PRESENTS FACULTY
RECITAL
dy and its flowing accompaniment.
One seemed to hear a quiet sea grow
rough and then become quiet again.
Mr. Schofield gave the next group.
His selections were well-suited to his
rich, smooth, baritone voice. His
first song, "Or Ch’io Non Sequo Piu”
by Ronton, had a sweet melody and
gave a creepy atmosphere. The next
two pieces, “Le Faune” and “Col-
loque Sentimental” by the modern
composer, Debussy, were unusual
and were well-adapted to show the
range of Mr. Schofield’s voice. Mr.
Schofield sang with feeling the stir
ring “Ruhe Meine Seele” by Strauss.
He was sympathetically accompanied
by Miss Ruth Marsden.
Each of the performers gave a
second group. While Miss Tucker
showed great technical skill in play
ing “Moto Perpetuo” by Alkan-
MacDowell, one was particularly im
pressed by her artistic and enthusias
tic spirit in interpreting it. The dif
ficult “Introduction and Rondo Cap-
priecioso” by Saint-Saens, with its
beautiful melody and its interesting
transitions was played with true
artistry by Miss Read. One of Miss
Shaifner’s next numbers, “Chanson
dans la Nuit” by Carlos Salzedo,
showed how various instruments may
be imitated on the harp. Miss Shaff-
ner brought out expressively the ten
der, mystic melody. Mr. Schofield
sang with enthusiasm and tenderness
“Fuzzy-Wuzzy” by Speaks.
The faculty recital, which is the
first public recital to be given this
year by the School of Music, was in
deed an artistic and enjoyable per
formance.
first to come from the “pages” to
present her fluffy pancakes. Old
Dutch Cleanser, personified by
Eleanor Cain, surprised the audience
by showing her face, and little Alice
Stough, in youthful dress and bon
net, occupied a front seat on the
stage as an Ivory Soap Maid. Judg
ing by their performance, Mary
Sample would be a good White Lead
painter and Grace Pollock a striking
pirate on Whitman’s Candy boxes.
Miriam Stevenson and Georgia Hunt
ington showed skill in imitating the
white gloved gentlemen of the world
who prefer Chesterfields because
“They’re Milder.”
Camel, Ivory Snow Flakes, and Old
Gold Coffee were also advertised.
At the close of the stunt, the par^
tieipants rushed off the stage on a
“P and G” search. Marian Hadley,
who never gave out of witty remarks
about each advertisement, was the
outstanding performer.
In the Academy Stunt, which was
given the second prize of five dol
lars, Registration Day in all its hus
tle and bustle was presented. Miss
Zachary was so well imitated that
everyone was expecting her to burst
into song. (Miss Zachary, as yoi
know, sings at all hours). Evidently
Dr. Rondthaler was much pleased
with the student who represented
him, for it is reported that he con
gratulated her. This stunt showed
various stages of Registration Day
and the reaction of “Mamma’s pet”
to being left behind. Helen Litz ably
took the part of a flapper who told
everything she knew or wanted to
know. The climax came when the
teachers aid in registration finally
succeeded in getting the girls to their
disordered rooms.
The Juniors would give an
gestive of their well-known lovesick
state. Naomi Stone, as the vamp who
had many suitors (Mary K. Thorpe,
Emma Kapp, and Joe Walker),
cleverly hid each one as the other
lover came in the door. As she
cealed each sutior under a figured
cloth, that suitor fell to the floor
a bodily position resembling a piece
of furniture. A table, chair and
stool were formed in this man
Tile love-making of Joe Walker
quite professional (ah Joe!). Every
thing was well with the dainty Miss
and lovers until mamma (B. Silvi
Steen), happened to sit on the stool
which of course collapsed. Tlie par
ty came to an abrupt end!
Last and decidedly the best s
was given by the Freshmen. It
heralded by a discordant orchestra of
amateur players and tlie mournful
iging of Lib Hatch, Mary Brooks,
Jane Williams, and Rachel Carroll
as they filed from the back of Main
Hall up to the stage. They were
dressed in convict clothes and car-
■ied heavy picks. Mary Brooks was
the Freshman prisoner at Salem
hom the other veteran prisoners at
tempted to initiate. Of course, Rachel
“himed in with her wise cracks, but
fane seemed rather bored and tried
,0 sleep (wliich act Rachel’s chatter
prevented). Lib Hatch deserved
of the credit for the success of this
Inning stunt. Her imitations
of the announcements of Miss At-
Eleanor Idol, Mary V. Pen-
dergraph and Beulali Zachary wert
incomparable. Each time that she
ade an announcement, she would
are at the ceiling and grope
ith outstretched hands as a mad
invict who had lost his memory
through long imprisonment. Phyllis
Noe successfully pictured Mrs.
Rondthaler in her kind efforts to
cheer the Freshmen.
As the stunt ended, the prisoners
dragged themselves off the stage
the accompaniment of “The Prist
ers Song” sung by the Freshmen
Class.
World Events j
China—

peaceable settlement of the Man

Washington, D. C.—
An intangible opposition to the
Roosevelt boom has been felt
throughout the land. His nomina

With the retirement of Rear Ad
miral Mag'ruder from the Navy the
nation’s three fighting arms will be
free of outspoken uniformed critics.
The Nation’s railroads lost their
ipectacular fight for high rate in
crease. The country’s carriers were
granted a schedule of selected sur
charges. The Interstate Commerce
Commission took an unexpected step
proposing that all increases be
pooled. Cash is to care for the in
terest charges. The principal farm
product rates are left unchanged.

All Turkish officials, from Presi
dent Mustapha Kemal down, must
wear clothes of Turkish manufac
ture, the Turkish cabinet decided in
a meeting at Angora. This is a part
of the Turkish Government’s
economy measure. London tailors
and Paris gowns will have to be
foregone.
Brazil has suspended payment
cash of her $500,000,000 debt. She
is to pay interest in scrip for three
years, owing to her inability to get
foreign exchange. The bulk of
ternal obligations are held in Eng

issues. The State’s debts are unaf

coffee which composes most of the
nation’s exports caused the difficul-
“A haze on the far horizon.
The infinite tender sky,
The ripe, rich tint of the corn fields,
And the wild geese sailing high.
And all over upland and lowland
The charm of the goldenrod—
Some of us call it Autumn,
And others call it God!”
—Gorton Veeder Carruth.
Paris, France—
Premier Laval, who is on his way

his seven experts who are preparing
for conversations, and are studying
the American point of view. Paris

by one-half his aim here.
Home, Italy—
Dr. Arthur H. Compton, physi

physical discoveries was at hand.
London, F.ngland—
Philip Snowyden revealed the fact
that if the National Government had

London, England—
Mahatma Ghandi, disappointed by
the lack of progress of the Indian
