Swarthout Presents Last Choir Concert
The Westminster A Cappela Choir will give its final local concert at 7:30 o'clock this evening at the First Presbyterian church. This concert will be the last under the leadership of Dean D. M. Swarthout, who has been director of the organization for the past 17 years. Dean Swarthout has resigned to direct an all-University choir next year.
The choir has attractive favorable attention over a large territory. It has appeared on three different occasions with the Kansas City Philharmonic orchestra at the request of Karl Krueger, director. In a recent letter to Dean Swarthout, Krueger stated that the choir in his estimation was among the top four or five a cappella choirs of the country.
week. The choir gave a concert program last Sunday evening before a large crowd at Ottawa, and on the previous Sunday sang at Topeka.
The choir gave one of the most outstanding performances of its career in the Bach, "Magnificat," given as one of the features during Music week.
Both sacred and secular numbers will be included in the program Sunday evening. The chorus for double choir "Now Shall the Grace," from the 50th Cantata of Bach, will be a feature of the concert. The anthem "When Morning Gilds the Skies" (Powell Weaver), dedicated to the Westminster Choir and Dean Swarthout, will also be included
Minerva Davis, fa42, will sing the solo in the "Credo" anthem by (Gretchaninoff). The solo part in "Sweet Little Jesus Boy" will be sung by Dorothy Allen, fa41.
M.S.C. To Meet-
(Continued from page one)
"We can't promise that we'll change it," Farmer stated, "and if we do there will likely have to be a joint meeting of both councils."
Farmer said the council will attempt to arrange for uniform parking regulations for both men and women studentis. Some of the penalties, he said, seem to be slightly harsh, especially for women students, who have separate regulations to observe.
A council stand on the question of freshman traditions next fall is expected to be made, and a discussion of whether or not the new council will contribute to the dormitories fund will be held.
The council will also consider plans for having an information booth in center Frank Strong hall next fall for the benefit of incoming freshmen, Farmer said.
Math Club Ends Year With Picnic
The Mathematics Club will hold its last meeting of the year Monday afternoon, in the form of a picnic at Shawnee lake, southeast of Topeka.
Officers will be elected and awards made to the members who presented the best reports at meetings throughout the year.
Club members, who number about 30, will leave the campus at 4 o'clock Monday afternoon.
Crafton Praises Acting In University Movie
The University of Kansas will become the second Hollywood when the premiere of "Far Above the Golden Valley" is presented May 29 under the silver lights and glamorous atmosphere of Fraser theater.
Told in a dramatic story form, the picture is the first of this type to be filmed by a college, according to Prof. Allen Crafton, director of the movie, and is extremely difficult to do. "A painter would find it hard to tell his picture in words and trying to tell a story in a series of pictures is just as difficult because your pen is your camera," Professor Crafton said.
"The students in the film have done will in depicting the type of character they represented," he added. "There is the homesick student who finally learns to adjust himself to his new life, the snobish girl who becomes aware that there really is a democracy, and the boy working his way through school surmounting all difficulties to make good.
"The story has been told without the use of subheads. This was the effort of all the old silent films, and is difficult to accomplish, especially without professional direction, Professor Crafton said.
The general idea of the film is told in the opening paragraph of the picture. "Every September hundreds of young people leave home to come to the University of Kansas and continue their education which is found in more than books
They find it in overcoming opposition and in making adjustments to a new life by learning to live with their fellow men. Here is a glimpse of young Kansans learning to live in a democracy which they will make."
The film has been turned over to the extension division where after several copies have been made it will be sent to various schools and organizations which want more information in this connection.
"The film is just a story of everyday life here on the Hill with each picture taking care of the nouns, pronouns, verbs, adjectives and sentences of the story," Professor Crafton ended.
W. Arnold Lynch, fa'uncl, gave the only senior organ recital of the year in Hoch auditorium Wednesday night.
Has Senior Recital In Hoch Auditorium
Lynch, student of Laurel Everette Anderson, has had considerable experience in the concert field and at the present time is the organist for the First Presbyterian Church in Topeka.
The final senior recital of the year will be given at 4 o'clock Sunday afternoon by Betty Lou Mechem, soprano, student of Irene Peabody, and Vincent Bleeker, violinist from the studio of Olga Eitner in the auditorium of Frank Strong hall.
