Freshmen to Have Australian Ballot for Their Election
Resolution Providing for Freedom in Campaign Passed by Council Last Night
Final assurance that the freshman election this fall would be held under the Australian ballot plan was given when, after a final reading, the amendment to Bill No. 9 was passed last night by the Men's Student Council. The amendment provides that the same rules under which regular student council elections are conducted should be used for the freshman election.
In an effort to help the freshman class as much freedom as possible in the conducting of its election, the council passed a resolution authorizing the president to appoint a freshman from each political party having a ticket to officiate at the poling places. It also authorizes the appointment of another committee of freshmen to count the ballots for the election committee of the Council. Lloyd Metzler is chairman of the Council committee.
Thursday, Nov. 9, has been set as the date for the election, Kurt Riesen, president of the council announced today. All nominating petitions must be in the hands of Robert Hartley, secretary of the council by Monday, Nov. 6. Pettit and his assistant candidates must contain the signatures of 23 members of the class. The officers to be elected are president, treasurer, and two dance managers.
Activity tickets must be presented at the polling places on the day of the election, Riesen also pointed out. Two booths will be located in the basement of Administration building and one in Marvin hall, and will remain open from 9 until 12:30 in the morning on the day of the election.
The council will support the investigation of the painting done at Manhattan Wednesday night, Riesen declared today, and will take action against the violators of the pact when they are found.

'Russia Is Past Crisis' Raymond Bragg Says
Lancheon Forum Speaker Tells of Progress in Soviet Republic
"Russia has passed her crises and will progress steadily in the future. People of this soviet have changed more than people thought would be possible two years ago," said Raymond Bragg, secretary of the Western Unitarian conference, at the noon luncheon on Thursday, the Memorial Union cafeteria today.
"The Five Year plan is a thing of the past," Mr. Bragg declared, "and, though the country is still confronted with some problems, it is gradually solving them and they will soon be considered history. The Russian achievements are great, for example, the great hydroelectric plant, but the pity of the situation is that many of them are not needed. The achievements however still remain, he added.
Mr. Bragg said that one of the most pressing problems of Russia at present is the agriculture. "Starvation is still prevalent throughout the country, for a three-fold reason: The famine, the military crisis of the east, which calls for the food to be sent to the armies protecting the frontier from the Japanese, and most important, the organization of the agricultural system. There are still the remnants of the old feudal system, the farmer tenant his own land as well as those of the government. Mr. Bragg said that haphazard farming. This condition must be remedied within the next 10 years. But at present the food supply is adequate even if a minimum amount," explained Mr. Bragg.
Mr. Brugg showed how industry in Russia is emerging from its depression. In 1913 industrial conditions were most favorable but slumped off to almost nothing in 1923. By 1923, however, industry had exceeded the 1913 level by a wide margin, he explained.
"The people outgrew the old church and demanded a new one when the Bolshievs gained control. The church was actually not persecuted, but the emotional zeal and drive diverted them to change the form and pattern so it would be possible to live in society. The old church could not live in this new society," the speaker said.
Mr. Brggatt attended the exhibit in Moscow of the 15 years of art of Soviet Russia. He found there that the people were indifferent with the cause than with the individual.
Arrangements have been completed whereby band members who apply at the athletic office will be issued supplementary tickets to football games which are played on the basis of their family, it was announced night at a rehearsal of the band.
"Social realism they can't define, but they are aware that they are realizing values and making the most of them," he said. "What is happening is that the brutal, cruel humanism is emerging from these strange conditions, but the men are strong-willed will ablaze compulch much," Mr. Bragg concluded.
INTER-RACIAL COMMISSION TO HAVE PROGRAM MEET
Inter-racial commission of Y.W.C.A will meet tonight at Henley house from 7 to 8. Yzanda Helfinstine will recr "Prophets" by Kahil Gibran. Special music will be given and refreshments will be served.
Tickets to Band Men
Varsity To Be Barn Dance
Rustic barn decorations will be a feature of the Saturday night varsity, according to Lloyd Lane, varsity dance manager. Bill Phipps band together with Blanche Labow, Red Backburn, and Henry Miller will furnish the music.
Barrie Production Will Be Presented by Kansas Players
Mary Rose' Begins Monday for Five-Night Run; Music Composed by Skilton
The production, "Mary Rose" by Sir James M. Barrie, is one of the most difficult and expensive offered to a University of Kansas audience in a number of years. The Kansas Players will present "Mary Rose" five nights beginning Monday.
The rapid changing of scenes has called for the building of two "wagon stages," which can be changed in about one minutes time. After the scenery had been completed, several rehearsals were necessary to familiarize the stage crew with the process. The role on this play was the highest ever paid for a production here.
Another feature of the presentation will be the music which has been composed especially for the Kansas Players' production by Professor Charles S. Skilton. Professor Skilton has composed not only the "call" music, which is an acoustic composition, but also appropriate music which will preshape each act and suggest its mood.
The play "Mary Rose" is a funicular conception of an old home and the spirit that was said to haunt it. The first act opens with the caretaker showing the house to a young man who has just returned from Australia. Apparently only a prospective renter, he is really one of the family that formerly lived there. While he sits before the fireplace, waiting for a cup of tea, the picture fades to a scene of 30 years before.
"Mary Rose" is only one of many facineal creations by Sir James Matthew Barrie. Among the best known of these are "De Brutus," "A Kiss for Cinderella," and "Peter Pan." The latter is known of all Bairke's works, and the boy who never grew up is almost a real person wherever English is read.
Miss Cora Dolbee, who spoke this afternoon on "Sir James Matthew Barried," told of a May day gift which the author once made to the children of Kensington Gardens. "On the night of April 30" said Miss Dolbee,"the spot where it now stands in the Gardens of the city," wrote May 1, the statue was there, an elf-like figure from an author who is not wholly unlike an elf himself."
Reservations of seats for "Mary Rose," the play to be presented next week by the Kansas Players, is going well, according to Professor Allen Crafton, of the department of speech and dramatic art. Although the play will run for five nights, students who want to use their activity tickets are urged to make reservations early, because of the limited seating capacity of Fraser theater. Reservations for any night may be had with an activity ticket, and are obtainable in the basement of Green hall, or by calling K. U. 174.
Membership Cards Available
The membership cards for the Kansas State Teachers association are available in the education office. Students and faculty members desiring cards should purchase them before Nov. 1.
