Faculty Recitals To Begin Oct.21
Opening the concert season Oct. 21, will be the first faculty recital starring Reinhold Schmidt, professor of voice. It will be held in Recital Hall of the Music and Dramatic Arts building.
Prof. Schmidt said he is planning to slant his recital towards students, because the music is the kind which students ordinarily would not hear in a University concert.
Prof. Schmidt has chosen all contemporary music. Selections are "Four Mediaeval Latin Lyrics," by Edmund Rubbra; "Melodies Passageres," by Samuel Barber; "Dover Beach," accompanied by the faculty string quartet; and a group of selected songs by Davis Diamond and Paul Hindmith.
Qualities Wanted Organization Told
A 'B' average or better, in interest in campus activities, and knowing what you want are the qualities employers are looking for in graduating seniors, representatives from three companies told members of Alpha Kappa Psi, professional business fraternity, Tuesday.
The representatives explaining what an employer expects from an interviewee were Edward Carr, Hallmark Card Co.; L. L. Lee, IBM of Kansas City and surrounding districts; William Woodruff, Kansas City Fire and Marine Insurance and B. B. Jones and Sons Insurance Co.
Be yourself during the interviews, the students were told. Tell as much about yourself as you can. Don't be discouraged if you don't get offers from every company; you may not fit into the particular pattern they are looking for.
Library Replaces Old Windows
Workmen are replacing windows in the south end of the original Watson library building.

Newspaper clippings written about and by Dr. Vilhelm Groenbech, a Danish historian of religion, were added this summer to Watson library's collection of Danish books.
The clippings were collected over a period of years by Paul Holst, a student of Prof. Groenbech. It is the only collection of its kind in the world.
Library Gets Danish Works
The University research fund paid for photostatic copies of newspaper clippings and periodicals found in Copenhagen's royal library. "Moriuri?" his first book of poems, was also bought. Dr. Groenbech thought no copies of this existed today.
However a librarian at the university library in Copenhagen, found 30 copies at the printing plant of the successor to the original printer. He distributed these copies to the students of Dr. Groenbech and kept two of them for himself. One of these, with the pages still uncut, he sold to KU.
