KANSAS MAP—Repairing and correcting an old physical map of Kansas for the Kansas Geological Survey are Mrs. J. Thomason, Lawrence senior, and Larry Crady, Lawrence freshman. The large physical map was made by R.C.Moore, professor of geology, more than ten years ago. The physical map usually stands on the landing between first and second floors of Lindley Hall.

Rain, Snow, Dandelions Added to Greek Woes
KU Greeks are having other problems during Greek Week besides pickets. One is the weather, the other a lack of "dandelions" for the Dandelion War.
Because of the unpredictable spring weather this year, the Greeks are taking no chances. Most of Saturday's events are going to be held in Allen Field House, Jim Johnston, Independence, Mo., junior and co-chairman of the Greek Week committee, has announced.
THE SPORTS events Saturday, which include a pancake hurdle race, a walking race, a 440-yard relay, an 880-yard relay, and a tug-of-war, will be held in the field house. It was planned to have them in Memorial Stadium. The Greek Week picnic will also be held in the field house.
Johnston said the chariot races will be held on Naismith Dr., in front of the fieldhouse, if the weather permits.
The Greeks' war on dandelions will have to wait until April 25, Kay Walker, Park Ridge, Ill., junior and co-chairman of the service project committee, said.
"We took a quick survey around campus before the snow and found two dandelions," she said.
The Greeks had planned to revive the dandelion project which was popular in the 1940's. On the first Dandelion Day in 1941, seventy-three student-faculty teams dug up more than 93,000 pounds of dandelions.
**GREEK WEEK activities were scheduled to get under way at 6 p.m. tonight with the Greek Week banquet in the Kansas Union ballroom. The main speaker is Jay Barrington, station manager of WDAF radio in Kansas City. The Greek Week queen and her two attendants will be announced at the
banquet, and scholarship trophies presented to fraternities and sororities.
Greek Week sing will be at 8 p.m. Friday in Hoch Auditorium. Nine groups have been selected from a field of sixteen in the preliminaries for the concert.
Chosen to compete in the small men's ensemble were Delta Tau Delta, Phi Delta Theta, Sigma Nu, Alpha Kappa Lambda and Tau Kappa Epsilon.
For the small women's ensemble, Alpha Phi, Delta Delta Delta, Alpha Chi Omega and Alpha Omicron Pi were selected.
DELTA DELTA Delta and Delta Tau Delta are the defending winners in their categories.
Preliminaries were not necessary for large women's or large men's divisions because the number of entries received correspond to the number of positions available.
Sigma Kappa, Delta Gamma and Chi Omega are entered in the large women's division. Gamma Phi Beta won this division last year.
Sigma Alpha Epsilon, Beta Theta Pi, Delta Upsilon and Lambda Chi Alpha are entered in the large men's division. Sigma Alpha Epsilon won this competition last year.
Peter Nero will be featured in the spring concert at 8 p.m. Saturday in Hoch auditorium. He is being sponsored by Student Union Activities in conjunction with Greek Week.

'Oh Dad, Poor Dad' to Open
"Oh, Dad Poor Dad, Mamma's Hung You In The Closet and I'm Feelin' So Sad" will be presented at 8:15 tonight in the Experimental Theatre in Murphy hall.
The play, written by Arthur L Kopit, "... is very funny in an unusual way," Perry Schwarz, Lawrence graduate student and director of the play, said.
THE PLAYWRIGHT, Schwarz explained, "... takes a serious situation and makes it funny."
"Its (the play) comedy is a comedy of a more grotesque standard," he said.
Principal character in the play is the mother, Madame Rosepettle, Schwarz said, who completely dominates people, especially her son, Jonathan.
"HE (THE SON) is not allowed to do anything . . . that the mother has not created for him," Schwarz explained. Madame Rosepettle has shut off Jonathan from the world in the assurance that he is content with the situation.
Part of Madame Rosepettle's view
of the world is expressed when she says: "Life . . . is never funny. It's grim! It's there every morning breathing in your face the moment you open your red baggy eyes."
However, contrary to his mother's opinion, Jonathan is not completely content. Schwarz said that Jonathan tries to break away from his mother but is unsuccessful because his mother has so much control over him.
TWO OTHER characters also enter the play—Rosalie, who tries to compete with Madame Rosepette for Jonathan's affections, and Commodore Roseabove who attempts to marry Madame Rosepette. Rosalie loses her battle for Jonathan. Commodore Roseabove receives a similar fate when Madame Rosepette destroys him as a man, Schwarz said.
"The play is full of theatrical gimmicks." Schwarz commented. For example, the script calls for a piranha fish that talks and Venus flytraps that come to life.
