Crime Doesn't Pay This Time; Museum Has Small Loss
Bv Harry Hill. c'40
Not the amount of the theft but the possibilities of a looting expedition is the startling feature of a mysterious raid on Spooner-Thayer museum Tuesday afternoon.
The thieves took four prints from the loan gallery collection issued by the National Committee for Art Appreciation, according to Miss Minnie Moodie, curator of the museum. Total value of the stolen articles, however,
was said to be less than 30 cents.
The apparently inconsequential loss is what is puzzling the officials. A $125 bill in several hundred dollars value could have been "lifted," only the prints we known to be missing.
Women Serenade and March In Annual Lantern Parade
In announcing the theft Wednesday, Miss Noodie said a "thorough investigation" was being conducted. Lawrence police, however, said last night the robbery had not been reported to headquarters.
Bv Jean Hinshaw, c'41
Impressive both to see and to hear was the flame of many Japanese lanterns and the sound of soft voices as 175 University women followed the path from Memorial Union building to Chancellor Malott's home in the twenty-third annual Lantern Parade.
Preceding the parade, the women gathered at the Union building for a 6 o'clock supper. Place cards given to each woman corresponded with the table decorations and indicated at which
table she was to sit. As supper was being served, the group, led by Doris Twente, c'42, and Ethylene Burns, fa 40, sang several popular songs.
at 7 o'clock, with a lighted lon-
tern in the hands of each couple,
the presidents of W. W.C.A. and W.S.
G.A., Edna Mae Parks, c'40, and
Velma Wilson, c'40, led the women
over the Hill. Appearing as a huge
fiery serpent, the couples, singing
"There's a long, long trail a
winding," wound their way on the
Campus.
When Velma Wilson pinned a gardenia on Chancellor Malott, he said: "We will always remember the first night we were welcome here at the museum. We are all men. We extend to you all an invitation to come anytime."
Another event neared its close when the student women, their lancers brightening Chancellor Malott's lawn, serrated the Chancellor and Enaud Parks presented Edua Nau Parks presented Mrs. Malott with a bouquet of roses.
A small group of women, responding to Chancellor and Mrs. Maloff' invitation gathered in living room where most of them sat informally on the floor to talk and sing. The other group, singing "Follow the Glam' returned across the Campus.

Bulwark what has proved to be an aggressive and heads-up forward wall will be Jack West, a leading candidate for the all conference position, and a pair of seasoned wingmen, Captain Martin David and Bill Lillard. All three are playing their third year on the varsity.
Renko and Bunsen Ailing
Coach Henry will not have full strength to send against the invaders. Steve Renko, who suffered a knocked down shoulder in the Bulldog embroglii last week, will be unable to get in very much of the milling, and Bill Bunsen is still nursing an aggrassated hisin injury.
In Renke's right end slot will be Bill Arnold, senior letterman who has been showing up well in practice sessions this week. To fill the vacancy left by Bunsen, Henry will shift Ed Hall to backfill and send Dink Amerine into the game at the helm of Frank Bakaty and Milt Sullivan. Usually Amerine is withheld until Kansas is in scoring position.
Except for Arnold and Dion Pierce starting at center in place of John Narumore, the line will go to the post as it did against Drake. Mike Murphy led QB Quincy Mueller guards; Monte Merkle and Jin Holloway, tackles; and Russ Chiwooload playing opposite newcomer Arnold at the left flank.
