"A Century of KU Athletics" will be the theme of the 41st annual Relays Parade to be held April 23 in downtown Lawrence, Ted Haggart, Salina junior, said.
Invitations to enter the parade have been sent to all living groups. "We're looking forward to
having as many enter as possible." Hagart said.
THREE COMBINED LIVING groups have submitted float entries: Delta Delta Delta and Joseph R. Pearson Residence Hall; Sigma Phi Epsilon and Chi Omega; and Lambda Chi Alpha

Rosenblum describes British Romantic art
All living groups can enter separately or with a living group of the opposite sex. April 11, the Monday after Easter, is the deadline for entries.
Dr. Robert Rosenblum last night spoke to nearly 300 people at the 7th Humanities Series lecture in what he called "pitch blackness fitting the topic." The professor of art history at Princeton University discussed "Documents, Hallucinations, and British Romantic Painting" while slides were shown to illustrate his observation.
ACCORDING TO Rosenblum,
"The mood and subject matter of British art before romantic influence can be characterized by haughty portraits; topographical, picture-post card records of cities; and photographic respect for natural phenomena such as Hailey's Comet."
Rosenblum limited his discussion to romanticism by first considering only England and second, considering England only from 1750 to 1800.
He said, "The romantic artist was fascinated by irrational experiences. The breakdown in stiffness beginning around 1760 is the
introduction of romantic preoccupation in the work of English painters."
The evidences of romanticism cited by Rosenblum were animals being given human qualities and exotic backgrounds becoming more common with the British fascination with the noble savage, the American Indian.
AS THE TURN OF THE 19th century approached. Dr. Rosenblum said the painters seemed to approach their canvases with their eyes closed. Ghostly moods were the product of inspiration instead of observation. Such things as perspective and human scale were falling away.
Dr. Rosenblum said the period between 1750 and 1800 has had a tremendous influence on 20th century art.
Seven different high school bands and the KU Marching Band will participate. In addition, the Miss Lawrence contestants, sponsored by the Jaycees, will ride in the parade.
