Jayhawks to Play Final Court Game Against Tiger Foe
Missouri Must Beat Kansas Tonight to Gain Undisputed Second Position
The Jayhawk basketball team will wind up in a game against the Missouri Tigers, starting at 7:30. Kansas has the championship now, but Missouri must use the opportunity, if possible, to gain undisputed possession of second place. If she loses Oklahoma and the Tigers will be tied for the position.
Missouri may also avenge the only defeat they have suffered on their home court since it was dedicated. Kansas won that game 27 to 25. The Jayhawks have almost a perfect record to protect tonight with only one loss this season.
Gift to Cunningham
At half-time Glenn Cunningham will be presented with a gift from Lawrence and University friends by Glenn E Charlton, president of the Kansas Relays Club.
Ray Ebling, forward, is at present leading scorer in the Big Six for this season with 112 points in nine games. He stands a good chance of setting a new All-time Big Six record over Tom Churchill of Oklahoma, who make 124 points in 1929, the first year of the conference. Leaders of other years are: 1930, MacClay, Nebraska, with 113 points; 1931, Roadac, Iowa State, 90 points; 1932, O'Leary, Kansas and Cooper, Missouri, tied with 110 points; and last year Wagner, Missouri, with 114 points.

Small Audience Reacts Favorably to Dancers
Despite the large stage, which detracted in a measure from the effectiveness of some of the numbers, although at the same time allowing for more freedom of expression by the dancers, the crisp excellence of the portrayals combined with the colorful lighting, costumes, and music to make them especially interesting to those who are interested in artisanal dancing.
A rather small audience was treated to an interesting and varied program in the Concert of the Dance presented by a Kansas City group under the direction of Ruth Glover in the University auditorium last night.
Excellence of Portrayals Shown Throughout Performance
By Elliott Penner
There were no two numbers alike in style and presentation. Among the most interesting were the "Flight," "Pastels," and "Sea Fantasys" portrayals. In the latter, the work of Berli Bridle as a sea nymph with beautiful hair, arising out of the waves (expressed by the moving arms of the other dancers) garlanded with seawed was graceful and imaginative in the soft blue light.
The two solo舞 by the director were entirely different from each other and from the rest of the program. "Dream Flower" might have been a poppy, swaying in a sudden breeze, then awakening to life, only to drop and fold again into the bud. "In the Shadows" was a study of fear of darkness, or of life, perhaps, in which the artist portrayed the idea that fear is the block which hinders the achievement of happiness as it passes by, all the while searching for joy, "with a broken cry."
The most colorful numbers were "Manhattan" and "Spanish Impression." In the first named dance, the purple costumes, with red dance, silly sleeves, whirled before a background of moving, colored spot lights in what might have been entitled "Impressions after a cocktail party." "Spanish Impression" showed what could be done with a Spanish dance by dancers who were able to keep it from becoming a "hoochie-cooch."
"Jubilee" epitomized the "Juba Dance" of R. Nathalan Dett, favorite of all country bands until the past decade. It was the only number in which the band let themselves go in an expressive set abandoned freedom of movement.
Michigan State Date Set
Even for those who do not understand or are not particularly interested in artistic dancing, the program seemed to be entertaining and amusing.
A reutern grid game with Michigan State, at East Lansing, Oct. 12, 1935, was announced today by Dr. F. C. Allen, director of athletics at the University of Kansas. Michigan State comes to Lawrence as part of the two-game series Nov. 24, 1934.
Allen Announces Return Game Will Be
Played Oct. 12, 1935
According to local police authorities, Samuel Johnson, who stole a sack of coal worth about 50 cents from the University last Saturday, was sentenced this morning to a 20 day term in the county jail with a fine of $50 attached. The complaint was signed by W. J. Cummings, chief of police.
The game with Notre Dame, arranged with Jess Harper just before he re-infused control of athletics there, will be played at South Bend, Sept. 28, 1935. Both these dates were set but they precede the regular conference dates.
Coal Thief Sentenced
Conference football dates for 1935 and 1935 are expected to be set by the directors of athletics and coaches when they meet. The date of the outdoor track must in May.
Pi Mu Epsilon Meets
A meeting of Pi Mu Epsilon, honorary mathematics fraternity, was held yesterday afternoon at 4:30. Daniel P. Johnson spoke on "Dirac's Mathematics of Physical States and Observations." Refreshments were served by the social committee after the meeting.
Famed Quartet to Entertain
NUMBER 104
Selections From Mozart, Haydn, and Beethoven to Be Played
The Roth string quartet will appear Thursday evening in a concert at the University auditorium, at 8.20. The quartet, considered one of the greatest in America, plays many of the compositions written by its contemporaries. One has been achieved by their playing of Mozart, Haydn, and Beethoven.
Four young Hungarian artists compose the quartet. At the concert which introduced them to America, a string snapped on one of the instruments. The other three musicians continued playing while the one with the broken string replaced it. They then continued playing until they were forced into the group and their ability to overcome vexious details is evidenced by this small accident.
Students may now exchange their activity ticket coupons at the Fine Arts office for concert course tickets to the concert.

Stockton to Give Instructions on Interviews for Jobs

Raymond Nichols Lists Numerous CSEP Jobs
Names Group of Various Positions Occupied by Students
Literally scores of different jobs are being carried on at the University by the 550 students employed under the federal grant for student employment, according to Raymond Nichols, executive secretary to the Chancellor, and assigned to handling details of the student employment project.
In no case was a student on the federal project assigned to duties already being preformed, and thus it has been possible to promote a large number of campus activities that have had to fall behind in recent years. Without making any effort to arrange the projects in any particular order, Mr. Nichols listed these as among the activities of students on federal jobs:
Clerical assistants in numerous offices on the campus.
Repairing of apparatus and equipment for laboratories.
Assistant librarians.
Bibliographical assistants in the bureau of governmental research.
Artists (for making charts for research problems.)
Book repairers, especially for the law library.
Cabin-makers, to provide display space for entomology department.
Assistants in departments of botany and entomology, classifying and displaying hundreds of collected specimens.
Assistants to prepare exhibit material for museums of paleontology, geology, and mammology.
Dish-washers, in special laboratories. Greenhouse gardeners, for departments of botany and pharmacy.
Printers, painters, and recording clerk.
Night supervisors for music and drafting class rooms.
Elevator operators at Bell Memorial Hospital, Kansas City, during visiting hours.
Model maker, for department of mathematics.
In some cases, the student assistance relieves a faculty member of detail labor, but in many, the student's work represents a clearing up of work long accumulated, as for example, the filing of clippings from the University Daily Kansan, in the department of journalism.
The file goes back 12 to 15 years, but at some points, where the assistance was not of the best, filing was lax. This is now being corrected, with a complete and adequate file for use by the student reporters.

Leaving the motor of his car running and the door open, Charles A. Dearordor, Jr, 21, former student at the University, leaped from the Kaw river bridge at approximately 1 o'clock yesterday morning in a successful suicide attempt.
