Off the shelf
The Final Hour—One of those books whose bulk could make you list to the side on which you read it. This is the story of a great family, one so powerful it can change the destiny of nations. An old theme, as a matter of fact, is the tale of Caldwell. ($.75)
American Beauty — First published in 1931, this is one of those epic jobs by Edna Ferber that was so popular in the mid-1940s. She set the setting in Connecticut, and the heroine is the spinner remnant of a once-powerful and proud old family. Enter Polish immigrant stock and enters, thus, a classic style conflict.

The Corpse That Walked — A mystery tale by Roy Winsor, in which a professor tried to figure out how the body of one Iwin Siegelmann got from the man's smashed automobile to a duck pond. Mild and light going. (Gold Medal, 95 cents)
Faculty art works blend in exhibit

Painting and Sculpture Faculty, now showing in the Kansas Union Gallery, is an extremely well presented show. It is hard to believe that only a few students have seen The show has a clean appearance because the sculptural pieces are exhibited in our

Soviets repress artists
By KENN LOUDEN

Artistic freedom still doesn't exist in the Soviet Union. Anti-Soviet opinions aren't heard in many countries, but they were before the beginning of detente, but the Russians remind us periodically that the government has a totalitarian government and limits freedom of expression.

Athletics need fee bike
Who is going to pay for intercollegiate athletics at the University of Kansas? This is the perennial question that the athletic director, the KU president, and some staff asked themselves and sometimes fought over.
In recent years, this question has been compounded because the athletic corporation was $272,000 in debt as of fall 1973, and inflation was nibbling away daily at all incoming revenue. The Kansas Legislature declined this year to subsidize intercollegiate athletics at state-supported institutions of higher education and alumni weren't contributing as heavily because the team wasn't fielding national championship football for the college athletes were cancelling their orders because the Jayhawks were losing, and the Student Senate didn't maintain a subsidy to the athletic corporation that would keep pace with inflation. It even cut the subsidy back.
Now the question of funding intercollegiate athletics is further compounded because a women's intercollegiate program must be funded as required by Title IX legislation.
Where is all the money going to come from? Francis Heller, professor of law, and a long-time lobbyist for the University has said that contributions to all facets of the University from alumni increase when KU has good football and basketball seasons. And Chancellor Archie Dykes recently said that athletics set the tone for "everything from budget to curriculum."
Where is all the money going to come from?
But the people who benefit from athletics the most also should pay for part of the program. When alumni contribute more to the University through the Endowment Association, they are providing for more and better teaching programs, facilities and scholarships. It is the student who is directly benefiting from intercollegiate athletics.
A recommendation that a greater amount of the student activity fee go to the athletic corporation, which was presented to StudEu students in high school Gregory, chairman of the Student Senate Finance and Auditing Committee, is a step in the right direction of having those who benefit carry the burden.
Maintaining financing from alumni and ticketholders, therefore, means maintaining successful athletic teams.
And it is time to face the fact that the burden of supporting a good athletic program at the University should be supported in part by the students and by all the students.
The increased subsidy would mean a substantial decrease in the price of student tickets and stop double taxing the students who attend athletic events.
If the University is going to have an athletic program, it will have to have a good one, and those who benefit will have to nav for it.

authorities used bulldozers and dump trucks to break it up. Eight artists were arrested; three times were seized and burned.
Artistic repression in the Soviet Union isn't new. Major works by Russian writers, including *Boris Nikov*, *Nikabov*, *Mikail Bulgakov* and *Anatole Kunetzov*, as well as Aleksandr Solzhitsynen, have never reached the Soviet public because the government found the work "useless." The Russian press has died in obscurity—only to be rediscovered by Westerners.
Music in the Soviet Union also must meet orthodox standards. To comply with these standards Shostakovich were forced to conform and produce music that the masses could whistle or sing. The dancers, ballet dancers, including Rudolf Nureyef, defected from the Soviet Union because they couldn't experiment with different instruments and abstract choreography.
Most recently, Eugene Fodor, a young American violinist, had to share the second place prize in the Tchaikovsky Violin Competition, where violinists, although many said he was their superior.
A Westerner had never won the competition, and Soviet officials had no intention of engaging on one to an American virtuoso.
Despite concessions and an apparent willingness to work with the United States, the Soviet Union is far from becoming a nation that believes in freedom of expression.
Americans must pay attention to what is happening within the Soviet union to understand what the nation is really like. A nation that condemns and suppresses artistic expression can't be trusted as a partner in detente.

