THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
Kansan Reporter, Thrilled By Charm and Radiance of Jane Cowl, Bluffs Way to Interview
"I'll all very real to me," she was saying. "I fairly live the part here."
And the Kansan reporter who had gotten back stage for an interview with Jane Cowl to find if she was the same radiant, magnetic person off stage that she was on, felt his heart thump rapturously. She was not quite the same person whom he seen a few moments before as the ghost of an Irish girl fifty years dead, nor even as the laughing man whose kabob had so beautifully portrayed. But she was just as unaffected, just as charming, just as sincerely as she had been on the stage.
The Kansan reporter told her that he was not only a newspaper man but was also a student of dramatics. He did not tell her that he had merely been in a few plays in the Little Theatre and had recited "The House by the Side of the Road" in "Oral Interp." But he was a student of
Cowl's work from the viewpoint of dramatic technique. So. Miss Cowl was interested in him. And how they talked.
"How can you manage to put in those little touches of humor right in the midst of an atmosphere of intense nathos?" he said.
"Oh that is just my own philosophy of life. It is easy. Then perhaps I learned it partly from David Warfield. You know I grew up under David Warfield and Beloise. That one of Warfield's characterities."
The questioner continued, "How does the audience affect you? Do

Dr. George Dallas Hanna, who is in charge of the paleontological collection of the California Academy of Science at San Francisco was a visitor at the department of paleontology in Dyche Museum Friday.
As the reporter was leaving, the actress wished him much success in his dramatic work. "I know you will do it alright," she said. Then she hurried out the stage door to a taxi which had been waiting all the twenty minutes she had been taking. Four other members were there, and they were incidentally waiting too. They answered accustomed to such occasions. Jane Cowl has probably had many another such interview before—with
you pay any attention to your listeners?
"Oh, I should say so," she nurried to say. "My audience is everything. I can feel their attention, and when they are with me I am, well I guess you'd say 100 per cent strong.
I was able to make the part of Moonyen Chare in "Smilli Through" stand out. The portrayal of this character, a quiet bride of fifty years ago, who was on the stage only a short time was especially difficult to make strong. "It was only after I went back and considered it possible that I could have been that I was able to make the part live."
another such interview before—with r-norters and histrionic aspirants both.
Miss Cowel gave the same advice that Belasco, with whom she worked, always gives to novices who would make good on the stage. "Always think before you speak. First get the realization of the situation you are in and then let the action follow. Listen to the words of the other actors as they are spoken just as though you had never heard them before."
Doctor Hanna is on his way to Washington, D.C., where he will attend a conference in the industry of the Publisher Islands of Alaska. Doctor Hanna has been the government commentator of the seals there for the past ten years and probably knows the most about them. She knows the west coast, dan any other man.
He is now working up a memoir on the Fonaminifera of the California region.
He tried to walk across the street with his legs, light his pipe with his hands and mouth, see a pretty girl with his eyes, and think about his ear rant with his brain, all at one and the same time. Now he aln't—Ex.

Restorations of the Partheon and the Greek theatres, together with the ruins as they appear today were shown. The ancient theatres were built on the same floor for the seating arrangement. The one at Athens, dating back to the second century, B. C., had a seating capacity of nearly eighteen thousand. The seats were built in an irregular semi-circle on the natural slopes of the theater. There was no stage; only a circular area for the actors and choruses.

The most compete ruins of an ancient theatre found at Epidaurus, Greece, where even the stone surrounding the circular stage area remains. The seating capacity, according to Professor Rudolph, was fifteen thousand, two hundred sixty. Most of them had no hacks, except the few front rows reserved for the people of high rank. Usually five plays were presented in a day; three tragedies, one fable, and one comedy. The three great tragedy writers of the time are Sophocles, Aeschylus, and Euripides.
