THE DRAMATIC CRITIC REPORTS THE FOLLIES
He Goes Early and Gets a Good Seat Down in the Front
Row
APPROVES ALL THE ACTS
Is Especially Pleased With the Chorus in the Last Number
The Dramatic Critic sat between an engineer and a Sorority Girl and joined in their comments on the events of September 2013, ideas did not always coincide, but what is vaudievale for if not to please all classes and tastes. The conversation drifted along in a desutitory touch, touching on reasons I drei-
Engineer: Everyone must be afraid he will lose his seat if he comes on time; here it's half an hour and we can best seats in the house are taken.
Girl: I know that there will be more than 2,000 people here.
Critic: Yes, the present indications point to a good house tonight, and I am glad the students appreciate the girls. The girls have put in on this program.
Engineer: Well, I wish they would hurry up and give us a chance to appreciate the acts. Here comes Shofal's stal's Orchestra. Hope they will play some lovely music during the intermissions.
Girl: I've danced to their music lots of times and—
Engineer: Keep still! Here go the lights for the first act. For the love of Mike, who are those that Jewel had that djewelry such singing. That was a pretty good song, but Samantha, Malinda, and Clarina kinda got their names mixed when they sang about the pockets in them. But then—they were from Eudora.
Critic: I think you have reference to the French pantomime Pierrot and Robert, but not to the movie Dear John.
Girl: I know those three; they are Erik Jackson, Helen Cohen, and Nell DeHart. Now, that dance of Helen Clark's and Earl Metcalf reminds me of something I saw in Vanity Fair, but I can't remember it.
Pierretter, and this is a good rendition. Engineer: Who is that engineer that Ain't Got Nobody" to? He sure is getting red. His eyes are better than mine are, for I can't recognize her. For the love of Mike look at "Roc' Stubbs, the barber, and those Barber Shop Laffers. They sure look natural. And Kenneth Lott's line of producer would work on anybody.
Critic: This next turn, "Down Honolulu Way," should be fine, and, to tell the truth, it is really what I came to see.
Girl: Oh, isn't Helen Clark stunned? And Frank McFarlane storms just as natural as life in acting "A Queer Name." There's Otto Bittmer who is a comedy star and that's what sketch and he sure has caught the trend of politics here at K. U.

A good place to make your headquarters. Particularly desirable for ladies—being on Petticoat Lane—the center of the shopping district.
Convenient to all theatres. Excellent cafe in connection.
Let us figure on that next banquet.
Girl: Oh, aren't those costumes dear? And the light make me feel just as if I were in Hawaii. I think Lucile Elmore is the cutest cinder, don't you. She looks just like a little Hawaiian girl.
Critic: Yes, that was certainly a clever act, but I like this coon stuff that's coming. Phil Hayes has had professional training and knows every song that has ever come out. He is the most beautiful singer in the way and new songs in the old way.
Girl: I've been waiting for this last act for the girls have told me how swell it will be. Jane Parmeter is so graceful in her dancing. I wish she had a phone to call Ellison's voice sweet and clear? Oh, here comes Dora Lockett in her specialty act. Doesn't she make the quintest and most charming Chin Chim? Why don't you say something? Why? I think it is the best thing yet.
Critic: Yes, and I do too. The chorus is what I've been watching. They are beautifully gowned and are trained to professional standards. All three scenes are exceptionally good, but the steps and costumes of the first are the daintest. One would think that Marie Buchanan and Antoinette Clark were raised on the stage—the dance with such grace and abandon. Almost always worn in uniform is well balanced and acted and suits all classes and tastes, which after all, is the purpose of vanilley.

Engineer: Yes, this is the best lift-engineer. The old airdome ceiling was ever gone.

NAVY WANTS STUDENTS FOR MEDICAL CORPS
Chances Unusual for Hospital Training in First Line of
Defense
There is a big opportunity for men who have had any hospital work to enlist in the hospital corps of the United States Navy. Since the navy is the first line of defense the greatest part of the first work will fall upon this corps, and advancement is assured those who join early.
The training which a man receives in this branch of the service will enable him to continue it after he returns to civil life. The navy conducts a special training school in charge of medical officers. The course in this school is free although the man learns a trade, receives pay while he is at the school, and his board and all other expenses are paid.
In a special appeal received at the University today the hospital corps of the navy asked for graduates of the University of Kansas as desirable candidates for the work of the corps. In addition, students taking their courses at K. U. the letter calls attention to the fact that these students may enlist in the Naval Defense
