Change Due to Lack of Mer
Trying Out for Parts
Says Crafton
"For instance, I choose a play with eight men's parts; four men come out to bribe or bribe five more men around to bribe all four are actors), we try to bribe or bribe five more men around the campus to take part; if we succeed the bribe, we want to shift to some other play. We wanted very much to put on Uncle Tom's fill over a dozen parts, and we could not beg any more to appear. We an- drew a dozen parts, and paraparently easy show to cast, with eight rather easy parts for men—but we could not persuade eight men on the
The K.U. Dramatic club has changed its next play from the mystery play "Set a Thief" to the comedy "Love in a Nest" which will be grown up and become a beginn. The cast has been chosen and will be announced in a few days.
"Much criticism has come to me because we are continually announcing that we will withdraw the plays announced and substituting others," said Prof. Allen Crafton of the department of dramatic arts at the University of Kansas, a state of affairs that is we have no men actors at the University of Kansas, and the few we are are growing fewer."
"With this unique situation and with such a scarcity of actors and of interest, our play is certainly apparent why our plays are not with acted, why the type of act is not performed, limited, and why we frequently have to change our plays even after we have played them."
Chancellor Lindley Asks Co-operation to Prevent Fires
Collaborating with Prof. J. Stuart Queen, head of the department of sociology, and Chancellor E. H. Lindsay, head of the department of biology, several members of the university student body. It was her intention to educate herself on many types representative of the various classes in the University so that she would be able to write an article she is contemplating writing.
"Ninety per cent of the college students to take my course are interviewed in an interview this month. On the whole the student of the American college is quite frank in the expression, 'I know you have many of them, too, who do have definite ideas on many of the fundamental issues.'"
Requests K. U. Members to Observe Rules Not to Smoke in Buildings
To secure some of the college attitudes on various questions has been Mrs. Halle's work for the past eight years. She is a free-lance writer and she has been able to appear in the Good Housekeeping magazine which will deal with many of the problems that arise out of the conditions pertaining to the sorry and fraternity as they exist in the variegated universities throughout the country.
A warning was issued this morning by Chancellor E. H. Lindley to point out to students that university buildings by indiscriminate smoking. This warning was precipitated by two fires on campus, and the presence of cigarettes, and the recent fire in the F.A.U. hall which is suspected by many to have been caused in much the same way.
FREE-LANCE WRITER HERE TO GET COLLEGIATE ATTITUDES
nameacher Lindley points out in his statement the fact that under certain conditions, buildings are prohibited and that a fire would badly handicap the University of Chicago, where the construction of additional equipment much needed by continua
Furthermore, the Chancellor call, attention a rule of the Board of Regents which prohibits smoking in University buildings. According to resumes filed by the Board of instructors as well as students, have been seen disregarding this ruling.
Interviews Student Body
Co-education Is Stimulating Factor of Modern College Especially in Middle West
"O-education is one of the most stimulating factors of the modern college. This is also more noticeable in the Middle West where there are not many colleges in East. It seems the more ideal state to me, because the man and woman are
"The recent fire in the F.A.U. building reminds one of the fire danger on Mt. Orca. Within a year there have been three fires on the campus, and it is under the laws of the state that the University is not permitted to carry insurance on its buildings.
The complete statement issued by the Chancellor is as follows:
Calls Attention to Rule
Every member of the University may constitute himself a guardian of the property of the University to the extent of discouraging the exposure of students through carelessness. A regents rule of long standing prohibits smoking in the University buildings. Compliance with this rule will, I am sure, appeal to every member of the University, as an unreasonable contribution to safety."
Responsibility for the borrowed equipment which was destroyed in the explosion according to members of the three fire brigades, who were at the right before the ball was destroyed.

"Would Cripple University"
"No individual should be barred from the chance for a college education who has intense intelligent curiosity and is equipped with a strong physique," Mrs. Halle said. "It seems that the working and borrowing combination is better suited to the other. The first is likely to result in broken health while the other in too much debt. The student who is able to work his way through the university."
It was while connected with the Lincoln College in New York as chairman of the board of information that I learned of a particular attention. In order to assist the parent in selection of the school to which their children should be sent she wrote her written notice.
Surprising Differences Exist "One of the surprising differences between education and education is the surprising lack of intelligence on the part of the eastern schoolchildren." The children should be sent to or to the subjects they should take up there," said Mrs.
educated under similar ideals and background and the relationships between the sexes are more natural."
Encourage Students in School
"There is a fine spirit in K.U. that I have not found in the other big state university," Mrs. Halle stated. "I feel that this is because the personality of man whom you have as your chance he has stamped itself on the students."

Chancellor Assures Employment Problem Is Nearing Solution
her Business Will Be Give Precedence by Council in Next Session
"I believe we stand close to a solution of the student employment problem," Chancellor E. H., Lindsley said today, "but we have to realize that it cannot be done overnight and that it is entirely inapplicable until next year."
The representative student discussion that was held last semester covered every phase of the situation with the information then on hand. It was an intense session, but it wasted for some time and has been under discussion before the present time. As a result it was referred to the M&M's meeting for discussion, Mr. Leland stated.
"The Student Council has been handling the student employment situation, that it has been in death, and that it has been forgotten by the council. This is not true," the Chancellor said, "the council is doing what they say that they can to solve the situation."
This is a life and important question, and so in the solution, he concluded. I do not think that it will be vitally concerned with the matter and that the administration is not only followed by the department but also with keen interest, but is also prepared to offer whatever cooperation may lie ahead.
It may be that the problem will not be taken up at the next meeting of the council. Other more pressing business should be addressed, the council cannot, however, be accused of inaction, he declared. The council is doing its best to work out a solution to the problem.

STUDENT COUNCIL STARTS MOVE TO ABOLISH HELL WEEK ON HILL
Mayerberg Tells Noon Forum True Value Is Measured
"God has given no class, country, or race a monopoly on worth, virtue, talents, or aspirations," said Rabbi Samuel Mayerberg of the Jewish temple in Kansas City at the neon fort in formal hold in Miyaji ball his son.
Mayerberg on "What Are You Worth." He gave several methodologies for how to answer that the only true judge of it was determined by the difference between what we take from and what we give to our children. He compared favorably the Boy Scout idea of service to the idea of wealthy men who plan to save their service for themselves.
"Service is not just writing a check for money which is not needed," the Rabbi said. "I measure a gift by what is left after it is given."
Mayerberg urged harmony as necessary for advancement, and explained that harmony and conformity were not the same.
"The most irritating person in the world is the person who dares to think against the mob mind—dares to embarrass the mob's favorite news paper editors."
"Harmony, however, is necessary for service and understanding," the rabbi said. "We hate each other because we do not understand each other. We think the other man i like was wrong. He does not believe us we do."
Rabbit Mayerberg has taken active part in Dr. Burris Jenkins' forums at the Linwood Boulevard Christian heidie his own work in the temple.
