Jaslow Gives Drama Tall
Advocates University Credit For Dramatics
In urging the place of the drama in educational institutions should be greater. Professor Jasmin advocated the use of credit for work done in dramas.
Professor Jaslow dealt with a definition of the drama as given by a number of critics, and the uses of the drama as an indispensable factor in the development of the community. He urged the bringing of the drama into co-operation with the church and school, particularly in the grades, and co-operation with other forces in the community. "The drama was born in 1850 when it was kicked out," said Professor Jaslow. "But it should be reinstated."
Professor M. B. Jaslow, instructor in rhetoric in the school of engineering, gave an interesting talk to the students of his department. The Use and Future of the Drama"
The reformation now going on in the field of drama was a feature of the talk. A better class of drama is more demanded, not the classic drama, but the contemporary prelate, but a drama which everyone can enjoy, according to Professor Jason Jawlow. As an illustration he cited the drama judges and community drama cities over the country. This tendency has led by the coming of better productions to the theaters. In Lawrence the local theater offers a better hill than they did last year, in bringing in such actors as "Empire Jones."
WIRE FLASHES

Large Enrollment Is Reported From School Of Religion
Twelve Classes Offered in Religion Are Well Balanced as to Attendance
Enrollment in the School of Religion is the largest in the history of the school. Although the school has been in existence but a little more than a year, considerable interest is being taken in the work and the enrollment has reached a number pleasing to the faculty of the school.
"We are well pleased and highly elated," said S. B. Braden, of the School of Religion," but we know the enrolment can be increased and we will continually work to accomplish this."
There are twelve classes in religion offered and they are evenly balanced as to attendance. It is reasonable that students who work, if not a little more, than are the women, for there are more men taking the courses. Freshmen cannot take the courses in religion for these reasons, but the highest enrollment in this school.
"The School of Religion," said Mr. Braden, "is not for the purpose of preparing men for the ministry, that is the work of a theological seminary, but it is for the purpose of giving enough of the work to allow under-educated students to find themselves in preparing for the work in which they fit"
"Students who enroll in the courses in religion thinking they are getting into 'snap' courses, are mistaken when they get into the work for they find that they are enrolled in real worthwhile work under the instruction of men with the modern ideas of the subjects they are teaching."

Bill For K.S.A.C Dormitories Killed By Committee Vote
Agricultural School Loses Fight After Relinquishing Share in Appropriation of Last Year
The bill appropriating $175,000 for the K. S. A. C. dormitory at Manhattan was killed yesterday by a bullet from a gun at a Means Committee of the House.
The 1921 legislature appropriated $500,000 for the dormitories at the state institutions, but when the plans were drawn up the board announced that the fund would not build the five buildings originally planned. They have been at Manhattan, at Pittsburgh, at Hays, at Lawrence, and at Emporia.
Dr. W. M. Jardine, president of the Kansas State Agricultural College, announced that rather than keep all the schools from having domitories, his institution would give up its claim to a portion of the appropriated fund. Construction was then moved to domitories at the University and at the three other school. K. U.'s building is meeting competition.
Economy Program Cause of Action Members of the committee say the action in killing the bill was taken in accordance with the economy program adopted by the administration. However, the same living costs that prevent material reductions in the cost of a program will prevent any large reduction in the cost of maintenance, according to committee members.
Dean Ann Dudley Blitz, of the University of Kansas, Daniel Elizabeth Agnew, of Hays, and Dean Mary Pierce Van Ziek of K. S. A. C., appended to the committee and approved upon it the need for the building at Manhattan.
Kansas Women Fought for Bill Alberta, Corbin, of the University of Kansas, was president of the Kansas Council two years ago and chairwoman of the committee watched the progress of the dormitory bill through the House and Senate.
"The bill had the hearty support of K. S. A. c. alumini." Miss Corbin said today, "and probably would not have passed without that support. I know the way we would find it possible to appropriate money for a dormitory at Manhattan, as the need is great for such a building. We should probably not be able to build the dormitory now in process of erection on North Campus. It would not generally withdrawn her claim to a share of the appropriation."
