Chamlee Appears First on Annual Concert Course
Ganz With St. Louis Symphony Orchestra Will Be Closing Numb of Series
"The University Concert Course is primarily a course for University students, and I am inclined to feel that the student outside of the School of Fine Arts needs this course much more than the one in this school in order to round out his University course," said Dominic M. Schoenauer, dean of the School of Fine Arts, this morning, in speaking of the course.
"This course is one of the University's greatest e-attributions to the University student. I feel that in looking back over the years, and not knowing all the other opportunities here, this course, including the world's greatest musical talent, will be one of the greatest contributions to life here. No serious studies should think for a decade to prepare up for offering at such a reasonable price."
Series Opens Monday
The series opens on Monday, October 8, with a recital by Maric Chamille, considered by several of our prominent critics as the most probable successor to the great Caruso, according to Dean Swarthout. The recording last year, but at the last moment illness prevented him, to the disappointment of all who were expecting him, and he was immediately re-engaged for this year. It would not be over-stating to say that he will have been in the audience who has yet appeared in Lawrence, in the opinion of Dean Swarthout.
Rudolph Ganz will bring the Rudolph Ganz Symphony Orchestra here for the closing number of the course, and the concert was here six years ago for one concert, but this was not given in connection with the regular concert course. Last year the series began with Minnesota Symphony Orchestra.
Exact Dates Soon
"In the two or three years that he has had control of this orchestra, Rudolph Ganz has affected an organization that ranks as one of the leading orchestras in the country," said Dean Swarbart toolkit. "We are confident that, according to some competent critics, is the result of magnetic and particular talent in that direction. One program will be given by this orchestra in the afternoon and one in the evening. Both will assist at each program."
Exet dates for each concert number will be announced in the near future. The secretarial force of the School of Fine Arts is working overtime in checking seats in the sequence of the arrival of orders. Beginning the early part of next week, tickets will be mailed to purchasers. "Many splendid seats are available," a goodly number taken. It is desired that those anticipating purchasing seats should delay no longer about orders." it was announced at the office of the school this morning.

Latin Instructors in Great Demand, Says W.H.Johnson
Committee on Appointment Can Not Fill Vacancies; Many Enter Crowded Vocations
Success in a vocational field may be gained in many ways, but often a field is so well filled that certify training find that competition is strong enough to stifle the greatest ambitions and to dwarf hopes of pecuniary reward, said Dr. Schweller in an interview today.
Possibilities of a great demand for teachers of Latin in high schools in Kansas are practically unlimited, and statistics compiled last year show that the need for teachers of Latin was a very urgent one. There has been a real need for Latin teachers in Johnson, chairman of the appointment committee for teachers. In the spring of last year requests were received which were not filled. With only one major student in the Latin department, it was practically impossible to comply with so many requests. Nearly all the high schools in the state have made Latin a requirement, where it is not required, it is usually included in the curriculum.
Among the seventy-five requests for Latin teachers received by the appointment committee last year, twenty-six were from class A high schools. There were twelve from other states.
Many Unsettled About Major
Dean R. A. Schweger, of the education department, has been approached by many students who have no idea of what to make their major. There are juniors who are still undecided as to the proper course to follow. he says. It is a general application of the program, people go out to teach what they are not prepared for. Many of the Latin teachers in high schools have had no further training than that which they received in early years. Schweger argues that the shortage of teachers for this subject has generally been attributed to lack of preparation and information which has been circulated about stating that Latin is dying and that there are fewer school will not include it in the course of study, according to Doctor Schweger. Contrary to this viewpoint the state board of education has found that the demand has increased over recent years. There is yet a large percent of students who demand Latin.
Dr. Schwegler is very much interested in Latin and the teaching of it because of the understanding of humanity which the study of Latin gives to its student. It opens the history of a great people and causes to live again the deeds of men worthy of study.
Many Vocational Fields Full
Many Vocational Fields Fill He is interested in the utilitarian end, in serving young people who are floundering, not knowing which way to turn. The teaching of Latin is a solution, he thinks, something which would help them they may invest their abilities. "It is increasingly unfortunate that some have entered fields already too full" Doctor Schwegler said.
All phases, success and accomplishments are being investigated by a committee headed by Dean A. F. West of Princeton. The committee has been given $110,000 to spend for the investigations. Definite statistics are being filed and it has been determined that many problems such as a survey is of vast importance as an ever-preserve help in choosing vocations. Prof. A. T. Walker, of the department of Latin, is a member of the committee.

Will Finish Work Upon Ad Building in a Month--Shea
New Art Collection Housed Here Is Gift of Mrs. Thayer of Kansas City
"The Administration building will be completed within thirty days," said Superintendent Shea today. Beginning in 1911, construction has been carried on, a little at a time, until completion is at hand. The building will house the administration offices of the University, the studios and offices of the School of Mathematics, and the dean of the Graduate School and the professors of mathematics, economics, psychology, and philosophy.
Chief of interest in this building now is the Thayer art collection, presented to the University by Mrs. William B. Thayer, of Kansas City, Mo., which illustrates the development of design in textiles, ceramics, and paintings. Many important paintings are also in the collection.
The north approach is to be more imposing than the south side of the building and will, in future, be the main entrance to the building. The roof itself being constructed and the work on the rotunda in the central corridor is nearing completion. White Corinthian columns surround the rotunda in such a way as to give an aesthetic difference to the interior of the structure.
On each floor hallways run the entire length of the building, and stairways at each end of these and in the central portion of the building make for convenience of access to any part of it.

"Railroad System Is Essentially Sound," Says N. H. Loomis
Counsel for Union Pacific
Upholds Transportation
Act; Predicts
Rate Cut
"The railroads are fundamentally sound," said Nelson Henry Loomis, general solicitor for the Union Plan. "They are the most important portation Problems," at an all-University convention in Robinson gymnism this morning. "If they are allowed a reasonable time without interruption, we will work out their own salvation."
The vital relation between the prosperity of the railroads and the prosperity of the country was emphasized by Mr. Loomis. "We know that rates are high," he said. "Everything is high. The railroads are just as anxious to reduce the rates as the people are to have them rebuilt. All they want is a chance to butt their foot in front, but they can do that without ruining the transportation system of the country.
Managers Conscientious
"The managers of most of the great railroad systems have grown up in the ranks. They know the need of the country, they are conscientious, and they know that they are so hedged about by restrictive legislation that they could not do wrong, even if they wanted to."
M. Loomis traced the historical background for the present legal and economic status of the railroads.
"The story of railroad building is one of small beginnings but very rapid development," he said. From 1800 miles in 1830, the total mileage of the country has increased to 274,000 miles. Ability, skill, and indomitable will on the part of the men who are responsible for this and we cannot help feeling proud of them."
The excessive freedom allowed railroads at first in order to stimulate their growth led to many abuses, according to Mr. Loomis. This condition, in turn, led to the passing of regulatory laws. The institution began in Massachusetts and was taken up throughout the nation.
Laws Were Necessities
The laws were necessities not only for the government, but also the best interests of the railroads themselves," said Mr. Loomis. "Our most excessive strictness, however, tended to throw the railroads into disarray and caused the government had been too strict, Congress saw that they must pass laws to encourage investors and enable the railroads to grow as commerce grows." The result of this realization.
"This act has been widely misunderstood," said Mr. Loomis. "It merely entitles the railroads to a fair return on their property, so they should return and to evaluate the railroads. This labor, entrusted to the Interstate Commerce Commission, is almost completed. From what I know I can assure you that if there is any complaint to the Commissioner for evaluation, it should come from the railroads and not from the shippers or the public."
Homecoming Services Planned by Methodists
