Intersection survey planned
The State Highway Commission has initiated action to start a survey of the intersection at 19th and Iowa streets. The state crew is now putting the familiar rubber hose and steel box at the intersection to get an estimate of the rate of traffic that passes over this part of the road.
George Williams, director of public works, said the state will require about 90 days to decide whether or not a light at this location would benefit motorists. Williams said the state will notify Lawrence officials when a decision is made.
State specifications for an intersection the nature of 19th and Iowa are that to warrant a stop light, a 600 car average over an eight hour period must pass over Iowa, and a 150 car average in the same eight hour period must pass over 19th St.

Troupe stages protest play
The Arena Theatre of Sao Paulo, Brazil, will perform at the University of Kansas at 8:20 p.m. Tuesday at Woodruff Auditorium in the Kansas Union.
The play to be performed is "Arena Conta Zumbi," a drama of the black man's protest, featuring Afro-Brazilian and bossanova music. Tickets are available at the SUA ticket office in the Kansas Union for $1.50.
Sponsored by the Center for Latin American Studies, the University Theatre and SUA, the play is based on the struggle of Zumbi, a rebel slave of 17th century Brazil, who is remembered as one of the heroes of that country. But the action in "Arena Conta Zumbi" is modern with actors wearing T-shirts and chinos. The set consists only of a few platforms and a red rug.
The entire production is in Portuguese with text by Augusto Boal and Gianfrancesco Guarnieri and with music by Edu Lobo.
"Only one idea guided the creation of the text and of the show," states the program of the play, "one that is found in the writings of the Bishop of Pernambuco: 'The habit of freedom makes a man dangerous.' This is the idea: we want to be free."
