Governor Paulen Speaks to Large Crowd Wednesday
Local Post of Legion Aids University in Giving Armistice Day Program
Robinson gymnastics was filled to overflowing Wednesday morning by the large crowd of University students and people of Lawrence attendance. A large group of students put on jointly by the University of Kansas and the local post of the American Legion. Attendance at the memorial program was the largest of any convention this year, and all standing room at the sides of the platform and along the sides and back of the room was occupied. A large number of students, unable to secure an entrance to the auditorium, were turned away.
Two hundred seats at the front of the gymnasium were occupied by members of the American Legion and their families, and by the faculty of the college. A musical program was given, after the opening of the program by Chancellor E. H. Lindley. The University hand of 100 pieces played several special songs, including a fissor of voice of the School of Fine Arts sang "The Phantom Legion."
Pays Tribute to Kansas Men
Governor B. S. Paulen in his addressed paid high tribute to the part played by men of Kansas in the World War. "I am glad to know and to reiterate here the splendid history of nearly 80,000 Kansas soldiers who participated in that terrible conflict." "The student body of the University of Kansas will always be glad to come together on Armistice Day, or on any other patriotic occasion that commemorates the services of the members of the American Legion."
"Not one single page of that history dating from April 6, 1917, to Armistice Day, and until these soldiers in what theater of activity—not one page of the record can be written without mentioning the achievements and glorious records of the soldiers in Kansas," continued Governor Pancho.
"When the President of the United States, Woodrow Wilson, issued his war statement to Congress that 'We are now about to accept the grape of battle with this natural foie to liberty, and shall, if necessary, spend the whole force of the nation to check and control the great state of Kansas responded with her 80,000 stalwart sons to fight the enemy."
Reverence Paid to Dead
Reverent Farm to Rule
“The great democracy of America “The Armymen’ Day” mean more than the definition given by Webster. It was not only a cessation of hostilities; it marked the beginning of an era of world peace, prosperity and happiness that we hope will endure for ages.”
At the close of Governor Paula's speech, taps were sounded by J. C. McMarian, director of the band, following which the assembly stood in silence for one minute in reverence to those who did not return from the battle.
"We are makers," said Governor Paulen, "of the flag. It represents what we think, and feel. The soldiers of the war carried the American flag across the Atlantic and into the very jaws of imperial Germany, not for conquest, but for world peace. Just as its stars and stripes symbolized the union of free states in America, so now they have come to symbolize a more perfect union of nations, striving for goodwill and for justice."
Sigma Tau, honorary engineering fraternity, announces the following pledges: L. W. Miller, c?; T. M. Tayler, c?; Harold Carroll, c?; Cottley Clifford Campbell, c?; Walter Hall, c?; Vinton Yardley, c?; Arthur Copeland, c?; Herbert Pemington, c?; and James Eldridge, c?.

Manager Dickinson's Statement
My Viewpoint On The Theatre Situ-
ation.
It is my understanding that exceptions have been taken to the Management of the Local Theatres on four issues. These four issues are, the price charged the Dramatic Club for the use of the Bowersock Theatre; the fact that we are not having enough Road Shows, the price charged for movies and the statement that better pictures are being shown on the forepart of the week than on the week end. First, I want to make the statement that My Wife, three children and myself came to Lawrence a little over a year ago, with the idea of making Lawrence our home and educating our children here. Since living in Lawrence this length of time we think it the best residence town in Kansas or any other state.
I want the people of Lawrence, as well as the students on the Hill to know that I am working and will continue to work with them and not against them. I want to please the people, and stand ready at any time to take suggestions for the betterment of the shows in this community. I have been striving to make our shows here up to the highest standard, and will not be satisfied until the Bowersock is the most popular theatre in the state. I am continually adding new equipment to make our projection the very best, as well as all other phases that go to make up a good entertainment.
I give you herewith my answers to the four issues under discussion. have made arrangements with Prof Crafton, professor of dramatics, to allow him four shows each season at a rental less than cost. This I am willing to do to help put on these shows so they will set a loss to the Dramatic Department. I understand now with regard to activity tickets being good on these performances but it had not been explained to me previously, and the price I had been giving was figured out on a business basis of our cost plus a reasonable profit.
One thing that might be said here is that Mr. Bowersock owned and had paid for the Bowersock Building, and it was more or less a hobby with him, and he allowed the University to use it with no idea of profit. Since that time the building was sold to Messrs. Ware and Topping, who as I understand it, it did not have an orchestra that they had to pay on the day the theater was rented and did not run on as large an overhead as I do. I bought the Theatre at a much higher price than they had invested, and have interest to figure on this investment, which together with our present overlap makes it impossible for me to meet their price.
With regard to Road Shows. It is true that I had bad a disagreement with the Stage Hands Union, which has in two instances caused us to have road show contracts cancelled. Road Shows are very hard to get for one night stands, and I am doing everything possible to get what shows I can that I know to be of high standard. As most people probably know there is little profit in Road Shows, however I know that I owe it to this community to have them, which I fully intend to do. Two shows booked for the near future and which will questionably fill their dates are a comedy entitled "APPLESAUCE" and "THE GORILLA". Other shows will be booked from time to time.
With reference to the price charge for movies. I feel that the prices charged for the pictures here in Lawrence are in accordance with prices charged in all other cities of equal size in the state. This is taking into consideration the newness of the pictures and the quality of music and service given with them. We have had many fifty cent pictures, many more than the old management. It is true, however, that now there are numerous big pictures being released,

