PAGE TWO UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS TUESDAY, APRIL 12
From Now On, We Study---- Well, Almost Every Day
The last vacation of the year is over — our last brief respite from the cares and headaches of academic life. From now on until the first of June, we work. Unless, of course, you could call the Senior cakewalk a breather — or the I.S.A. spring dance, or the men's elections, or the Kansas relays.
And then the Music Week festival is coming up, as well as a high school play day and any number of student recitals.
Lawrence Tibbett will sing here in May.
And if you are a junior and haven't passed your proficiency examination, there's always that.
For Balmy Days----
And Spring's the time for picnics and steak fries and hay rides and foamy formals and long strolls in the moonlight.
They say the shows in Lawrence are still open to the public.
Green grass and lilac buds, and Milady brings her work and play out into the open. With an eye for the practical angle, she dons casual slack suits, trim skirt and blouse sets, crisp wash dresses—breezy togs for balmy days.
But still, maybe we'd better study a little, anyway. No matter how drowsy the days or how glamorous the nights, they will melt away. Before we know it Wednesday, May 28, will be upon us.

Play To 10,000 On Band Tour
"Every town in which we played," said Wiley, "asked us to come back next year. Coffeyville has requested us to play on their concert series next year, and offered to pay all necessary expenses for the engagement in case our regular band tour doesn't take in that territory."
Fine Arts Faculty On Busman's Holiday
Easter vacation was little more than a busman's holiday for three faculty members from the School of Fine Arts.
Altogether, the Band played to 10. 000 persons, Director Russell L Wiley said. That makes about 20 persons per mile, which Band members think is not bad.
Dean D. M. Swarthout "got away from it all" by judging a district music contest at Oklahoma City University. Joseph Wilkins, professor of voice, served as judge at a district contest in Springfield, Mo., Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Irene Peabody, mezzo-soprano and associate professor of voice, presented a voice recital at the Phillips Art Museum in Tulsa. She was accompanied by Winifred Hill, fine arts senior.
Wiley said that townpeople who served as hosts to the band were extremely hospitable, and that nobody could ask for better treatment than that received by the band boys.
The three chartered super-coaches rolled back into Lawrence at noon Saturday-on schedule. Then Band members left for home on their Easter vacation, just three days later than the rest of the students.
The Band got back, O.K., and all in 100 pieces.

John Harvey, French-horn player who feels qualified to speak for the band, says that El Dorado is the town as far as beautiful high-school girls and good looking automobiles are concerned. There are also a few handsome boys there, he admits, but not enough to offer any serious competition to the University of Kansas Band.
El Dorado is building a new municipal auditorium, and has asked the band to return for dedication ceremonies when it is completed.
