THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
Spring's Verdure and Winter Weather Were Not Reasons for Appellations of Buildings
No, Clairies—Snow hall wasn't so named on account of a heavy snowfall during the winter it was erected. Nor was Green hall named "green" on account of freshmen or the verdure of the grass around it. Neither was Spooner church christened before the spring's "poisoning" or dates. Believe it or not.
Fraser hall hasn't been called Fraser all through its many years of existence. It was first named in the thirty third annual catalog of the University of Kansas, in honor of Gen. John Fraser, second chancellor of the university. From the time of its erection by popular sub-master, it was known as TLB university building, and later when there was more than one building, as Main hall.
Nor has the Journalism building always been such. It was erected as a chemistry building in 1884 and occupied by that department for many years. Then in 1899 it became the home of the medics and the Medical Bull. Now we have the latest version, or Journalism building. The present Chemistry building was not erected until 1900.
The third building to be erected on the present campus was Snow hall, completed in November, 1886. It was designed by architect James M. history and director of the museum of natural history at that time, and later, the fifth chancellor of the unitarian university.
Spooner library was erected next, in 1894, through a bequest made by William B. Spooner of Boston, Mass.

Green hall, erected in 1904, was called the Law building until 1906, when it was named in honor of the late James Wood Green, "Uncle Jimmy," first dean of the School of Law, and a member of the law faculty from 1878 until his death in 1919. Fowler shop building, erected in 1888 through the generosity of George B. Fowler, Jr., of Kansas City, Mo., in memory of his father, has always been known by that name.

Dyche Museum, erected in 1903, was named for "Lewis Lindsay Dyche, A. M., M. S., professor of Anatomy and Physiology, taxidermist and curator of mammals and birds," and a collector of the old catalogs. This building was known only as the Natural History museum for many years.
Marvin hall, when it was erected in 1907, was called the Civil and Mechanical Engineering building and is first called Marvin hall in the 1910 catalog, after F. O. Marvin, first dean of the "engine school" and one of its founders, and not after Chancellor James Marvin as often supposed.
Gothic architecture is being used in the tracery of the windows on the north side of the new library building. The glass for these windows will be set in steel frames instead of the usual wooden frame. Four of these windows have been completed so far.
Haworth hull was known as the Geology and Mining building until 1910 when the first new name appeared in the catalog. It was mamed in honor of Erasmus Haworth, M. S., and the professor of geology and state geologist.
Plays by Tarkington and Barrie Presented by Dramatic League
Townspeople, Faculty Member and Students Take Part in Production
The Lawrence Drama League will open its season with two short plays, "The Old Lady Shows Her Medals," by Sir James M. Barrie, and "The Trysting Place," by Booth Tarkington, Monday, May 15th. The Liberty Memorial high school. The public is invited and there will be no charge for admission.
These plays are of contrasting types, the former presenting a dramatic picture of England in war time by one of the foremost living English dramatists. The latter is a rollicking comedy with a hero in that world, which the outer of "Seventeens" is a master at portraying.
The cast of "The Old Lady Shows Her Medals," is; Hs. Downey-Murz, J. W. O'Bryon; Mrs. MacMurry—Mrs. F. E. Witeraf; Mrs. Miclecham—Ms. H. Reding; The Haggetty-Woman—Fraser Wilson; Kenneth Downey—Dwight Premice; the Rev, Mr. Williams—Clarence Grubbss.
"The Old Lady". Mrs. Doysey, is a London Charwoman as are Mrs. MacMurry and Mrs. Mickleham. The Haggerty woman is only a scrub woman and is not considered quite their social equal by most people, but a "Kilte" home on a furlough from the French front, finds he has a "mother."
"The Trying Place" cast is: Mrs. Curtiss—M.H. F. Tagarratt; Mrs. Brigs—F. B. Dains; Jesse Brigs—Ms. F. B. Dains; Jesse Brigs—Lusell Calver; Rupert Smith-Ted Wear; Mr. Ingoldby—T. C. Charleton; The Musterious Stranger—Arthur J. Mix. The scene is in a secluded corner in a popular place. The situation that is used it is chosen by the several compos as a rendezvous.
