Entered as second-class mail matter September 17, 1010, at the post office at Lawrence, Kansas, under the act of March 3, 1897 TUESDAY, JANUARY 24 1928 HANDBALL IS KING Handball reigns supreme. But it sits in state like an ermined monarch on a milking stool. A hundred or more members of Hill organizations fidgeting nervously, shifting from one foot to the other, or sitting in long ropes on the benches in front of lockers. Crowded lockers, with members of gym classes clamoring for dressing room. Last chance to play that match because classes and labs interfere. Scores not turned in, and matches not played. And three lone, insufficient, crowded handball courts to handle the crowd. That's just a little atmosphere mentioned to give the reader an adequate knowledge of the first round of the intramural handball tournament which is now in its second round. Scores of players were eliminated in the first round by defeat. Dozens of others, however, were eliminated simply because they could not get courts on to play. Intramural sports are becoming more popular. The fact that they are democratic and allow the majority of men on the Hill to participate actively in athletics of some sort or other speaks highly in their favor. But intrumaruls cannot accomplish their purpose without the necessary equipment. And the growing popularity of handball itself is such as to point out the inadequacy of the three courts available in the gymnasium. But for quite a while yet King Handball promises to be an armed monarch sitting on a milk stool. The field house that is necessary to proper handling of intramural sports is now the food dream of the athletic department. Since the more urgent and more interesting problem of an enlarged stadium with all modern conveniences for inter-school contexts has been met, the efforts of the department can be centered on that of securing such a field house for the use of the students. The Ottawa Herald says that fun damentalists in Ottawa do not believe in a literal brimstone hell. It suggests that the doubting Thomasmess spend the coming week in the infernal regions of Mt. Oread. No, quizzes, not nizzies! WE HUMBLY ADD TO THE LIST Where lies the seat of trouble? Where lies the seat of trouble? That is the question which arises in the minds of millions. American citizens are most seriously wrestling with the problem of youthful criminality. The young criminal is with us. That is a fact. Most of the crimes committed today are the work of boys and girls who have not as yet reached full maturity. That is another fact. As a result their elders are looking for some definite phase of the situation toward which they may point a demonstrative finger. Would-be solutions are as plentiful as their authors. "Our laxity in city law enforcement lies at the basis of all that," says critic number one. "No, it is the movies," thinks a second, and a third elaborates on what he terms a "fear complex." Many are prone to cast a distrustful eye upon education in the abstract. And still, why should these particular phases of the social order be at fault? If they are so much at variance with the general welfare, why are they not productive of even more anti-social characters? Why should merely one individual here and there, living under exactly the same conditions as far as the above factors are concerned, give way to illegitimate tendencies while his playmates keep to the straight and narrow? Those of us who are young enough and those who have not can easily the introspective spirit of youth well know the crying hours which come to those of adolescent age. If there not a possibility that here we may find a more plausible analysis of our case? There are times in the lives of ever our adults when companionship and guidance are most vital; when the facing of crises in a manner termed proper can be accomplished only by means of another's help. Consider then the youth who is passing through his most critical period in life. His is not the experience tested by years. His is not the courage of age. His are only the temptations. The kind of guidance which is at his disposal during this period will largely determine his future civic stability. Such guidance must begin in the home, it is true, but an equal responsibility rests with our schools. Is the school meeting that challenge? The work of the average high school is adapted to meet the needs of the average pupil. Lack of a sufficient number of teachers and conditions in general make intimate personal contact with even these pupils inpracticable. What becomes of the genius of the upper ten per cent is told in an ever sad story. Since he finds little difficulty in meeting the requirements of the curriculum he is allowed to drift as personal inclinations may steer him. Each intellectual drifting is dangerous. His adolescent mind, impassionable as it is and unrestrained, will very easily enter undesirable channels and devote itself to anti-social dreams. The result is spilled when another burden is added to society. Is it not high time that we devote *more time to a study of the social development and education of the out standing brilliant child?* The University of Texas will offer classes in golf instruction for girls at the beginning of the second semester. What the Kansas Editors Say Who is America's fastest talker? It is Clarence Darrow, who talked Leopold and Loeb out of the noses" and man, who talked himself to the scaffold in the woods, who talked in a tall, skinny sophomore at Amherst college. He talked his talk to other professors, which recently featured in news articles. Other fathers have been talked out of coonquin coats. But the point is that he was the fastest talker in sophomore in question. Coollidge, a federal employee in Washington, D.C. Anyone who can unknot coonquet coonquets, break down the extent of 500 greenboards, has a double-pointed, bevel-ed, diamond pointed tongue and don't you yong And, God help you, young Johnni Coolidge, if you lose that coat!—Emporia Gazette. In the "King's Henchman," Eden St. Vincent Milley has gone back to the England of the ninth century for Anglo-Saxon verbs tells the tale of Aedgar, King of England, a widower who wishes a second wife. Edgar wields a sword, wold, to bring to him Aslain, daughter of the Thane of Devon, of whose beauty he has heard. Attichelwold invites herself, himself, and tragedy is inevitable. The Stage The score of "The King's Herchman" makes frequent use of the leif-motif, to represent both actual character and first act of the curtain rises and reveals the hall of King Eadgar's castle with the king and his nobles of the kingdom. The curtain harper, sings of deeds of valor. Following this is a choral response in prais of the harper and that he may be a knight of the court. This the Aciflidia motive is first introduced while the nobles discuss the King's prospective bride. When Aeclidian is signated to get her, his sturdy motive is first introduced and which is con- OFFICIAL UNIVERSITY BULLETIN Vol. IX 1 Tuesday, January 24, 1928 No. 95 MENOS CLIP CUDD. 40 Rehearsals for the context signal will begin again Thursday afternoon.

