Last Camp Art Exhibit Is Best in Several Areas
By Mike Shearer
The last exhibit of the camp year proved to be the best in most areas.
The biggest surprise in the exhibit was the fantastic crafts displayed. The pottery was outstanding, as it has been all summer. A large two-necked vase was one of the more interesting products displayed. It was done by Margaret Schadt.
The weaving displayed was all superior. A pillow fabric by Betsy Wilkinson and matching bags by Lynn Gallagher were particularly fascinating. Sculpture by Todd Williams and Janice Howell was representative of the very imaginative and creative sculpture which was exhibited.
THE WATER COLORS of the last exhibit were a tremendous improvement over earlier displays. Peggy Perkins' interpretation of Potter Lake was one of the more beautiful articles in the exhibit. Miss Perkins uses a clean and even stroke which produces a very beautiful and graceful effect.
A water color by Barbara Lee Moorehouse was very dramatic. Her seated figure was done in tones of gray and showed a very artistic technique. Jill Wilise had another water color up which demonstrates a very bold and clean style.
Janet Sundbury painted owls in a twisted tree skeleton. The browns were used very professionally and effectively. The water color display as a whole was very good.
MOST OF THE OIL paintings displayed over the past few weeks were not as good as this week's selection. The painters have taken on a more progressive style. Kris Hermanson and Mike Elzea both had oil portraits displayed which showed unusual talent. Judy Hershman, who was selected second best girl art camper, had two very good abstracts displayed. The larger of the two was the more dramatic.
The oil painting by Rogene Pfeutze, who was selected best girl camper, was one of the best articles exhibited this summer. With well-defined colors, Rogene captured an expression in the portrait which gave the painting a light mood and many enhanced exhibit viewers.
In the cartoon section, Mike Elzea had a delightful little cartoon in his usual beautiful style. Neil Shapiro had a series of cartoons exhibited which well represent his distinctive style. Blair Martin, whose style is not as developed as Shaprio's and Elzea's, has had some very imaginative ideas which proved to be very comical.
THE FASHION DESIGNS have been continuously delightful and the number of persons who have had excellent fashions exhibited is very high. Some of the more dramatic and outstanding fashions were done by Marta Waggener, Dave Norton, Margo Hamlin, and Cathy Lennon. The fashions which were done in color added an attractive variety to the fashion section. Sandy Downum seemed to be one of the more successful in fashion colors.
After an earlier critique, in which the sketched portraits were called lacking in form and perspective, an art camper advised that that was the desired effect and the sketches were not meant to be finished drawings.
THE FIGURE SKETCHES were once again one of the show's strong points. The figure sketching instructors have evidently been successful in getting the figure sketcher to be free and relaxed as they sketch. Two figure sketches by Betsy Warland were among the best displayed.
In the area of design, Lucia Willman had one of the more interesting designs in the show. Her walrus was done in a very carefully selected purple arrangement.
Rogene Pfeutze had two nature sketches of plants exhibited which showed very dramatic lighting and a free wash technique. A drawing by Neil Shapiro was also displayed which drew many comments from exhibit viewers. He used a very fine pen point and black ink to produce a very textured and interesting drawing of a man.
KANSAS CITY Mo. - I1 pre-season ticket sales continue at the current brisk pace at all Big Eight Conference schools, many of the nearly 30 single-game and single-season attendance records set last year will be broken before the season starts.
Big 8 Attendance Records Loom
Last year, behind a better than 11 per cent increase in average total attendance, new marks were set at all eight institutions, and the conference's all-time total attendance and per-game standards were upped to 1,421,245 and 36,174. It was the fourth time in the past five years the conference had set an all-time per-game record.
NEBRASKA FIGURES on the sale of 40,000 season tickets to the general public, faculty, and students, with more than 27,000 going to the public, a new high for the Cornhuskers.
Again this year, the new season and per-game records are sure to be established at Nebraska, where Memorial Stadium has been expanded to hold 52,450, and at Missouri, to nearly 55,000. Both institutions indicate sales well ahead of last year's pace.