Remember Motto, War to End War, Says E.C. Buehler
Memorial Service Speaker
Admonish Audience
to Keep Faith
With Dead
"We should keep faith with those who gave their lives for a noble cause. That nobile cause was a war to end war," said Prof. E, C. Buehler of the department of speech and the dramatic art in an address at the memorial services in Fraser chapel Wednesday night. Nov. 11.
Preceding Professor Buchler's address, "America" was sung by the audience, followed by worship led by Anna Dorothy Lester. "A Hymn of World Brotherhood" was also sung by the audience.
America Looks into Future
America Looked to Him.
In his address, the Professor Buehler told of the four reasons why we should keep faith with those who gave their lives in that war. He said that is was an American idea as was often expressed by Woodrow Wilson in many of his speeches. "America is fitted for this idea because it cannot be said of the nations of Europe because they think only of the past," said Professor Buehler. The probable destructiveness of the next war should be taken into consideration as the invention of more deadly weapons has taken place. The terrificness of the war and its imminent comparison to that which will probably take place in the next war.
Price of War Has Been Paid
The last reason for keeping it that is because of the price of war, "There have been enough lives lost to populate a whole nation, and the money that has been spent would pay for a home, a school building and a church for every woman, man and child in the United States."
Another reason why we should keep faith is that it is one of the principles of Christianity. Jesus' way was a way to prove that the kingdom of kingsons founded by the strength of physical power of such men as Charlemagne, Alexander the Great, and many others, they did not as did the kingdom of love, but on a foundation of love.
The latter wart of Professor Buehler's address was an appeal to the emotions of his audience. In telling of some of the horrors of war he gave a selection from Kipling's "Boots." A dialogue from *Love and Death* (1945) describes death glloating over an enormous pile of metal identification tags taken from the bodies of dead soldiers. In ending his address Professor Buehler said, "I have tried to say, not what my audience would wish me to say, not what I would like to say, but what I would who made the supremely sacrifice we may have说."

A quartet composed of Guila Gross, Marguerite Flower, Aubrey Popople, and Ray Wright sang Kipling's "Recessional."

Theater Mixup Takes a Turn for the Better
Mr. Dickinson Expresses Desire to Co-operate With University in All Ways
the theater controversy is well on its way to a satisfactory conclusion. At a conference yesterday afternoon, he addressed the audience of the theatre, representatives of the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce and the University, Mr. Dickinson expressed his willingness to put his own interests aside in favor of the stu-
In view of the fact that at the price of $200 a night for the use of the Bowserkers for dramatic club presentations, the amount paid by the audience for the productions, did not have enough adequately to cover other expenses, Mr. Dickinson has agreed to cut the price to $100 a night which will properly serve the purpose of providing to Prof. Allen Crafton, head of the department of dramatic art.
Students May Select Shows

The prices charged for his main feature of the book will power to curb Mr. Dickinson explained, since it is specifically stated on the contracts that the price must not be below 50 cents for the first year, "if the students are willing to wait a few months I can give them cheaper shows," he said, "or I can run cheap shows at the Variety and and the bigger four-star stores at the Bowersock if the situation is for that."
Throughout the conference, Mr. Dickinson expressed his desire to remedy the situation by making students and for their activities," he said, "any time that you need support for your activities you may be sure of men without even a teacher."
