Distinctive Choruses to Bring Out Phases of "Betty Lou" Show Costumes and Songs Designe With Musical Significance Of Play's Trend THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN The six choruses of the all-uni- versity musical comedy, "Betty Lon" to be presented Dec. 14-15, are all distinctly different, both in dances and costumes. The chorus directors have planned the dance steps which their respective choruses will use, for example, to move with the significance of the music. "Fortune in a Teacup" is depicted by three choruses: the Past will舞 a minute in old-fashioned costumes, and the Future will be representative of futurist art in dance steps and gowns. "In Old Seville" is a chorus of eight men whose costumes will be bright torreor outfits. This chorus will be supplemented by a solo dance by a Spanish senaria with a castaen accompaniment by the chorus. "The Mrs. Vernon Castle Revue," and "Ducky's and Chet's Chorus" are used to help develop the theme of the comedy. One of the features of the comedy is the Specialty chorus, whose place in the show will be disclosed during the performance. The "Chrum Chorus," representing typical "hickers," will make its appearance in connection with the hero of the play, who first enters the University as an uncultured rustic From DeSoito. The evolution of his character to a polished gentleman is the principal theme of "Betty Lou." Black Eyes and Cuts Come in Day's Work Black eyes, cuts, scratches, and other signs of combat are not unusual usages on the campus this week. However, they are no sign of deep disguise, but all n a part of the day's work. They are the result of physical abuse being ducted among the men of the sophomore gymnasium classes. Four matches are fought at each class session. The participants are divided into classes according to weight, so that they will be evenly matched, and the bouts are unusually long. The competitors take three 2-minute rounds, with 2-minute intermission between each round to allow the men to regain their breath. While one pair is resting, another pair fights. In this way the matches are run off as quickly as possible, and the haunted at the end of the period. The matches are referred by G. B. Patrick, class instructor, and James Frazey is time-keeper. The other members who do not box that period in the tournament, form a ring and get some pointers from the boxers. Beginning Friday the freshman classes took up swimming in the pool in the basement of Robinson gymnasium. Those who have never learned to swim will be taught, and the others will practice. However, when a man is eliminated, he is not exempt from any kind of work. During the latter part of the hour, those who have not boxed take some kind of exercise or either take of practice matches or running. Holds Discussion Groups for University Freshmen The Y. M. C.

"We are merely waiting for the new exhibition rooms to be completed to start arranging the exhibitions." The increase in accidents at high-grade crossings this year will materially exceed the number for the 1922 report, according to the statistics given in the report of the Interstate Commerce Commission. The more extensive use of the automobile has been a prominent factor in the increases in casualties at highway grade crossings. In 1,164 grade-crossing accidents which caused the death of 421 and the injury of 805 people, the quarter of 1923, 860 of the accidents were to persons in automobiles and resulted in the death of 292 persons and the injury of 1,172.

Turtles Lose Heads But Not Heartbeats University of California, Dec. 10. —"I can't that the turtle's heart beat?" is the latest thing in slang expression, resulting form an experiment to determine what happens when building at the University of California. Due to the shortage of frogs for the experiment, turtles have had to be substituted. A shipment of frogs on its way from New York, but with a warrior crew work must be done on the shellbacks. The head is gently tapped with an axe. Care must be exercised to use only sufficient force to break its neck. This accomplished, a portion of the shell is removed and a string tied around the heart, which, undisturbed by the absence of the cranium, keeps right on boating. In this way, with care not to spill any oil or entitle apparatus, the students are able to measure the heart beat and to determine the exact status of the heart affairs of the said turtle.
