ALLIE CARROL IS HERO
Time Winning a $50 Prize
And He Has a Mirth-Provoking
The cast for Alton Gumbiner's senior play, "Copping the Grapes" is out at last. The woman's lead, Alice Dearing, a charming college woman, will be played by Beulah Davis and the male lead, Allie Carroll, amenable. likeable good-fellow in general and punk student in particular by Sir Thomas Caulley. "We have had a great deal of trouble in selecting the cast," said Burnett, manager of the play, this morning, "but now that it has been chosen we will rush rehearsals and I believe that with the talent we have the senior play of year will be the best thing but that the fact that the play was written by a University student will do much toward insuring its success, I believe."
The following is the east of chance

The play will be given at the Bow ersck the night of April 12.

U. team in the Nebraska game. The result is history. He wanted to go home for the Christmas vacation, but the ticket was denimmed cash for the ticket and his Dad had写 him: "nevermore."
So Allie tried to write a play. There was a chance to win fifty silver simoleons if his play was a good one, for there was a prize contest on and Allie tossed his Stetson hat in all in one night and he had one gripping, ripping time of it. He met a burglar, a cop, his sweetheart, and his unsophisticated aunt, and several of his fr brothers took turns trying to grab the wonderful night, and Allie was as busy as a one-armed paper hanger with the hives, but the night sped on and when morning came Allie had written his play, "I seen stuff" and that it won the prize. So Allie went home Christmas after all.
SINGER DELIGHTS MANY
Edith Bideau, Graduate of University, Appears in Concert
Miss Edith Bideau who appeared in concert last night at the Boversock theater delighted her audience and won great applause. Miss Bideau was graduated from the University four years ago and has studied in New York, this time. This is Miss Bideau's first appearance in concert in Lawrence since her return.
Miss Pearl! Empley, instructor in piano in the School of Fine Arts accompanied Miss Bideau. The program was made up of works of the great masters, an aria by Mozart and an aria by Rossini, several works of the classic school, and a few modern works.
Miss Bideau's voice is a rich soprano of great quality, admirably adapted to concert work. Her tones are bright and engaging with delightful freedom and ease.
A smoker is to be given this evening at the University Club House at 9:30 p. m. following the concert to be given in the Robinson Gymnasium by the Zoellner String Quartet. The guests of honor will be Joseph Zoellner and his two sons. All members of the university Club are invited.
After repeated applause, Miss Bidcau sat down at the piano, played her own accompaniment and sang Annie Laurie. The hush over the audience as she finished furnished the highest applause.
Smoker for Zoellners
No, the glass in the north door on the west side of Fraser Hall was not broken by the wind slamming the door shut. The wind did blow the door shut against a fair co-e-d's arm and one of the osters were hit by it. The door back missed the panel and pushed it arm through the glass, cutting it in several places.
Zoellner Pays Tribute to Profes sors Skilton and Nevin of the University
Cities, Entertainer Declares
Many Artists Found in Small
BOSTON NOT MUSIC CENTER
"Americans are too prone to look upon New York or perhaps Boston as the musical center of the nation, and as the source of all worth-while musical productions," said Mr. Joseph Zeolner, Jr., this morning. "This tis a grave mistake. There is a weakness of talent all over the country. You often find students in a remarkable depth in the most obscure places. For instance, you have men in this small city (and he apologizes for referring to Lawrence as an obscure place) who are truly artists. I refer to Prof. C. S. Skilton and Arthur Nevin of your department of fine arts. The skilton's Indian dances have been received at our various stools, with immense enthusiasm. We have presented them in Boston, the proverbial intellectual hub of the universe and to the Chilleoco Indians in Oakahoma, and both audiences, so widely different in temperament, seemed equally to appreciate that she was the proof of their own excellence." The Bostonians approved of them because of their technical quality and the Indians enjoyed them because they were so realistic and true to their native folk lore."
their native 1904s. Mr. Zeebell was equally complimentary to Prof. Arthur Nevin. OfProfessor Nevin's quartet he said: "Professor Nevin's Quartet is undoubtedly a big production with a wealth of inspiration behind it. I consider它 a triumph in the field of classical music."

