"Honey!" Entertains Rogers . . . Game Notes Again . . . The Engineer Look at Romance Players Hike Back His Haiti Return . . . Miss K. U, 1936
An interesting story comes from Kansas City in connection with the basketball team's stay at the Hotel Kansas Citan. It seems the girl by the hotel is a bachelor, seeing the store in the men's lounge, seeing the boys boating about the place during the morning, picking her choice of the team as Paul Rogers. She liked him and was also his nickels all morning to put into his gaming device. Paul is a kept man now.
Notes on Saturday's Game: Two K. U. students carrying their shoes at the game, their little piggies sticking out, the girl was a well-known Campus hoofer. Her feet just got tired. It is reported that she and her date walked over to the Philadelphia hotel interested from the number and variety of K. U. students there Saturday. The game between two such sterling teams was the first ever played in Kansas City to have the whole town talking. . . The Globe Oilers were at the Hokie Kansas City stadium, the Oilers are the United States' champions, they could not find tickets for the game, at least free ones.
The engineering "Peeping Tom's" has the time of their lives the other day surveying Potter's lake. Incidentally they had their instruments trained on a boy and girl who were near the lake. The greatest scout at attention was that boy, who is recorded in Engineering School records, was the time one of the boys found out two weeks in advance of the date, that Bette E. Coad and Colleen C. College were going to be married. Those were the days when the engineers had a reader.
The dog that lives at the editor's house heard a male student complaining the other day in a jelly joint that he broke. The editor, who him that he had difficulty getting them cashed, Well, the editor's dog may be believe that, but I say, honey, brother.

Seniors' Pictures Must Be Taken Soon
All seniors are requested to have their pictures taken within the next two weeks, if possible. As yet there is no indication that they have to be in, but Bob Kenyon, business manager of the Jayhawker, stated yesterday that the pictures should be taken right away to prevent the last-minute furloughs of "graphologists" and the Jayhawker office.
Seniors also are asked to come to the Jayhawk office to make a deposit of three dollars, which will include everything toward getting the picture taken and placed in the Jayhawk. At the time of the deposit, the deposit will be given a receipt which he will give when the picture is taken. Kenyon stated, also, that the seniors should be getting their activities in mind, and sign an activity card at the time they deposit the money for the pictures.
The last issue of the *Jayhawk*, which will come out on May 15, will include a new senior senior class, so it is especially urged that all seniors submit their pictures.
Joe Glade Will Appear In 'Carmen' Tomorrow
Opera Attracts Wide Interest Among Townpeople and Students
Great interest is being shown in the grand opera "Carmen" which will be presented tomorrow evening at 8 o'clock in the University auditorium by Co Clade and her Civic-Opera Productions company.
Miss Glade, brilliant contraltio, will portray the role of the gypsy girl for the seventy-fifth time tomorrow evening. She will be assisted by Sydney Rayner, famed诗人 of the Paris Opera Comique, and a host of other well-known stars. The entire production will be under the baton of Isaac Van Grove to supervise the under the supervision of Harriet Lundgren, note Swedish dungeuse.
Brilliant Success
Newspaper articles received yess- day by Dean Swarthout speak of the brilliant success of the company in their recent performance at Minneapolis. The author wrote a Tribune writes: "The entire performance was very much of a surprise for I was under the impression it was a heterogeneous conglomeration making a last desperate effort to keep a dying company." That may be the intention but there is a reason for it. The entire company, and it is of good size, is alert, the chorus sings with spirit, most of the principals are excellent, and the scen- eans always Coe Glade when Carmen is given, and that is reason enough."
Popular Price:
"The future of grand opera in America depends upon the ability of producers to provide the music loving public with the joy and excitement of the person of moderate means." This was a statement made yesterday by Coe Glode in explaining the popular price policy which she considers one of outstanding features of her company.
"Hitherto," Miss Glade said, "Opera has been presented at prices prohibitive to the moderate pursues of a great percentage of the genuine music lovers of America. In making it difficult for this organization to perform its performances of grand opera, the institution of opera was in a fine way to sound its death knell, for it is with this class of people that the future of grand opera, and in fact all serious music and the theater, lie. It is the sincerer hope of my organization that the venture we are making into the presentation followed in the presentation of opera for many years to come."
Dean Swarthout stated yesterday that in his 13 years as concert manager he has not been able to offer to Lawrence and the University a more metropolitan or outstanding attraction than this great company of 100 people created, chorea, and orchestra plus singers of the first reputation as artists.
Outstanding Attraction
Most of the better seats in the cheaper sections are already sold. The top prices of $150 and $2 are less than half the price, and are suited for similar seats in the larger cities.

Deathwatch Post Of Future Wars Will Meet Tonight
Active Campaign of Local Chapter To Be Planned;
Not a Political Football
Deathwatch Post No. 1 of the University of Kansas Veterans of Future Wars will hold its second meeting tomorrow, which is dedicated to the Memorial Union building, intent on assembling its forces to plan a campaign of activities for the next few months.
Political Neutrality
Threatened for a time with beaconism, a political football, the Vets' organization has gained a position of neutrality as far as Hill parties are concerned. The Pacachamacs, a leader of the endorsement of the "V.F.W." by the Progressive Student Government League, will take over the leadership in the endorsement of the future doughballs. Rumors that the new organization would enter its own slate of candidates in the coming men's election were discured by leaders of the movement last night.
Pending the adoption of a definite platform and program at tonight's meeting, the Veteran leaders were rather uncommunicative yesterday regarding their plans, but hinted that they were considering demands for a larger bonus to C. M. members of the V.F.W., who will be among the first in the trenches.
Women Invited
Tonight's mobilization will be important for women student sympathizers as well as the males. Members will be taken into the subsidiary organization of the Home Fires Division for future mothers of male children and future wives of Veterans of Future Wars as well as in the principal division of the chapter. A $20-per-month pension for mothers is demanded for these women who will suffer no less than the men in the coming strike.
The organization also wishes to make it clear that membership in the Veterans of Future Wars is not limited in any manner to University students. Since the next war will make no distinction between all men and women between the ages of 18 and 36, who expect to be involved in the next war.
Canuteson Dispels Epidemic Rumors Here
