"Already in five years the Annual Music Festival has gained state and national comment. It brings each year a huge number of visitors to our city."
"To provide for such a week considerable expense is necessarily involved which must amount to more than $1 million in the various events I hope that Laurence will respond in a way that will incur a financial burden and encourage those who have given so largely of their time and talent to go into community."

"Tweedles" to Be Given by Oread High Senior
The Entomological Society is affiliated with the Kansas Academy of Science which held its annual meeting April 25 to 27.
"Who got up earliest?" "Well it was a case of who got up the latest." However, tonight, no doubt the University School of Medicine came up from Kansas City to be a guest of the chancellor and visit with Doctor Jesse Muller, who is the topic of conversation. Then the three will hark back to the days of disreputable clothes when they shared camp life and the call of the lake and
"What ate the most?" "That was a race."
At any rate such a smooth and unseventable conduct seems incongruous with the natural conclusion—is well they were asked for a fish story as well.
The chancellor reminded to Doctor Jesse that in all probability they would have a University if they would do the job which they have on an annual basis.
Doctor Jesup conceived the Chancellor to be the best fisher and commented him for his excellence in purity. He encouraged the opportunity to tell a good story on the Chancellor. The Chancellor was equally interested in Doctor Jesup's references.
