Football Player Will Vocalize
Curtis McClinton, KU's all-conference halfback, will exercise a second talent as the featured base baritone at the Kappa Alpha Psi spring recital Sunday at 3 p.m. in the Forum Room of the Kansas Union.
McClinton said since coming to college, he has experienced a conflict between his athletic and musical pursuits.
McClinton started his musical career as a pianist.
"I WASN'T ABLE TO SING in the University Choir because football practice was always at the same time," he said.
"I played the piano until I was old enough to play football." he said. "When I was in high school, I played on the football team and sang in the mixed chorus."
McCLINTON APPEARED LAST year as a vocalist throughout the state. He sang at the World Day of Prayer in Wichita and at the Kennedy-Johnson victory dinner in Topeka. He also sang at various churches and at several KU departmental banquets.
"If the money was right, I'd rather sing than play football," he said. "At one time, I seriously thought about pursuing a musical career when I was offered a Wichita University music scholarship, but I accepted a KU football scholarship instead."
McClinton has signed to play professional football with the Dallas Cowboys, and he also hopes to make a few recordings.
THE KAPPA ALPHA PSI QUARTet, second place winner in the small ensemble division of the Greek Week Sing, also will be featured at the recital.
Members of the quartet include Dingwall C. Fleary, Lawrence senior; Thomas Cox, St. Louis sophomore; Daniel Gomez, Hutchinson graduate student, and Dale Taylor. Topeka senior.
Tickets are on sale for $1 at the Kappa Alpha Psi house and will also be sold at the door the afternoon of the recital.
Fambrough Due for Release
Don Fambrough, Kansas football assistant who has been hospitalized the past week with a stomach disorder, is due for release this week. How soon he can resume his field chores will be up to the medicos.

Wichita DU Chapter Draws Suspension
WICHITA — (UPI) — Suspension of the Delta Upsilon fraternity at Wichita University was announced today.

Billfold Burglar Strikes Theta Chi
KU police have reported that $107.50 was taken from men's bill-folds on the first and third floors of the Theta Chi fraternity house early yesterday morning.
Police said the theft occurred between 2 a.m. and 5 a.m.
A member of the fraternity told police that a car had been observed in the parking lot about 1:30 a.m.
The member said that the car, was seen about the same time several other nights.
KU Biochem Labs Set for Change
Major equipment used for research in biochemistry at KU will be replaced through two U.S. Public Health grants totaling $15,025.
Need for the new equipment results from the moving of the freshman medical class from Lawrence to the Medical Center at Kansas City, this fall.
The equipment had been bought under grants directed by Dr. Philip Newmark, associate professor of biochemistry, and Dr. Paul Kitos, assistant professor of biochemistry.
Final 'Splash Hits' Tonight
Fifteen diving and swimming acts are presented in "Splash Hits," the 1962 Quack Club water ballet. The last show will be held at 8 tonight in Robinson Gymnasium.
The acts are accompanied by recorded music from Broadway musicals. Tickets are 50 cents.

