COPY N. Y. SCENERY FOR "UNDER COVER"
Play of Surprises Will Have Correct Setting for Experienced Cast
A wide-awake play with snap anp punch, one given by a cast chosen by competitive try-out of seventy-five people, and one that will follow the minutest detail of the original New York Playhouse, which is offered in "Under Cover," the play that is by the Dramatic Club at the Bowersock Theater February 28.
"The story is crammed full of action and surprises," said Professor MacMurray this morning. "The plot is not unaveled until the last, and it

has never failed to thrill the audience. This year's production, in my opinion, will set a new water mark for University dramas. I have never worked with a better college cast—and I have directed a lot of them. All the people have ability and experience and they fit their parts."
Ada Dykes, who appeared in the "Witching Hour" last year, will take the leading role. Frank McFarland and Otto Dittmer will have prominent parts in the play. They appeared together in "The Man From Home" two years ago. Helen Clark, who will be the lead vocalist of Staff of Laughter, last year, will interpret an important part in the play. The comedy role in "Under Cover" will be carried by Alton Gumbiner, author of "Coping the Grapes."
Over in old North College the scenery for "Under Cover" is being prepared by two scenic artists. They are duplicating, line for line, the original New York production in three complete settings.
"The curtain is going up at exactly 8:15 o'clock," declared Professor MacMurray. "Those coming in late will not be ushered to their seats until after the first act. Heretofore this rule has never been enforced in University productions, but it is going to be this time."

ALL UNIVERSITY URGES MONTHLY CONVOCATION
"Why not have a convocation?" That is a question that many students at the University are asking. The last all-University convolution was held before the holidays and, according to Miss Minnie Moodie, secretary to Chancellor Strong, no date has been fixed for one in the future. Miss Moodie explained that University officials would be expected to announce a convocation for February, since Merchants' Week, the special convocation for women, and the holidays in honor of Lincoln and Washington came in this month.
Band, Dramatic and Glee Club Entertainments Would Vary Formal Program
Convocations should be held at least twice a month, and students
But the students seem to feel that there should be a convocation at least once or twice a month, despite the fact that other things are going on "Nothing can take the place of experience" and the consent of the sophomore class, when asked his opinion in regard to the matter. "We cannot expect to retain the K. U. spirit if the students of the different schools are not given an opportunity to meet together occasionally and feel that they have an interest in their school." Without this opportunity there is certain to be jealousy and clamishness developed within the different schools. There ought to be a healthy University spirit pervading the entire campus, but this can never be as long as we don't attempt to separate groups each striving within itself for its own interests.
It seems generally agreed among the students that convoction should be held regularly in spite of other things that might intervene, but not because they are supposed to convoction should be scheduled. Wint Smith, football man, when asked his opinion, stated that he would like to see class starts at 8 a.m., and have half an hour each day, from ten until ten-thirty, given over to chapel. "That is important," said Smith, "because a day a day is ordinarily wasted," said Smith, and would give that opportunity of meeting together which is so necessary to develop the University spirit which K. U. is rapidly losing." Smith would make the conference more memorable, and then more of the recreational spirit. "The students want more entertainment and less singing of the doxology and repeating the Lord's prayer," according to Smith, "and if given what they want they will turn out for a large number as they now turn out for the conversions that are held."

should have more part in them, according to Mona Clare Huffman, president of the W. S. G. A. Practically the same idea was expressed by Alton Gumbler, senior law, who least once a month, and a part of the meetings turned over to the different classes and student organizations. Warren Wattles, chairman of the social committee of the junior class, would give the Bander, Glee Club, and the Club a part in the conventions.
So the opinions run. Some hold one idea, and some another, all agree that some sort of a convocation is needed to unify the student body, and all agree that such meetings should be not more than a month apart.