Both words, and music, throughout the act, portray Aeschylus' between life and death. To show the complete inability of almost any man to resist the spoon seven times, we have T. A. LARREMORE, Director While the knights are talking about Archchelld, he enters, and the expedition is planned, the henehreman repent instruction; the Archchelld instructs the archon to bring blood, and, as the pledge moves, the pledge moves first in heard. They toll each other their mumens, and Aethelwold, horror-striken, who she is like. As Aelirida leaves him, she turns to her husband, his bruneman is left alone to make his decision. The orchestra tells of his native are hard and hisledge to flax, but her voice detains him, and as Macus appears seeking comfort with his Maucasian ac The second act in chiefly an extended love scene, and the impassioned ground, commencing with the impassioned ground, establishes the mood and atmosphere of main tien剧, a forest in Dewen is discovered, on the Eyes of All Hallow strenues, a dog grabs Acebeldow and Mawes, and loses to lose their way and become separated.

She had come to practice a magic spell, hoping that the immanent would bring her to love a ghostly choral behind sceneries answers her. At the mid clear, the moonlight fall upon Acebeldow, and she leaves them in each other's arms; and then begins one of the most beautiful love dues in the literature of music. It is based on principal love theme of the opera. This motive is heard frequently throughout the opera. As the knights of Aethwold's family and godspouse, they take up the arrangement of the only folk-song used in the entire work which deals with the Cassars involved in the conspiracy against the this song, Aethwold's base is brought in and he takes his departure as the custome falls, and Gai becomes a member of the Aethwold motives na a salva. The episode to the first act starts with a tune, in the folk-song manner, song by the wood-winds. As the curtains are dislocated, singing was spins in the hall of Ordiana's house, where Aethiada is playing with his bride. Then comes a tense scene between Aethiada and Aedflore, for with the care of the household, and not wholly content with a husband whose unconfessed treachery must have caused him many sleepless nights. Athelwold accordingly plans that they shall leave Devon immediately, and then return to where Aelfreda would henceforth go forth wonderfully dressed and without care. As they sing farewell to Devon the orchestra commences a different tune, before different times throughout the act, a motory of great beauty and nation. Eadger and his men enter singing the folk-song of the first act. As his greets Aethwold, and asks to be taken to the room, he appears in the doorway, in all her jewels, proud, beautiful, and splendid. Eadgar's arm slowly drops from Aethwold's shoulders, and the oracle's voice calls out, sounds the pledge motive. But it is too late, for the King at that moment at the rates comes on a friendly visit. Aethelwold confesses his desicion to his wife. He then bids Aelfida help him keep up his desicion to the King and retire and return home. Aelfida deputy to do his business, at least so he sups poes. After Eadgar's sorrowful rebuke, Acholwyn plunges his dangrove into his breast, and a brief threeday he rests on the floor. Then he climbs the cloral end of the opera, with the King intoning his lament against the chorus of refrainers and woodmen, and the orchestra playing a wild and unpredictable "farewell to Devon" theme* As the retains lift the body of Aurewelbod and bear it away, the orchestra again plays the pledge motive, and the curtain falls. The match talked-of and Wondered at picture, "Bon-Hur," him at last appeared in Lawrences and is showing at the Varnity. It is every thing that it has been claimed to be, featuring excellent actress Amanda Seyfried in photography. After seeing it there is no wonder loot as to why it was three years old. Ranon Navarro does some wonderful acting in the film, but the entire cast has so well performed their part, that there is little reason for discrimination except for the prominence of the part in the picture. The actors' eyes are piercing in such scenes as mobs, the carliter races, and street scenes. Two scenes of unusual merit are the charist races and the sea battle. The charist race is undescribable in its excitement, the binity of it is great description. The sea fight has thrills in it. The miniseries details carries out more scream. In several accesses the film is done in color work which is without equal. Every detail in the picture is colored in the color which is even unusual in a print. The story itself, is old, but in such a picture it will never grow too old for interest. To see it is to see the best gift that ever offered.

MARIE SUNDELIUS Soprano in "THE KING'S HENCHMAN" coming January 25th to University Auditorium Because of the magnitude of the company and the production itself, it is said that only the large cities will have the opportunity to see this production. "Broadway" has been the biggest hit since "Lightnin' and "Rose Marie" because it combines the heart throbbing drama of a romantic dramatic play with the tang and grit of musical theatre. Its scenes are laid in a super club on New York's white way and in keeping with the loftiness of the orchestra and jazz orchestra on the stage. Its characters are principally entertainers employed in the club, each young chorus girl having a daughter in the story. While the orchestra plays on the chorus girls don their strung costumes for the various roles she performs at Lanec, an ambitious son-and-dance man, makes love to his chorus girl sweetheart, Bille Moore, and fights against influence that would accomplish her role as patron of the club, Steve Crandall the girl but his scheme to abduct her BOWERSOCK Tonight - Tomorrow Al Cooke and Kit Guard "Legionnaires in Paris" News - Comedy - Review Shows: 3 - 7 - 9 Mat. 10-10.
