Inter-Frat Sing Date Set For April 26
The annual inter-fraternity singing contest will be held April 26, in Hoch auditorium, Herbert Mueller, chairman of the committee, announced yesterday.
Eight entries have already been received, and more are expected, Mueller said. According to Mueller, this year's sing will be the largest and the most successful held for several years.
The contest rules require that each fraternity sing three songs; one fraternity song, the alma mater, and one of their own choice. First place award is a plaque, which must be won three years consecutively by one group before ownership becomes permanent. Second place wins a large silver trophy, and third place a smaller gold trophy.
Judges will be named at the contest. Order of appearance will be determined by drawing numbers immediately before the program starts.
The fraternities already entered, and their song leaders are: Alpha Tau Omega, Dick Trubey, pharmacy senior; Delta Tau Delta, Bill McIntire, junior engineer; Delta Upsilon, Warren Williams, business junior; Phi Delta Theta, Bob Woodbury, college sophomore; Phi Gamma Delta, Robert Knox, college sophomore; Phi Kappa Psi, Haworth White, college freshman; Sigma Chi, Charles Bradley, business senior; Sigma Nu, Hillis Kennard, college freshman.
Last years winners were: Sigmat Chi, first place; Phi Delta Theta, second; and Phi Gamma Delta, third.
Latimer Honored At Annual Meeting
Dr. H. B. Latimer, professor in the department of anatomy, was recently honored at the annual meeting of the American Association of Anatomists when his paper, "The Weight of the Heart and the Lungs in the Footal, the Newborn, and the Adult Cat," was read. Although Latimer was unable to be present at the meeting, his paper was given a title reading before members of the association.

Six States To Speech Conclave
The Southwest Regional Speech Contest will be held tomorrow and Tuesday at the University of Kansas City. Contestants from six states, Arkansas, Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska, and North and South Texas, will compete, and the contest will be in the nature of an inter-American festival. Merrill Peterson, college junior, and John Adams, Bethany College, have been chosen to represent Kansas.
A roundtable discussion will be held for all contestants Monday afternoon. Monday night the contestants will participate in the ex-temporarous contest and will know the title of their speech only an hour or two before speaking. Of the twelve contestants, six will be chosen for the Tuesday finals.
The winner of the Tuesday finals will go to Washington D.C., to participate in a national broadcast in May. He will also receive a trip to South America with all expenses paid.
UNIVERSITY PLAYS HOST-
In connection with the contests, special lectures, movies, and entertainment will be provided for the contestants. These entertainments will be sponsored by the University of Kansas City and by civic organizations there.
(continued from vage one) travel placed upon railway lines will not permit this plan to be carried out.
Despite tire shortages and transportation inefficiency, several of the schools have already accepted invitations. They are Leonardville, Goff, Corning, Lebo, Melvern, and Williamsburg. Several more schools are expected to attend, stated Harold G. Ingham, director of the extension division, but it is not possible to give the exact number of schools that will be here.
A full day program has been
planned in cooperation with the faculty of many departments. The only expense to visiting students will be that of meals, which will be arranged on a low-cost basis.
The morning program will consists of tours of the campus museums and to other points of interest. The visitors will be shown the way students at the University carry on activities in work and in amusement. The department of drawing and design will have an exhibit for touring students to visit.
At noon a cafeteria-style lunch will be served in the Memorial Union building.
In the afternoon visitors will attend the interscholastic track meet in Memorial stadium. For those who do not wish to attend the track meet, a tea will be held at the home economics practice house, a program in Fraser theater, and a musical concert by University student organizations in the auditorium of Frank Strong hall.
At six o'clock in the evening a picnic dinner will be held in Marvin grove. Last year such a picnic was planned, but rain forced the picnic to be held in Robinson gymnastium. The same alternative will be used this year in case of rain.
To end the program for the day, a special dance will be held in the Memorial Union building from 7 to 9.
TWO-YEAR COURSE
(continued from page one) draftsmen, shift bosses, technicians, and machinists.
The work required in the program is of the same caliber as that required of regular engineering students in the respective departments. It is an abridged course where particular attention and emphasis are given to the "shop and machinist" type of courses, Ambrosius pointed out. Most of the training in this basic program will be given in Fowler shops.
Entrance requirements for the two-year program are the same as for the regular four and five-year programs. Students in the two-year program are required to pay the same
tuition, fees, and other charges incidental to the regular engineering program.
Certificate in Two Years
Although considerable feedback is allowed regarding studies pursued, it is intended that the curriculum follow rather closely the common freshman year outlined for the regular engineering students. This program allows students who choose, to receive a certificate at the end of the second year, while others may obtain an engineering degree by continuing with the four-year program in any of the other departments in the School of Engineering.
Students who wish to continue with their work in one of the fouryear engineering courses must satisfy the same requirements as regular students before they will be eligible for a degree.
In commenting on the proposed program, Jakosky said:
"No other school in the middle west is offering this type of program at the present time. Modern industry for its successful operation requires three classes of workers: skilled mechanics, technicians, and engineers. Mechanics are produced largely through trade schools and are obtained in the type of curriculum we are inaugurating here—a streamlined engineering course to give the student the maximum amount of applied engineering in a two-year period."
"BLUES" IN HOCH—
(continued from page one) first time, presenting its arrangement of "Ballad for Americans" at the spring concert.
This year, the chair has had as accompanist Merrill Jones, fine arts junior. Soloists in the "Blues" will be June Hammett, fine arts junior; Miriam Bartlett, college senior; and John Cole, engineering sophomore. Other members of the group are Patricia Piller, fine arts freshman; Chestine Wilson, fine arts senior; Nancy Jane Petersen, college soph.; Bette Leimert, college sophomore; Betty Jeanne Hess, college junior; Margaret Butler, college sophomore;
Grier Stewart, college senior; Bill Nichols, engineering freshman; Haworth White, college freshman; Preston Brecheisen, college sophomore; Kenneth Dunn, business senior; Clayton Kyle, freshman engineer; David Evans, business junior; Bob White, college junior; Eugene Jones, college junior; and Eldridge King, fine arts sophomore.
SENIOR CLASS-
(continued from page one) Jim Burdge, Emmett Hook, Nancy Carey, and Nadine Schuerman.
Class Prophecy committee: Emily Jean Milam and Margot Baker.
Class Breakfast committee: Jeanne Sunderland, Helen Edlin, Keith Spalding, and Ed Linguist.
Class History committee: Orville Wright and Heidi Vlets.
Alumni Membership committee: Doris Twente, Rlaph Miller, and Jean Fees.
ANGNA ENTERS—
"Boy Cardinal," also of 16th century Spain, is a characterization of the depraved, effeminate, worldly boy prelate of the time of the Borgias. The last presentation will be "Field Day" to music by Sousa. One of the Greatest
(continued from page one) presents Miss Enterts as a sullen young Spanish girl who thinks of murder even while she is following the steps of a conventional dance.
Miss Enters' dancing has been placed on a level with some of the greatest artists of all time. Time magazine said that her dancing and use of castanets in the dance-pantomime "Boy Cardinal" is something Bill "Bojangles" Robinson might have envied. The Brooklyn Eagle has declared her "the only American dancer whose work may be considered artistically significant."
This distinctly new entertainment, compositions in dance form, is the final number on the Community lecture course for the current year and comes as a substitute for a canceled number previously scheduled in February.
