a UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN The Official Student Paper of the University of Kansas VOLUME XXXV Critic Fails To Scoff-- Applauds Dance Program Goes Far Toward Changing Low - Brow Prejudices Against Art By Tom Yoe. c'uncl At least one of an audience that filled Fraser theater last night to witness a dance recital presented by Tau Sigma went to scuff but remained to applaud. Under the direction of Miss Elizabeth Dunkel, assistant professor of physical education, a program was presented that goes far toward changing the typical low-brow prejudice against the dance as an ar to one of understanding. Miss Dunkel, acting as master of ceremonies, explained the various types of dancing and techniques as he introduced the solo and group numbers. 'Nautch Dance' Applauded A professional touch to the program was added by Alice Sher伯丹Bauman, '32, who has studied in New York. In addition to a sole number, she and a supporting group performed her own selection, "Midwestern Theme." Music for this distinctly modern number was written by Frank Cunkle, assistant professor of organ. An evening's high in applause was received by Catherine Dunkel ed38, following her oriental "Nautch Dance." In this dance, arm and body motion is emphasized by painting the performer's hands red. To Maxine Pendleton, c'unel, we the difficult task of demonstrating the various ballet techniques. Not only did she ably perform these, but competently gave a classical ballet solo number. Audience Likes Dancing Z229 Virginia Appel, c41, presented a solo exhibition of the romantic ballet form. Both the group demonstrates of interpretive and modern dancing made hits with the audience. Humer was injected into the program when one twirling dancer was unable to stop before twirling off into the wings and members of the modern group had trouble hitting the props in their exits. The program, which is part of the Kansas Theater forum being held this weekend at the University, will be repeated Saturday morning at 11 o'clock in Fraser theater. For those who cannot now appreciate the art of dancing but would like to understand it better, this program offers an interesting and economical first lesson. on the SHIN by Mitchell and Wire The business election yesterday was more of a Tammany deal than we even hoped for. Buying vows with two-for-a-nickel cigars is all right, but when you buy a pack that's bribery. The funny part was that the whole thing probably would have gone unnoticed if some of the boys had not got so bold with their shekels. Having to pay twenty-five cents to vote is almost as bad as the New York politician who charged the same amount to hear his speech. No one was able to pay the tax where the 65-odd dollars paid in fees goes. Maybe it is a good job the boys were pitching coins to get. The business school professors have been hitting the lightligh quite frequently of late. The pome for today has a note of pathos in that we couldn't ignore, so here it is. Business Statistics If they knew the pain Stat 2 gives to me, They'd let me sell out For a "D." I'd rather fail The Wassermann tests, Than study the books That Dade suggests. -C. I. Crockett Mr. Crockett gets today's ticket to the Granada theater. We hope that he affords that show at least "Test Pilot" starring Gabry, Tracy and Myrna Loy, has been held over for LAWRENCE. KANSAS. FRIDAY. APRIL 29. 1938 Alumnus Gives Address At Business Banquet More than 175 students, faculty members and guests attended the School of Business banquet in the Memorial ballroom last night at the completion of the annual day of celebration in that school. The principal address was given by Maurice L. Breedntial, '10, prominent Kansas City, Kan. baker and former president of the University of Commerce. Mr. Brendntial spends "Kansas and he Great Southwest." Other speakers were Chancellor E. H. Lindley, who welcomed the returning alumni and other guests, Moe Dennis Ellen, b38, who talked about economics; J. H. Tuggart, associate professor of economics, was toastmaster. Name Nevins New Regent Dodge City Man Is Fires Kansas State Alumni Appointed to Board There will be three vacancies on the board July 1 which the governor must fill. The retiring regents are Charles M. Harger, Abilene; Free M. Harris, Ottawa; and Drew Me-Laughlin, Paola. The last regent to be appointed was Howard Payne, Olate the attorney who filled the vacancy of Sam R. Edwards of Blue Rapids. Payne is an alumnus of the University of Kansas. Clarence G. Nevins, Dodge City, an alumnus of Kansas State College, has been appointed a member of the state Board of Regents to fill the unexpired tcrm of J. L. Bradley, Wellington, who resigned. Tentative startling lineups for the varsity-alumni football game tomorrow were announced yesterday, as spring practice drew near its close. Coach Ad Lindsay said yesterday that for the varsity the starters would be either the "gold" team or the "blue" team, with the gold favored because of a better showing in serim-images. Newis' term will expire June 30, 1941. The new