Shows to Remain Closed on Sunday Pending Decision
Dickinson Manager's State ment Assures End of Seven-Day Program
FUTURE UP TO COURT
University students, afflicted with a thin fag from worrying about semesters of college, attended Lawrence theaters for amusement Sunday for Lawrence movie-houses will
And whether or not the local play-houses will ever be open on Sunday again must wait until Feb. 7. At that time, a hearing on the appeal from an appellate court of the federal court, Pollock, of the federal district court, will be heard at the federal circuit court of appeals meeting in Denver. C. J. Topping, manager of the unrestricted car insurance company, announced today that two playhouses would not be open next Sunday. S. E Schwahn, manager of the Patee, announced yesterday, that the Patee will be open.
Topping, in making his announcement that the Variety and Dickinson theaters would not be open Sunday, said, "When the Dickinson and Variety theaters opened for Sunday business, the court ruling would soon be made which would determine the legality of Sunday show operation in Lawrence.
Expected Court Action
"The law governing Sunday operation had been under discussion. An induction has been granted in several states, but it is not yet allowed to operate and in many other countries, theaters had been operated on Sundays by common consent of the
"Owing to delay, the Dickinson and Vanity tursites have been unable to obtain legal justification for Sunday business. We do not wish to continue Sunday business and we will not show Sunday pictures until the courts decide that we are ready."
"We appreciate the friendly co-operation extended by those who believe that we should continue Sunday show but in turn we wish to co-operate with those who believe that the matter is one to be decided by the courts."
All charges against Topping will be dropped in view of the action he took today regarding Sunday show, a Richard Lester co-producer, and his country, said today. The case, having been filed in district court, cannot be dismissed in court until the February term of district court convenes, and it will be officially dropped at that time.
Schwain announced yesterday that he would not open his playhouse for the season but apologized to the appeal from the injunction granted recently by Judge John C. Pollock of the federal circuit court in heard in a court of appeals meeting in Denver, Feb. 7.
Richard B. Stevens, county attorney of Douglas county, said yesterday that because of Schwalb's action, all proceedings against him would be dropped. Schwalb was found guilty on three counts of violating the state Sunday last week in Jasper, J. H Mitchell court. He was hung a total of $45.
Charges Are Dropped
The case was appealed and the hearing of the appeal was set for the February term of district court. Schwain was released on $200 bond. Those are the cases where the judge has been dropped by his stand on the question of Sunday shows.
The decision of the Denver court concerning the appeal from Pollock's injunction, will materially affect the local Sunday show situation. If the federal Court of Appeals rules against the injunction, theaters in Kansas can open for Sunday shows without much fear of prosecution, as the injunction renders the state law practically imperative.
Schwahn honoured his decision concerning the matter at a meeting yesterday, and he did not refer to the recourse. The alliance adopted a resolution thanking him for his frank statement of his intentions in the matter and for the consideration he had shown in it.
On the other hand, if the court overrules the injunction, there will be no legal Sunday movies in the state. Some of those films are opening on Sunday and appearing on Monday to pay the assessed fine. In other words, if a person is in operation because the people of the community want them to be open, and no charges are filed against the theater
Judge Pollack's injunction, granted in the federal district court, prohibited Fox theaters from operating from interfering with the showing of Sunday movies. The court held that the business state rather than intratestate commerce,

Rules for Finals Place Professors as Traffic Cops'
Administrative Committee Asks College Faculty to Co-operate in Plans
ARE NOT COMPULSORY
Greater uniformity in supervision of examinations is sought in a report of the College of Liberal Arts by the faculty of the College of Liberal Arts at its regular session yesterday afternoon.
Prof. F. H. Guild, secretary of the administrative committee, explained to the faculty that the administrative committee washed to recommend certain standards of practice for the patrols of police instructors, but the students as well.
Recommended by Committee
"We wish to make of the instructor a traffic officer—present, alert, directing operations so that everything will run smoothly. We also want the instructor in conducting a class should be a small-town containable hiding behind a corner in the hope he would not notice us. We do not want in this University any gum-shoe detectives swooping around. I have talked to many students in our area and we are feeling a security of that they welcome a feeling of security that they are able to answer their questions in their own time. We are not taking unfair advantages.
"Some of the faculty members, too, have by their carelessness invited careless students and some members have hesitated to take proper precautions to insure individual work by the students for four they might be working on. Some of these committee recommends that all members of the College faculty observe these points in conducting the course."
"1. The constant vigilant presence of the instructor in the class room during the entire period of the examination.
2. Spreadness of patients in the classroom during the exam."
3. The giving of alternate questions whenever spreading out in not possible places is, for example, the books, and so forth, out of reach of students, preferably at some place on campus.
"5. The furnishing of paper for the examinations by the departments, if possible."
Suggestions Approved
The faculty approved the recommendations, and directed that copies of the recommendations be sent to all members of the College faculty.
The administrative committee reported its approval of minor changes in course numbers and offerings for the summer session, and recommended that students take a separate mittee, students in residence might carry on correspondence study work between the fall and spring semester, and between the spring semester and the summer session. They recommend credit up to five hours for orientation courses on an evaluation of the course as made by the state university of the state of the institution concerned. Both recommendations were approved by the
The questions of minimum grade points for advance from one classification to the next higher brought from Associate Dean Lawson the statement that he was more particularly enthusiastic about the students who did not fall within the 40 per cent failure rule, yet were making no progress toward graduation.
Negative Grade Points for Some
There are a number of students in it to be graded after four, five, six, and even seven semesters. They are not failing in enough hours to be dropped from the grade point system because they sufficient grade points to enable them to make progress. There are some students who owe the University grade point system a complete, but with five negative grade points. A student with such a record can never hope to receive a degree. It is not likely that his connection with the University, besides relieving the faculty of work that is getting no where and taking time from the students who are falling.
The faculty directed the administrative committee to study the problem, which would require these students under some rule that would require at least measurable progress toward a degree as a condition of remaining in the University.
