A. Gretchaninoff, Russian Pianist, Will Play Tonigh
Composer to Be Assisted by Albert Rappaport, Tenor, and Roy Underwood
ACCOMPANIST IS ILL
Alexandre Gretchaninoff, Russian composer and pianist, and Albert Papapport, tenor, arrived in Lawrence today for their concert in the Administration Auditorium at 8 tonight. Miss Cecilia Rott Rappaport who usually accompanies the men on their concert will be joined by another due to illness. Her place will be taken by Roy Underwood, associate professor of piano.
Rapport will open the program by singing a group of six selections: "The Wounded Birch Tree," "In the Disaster," "Over the Steeple," "Over the Steppe," "Like an Angie Homeward Bending," "My Native Land," and "Bercease." These numbers like many of the other selections were from the company's own company Rapport on the piano.
Pianist Offers Own Compositions
The soles will be followed by a number entitled "Fleeting Thoughts" having eight divisions. In this selection the composer tries to convey to the audience the trend of idle thoughts through his mind. Some of these thoughts are "Early Morni," "A Reproach," and "Nightly." At the end of this group Gretenhaein will also play "Mazarku," a Russian composition.
Another group of tenor solos by Rappaport includes compositions by other musicians such as "Il Mio Teseo" (Mozart), "Ada Dem Wasser Zu Singer" (Schubert), and "The Flower Song from 'Carmen'" (Bizet). The tenor will be accompanied by Professor W. Roberts in the program Rappaport will sing another group of solos and will again be accommodated by Grechannoff.
To Play Two-Piano Number
In one phase of the concert Gretchen-annoff and Underwood will play a two-piano number entitled "Deux Moreaucx" in two parts, "Poeme" and "Cortegue", both of which were written by Gretchenannoff.
Gretcheninoff, who has often been named the "Russian Schubert," with the exception of just one group of numbers, wrote every song which Rappaport plays. The Russian composer and Rappaport have just finished a season with the Chicago Civic Opera and the University is extremely fortunate to be able to attend Gretcheninoff and the terror as our guests.
Because of the small attendances to the concerts when held in the University Auditorium, the Concert committee announced the Gretchenoffin Trio will offer their program from the stage of the Administration Auditorium. The concert after every seat is occupied, no new will be admitted.
Rappaport will complete his phase of the tour by singing his last concert and will play at the other place there he will sail for Europe where another tour is being planned. He will appear in several operas at the State Opera in Vienna and he later plans a performance.

Zangara Receives 80-Year Jail Term for Wild Shooting
Sentence Amounts to Life in Prison for Fantastic Who Would Kill Roosevelt
REGRETS HE MISSED
Miami, Fla. Feb. 20—(UP) Giuseppe Zangara, who fired a wolf of shots at President-elect Roosevelt and was sorry he failed to kill him, was sentenced to 80 years imprisonment to day.
Zangara, who had told from the witness stand how and why he attempted to assassinate Mr. Roosevelt, was sentenced to 20 years imprisonment, the maximum on each of four counts of assault. The prisoner cally pleaded guilty to each count as the prosecutor went down the list of four, including one involving the president-elect, and another involving a defense stand said he was ready to go to the electric chair if the judge wanted to send him there.
The judge then recounted the list of charges, sentencing the little, unemployed bricklayer to 20 years on each of the four counts. The sentences will run consecutively, the judge said, making the sentence equivalent to a life sentence. "I was told," Zangars tried to smile, "it is fair" he said, "I am satisfied."
The judge replied, "There may be some more later." Towering deputies pulled Zangara away and led him up of the room. He laughed loudly, almost shouting, and walked through the rear door of the court room and taken up to his jail cell.
Miami, Feb. 23—(UP) Marco Anton Cermice made the statement through James J. Bowler, when advised today that sentence had been imposed on Zangara：“They certainly mete out justice mighty fast in this state. If the law was enforced as it is now, we have a great tendency to reduce crime.”

