Krueger Is Former University Student
The Kansas City Philharmonic Orchestra's concert Monday night may be of particular interest to students of the University because they can call Krueger their own. Born in Atchison, he received his master's degree from the University.
in his home town. He was where he was a pupil of the late Charles Sanford Skilton. To his teaching, Krueger attributes much of his success.
At the age of thirteen, Mr. Krueger was a church oragnist in his home town. He was given a fellowship at the University, where he was a pupil of the*
Before he was 20 years old, he entered a contest in which over five hundred persons participated, and won a position as organist in one of New York City's largest churches.
Was a Cellist
Mr. Krueger was not only an organist, but also a virtuoso on the cello. He toured Europe and South America as a cellist. Besides being an instrumentalist, he wanted to be a conductor, believing that only as a conductor could he achieve the fullest success that music had to offer.
His parents wanted him to study law. To please them, he studied law at the University of Heidelberg and of Vienna. He received his degree, then promptly returned to music. He studied with Arthur Nikisch, then Europe's foremost conductor. Of all his pupils, Nikisch predicted the most success for Mr Krueger.
Conducted Orchestras
He then conducted orchestras throughout Europe, but always had a desire to return to the United States. In Seattle, where he stayed for six years, Mr. Krueger built a symphony orchestra. Desiring to return to the Middle West, he came to Kansas City in 1933, a depression year, to start a symphony orchestra.
Recently, Deems Taylor, music critic for the New York Times, called the Kansas City Philharmonic Orchestra one of the eleven best symphonic orchestras in the United States. He called Krueger the only American-born conductor of a major symphonic orchestra.
Government May Abandon Occupational Registration
Proposed by the women's advisory committee of the Manpower Commission, the new program would be aimed at women who have never worked before. Questionnaires would be sent to women willing and able to do the type of work involved. A house-to-house canvass to recruit them would be made as a follow-up.
The War Manpower Commission has indicated that the proposed nationwide occupational registration of women may be abandoned in favor of an "educational program," to enroll women on a voluntary basis in specific labor-shortage areas.

Japs Planned Pearl Harbor Naval Base, Colonel Tells Shrine
Chicago, Feb. 4—(INS) — Evidence that the Japanese had planned to seize Hawaii and use Pearl Harbor as a naval base was cited today by Col. Francis H. Miles Jr., chief of the safety and security branch of the army ordnance department.
In a speech, "The Inside Story of Pearl Harbor," before the Shrine lunch club in Chicago, Col. Miles said:
"The Japs didn't attack anything which would contribute to Japanese use of the island later. They didn't bomb the airfield runways, or the gasoline and oil storage tanks or empty hangars or repair shops at the navy yard."
Book Campaign To Be Resumed
Books for men in the armed forces are again being collected in a victory book campaign sponsored by th American Library Association together with the Red Cross and the USO. Students were urged today by Mr. C. M. Baker, library director, to bring books they wish to contribute to the University library or the Lawrence Public library.
Mr. Baker also requested that fairly recent books that are in good condition be donated. He pointed out that service men are just as particular of the books they read as anyone else, and that they deserve books of high quality and not just "any old thing that can be dug out of the attic."
Technical books such as books on shop mechanics, chemistry, radio, physics, airplanes, photography, and navigation should be as recent as possible because out-dated books are no good. New novels, jokebooks, mystery stories, adventure yarns, and educational books are greatly in demand.
Last year 10 million books were collected throughout the nation for service men Through the efforts of Alpha Phi Omega, service fraternity, students at the University collected 178 volumes. The Coed Volunteer Corps is joining Alpha Phi Omega in managing the campaign this year.

In one of the exercises, Townley was pulled up on the shoulders of another where he stood in a standing position. At this point of the exercise the instructor warned the men of the danger of a jump from this position and asked them not to do it for their own safety. Witnesses said Townley attempted to dive and tumble on the mat which would break the fall from that distance. In mid-air he changed his mind and lit on his hands and knees, causing the fracture of his left arm. He was taken to Watkins hospital where he is reported to be "feeling better."
Judson Townley, College sophmore, broke his left arm in a tumbling accident yesterday when he attempted to dive off the shoulders of another student. In a five-hour navy section of physical conditioning under the direction of R. R. Strait, instructor, the men were doing calisthenics and other toughening exercises.
It was to relieve the seating shortage at afternoon and evening shows that Mr. Schwahn began the practice of running owl pre-views about six months ago. These shows begin at 11:30 Saturday night and feature the picture to be shown on Sunday; they always attract a full house, despite the inconvenient hour.

Keyed to the wartime tempo of today, all the theaters of the Commonwealth-Lawrence Theater Corporation, under the management of S. E. "Stan" Schwahn, are now operating on a streamlined schedule to keep Lawrence movie-goers entertained.
Five months ago, another theater started running special 'swing shift' shows at 10:30. Tuesday and Saturday mornings for Sunflower Ordinance workers who held night jobs.

Sunflower Ordnance workers and naval trainees, in addition to the Lawrence, Haskell, and KU movie clientele, have swollen the 3.335 seating capacity of the four local theaters to the saturation point. These shows were discontinued about three weeks ago.

Because of the increased movie attendance, the Patee theater was reopened by Mr. Schwahn three months ago. While the Patee runs shows every night, it holds matinees only on Saturday and Sunday afternoon.
Latest move to expedite the cinema schedule has been the running of Sunday shows continuous from 1 p.m. until midnight. This practice, begun three weeks ago, enables four or five complete features to be shown in a day, instead of three as was done formerly.