Missouri looks for a total sale of about 27,000 and Oklahoma guesses its final public-sale mark could hit 25,000, marking the ninth straight year the Sooners have sold that many season tickets to the public. Kansas set a new season-ticket sales mark last year, but if the current trend continues, that record will be broken with over 16,000 public tickets moved.
SELLOUT PREDICTIONS are beginning to pop up now; however, only three games thus far have been put in that class—the Kansas-Nebraska and Wisconsin-Nebraska games at Lincoln and the Oklahoma-Texas clash in Dallas.
With deadlines for renewal of season tickets differing at each institution, and no deadline for new purchases, a final accounting of the number sold cannot be made for at least another month.
C. Kim Tidd, business manager at Iowa State, says, "At the current rate of ticket applications, we are assured of either full houses or near full houses for each of our home games."
Iowa State entertains University of the Pacific, Missouri, Oklahoma State, and Kansas State at Ames.
In addition to these games, prospective sellouts appear to be Oklahoma at Nebraska. Navy at Oklahoma, Kansas at Oklahoma, Oklahoma State at Oklahoma, Missouri at Kansas, Nebraska at Missouri, and Oklahoma at Missouri. None of these games has been announced as a sellout vet.
Here is the way sales look around the Conference:
IOWA STATE—Season ticket requests are keeping pace with last year's sale, when requests were up 20 per cent in all categories, even though this is a rebuilding year for the Cyclones. Officials predict "either full houses or near full houses" for each of the four home games.
KANSAS STATE—Sales running about even with last year, when there was a marked increase over the previous season. "I think the enthusiasm generated by last year's team (3-4 in the Big Eight) will increase our attendance this season, and subsequently increase the demand for tickets to Kansas State games," says H. B. Lee, director of athletics.
OKLAHOMA STATE—Revival of football fortunes under Phil Cutchin makes prospects for increase in season ticket sales quite good, with an expected increase over last year's total. The Cowboys will not have advantage of hosting rival Oklahoma this year, but do have Missouri and Nebraska at home, both of whom are good draws in Stillwater.
COLORADO—Moving toward a target of 10,000 public season tickets, which would be just under all-time high of 11,000 set in 1961 when the Buffs won the Conference title. Expect single-game sales to increase with prospects for renewed football fortunes.
KANSAS- Well on way to surpassing the record of 15,610 public season tickets sold last year, not including the more than 10,000 that have been set aside for the students. If season ticket sales hold up at the about 10 per cent increase pace, single-game requests could put total
at new season and game-average records.
MISSOURI-Reporting that public season ticket sales are up almost 10 per cent over last year and that a total of over 27,000 season books will be sold, there is little doubt that the Tigers will break all crowd records in newly expanded stadium. Nebraska and Oklahoma will probably attract capacity crowds.
NEBRASKA — Nebraska officials are certain the stadium is sold out for the Kansas and Wisconsin games, with more than 40,000 season tickets sold to the general public, faculty, and students—more than 27,000 went to the general public, a new record for the Cornhuskers. Almost 6,000 seats are being added to the stadium this year, insuring new all-time and per-game attendance records for the third year in a row.
OKLAHOMA—A public season ticket sale of nearly 25,000 is predicted for this year, which is almost equal to the total of last year—Oklahoma's season ticket requests have not been below 25,000 since 1956. $^{\textcircled{v}}$or the 17th straight year, Oklahoma's quota of the Oklahoma-Texas tickets at the Cotton Bowl were sold out by May 4, with another full house for this one virtually assured. Navy and Kansas games loom as sellout possibilities.
Flicks in Fraser Moved to Dyche
The destruction of Fraser Hall, a much discussed procedure, is now creating still another problem. No longer can the three-years-running Friday Flicks be shown in its auditorium, which seated approximately 600 people.
The new location (when the fall session begins) will be the 200-seat auditorium in Dyche. Because of the decreased seating capacity, the movies (which are sent to educational institutions like KU after they are a certain age) are to be shown not only twice on Friday night, as before, but twice on Saturday also.
The "Friday Flicks" are now becoming "Frequent Flicks!"
