'No K.U. Karnival,' Carter, Y.M.C.A. Secretary, Avers
Event Discontinued Due Excessive Expense and Lack of Building, He States
HELD PAST 11 YEARS
It has been definitely decided that there will be no K. U. Karnival this year. Owing to difficulties that have become practically insurmountable, no attempt will be made this year to arrange the annual program of stunts and booths as has been done in past years. This is the first time in 11 years that the K.U. Karnival has not been given.
The Karnival has consisted of side-show booths and original stuns given by social fraternities and sororities, including the Delta Fpsilon formances. Last year Delta Upson fraternity won the prize for the most entertaining stunts in the year, but Alba third was.
Betus Win in Boots Last Year
Betta Thea Pi was given the prize for winning a new machine, cippated in the productions and large numbers gathered to take in the sidewalk.
According to Sam Catter, secretary of Y.M.C.A. the event is being disbanded. Since years it has been difficult to find a building in which to hold the Karnival. It took place in Robinson gymnasium and was held at Memorial Union, and last year it was necessary to have the boots in the stadium and the stunts in Fraet the theatre.
Introduction of vulgarity and burlesque into the performances given by various organizations perverted the purpose of the programs, so that they no longer hold the important place that they normally intended for them. Mr Carter said.
Profits Not Enough
"The small profits received by the M.C.A. and W.V.C.A. did not repay he尔呐 and expense required to pro-ter K. U. K. Animal." Mr. Carter added.
A limit of $15 was placed on the expenses to which an organization might go in the preparation of a stunt or the production of a movie, making a show of originality and no wealth. However, in the last ten years the organizations considered the possibility that must make a good show at the Karim刃. Excessive expense accounts resuting from this attitude, adding to the costs, were allowed of the trust, Mr Carter explained.