The three artists' works—as diversified as they are—seem to work together unusually well. This is definitely a show worth seeing. People have to go to the artist talent. Some of the best artwork in the country is on the KU campus.
Economist predicts world of despair
By STEVEN LEWIS
ObitHolding Writer
AN HUMAN PROSPECT, By Robert L. Helherron, Norton & Co. 150 pages. 15.95.
KANSAN
The latest addition to a growing list of renowned economists to jump from the ship of hope into the sea of
despair is Robert Hiltner, professor of economics at the New School for Social Research in New York City.
The consequences of those trends probably will include "wars of redistribution" and the end of industrial growth.
In his latest book, "An Inquiry into the Human Prospect," *Helbroner* says the outlook for the human race is "painful, difficult, perhaps desperate."
The facts behind Helbronner's pessimism include a widening economic gap between industrial nations, the population explosion in underdeveloped nations, intense competition for dwindling world resources and the potential for nuclear war.
--in the 18th century and Net-them told the hilarious story of how the Bard became a national institution in England.
Hellbroner speculates that industrial expansion in the United States will come to an end within the coming decade and that socio-political conditions in democratic societies won't be able to cope with the rapidly changing economies. The coming age will mean less freedom and fewer goods for Americans.
Helibroner says nuclear blackmail seems to be an inevitable consequence.
The recent limited oil shortage is one sign that the Armor way of life is in its hands, according to Heilbroner.
"An Inquiry into the Human Prospect" is a frightening book, especially because Helbroner has long been a highly respected analyst of economic issues and will pursue purposefully joins a growing number of experts who have concluded that there is no doubt that a radically different future beckons.
Hellbroner doubts that industrial nations will passively sit and watch their industrial growth rates collapse as a result of dwindling resources. The result, he believes, is industrial giants will intensify their fight will fight over the resources of the underdeveloped world.
By MARGARET McMANN Drama Borderz
David Nettheim is billed as a dramatic actor. Last night in his performance he came to Swarthout Recital Hall he proved that he is much more—he is a witty and commentator on Shakespeare.
Hucksters, stars both for a buck
He asked the question "Who was Shakespeare?" and then attempted to answer the question of contemporaries and critics.
Netheme on stage, and said that all the facts known about Shakespeare could be related in one minute and 18 seconds. After giving this quick introduction about the bard, he, along with his friends, wrote a series of anecdotes that delighted a receptive audience.
Then he went on to show how Shakespeare has weathered the ages. Among the fumiest writers of all time, his interpretation of "Othello." Othello had the mannerisms and voice of a black slave who made such brilliant statements that McKill you" and "Dad's too bad."
Nettthem showed his acting ability as he spoke as these people. He recreated the sentiments of Virginia Woolf, Robert Green, George Bernard Shaw, Ben Jonson, Thomas Fuller and John Manning, who High monologues were a series of laughs interspersed with warm moments.
He told of a playbill of "MacBeth" in the 18th century that advertised "all songs and dances essential to the play include dance between the acts." A production of "A Midsummer Night's Dream" included 40 monkeys, Chinese dancers and doves that turned into fairies. It which means
"Bardolay," which means the extreme love of Shakespeare, became rampant
"No, no," said the tourist, "he was born in a manger."
David Garrick, a prominent actor in the 18th century, was the instigator of Bardolay. A house was named to be Shakespeare's birthplace. In it was a bed. For years guides had told their audience that he was born in it. Netheltin told us about a Chinese tourist who said it wasn't true. The guide became nervous and assured the man that it was.
Netheme through his wit and talent answered the question "Who was Shakespeare?" more successfully than a dozen professors and a library of biographies ever could.
