Middle row, Lee MacMorris, Hutchinson senior, Duke Howze, Kansas City, Kan., senior, Tom Engel, Kansas City, Mo., sophomore, John Husar, Chicago, Ill. sophomore, and Bill Kuhlke, Denver,
Colo., graduate student. Top row, Cesareo Pelaez, Cuba graduate student, Ken Baker, Helmetta, N.J., sophomore, and Dick Borgen, Lawrence sophomore. The bottom three reflections in the mirror are those of Sara Davis, Kansas City, Mo., senior, Susan Woodruff, Lawrence junior, and Mrs. Eda Brent, Lawrence special student. The top reflection in the mirror is of Ted Morris, Wichita sophomore.
In This Class, You Just Face It
Give them a blob of nose putty, a strand of crepe hair, plenty of grease paint and watch them go. And go they did when a Daily Kansan photographer visited the makeup room in Fraser Theater.
This class in Theater Makeup is conducted by Jack Brooking, associate professor of speech and drama. Each week Dr. Brooking teaches the students how to work on a different type of face, such as a fat face, thin face, old face, etc.
Then the class begins to build up various parts of the face through the use of nose putty and cotton and collodion. The students have also worked on adding hair, beards and moustaches with creme hair.
Dr. Brooking tells the class what type of face he wants them to put on, and then lets them design and apply it to themselves.
Imaginations Run Wild
Recently he asked for witches, ghouls and demons. The students' imaginations went to such extremes that a Daily Kansan photographer was rushed in to capture the scene for posterity.
Undoubtedly, the biggest personal change was made by Sara Davis, Kansas City. Mo. senior, who created a new jaw to round out her ghoul's makeup. Duke Howze, Kansas City, Kan. senior, experimented with crepe hair.
Tom Engel, Kansas City, Mo., sophomore, painted half of his face blue and the other half a bright red. He looked like a devil who couldn't make up his mind. John Husar, Chicago sophomore, tried a
lavendar-colored skin with a broken nose that hung on one side of the face.
The best nose putty job, however, was done by Bill Kuhlke, Denver. Colo. graduate student, who created a realistic elongated nose that looked like a Victorian comedy mask.
Important Part Of Show
Theater Makeup is a one-hour course that meets every Tuesday afternoon in the left of Fraser Theater. It is designed to help people interested in the theater to realize the importance of a good makeup to the effectiveness of a show. The course teaches students to create, design, and apply a proper makeup.
Dr. Brooking lectures and demonstrates the new methods of creating makeup. Each student designs makeup for one University Theatre production.

Woodruff To Become Big 7 Representative
Laurence C. Woodruff, dean of students, will become KU's faculty representative to the Big Seven athletic conference June 1.
Griffith Blames Parties For Ballot Stuffing
Dean Woodruff will replace Dean T. DeWitt Carr of the School of Engineering and Architecture who has filled that position the past eight years.
The blame for stuffing ballots in last Wednesday's general election has been put squarely on the shoulders of the political parties by Tom Griffith, Pratt senior and chairman of the Election Committee.
"You can't put the blame anywhere else." Griffith said in an interview. "These things would never happen if the parties would combine the power they have with a little responsibility."
"Responsibility by the parties and poll workers are the only ways an election can be held honestly," he said. "Maybe the students and the parties should lose the privilege to vote."
Griffith said this year's episode at the Fraser Hall and Student Union polls were "stupid attempts" at stuffing.
609 Ballots Invalid
Griffith, who has worked on the Election Committee for the last four years, recalled the previous year's troubles as examples of "poor student and poor party responsibility."
In the spring of 1954, the first year for Party of Greek Organizations and Allied Greek-Independent the general election results were thrown out as a result of circumstances similar to this year's. The controversy arose when 63 ballots were declared invalid. Last Wednesday 609 ballots were thrown out.
In 1955 a controversy over 83 ballots that were unaccounted for at Fraser, nearly caused that election to be void.
Last year an undetermined number of votes were thrown out by the committee after noticing they were obviously stuffed.
Selects Poll Workers Griffith described the method o
each party in selecting poll workers:
"POGO asks its houses to furnish poll workers. AGI asks for volunteers at a party meeting. Neither party checks the people that sign up and consequently the trouble this year centered around a mixup in the AGI poll workers.
"The poor organization of the parties is to blame here. Both parties have the time to check on their poll workers. It is not a function of the election committee to check up on everything the parties are supposed to do."
Griffith stressed the importance of a stiff penalty for offenders of the voting regulations. He said he was not sure as to ASC stipulations concerning illegal voting actions, but that he was sure the penalty was not stiff enough.
"Anyone can raise the money for a fine; but not many people will want to risk their college education on such petty antics," he said.
"There is definitely a chance for a responsible group of poll workers, but the key to a successful election rests with the political parties. It seems to me that the political parties would want to have an honest election, but they haven't proved it yet."
Campus News Briefs Former Student Clinic Told How Wins Moot Case To Write Releases
Ralph B. Kelley, of Marysville, a 1956 graduate of K.U. succeeded in his first court experience during the recent moot court competition at the New York University School of Law. He and his partner will now enter the quarter-final competition to be held next fall.
Mr. Kelley is a student in the Root-Tilden Scholarship Program of New York University. Each year through this program-20 scholarships are awarded throughout the nation to young men who have demonstrated academic excellence in their college work and potential for public service. The scholarships amount to $7,000 each
Service Fraternity Elects Officers

Films Feature Music, Nature
"Pacific 231" is one of three films to be shown at 4 p.m. Wednesday in 3 Bailey. It is based on the symphonic composition of the same title by the Swiss composer, Arthur Honegger, and is a visualization of the journey of a locomotive across the French countryside.
"All Things Flow" is an experimental film presenting the constant beauty of nature—the sea, clouds, and forest.
The film "Sailing to the Cape," depicts a trip aboard a 4-masted sailing vessel from Karlshamm, Sweden to Capetown, South Africa.
How to write news releases "that are used" was explained by Emil L. Telfel, associate professor of journalism, at the fourth annual Association Management clinic Friday in the Student Union.
Prof. Telfel was the only University faculty speaker on the program. Other speakers were Miss Minita Westcott, owner of Storms and Westcott, a Chicago trade association management firm; Howard Upton, executive secretary of the National Assn. of Oil Equipment Jobbers, Tulsa, OKa.; George P. Lamb, trade association attorney from Washington, D.C., and Harry Hites Jr., sales director of the Kiplinger Magazine, Washington, D.C.
The 2-day clinic was sponsored by University Extension, the Missouri Assn. of Mutual Insurance Agents, Kansas Bankers Assn., Kansas Savings and Loan League, and the Kansas Bar Assn.
Honor Society Initiates Docking
Gov. George Docking was initiated Thursday as an honorary member of Beta Gamma Sigma, national honor society for business administration.
Gov. Docking, the first honorary member chosen by the KU chapter since before World War II, was recognized for his accomplishments in the field of banking and public service.
There was no chapter at KU when the governor was an undergraduate.
Correction
The names of Lois Alberg, Topeka senior, Kathryn Keeler, Wichita senior, and Nettie Garber, Lawrence junior, should have been included in the story on high school economics day in Friday's Daily Kansan. Miss Alberg was director, and Miss Keeler and Miss Garber were fashion models of the show.
A reddish-brown oil exuded from hippopotamus skin glands gave rise to the ancient legend that the beast "sweats blood." The secretion keeps skin plant under the broiling African sun and serves as a water repellent.
