Actors tell of journey to Europe
Theatre techniques and actor training programs in Kansas and eastern European countries are basically the same, according to a KU professor.
KU, THE ONLY American university in this program, has sent students and a professor abroad for the past three years. In exchange, students from European countries have come to KU for a similar program.
"There are no real differences in the kind of training," William Kuhlke, assistant professor of speech and drama, said, "only in the degree. Our students compare quite favorably to the Europeans on the same level of training."
Kuhike and six KU students recently returned from an eight-week tour of Poland, Czechoslovakia, Yugoslavia and Rumania. They were taking part in the American Theatre Symposium sponsored by the State Department's Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs.
The demonstration team visited professional theatre academies in major cities in the four countries. The students attended classes to see the kinds of training programs Europeans have and the training techniques they employ. Then the two groups of students met in formal and informal discussion groups to compare the two types of theatre.
For each tour the KU demonstration team puts on a production. This year the students did "An American Medley," a musical account of the past 100 years.
THE COLLECTION of songs, dances and play scenes was compiled by Kuhike and by Allen Crafton, professor emeritus. It also was presented on KU's Centennial lecture and concert course throughout Kansas last winter
Each of the six Jayhawkers performed various roles in the two-act presentation. Slides projected on a screen were used for background, and a narrative written in the native language was read by a European student.
"The training programs in Europe are more complete," Kuhle said, "consisting of four or five years of professional training. Our students are busy studying biology and other subjects while they get their theatre training."
"ONE OF THE greatest benefits from a program such as this," Professor Kuhkke said, "was the close association with people—we learned not just from books and graphs. This program also promotes international understanding. When we couldn't find a language to talk to each other with, we used sign language."
"Our physical facilities, however, are far better than those in Europe," Kuhlke said. "The scenery, lights and costumes in America are much better."
The comedy scenes of the American Medley were livened up when the KU students learned key punch lines in the foreign language.
The sir students were selected by tryouts and interviews last September and practiced until they left. During the spring semester they could only enroll in two theatre courses for six hours' credit because they left on tour in April.
Cast members were: Paul W. Hough, Jr., junior, Topeka; Kip Niven, junior, Prairie Village; Richard Kelton, senior, Miami, Okla.; Brenda Currin, junior, Rockville, Md.; Ann Runge Glaze, graduate, Higginsville, Mo., and Mary Linda Rapelye, senior, Kansas City, Mo.

Peace officers to convene on campus for training
School days will begin Monday for about 175 law enforcement and correctional officers on the KU campus.
Kansas Atty. Gen. Robert Londerholm will give the keynote address for the six-day 20th Annual Kansas Peace Officers Training School, offered by the Governmental Research Center and University Extension, KU, and the Kansas Peace Officers Association.
The program has three sections: Applied Police Science I, Applied Police Science II, and the Correctional Officers Seminar.
Applied Police Science I will be offered to law enforcement officers with less than four years' experience and no equivalent training. It is broad in scope and covers subjects important to new officers, including accident investigation, arrest procedures, and preservation of the crime scene.
Applied Police Science II is an intermediate course for officers with several years' experience or previous training. It includes forgery investigation, supervision
methods, and interrogation of suspects.
The Correctional Officers Seminar for prison and jail personnel will cover such subjects as transportation of prisoners, supervision problems, and managing disturbed persons.
