One Musical Sense Is Common to All, Says Dr. S. Spaeth
Fine Arts Day Convocation Speaker Stresses Importance of Melody in Organization
IS NEW YORK CRITIC
"Not every one has the common sense of how to approach music, be there is a sense of art. Dr. Sigmund Speth music editor and critic, from New York City, who spoke at the Fine Arts conference subject of "Common Sound in Music."
"Music is the organization of sound toward beauty," defined Doctor Speath. "The individual tones have beauty, but when played together haplazhyllate and loudly sound, the harmonious chord amounst without organization."
Lists Five Important Factors
He listed rhythm, melody, harmony tone color and form as the five important factors in the organization of music. Three are of the greatest interest to most people, he believes.
Explains Three-One Melody
Rhythm, according to Doctor Spaeth, is the simplest and most primitive organization. A certain pattern of rhythm applied to a jumble of sounds will produce a sample of how rhyming can serve for different melodies, he played Chopin's "Funeral March," and Lohengrin's "Wedding March," which both have the same r. only the first is played in a more key, and the latter in the major.
"Melody is the most important factor," said Doctor Specht, and it can depend upon what you hear in the sound of the cuckoo. Those two notes can be found as the basis of melody in any number of works by Bach; and it will you have a work of art.
He explained the three-tone melody by playing the bugle call, the "Star Spangled Banner," "Marshallese," or the latest version of the automobile horn.
Five-Tone Melody Easiest
Examples of four-tone melody,
played by Doctor Spaeth, are: clock
chimes, "Nobody Knows," Lead
Kindly Light" and "Lady in the
Woods Words." *Sweet Adeline* is a backward version of these four notes, according to him.
The five tone melody is probably the easiest for most people to grasp, and the five black keys in division of the key board are examples of it," he said.
SCHOOL OF BUSINESS RAISES SCHOLASTIC REQUIREMENT
"Popular music is music that is familiar, and classical music is music that has proved its worth by its permanence." Doctor Sphincts stated.
He closed his address with a humor-
explanation of the composition of "Yes. We Have No Banana." from
Handel's "Hallibull Chorus." from
Backy Ballin' Bonnie to Me. from
And "An Old Fashioned
Garden."
The members of the staff of the School of Business have made this change because they believe that the 40 per cent rule was to reduce their forlorn for the 38 per cent rule is quite generous, but think it inadvisable to make a more drastic change than at one time. No change was made, so requirements, although there has been discussion related to raising them.
New regulations regarding flunk-outs in the School of Business will go into effect next fall, according to announcements released by the business office today. A student failing in 35 percent of his work will be required to retake the exam. This percentage is five points lower than the average required up to this time.

