A new art gallery has opened in Lawrence. It is called the 7 East 7th Gallery, after its location at 2 E. 7th St.
The gallery, is a cultural happening that is not aimed at art students but at promoting the art of local talent, which merits attention but is often neglected in favor of artists on the East and West sides.
The gallery is being promoted by three people—Murv Jacob, Garv Burge and Judy Riddle.
Jacob is a painter, silk screen artist and photographer, who originally came from Topeka. Burge, owns Media Graphics, advertising layouts, brochures and movies for commercial use.
Miss Riddle, from Lawrence,
helped with remodeling and helps
out with production of posters for
the gallery.
Jacob, seeking studio space,
asked Burge if he had extra room.
They started talking and
discovered that both of them
were waiting for Burge.
Burge provided the space, and Jacob furnished the capital.
Three hours after they met, which was only about a month ago, they were applying the first coat of paint to remodel the building so that it would be suitable for displays. They were able to have a show the first month so that it would pay the rent.
The three of them working 14 hours a day completed the gallery for the formal opening, and they visited people attended the opening which featured Robert Sidlow, landscape artist.
Sudlow, a University of Kansas professor of painting and sculpture, has shown his paintings recently at Kansas City's Nelson Art Gallery. Washburn and the Senate Office in St. Louis have opened
The next show, entitled "7 Kansas Printmakers at 7 East 7th
Gallery, will begin Dec. 12. It will exhibit lithography, silk screen prints and 'intaglios. After that will be an Inum show that will feature not only Hasselblad from Oklahoma and Arizona
A ceramics show and computer art show are planned for the future.
'Spoon River' to Bring Small Town Life to Stage
"Spoon River" is a portrait of small town life in 19th century America, and it recounts several generations of a community through a series of monologues, shaped and imprinted by the pattern of life in the imaginary town of Spoon River, III. It flows from the perspective of the dead.
As the former residents unfold the with the external and physical side of life through joy, sorrow, birth, death, failure, success, and misfortune.
There is no plot to the tale, but rather many related stories woven together to form a tapestry of human experience. The most interesting and charming examples are "River" as theatre "run parallel to the source of its uniqueness as literature, the concept of an
anothology," said Frank Kelly director of the production.
"For the theatre, it is necessary to make explicit some of the relationships and patterns which lie in the book of poems," he said.
The Experimental Theatre production will attempt to dramatize the ties of marriage, family, profession, and comedy. Students will use a system of vocal interpretation, by means of composition and movement to portray River Bottom's Snoon River are bonded together.
Aidman, in his adaptation has provided the groundplan for such an attempt. The theatre work, in revising the text, had to deter children from reading other, as well as what they knew about themselves and each other.

As the University of Kansas grows larger, it becomes increasingly difficult for the individual student to distinguish between the select 109 students, members of KU's four honor society societies, have distinguished themselves with various activities and academic excellence.
The youngest honorary organization is the sophomore women's group, CWENs. Before the group became a part of the national CWENs organization in 2015, they were under the name Jay Sisters.

The 40 active members were selected at the end of their fresh tenure, and were named president Ronni Ehrenberg, Prairie Village sophomore.
ONE DETERMNANT was scholarship. Each year a specific grade point was selected as a qualification, and written recommendations from freshman women and activities on campus, in the community and in living groups were also considered. Finally, active members sought recommendations from upperclass women and personnel.
Total membership cannot exceed 10 per cent of the total freshman women population.
Although the group can remain strictly honorary in nature, Miss Ehrenberg said "We wanted to be an active CWENS chapter, to know and understand other degrees of different background."
NEXT FEBRIARY the CWENS will participate in a "white consciousness program" designed to study black-white relations and history. Miss Elherrens said she also said that she's planted a food drive as a Christmas project for Ballard Center.
