Arrest Palmer Again; Charge Is Perjury
Robert Palmer, former graduate student at the University of Kansas, was arrested Thursday night in Tulsa, and will be returned to Lawrence to face charges of perjury.
County Attorney Milton P. Beach and Undersheriff Lathrop B. Read, now in Oklahoma City with extradition papers obtained from Governor Payne Ratner, will return Palmer to Lawrence as soon as the papers are ratified by the governor of Oklahoma.
Palmer, also wanted for trial on a charge of possession of intoxicating liquor, could not be taken from Oklahoma on the misdemeanor liquor charge; consequently County Attorney Beach filed charges for perjury, a felony, Friday. The charges allegue that Falmer perjured himself when he testified in the May term of district court that he had not sold liquor within the last year.
Palmer was arrested in Tulsa on authority of a bench warrant issued by District Judge Hugh Means when the former University of Kansas student failed to appear to stand trial for a second time on the liquor charge. His first trial resulted in disagreement of the jury. His bond of $500, posted by his parents for his appearance, was declared forfeited by Judge Means.
Mrs. Palmer, who served a sentence in the county jail here for possession of liquor prior to her husband's arrest, is working in a Tulsa

Buehler Is Commentator In Purdue-Missouri Debate
Officers of the club stress the fact that no experience is necessary for entrance. Every member will be given careful instruction as to correct shooting procedure. It is entirely possible that a first-year girl may earn a place on the team of high ten which shoots in competition at Kemper Military academy in the spring. Lieutenant Colonel Carleton Smith and Lieutenant W. A. Shockley of the R.O.T.C. will be in charge of the firing range. Mary Catherine Colglazier is club captain, and Dorothy Durand is manager.

number is good enough to merit all the applause the audience showered on the composer. It's too bad the orchestra didn't do either of them justice. Tempo trouble again.
Maurice Ravel's "Bolero" came up next, and since the orchestral feud on beat was still in progress, the number suffered accordingly. Every other orchestra plays the number in such a way that both the volume and the tempo increase gradually to a terrific climax. The orchestra's job was a noble experiment, well off the beaten track, in both respects. Liked Leven Withers
chestra, the nimble keyboard antles of Loren Wifers, and the modern dancing of the Alice Sherbon Concert Dance group, all burst on the amazed eyes in unison. There was just too much to take it in one evening.
The last number, Gershwin's "Rhapsody in Blue," would lend credit to that master of the threering circus, P. T. Barnum. The or-
Loren Withers' technique is the equal of many pianists of greater experience and reputation.
The dancers shouldn't have been. They added nothing to the number, and merely took attention away from the music. We aren't cultured enough to see modern dance as art, but that's beside the point. As far as we're concerned, George Gershwin can interpret a mood with just his music. We did not get the connection between the music and the dance.
