Miss Thomas Wins Recital Praise
By ANN ALLEN
Betty Thomas' sweet mezzo-so-prano voice won enthusiastic applause from the audience in her senior recital Monday evening in Frank Strong auditorium.
Miss Thomas sang most of the program with a light, sweet voice that has few defects, but is not outstanding. However, in three selections her more forceful and unusual qualities of volume and power were brought out.
"La Valse Des Feuilles" (Faure) brought out the warmth and fullness of Miss Thomas' voice in pleasant contrast to the lack of feeling evident in many of the songs she sang during her recital.
An unusual arrangement of "Cookies and Mussels," an old Irish folk song, required exceptional breath control to produce the ghostly effect of Molly Malone fish-cry. The cry as sung by Miss Thomas was eerie, beautiful, and convincing.
"O Mio Fernando," the aria from "La Favorita" (Donizetti) was well received by the audience. Miss Thomas reached all the high notes in a strong and clear tone.

Vets Cautioned On Medical Aid
The Veterans administration cannot pay for out-patient medical treatment by private physicians unless the injury or illness is service-connected and then only if prior authorization is obtained from the V.A., Sherwin L. Derby of the Lawrence V.A. office said today.
Derby pointed out that many veterans are receiving such care without proper authorization in the mistaken belief that the V.A. will pay the bill.
Such veterans are advised to contact the V.A. personally or have their doctor obtain permission from the chief medical officer of the appropriate V.A. regional office before beginning treatment.
Application for authorization should include a veteran's claim number and the nature of disability for which treatment is needed. In case of emergency treatment for service-connected disabilities, prior authorization is not required, but the treatment must be reported to the V.A. within 15 days to assure payments by the agency.
Cannon Studies Clay Products
The bureau of business research is studying market possibilities of ceramic products. John Cannon, economics instructor, will direct the study. Paul Malone, director of the bureau, said the Kansas Industrial Development commission has given $2500 to finance the research.
Mr. Cannon said the project will take all summer to complete. He will be assisted by R. G. Hardy of the Spencer Chemical company of Kansas in the survey of marketing ceramics.
Dinnerware, pottery, building materials, heat resistant materials, and electrical insulation are ceramic products that can be made from clay.
