too school-boyish at first, but he was entirely convincing before he had been on the stage three minutes.
Albert Evans gives a bluff virility to his short part and with Mr. Calderwood set the masculine tempo of the play at the beginning. Kenneth Kell, Robert Haig, Robert Cunningham, Millard Laing, and George Lerrigo successfully pass in review; although where Laing got that German bow is a mystery. It is a wonder that he didn't fall on his face.
But the boy who really got the job across with the audience was Harold Grase. In the part of the cook whose porridge was lumpy and whose tea tasted of onions ("which have a habit of cropping up"), he was the foil for the entire cast. Upon him developed most of the comedy, but never did he appear weak or foolish. He had a swell part and he did a swell job. Ask anyone who was there.
Robert Haug is to be commended for the lighting and sound effects, as is Allen Crafton for the set. The latter was probably the most effective of the year. And the leaving of lighted cigarette on the table, and snuffing the candles gave a realistic smoky touch to the picture that made you forget that you were sitting in a theater. It was a good show.

The senior class met this morning. Howard Hoover, president, presided with precision and dispatch, despite concentrated heckling from his colleagues from Blake hall. Chancellor Lindley talked rather entertainingly. Fred Ellsworth made a futile but interesting appeal for funds for the Alumni association. Ed Sharpe had a perfectly good motion rejected chiefly through the vociferous "Nose" of some leather-lunged lawyers. Harold Harding received the plaudits of nearly the entire class for a well-phrased suggestion. And everybody had fun.
Playing This Week?
Bob Wallace sat through the meeting looking around at the members of the senior class and toward the end of the session remarked: "The fancy dolls all get weeded out before they get to be seniors, don't they?"
Fred Ellsworth came through with some encouragement but startling information. He said that from reports received at the alumni office, 251 students graduated last year are known to have procured jobs, and a conservative estimate on the total employment among members of last year's graduating class would be around 80 per cent.
The Chancellor said that anybody is a liar who says that a person's college days are the "golden days of his life." For, says Mr. Lindley, if a person gets

Kansas 'Buddy' Finally Re-Imbursed For 'Tooting His Own Horn'in War
Washington, May L. (UP)—Justice held a tardy rendezvous with Willard B. Hall, Parsons, Kan., who is about to receive from the United States government a check for $75 in full compensation for destruction of his slide trombone.
Hall is an unusing hero of the World War. You can tell but what he and his slide trombone turned the tide of battle against the Central Powers, although Hall never got any closer to no man's land than the bandstand at Ft. Scott, Ken?
When Hall signed up with the First Kansas infantry band in July, 1817, things certainly looked dark for the Allies. And in the length and breadth of America the army could not find a slide trombone for Hall to toot.
Seeing as how this was the war to end war, Hall came to a gentleman's agreement with Gen. Wilder S. Metcalf, Lawrence Kan. Hall agreed to use his own slide trombone. General Metcalf is in khalf of the United States
Mectan, in benign or the United States of America, promised either to reimburse him for same or to requisition a slide trombone from the army.
Occasionally Hall would remind the American high command about the slide trombone agreement, but they regrettedly told him there wasn't a slide trombone available. "Toot your own horn," was the gist of the orders he received from his superiors.
Came peace, and Hall's trombone was a wreck—a tragic, twisted piece of metal on the altar of patriotism.
Hall buckled down to 15 years of
what he should out of college, he is prepared for a better existence when he gets out than he had while he was in.
According to an announcement made by Howard Hoover, the graduating seniors are going to smoke corn cob pipes and eat strawberries and cream at the senior breakfast.
It was a fine meeting. Gave you a legitimate excuse to cut a dull class, and proved conclusively that in the matter of making speeches the boys from the college are not even in the running when compared with the lawyers.
To Address Pharmacy Schools Warren S. Wilson, vice-president of the snowden-Mize Drug company of Atchison will address the weekly colloquy of the pharmacy school Thursday morning at 11:30.
letter writing to the government, in re: one slide trombone. He wrote to his congressman, to his senator, Controller-general J. R. McCear, to the army engineers, and to the adjutant general. Countless bills authorizing payment of $75 to Hall for a new slide trombone were born and died.
"my slide trombone cost me $125,
complete with case," Hall wrote to McCarl as late as March 3, 1930, "and after using it 22 months, the way we had to use our instruments, it was worn out.
I am only asking $75 for slide trombone and you can see what I lost by having to use my own instrument."
McCarl replied that the government didn't owe Hall anything.
On March 15, 1934, more by accident than pre-arrangement, a bill authorizing payment of $75 to Hall passed the house. Now the senate has approved it and even as these lines were written the bill was speeding toward the White House for President Roosevelt's signature.
