FRIDAY, MAY 9, 1930 CONGRATULATIONS The administration and the faculty of the School of Fine Arts are entitled to much credit for bringing about the Music week festival which came to a close last night. It is an event of no small importance when so varied a group of artists as Lawrence Tibbett, "tire weaselhead", and Sylvia Lent can be brought to the attention of students in a single week. Each year music week is being made more varied and more interesting as well as more educationally important. This year was no exception, and the extended congratulations to those who added in making music week possible. NEW AMERICAN LIFE The Thoughtful Freshman, wading through puddles and pouring rain“And I read today that Kansas was dry.” And another thing, we take more than two motions to open our cans, for the Kansas can opener is a stubborn instrument that requires a firm hand and no mean strength to wield. All-wool suits may come down to $15 in the cast by next winter. We have a strong conviction that we shall still be paying $50 for a shirt in Kansas. Two other schools in Kansas are wonderful for the school teachers, but we as students may have to continue to study in Kansas. With wide eyes and bated breath Kansans listened to Dudley Crafts Watson told the wonders of modern civilization—the numerous aspects of which had not penetrated to this middle western state. Thanksgiving dinners ordered over the telephone for 19 guests the Wednesday before Thanksgiving may be an actuation in Chicago, but we haven't reached that state of culture in Kansas. All that Mr. Watson said sounded wonderful, but he was not talking about Kanasa. Perhaps he spoke only of the fact that he spoke of some distant fairy land. Isn't it odd how wind takes waves out of hair and puts them in the ocean? THE GILPIN PLAYERS Ever an artist, transcending race, color, tradition and prejudice, was Charles Gilpin, the Negro actor, who died at his New Jersey home this week. The wide acclaim which came to him was generally as he wilted it—a masterpiece that was not remarkable merely because of the fact that he was a Negro. Eight years ago Charles Gilpin appeared in Lawrence in "Emperor Jones," at the Bowersock theater. He spoke to a group of students and faculty on the Hill. All were impressed by his sensitivity, his depth of character, his artistry. A Kansan reporter, a woman student from the South, was assigned to interview the actor. She hesitated. She felt an emotional revulsion to the Negro race, though intellectually she sought to throw off prejudice. She came near refusing the task; but she did not. She got her interview, and came away with a profound respect and honor for the man. That same year, Howard Fisk, a student in the department of speech and dramatic art, conceived the plan or organizing a group of Negro students on the campus for dramatic work, the group to be known as the Gilpin players, in honor of the distinguished visitor. But insufficient interest was shown, and the organization did not materialize. Now, however, after the presentation of the first all-Negro play on the campus, the success of which was nothing short of phenomenal, there is lack of interest in the Negro drama on the Hill. Negro and white students work together to welcome the continuance of performances such as "Come Seven." What more fitting memorial could they offer to the dead artist of their race? Why not the Gilpin Players now? CONSTITUTIONAL ORATORY The practice of stimulating interest in oratory by studying and speaking on the Constitution is a worthy and laudable undertaking. Those taking part learn more of the Constitution than they would otherwise know, and at the same time get something worth while for a subject. But the practice of letting the orations drift into a more jumple of high-pitched and lofty sounding words is in being to be avoided. The students working on the project should get a true sense of the background of the rams of the immortal document, they should have a realization of the difference between the social condition $ \varepsilon $ then and now. The speakers should make an analysis showing both faults and virtues of the Constitution. Such expressions as "The greatest work of the hand of man," and "The glory of our country," cannot be disputed; but what do these phrases talk about the workings of the machinery set up? True, they make a great speech. Their power of persuasion may be tremendous, but why not make a frank, critical analysis of the constitution? Criticism in its true sense unbiased weighing of the question at hand. Vacuum Tank Explodes, Blowing Driver of Car out of Seat into Mud-headline. Well, you can push nature so far but no farther. She always did abor vacuums. CROWS AND MAGPIES In the time of Aesop, crowns and muggles were known to gather valuable articles and to store them away for no good reason; occasionally resulting in disaster