The Brussels String Quartet will give a concert in the-auditorium of the basilic symposium tonight and from here they will go to Los Angeles, California. This is their first coast to coast tour although they have been making public appearances for the last ten years.
The Columbia people are putting out two records in May that have been contributed to them by The Zoellner family. They are "Genius Loci" by Thern and "Humoresque on two American Folk Tunes" by Kramer, with contributions from Michael Zoellner, Jr. on "The Development of the Sring Quartet in America" will appear in the May issue of Everybody's magazine.
Zoellners Appear Tonight
Perhaps the most interesting feature of the program of the Zoellner Quartet who appear tonight in Robinson gymnasium will be the Indian Dances by Dean Skilton and the Quartet by Peter Koerner Nevin. The Quartet played here last year also and was a great success. The program will begin sharply at 8:15 p.m. tonight and will be as follows:

The lectures are open to men and women of the University. Hugo Wedell, secretary of the Y. M. C. A., promises that the meeting will be in out time for the Zoeller-String Quartet concert in Robinson gym.

A news article states that Mrs. Brown wants more chaperons at fraternity parties so that the chaperons may have a better time. If they could only get enough chaperons so that they would have a little party of their own the students could then enjoy themselves.
A bequest of 250 books was made to the University of Washington by Miss Adela M. Fielde, missionary, lecturer and author. The books are mostly on historical, sociological and scientific subjects, and who passed away February 29, was for eight years a resident of Seattle and a friend of the University.

New Improvement in Museum
One of the many improvements which are being made in Dyce Museum, is the new wall-board which has been put along the west corridor of the museum. It will form part of the department of paleontology. This space has been framed in and divided into several panels on which will be hung photographs showing the entire process of excavation during the fossil specimen for display.
Mr. Martin says he intends to make the display as interesting as possible, not only for sight-seers but for the increasing number of students of biology and geology who come to his department for information.

Captain Jones Says K. N. G. Will Not Be Summoned To Fight

It is entirely optional with the guards whether they shall go to the scene of action or not and before they are allowed to go it will be necessary for them to pass a couple of physical examinations.

PAINTINGS GO TO HOSPITAL
Prof. Griffith Supplies Copies of Works of Art to Patients
Imagine if you can that you have been sick for weeks, lying in the University hospital with nothing to do but count the hours.
Then try to realize a pleasure it would be to have an exact copy of a work of one of the master-painters at the side of your bed and especially prepared pamphlets for each picture as a guide telling the history of the production and the life-story of the painters.
The patients at the University Hospital have been enjoying the painting exchange that is being afforded them by the department of painting on the Hill. Every week Prof. W. A. Griffith sees that a painting well placed in the rooms of the patients who care to be included in the circuit.
The idea was originated lately on the suggestion of Mrs. Griffith, who takes a great interest in the care of students at the University Hospital.
Two thousand life members have been secured for the student union at the university.

FRESHMAN SOCIETY TO
HAVE A BASEBALL TEAM
The Sphinx membership includes several men who were considered artists in handling the horsehide during their high school days and the formation of a speedy nine is looming up strong.
The organization of a baseball team and the giving of a farewell party at Woodland Park or the country club were two of the things planned last night at the regular weekly meeting of the Sphinx society. The baseball team will match games with the three other class societies and expects to carry off a majority of the contests.
Last year the society voted in two men from Acacia, two from Phi Kappa and one from Delta Tau Delta, Kanza Club and Sigma Alpha Epsilon. The last three memberships are to be filled because the men from these organizations left school, Initiation and a career. The meeting will be held next Wednesday night at the Delta Tau chapter house. The society's farewell party will probably be given during the early part of May.
