--since the play is ready for production, and is such a different type play from any that has been attempted recently in this part of the country, the teacher should feel that the visiting teachers should be given an opportunity to see it.

Back to the Rally. . Gertie the Harpo, . High School Harry Van Cleave, . Maybe the Students Should Teach Spelling. . A Doggone Slip Up. . In Defense of the Union. . Back to Action. . Jumbled Headlines Lead to Lee. .
Sorry we passed up the rally yesterday, because it was something different. A rumor was started that the whistle had blown to notify the students that Germany had declared war on Russia, which naturally had some of the older boys on the campus getting ready to leave for part unknown. No one could help hoping that the car and big horn owned by Clide Nichols would telescope or be demolished completely. Whose idea was this rainy;
Maybe this should come under thoughts while strolling: A group of about 15 people met in campus and one of the group saw Gertie Field. She remarked how much Gertie looked like one of the four Marxists and a field in a Field in the lightmelight around her.
What's happened to Tom Van Clever's social power? Saturday night, or was it Friday; he took a sophomore oath. The girl who played the role of The Girl is the sister of the famous Pi Phi Joukens, but Tom isn't musically inclined, so maybe he's not on the radio.
A professor in the business school made three attempts before he spelled criminal correctly. Hope he doesn't teach Business Law.
Last summer the talk of the campus was a cooker spatiel pop owned by the university. He hided it Hill yesterday, and we can only say that the dog WAS a cooker spatiel.
Bil Cochran is enrolled in the Law School. Maybe he can carry on for himself this year—unless Sutton finds another technicality.
It too bad the Pachacammas didn't put Clet Mice on the tie for freshness because he was surreasted of the Phil Deltz agreeing on the man, and that's something for them. Now the new independent party comes with a different set of expectations they are by P.S.L. proteges.

Freshman Women To Elect Officers For Class Today
Two Candidates Selecte
Will Serve on W.S.G.A.
Council and Vote
On All Plans
Freshman women will elect the vice president and secretary of their class today. The newly elected officers will belong to the Women's Self Gov't administration council, and will have a vote in all the measures taken up by that group.
This year the candidates were named from the floor at a mass meeting, rather than by the presentation of petitions to the voters. The candidate had to file a petition with the signatures of 10 or 15 women, eligible to vote for the office for which the candidate was running. This system was not changed, to make nominations easier.
The proportional representation system of voting will be used for the first time in a freshman election. The ballots are marked according to the first, second and third choices. If the candidate who receives the largest number of votes does not attain a majority, the votes of the candidate with the smallest number of votes chosen should be the second choice which has been indicated on them.
This process is continued until one of the candidates receives a majority. The council adopted this plan last spring in order to do away with combines, as the outcome of the election cannot be predicted.
Freshman women are to vote on the second floor of the central Administrators' office during the day. The council members of the W.S.G.A. will be in charge of the election.
The nominees for vice president are:
Eleonor Murray, Elizabeth Kemp, June
Kirkham, Mary Markham, Elizabeth
Giraldi, Griffin and Dorothy Jane
Willecus.
The candidates for secretary are Selma Hemsl, Mary K. Frith, Roberts Cook, Dorothy Werner, Margaret Jansen, Maria Beverley, and Mary Louise Kanaga.

ATTENDANCE AT MID-WEEK
Attendance at the regular mid-week

Gen. Hugh Johnson, Former NRA Chief, Lectures Tonight
General Hugh S. Johnson will speak this evening at 8:30 o'clock in the University and/orium on "Government and Education" at the Association of the University Community Lecture series. In his lecture, he will discuss the UPA and other governmental activities.
Questions Concerning New Deal Will Be Discussed After Main Topic of Evening
In addition to his lecture, Gen. Johnson will attempt to give gift certificates to students in his courses. Several students and faculty members have submitted questions, and it is probably that these questions are the ones he responds to.
Since an opportunity of this kind is very infrequent, there probably will be many who have queries to propound. Some of the questions may be regarding General Johnson's interpretation of the inter-state situation.
Since General Johnson's resignation from the NRA, he has been connected with the WPA in New York City. General Johnson has done remarkable work on the film *Tombstone* for New York. He is well informed on the governmental activities of today, and his lecture promises to be very interesting.
Reserved seats for the lecture sell for 75 cents and general admission tickets will admit all university students.
Perhaps he will be asked about the Wagner Labor bill, or what is meant by the term "invasion of war." Someone undoubtedly will want to know why the General thinks the WPA is economically unbound. Boo-dogging and the dole of the present administration are questions to be asked. Many will want to know his ideas on sound money, and questions concerning the New Deal will be among the more important questions.
Nominations Close Tonight
Nominations for men's freshman class offices will be received until midnight tonight, according to Paul Wilbert, secretary of the university committee on elections. At the present time it appears that only two sets of nominies will be offered, as Horb Szizore, secretary of the M.S.C., says he has received no independent nomina-

