WHAT'S WRONG WITH THE CAMPUS?
We all wonder, perhaps, Most of our have at times thought we knew, and aired our views freely. Last week, our group met on the campus to decide.
A number of theories were advanced there, and a committee was appointed to investigate and later present subjects for further discussion.
Is this group going to do something? Or will it decide what is wrong, and then stop? Unless its purpose is to act, really to change the situation, you start a movement in the direction of that change, it can mean little.
It is refreshing to know that a group of students feels that campus problems are vital enough to deserve serious analysis and consideration, but the results of their discussion can be conserved only when they line up in a concrete program of action.
A COMMUNITY OBLIGATION
As a center of stage attractions and first class theatrical productions Lawrence has been off on a tangent during the past season. In previous years we have had a reasonable number of creditable legitimate productions, but this year their number has been reduced to a minimum.
The reason, we are told by the local theatrical employee" union, is that the manager of the local theaters retires to recognize the local union. All traveling road attractions carry union theatrical crews, and they are not permitted to work in theaters which do not recognize the wine.
The Kusan does not feel that it is in a position to take sides in the union controversy, or needs to do so. But our paint is that Lawrence and the University are not getting a square deal and that they are entitled to a reasonable number of good shows. The local theater people have a certain obligation to the people of the community to provide them with the best shows that may be brought to a town of this size.
We would like to see some settlement made before the beginning of the next season.
YELLOW JOURNALISM
Something is wrong with the newspapers if they will devote three columns on the front page to a world story of crime, and bury vital news of war moment in the advertising on the back pages. But this is just the thing that has happened in the past few days.
Roy S. Turner, a former student of the University, was implicated in an affair in which he is charged with poisoning a woman in order to collect insurance on her. What does the press do but come out with staggering reports of the whole case, digging into the story, Turner, telling nearly everything that could be discovered by a wide-awake reporter.'
The fact that Turner was a former student of K. U. is given great prominence. The accounts say also that the student came here from her failed to make a letter.
All this does not necessarily can discredit on the University, but it does create a bad impression in people who fall to look deeper into the case.
After one has been stared in the face by the elaborate account of the crime, he turns to succeeding pages
one time president of the Chinese re-
and discover that Dr. Sun Yat-sen public, and one of the most striking characters in China's modern struggle for democracy, died recently. Other important items were side-tracked to make room for sordid and salubrious accounts on the first page. No war der the public is losing confidence 1 the press.
Why do young people hate to g
back to their home town?
MY HOME TOWN
Why do young people go back to their home town has been a conversation among seniors, but if all classes of young men and women: "Oh, how I hit go back to that dead town!" These high-lying younger们 have long been blamed by their older townpeople for having such "unhappy" ideas, but it isn't their fault. The reason they hate to return to their home town is that their home town has forgotten them.
This new generation has been away 'rom home and they have seen how other towns are. Many live with the lesire to go back to the old home own and help make it a better place. They want to see it grow; they want to work for it and they will devote
And yet you go home for a visit they find that the old home town hasunk just a little more into the cut of indifference. The same old politician are running the town new that can eat twenty-five years ago. The live young people of a few years ago have grown into the spirit of it, and even their once ambitious souls have been curled and quieted by their elders. And now they too are the elders. They have forgotten their younger days and they cannot understand the actions of the young. They can't understand why the crazy young people like to stay up till midnight or later dancing; they can't understand this thing of not starting a party till sine and ending it with a lunch at the town cafe. They are shocked at the idea of a young man riding twenty miles to have a date with a girl in an adjoining town. It's all very foolish, these ways of the young people. The conservative business man and women of the old home town never did anything like when they were young.
Lives are passed regulating dancing, parties are prohibited and in every way the younger generation is encouraged to go to another town to have its good time or else stay away from the home place forever.
We youngsters are really hurt. Many of us who have planned all our lives to return to the old home town, sometimes, are going elsewhere. Since we have to work for our existence, we might as well do it in a community where we can have some pleasure too.
It's up to the home towns. If they
want the young men and women to
return there they must make the place
attractive to them.
