Symphony Orchestra Shows Good Form
By ED GARICH
The University Symphony orchestra under the direction of Karl Kuersteiner played before a juvenile audience of about 600 grade school pupils of Lawrence and Douglas county schools yesterday afternoon in Hoch auditorium.
The program presented was made up of numbers calculated to appeal to juvenile appetites, and from the reaction of the listeners, it seemed to fill the bill.
The orchestra really sounded good, most of the time, for a first appearance. Of course, mid-season polish hasn't yet been acquired, but it will come.
A feature of the program was the appearance of Richard Rice, fine arts senior, as guest conductor of "Perpetuum Mobile," or, if we must be vulgarly American, "Perpetual Motion," (Strauss). The tricky little number lives up to its title, and was ably handled by the student maestro.
The program got under way with the "Euranthe Overture" (Weber).
100 Hear Ashton On "Renaissance"
Dr. John W. Ashton, head of the department of English, spoke to approximately 100 English majors and graduate students of the department yesterday afternoon at a meeting in the Union building, using England's literary, renaissance as his topic.
Probably the heaviest thing on the program, the overture was done in good style. At this point, Kuersteiner introduced the various instruments to his audience.
Following Dr. Ashton's address, the department held a tea in the Old English room for all those who attended the lecture. Miss Margaret Lynn, professor of English, and Miss Rose Morgan, associate professor of English, were in charge of the tea.
Next up was the "Hungarian Dance No. 5" (Brahmis), a piece which finds an attentive audience in grown-ups as well as children. The program then got definitely juvenile with the playing of "The Music Box" (Liadow), a charming little ditty played by horn, flute and clarinet.
The Strauss number came next, followed by a local product, Charles Skilton's interpretation of the Cheyenne Indian dance. The effect was further carried out by three students from Haskell who appeared in full tribal paraphernalia to give an example of early American jitterbugging.
The program then relapsed into the juvenile again with "The Elephant and the Flea" from "The Carnival of Animals" (Saint Saens), with the arrangement by baton-wielder Kuersteiner. The offering was done byuba, harps, and flute.
Last number on the program was "The Beautiful Blue Danube" (Strauss), the only number which fell short of being passable. Maybe too critical, because the waltz, being so popular, has been given about every treatment imaginable, but even at that, it seemed a little flat. Herr Strauss's waltzes always hold a zip for your reporter, but the K.U. symphony evidently still believes in buttons. The climaxes were far short of what they should have been, and the piece was too steady in tempo in places. Part of the charm of the Strauss waltzes is the tantalizing, guess-whats-going-to happen-next quality. We missed it yesterday.
The program closed with the singing of the national anthem, a number which is good music to anybody these days.
Be Aggressive!
Have you a "secret passion" or special "one and only" of the opposite sex?
Well—here's a word of advice—don't sit back and let Jack walk off with her — be aggressive.
How can you best do that in a subtle sort of way?

All injured Jayhawkers have been improving and will be able to play. Relph, Pierce, Marvin Vandaveer, and Quido Massare present a smaller injury list than that of the earlier games. Vandaveer and Massare have been kept on the sidelines in the last two games by knee injuries.
Kansas' starting lineup shows promise of better things to come. Only three seniors will be in at the kickoff—Pierce at center and Hall and Suagege in the backfield. The five junior starters are Jack at tackle, Hartman and Fluker at guards, Ulrich at end, and Fry at halfback. Three sophomores will start, Paul Hardman at end, Ross Relph at tackle, and Don Pollom at half.
The gridders arrived in Martinsburg, Va., this afternoon and are now working out there. They will stay in Washington tonight. Immediately after the game the Jayhewks check out, with no time out for sightseeing trips, arriving in Lawrence Sunday.
