'Sauce for the Gander' Cast Holds Rehearsal
Contest
Comedy Is First Winner of State Playwright
One scene in the first act is said to be one of the fanciest seen in Fraser theater. This scene depicts the rehearsal of a play written by a banker's wife, a group of 'home-talent' actors. The actor's play is on the home of the play.
Extensive rehearsals are being held every night by the Kansas Players in preparation for their presentation of 'Sauce for the Gandur' in Fraser then preceded March 20. The play, which is a three-hour drama, is being directed by Frances Wilson.
Farrell Strawn, who made a mark in the "yes man" in the W. S. G. A. musical comedy and scored a success in "Happy Landings", is largely responsible for a let of the fun in this particular scene of "Sauce for the Gander". Strawn has the part of Mr. Crotter who man produces thunder that knockouts, footsteps, and baby cries for the home-talent.
Another number of the cast who aids in producing laughs in this scene is Betty Shirk, who although a newscomer to the ranks of Kansas Players, has already scored with theater-goers and is dancing in the Tau Sigma recital.

Laurel Allen, as the gigging young wife who says that no woman should give up a career merely to play pinch games, and as the traveling safeman who has to attend the rehearsal, Phyllis Swarner, as the harassed author and director of the home-talent play; Ronald Stewart, as the actress whose role is the part of a two-timing oil-magnate; and Jessica Crafton, as the promptress who prompts and directs at the wrong moments are the others in the play, make it one of the funniest in the play.

Cunningham Set for Last Indoor Race With Venzke
Track Meet Sponsored by Knights of Columbus to Feature Star Athletes
BAUSCH WILL COMPETE
Coming to an end Wednesday night at Madison Square Garden, the indoor track season will again feature the renewal of the Cunningham-Venice duel in the Knights of Columbus track meet. About this race centers the chief interest of a crowd expected to numb at home, and will tour out to witness the last of one of the most illusorious campaigns in the annuals of sport.
Concerning the events to take place in the meet, Arthur J. Daily, of the New York Times, says: "Formost among these is the Venkee-Cunningham duel in the famous Columbian mile, a classic struggle that will take precedence over such tests as the Met-Cluskey-Keney two-mile Spitz-Spencer high jump encounter, the Adams-McCaffery engagement in the Casey 690, and the Bausch-Beringer septapath clash."
Among the field is Glen Dawson of Oklahoma, nationally known runner, who will protect his title in the 1,000 meter run.
To date this season Cunningham and Venzke have met three times. Cunningham won the first two races easily but lost the third, a gruelling 1500-meter race in which they finished ahead. Venzke won the Quinquennial winning by inches. Thus the quinquennial in the minds of track followers remains unanswered. Dalley asks, "Will Venzke's use of a four lap sprint at the end again brings in victory or the Kansas circuit that manoeuvre once until the homebreest and then quitting? And when the Jayhawker file spills will he have anything left?"
In preparation for this great race which promises to be one of the most important he has ever run, Cunningham took part in only one event in the Big Six meet last week, so as to be in the best possible shape. A victory would undoubtedly give him the much contested supremacy in this race.
Of Venzeke's recent win over Cunningham, Dalley states, "The big point is that Venzeke's victory very likely has restored to the worlds record holder all the confidence that his Olympic failure took away." This remains to be seen, but at any rate, this promises to be the race of the year.
No Students Ask for Aid
Henry Werner Reports No Absolute Cases of Poverty on Campus
Despite the difficulty students have had in the past week getting checks cashed and obtaining money from home there have been no cases of absolute poverty reported. Although there were numerous notices in the Daily Kansan offering aid to those who were unable to pay their bills, the banking holiday, no one applied to Henry Werner, men's student adviser, for aid of any kind.
"The economic crisis," said Professor Werrer, "has shown us that the students, although not prepared for such action, were able to weather the storm forced upon them by the sudden action of our new president. Now that the banks have begun to open and have become more adept through their fingers, the students will probably be more economical spenders than in the past."
SERIOUS PNEUMONIA CASES OVERRIDE FEAR OF QUAKES
