Kirsch Paintings Now on Display In Art Museum
An exhibition of watercolors, gouaches, and watercolor monotypes by Dwight Kirsch, chairman of the department of fine arts at the University of Nebraska, will be shown at Spooner-Thayer Museum during the month of June.
Mr. Kirsch was born in Pawnee county, Neb., in 1899. After he was graduated from the University of Nebraska, he studied art with the Art Student's league of New York City and worked for five years in New York and Los Angeles. He has taught art at the University of Nebraska since 1924. Although Mr Kirsch has done many different types of art work, he especially enjoys doing paintings in watercolor, oil or tempera, and photographs.
The Kirsch paintings have been represented widely in exhibitions of national scope including: Artists-for-Victory show, Metropolitan museum, New York City, 1942; Chicago Art institute watercolor and painting annuals; Philadelphia Watercolor society; San Francisco museum and Laguna beach shows in California.
Solo shows of Mr. Kirsch's works have been scheduled for 1945-46 in Topeka and Wichita. Tula expects a showing next winter.

Scoring the Softball Game
Sportorials
The Delta Tau-Duke's Mixture game yesterday had 10 scoreers, no less. Besides the two official scorers provided by the teams, seven women from Gordon Sabine's reporting class and the sports editor were frantically marking broken lines, wiggly lines, and straight lines around the imaginary diamonds on the score cards, trying to keep up with the hits, runs, putouts, flies, and errors.
The women called the game at the end of $4\frac{1}{2}$ innings when the rain began to sprinkle, and their stories turned in today agree, except for one, that the score of the game was 9-8 in favor of the Delt's. That one exception called the game a tie at 9-9.
Bringing together the cream of the track and field competition, the meet will be held in the Marquette Stadium, Milwaukee, Saturday, June 9.
Except for an occasional reference to "middle field," and an expression that Delta Tau won by one "point," the stories were surprisingly good. Cyclones at the Milwaukee Meet
Track Coach George Bretnall announced this week that three Cyclone cindermen, Bob Jones, Steve Dobbin and Mel Larsen, have been entered in the National Collegiate f track and field meet.
Bob Jones has not been beaten in the quarter-mile in outdoor competition and is the Big Six outdoor, quarter-mile champion. Dobbin was second in the Big Six outdoor half-mile and turned in a good performance against the Seahawks in the dual meet at Ames. Both of these men have been entered in the half-mile run.
Mel Larsen, broad jump artist, has been entered in that event at the National Collegiate. Larsen made his best jump, over 23 feet, in the dual meet against the Seahawks.

Track Squad Elects Robison Captain
Leroy Robison, a consistent winner in the weight events during the track season, was elected honorary captain by the members of the track and field squad at a meeting yesterday at Memorial stadium. The squad also posed for a track picture.
The honorary captain chosen at the end of the 1944 season was Bob Lillibridge, who was graduated from the V-12 unit here October 19, 1944, and was transferred to Cornell University.
Robison, a sophomore V-12 in engineering from Lawrence, has scored first in javelin, shot put, or discus in nearly all of the dual meets in the 1945 track season, placed in two events at the Drake relays, and took the only Jayhawk first in the Big Six championship meet at Lincoln, Neb. He also showed well in the high jump.
