97th Vespers One Of The Best Musicals Of Year
By NORMA HUNSINGER
The first all-musical vesper program of the year was presented in Hoch auditorium Sunday with the appearance of the six major music organizations of the University. It was the 97th in the series of all-musical vespers, and was one of the outstanding music programs offered so far this year.
The recital was opened by the University Symphony orchestra, directed by Prof. Russell Wiley. They played the first movement of "Symphony in B flat" by Chausson. The performance was notable for the extremely solid string section and the almost-professional control.
The Men's Glee club sang "May Day Carol" arranged by Deems Taylor, and "The Creation" by Willy Richtor. The group is directed by Prof. Joseph Wilkins. Although their pitch was bad at times, the men exhibited good balance and effective range of volume.
The faculty string ensemble, Waldemar Gutch, W. Thomas Marrocco, Vincent Bleeck, Raymond Stuhl, and Miss Marian Jersild, presented the Dvorak "Quintet, Op. 81." The full tone of the cello and the control of the piano made this piece expressive as well as technically outstanding.
Th Women's Glee club, directed by Miss Irene Peabody, sang "Valse Fathetique" by Arensky-Kramer and "Body and Soul" by Kramer-Barlow. The women also exhibited good balance.
"The A Cappella Choir presented "She is So Decar" by Praetorious, "The Lord's Prayer" and "Hear My Prayer" by Gretchaninoff. The choir, directed by Dean Swarthout was unusually expressive for a 110 voice group. The striking ending of "Hear My Prayer" was especially effective.
an adaptation of Bach's "Tocata and Fugue in D Minor" for organ was the selection of the symphonic band, directed by Professor Wiley. The number requires superior technical ability and control; the band's presentation was excellent in both respects.
The next all-musical vesper program will be given in December.
2 Students Pose For Camera Club

All future meetings of the Camera club will be held in the Wren building, Ted Crane, president, announced. They will feature such topics as movie projecting, cheesecake photography, candid and action shots, and photographic surrealism.

Pemberton Takes 'Harvey' To London To Visit The Queen, And The 'Oi Polloi'
Brock Pemberton is in England preparing for the first presentation there of his four-year Broadway hit "Harvey," the play about the invisible rabbit.
"Harvey" appeared at the University for four nights last spring. The cast was led by Mr. Pemberton, who played the lead role of Elwood P. Dowd. The proceeds, $1,100 went$\textcircled{4}$the Memorial fund.
Mrs. Frances Feist of the speech department played the part of Dowd's sister in the K.U. production. Pemberton liked her work and when Josephine Hull of the original company went on vacation, he called Mrs. Feist to New York to take her place.
An English production of the play has been planned for more than two years. Sir Field, Britain's leading comic actor, has been assigned the role created in this country by Frank Fay.
The British plans call for a provincial tryout, then a London opening early in January. Mary Coyle Chase, author of this Pulitzer prize play, also is in London.
Band Will March At Game Thursday
The University marching band will go to Columbia Thursday for the Missouri-Kansas game. They will combine with the University of Missouri band for a half-time ceremony.
As Thursday is Homecoming day at the University of Missouri, the bands will take part in the queen crowning ceremony at the half. The band will also present formations saluting both schools.
The band will leave at 5:30 Thursday morning. They will travel in three buses, and will return to Lawrence that night.
Get Yearbooks After Vacation
The first issue of the Jayhawker magazine will be available to students on Monday, Nov. 29.
"This issue, originally intended to be released last week, has been delayed at the printers due to a conflict with other contracts," said Bill Conboy, editor.
The second edition should be ready before the Christmas vacation. This will crowd the first two copies into a period of less than a month.
A high-speed recording strip chart potentiometer has been purchased for the mining and metallurgy department of the School of Engineering.

"The machine will record temperature rate changes as high as 400 degrees a second." Kenneth E. Rose, associate professor of mining and metallurgy, said. "It will give a continuous curve and will be used to determine the cooling rates and especially the quenching rates for hardening iron and other metals.
"It is an electronic device that operates on a vacuum control circuit," he said. "It will be used in research projects and regular courses."
The Union cafeteria will remain open throughout the Thanksgiving holiday for students remaining in Lawrence.

Marshall Home To Talk Policy With President
The Bus-(Adv.)
Washington. Nov. 22-(UP)—Secretary of State George C. Marshall returned home today by plane and was met personally by President Truman to begin momentous foreign policy discussions.
It was raining as the secretary's big plane touched down at national airport at 9:05 a.m. C.S.T. after a flight from Paris where he attended the United Nations General assembly meeting.
Also to be discussed will be the Berlin blockade and American participation in the North Atlantic Security alliance. Not the least of the subjects under discussion will be Marshall's own future in the cabinet. He has expressed a desire to retire, but the President reportedly wants him to stay.
Mr. Truman, tanned and rested from two weeks at Key West, Fla., returned to Washington by plane yesterday. He will also confer today with W. Averell Harriman, roving ambassador for the European Recovery program, and probably with James Forrestal, secretary of defense.
President Truman, who drove out to the airport to meet Marshall, was the first to greet the general.
The President and his secretary of state were ready to plunge immediately into discussions of the Berlin problem of what to do about China.
The books were recommended by a sub-committee headed by Joan Webster. Members are Wilbur Noble, Dale Spiegel, Mary Douglas, and Glenn Varenhorst. Faculty advisers are Ray B. West, associate professor of English, and L. R. Lind, associate professor of Latin.
The Union library has been enlarged by 150 titles.
As for the United Nations meeting, Marshall said that he thought a "great deal of understanding has resulted from what already has happened" at the Paris meeting.
The library has been combined with the music room to form a browsing room.
