University Players Keep Members of Stage Design Class Busy on Scenery For eight years Dwight Kirsch's stage design classes have been making sets for the shows pro duced by the University Players. From twenty sets a season' for six plays, the number has swelled to two hundred for the eight-year period. In each one turned out, the tnln purpose has been to co ordinate the design of the setting with" the idea of the play, thus ef fecting: the desired mood for each scene. The use of colors and lights has been employed in careful de tail to this end. "Emperor Jones," put on by the Players in 1929, required sets for eight separate scenes. The story concerns a negro convict who es capes from prison and makes his way to an island of the West In dies! nd from then on most of the action takes place at night "Fashion," produced in the spring of 1931, also called for much expenditure of paint time snd.energy. The show is the first td have been written by an Amer ican woman, and duplets the ele gance and elaboration of dress and UNIVERSITY TO ENTER STOCK IN EXHIBITION Gramlich Announce Will Display Animals at Ak-Sar'llon Shou: The university win enter some livestock in the annual Ak-Sar-Ben livestock exposition being held in Omaha the latter part of this montn, according to an announce ment made by Prof, H.

According to members of the fra ternity the cause of the fire is un known, but it was necessary to call the Lincoln fire department to extinguish the blaze. The build ing, which is situated on the north west corner of the lot, is a small structure, and the loss was not great furniture of the time it was first shown. Several drops were needed for each scene. The ingenuity of the artists has been put to the test on many oc casions, and many are the sets which have been made to serve the purpose of new scenes. A cer tain corner fireplace, an affair with a hood, was used later for the bases of trees in "Emperor Jones," and still later utilized as a rock. The balcony so prominent in "Ro meo and Juliet" was so con structed that it could be covered and the lower part used as a fire place. In another scene the open ing appeared as the doorway to the apothecary shop. - In "Journey's End" and "John Ferguson" alone has the same scenery been used throughout the play. Twenty or thirty members of the stage design classes each year have been kept busv through out the season providing sets o reflect just the right shade of at mosphere for, each individual play.

Organizations Join In Urging Students Support Their Tean As the final, hours of the campus-wtce cr.ve on student athletic tickets approaches, we, the undersigned organiz ations, urge all students who can possibly do so to take ad vantage of this opportunity to get behind their school team, materially as well as in spirit. We believe that this year's tudent athletic ticket, selling at $6.00 the lowest price in years and the lowest price in the Big Six conference is within range of every student on the campus. At an aver age cost of less than thirty three cents per event we feel that it is not only the best, but the most economical en tertainment which Lincoln has to offer. See a salesman today or tomorrow morning you can tell them by the ribbons they wear or you may call the Daily Nebraskan and Corn husker offices and get your ticket to the athletic affairs of all Cornhuskerdom.
