UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
MR. ZACH CONDUCTS ALL REHEARSALS IN ENGLISH
Has Made St. Louis Symphony Orchestra One of Best In
America
"The University of Kansas should support two orchestras and have the advantage of hearing four big symphony concerts each year," said Dean Butler of the School of Fine Arts at The For. For this reason I am bringing the *St. Louis Symphony* Orchestra to Lawrence Thursday, May 10."
The St. Louis Symphony Orchestra is fast becoming one of the best orchestras in the world.
MAX ZACH
the only conductor in the world that conducts his rehearsals in English. "Mr. Zach," says Leonard Liebings of the musical Courier, "is one of the most scholarly conductors holding a microphone without sensationalism in any form, and his reading of the score is invariably true and full of poetic beauty." He afterward stated he had never seen a conductor who was more careful to bring out the composer's meaner than his own idea of that meaning.
Conductor Zach is the only Pole in the orchestra, though practically every European country is represented among the musicians. He was solo viola player in the Boston Symphony, assistant conductor, and official accompanist for the orchestra. He also acted as conductor during several summer tours. Mr. Zach took the St. Louis orchestra at the time of his retirement from the chorus, a part of the organization, to concentrate upon the upholding of the orchestra. He is in reality father of the organization.
The program Thursday evening will be a popular one, consisting of three famous orchestral numbers and two tunes. The program Tuesday will be the famous Fifth Symphony, by Tschakowski. The second orchestral number will be the Lalla Rookh Suite, by Kroeger, and the third, by Chopin, by Fann-houer Overture, by Wagner.
Reserved seats for the concert went on sale this morning at the Registrar's office and the Round Corner Drug Store. In order to permit every one to attend the concert and test out the impression made by this orchestra, Dean Butler has placed the price of the tickets from fifty cents to $1.
On this trip the orchestra will be made up of sixty players, ten more than played with the Miamiapolis Symphony. The soloists accompanying the orchestra are Leonora Allen, and Charles E. Galagher, basso.

Two Freshmen Speculate
First Neophile: "Which is the biggest game of chance,—1 in 1,000 or 1 in 83?"
Second Neophite: "If I know what
second Neophite got the statistics I
might tell you."
F. N.: "Well, it's like this: the women on the Hill are having a big party and dance in the Gym Saturnus, but I will be there and will ask a man as a guest. Those figures? Well, there are 1,000 women in K. U., and only one can take me, but—I know only 83 women and may try to persuade me. Now what chance have I?"
S. N.: "Well, since the W. A. A. has opened the dance to all of the University, I'd say you had a pretty good chance."
War Cartoons
Prof. William S. Hekking, of the department of drawing and painting, discussed "War Cartoons" at the Woman's Forum yesterday afternoon. He spoke of cartoons and posters being the result of necessity as in England where they were used to awaken the conscience of the nation to the
need of men for the army and navy. Mr. Hekking showed that cartoons reflect the character of the times and the nation, as well as more serious examples, in the island were of a humorous type and ridiculed the enemy because in England the war situation was not taken seriously. In France, where the war struck the hardest blow, the cartoons condemned Germany's cartoons revenge the contempt which the country felt toward other nations.

DONT DESPOIL THE LILACS!
Careless Spirit of Vandalism Ruining K. U.'s Beautiful 39-Year-Old Hedge
"It it seems such a pity to see our beautiful lilac hedge despoiled," said Mrs Esterly, secretary, to one of the most charming features of our campus and we need to create some sort of public opinion about it so people will think a long time before doing anything to mar its beauty."
The lilac hedge is thirty-nine years old and is just now coming to its full beauty. The new shrubbery which has been set out this spring will require a long period of care and cultivation. The lawn is not checked," said Mrs. Beech "our new shrubs will have difficulty in surviving."
Automobiles full of people have been seen to stop by the hedge and the people have filled not only their arms but their cars as well. Little children thoughtlessly tear off bouquets. Strong sentiment on the part
"I like to keep the kiddies picking liacs," said Prof. J. W. Evans of the department of journalism. "No 'Keep Off the Grass' signs should apply to them. They can't pick enough liacs to hurt the hedge; but students can hurt it, though I don't think they will do it if they stop and think."
