Iva Kitchell To Dance Tonight
Miss Iva Kitchell, dance satirist,
will be featured in the third presentation of the KU Concert Series at 8:20 tonight in Hoch Auditorium. ID cards will admit students.
Miss Kitchell is a very serious artist who sees how funny very serious artists can be. She has appeared with the Russian Ballet and the Chicago Opera Co., but she burlesques dancers of all schools from the ballerina to the pseudo voo-doo. Her fellow dancers refer to her as "Poison Iva," but they have great admiration for her.
Miss Kitchell was born in Junction City, Kan. When she was small, she was sent to take dancing lessons for her health. She regained her health and soon was dancing professionally.
She impersonates all types of persons seen at parties, in shops or on trains, as well as star figures of the theater and concert stage.
Miss Kitchell is her own author, choreographer, and costume designer. The music for her concerts is provided by Harvey Brown, composer-pianist. Mr. Brown has been touring with Miss Kitchell since she started to give concerts. He is well known as an accompanist and coach for singers, and has composed the music for 10 of the dances in Miss Kitchell's repertoire.
Prof., Which Way Is The Dump?
After returning test papers, a science professor told his class that each student would be entitled to drop one test grade from his average at the end of the semester.
"It looks as if some students will be throwing out tests with averages ranging from 94 to 97." he said as he glanced at his grade book.
From the back of the classroom a disgruntled student asked, "Where do they throw them?"

Chocolate Slips By Vanilla, 3-1
When a journalism class asked its instructor to take them to the Student Union for class, he agreed on the condition that they buy him four milkshakes. Taking the condition lightly, the class agreed.
"We are working to make a bigger production of the festival this year," said Dr. Jack Brooking, assistant professor of speech and drama. "In the past, school representatives have come to the festival, presented their work, and gone home to wait for awards. We plan this year to give them their awards while they are here."
Speech, Drama Festival Planned
Forty minutes and four milk shakes later, the class broke up for their 10 a.m. classes. The score: Chocolate 3 Vanilla 1.
The festival contestants are not given prizes for their work, but are judged according to quality. First prize is a rating of superior, second place is excellent. It was proposed that medals be given the top ranking groups, or individuals.
Miss Wanda Vinson of the Kansas State High School Assn, met with members of the speech and drama department and the University extension service Wednesday to plan for the State Speech and Drama Festival which will be held March 8 and 9 at KU.
KU will be host to the winners of high school speech and drama activities from the eastern part of Kansas. The schools will present 1-act plays, extemporaneous speeches, manuscript readings, informative speeches, original orations, dramatic and humorous readings.
The festival lasts for two days. At the end of each half-day period, judges will give criticism of the work they have seen.
"This way, the festival proves to be a learning thing," Dr. Brooking said, "because students profit by criticism."
All 1-act plays given at the festival will be presented in the theater of the Music and Dramatic Arts Building.
Enrollment at KU in the fall of 1883 numbered 582.
