To Exhibit Color News Pictures Here This Week
In answer to the man who said, "It can't be done," the Chicago Tribune invested over a million dollars in a color studio for the development of newspaper color prints. The dividends from that investment should draw plenty of interest at the exhibit of newspaper pictures in color at the Memorial Union building this week.
The collection is being shown here for the first time at any college or university. The exhibit has recently been attracting attention at the Chicago Art Institute. From Lawrence the color prints will go to the William Rockhill Nelson Art Gallery in Kansas City for a month's exhibition.
Color pictures in themselves are nothing new. They have been used commercially in magazines for a long time. But the process used has been a lengthy one, incapable of being adapted to high-speed newspaper work. To bring colored news pictures within the confines of the deadline, the Chicago Tribune set up their studio. Its pioneering research, in conjunction with a camera manufacturer, developed an entirely new technique, using a one-shot, special color camera with three negatives. With it the picture can be taken, developed, and printed in the paper within two hours.
The pictures on display here are all "stills", including a shot of a statue of Nathan Hale, portrait pictures of
This exhibit was brought to the University by Bert Brandt, former student, now assistant manager of the Kansas City division of Acme Newphoto. While in Chicago last month, Mr. Brandt spent a day in the Tribune's color studios. Impressed by the uniqueness of the prints, he asked permission to bring the pictures to the campus for a week before their scheduled appearance in Kansas City

These are in soft pinks, browns, and blues. Suits to be worn now and later in the summer are appearing. They are made of gingham, another colorful and easy-to-
care-for cotton.
When the rains came this week, the campus sprouted clever white raincoats with hats to match. These short boxy coats are so clever and the turned up hats so flattering and youthful that outfits are being worn on sunny days, too.
Spun rayons in prints continue to be as good as they were last year but cotton is king this season. Shark-skin, a favorite of last season, is a natural for sailor dresses in white with navy trim or navy with white trim.

Delta Tau Delta has a fine working infield that has made remarkable recoveries this year and it is expected that it will cut off many a batter that reaches base. Voran is especially apt at the first sack and his southpaw batting is a menace to all hurlers.
Beta's list of outstanding players is headed by Hogben and Weineck. Both men are powerhouses at the plate and mainstays in the outfield and infield respectively.
