Dramatic Club Play Makes Hit With Audience
The Official Student Paper of the University of Kansas
"This Thing Called Love
Presents a Fast
Moving Comedy
Of Today
Ralph Bryant, e'unc.
Ralph Bryant, 'cune'
Even staid George and Martha
Washington would have laughed up-
er life. He would have lived on the
lifeblood life and modern love presented
by the Dramatic club in "This
Thing Called Love" last night.
Old Fraser theater resounded to the ratings of mankine K cible '37, and Eshler Holeleeer, C37, characterizing Mr. and Mrs.Bertrand, and to the applause and laughter of the large audience.
Betty Ruth Smith, fa'37, as Ann,
the converted spinner, was perfecty at home on the stage, laughing spontaneously and loving fervently. Her movements were graceful and timely.
The cast did kn excellent job of mood creation in the first act. With soft music on the radio, drinks were served, the characters paired off and chatted amiably, creating an atmosphere verging closely on the theme of "Abode of the Blessed" which is to be described to scribe the house. Lightning the "Abode of the Blessed" is changed to "Madhouse of the Manias" when Miss Hollecker lets go with that gentle voice of her.
Her cohort, Larry Wightman, e37,
transformed himself quickly from a long-lost stranger to a man totally familiar with the modern world.
NUMBER 90
Fred Littleton, c39, couldn't keep from smiling at his own jokes, but that's excusable when you consider that they're pretty good jokes and the person who sees him Norme he finds one place where he licked when he tries to make Amel's marriage number five in his list of shamelessly uprooted love-matches
Every entrance of Mary Frances Martin, c.37, framed a picture in the mind's eye of a typical college widow.
Lucie Wagner, fa'38 always knew just what to say at just the right time. Her ability was exceptional at turning the conversation tenden-
tially from one to another, pasture instead of leading them along the straight and narrow. But her husband, Joe Myers, c'ucul, was used to it and thought his cause hopeless until harassed husband Thomas was killed that they leave the rowdy group.

Seriously, the cast co-ordinated well, showing the artistry of its director, Rolla Nuckles, especially in its "ad-lib" scenes. Fast action, except for an occasional love scene, prevailed. The play began in a roar of excitement and ended in a flurry of confusion.
Lucie Gaydon, c'urel, and James Bradfield. c'urel, played the boyad and maid, small but necessary parts taking their cues properly.

The Delta Tac's are reported to be searching for a culprit brother (supposedly) who put a goldfish in a pitcher of drinking water. Glasses were repeatedly enclosed and refilled from the pitcher—all seemed well until the housemother drained the pitcher and out flopped the fish into her glass. "Tis sad that some who had participated have to have symptoms like sickness."
One of the Pi Phi members has been putting out the information that her sorority is backing its efforts to recruit for the Hill's "most fascinating He."
We have been asked to announce that anyone wishing to have a flattering picture of Bill Brown, Phi Delt, may secure one from last Sunday's K.C. Star—Brown's picture appeared with those of several other children belonging to the "Doting Grandmother's Club."

Cunningham Wins
Jamming into the lead a half lap from home, Glenn kept his 1537 indoor record free of defeats by finishing three yards ahead of his perennial rival, Gene Venkze, former captain of the Italian Lugbale Bacchia of Italy Academy 1500 meter champion in 1932, finished third, eight yards behind Venkze. Fourth place went to Miklos Szabo, of Hungary, who was twenty yards

behind the Italian, Ray Sears, former Butler University star, finished fifth, far out of the running.
Cunningham covered the distance in 4:12.4, far less than his world record of 4:08.4. Archie San Romani of Emporia, who was fourth in the 1936 Olympic meter event did not run last night but visited from Kansas City Friday night, but his plane failed to take off because of bad weather. Cunningham running in the red and white of the New York Curb Exchange, whipped Venkze and the rest tonight like he has so many times before, into the lead near the tape and delivering a blistering kick finish.
Sears set the pace for eight of the laps. Going into the ninth lap, Venakzo, running for the New York Athletic Club, swung high on the turn and took the lead with Cunningham and Beccali close on his heels. Sears quickly dropped back into last place.
As they started the tenth lap, it was Vennie, Cunningham, and Beccali, with about a yard separating each from the other. As they hit the straightway on the back stretch, Glenn made his bid. He swung around Gene and then pounded Gene's head into the to good. Beccali who finished third in the Olympic behind Jack Lovelock of New Zealand, and Cunningham, tried to catch Gene but it was of no use.

GRANADA
Bill Townsley and Stan Marietta Are Senior Directors
Bill Townley, c37, and Stanley Marietta, c37 have been appointed senior managers of the student committee of the Kansas Relays. Ed Elbel, assistant professor of physical education, announced yesterday. Formerly, there was only one senior manager on this committee, but in the past few years, the extra work placed on this body had made it necessary, so both Townley and Marietta, who have served on the committee for the past three years, were appointed this year.
This committee, composed entirely of students, does nearly all of the actual work preliminary to the Relays, such as the sending out of invitations, and recording entree, and it also prepares the Relays program. Six freshmen take part in the committee, and from this number, four sophomores are picked. The next year, two of the sophomores are appointed to serve as junior members, and the juniors then become the senior managers. Grant Coward sweeps James Giblin College; the juniors then select the sophomores have not yet been chosen. Those eligible are Harry Brown, c'40, Charles Tewson, c'39, Walt Sutton, c'39, Clove Holden, c'40, Lawrence
