Shawn the Best in Spite of Critics in the Row in Back . . . Koenig Gets Some Royces . . . A Letter From Buddy . . . Conglom.
Well, we put on our best bib and tucker Wednesday night and took in Ted Shawn and his malenm. To say that the performance was one of the best things we've ever seen is to put the thing much too mildly. We naturally expected just the least bit of femininity but we looked for it in vain. Those fellows would have to live the lives of true believers to even remember their dances let alone execute them. A lady sitting behind us really held forth at great length to a friend her about the interpreter. According to her head should have worn several different costumes in the John Brewster number and then the could have told just what he was trying to portray. "It wasn't the idea that he's trying to interpret something, it's the idea of his grace and the idea that he has something inside of him he wants to let out." Be that as it may, we take our hat off to Mr. Shawn and his associates.
After this, we'll dress for all public occasions just in case the men's glee club might walk in after we get there.
Here's a little note on Royce Rearwinn, one of the Beta boys from a few years ago. We hear that Royce has been tooling up from Salina every now and then to see none other than Winnie Koenig of Pi Beta and Phi. Last week Royce sent me a flattered message so much that she was running around the house telling the girls that he sent her "a dozen roaches."
We hear that George Fry tore downstairs the other day to get his daily letter from Dorothy Foster and found that someone had added a little note to it—might have been something about the meesles, etc. Fry a bit is burned up about the whole affair and now he waits in hiding for the postman every day and jumps out at him before any letter from masty old brothers can get his letter.
As to the value of the Shawn presentation, we're not sure, but one thing is certain—the men have outstripped the women in the aesthetic dance.
At the Westminster "House dinner"
Wednesday night, announcements in
the form of birth cards were presented
to the girls announcing the arrival of a quartette of fish. The weight was questionable, the date was Feb. 25, but the fish have not as yet been named.
Another letter: "Dear Joe: Why do you insist on printing such things about us Betas? I'm not a little dog, but on the contrary quite an eligible bachelor, and what's more my name isn't 'Bray'." "Buddies," she says. "Buddy." Thanks Bud, and the next time you can sleep on the table and we'll scratch your back even.
Conglomerate: Jack Kistler was talking about the early use of coffee on the other day, . . . people used to inhale it for ailments of various kinds, . . . from the sounds of the usual fraternity table, the public hasn't progressed very far yet. . . Bill "Bubl" McElfresh was engaged in class one day writing down the intifits of girls whom he had courted. . . he didn't get beyond 10 though. . . Charley Marshall has the mesaos so he probably didn't get to glad-hand Ted Shawn with the rest of the Sig Ep brothers, nor even ask him if he'd change to Kingsbury. . . he's funny that Ed Ash would serve in the Navy for a good while and then come to school and join the R.O.T.C.

Balances Utilized To Make Building Fund at University
LAWRENCE, KANSAS, FRIDAY, MARCH 1, 1935
Maintenance Is Reduced at Lawrence and Fees Appropriated for Hospital Rent
An appropriations bill incorporating he University budget for the fiscal years beginning July 1, 1953 and July 1, 1956 was introduced Wednesday by the Kansas Senate ways and means committee. A general building bill also was introduced providing for the addition of a building to house the negro ward and dispensary at Bell Memorial Hospital, for a warehouse also to be built at Rosedale, and for completion of repairs on Ypc Museum.
Appropriations for Rosedeale are $170-250 for 1935-36 and $600-250 for 1936-37—a total of $430,500. This includes $100,000 for a warehouse and $150,000 for the negro ward and dispensary. Added to the $150,000 for the ward will be $75,000 taken from hospital fees which have accumulated over the past few years, making $225,000 available for its construction.
The appropriations bill allocates $860,750 for the University at Lawrence each year, and the $46,000 for repairs to Dyche added to the amount of 1953-36, making a total of $906,750 for that year. The total for the two years is $1,767,500. Thirty-two thousand five hundred dollars has been cut from the maintenance fund, and the University was directed to use available balances. No provision is made for the construction of a library entrance nor for repairing it. The new Le-Bouvier is funded by the University. Even though the number of faculty members has increased, the amount for salaries and wages remains the same.
More Funds For Dyche
Increase Budget $161,500
Increase Budget $10,000.
The grand total for the entire University period is $21,980,000. $161,500 more was appropriated in the years 1833-35.
In presenting the general building bill, the ways and means committee condemned the present condition of the nonrepigious and ward which has built an enviable partition, partitions of children, and urged its replacement.
At the clinic and the Negro ward there are frequently as many as 600 persons going through the buildings at one time and the clinical alone furnishes free medical service and advice to approximately 55,000 persons a year.
As part of the appropriations bill, Kansas State was given a total of $1,873,500, a cut of approximately $75,000 from the 1933-34 figure. It also gave $300,000 in the general building bill for a new physics and chemistry building to replace Dennison hall which burned down last year.
A table summarizing the University bill before the Senate follows:

from Goethe, Prof. Fernando Wagner

To Dedicate Games To Browning Oklahoma's final basketball games of the year, the two with Kansas at Norman March 6 and 7, will be dedicated to Bad Browning, star Sooner guard, who will be playing his last games in a Sooner uniform. At this time he is fourth among the Big Six Conference scores with 120 points in 14 games for an average of 8.5 points per game. According to the Oklahoma Daily the Norman boys would like to lick the Jayhawkers once, if not twice. If they do, it would come as a pleasant surprise to them, rather than an accepted occurrence.
Student Court Is Proposed by New Party on Campus
Judicial Body to Try Disciplinary Cases Now Handled by Men's Council
The newly formed Progressive Student Government League, which yesterday proposed nominations of all student officers by a system of open primary elections, has evolved a plan for a student court to succeed the Men's Student Council in its capacity of judging the middemocrats of men students. Charles Anderson announced last night. It advocates the establishment of a jury to decide whether he will be elected by each political party, this body then to select from outside their own number a Chief Justice.
One important function of this body would be the trial of persons charged with election fraud. "It is a well known fact," asserted Anderson, chairman of the league, that the members of the party controlling the Student Council can stuff the ballot boxes without fear. They know that even if they were entrenched, the hearing of the council as to their guilt is a severe formality."
The student court would have, jurisdiction in all other cases now tried by the Men's Student Council, including traffic cases. It would have the same power to punish now exercised by the Council. The court would seek to interpret the constitution of the Men's Student Council impartially, and the Lengue suggests that the men in all-student courts be to vote against the student court, a man must never have held office before.
This is the second of the proposals which the new faction has promised would be forthcoming in its effort to clean up student politics on the hill. It is part of a plan to take control of political activity out of the hands of the small group which the League asserts is supreme.
La Farge Discusses Art
Noted Architect Illustrates Talk With World Scenes
“Few people realize that art is a natural consequence of an attempt to satisfy some human need,” said C. Grant La Farge, famous architect and lecturer, in an address yesterday afternoon in central Administration auditorium. Mr. La Farge, a son of John La Farge, a famous painter, used as his subject, “Architecture, Industrial Arts and Education.”
"Our failing is to regard art as something created to fill museums, to be set apart, discussed, and analyzed. Art must be something which is natural, almost unconscious, and without which we feel lost.
"Architecture comes intimately into the general scheme of art. Buildings are erected to be used, to contribute to the graciousness of living, and are works of art to the extent that they achieve this end."
"The purpose of our schools is to enable men to grapple with and think through the problems confronting them, and to develop freedom. By freedom more mollens, but freedom nourished by the background of culture."
"Too often," Mr. La Farge said, "the arts occupy a unique position in the school curriculum. The tendency frequently seems to be an attempt to learn, figuratively speaking, how many fairs and art can be kept and still survive.
The speaker illustrated his discussion with photographic slides of examples of art from all parts of the world, and in various stages of development, including sculpture, ceramics, and tapestries, in addition to specimens of the new "international" designs for dwelling houses.

