KU Professor's Record Collection Includes Almost 200 By Enrico Caruso
A University record collector, James E. Seaver, owes almost 200 well-known Caruso recordings.
Mr. Seaver, an assistant professor of history, has a collection of several thousand records. Most are operatic pieces, including all of the Beethoven and Schubert symphonies.
Included in his collection are over 190 records by the late Enrico Caruso. Among them are Caruso's first recording on a cylinder made in 1899, and his last made in 1920.
Record collecting has become a life-long hobby for Mr. Seaver. He started when he was 12.
Record collecting, as with stamps and coins, is becoming a popular hobby. Probably the largest collection in the world is owned by Leo Riemans in Holland, Mr. Sea-
ver said. Mr. Riemans has almost 100,000 records.
likes best his records of Soprano likes best his records for Soprano Celestina Bonnsegna of Italy. She has the highest and lowest vocal register of any operatic soprano. He also favors Fernando De Lucia, Italian tenor who created the role of Pagliacchi, Mr. Seaver said.
He Didn't Think To Ask
Memphis, Tenn. - (U.P.)—Bernard L. Cohn bought a batch of stock in the 1920's. After the 1929 market collapse he thought it was value-less. He forgot it until a tracer firm asked him to dig out the stock certificates. The "worthless" paper proved to be worth about $500 or $600.

A photographica exhibition illustrating a lesson in sculpture is being presented by the department of design, third floor of Strong hall. The exhibition will continue through Tuesday, Nov. 22.
Photographic Display Shown In Strong Hall
The picture shows William Zorach, noted American sculptor, demonstrating the basic steps in modeling clay and casting. Twenty photographic panels mounted on aluminium make up the display.
The sculpture lesson is divided into three sections. The first panels are devoted to the creation of a figure in clay. Problems which confront the sculptor at this stage are explained. The second section is concerned with making the mould.
The third section describes the final step of casting. After completing this step the mould is chipped off revealing the statue, giving a plaster replica of the original clay figure.
The exhibition is based on a story which appeared in Life magazine. However, material has been added to the original display.
