Geltch, second violin; Karel Blaas, viola; and Raymond Stuhl, cello.
Wheat Harvest Starts Soon
It was a tough day for the donkeys Tuesday. They were cussed pulled, ridden, beat, and generally manhandled during the senior class day activities.
Despite the best efforts of animal, though, man's brain triumphed. The game was played in fine style, the seniors winning over sweating faculty members, 6 to $4 \frac{1}{2}$. The half-point came when someone inadvertently kicked the ball. That's illegal. It was also pointed out by the referee that it is illegal to "hit, push, or otherwise harm any player or his donkey."
The parade was probably the low point of the day—from the donkeys' point of view. They were forced to wear everything from tight-fitting jeans to red silk ribbons.
After the polo game, there was a futile attempt to suspend a dummy of the typical law student in a tree over Potter lake. This was because the lawyers refused to compete in a tug-of-war. At any rate, the fish line used to hoist the dummy broke, and the act fell flat.
But revenge was sweet when the polo game got underway. The donkeys not only refused to made asses of—they were down-right obstinate when it came to chasing after the ball. Instead, they spent their time meandering around the picket-fenced arena at will. That is, what time they weren't trying to brush a rider off against a goal post, bucking, or steering clear of the electric prods.
Beneke played many of the old Glen Miller renditions such as "String of Pearls," and "Chattanooga Choo-Choo." During intermission the Jay James passed among the dancers taking contributions for the "Ronnie Ewert Scholarship fund." Beneke and the Jay James posed for a picture on stage. As the girls left the stage, the male vocalist went into a slight fit of hysterics and was unable to sing "Night and Day" without giggling. This left the audience puzzled.
Eight hundred and forty-four persons and two dogs attended the Junior-Senior dance in Hoch auditorium Tuesday night. It could not be ascertained whether or not the dogs came together or came stag to hear Tex Beneke and his orchestra
Hoch was unusually warm, so many of the dancers listened from outside, while the men selling Coke amassed a small fortune.
Some of the dancers estimated the crowd at 1,500. The business office said 600 tickets were sold, but the tickets sold in organized houses had not been turned in.
An expansion of the University Air Force R.O.T.C. program will nearly double the number of students who can get deferred at the University to finish school through enrollment in the A.F. R.O.T.C.
The expanded program, effective for the 1951-52 school year, will also nearly double course offerings and student personnel.
Church Center Plans Set
Final plans for the new student center were accepted by the Wesley Foundation Board of trustees at its meeting Monday.
The architects will now make final specifications in preparation to advertise for bids to construct the new center. It is hoped by the board members that actual construction can be started some time this summer.
A state-wide fund raising campaign will be conducted by Cumerford Inc. of Kansas City to raise money in addition to the funds already available to cover the construction costs.
The board also reappointed Dr. Edwin Price and Miss Helener Currier as director and assistant director respectively.
Burton W. Marvin, dean of the William Allen White School of Journalism and Public Information, H. B. Latimer, professor of anatomy, and E. F. Engel, professor of German are the faculty representatives of the Wesley Foundation board of trustees.
Poly Sci Picnic Set For Friday
The annual political science department picnic will be held Friday at Holcom's grove. Transportation will be provided from the back of Strong hall at 4 p.m.
Meal tickets are 75 cents. Liquid refreshments will be extra. Tickets must be ordered in advance at the bureau of government research or at the political science office in 204 Strong.
Junior Receives Pan-Hellenic Grant
Patricia Kennedy, education junior, has been awarded the $130 Panhellenic scholarship. She was chosen on the basis of scholarship, citizenship on the campus, and financial need.
A special committee which included Miss Margaret Habein, dean of women, and Miss Martha Peterson, assistant dean of women, chose the applicants with the best qualifications and submitted them to the Pan-hellenic council, which chose the recipient without knowledge of the name of the applicant.
Miss Kennedy was elected to Mortar Board this spring. She is a member of the Future Business Leaders of America, the Jay Janes, and the Newman club.
The award is the first annual award of its kind to be given by the Pan-hellenic council. Any woman undergraduate student will be eligible for it.
Gaston To Speak Thursday At Psychiatry Meeting
Dr. E. Thayer Gaston, chairman of the music education department, will be a speaker and roundtable discussant Thursday at the national meeting of the American Psychiatric association in Cincinnati. His subject will be research in functional music and music in therapy.
K. U. to provide 205 second lieutenants for the Air Force reserve each year. That will require about 1200 air science students in the four classes when the program is in full operation, according to Lt. Col. Lynn R. Moore, professor of air science
The Air Force now has deferment agreements with 568 students—all of the senior, junior and sophomore classes and 85 per cent of the freshmen. Colonel Moore believes the total should be above a thousand next fall.
Courses in communications and flight operations will be offered in addition to the present courses in logistics and armament. The training in armament is technical and open only to students in engineering. The courses in administration and flight operations are non-technical and open to any cadet.
The flight operations course is the most desirable for those who eventually plan to take pilot training.
The normal Air Force R.O.T.C. course is four years, including a six-week summer camp between the junior and senior years. However, some men may enter the program above the freshman level, Colonel Moore said.
Any veteran or a student who has had the equivalent of basic training at a military school may begin with the advanced course, which is at the junior year level. Those with three years of high school R.O.T.C. may start at the second-year or sophomore level in the basic course.
Advanced course students are paid 90 cents a day subsistence. Uniforms and military texts are furnished all four years.
R. O.T.C. students earn one hour of academic credit a semester for the basic course. Those in the advanced course earn three credit hours a semester. The credits count toward any bachelor degree offered at K.U., Colonel Moore said.
"The goal of having about 450 students in the advanced course each year, with each receiving about $250 a year subsistence, in effect means the creation of $110,000 a year in scholarships," Colonel Moore said.
The upper 10 per cent in each graduating class may apply for regular commissions in the Air Force.
Men with deferment stipulations agree to serve two years on active duty after they have been graduated and commissioned.
Interested men should inquire at the Air Science office, 108 Military Science building.
The freshman quota is about halffilled. There are some vacancies at the junior level, and a veteran or military school student can be accepted if he meets physical and academic requirements.