JAYHAWKERS LEAVE TO TACKLE MISSOURI
College Editors Vote Against Offensive War
Second Digest Poll Backs Up Peace Attitude of Students
A special poli of college editors indicates the same peace sentiment as shown by students in general in the college peace poll conducted by the Literary Digest. There is perhaps a stronger sentiment for entry into the League of Nations.
The special ballot罢了 malea to 644 college newspapers, the entire college press of America. Only one out of eight editors who received the ballot either filled it out or returned it, while one out of every three students in the ballot asked the same questions as those used in the college student poll.
The poll revealed that the cotton cloth is a stronghold of conservative thought A Florida paper writes that the hope for a new statehood follows the Masin-Dixon line for support.
The majority of college editors who voted, would bear arms in defensive warfare but not in offensive. They also advocated government control of armaments and munitions industries, and the States entering the League of Nations.
Many college editors demand that a special poll of the undergraduate newspapers be extended to include the press of elders.
Two-Piano Recital Monday
Student Activity Tickets Will Admit To Concert March 4
A rich and unusual repertoire is that of Aihk Bartlett and Rae Robertson, the English artists, famous for their two-piano recitals, who will be heard here on March 4 in the University auditorium.
In their repertoire of duets for two pianos in such modern composers' names figure as Arnold Bax, who has dedicated several works to the artists, Edward Burlingame Hill, Leopold Mannes and Germaine Tailleferre. They found the first piece ever written for two spintiles which was written by Giles Farnaby.
Ettel Barthe's lovely and always appropriate platform appearance has often been commented on by music critics. She was asked recently by a reporter to explain the psychology of her wardrobe. "I take my clothes almost as seriously as my music," said Miss Isabella, who planned, my audition and they are finished, I do not have to think of them again, whereas my music must never be neglected."
Both artists studied under Tobias Matthey in London. Since their marriage, and thus the beginning of their work with two pianos, they have been most successful in both Europe and America.
This is the fourth of a series of concerts brought here by the University Concert Course. Student activity tickets will admit.
FORMER STUDENTS GET NEW POSITIONS ON STAR STAFF
John W. Shively, 27, has been promoted to the position of real estate editor of the Kansas City Star. He began reporting on the market desk just after the bank holiday. Mr. Shively's promotion resulted in the hiring of Embree Jallette, 30, to work in the market department.
John Martin, a student in 1932, was formerly on the staff of the Kansas City Times. Now he is with the Associated Press office in Kansas City, Mo. This resulted in the hiring of Albert Huber, another student of the University in 1932 for the Kansas City, Kansas University was formerly of Arkansas City.
J. D. Bowersock, 2a, and Paul Fisher, 2b, reported the Kenamer trial for the Kansas City Star, and one of them reported the Shepard trial in Topeka.

The Jayhawkers and the Tigers, traditional Big Six rivals, clash tonight in the first of a two-game series in Columbia. The week-end will be a critical one for Kansas as a powerful threaten to attack the title hopes.
A squad of ten men will leave with Coaches Dr. Forrest C. Alen and Mike Getto at 8:30 this morning, arriving in Tigertown at about noon. Those who
will go are Ebling, Noble, Knapman, Wells, Gray, Allen, Shafer, Rogers, Oyler, and Wellhausen, the same group in Nebraska and Iowa. State trip, plus Wellhausen whose height may come in handy in the post position.
Coach George Edwards has been kindling his Missouri boys with new fire trucks and will be waiting a long time close by subduing the leading Jayhawkers and possibly depriving them of another Big Six championship. In a statement Wednesday he said he had plans for taking at least one of the games. Missouri will attempt a new offense around Henderson to get out-set from southwestern
OYLER
from Southwestern this semester.
The new star, who has been playing at center, will be moved to forward to be "in" on scoring.
Coach Allen was uncertain yesterday as to his startling line-up, "I cannot be use until I have some idea of
what Edwarda new taceties are, Rogers and Noble will certainly play some time and I may insert either of them at the start." Elbling will start at one forward position and will probably be well-guarded by Jorgenson, Missouri captain, who starts in first place with Missouri in Lawrence early in January. Wells and Gray are certain to start in their regular positions.
Kansas can afford to drop only one of its four remaining games to win the championship for the fifth consecutive title. Both Misei and Oda were last weekend by the Jojolkers in Norman next week, all unpumped to block the way.