for themselves. Such qualities in birds are thought to be rather cunning and intelligent, but do not seem to be belfit college students. However, the fact remains that decently respectful decks of cards cannot remain on the tables in the Memorial Union building. A short time ago the raceques belonged to the recently popular ping-pong table were stolen. It is difficult to understand to what use the articles could be put besides to play ping-pong. It is evident that some person is collecting everything he can get his hands on. The incident required the vacating of the table for several days until new paddles could be ordered. A set of chess men also disappeared and has not yet been returned. While the expense of replacing stolen articles it not great, it requires the discontinuance of some pastime until the new articles can be obtained. This attitude of students is not in keeping with the Union spirit. The building was constructed for the convenience of all students and is not the property of any particular person. If students would put themselves in the place of others who come to the place for entertainment and find property missing, they might think twice before taking even so small an article as a deck of cards or a ping-pong peg. Wavy bean soup-restaurant sign down town. Are these wavy beans somewhat the same as the first item in the famous couple, "Curly teeth and pearly hair?" HOUR OF DARKNESS Ten till ten, Students, studying; library attendees attending—to the lights, one gathers. Then-darkness, no nightlight. Black, something like the ages of spades. Father time takes another rwath; and light once more! No. Evelyn, not yet. Darkness descends again, and earth goes through a couple more ores. And yet again. Some day, we predict, a terrifying stream will rend the main reading room, shots will be fired, and Seattail Yard will have some more to do. It's that kind of darkness. "Good rocketeering" is the comment of the Thoughtful Freshman on the consecutive victories of the Jayhawker tennis squad. RATIONALIZATION TO THE RESCUE The modern viewpoint with regard to world peace and to the leasening of the economic commercial rivalries between continents and nations disbanded by the United States,曼兜德勒 Dr. Friedrich Wilhelm von Fritzwalt, is of hopeful significance. The modern viewpoint is that of the need for co-operation and the benefits derived from it. Everywhere the men in public affairs are urged to co-operate and to consider the other person's rights. This should apply just as much to international affairs as it does to those of local nature. Rationalization is the paramount thing which must become an influence in bringing about the international consciousness of men and nations and make them co-operate. If it does become the guiding principle of all economic relations, there will be the possibility of replacing serious economic emmites with understanding and mutual help. The ambassador sees the better working out of world peace through the steadily developing world opinion concerning serious problems of the world today. It will be through the increasing tendency to rationalize that the question of world peace may hope to be helped in a manner quite as significant as has been noted in regard to commercial conditions.

Ryan United States Coast Guard Washington, May 9, 2014 - Soaring a great book-collecting coup through use of funds presented last year by the Daniel Gugheisen fund for the promotion of aeronautics, the Library of Congress has brought from Europe collections ever assembled. European Aeronautic Collection Purchased for Library of Congress Dr. Herbert Putnam, librarian of George Washington and Dr. Albert F. Zahn, librarian of Columbia University, were quick to employ the new resources provided by the Gungenheim university on annotations, including the familiar bibliography made to centralize Washington libraries on annotations, including the famous successfully for the acquisition of the following European annotated library materials: The Herman Hoers collection (Australian), of 108 Items, the Vitaliser Billiards company. A collection and a collection of 621 rare items made by Mags Brothers, book dealers of Magas Brothers. The Gaston Tissier collection (French), considered the finest private collection in Europe, comprising 1803 rare books and pamphlets. The acquisition of these collections means, in effect, that the Library of Congress has completed a full record of the history of aeronautics from the earliest times, as well as records of mechanical data relating to the research undertaken in a position hereafter to employ the income from the Guggenheim fund to complete a contemporary record. The Campus Mews The Langley collection hereforeo housed at the Smithsonian Institute, contains over 2,000 publications. --and Money---- Hello-hello-bello-hell-Ye, I want this charge reversed- Oh, hello, Mother!

