Following is the program she will present: Begrüessung Handel Se Florindo e Fedele Scarltier Agnus Dei Biziet Fruehlingstraum Schubert Der Tod und das Macchen Schubert Wohin Schubert Ave Maria Schubert O Don Fatale (Don Carlos)...Verdi Intermission Sometimes Rossootto Eros Cohen Amuri, Amuri Sadoru Finnish Sailor's Song Vehanen Negro spirituals: Deep River arr. by Burleigh Heav'n, Heav'n' arr. by Burleigh Crucifixion arr. by Payne Lord's Been Andered arr. by Price Lord Short short story- HAY by WIRE The student's face turned a glably white as his trembling hands gripped the edge of the desk. He swared back and, but managed to tell the library assistant in a weak voice, "I'll be all right." LAWRENCE, KANSAS, SUNDAY, JANUARY 16, 1938 A crowd quickly gathered an asked. "What happened." "I just told him," replied the be-wildered assistant, "that the book he wanted is in—and not out on faculty use." Only three more days left to do these little but mighty (important) things that you promised yourself you would do Thanksgiving, but didn't, and didn't Christmas, and didn't yesterday when you slept all morning. Dream on, children. You may be able to whittle that night-made down to a pony, and ride through the week all right. Marian Anderson, one of the greatest of Negro contras, comes to the Campus tomorrow night in the last number of the concert series for this semester. Miss Anderson has been widely acclaimed in Europe, where she may make her mark in America and a tour of the United States. Lawrence is indeed fortunate in having such an artist appear here. POME Pawdon us: Dance manners, bad in Britain, were "much, much worse" in America, declared Canon W. Thompson Elliott in a Leeds, England, newspaper article about his trip to the United States. To see a youth's performance, you see his elbow toward a girl and hear him say "Hop on, kid!" annoyed me extremely," commented the canon.

Lindley will go to Dodge City, Monday, Jan 24, to speak before the Rotary club that noon. He will fill two other engagements before returning, speaking first to high school students at Great and later at the defi nation of the new school building at Ruseil. Names Reed To High Court Washington, Jan. 15—(UP)—President Roosevelt tonight acted to "neutralize" the Supreme Court controversy by the nomination of Solitary-Green Reed as successor to Associate Justice George Sutherland. Nominated As Successor To Sutherland Who Retires Jan. 18 Democrats and Republicans, friends and foes of the defeated court reorganization court plan, agreed that Reed was a good selection. Regarded as a liberal, he carried the burden of the Supreme Court struggles to uphold the far-reaching social and economic legislation of the administration. Reed had much to add in much of the bitterness which developed around the Supreme Court last year during the battle over its reorganization. The S3-year-old court appointee, second nominee to the tribunal during the Roosevelt administration, appeared to be acceptable to all factions in the senate, which is expected speedily to confirm him after perfunctorial inquiry by the judiciary committee. NUMBER 78 The selection completed the definite liberal majority of the court. It put a period at end of party-spitting conflict over the tribunal conflict and over New Deal legislation. It sharply offset the controversy of membership of Mr. Roosevelt's first court appointment, Justice Hugo Black. Alumnus Objects To Traffic Jams Gwinn Henry, director of athletics, has received a letter from G. H Penney, 1101 Tennessee, a University alumnus, protesting the congested traffic situation which exists following basketball games. Mr. Penney stated in his letter that because of close parking at the Kansas-Oklahoma game, he incurred an expense of $7.07, which included repairs to a scraped fender and the expense of a wrecker, called to extricate the wheel from the ground of another car. Because of the delay, he and his wife were unable to keep an important engagement after the game, he said. To Hear Appeals On Parking Fines Appels on University parking fines will be heard by the joint M. S.C.-W.S.G.A. parking committee Monday and Tuesday evenings at 7:30 o'clock in the Pine room of the Union building, Don Hanson, 138, chairman of the committee, announced last night. Holders of parking tickets whose names begin from A to M may appear Monday night. The N-Z group will be heard Tuesday. More than 150 tickets for parking violations have been issued this semester, Hanson said. Fines for those who do not appear before the committee will be added automatically to second semester fees.

The results of the specialty tryouts were not available yesterday afternoon, since the judges for the tryout did not reached their decision as yet. Tomorrow afternoon at 4 o'clock there will be a practice of the women's dancing chorus. It is desired by the staff that all women who are interested in trying out for the chorus and did not get an opportunity to do so last week will be given an opportunity tomorrow afternoon. The day after the University Daily Kansas last week was tentative and it is probable that some changes will be made, said Coleman. The show will be presented April 4 and 5, and it will include many of the up-to-date dance routines seen in shows of this nature in the cities. It will be written by student script writers and the music used will be composed by students. The show will be a variety performance with songs, dramatic skits, dancing, and music of all varieties.

To Remodel Fraser Steps Marian Anderson, young Negro contralto who will present a program on the University Concert Series now night at 8:30 in Hoch auditorium. In the interests of safety for student pedestrians, changes are to be made on the east entrance to Fraser hall as soon as workingmen in the buildings and grounds staff can get to it. C. G. Bayley, superintendent of grounds and grounds said places had been completed and the work authorized. Work Authorized T c Remove Hazard at East Entrance The lower flight of steps which form the old-fashioned coach entrance are to be removed so that the sidewalk may continue on the ground level. A new platform will be placed where the upper flight of lofts is, and new steps to the ground level will lead down north and south. Persons "detouring" into the driveway in preference to climbing the five steps up and five down to go over by the coach entrance caused a definite traffic hazard, which is to be removed. Ruppenthal Is Jailed Dean Paul B. Lawson appeared before Judge Hopkins in Friday's hearing to vouche for Ruppenthall's ability as a student and to praise his work as an employee in the College office. Karl Ruppenthal, c'29, has been remanded to jail by Judge Richard J. Hopkins of the federal district court, pending further investigation of charges that he violated a parole by dealing in unlawable literature. Indicted about a year ago by a grand jury for using the mails to defraud, Ruppenthal pleaded guilty and has given a suspended sentence. He was placed on probation by Judge Hopkins. By a three to one vote the commission decided on the public appeal. The city manager and county courts, both part of the Pendergast faction, previously had curtailled the commission's payroll. Kansas City, Mo., Jan. 15—(UP) —The city election commission, named without approval of T. J. Pendergast, dominant leader of Democratic faction, tonight appealed to the public for $10 million funds so it can continue work. Ruppenthal, whose home is in Russell, has been an honor student, is well liked by members of the faculty who know him, and has held several student positions of responsibility, Dean Lawson said. Election Board Needs Monev Members of the commission charged that payroll action was designed to hamstring the commission by preventing it from employing men necessary to check votes to be enrolled. Sorry, the commission had already been uncovered. Doubling enrollees ended when the circuit court held the signing of a fraudulent application to register did not constitute a crime. The deadlock between the commission board and the city and county government occurred two weeks ago when the county court refused to approve the December payroll of the board.

It was a slow,扛旗 tilt that saw the Cyclones attack the Cyclones' attack to 4 field goals. STANDING OF THE TEAMS Praille was the big gun in the Kansack attack and was high point man in the game by virtue of 3 field goals and 5 free throws. Elbing also played an important part in the viability of the team's ability, although he failed to score. Praile opened the scoring when he made good on Ryan's foul, but Anderson came back to zapulate him. Praile made another free Praile.
