High School Track Meet Made Money, Says Ham
For the first time, the state interscholastic track meet paid expenses of operation, announced the department of athletics today. A total of $104.75 was taken in at the gate. Twenty-five cents entrance fee, for each person in each event entered, amounted to more than $100.
Heretofer Manager Hamilton has chalked the loss up to the Loss column of the athletic budget, and regarded it as good advertising for the University, but if K. U. continues to back up its invitations to high school students like this, he says, it will take part of the burden of athletic expense from the football games, which are usually the means of providing for all other athletics on the Hill.
Scenery for "Electra" Built in Kansas City
The design for the facade of a Greek palace, to be used in the play "Electra," to be presented on the Hill June 5, have been finished by the department of architectural engineering and will be sent to Kansas Cilt, Mo., to be built by stage crafters there.
"The stage settings," said Prof. Arthur MacMurray, "are to combine beauty and the correct historical atmosphere. We can say truthfully we are striving for a production of finished excellence."
The chorus for "Electra" is rehearsing every Monday and Wednesday and the speaking cast is rehearsing almost every day.
The cast is composed of the most talented members of the club. There will be a chorus of fifteen voices from the School of Fine Arts and an orchestra of eightpieces, including the Kansas City Symphony. Orchestra
The music has been composed especially for the play by Prof. C. S. Skilton of the School of Fine Arts and it will be produced under his direction. His last tow compositions were offered first in Minnesota and in St. Louis, but Lawrence will have
the first performance of his latest work, which was highly recommended by Miss Margaret Angelini on her recent visit to Lawrence. Miss Angelina produced "Electra" under her own management in New York last winter.
The music is of the style of grand opera, part of it used as the accompaniment of the chorus and part with the lyric recitations of the actors.
Professor Arthur MacMurray is the dramatic director and he is said to expect a performance equal in interest to the Coburn Players with the added feature of the music. The cast and chorus are.
Electra ... Florence Butler.
Chrysothemis ... Marguerite Adams.
Clytemnestra ... Alphilde Larsen.
Orestes ... Craig Kennedy.
