Massive Choir Gives Dynamic Performance

There is a thrill in hearing 500 voices blended together for sounds that march away, never to be heard again. The voices, coupled with 16 timpani resounding from the orchestra, gave a dynamic quality that vibrated the building.
The Sunday afternoon production of the "Grande Messe des Morts," a requiem by Hector Berlioz, will be unequaled for some time.
Dynamic direction of Clayton Krebhiel, assistant professor of music education, held the massive group together. Although he was called back by the applause of the choir, orchestra and audience, he did not take a bow.
F. A. Davison, instructor of voice, sang the tenor solo in "Sanctus." His brilliant voice gave a feeling of holiness to the song.
The audience could feel the wrath and tears in "Dies Iae" and "Locry-mosa" depicted by the timpani. Beautiful singing and interesting counterparts were coupled in "Quaerens Me." The brilliance of the familiar strains of "Rex Treemendae" was shown by the choir as well as the orchestra.
"Agnus Dei" made a beautiful end to a beautiful performance.

Lawyers Hold 4 Mock Trials
Four trials, real in every detail except for the use of hypothetical cases, were the culmination of the trial practice class in the School of Law, taught by M. C. Slough, professor of law and newly appointed dean of the School.
The trials were held last week at the County Courthouse, with the 25 members of the class demonstrating what they had learned by taking the various positions of either defending or prosecuting a case.
The trials ended Friday night. Two were criminal cases and two were civil cases. Class members were divided into teams of three for the purpose of handling the presentation of one side of a case. They were given the list of facts concerning the case, and were to present it as best they could.
Members of the School of Law faculty who served as judges were Prof. Slough, Charles H. Oldfather Jr., associate professor of law; Earl B. Shurtz, visiting associate professor of law, and William R. Scott, associate professor of law.
First-year law students served as jurors for the trials, and a number of University students acted as witnesses.
Clarence Koch, 36, a son, Allan, 8, and a friend, Jack Ryan, 65, of Marysville were setting out a trot line from a boat when Mr. Koch noticed that two other sons, 6-year-old Bryan and 7-year-old Daryl, had fallen from the river bank into the water.
MARYSVILLE—(UP)—A young father and three of his seven sons drowned in the Blue River near here while setting out a trotline Sunday.
Marysville Father, 3 Sons Drown
Mr. Ryan said Mr. Koch rowed to where the two boys were struggling in the river and jumped in, upsetting the boat. The boat apparently struck Mr. Koch and the boys on the head knocking them unconscious. Mr. Ryan was the only survivor.

John Hedley, Coffeyville senior, was recovering in Watkins Memorial Hospital today from injuries sustained Saturday morning when he was caught between a wall and a $2\frac{1}{2}$-ton 105 mm. howitzer in the basement of the Lawrence Army Training Center.
According to Dr. Beatrice Lins of Watkins Hospital, Hedley received bruises of the thigh and hand. There was no information as to how long Hedley would be in the hospital.
Capt. Bruce Nielsen of the Lawrence Army Reserve Advisory Station, described the accident as follows:
"Four of us, including John, were moving the howitzer from one corner of the basement to the washrack about 9:20 a.m. Saturday to clean the gun. The gun got out of control and we couldn't stop it. John was on the end rolling toward the wall and he was pinned by the gun to the wall. The gun caught him on his right side.
Mr. Joseph O'Loughlin, father of Nancy O'Loughlin, Hays senior, died Friday in the Russell Hospital. He was the fourth fatality from a head-on collision near Russell.
Capt. Nielsen said it was not the weight of the gun that caused the injury, but the momentum of the gun pushing Hedley against the wall. Hedley was taken to the hospital by Capt. Nielsen.
The father of a University student and the mother of a biology instructor died over the weekend.
Mr. O'Loughlin's wife was injured in the accident and his sister, Miss Margaret O'Loughlin of Hays, also died in the collision.
He is survived by his wife and three daughters, Nancy, Judy, and Mary.

OUR LAWLESS LANGUAGE*
The laws that govern plural words
I think are strictly for the birds.
If goose in plural comes out geese
Why are not two of moose then meesey?
If two of mouse comes out as mice
Should not the plural house be hice?
If we say he, and his, and him
Then why not she, and shis, and shim?
No wonder kids flunk out of schools
... English doesn't follow rules!
MORAL! The singularly plural pleasures of Chesterfield King make a man feel tall as a hice. So don't be a geesel Take your pleasure BIG. Take Chesterfield King. Big length . . . big flavor . . . the smoothest natural tobacco filter. Try 'em.
Chesterfield King gives you more of what you're smoking for!