World Delegates View Agricultural Depression
International Chamber of Commerce to Split on War Debt
No.173
Washington, D. C., May 7- (UP)
World wide agricultural depression can be relieved only by reducing production and increasing the mounting output of wheat, the international chamber of commerce was told today by foreign and American aid
F. G. Russell, former dean of Wisconsin College of Agriculture, told the delegates the increasing factor of Soil Erosion. No region in the world is "frought with such potentialities as to commercial real estate." The governor he said. Russell said he believed American farmers would have to cut wheat production eventually to meet supply.
At the same time an impatient controversy intervened under the surface interface and delegates on the one hand and German and British on the other as to the matter.
British delegates, it was learned, are considering a broad resolution which would put the convention on record as favoring revision of reparations and war debts as well as turning over to a new leader, the silver and disarming questions.
Shows Purpose of Artist
American leaders will oppose strengthily any resolution touching on war debts, especially as they face the effects were under way to head off any such resolution, if possible, before it gets as far as the resolution committee, which will
Bloch Points Out Gulf Between Artist and Critic
The gulf is great between the artist's purpose and the art critic or the public's appreciation, according to Albert Bloch, professor in the School of Fine Arts. The artist does not preen in a degree but pays his paints with "school of art." He simply expresses himself as the writer does He paints what he feels.
This distance between painter and public is illustrated in a picture which is on display in the gallery. The picture depicts 15 people apparently destitute and hungry. To the casual observer the picture seems real, but of the times, the unemployed in the metropolitan industrial centers, New York, Chicago or Detroit. One woman plummed it to depict that. He looked at an odd shaped piece canvas, quite long and narrow. A problem in composition, he felt, was the way the shape could be balanced on such a shape. It must be an all-over pattern, he decided. So he tried several such patterns, and finally he came up with idea in the creation of these men. He named this group with elemental passions on their faces, hunger and perseverance and des位ion, "The Bread Riot."
"The Bread Riot," Prof. Bloch says, is not his favorite picture in the exhibit but a "father loves all his children."
Marriage Gamble Rates 100 to 1 for Success With K. U. Graduates
Committees Filled at First Meeting of Divided Council
"It shows that there are only about one-eighth as many diverces from college made marriages as there are the general marriages of the country.
Fred Elworth, alumni secretary at the University of Kansas, had some time before called attention to the few students who had been passed on to Mrs. Halle by Chancellor Lindley, when Mrs. Halle was working on a previous story on co-ed-education in the United States, and suggested led to investigations in about 100 leading co-ed-educational institutions in the United States, and as a result Mrs. Halle came to his conclusion:
A hint let drop at the University of Kansas a year ago has resulted in a book about her life. By Rita S. Halle, and published as a copyrighted article in the April issue of *Academia*.
Im 1900 there was one divorce for every 12 marriages in the United States; in 1929, there was one in every 15 marriages. There was a little less than one in every nine.
Only the most important committees were filled last night, the remainder to be taken up at the next meeting of the council, May 20. The fulfilling of this mandate will be done in Strobel wished to organize the group before taking up any legislation.
Asking for co-operation on all University problems, regardless of party affiliation or personal gain, Russell Strobel assumed the helm of the effort to meet last night. It was feared at first that the split membership of the council would not be able to accomplish any constructive goal, but the elections and appointments made last night indicate that each group is going to be fairly represented. In the elections, the men were elected to ensure their adaptability to the duties involved.
STROBEL ASKS PEACF
the committees and their members are: executive Phil Cook, Harold Deming, Robert Strelbok, Peter Eckert and Russell Strelbok; joint committee on student affairs, Russell Strelbok, Harold Burgess, Bond, Eckert, election committee, Phil Cook, Ford Burghes and Maurice McManson; council representative in the board of directors, association, Charles Hassett, Lester Bauer and Marvin Johnson; social committee, Marshall, John Frei and Ford Burghes.

Buffalo, N. Y., May 7—(UF)—Severity-five firemen were overcome by smoke in fighting a five million dollar fire which early took control of the apartment building and a church in the Mansion section. Numerous houses in the area of the fire were damaged and 20,000 pounds of small metal objects in the armory were set off by the flames.
There is a record of only one divorce for every seventy five of the marriages made between men and women who met at co-educational colleges."
Papers which dealt with the unusual method of analysis were given this afternoon at the Museum of Chemistry 2014 of the Chemistry building, by Ray Chiles and Jesse Starecki instructors in the department of chemistry, as was in charge of Prof. Selma Gottlieb.

Kansas figures, Mrs. Halle found one were divorce for 3.1 b marriage in the state at large; but only one in Kansas was an educational maternals end in court.
The reason is given by Mrs. Halle in a quotation from the "distinguished president of one of the largest state universities," Mr. Bentley, "I believe you will find that this is so because the special conditions of campus courtships not only give people unusual opportunities for marriage before marriage, but also create a community of interest that rarely can exist in marriages made in the ordinary way. My wife and I were born here, and we have spent all our adult lives together. Therefore, we have no hidden places one from the other; we have had the same memories as we had the same memories we were eighty; we have the same memories, the same loyalty."
