TEACHER OF FAMED
Prof. Baker of Yale Trained
Eugene O'Neill, Sidney
Howard and Others.
NEW YORK. Jan. 17. (C.N.S.)
Prof. George Pierce Baker of the
Yale university drama school, who
perhaps has started more play
wrights on the road to success
than any other man, died this
week at the age of t8.
Professor Baker made revolu
tionary changes and contributions
to modern drama yet never was
seen over the footlights or in the
marquise.
The work that made him famous
the world over was the training of
budding playwrights and pro
ducers who registered as his stu
dents for "English, 47" at Har
vard university or "Drama, 47" at
Yale university.
From his "47" showshops came:
Eugene O'Neill, three times win
ner of the Pulitzer prize in drama,
author of "Emperor Jones,"
"Strange Interlude," and "Mourn
ing Becomps Electra."
Sidney Howard, whose "They
Knew What They Wanted" won
the Pulitzer prize in 1925.
Walter Pritchard Eaton, play
wright and critic, who succeeded
Professor Baker as teacher of
"Drama 47" at Yale.
Lee tSimonson, scenic designer
and director for the Theater Guild,
and Robert Edmond Jones, vhoJ
designed the costumes and sets for
O'Neill's "Mourning Becomes Elec
tra." Professor Bake r's teachings
were based on an idea that drama
could be taught in classes and
should be taught thru practical
work in mechanics of the stage.
He became director of the "47"
workshop at Harvard, assistant
professor of English in i9o, ana
full professor in 1905. After thirty-
six years as a member of the Har
vard faculty, ne went to aie in
1925 as chairman of the depart
ment of drama and director of the
new Yale university theater.
There he taught until his retire
ment on July 1, 1933.
Sooners' Winning Streak in
Basketball Broken
By Kansas.
EBLING LEADS SCORING
The defending champion KansH
Jayhawkers remained undefeated
in conference rivalry Tuesday
night at Lawrence as they some
what uncourteously, and with ap
parently little regard for the van
ity of the Oklahoma university
basketball team, escorted the luck
less Sooners out of a tie for the
Big Six conference leadership.
As the fast breaking Oklahom-
ans were handed their first loss in
the conference by the decisive
margin of 50 to 23, the Jayhawkers
killed two birds with one stone, by
breaking the Sooners' winning
streak of four straight victories,
all scores over Kansas State and
Missouri, and lengthening their
own record of undefeated contests
to the creditable number of four
straight wins. Prior to Tuesday
night's crucial game, Kansas had
beaten Missouri twice and Kansas
State once.
Only Nebraska, by virtue of her
"scratch" victory over Iowa State
Saturday, remained in a tie with
Kansas for the position at the head
of the conference list.
Ray Ebling, Kansas scoring ace,
who led the league last week, was
the main stave in the annihilation
with six field goals and eight free
throws out of ten tries for a total
of 20 markers. Oklahoma never
seriously threatened throughout
the contest trailing 26 to 12, as the
gong rang for the half-time inter
mission. As the Jayhawkers tried to
stretch the score to 50 in the clos
ing moments of the game, reserves
battling furiously for both sides
brought the crowd to its feet in an
uproar. The spectators' hope was
realized in the final Jayhawk bas
ket, when Alphonso Wellhauson. 6
foot 7 inch sophomore center, got
his only basket of the contest

from all angles (pause for our own
personal survey). Professor Guil

The tobacco raised in Virginia ami exchanged