Features on the program include Pat Lane, Ronald Marsh and Nancy Jo Mullinix, Kansas City freshmen, as exhibition divers. Miss Lane is the National Junior Women's 3-meter AAU diving champion. Marsh is the Missouri Valley AAU winner and the Southwestern AAU champion diver.
Other novelty acts include a sister act, "Mountain Capers," starring Barbara and Andrea Gresser, junior and sophomore from Topeka, and "El Matador," features Clair McErloy, Wichita freshman, and Ruth Anne Walters, Lawrence senior, in a synchronized swimming act.
Twelfth Night' Stage Similar to Shakespeare's
For the current University Theatre production of William Shakespeare's romantic comedy "Twelfth Night," director Gordon Beck and set designer Glenn Bickle have constructed a facade to resemble Shakespeare's Globe playhouse.
By Tom Winston
It is fitting that they should do this, for the Elizabethan drama thrives best in the surroundings for which it was written. Scenes that seem to create directorial problems on a common proscenium stage become clear when placed in their original physical context and perspective.
THE DESIGN of the Shakespearean playhouse was organic to the structure of the Elizabethan drama. Shakespeare and his contemporaries, such as Ben Jonson and Christopher Marmlowe used elaborate costuming but they did not use scenery. Instead, their theater building itself served for its own scenery.
Shakespeare's Globe playhouse was either an octagonal structure or a round one (authorities do not agree) with a courtyard open to the sky in the middle. It could seat 3000 people in the three galleries
Opposite the main entrance was the attiring house, which served as the stage, as a storage building, and as a dressing room. The stage had seven and sometimes eight acting areas, on three levels.
On the first level was the downstage platform, where most of the action took place. In the middle of the platform was a trap door leading to the "hell" underneath—so called because it was used as the abode of evil spirits, as a dungeon, or as a madhouse.
FURTHER UPSTAGE were entrance doors on either side with an inner below stage called the "study" in the middle.
On the second level were window stages on either side, an inner above stage between them called the "chamber" where the bedroom scenes took place, and the tarras downstage of the chamber.
On the third level was the music gallery, usually occupied by musicians, but sometimes used by the actors for a tower, a dungeon, or a ship masthead. It also had storage rooms and dressing rooms.
Zalinski to Speak To Insurance Men
Dozens of insurance men from Kansas and western Missouri are expected to meet at KU today when the 1962 Insurance Lectureship will be held.
The principal speaker will be Dr. Edmund L. Zalinski, executive vice president of the Life Insurance Company of North America, Philadelphia. He will discuss "Health Insurance Progress and Problems" at 2 p.m. in Murphy Hall.
The lectureship is financed by the Insurance Education Development Fund created with the KU Endowment Association in 1957 by Kansas insurance executives, companies and associations.
Dr. Zalinski will be introduced by Frank T. Sullivan, Kansas state commissioner of insurance, who will talk on "Responsibility to the Insured."
Because the University Theatre proscenium is not high enough to allow a music gallery, Beck has placed the Duke Orsino's musicians in the audience-right window stage. Six students, directed by Howard Smither, assistant professor of music history, play the viole de gamba, the viola, the rebec and recorders.
In this world, the poet-play-wright was shackled neither by time nor place. "What he demanded of a stage was space for the unimpeded flow of scene after scene, for the instantaneous creation of any place in this world or the next."
IN ALL, BECK'S SET is 15 feet longer than the regular stage, 35 feet wide. and 24 feet high.
"Instead," Beckerman says, "the unfolding of the drama took place in a world half of man, and therefore unpredictable, half of God, and therefore moral, and was composed half of history, half of legend; half remote fantasy, half immediate reality."
Shakespeare and his contemporaries did not use lighting. In Renaissance Italy some theaters had fantastically complicated stage machinery, including lighting effects which could be used at will. But the Shakespearean plays took place in the afternoon or in the morning, in the daylight hours. The playwrights used their poetic powers to set the scene and to establish the mood and the time of day.
Admission prices for seats were determined much as they are today; the higher the cheaper. One penny would admit one into the courtyard beneath the elevated stage, but there were no seats there. A second penny would admit one to the third gallery, and a third penny would admit one to the best seats in the house, the first and second galleries.
Beckerman calls the stories romantic because they were "centrifugal in impulse, ever threatening to veer from their paths." The ordinary narrative, as from Adam's sin to Christ's judgment, no longer existed.
BERNARD BECKERMAN, an authority on Shakespeare at Hofstra College in New York, has said that the phrase "two boards and a passion" perhaps sums up all that was essential to the Shakespearean theater.
FREEDOM in change of scenery is most necessary to the Elizabethan drama. It must keep moving to hang together properly, and the multiple-stage set allows this to happen.
Shakespeare knew what he was doing. It is good to be able to see his works in their proper perspective and on their own terms. Cuts are not necessary most of the time because of the speed of the play. Mr. Beck and Glenn Bickle, the set designer, deserve a vote of thanks.