The new collections now are in process of cataloguing and checking. When this work is completed, American ceramics will become the most available material of extreme richness and interest, ranging from Lindbergh's "We back to Vellum volumes of medieval pottery." There are fascinies of Leonardo da Vinci's famous manuscripts on Right, left and front by Francis Lara, at Stresa Italy in 1670, which studied the buoyancy of light bodies, and drafted a plan for ships to sail around the globe, in that far-gone day. Lara distinguished between navigation of the air by bodies lighter-than and heavier than water. Benjamin Franklin is represented by a manuscript giving his observations of the first balloon ascend in Paris, at that of Benjamin Franklin was Ambassador to France. Professor Charles, inventor of the hydrogen balloon, is represented by the original manuscript of his report to the French Academy of Sciences in 1789. His official manuals of the Montgolfier brothers earliest French balloonists. The first record of a woman passenger in the air is a pamphlet publisher at London in 1788, entitled "a letter to her husband" by William Sage, the First English female air traveler, with Mr. Lumard's balloon London, June 29, 1785." Lumard, a secretary of the Italian Embassy was an early ballooning enthusiast. One volume contains specimens of the fabric of the famous early balloons, including that of Blanchard and Jefson, made from a cotton crossing of the English fabric in 1783. For lovers of aeronautical fiction, Goodwin's "Man in the Moon," 1638, is an especially interesting item. "See America First" seems to be the slogan of the Pennsylvania State debating team, if the mileage traveled by the team in season is any indications. The other teams more than 3,000 miles in fulfilling engagements throughout the United States were traveled with the University in their most distant opponent on the timerary. Doctor Zohm, in charge of the new aeronautics collectivity of china, is also a researcher laboratory in the Navy Department for 13 years, and is author of a standard work on "Aerial Vehicles".

ALLPHIN, Esmerrist At The Concert --from MONTREAL ANDANIA JUNE 20th By Margaret Kilbourne The personality of a little girl who, while taking her encore calls with a pose and gruntuousness which might look askedly toward a certain section of the auditorium for her mother's violinist's ability to captivate the audience which heard Sylvia Lent last pardon, the closing attraction of first day. Miss Lent's playing was chiefly characterized by a certain wistfulness of emotion. But the audience is showing a great premise and which somehow appealed more than if it had been played in a different manner. For her first group, she presented three Kreisler arrangements. The "Melody" (Gluck), soft and plaintive, includes a trio of scales and melody which to permeate her program. "Sicilienne and Rigaden" (Franceeure) was equally melodic but in a lighter vein. "Prelude and Allelui" (Franceeure) was displayed more technical brilliance. Miss Lent presented her heaviest part f the program in the second group, "Concerto in G Minor" (Brussels). Of course in the second group it is particularly lovely and satisfying to the listener's mood. She showed complete sureness in the final movement. "Call of the Plain" (Goldmark) with a little dance back again to more simple melody. "Piece en Forme de Habanera" was a soft whispering, calling for a great deal of technical delicacy. The pronounced sound of the basso (d. Sarasate) was well interpreted. In her fourth group, Miss Lent's complete sense of interpretation added to the usual poignancy of the Chonin drama. The character has a haunting melody of "Waltz in B Milton" (Chopin - Spindleins). The delicacy of the music is also enhanced by its brilliance of "Campanella" (Pasanini- The Natee TODAY—Sue Carol and strong cast in an absorbing drama of the younger set entitled, "Walking with the People" and Everyday News Feature. TOMORROW — Rin-Tin-Tin. The wonder dog, and big cast in a thrilling drama. "A Dog of the Mourning," features feature and Everyday News feature. Kreisler) climaxed the artistry of her program. Much of the charm of Miss Leaf's rectal is to be located to the understanding and support which Powell used in his book, "The Great Hope," hoping the best compliment which can be paid her is that, for the rest her rectal is unassuming, even as against her personality. For it would have been impossible to succeed so pleasing a child- artist less than Ms. Powell, whose rectal had not been that of an artist. Miss Leaf's wife was of her best in the woods and consistently selected her program to bring out these features. The students at Pennsylvania State college are subject to $5 fines for pre- holiday cutting. The only possible way to be excused from this fine is by the dean of men, the dean of women, or the college physician.
