TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 8, 1932 YOU MUST VOTE The polls will be open only a few hours longer today, and as an American citizen with an eye on the welfare of the nation; you must not fail to vote. This election shapes up as one of the most critical in the history of this nation. The issues have been reviewed many times in the press, and the candidates for the presidency have outlined their policies over the radio and through the newspapers. If you believe the re-election of Herbert Hoover will be the best thing for the country vote for him; if you believe Franklin D. Rosevelt is needed in the White House —try to put him there by giving him your vote. If you sincerely side with Socialist Norman Thomas—lead him your support. But above all, take advantage of the few hours left and vote for your choice. It is a and commentary on American intelligence that it generally is the faction with an ae to grind that is at the polls en masse, not the ordinary citizen. Only the ordinary citizen, the "great middle class," can bring about honest elections. And he is too often occupied with other things. OLD SNOW IS BIDDING ADIEU The once vince-covered magnificent structure —Old Snow Hall— clothed with the richness of nature herself, has been robbed of her rich apparel, and now stands lonely and forsaken on Mount Oread. Like a deserted cattle of ancient knighthood, it stands in its solitude, daily watching the "college knights" pass by, who scarcely notice its existence. Age has overtaken the historical old character, and now like a personality of the past, it stands a solitary unit on Mount Oread, waiting only to be taken away from the new and modern structure erected to take its place. No longer can it offer its service to students and faculty; it must admit that Old Snow with all its glory is counted among those of the past. Within its massive walls, once classes were conducted and history was made. Through its stately front doors that now show the effect of many winters, students of the past have entered to gain knowledge. But the dusk of life for Old Snow is fast approaching. The new environment is crowding the age-streken old structure from the scene. No more are her services needed; it has served many who have come to Mount Oread and gone from it. Soon the workmen will tear it down. Old Snow is bidding us adieu. UTOPIA! HURRAH! Real estate brokers say there is a pronounced back-to-the-farm movement in the rural sections of the Ozarks. People who formerly were eager to leave the farms are now as eager to return to them, because they see a chance there to earn at least their bread and butter. Most of these people are undertaking only ten or fifteen acres and so may now be more willing and satisfied with farm life. Does this movement mean that the big farmer is doomed and that eventually everyone will become his own producer, raising just enough to satisfy his own needs? If it does, then perhaps here is just the solution for which we have been looking. Rousseau always had an idea that Nature could solve the problem. "The end of the depression for people with money invested in homes is near at hand," says the president of the United States Building and Home League. At least the end is near if the mortgageers see fit to foreclose. One of the departmental clubs at the University recently guard a debate on the extremely vital subject, "Resolved that women are more scholarly than men." No announcement has been made of the results of the argument, but the surmise is that no decision was reached, since two women uphold the affirmative side and two men the negative. EDUCATION FOR ADULTS National Education Week is at hand. Parents in all parts of the United States are visiting the schools and discussing with teachers the quality of work their children are doing. Educational leaders are meeting the nation over to work out plans for maintaining high standards of education for the modern youth under the present economic regime. Of course, the purpose of this week which has been set aside by the N.E.A. is the promotion of education for all citizens, but from all outward indications the stress is being laid upon child education rather than adult education. Considering the situation that the world is in today, its seem a bit prone to concentrate our attention upon the education of the on-coming generation. What is needed is immediate action which can be brought about only through the practical education of adults. Joseph K. Hart has summed up the whole thing in the following very applicable quotation: "It is not the education of children that can save the world from destruction; it is the education of adults; it is the adult who must be released from his provincial mindedness, his animistic prejudices, his narrow customs, his obsolete habits; it is the adult who must be given the chance to become free in a world of science, tolerance, human sympathy and intelligent organization." The "downtown quarterback" not only are telling the world how Kansas should have attacked from the Notre Dame three-yard line that time, but they are claiming credit for engineering that Kansas passing attack in the first minutes of the game. Television? We'll admit that unemployment is a serious condition and that everything possible should be done toward relieving the situation. But when it comes to marring the beauty of the city in order to provide a few hours of labor for the unemployed we shear units with a vengeance. Campus Opinion Certainly there are more profitable ways of taking care of the city's economic situation than by actually destroying the beauty of the landscape. Why not provide labor through the planting of new trees rather than through the cutting down of the old "monarchs"? -A.G. (****************************************************************************) D1... D2... D3... Lawrence has always been considered a "pretty little city," and one of its enhancing features has been the gorgeous big trees that abound in the residential districts. The interwinter branches of the great clips and maples seen in the summer time to form vascular canopies over the streets for shade are beautiful, but the fall are positively invitable. Cut down these beautiful old trees even for the purpose of providing employment is nothing short of criminal.

