WATER CARNIVAL
TUESDAY, MAY 20, 1924
Something new and different in the line of artistic, athletic or rather aquatic endearoy is about to descend upon the campus in the form of a water carnival.
The scene of the event will be in the pool in Robinson gymnasium. It is being presented under the direction of the department of physical education. The playlet which forms the basis of the spectacle takes its theme from the life of the legendary water maiden, "Undine." The adaptation of the passages for use in the water play were made by a University student.
The carnival will in a measure take the place of the old May fete. It embodies much of the same spirit and uses much the same sort of talent that is used in a May day festival.
A venture of this sort, being the work of the students and faculty of the University) deserves the unequalified support of the student body.
"Rain Saturday and Monday No Match Back Tuesday—George Glasskinn." read a telegram received by the Kansan. Pretty hard luck when a fellow has to come clear back to Lawrence for some dry matches.
SECOND CLASS
The leading players of the Obernamerung Passion Play, Anton Lang, who portrays Christ, Andreas Lang, portrayer of Peter, and Guido Mayr, who takes the part of Judas, sailed to their Bavarian home Thursday in second class cabins, despite the protests of their friends who wished to furnish the money required for first class passage.
It seems that the people of the United States have lost interest in the physical needs of the people of Europe. At Christmas time it comes to them more forcefully that there is need in the world and it is the place of the rich and well-to-do to give, but in the months between they forget. Their Christmas charity is much like the Sunday religion of a great many people.
These men have been in the United States attempting to collect money to aid the post-war sufferers of their country, but on the whole their triumph has not been successful.
The nation will observe Memorial day in reverence for the dead. The students will observe it as usual—cramming for the next day's catastrophe.
FATIGUE
Two French physiologists believe they have discovered ointments which applied to the skin, will delay fatigue
Immediately the thoughts of weary students turn to consideration of the marvelous opportunities this discovery would present with finals coming on. No need to resort to coffee to keep awake for all-night cramming. Just rub on some salve and still be bright and fresh in the morning.
And for both students and teachers this cointment would prove a wonderful blessing. Imagine being able to keep a whole class awake for a whole period!
Serenaders could be really enjoyed by the young troubadours as well as by the drowning listeners, if they were comfortably aware of the fact that the dear old ointment would enable them to meet the demands of the next day's work.
But after all, even if students had
all this extra time and energy with which to think, what in the world would most of them ever find to think about? And besides the introduction of this invention would destroy most of the University's most rigidly adhered to student traditions. Three cheers for the status quo.
In Ossining, N. Y., the fire chief was arrested for speeding to a fire last Sunday and the town is aroused to a fury of discussion regarding the relative dangers of racing and conflagration.
HO. HUM
The same day the Chicago police were called out to quell a riot in the Salem Baptist church, where two raffal factions had discovered that they could not practice brotherly love in the same house of worship.
It is indeed encouraging to notice these evidences that law enforcement is progressing efficiently as well as public utilities and religion.
Some of us did not know there was so much geography, until they started to fly around the globe.

The University of Kansas hopped across the Bowersights last night and alighted on the Bowersocks stage. Although it was hard to recognize Kansas after the leap, "Funk insurance" by Suzanne Moody, c24, carried across an intrigue of local humor with success.

Pansy wonders why the book with so many bibliographies in its appendix does not get appendicitis.
At The Theater
The actors who represented K. U. were at first a bit afraid of acting natural, but by the end of the second act one began to feel sure that the character was well-trained. The chief contributor to genuine drama in last night's performance was Lloyd Rappenthal. In the role of Dave, the law student, he used a good stage presence, a powerful voice, an appreciation of lines, to advantage.
Don B. Stetler with the "up-and-down" college man, Bert Jackson, the kid who helped trainying the despair of a flunking man. His dialogue with his father
Jerry and Bob, Melvin Griffith and Theodore Hiebert, the rest of the college men, who along with Dave helped Burt out of trouble, romped through a succession of colliquial remarks with ease, after they had forgotten merely to say lines as they did in the beginning of the first act.
Isabel, Louise Saltmarsh, along with her two touches of local color, Jane and Betty, Laura Cowdery and Frances Keith, was the heroine. She was at her best in her scene with Dave in the third act.
Amongst the rest of the students, there was of course a couple of freshmen, Ralph Green and Ray Fraker. Perhaps their acting made the poor "fresh" out a bit too umph, but they were entertaining. Fraker in his one entrance and exit gained a flash of ridiculous sublimity.
The other two character parts, Mrs. Seward, the chaperon, and Mr. Jackson, Bert's father, both created a commendable amount of characteristics for themselves, although their lines were few.
Socrates, Kenneth Alexander, Bert's tutor, was an old "nur." His interpretation of the part lacked only in power of voice. Maybe he had a
The customers of the place of business," Frances Rost and Ralph Green, added their touch of local color to the show.
The finished production showed the effect of Margaret Larkin's good direction. And, oh yes, consolations to Elizabeth Martin.
And by the way, Miss Blanche Eckles swings a wicked typewriter. There were parts in the show that might have been settled upstairs, but as a whole it was successful, and a credit to the senior class.
Carson-Newman College of Jefferson City, Term, probably has the tallest basketball player in the United States. He is seven feet two inches tall, and is ranked as the best center in the state.
