The University Players from the University of Wichita presented "The Late Christopher Bean," a three-act comedy, to two well-filed houses hereday yesterday and evening.
Critical Student Audience Enthusiastic Over Comedy Given by Wichita Players
This play, which has been popular both on stage and screen, was the story of a country doctor, (expertly played by Ralph Harding), who has a social climbing wife (Ernestine Briles), a catty daughter (Loneta Brown), and another daughter, a charming girl (Betty Neely).
The family finds itself almost in possession of a fortune because of their charity to a drunken painter (Christopher Bean) ten years ago. But Abby, their hired girl (Vera Seter who gave the outstanding performance of the painting "Fairy Tale") and art dealers and collectors are willing to buy at fabulous prices. Cliff Hunt, Jr., E. Leon Watkins, and Carl D. England played the parts of the fawning forger, ruthless dealer, and art critic, respectively. Warren Creamer, house painter and hopeful artist (played by Stanley Diamond) woos successfully the doctor's daughter. The play works itself with its vividness and the session of the famous pictures, and the curtain goes down with Abby the hired girl revealed as the widow of the renowned artist and the rightful receiver of the piles of money.
"The Late Christopher Bean" was presented in exchange for the recent performance of "Olympia" by the Kansas Players.

Building Employees Heac
Opens Elevator Fight
in New York City
Walkout
New York, March 5—(UP)—The order went out from elevator strike headquarters tonight to tie up every building in town" that had not signed a union contract.
It marked the end of arbitration and the start of a tooth and claw fight. Strikers unlosed all their power in an attempt to beat down the owners of New York's apartment houses and hotels.
Just after he issued the order to "give them the works," James J. Bambrick, head of the New York Building Department, to a judge in office of District Attorney William C. Dodge, to explain what he meant when he threatened to "tear down the town and fight it out in the streets." With respect to his presidency of the international union.
"Nobody is going to create disorder while I am district attorney," Dodge said.
More Sections Pulled
Bambrick and Scalise were not under arrest nor had any warrant been issued for them.
Bambrick "pulled" two more section of Manhattan—part of town which has not yet felt the strike. Elevator operator and maintenance workers were ordered out immediately.
Tomorrow Bambrick will "pull" the Grand Central zone.
Tonight the tide seemed to be running against the men who own and operate the towers of New York. Even the weather was unfavorable for them. Snow began falling and freezing weather was predicted. One day in untreated offices and offices will do more than hours of speeches and threats.

The "Arkissan" mountaineer who never wore shoes until the age of thirty has nothing on the University track team who will enter the lists of battle at the University of Missouri sans pants and footwear.

Dill, the ear of the newsman, heard the report from the Tatler and told Forest Allen about the boy's trouble.

"Your first task in school is to get your education, but just as far as you can, it's the curricular activities—work on your engineering paper, debate, and do other things. Thus you will expand your course and increase your general training."
"After you have left school, you should join the engineering society in your town; you should learn to speak on your feet for an engineer, however, not only as a student but also deeply and convincingly his plans to board directors and city councils."
Mr. Hawson related several instances of young engineers who, by writing about new methods they had found useful had attracted attention of superiors, and had won promotions for themhemselves. Ms. Hawson was one of former Kansas students who are now in Chicago; two at least on the staff of his paper.
