UNIVERSITY MUSICIANS GIVE ANNUAL CONCERT
Band, Orchestra, and Glee Clubs Delight Audience With Choice Selections
PHI MU ALPHA ASSISTS
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, LAWRENCE, KANSAS, WEDNESDAY, MAL 4, 1927
Number by Quartet and Xylo phone Soloist Score Big Hit
Substituting for the seventh number of the University Concert Course, four Hill musical organizations, including the Band, the Opera Group, the glee clubs, plus the Phi Mu Alpha Quartet and Gola H. Roberts, xylophone soloist, appeared in the second annual all-University concert in Robinson Gymnastics.
The University Band first played three numbers, the first a stirring, clean-cut march, "Storm and Sunshine," the second a popular overture and the third a pleasing and vivacious "Danube Waves" waltz by Ivanovici. The Band responded to applause with two heart encores.
Following the Band came the Men's Glee Club, under the direction of Prof. Frank Kendrie. In four songs, all strongly contrasted in general theme, frö the sturdy, martial best of "Drake's Drum" by Coleridge-Taylor, to the heroine of "The Year, Sweetheart" over by Handwerd, the club justified both its training and the ability of its individual members.
The Phi Mu Alpha Quartet delighted the audience with its remarkably good rendition of Tschakowsky's "Andante Cantabile," giving an excellent ensemble interpretation of that now-classic selection.
The Woman's Glee Club, under the direction of F. Repa Lazelle, next appeared, and in its four numbers pleased its heaviest mounts two, the three "by Rogers, and the medley nodel of Mount Oread molesties comprising the Farel.
Gola H. Roberts followed with his xylophone, and in the difficult but always beautiful "Poet and Peasant" masterpiece by Suppe, demonstrated his ability in handling the hammers, and in interpreting strongly a difficult selection. His second number, played with much feeling, was Ethelbert Nevin's "Resay". It drew an encore from delicited hearers.
The final number of the University Concert Course will be given next Monday night, when the New York Philharmonic performs in a direction of the famed Josef Stranyk, will play in the gymnasium.
Combined under the leadership of Professor Lazelle, the men's and Women's clubs gave the final numbers of the program, singing two selections: "He Gave Them Hail stones," from an opera of Handel's and the "Easter Chorus" from "Cavalleria Rusticana" by Masagni.
Four numbers by the University Orchestra, under Professor Kendrick's baton, followed. Again the same number as the衣篓" by Bizet and the "Serenade from Rural Wedding Symphony" by Goldmark especially pleased the audience. The finish of the suite No. 1 is the title of the suite No. 1, by Bizet is strikingly colorful and effective.
OFFICE WORK NOT PLENTIFUI
Women Students Over-Supply Need for Office Help
"The demand for office work by women students working their way through school is too great for us to fill."[1] The general secretariat of the Y. W. C. A.
Office work is preferred to all other employment, because of the shortest hours and the exact time they need. A hundred women were helped to secure positions. These women have earned their room and board by ironing, caring for children, writing tables, furnishing chairs, or by being able at work as clubs.
A large number of places for general housework have been left vacant because of the preference for office work. Miss Gum has already received several letters asking for work from women intending to teach them computer science at the University. The places open are similar to those filling the regular session.

SIXTY STUDENTS WILL TEACH
Women Secure Majority of Positions Thus Far
More than sixty teachers have been placed for next year throughout the various high schools of Kansas, according to Professor W. H. Johnson, chairman of the Teacher's Appointment Bureau. The majority of these teachers were filled by women at the University, only twelve going to the men.
Most of these are seniors, but there is a great demand for teachers for the junior high schools. These teachers are required to have only sixyears of college work, as they must be in their first year of Elderaire or before one year of teaching, they are given a three-year state certificate.
The majority of school boards desiring teachers have chosen them through personal interviews here. The lowest salary offered was $1350 a year, and tachers having some experience have been able to command more. On the whole the salaries are somewhat higher than last year. Professor Johnson says, "Kramas, an administrator for teachers, is an unusually good inducer, and very good conditions. The bursa hopes to place more this year than beforeofthe total number last year being 350."

SCHOOLS WILL DECIDE ON SENIOR EXEMPTION
Senior Class Officers Requested Exemption of A and B Students
ACULTIES WILL CONFER
Committee to Investigate Possibility of Lowering Text Book Prices
Settlement of the question of senior examinations was referred to the faculties of the various schools of medicine and nursing last night. This action was taken in answer to a communication signed by the officers of the senior class requesting that seniors with grades of A and B be excused from examinations.
Because of a difference of view held by the faculties of the different schools, it was decided to leave the settlement of the matter to them. It was also pointed out that some of the faculty meetings were to be law to give examinations. The question will probably be decided by the respective schools at the regular faculty meetings. The faculty of the College meets on the third Tuesday of each month for engineering courses; the fourth Tuesday, and the other schools on call.
In addition to the action on the senor communication, it was voted that a committee of five be appointed by the Chancellor to investigate the possibility of securing reduced prices on University text books.

H. T. Martin Plans Trip to Kansas Chalk Beds
H. T. Martin, assistant curator of the paleontology department said this morning that a field trip will be made to the chalk beds of western Kansas in search of fossils of the dinosaurs. "However, we are not sure exactly where we will go," said Mr. Martin. "We receive only two hundred dollars from the state each year with which to carry on this work and we are unable to do very much on such a budget." Finally, we cannot to Nebraska but will be unable to do so on account of the limited funds. Thirty years ago I owned a ranch and whenever I went anywhere I used my own team and wagon. It was in such a way that the best specimens of the Museum were see-
Mr. Martin said that definite plans would be made as soon as the exact amount in this year's appropriation is announced.