board member is the first Kansas State alumnus ever to be appointed. Nevis is also state WPA director, but since regents receive no salary, the appointment will not conflict with his present position. Bradley was appointed last July by Huxman to serve a four-year term. Governor Huxman received Bradley's resignation by telegraph on Wednesday and the new appointment was made the same night. The gold team consists of Dave Shirk and Russell Chitwood, two veterans, at end; Monte Merkel and Quidio Massa, freshman, freshman tackles; Ward Crowell, freshman, and Mike Silhackian, lettermen, guards; Curt Brennan, lettermen, lettermen, letterman, quarterback, Rahm Miller, freshman, and Dick Amerine, letterman, halfbacks; and Ed Hall, freshman, at fullback. Varsity To Play Alumni Tomorrow Starting lineup for the alumni team will probably be: John Seileg and Floyd Hanson, ed. Dean Nesmith and Lewis Ward, tacks; Dick Sklar and George Staplen, guards; Charles Warren, center; Eml Wienlake and Stephen Kelley; and "Bunny" Black, halfbacks; and Maurice Cannady, fullback. A good crowd is expected to be in hand to get a preview of the team Kansas will put on the field this fall. Although the varsity men will be divided into the three teams that have been playing during spring practice, they should put on quite a show. The blue team, which will start it the golds do not, is composed of Steve Renko and John Burge, ends; Fred Boslevac and W. F. Jack, tackles; Mike Andrews and Bill Lenhart guards; Wayne Wilson, center; Walden Hooper, quarterback; Milton Stilvain and Lyman Dennis, halfback; Andy Hollis, center; Boslevac, Wilson, Stilvain, Lenhart and Divers are veterans, while the other men have had no varity competition. Four Veterans May Play Three men who were expected to see a good deal of action may be kept on the sidelines by injuries. They are Dan Rhule, letterman Thomas Sullivan and Sam Travis, freshman backfield man. Large Crowd Expected It Was a Great Fight, But Dean Stockton Inadicates The Election When Commerce Party Lodges Protest Against Alleged Vote-Buying Tactics; Objection Made Before Votes Are Counted 'Dirty Work' Mars Voting In School of Business Some of the boys in the School of Business take their politics as seriously as the most rabid Pachacamac or P.S.G.L. After the polls had closed yesterday in the annual School of Business election, and before the votes had been counted, the Commerce party, through Hazlett Steiger, lodged a protest with Dean F. T. Stockton, and the west end of Frank Strong hall immediately became the scene of a spirited political argument. with the Associated Students of the School of Business—said fee being the amount of 25 cents. Payment of this fee is prerequisite to franchise in the business election. It was over this fee that the squabble arose. Paid Voters, Charge The Commerce party charged that their youthful rivals, the Coalitionists, had paid this membership fee for some of the indifferent voters, in an attempt to boost its vote total. The matter was referred to Dean Stockton, who would not shoulder the responsibility alone, and called in Professors John Blocker and Leonard H. Axe. Since the election was only one feature in the Business Day celebration, the controversy, prolonging the period assigned for the voting conflicted with some other activities of the day. Big John Blocker was intending to play with the faculty team in the baseball game and was unprepared when the Dean sent out the distress call. He came to the conference in tennis shoes, an old pair of pants and a sweat jersey. The confusion was terribly confusing. The politicians swarmed in the vicinity of the Dean's office like an angry drove of bees. One felt very sorry for the poor secretary who had to hold the anxious bosses off while Stockton, Blocker, and Axe were conferring. Finally, the office door opened and all awaked the decision with the impatience of a young boy about to tackle a strawberry ice cream soda. A Confusing Confusion The suspense was relieved only slightly when Dean Stockton announced he would take the controversy under advisement and would announce a decision following the School of Business banquet last week. The president rush for banquet tickets, the sale of which already had been closed. Students Present Papers Tonight for Summerfields Last night, Dean Stockton read his decision, invalidating the election requesting a mass meeting of business students Monday to rule out the troublesome poll tax, and calling another election for next Friday. Now, there is all the campaigning to do over. It is probable that Monday's meeting will result in the abolition of the voting fee and elimination of that avenue for vote getting and possible protest. Martin Withers, c'38, a zoology major, and Hervie Vigour, e'38, majoring in electrical engineering, will present papers at a Summerfield scholars' colloquium at 6 o'clock tonight at the Colonial Tea Room. In Templo, secretary of Endowment Association, will preside. It was a great fight, maw; hello Josephine, Junior and Mary Ann.

