2 Excellent Portrayals Given By Lab Theater
By RICHARD HUNTER
Two finely polished performances that could probably not have been done better in a professional theater, were given Tuesday before an appreciative audience in the Little theater of Green hall.
The director of the Laboratory theater Thomas Shay, chose two plays that have opposite moods; "Overruled," a flashy, fast moving comedy on human frailties, by George B. Shaw; and "The Intruder" by Maurice Maeterlinck, a tense symbolic melodrama. The complete change in mood, from Shaw to Maeterlinck, made an evening of pure entertainment.
In the comedy, directed by Allen Crafton, professor of drama. William Conboy, instructor of speech, gave such a faithful performance as Mr. Gregory Lunn, a stodgy English gentleman who is wildly in love with another man's wife, that the audience was laughing from the moment he came on stage.
Edith Lessenden, graduate student, gave an expert portrayal of Mrs. Juno. Lunn's wife is played by Mrs. Ruby Motta, assistant instructor in speech. Mrs. Motta was superb in the scene where Mrs. Lunn makes ardent love to the morally confused Sibthorpe Juno, who said, "I may be wrong, but I'm doing it in a proper and acceptable manner." William Solller, graduate student, who played Juno, did an excellent characterization.

a performance that even "The Inner Sanctum" would be proud of was given by the cast in "The Intruder." Staged readings are usually hard to make entertaining, but co-directors Wilson O'Connell, College senior, and Mary Lou Lane, education senior, did a commendable job.
Although the entire cast gave a spotless performance, O'Connell as the blind grandfather and Nancy Morsbach, College freshman, as Ursula, set a mood that kept the audience on the edge of its seats.
Rock Chalk Revue Soon
Skirts for the second annual "Rock Chalk Revue" are coming along well, said Dick Klassen, publicity chairman. Nearly all organized houses are planning to compete, he said.
"Wednesday, Dec. 13, is the deadline for submitting scripts." Klassen said. "They should be about 15 minutes in length and should depict some humorous side of college life. All work on a script must be done by members of the house submitting it."
On March 9 and 10 the eight best scripts will be dramatized in Hoch auditorium by member of the houses submitting them, and the top four, two from men's and two from women's houses, will be selected as winners and will be awarded trophies.
Complete rules for the contest are available in the Y.M.C.A. office in the Union.
Others in the cast are; Mark Gilman, and Darwin Sharp. College freshmen; John Welsh, College junior; Anne Lehman, College sophomore; and Mary Loveless, fine arts freshman.
The plays will be given again to night through Friday.
IFC Plans Yule Party
Plans for a Christmas party for the underprivileged children of Lawrence were discussed at the Inter-Fraternity council Monday night in the Union ballroom.
John B. Keller, business junior, was appointed chairman of the rush committee.
Two subjects were considered which had been taken to member fraternities for consideration by LF.-C. representatives. The first was the possibility of establishing a junior Inter-fraternity council for freshmen. On the second question the council followed the lead of the sororites and voted not to send flowers and gifts to party chaperons.
Fine Arts Recital Set For Thursday
Robert Wynne and Curtis Glover, seniors, and a choral ensemble will give a fine arts student recital at 3 p.m. Thursday in the auditorium of Strong hall.
Wynne, a pianist, will play "Overture in the French manner" by Bach, and Glover, baritone, will sing Schubert's "Erkloeenig." The choral ensemble will sing a group of early American and temperance songs. The ensemble will be directed by Clayton Krebhbl, director of the Women's Glee club.
Colonel To Speak To Pershing Rifles
Lt. Col. Lynn R. Moore, professor of air science and tactics, will be guest speaker at the Pershing Ridge club banquet Friday.
The banquet, to be held in the Hawk's Nest of the Union, will be before the Military Ball. Sixty people, including faculty members, club members and their dates, are expected to attend.
Acheson Will Speak Tonight On Red Crisis
Appendix Operation Isn't All
Washington, Nov. 29—(U.P.)-Secretary of state Dean Acheson will deliver a major foreign policy address to the nation tonight on the grave Communist China crisis.
Swanton, VI. —(U,β)—Ten-year-old Danny Brunette was about to be discharged from the hospital after an appendix operation but he didn't want to go. So he swallowed a quarter his mother had given him for ice cream and had to stay a while.
Mr. Acheson had planned to deliver an address in Cleveland tonight before the Federal Council of Churches of Christ in America. But the Communist Chinese intervention in Korea—branded aggression by the state department—changed his mind.
grave Commissar
Mr. Acheson will speak from his state department office over the American Broadcasting Company, Columbia Broadcasting system, and Mutual networks at 8:00 p.m.
State department officials said Mr. Acheson plans to outline the current situation in Korea, strategy to meet the serious threat posed by Chinese Communist intervention, and to appeal for unity of the free world to meet the threat.
It also was reported that some study is being given toward possible new moves against the Chinese Communists outside the military field. Study was understood to be under way on invoking possible economic and diplomatic sanctions against the Chinese Reds.
Any such decisions, if they are to have force, would have to be worked out with other friendly nations who are in a position to bring pressure against the Chinese Reds in the economic and diplomatic field.
The United States admittedly is in a weak position because it has practically no trade with Red China and does not recognize the Chinese Communist regime.
Thus the burden of bringing pressure against the Reds would fall more to other nations, such as Britain, who recognized the Red regime and who have better trade relations with Red China.

Dr. Kollmorgen Aided Water Resources Board

Dr. Walter M. Kolmorgen, chairman of the department of geography, returned to the office meeting in conversation D. C., where he served as a consultant to the President's Water Resources commission.

of the University. He will be speaking at the third meeting of the Northeast Kansas Guidance association. The meeting is open to anyone interested in guidance services.
Counselors in the Guidance bureau are promoting the activities of the association. Past meetings have been attended by University students and high school counselors.

activities of various federal agencies in water control projects as pointed out in the Hoover report.
the agencies largely responsible for this work are the Bureau of Reclamation the Corps of Engineers of the U.S. army, and various divisions of the Department of Agriculture.
The commission appointed a number of technicians to prepare reports on 12 selected river basins of water sheds. Dr. Kollmorgon was called to Washington to edit the material on several of the water sheds and to comment on the policies that have been formulated.
Dr. Kollmorgen spent most of his time working on the reports covering the Rio Grande, Tennessee river, Colorado river, and the Missouri river basins.
The reports contain proposals for a number of dams to be built over a long period of time. Dikes are also being built along the Missouri as far as Sioux City, Iowa, and the channel will also be deepened to 9 feet up to that city to promote water navigation.
The question obviously arises why one group receives benefits without cost while the other group is required to reimburse the government. The commission recommends that this difference either be reconciled or removed.
On the basis of the reports President Truman is expected to ask congress for legislation to eliminate the needless overlapping. He is also expected to request the establishment of a consistent policy in regard to repayment for services rendered by government agencies.
