Another one of those deadly basketball teams from the Sooner state will appear in Hoch auditorium at 7:30 tonight when the Oklahoma Aggies meet Kansas in the final game of the season.
Three times this year F. C. "Phog" Allen's basketeers have tangled with Oklahoma quintets and three times they have been denied victory. Hugh Ford and Company turned the trick twice and the Aggies once. Tonight's game will give the Kansas a last chance to dispute the supremacy of Oklahoma basketball over the Kansas variety.

The University Symphony orchestra spring concert, which will be presented in Hoch auditorium Thursday night, will feature the music of American composers and is being billed as the "American Concert."
One American composer is Charles Sanford Skilton, professor of organ at the University. As a composer, Skilton needs no introduction to American audiences, but for many years one of his best compositions has not been heard in Lawrence.
The "Prelude to Electra" by Skilton has been honored on many occasions elsewhere and is included on the program. Music critics rank it among the best orchestral works of its kind.

Better known to Kansas audiences is his "Deer Dance" which was played on the campus several years

the Modern Choir. Clarence Peterson,
