Alumnus to Coach Glee Club for Contest
Keith Davis, who was graduated from the School of Fine Arts in 1938 with a major in voice, will arrive on the campus sometime next week to aid the Men's Glee Club in making recordings for the Fred Waring-sponsored contest for university and college glee clubs. Davis is at present a member of Waring's organization.
The Glee Club will go to radio station KMBC, Kansas City, Mo., Saturday afternoon to make the records. The records will
in turn be sent to Waring in New York City,where he will judge them and select a winner from each district.
The district winners will go to New York City where they will appear on his radio program, and from the performances on this program the national winner will be chosen.
Competitors of the K. U. Men's Glee Club in this district will be Mcmouth College, Knox College, University of Illinois, Tarkio College, St. Louis University, Harding College, Wichita University, Oklahoma A. and M., University of Oklahoma, Oklahoma Baptist University, Texas Christian University, Texas A. and M., University of Texas, St. Edward's University, Southwestern Louisiana Institute, and Louisiana State College.
The Glee Club will record "The Banner of Old K. U." a number written especially for the University by Waring two years ago; "Tenebrae Factae Sunt" by Palestina; and "Loch Lomond," a number required of all the entering clubs. It is an arrangement by Roy Ringwald. The numbers are all to be sung A Cappella.
"The K. U. club has an excellent chance of winning the trip to New York and the national publicity that such a radio appearance would bring about," Prof. Joseph F. Wilkins, director of the club stated today. He expressed belief that the University of Illinois and Louisiana State College glee clubs would be the Hill group's closest rivals for the honor.
Law School Hit Hard by Draft
Selective service has cut the enrollment of the School of Law more than 50 per cent, leaving only 50 students enrolled in the School, Dean F. J. Moreau said in discussing the future of law training at the University. Normal enrollment is around 110.
Since it is now possible to obtain liberal arts and law degrees in about the same length of time formerly required for the College degree, Dean Moreau says there are indications that next fall's enrollment will show an upswing. Work for bachelor degrees can now be completed in two and one - half years. The time required for the law degree has been shortened through the use of extended summer sessions.
During the last war several law schools were forced to close, though none have taken that step at present. Dean Moveau said that in spite of a possible further drop in enrollment the Law school here will remain open.
Draft Takes Louis Kuitert
Louis Kuitert, assistant in the School of Education, left last Thursday night for his home in Michigan. Kuitert has been drafted.
