Page 2 University tellly Kansan Friday. Nov. 16. 1965 Law Review Takes Large Effort One of the fine accomplishments of the School of Law is the preparation of the Kansas Law Review by the students and faculty. The second number will be available in a few weeks, according to Tom Payne, Olathe, third year law student and editor-in-chief. There are two purposes of the Law Review: 1. To give its subscribers the new legal developments as they currently appear in Kansas. 2. To give the students an opportunity to specialize in some phase of law. The students dedicate many hours in preparing the review. One student estimated that he spent more than 50 hours on one article. Many journalists feel that they are the only people who have to slave over editing copy. However, before the Law Review is a finished product it goes through many revisions. Payne said he felt the Law Review is one of the most exhaustive publications attempted by any law school in the country. Ex-President Harry S. Truman and Sen Joseph R. McCarthy (R-Wis.) will contribute to the March issue, according to Payne. The former president will review "The Presidency Today" by Edward S. Corwin and Louis W. Koenig. The current issue of 142 pages is an example of the quality of the product that is published by the Kansas Law Review, Inc., which is a member of the National Conference of Law Reviews. Four lead articles appear in the current edition, two by University law professors, one by a Kansas judge and another by a University of Buffalo law professor. The student editorial board actually writes a large part of the review. It is responsible for the sections on comments and case notes. It publishes the journal four times a year. The editors of the review gather material in Topeka from Atty. Gen. John Anderson Jr. on interpretations of important current problems in the state. One such problem discussed in the October issue is segregation in public swimming pools. Although primarily aimed at lawyers, the Review would be valuable to all students interested in the legal world. David Webb I am a foreign student from Italy and I would like to put some questions to Tom Sawyer for his article about the play "Harlequin, Servant of Two Masters." 3) Is he qualified to speak about Carlo Goldoni and how his plays are to be played, if he does not know anything about Carlo Goldoni? Against Review 1) How many plays by Goldoni did he see? 2) How much about the commedia dell'arte does he know? I am awfully sorry to say that Tom Sawyer in his article did not write one right comment about the performance and the actors. This play is not "a true museum piece." It was translated into seven languages and only in Germany it was adapted ten times. The translation is wonderful, it even respected the atmosphere and the witticism of the dialect of Venice. Carlo Goldoni was the first who did not write "commedie dell'art" and for his revolution in the theater he is considered the father of the modern plays. When I listened to Mr. Pierce playing in English, I felt the sensation of listening to the dialect of Venice; yes, dialect of Venice, because, if Tom Sawyer does not know and I am sure he doesn't, the part of Harlequin in the original script is written in dialect. were three cruisers and four other destroyers. Their appearance spoiled the holiday weekend for Navy and civilian suppliers. The seven ships issued "hundreds of requisitions for fuel, spare parts and provisions," the Navy said. It was impossible for the actors to rely upon the costumes because they were not the right ones under many points of view. This, we can say, was the only excusable fault. Sarah Waddel was Smeraldina, as Goldoni created the character. It was a part of the Navy's "accelerated schedule" to improve America's defenses in the Pacific during the Middle East crisis. (The Daily Kansan welcomes letters to the editor on any topic or of any opinion provided that they are in good taste. They must be limited to 300 words and must be signed. The Daily Kansan prefers to use the name of the letter writer, but will use a pen name if the writer so desires. It reserves the right to use or reject letters for publication as it sees fit, and the right to edit and cut.) I can go on speaking about each actor and my words will say the contrary of what Sawyer wrote in his article. I think I know many things about Goldoni, Venice and the period in which Goldoni lived. I know that you can find in Venice nowadays the same characters described by Goldoni and so perfectly played by the University Theatre, The carriers Yorktown and Shangri-La steamed through the Golden Gate on Tuesday and were expected at Pearl this weekend. The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City has the most extensive collection of art in the western hemisphere. Fabio C. Carniel Trieste, Italy graduate student I am sorry to say that Tom Sawyer is not an honor to the University Daily, Kansan staff. I will laugh at Tom Sawyer if he can call himself a critic in the theatre field. KANSAS CITY, Mo. — (UP) — A group of Kansas City scientists has discovered a way to spread a national alarm, such as would be needed in case of enemy attack, through the nation's electric power relay system. Since 98 per cent of the nation's population is served by electric power lines, the scientists believed it would be the simplest way of spreading an alarm. It would be sounded by small buzzzles installed in electrical outlets in homes and offices. A signal passed through utility networks would activate the buzzzzs. The idea was originated at the Midwest Research Institute in Kansas City, Mo., and was demonstrated to scientists, civil defense officials and electric power officials. PEARL HARBOR—(UP)—Pearl Harbor was teeming with more combat-ready warships today than at any time since World War II. The system officially is known as the national emergency alarm repeater and is abbreviated as near. It has been operated successfully the past two months in Midwest's Research Laboratories, without affecting even critical research instruments. The attack aircraft carrier Philippine Sea steamed into Pearl Harbor with four destroyers as her escorts. Propose Alarm Against Attack "This demonstration setup has proved the system to be efficient and reliable," said Harold Stout, of electrical engineering at Midwest. "In order to evaluate it further, it is now necessary to extend the experimental work to a larger load system, eventually reaching the point of satisfactorily signalling a city of 50,000 to 100,000 population. "Conceivably, the entire country could be warned of an enemy attack by initiating the signal at a single point." Mr. Stout said.

The popular name for "Agave americana" comes from a belief that it flowers once following a century of growth. Actually the spiky yellow cluster sometimes appears after only five years, says the National Geographic Society. Death invariably follows the blossoming. Taffy pulling is an art in Kano, Nigeria, says the National Geographic Society. The African candy makers prepare a mixture of sugar, water, honey, and almonds, and stretch it vigorously from iron hooks set high in a tree trunk. After the confection hardens, it is hawked through the streets in open trays. In Kansas City It's . . .
