Ticket sales to open soon
Student basketball season tickets will be on sale Nov. 16 through Nov. 18 in the main lobby of Allen Field House.
KU students must have a season ticket to attend the basketball games this year.
This will be the first year students will be required to have tickets in advance of the game. Last year student ID's admitted students.
Seven thousand student season tickets will be sold at $4 each on a "first come" basis.
For students who do not purchase a season ticket, there will be 500 tickets available for each game; price of individual tickets will be $1.
The remaining 10,000 tickets will be on sale to the general public.
Africans featured in authentic play
The costumes for this rehearsal are a little different. The all-male cast hams it up much as they do in everyday life, but here they're clad in the brilliant, toga-like robes of Ghana.
"The Literary Society" by Henry Ofori of Ghana is "one of the best African comedies I've seen," says director Kay McNeive, Topeka graduate student.
CHOOSING THIS production as one of her degree projects, she hunted and cast African students in the roles. The play will be presented at 7:30 p.m., Nov.15, in Experimental Theatre. Admission is free.
The plot is of a pseudo-literary group in a small town in Ghana who show how ridiculous and absurd they are.
Miss McNeive is specializing in African drama for her master's degree in drama. Her thesis will be based on the Nigerian play-wright Wole Soyinka.

"M" IS FOR THE MANY THINGS YOU'LL TEACH HER
Nobody will dispute-surely not I-that raising children is a task which requires full time and awesome skills. Nonetheless, a recent nationwide survey has revealed a startling fact: mothers who go back to work after their children are safely through the early years are notably happier, better adjusted, and more fulfilled than mothers who simply remain housewives. Moreover—and mark this well—the children of such working mothers are themselves happier, better adjusted, and more fulfilled!
All very well, you say, but what's it got to do with you? Isn't it obvious? If you are underachieving at college, get your mother a job.
What kind of job? Well sir, your mother is probably between 35 and 50 years of age, so certain occupations must immediately be ruled out. Logging, for example. Or whaling. Or carhopping.
But don't despair. There are other kinds of jobs—not many, to be sure, but some. However, you must not stick Mom in just any old job. You must remember that after the excitement of raising you, she would be bored to tears as a file clerk, for instance, or as a dolman. (A dolman, as we all know, is someone who brings handfuls of water to track layers. With the recent invention of the pail, dolmen are gradually falling into technological unemployment.)
But I digress. I was saying, find Mom a job worthy of her talents, something challenging that uses her vast wisdom and experience but, at the same time, is not too hard on her obsoledescing tissues. That's what Walter Sigafoos did, and the results were brilliantly successful.
Walter, a sophomore at the Upper Maryland College of Wickerwork and Belles Lettres, majoring in raffia, approached the problem scientifically. First he asked himself what his mother did best. Well sir, what she did best was to keep hollering. "Dress warm, Walter!"
At first glance this seemed a skill not widely in demand, but Walter was not discouraged. He sent out hundreds of inquiries and today, I am pleased to report, his mother is happily employed as wardrobe mistress for the Montreal Canadiens.
Another fortunate venture was that of Frank C. Gransmire, a junior at the Oregon State Conservatory of Music and Optometry, majoring in sties. Frank, like Walter, did a survey in depth of his mother's talents. Chief among them, he found, was her ability to make a roast of beef feed the whole family for three days. So, naturally, Frank got her a job at the Museum of Natural History.
What has one to do with the other, you ask? Isn't it obvious? Anyone who can stretch ribs like that belongs in paleontology.
I cannot conclude this column without saying a few words about Personna Super Stainless Steel Blades. The reason I cannot is that this column is sponsored by the makers of Personna Super Stainless Steel Blades, and they are inclined to get peekish if I omit to mention their product.
Not, mind you, that it is a chore for me to plug Personna. Or, for the matter of that, to shave with Personna. No sir: no chore. Personna takes the pain out of shaving, scraps the scrape, negates the nick, repudiates the rasp, peels the pull, boycotts the burn, blackballs the bite, ousts the ouch. Furthermore, Personna endures and abides, gives you luxury shave after luxury shave, day after day after day. And further furthermore, Personna is available both in double-edge style and Injector style. And as if all this were not bounty enough, Personna is now offering you a chance to grab a fistful of $100 bills! Stop at your Personna dealer and get an entry blank for the new Personna Super Stainless Steel Sweepstakes. But hurry! Time is limited.
