Farmer Wins---completed the second step toward final approval last night when the M. S.C. okayed both measures.
The Central Committee on Activities recently granted $550 to the housing board and $250 for leveling of the intramural football field. All appropriations of the Central Committee must be approved by both councils. The grants are final if passed by the W.S.G.A. tomorrow night.
A bill designed to put varsity dances on a non-profit basis was passed by the council. The bill, introduced by Brewster Powers, e'40, abolishes the dance manager position. All future varsities will be arranged by a dance committee composed of two representatives from each council and the chairman of the student union activities board.
It was said that the dance bill would attempt to reduce the varsity price in the spring to encourage attendance while interest is lower. The lower price was thought to be possible because of the reserve built up earlier in the year when the price is higher,

Elizabeth Meguiar, adviser to women; Olin Templin, secretary of the Endowment Association; Henry Werner, men's student adviser; Ed Price, c'42, Y.M.C.A. president; Jim Burdge, c'41.

Art Designed----
tabel unless the picture interests us, then we should find out all we can about it. He also explained that art was designed for entertainment, and only incidentally as education.
"One of the things we need most in museums is natural behavior. There's no need to speak in a whisper, there's no body in the next room. There's no need to snatch off your hat. We appreciate it of course, it shows you are dignified people, but there is a very good reason for keeing your hat on."
The speaker then went on to explain that most galleries are top lighted, and therefore the hat helps you to see the pictures better. He explained that he didn't mean a lady's hat, but a regular man's hat.
Dr. Kelley explained the reason why we like only about 30 per cent of the pictures we see as follows, "Music, painting, literature, and drama are all the same thing. Someone wanted to express an idea. Seventy per cent of the pictures are bad because the artist has a New England conscience. He paints because he thinks it's about time he painted something. He doesn't know clearly what his idea is, and sometimes doesn't have an idea."
Other numbers on the program included the "Manx Overture" (Wood), by the University band; the first verse of "America," sung by the audience and led by Dean D. M. Swarthout; "Hunting Song" (Clokey) sung by the University Men's Glee Club, and group singing of the Alma Mater and the Rock Chalk closed the program.
Evelyn Swarthout----
M. Swarthout, sang Bach's "Magnificat" before a crowd numbering more than 500 last night in Hoch
auditorium. Included in the work, which was well received by a mixed audience of townpeople and University students, were five dramatic choruses, written in five distinctive voice parts. The University Symphony Orchestra furnished the accompaniment. Soloists were Marie Wilkins and Meribah Moore, sopranos; Irene Peabody, alto; Joseph Wilkins, tenor; and Rudolph Voth, bass.
Outstanding was the duet of Miss Peabody and Mr. Wilkins and a ladies' trio, in which the three women soloists sang with nine selected voices from the chorus
The stringed orchestra opened the program with the "Brandenburg Concerto in F Major." The work, recognized as one of Bach's best, was directed by Karl Kuersteiner. Richard Crooks Tomorrow
The final event on the hour long concert was the presentation of Bach's fiftieth cantata "Now Shall the Grace," a work written for two choirs in double fugue. The A Cappella choir sang the number unaccompanied.
Tomorrow night in Hoch auditorium, Richard Crooks, Metropolitan Opera star and at present tenor of the Firestone Hour, will present his concert, the highlight of Music Week.
Thursday, Friday, and Saturday the Pro-Arte String Quartet will bring the week to a close with concerts in Fraser theater.
Reola Durand---awards in his department. Leo Rhodes, b'40, was named to receive the Delta Sigma Rho award for outstanding work in debate and oratory. Mac Wynne, c'40, was cited for having made the greatest improvement in speaking.
Prof. Buehler announced that K.U debaters and orators had participated in 140 programs during the past year.
New members of Delta Sigma Rho, honorary speech fraternity, named last night are: Irving Kuraner, c'40; Mac Wynne, c'40; Robert Sullivan, l'42; Emmett Park, b'41; and John Stewart, l'40.
Guests at the banquet were majors in the department, winners of speech contests, members of Delta Sigma Rho, National Collegiate Players and the Dramatic Club.
Malott Will---gathered from his work in personnel at Harvard University and as vice-president of the Hawaiian Pineapple (Dole) Co., in Hawaii.
Chancellor Malott is co-author of the book, "On Going Into Business," addressed to educated men who are looking for a first job or a better one. The three authors, Baker, Kennedy, and Malott, were engaged in active business, taught business subjects, and interviewed employers.
The meeting will be open to all students and is scheduled to be completed in an hour.
These observations and contacts were incorporated into the book for the benefit of ambitious youths.
