In one class, visitors outnumber students
One KU course has an enrollment of 30 but up to 100 are expected for many of its meetings.
That's a seminar in modern theatre offered to graduate students only, but with such a "blue chip" faculty that many undergraduates will be welcomed auditors.
The guest lecturers will be Miss Rosamond Guilder of New York City, for 50 years a writer and critic, and now president of the International Theatre Institute; Norris Houghton of New York City, director of many Broadway productions and co-manager and director of the Phoenix Theatre; Harold E. Clurman of New York City, director of many Broadway productions and movies through 35 years and drama critic of The Nation magazine; and Hubert Heffner, professor at Indiana University and former president of the American Education Theatre Association.
ELLIOTT NORTON, veteran Boston newspaperman engaged in dramatic criticism since 1934; Walter R. Volbach, now visiting professor at the University of Massachusetts and former assistant to the late Max Reinhardt in Berlin and stage director at several German Austrian houses; and the Rev. M. C. "Sam" Allen, pastor of the First Baptist Church in Lawrence, who has made a serious study of drama's relation to religion.
Regular teachers of the seminar are Walter J. Meserve, professor of English, and William Kuhlike, assistant professor of drama and director of the Experimental Theatre.
"This course is 'spring semester only' offering made possible only because one of the professors took leave without pay." Dr. Meserve explained.
Most guest lecturers will be on campus for one week for three lectures. While they may choose to visit other drama classes, advise students, and even make some public addresses, their first obligation is to the seminar, Prof. Meserve explained.
GRADUATE STUDENTS enrolled for credit will earn it. A reading list of more than 30 books has been assigned.
"We expect several full houses of visiting undergraduate students and faculty for some of the lectures." Prof. Meserve said. He regretted not being able to bill the course as "public lectures" but indicated there might be room for serious laymen.
Tri-Delts to give $400 scholarship
Applications for two Delta Delta Delta scholarship awards must be filed with the Dean of Women's office by March 4. Winners will be announced later this spring.
One award of $400 will be made by the local KU chapter and a $1,000 award is to be given by the national organization. Both scholarships are based on leadership ability, scholarship qualifications, and need of the applicant.
Winner of the local scholarship will be eligible for the national scholarship competition. If the local recipient wins the national award, his alternate will receive the local award.
Linda Bahr, Annandale, Va., junior and Delta Delta Delta project chairman, said all KU women students are eligible for the scholarship competition.