Ralph Baker, field manager of the Kansas Press Association, spoke on the subject, "Newspapers in Advertising" before a group of journal majors yesterday afternoon in the last of a series of lectures sponsored by the department of journalism. Ralph Baker Gives Last Lecture to Journalists "Advertising is important to newspapers because it is their largest source of revenue." Baker pointed out. He gave figures to show that out of every dollar spent in advertising, 40 cents is spent for that in newspapers, a larger percentage than in other advertising medium. "The Sidewalks of Newton" was the tune that ran throughout the courtroom in a recent trial case held in Green Hall, the first of this week. It was a case between Mrs. Louisa Pherson, alias Helen Geis, vs. City of Newton. The attorneys for the prosecution presented a noble case, causing sympathy and understanding for the crippled plaintiff (probably remembering some of the unlevel brick sidewalks in Lawrence). A long drawn-out jury deliberation finally decided in favor of the plaintiff and awarded her $1,500. Among the ever-popular witnesses was Sargeant Sarvis McLaughlin. The complaint alleged that the city of Newton was negligent in maintaining an unsafe public sidewalk constructed of board planks, situated on South Third street in said city, and that the plaintiff received permanent injuries when she suffered a fall through a weather-beaten plank on said sidewalk. Wherefor the plaintiff asked damages in the amount of $3,125. Jury Awards Plaintiff Laidler Gives Liberal Views Speaker Offers Challenge To Youth in Discussion Of Social Problems Harry W. Laidler, executive director of the League for Industrial Democracy, gave a speech on "The Student and the Social Challenge" yesterday afternoon at the Memorial Union building. This was to have two lectures featuring features in conjunction with the Collegiate Forums of America. Court Awards '$1500' to Victim Of Sidewalk Fall in Mock Trial Philip Sidney Hama, editor of the Chicago Journal of Commerce, was to have been the speaker last night; to present the conservative point of view, but due to a mix-up with the School of Business hamque he was unable to speak at the Lorc. Mr. Hama's subject was to have been "Can We Improve Our American System?" Doctor Laidier presented a challenge to youth in his speech. The so-called "liberal" view was presented when he stated the only way to settle the problem of employment and insecurity is through a government order in which service rather than profit would be the motive. Cole and Lintner Win 'Y' Election The dissipation of national resources and the wasting of human resources due to unemployment present challenges which have not yet been met, Doctor Laidler continued. Also elected in yesterday's volunte were two new members to the Y.M.C. advisory board, William T Paillin, instructor in the history department, and Clifford Osborne, assistant professor of philosophy. As methods of fighting these problems, Doctor Laidler, who was the Socialist candidate for governor of New York state in 1936, and who has written many books or social conditions in America, suggested further organization of workers in the creation of a Farmer-Labor party. A close election put Zeele Cole, c'40, and John Lintner, c'38, into the offices of vice-president and secretary at the M.Y.C.A. poll asks oppressed candidate for re-election, became president for another term.

Twist Testimony Homer Everwear, employer of Homer, Pherson, alias silver-tongued Harrison Smith, 178, did well in convincing the "wide-awake, interested jury" in favor of the prosecution. NUMBER 144 Cross examination from both the defense and prosecution made most of the witnesses look like provocators. The Hill slang expression "take me out, coach, I'm not so hot" would well have fitted in here.

A Happy Pair Must Have Common Goal Marriage Harmony Is Dependent Upon Joint Interests, Says Carter Harrison Serious interests or goals which dominate the lives of both husband and wife accompanied by frivolous interests and hobbies in which both are interested, make marriage harmony a sure thing, said the Rev. Carter Harrison, first speaker on the "Mariah Harmony" panel held last night in the cafeteria of the Union building. Suggestions for Harmony "If you don't have these, by all means acquire them," the Rev. Mr. Harrison said. "In most cases married couples have separate hobbies. This is desirable if each respects the others' interests, and if there are some interests which they can enjoy together." Mr. Harrison made several suggestions for working towards marriage harmony, first saying that only as each works for the happiness of both is happiness for either possible. Mano Stukey, student and assistant instructor in the physical education department, believes love and mutual service cannot be relied upon. There must be a willingness of both parties to go more than halfway. Many quarrels or disagreements inevitable in marriage can be settled by both parties giving in to pure reason. Inspirational friendships, good times together, and a variety of interests insure marriage harmony, said Stukey. Descriptions of Marriage Mrs. Stukey, also a student, emphasized the fact that college students tend to be over-cautious of marriage. They are too skeptical. This skepticism may be because they have heard too much about the marriage, and not enough of the beauty and fun of marriage. Mrs. Stokes spoke of her own marriage, and told of how much she and her husband had living on half of what they now spend. This panel discussion was the last in a series of lectures sponsored by the W.Y.C.A. and the Y.M.C.A. by Mr. Carson's secretary presided. Mrs. Carson Harrison who was to appear on the panel was unable to be there.