Is this why the sun died, having spent the day, in such splendor? Wes it in anticipation of this? Of something even better? An elderly lady glowed with pride with anticipation. Two little belts, almost faded, blinked merrily. Two wrinkled hands smoothed a worn old purse and brushed a struggling, gray hair from her face. A young man stood behind her, looking clutching in his determined fist, a diploma signifying years of hard work on his part and years of sacrifice on her's. But is that regret outlined on her face? That is peace wreathing her face with work well done, with calm and truism from deep satisfaction of a trust fulfilled. The Snuffer, U. of Wichita. At the Play Last night, the Kansas Player opened the 'Universitv dramatical season at Fraser theater in a three day run of George Bernard Shaw's 'Pygmalion' to a mood house which received great acclaim. That which is just as it should have been Shaw's play is based on the old leg- end of Pygmalion Galates, formerly a wax museum favorite—in which Pyg- malion, a king of Cyprus, had a statue of Apollo for ivory. He fell in love with it and, at his prayer, Aphrodite gave it life. By Jerry Penney, c'33 He takes the flower girl, Eliza Doullie (Frances Wilson) under his tutelage, jointly with Pickerling and moke Grace, who helps her recover. After he has created her, he falls in love with her, although he in his erasable manner, will not acknowledge him. rainstorm. Both of those gentlemen are students of phonetics and Higgins bets that he can take a cockney flower girl who has also sought shelter and in six months have her talking and acting like a duchess. Of course, there is much more to the plot than given above, but the sub-plot to be appreciated must be seen, for it is built mainly on the characterization that our words could not credit. We believe it will be well worth your while to see this presentation of the Kansas Players. There is no final clinch at the last curtain, but a surprise ending which leaves the ending to the conjecture of the audience. Now, a word or two about the individual work of the cast. Heading the list is Allen Crafton, who easily took the laurels for his fine—we should say—magnificent portrait of the lengthy role of Henry Higgins, the gentleman who never minced words and always said what he thought. Miss Frances Wilson was next in line with her characterization of the Duchene Elza after the work of Henry Huntley, a botanist who coined cocoa flower girl. Her part was well thought out and Miss Wilson is deserving of our poor praise. We do wish, however, that Miss Wilson would not stague in her gestures and in her walks. Jessica Crafton as Henry Wigginia mother played a small part with her匀us finezza and charming manner. We prefer Mrs. Crafton in roles of gentility rather than in some of the charwoman she has portrayed in other presentations. George Callahan as the kindly Colonel Pickering, retired Indian army of floor, was his usual suave, polished, stage self and although the part wan—as Calhoun himself expressed it—a well-flower part, he evidently had bad taste. He would not roll the Nockle in the part of Alfred Doolittle, Eliza's father, was commendable principally because he was pinch-ed at his ears when he was ill, and because he played the role on one day's notice without benefit of rehearsal. That show business. Batjece Westmorland in the role of Henry Higgins' housekeeper was very good as were Latrel Allen and Margarried Woodbury as Clara Eynsford-Hill and Mrs. Eynsford-Hill, respectively. William Inge as Bradley Eynsford-Hill nearly stole the third act of "Anna," whose price of admission to see someone reach the height of vacancy attained by Inez. That covers the principals in the cast; the minor parts were filled ably by James Harken, Tom Page, Marcia Ritter, Gilmore Reynolds, Evelyn Farber, Fred Epps, Jimmie Patterson, and Virginia Strawline. the minor parts were this. By James Harker, Tom Page, Marcia Riska, Joe Feldman, Devyn Farber, Fred Egus, Jennie Patterson, and Virginia Sterling. Perhaps we are waiting too long to mention the hit of the show. As an innovation, Director Craffon merely lowered the curtain between the fourth and fifth acts long enough to let the players get off stage and then raised it in order that the audience could see a stage crew at work changing the set. Director Craffon's idea was to give the hardworking crew back-stage a title of the credit for the production. The audience liked it and there were many laughs, particularly when a couple of midstage stages literally moved pieces of furniture about the stage. The members of the stage crew in this added attraction were: Eugene Hibbs, stage manager; James Compton, electrician; Dick Banner and Stanley Hardman, Loftman; Paul Boardside, Lewis Brown, J. I. Poole, Glen Oatman, Charles Houghton, and James Connolly.
