400 Teachers At Convention Philharmonic Tonight
Seven, that lucky number of tradition and dice games, perhaps will make more secure the precarious position now occupied by the Kansas City Philharmonic orchestra when that famous group of artist musicians presents its concert of symphony music in Hoch auditorium at 8:20 tonight. Seven is the number of pieces to be played this evening, and its no secret that the Philharmonic needs all the luck it can get.
The Philharmonic board of trustees, who already have considered a proposal to disband the orchestra, will make their final decision Friday when a special ways and means committee makes its report. If the committee says "disband," then tonight will be the last appearance of the Philharmonic in Hoch auditorium.
Lois Craft, harpist, will be the featured soloist on the concert this evening.
NUMBER 98.
Tonight's program of seven numbers includes "Overture, Hebrides" (Mendelsohn); "Symphony No. 5, in E Minor, Op. 64" (Tschaikowsky); "Introduction and Allegro for Harp and Orchestra" (Ravel); "Pomp and Circumstance, Op. 39" (Elgar); "Danse Macabre" (Saint-Saens); "Andante Cantabile from the Quartet, Op. 11" (Tschaikowsky); and "Overture, Russian Easter" (Rimsky-Korsakoff).
Student activity tickets are good for admission to the concert.

Lack of cooperation on the part of students in sending in data on the new influenza vaccine has made it impossible for Watkins Memorial hospital to compile the material.
Organized Houses Are Not Cooperating On Vaccine Returns
Time was spent trying to hit upon a happy definition of the term "hazing." This came as part of the discussion of possible violations of the M.S.C. anti-Hell Week bill, but the bill gave power only to discipline for hazing, and as hazing escaped definition, the council decided to leave the action up to the Men's Inter-Fraternity Council. New Shape for Key?

M.S.C. Meets Last Night
A proposal to set up a Big Six booking agency to secure better bands for school dances by having name bands play at conference schools during the same week was referred to the dance committee for study.
Proposals, trivialities, and plans to delay action flew thick and fast at a short meeting of the Men's Student Council, held in the Pine room of the Memorial Union building last night. After a lengthy discussion it was decided to set the spring election dates between April 1 and 25.
Bill Farmer, president of the Council, proposed a tentative plan to cement student-faculty relations by establishing a joint council which would hear complaints on present courses, criticisms of faculty actions, and agitations for new courses.
After a discussion of some twenty minutes it was decided to take up the problem of changing the shape of the student council key in a later meeting.
The committee would also sponsor smokers and vocational guidance forums, and a one hour orientation course for entering freshmen. Russell Mosser, P.S.G.L. representative, moved to form a committee to study the possibilities of the plan.
"Convention machinery is working at maximum capacity," Karl O. Kuersteiner, president of the Kansas Music Teachers Association, and director of the University symphony orchestra, said this afternoon.

"Attendance at our convention already has reached 400, surpassing by 150 all previous K.M.T.A. convention attendance records," he added. "Master classes have almost double their expected enrollments, and all sessions have been exceedingly well attended."
The program of Kansas music was especially well liked by convention-ites. Howard Halgedahl, bassoonist, and Homer Keller, pianist, from Ft. Hays Teachers College, brought much favorable comment from the audience when they played Keller's "Sonata for Bassoon and Piano."
Theodore Harrison, famous baritone soloist and teacher, took the stage in Frank Strong auditorium yesterday afternoon to surprise and please his listeners. Harrison, at an age when most men have forgotten (continued on page eight)
Four From K. U.
In Primary
Four persons connected with the University will watch election returns closely tonight. They are candidates for election in the Lawrence primary election. Officially this is a primary election, but if no candidates file on the independent ticket before the regular city election of April 1, the offices will be filled tomorrow.
A. M. Ockerblad, associate professor of applied mechanics, is a candidate for councilman from the first ward; F. A. Russell, professor of civil engineering, is uncontested candidate for councilman from the third ward, and Paul B. Lawson, dean of the College, and Mrs. Carrol D. Clark, wife of the professor of sociology, are candidates for positions on the board of education.
Marine Lieutenant Interviews Candidates
Lieutenant R. D. Taplett, liaison officer from the Marine Corps, is here at the University making preliminary arrangements to enlist applicants for a commission, through the candidates' classes, into the Marine Corps Reserve.
Students who will be graduated this spring are eligible. Lieutenant Taplet will remain in Lawrence until 2:30 p.m. Wednesday, and students may contact him at the Military Science office.
He will return to Lawrence in two weeks to interview applicants and give preliminary physical examinations. Final physical examinations and enlistments will occur late in the spring.
Engleman Breaks Big Six Record
Howard Engleman became the new Big Six individual scoring record holder last night, when he raised his season's total to 158 points in the Iowa State game at Ames.
This mark surpasses the old of 154 points, set by Frank Groves of Kansas State in 1937. Groves needed 10 games to set his record, but Engleman did the trick in nine. Therefore any

Holbrook To Interview Students For Harvard
Students who want to enter Harvard should arrange at the College office for an interview with Luther G. Holbrook, assistant dean of the Harvard business school, who will be at the University on Thursday.
*points "Rope" might score in the Oklahoma game will be gravy.
In 1939, as a sophomore, Engleman earned a starting berth at forward and chalked up a total of 122 points for the season, including both conference and non-conference contests. He participated in 19 games to rack up an average of 6.4 points per game.
A lack of consistency marked Engleman's play that year. In several games he was held scoreless, but when he was "hot", he couldn't be stopped. Against Oklahoma, he was particularly torrid and went on a scoring rampage against the Sooners which will not soon be forgotten. The blond ace sank 27 points to break the old Kansas individual scoring record of 26 tallies set by "Phog" Allen himself back in 1906.
Handicapped by Bad Knee
Last year, "Rope" was handicapped by a bad knee, playing irregularly during the first half of the campaign. But he recovered in time to score 11 points against Creighton and 13 against Missouri as the season drew to a close.
This was just a warm-up for the N.C.A.A. playoffs, however, when the Ark City sharpshooter really went to town. He came through with 11 points per game against Oklahoma and Oklahoma A. and M. in the Missouri Valley playoffs to lead the Jayhawks into the Western semi-finals.

One Year Out of Order--- Engineers' Exposition To Be Held April 18-19
Back in the spring of 1922, students in the School of Engineering were making great plans for their annual Engineering Day celebration. There was going to be the usual athletic contests between departments, the banquet, and dance, but the big event was the parade of floats. The engineers always carried a supply of eggs and stinkbombs during the parade and shelled their traditional enemies, the lawyers, who returned the fire. The big day was set for April 27. On the night of April 26, the floats were assembled and ready for the parade, but there was no parade. During the night, persons unknown went through the floats like Hitler went through the Low Countries, and next morning the engineers found a sorry-looking mess of junk in-
When the mob of engineers arrived at Green hall, the lawyers were already firmly entrenched on the steps and in the halls. In the brawl that followed, windows were broken, fire extinguishers turned on the "contestants," and a few facial features changed. The April 27 issue of the Kansan told of one engineer who wore an Alpha Tau crest over his left eye as a result of a lawyer punch.
As a result, all social relations between the Engineering and Law schools were severed and Chancellor Lindley abolished the Engineer's Day.
But, in 1923, P. R. Walker, dean of the School of Engineering, had an idea for turning surplus engi- (continued to page eight)
