Dramatic company may produce English plays here
The University of Kansas may have, a Gilbert and Sullivan performing opera company by next semester.
John Bush Jones, acting assistant professor of English, and his wife Sandra, a graduate student in art history, are attempting to organize a KU dramatic company specifically intended to produce the plays of the 19th century English dramatists.
An introductory, informational meeting is scheduled for 7:30 p.m., Nov. 6, in the Kansas Union Forum Room, Jones said. All interested persons are invited.
Application forms for production staff positions will be given out at the meeting.
Jones said the first production of the new company will be staged March 5-9, 1969. The premiere play, "The Mikoado,"
will be presented in Strong Hall Auditorium.
The Mount Oread company hopes to present a different Gilbert and Sullivan opera each semester, Jones said.

Faster reading and improved studying are available for the asking—to students who enroll in the KU reading clinic by Friday, according to Ted R. Garten, program director.
Garten said the Reading and Study Skills Clinic will accept registrants through Friday in 102 Beiley Hall for both the speed reading and the study skills courses.
The non-credit, non-fee courses will begin Nov. 4 for the study skills class and Nov. 5 for the rapid reading course, he said.
The study skills course will meet twice a week in discussion groups of 10 to 15 members. It will cover skills necessary for successful college work: budgeting time, note taking, preparation for and writing of exams, use of the library and vocabulary development.
Garten said the study skills course basically is designed for freshmen and sophomores but any student may enroll.
The rapid reading course will meet three times a week and is designed to help the student improve his reading speed and expand his reading flexibility. The course statistically doubles the textbook reading rate, Garden said.