At The Theater
The titular role was taken by Kenneth Cornell. His rendering of the famished poet was quite convincing, and into his lines he breathed a truly poxic favor that created the proper atmosphere for the play. For a stupefied character in Proseh II, his pronunciation and diction were excellent.
The performance of *Gringote Saga* sat in the theater closed a quarter of a century of dramatics for the department of Romance Languages. The plays pries have ranged from the classic 16th-century faries, and only once has the same play been repeated. To judge from the hearty appaired accorded "Gringote" it measured up to the theater's usual height.
King Louis XI, represented by John Allen, was by far the longest stage actor in theatre. Stage stage nearly all the time. To show his modus varying from bonhomie to cruel vildnesses, and at the same time, he acted as a king called for talent of a high order.
Ralph Freese, as Simon Fournice, was an affable bourgeois merchant (also a barber) and the part of the barber-surgeon, Oliver-Ike-Daim, well portrayed the persistence, the violence and the power of the king's villainous counselor.
There were only two feminine parts. As Nicole, the young widowed sister of Simon Fourniez, Madige Wardell scored a distainful success.

OFFICIAL UNIVERSITY BULLETIN
Define the end of the spring semester, fourteen scholarship and twelve loan scholarships are to be awarded, as set forth in the catalog.
APPLICATION FOR SCHOLARSHIP.
In technical skill, spirit, and delicate beauty of melody, the University string quartet's presentation of Haydn's "Opus 75, No. 2" was the outstanding number of the program. In the minuetto a livy, spirited music was played with slow, half-melancholy interudes was succeeded by a drowsy
APPLICATION FOR SCHOLARSHIP;
Students desiring to make application for one of these scholarships should see the chairman of the Committee on Scholarships before March 30, in room 504 Friar, on Mondays, Wednesdays or Fridays, from 11:30 to 12:30, by or appointment. E. GALLOO, Chairman.
The part of Lycee, the young daughter of Simon, was appropriately dressed for a youthful commission the imprinted herself with the audience as well as with the king, and one readily understood why the poet Gretchen should
The opening selection, Ravensboro's "Christus Resuscitex" with Helen Kennedy at the organ, proved to be one of the most brilliant and forecled numbers on the program. The solenic, epic sweep of a quartet of French composers exposed with organ interfaces of lighthouses and swelled to a triumphant flourish in a finale which was executed with kill and accuracy.
The evening's pleasure was heightened by the new stage scenery representing a middle-class home of the 18th century. It was designed by Prof. Allen Crown of the department of dramatic art. Professor Neuen Schneider provided suitable sets, lighting and sound, coached and directed the cast, assisted by other members of the department.

It was with genuine regret that music lovers on the hill saw the series of all-musical veepers by the School of Fine Arts draw to a close Sunday. The program, however, far exceeded their expectations to an interesting and varied course.
legate passage, and rework to the original virginity in the recuperation. The sprightly gaiety of the opening bars of the fringe was susceptible to a selection which was delightfully free from faulty intenation.
Miss Louise Miller sang "Agnus Dei" by Bizel in the Latin vocular with admirable feeling and individuality of style. The clearness and strength of her tones were particularly adapted to the selection. A chordal progression was used, and brasses enhanced the effectiveness of this number. In Pergolae's "Trio for two violins and cello with piano," broadly sustained notes produced by long, even strokes, gave a calm, galent effect to the first two movements. Perhaps the swift, striking rhythms of the closing passure brought forth the finished the most interesting phase of the ensemble.
Fatality, the inevitable fatality of life, was the keynote of Buch's "Strike Thou Hour," a contrasto to MISS Mina Dorn. Miss Dorn's low notes were charming, and their melody produced an atmosphere at once solent and imposing. One felt, however, that she might have given a trifle more of herself to the audience. The closing number, Greig's "Land-Sighting," by the Men's Club, was imitated the men's club's creative attitude of half-adventuresome, half-innovational the song.
The Sooner ride team is preparing to enter the Hearst Trophy match to be fired before April 15. A hand, some trophy is donated by William Randolph Hearst to the winning team. The cup was won last year by the University of Minnesota. The victory score went to Kleinsauer of the University of South Dakota who scored 397 out of a possible 400.
