Woman Is Killed When Hit by Car at 13th and Mass.
Matron of Women's Res
Room at University
Meets Fatal
Accident
Mrs. K. H. Buck, of 111 Park street, matron of the women rests on the Hill, was killed at Thirteenth and Massachusetts streets yesterday afternoon about 5 p. m. when she was struck by a Ford driver driven by L. N. Hatch of North Carolina. The police state that Mrs. Buck probably did not see the approaching car, and Mr Hatch is not being held.
Mrs. Buck, who was about 60 years old had two daughters, Mrs. Albert Edie, A.B.'09, of Merrimack Kan, and Mrs. Gabrielle Beyglull of Greybull, Wyo. She has been matron of the women's rest rooms at the University for a number of years, and was well known among the public for her optimism and good nature.
The following characterization of her is taken from the spring number of the Orad Magazine, 1925:
"In one of the buildings on the Hill there's a little old lady whose duty is to pick up what others drop out of the house and to keep things spick and span.
"As she goes about her mental tasks, we hear her always humming—humming—and singing happily to herself.
"I wish that I could take things as cheerfully as that little old lady does," one girl remarked as she stop told me. "She was relating which she was relating to her friend to gaze at the woman moving here and there picking up papers and straightening furniture, and inquiring as to the ownership of lost art."
"As she hums to herself one catch a refrain of some concert number of the night before, or some bit of a song of the present day, but usually they are from the old hymskals. There does not seem to be any blue Mondays for her, or any "off days." She is the same, Always!
"There's a *n* far away book in her eyes which seems to mean that their owner's thoughts are not of the troubles of thin world but on plain memories—they must be placed in hums—but some all day long.

This program was very successful here last year. On the regular course is included a concert by the Russian Symphonic Choir, consisting of 21 voices. The members of the choir will be in its traditional costume, and the program will possibly include that of the Ukrainian Chorus, which we have two seasons ago.

Press critics have paid many compliments to the concert artists who are to appear on the 1925 course. Orchestra Choir: "The choir impressed one with its remarkable excellence as a unit. And how perfect the tenor solo in 'Sudio,' song by Mr. Creamo; music, half of the West, but so colored and shot through with the emotion that up pictures of sun-drenched bazaars and dancing girls under the moon of the Orient." The New York Herald says of Sascha Jacobsen, Russian violinist who is to appear here March 10: "He has marvelous technique, not only certain, and his intonation is almost beyond reproach. Last night's audience hung at the end of his bow, figuratively speaking."