Motion Ficture Dramas Offered as New Course
Oread Training School to Conduct Study of Cinemas
The same careful study that is ordinarily given to the spoken drama is to be accorded a selected list of modern motion picture dramas by the junior English class of Oread Training School this semester. The study course is under the immediate direction of Harold Minnewater, assistant instructor in education at Dean R. A. Schweiger and assistance of Dean R. A. Schweiger of the School of Education.
That the modern motion picture is more than a pastime, and that motion picture drama may contain material of real literary value, was suggested by the National Council of Teachers of English. Studies such as are now to be undertaken by Oralc Training School in New York have been started in several places in the East. The one here is the first in the middle west.
Mr. Minnifer has a class of 30, who are to view a series of pictures through the co-operation of S. E. Schwan, manager of the Patee theater. It is intended that the students shall make a careful study of each picture viewed, and examine it as to the technical qualities of the technical character of the production.
One worksheet filled out by the student has 14 points, covering nature of the picture, its fundamental conflict, leading characters and their motives, and the student's opinion as to the best response to the scene that *it* _have been omitted_
Another worksheet rates in five divisions, ten different phases in the study of a picture. For example, under "social value" a picture would be rated higher than "harmful," "harmless," plus one if "wholesome," plus two if "commandable," and plus three if "inspiring to high ideals." In the same way, the five ratings from negative to plus three are given for the theme, characterization dialogue, voice, and work of the director, pictorial composition, and the spectator's enjoyment.

It Would Have Been "Pie' for Cunningham Back in Early Dav
"The mile run was won by W. G Raymond in 6:41."
The timing is correct, but the event is not recent. The item is from the late September 16, 1578, and is part of the report of an impromptu field meet that some of the men, of the then young Univer- sity, attended the previous Saturday at Akers track.
The winner of the mile run was a junior in the civil engineering course from 1877 to 1880, but did not receive a scholarship and a few years ago at Iowa City, Iowa.
EIGHTEENTH AMENDMENT IS UP TO STATES

Placing third was F. L. Webster, in 7:32. Webster was long a resident of Denver four was t. Dwight Thacher in 8:12. Webster is pretty fair two-mile time these days. Other events that day included a one-mile walk and a five mile walk, for which the faithful newspaper man years ago kept the time for each mile.
The one-mile event was won in 9:58 by L. L. Dyche, later professor of pathology at the University, and Dr. Dyche the Dyche natural history museum.
W. H. Simpson now with the advertiser department of the Santa Fe railroad, won the five-mile walk in 56:40,covering his last mile in 10:35. W M. Thacher, now a lawyer at Austin, Nev.,did his five miles in 10:35, and G. C. Smith required 61:20, his pace lagging mile by mile.

Allen Lauds Sportsmanship
Kansas Coach Praises Way Crowd Carried Out No-Booing Campaign
Peruvians Want War
Lima, Peru. Feb. 20.—(UAP) Crowds parading in the streets of Lima and Calillo today reflected increasing population in Málaga onbia after President Luis M. Sanchez Cerro declared in a speech that "It is time to repulse force with force." The government issued a decree for increased military presence in civilians between 21 and 25 years of age.
Strong in his praise of the co-operation shown by students and townpeople in the no-boosting campaign inaugurated in the basketball game Saturday night, Dr. F. C. Allen said that the result of this first move against impulse demonstrations here showed the small amount of boos hanged here in the crowd, only the result of thoughtlessness and not a habit with Kansas crowds.
The fact that more fouls were made by the home team and called by the referee than by Iowa State shows that the crowd in not booing can appreciate that the home boys can be in the middle of a game, the captors and that Kansas crowds, like the players, can show sportsmanship at an athletic contest, Dr. Allen said.
"I want to thank students and townspeople for their help in making our team stronger," Dr. Allen said today. "The movement spreads throughout the Big Six conference and to other conferences, with a great benefit to the game of basketball."

Prohibition Repeal Approved in House by 289-121 Margin
Republicans and Democrats Unite to Follow Action Taken by Senate
RECEIVES HUGE CHEER
Washington, Feb. 20. —(UP) The House today approved repeal of the Eighteenth Amendment. The action sends the prohibition issue back to the states for ratification or rejection of repeal. The voice was 283 to 121.
Presidential approval is not required for submitting the proposed new amendment to the states, but 38 of the 42 amendments under amendment before it becomes effective.
More than the necessary two-thirds vote was mustered in the house as the Blaine repeal resolution, passed last week in the senate, was driven through to victory by a coalition of Republican and Democrat wets.
Under the terms of the resolution, congressional action will result in the equivalent of a great national referendum on the controversial question. Each state must summon specially appointed state senators who will pass on the proposed amendment.
Anti-prohibitionists, while jubilant at the action, realize they are just embarking on a bitter struggle to ratification. Thirteen states can block ratification either by an unfavorable vote or failure to act.
As Speaker Garner announced the vote, the House garner into a roar of applause. Despite the strict rules of the House against demonstrations from the gallery, the cheer was re-echoed in the gallery.
