LANDIS HIGH INDIVIDUAL
Fourteen Squads From Seven
Schools Compete in Rock
Mountain Tourney.
Final decisions in the Rocky
Mountain conference debate
tournament held fit Denver
university last week placed Ne
braska in a first place tie with
Creighton university in the two
man team division. In a shift of
opinion vote, the audience awarded
Nebraska 91 percent of their bal
lots in a total of four debates, in
which Nebraska opposed fourteen
teams from seven other schools.
Individual honors were awarded
to John Landis, who tied for first
place in the judged oratorial con
test, and to Gene Pester, who won
fourth in the extemporaneous
speaking division.
The committee report on state
taxation introduced to the Inter
collegiate Debate senate by
Charles Steadman was one of the
two plans adopted by the body as
theoretical state laws. Topics for
the reports were chosen by the
governor of Colorado, Edwin C.
Johnson, and were prepared by in
dividual team members. Final se
lection was made by the senate,
composed of four debaters from
each of the seven schools.
Shift of opinion debates were
made before audiences on the
question "Resolved: That the na
tions should agree to prohibit the
international shipment of arms
and munitions." The question was
debated affirmatively by Gene
Pester and John Landis, while
John Stover and Charles Stead
man argued on the negative side.
Before each debate, members of
the audience would indicate their
personal opinion of the ballots
cast in Nebraska's encounters,
fifty of them showed a change to,
or retention of the arguments ex
pressed by the Husker debaters.
Teams from Colorado, South Da
kota, Wyoming, New Mexico, Utah
and Iowa were entered as confer
ence members in the contest. Ne
braska was the only non-conference
team invited to participate.

Director Disagrees
With Statement of
Music a Mans Art
"Because music is a man'a art,
you could eliminate all music writ
ten by women and hardly mis it."
This was a statement recently
made by Miss Fannie R. Buchanan,
community development specialist
In the Extension Service at Iowa
State college.
With the receipt of such a utatt
ling statement, Prof. Howard
Kirkpatrick, director of the school
of music, was considerably taken
aback. "Although it is generally
conceded that masculine art in
music is greater than that of any
woman, I doubt if I would dismiss
feminine contributions so bluntly,"
he stated. "Of course there will
never be a woman Beethoven or a
woman Wagner, but lots of ex
cellent music has been written by
womn, and the music world would
certainly lose something if all the
compositions of our women art
ists were removed."
Miss Buchanan further charged
that a serious void would be
created in the music world if all
music written about women were
removed from exlste-re. To th!
declaration. Prof. Kirkpatrick
fully agree. He pointed out the
example of Robert Schumann, the
ftmnl German composer, who
wrote 100 aongs during the first
year of his married life, and all
were about his wife. Clara.
Sentiment plays a large part
in song literature." the professor
declared, "and music about women
is of great importance to our mu
sical composition a.
AYHAWKS RALLY
IN SECOND PERIOD
32-21 Is Markin as Scarlet
Loses Second Game
Of Road Trip.
HUSKERS LEAD AT HALF
Kansas Forced to Overcome
Nebraska's Single Point
Halftime Lead.
Kansas University added the
finishing touches to another un
successful Nebraska road trip
into Big Six basketball competi
tion, takintr advantage of a
Husker second half let-down to
tally a 32-21 victory on the
Lawrence maples Monday
night. It was the second
straight loss for Nebraska, and
continued their flight to the bot
tom rung of the conference lad
der.
But for a time during the first
half, it seemed that the invading
Nehraskans would accomplish the
incredible, the impossible, and re
peat their JacK me uiani rs.uier
stunt with a triumph over the
league leaders. It looked dark for
the Kansas Jayhawkers when the
Huskers pulled ahead during the
first half nnd nlaved errorless ball
to cling with Cornhusker tenacity
to a very slim iz-ii nauume mar
gin. Too many of the fans gathered
around the maple rink remem
bered last year's two dramatic,
hectic struggles, in one of which
the Cornhuskers knocked off K. U.
and in the other of which the Jays
barely nosed out an invading Scar
let quintet for a one-point victory.
The Cornhuskers seemed just ob
stinate and disrespectful enough of
position in the conferene to forget
they were supposed to lose by all
previous reckoning and pull out a
win over the proud Jays, sitting
on the top of the heap.
But there was no need for worry
on the part of Lawrence fans. The
first half was close, true, too close
to be comfortable for the Kansans
in many places, but at the start of
the second period Gray went to
work steadily and looped in shot
after shot to send his quintet
ahead for good. Seven times the
Jayhawk found the hoop from his
guard berth, and those seven shots