Wilbert said that any candidate may present a petition if he is a freshman and the mayor will accept it. They are to be turned in to Size-more before midnight tonight. The men's election will be held next Thursday. The mayor will preside over the vice president and secretary today.
The Pachacamacs Tuesday night nominated Phil Buzick to head their ticket, with Dick Newlin running for treasurer and Proctor Ritchie and Run Woods seeking the posts of freshman dance managers. The newly formed non-fraerity organization will select its nominees tonight at a mass meeting in the gymnasium, where they'll build at 7 p.m. The Progressive Student Government League announced several weeks ago that it would not enlist in this election.

Sophisticated Sour Owl To Circulate Tomorrow
New Magazine Has Many Unusual Features
to Offer
The second issue of the Sour Owl, humor publication of the University of Kansas, is scheduled to appear on the Hill, tomorrow. This title, titled The Sophistication number, attempts to live up to its theme topic.
Included in the magazine will be *flirting* gossip columns and the equal, usual jokes which, according to the Sour Owl editor, are unusual. New features included for the first time will be a Fashion page for women; a new movie review column; and a page devoted entirely to colored students.
This new idea of a page for colored students exclusively is being given a trial by Joe Pryor, editor of the Owl. A third edition has been continued of the feature. John Wiley, colored student and a member of Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity, has been selected to write the page. It is to be carried on the manner of a regular gossip column.
Pryor states, "This column for colored students gives representation to a hitherto unrepresented section of the student body."
Stories expected to prove of interest to the readers are scattered through the books. "The Nets" is an interesting sideline on what happens when the women's fashion editor tries to write up men's fashion guide. A new manner which also uses for women.
"Variatorium" should please those who attend the variations and mid-week lectures on the art of sculpture in a parody on Walter Winchell and his column, might cause a few curses or smiles. The Sophisticated Lady of page numbering surround whom the magazine is built.

Famous Violinist Inspires Audience At First Concert
Fritz Kreisler Plays for One of Largest Crowds in History of University
Auditorium Filled to Capacity
All the seats in the Auditorium were filled by 8.15, and by 8.20, five minutes before Kreisler appeared, the overflow seat on the stage were taken. After the first number, the people who in were forced to stand in the aisles.
The concert was the first appearance of Kreisler at the University and gave the audiences a chance to bear one of the world's truly great musicians.
Kritze Kreisel, the world's most fam- olious violinist, played last night before one of the most attentive crowds ever assembled in the University Auditor- ion, listening to the wires were held spellbound by the music from Kritisel's violin.
Kreisler's musical career began at the age of seven, when he played in his first concert. His Viura audience was made up of a few students was made in his case to enable him to enter the Vienna Conservatory, where the entrance age was 14. At the age of 10, after three years of study, he received the Premier Prize de Rome.
Toured With Rosenthal
He returned to Vienna, and, with the famous pianist, Moritz Roeschental, went on his first tour. The concerts he gave on this tour in America were very successful. At the close of the tour, Kreisler gave up violin-playing completely to study to become a physician, which was interrupted by his military service.
Soon after this service, he made several appearances, but was not satisfied with the way he proceeded. His return debut in Berlin, and from that time on was recognized as the most successful player.
Famous Guarrierius Violin Used
At his recital last night, Kreisler
used his famous Guarrierius violin.
As one might expect, he has a large col-
lection of guarrierius, including the Stra-
divarius, a Galliagen, and two violins
of Joseph Guarrierius del Guzo.
These four represent a difference in
kind but hardly in quality, for each
one is a masterpiece. The Guarrierius
violin has the rich old tone so dis-
sonance it makes the violin sound of
the great Joseph, superlative crafts-
man cf the Guarrierius family.
Many of the compositions featured on his program were entirely new this season. The program included: "Sonata, G Minor (The Devil's Trill)," by Tartini; "Sarabande and Gluee" (Parfait); "Concerto," Concerto, A Minor, No. 22, by Vittorio
"Prelude and Allegro," by Kreisler;
"Chaisson Louis XIII Et Pavane," by
Kreisler; "Variations on a Theme
by Corell." by Kreisler.
"Habaner" (Rhapisode Espagnole)
"DeRevel-Kreiser:" La *Fille Aux Cheveux* De Lin," by *Debussy-Hartmann* and "Gaye Curse" by Kreisler.
He gave as encores "Londerry-dorry Air," by Granger, "Schon Rosmarin," and "Liebesrand," both composed by Mr. Kreisler himself.
