A Professor's Morning Mail Reveals Grads Have Strayed
By Phil Gray, sp
By Phil Gray, sp
Although the School of Engineering and Architecture continues diligently to produce architects capable of designing any type of structure from a filling station to a skyscraper, J. M. Kellogg, professor of architecture, received letters yesterday indicating that several of his former students have abandoned the ancient art for other more widely divergent pursuits.
Raleigh Macklin, '34, who at the time of his graduation was considered a potential contender for honors architectural, deserted the drafting board for army flying. His letter to Mr. Kellogg states that he would pilot for Pan American Airways, flying from Miami to South America.
Ralph K. Means, '38, is now junior naval architect stationed
Charleston, N. C. A Naval architect designs boats, not houses. Maurice McManus, '33, wrote that he is now manager of the Indian River refrigeration terminal. Fort Williams deals with the storage of citrus fruit.
"We train architects," said Mr. Kellogg a little sadly, "and we get boat builders and flyers." He added. Oh well, it is a world of fluors these days.
However, there was comfort in two other letters from recent graduates in the same mail. Fran Pryer, '38, is employed in the architectural department of Black and Veach, construction engineers, Kansas City, Mo. Glenn Carson, '38, wrote that he now is employed in
Wichita Editor Disputed Kansas Dav 40 Years
On Jan. 29, 1860, "bleeding Kansas" was duly admitted into these United States. On Feb. 9, Gov. Charles Robinson was duly inaugurated with brass bands, fanfare, and speeches. Until 1892 none but the historians gave these two dates much thought.

Four Numbers On Semester's Concert Series
The Philharmonic concerts, which have been given here annually, have been very popular with Uni-
tials. The orchestra will play Feb. 13.
★ Kansas City Philharmonic Orchestra To Be First Offering Followed by Baritone and Pianist
The Kansas City Philharmonie Orchestra, under the direction of Kruger Wille, will be the first of four symphony Concert series next semester.
Following this concert will be one by Igor Gorin, baritone soloist, on Feb. 27. Jose Hofmann, and Rosa Mayer, the pianists, will complete the series.
Hofmann, famous pianist, who will appear here on March 21, is not new to the University, having played here in May, 1343, during Music week. He is recognized as one of the greatest concert pianists and his popularity in the United States has been proved many times.
Gorin, 29-year-old baritone who will sing here Feb. 27, reached fame in Europe via the opera stage. However, he is better known to the Amrican public for his radio performances and recordings. He appeared twice with Grace Moore on a weekly radio concert series. He made his American debut in the Hollywood Bowl.
The Concert course will end with a concert by the 23-year-old pianist, Rosalyn Twreck. She will perform here April 24, for the first time. Miss Twreck's rice to national musical prominence has been rapid, being aided by numerous awards. She won the $1,000 National Federation of Music Clubs award and the Schubert Memorial award, an appearance with the Philadelphia orchestra.
