SPRING MUSICALE DELIGHTS Miss Katherine Johnson's Sineine Chief Feature of Program Better than any star course of the kind the University audiences have been used to seeing and one of the most enjoyable programs rendered in Gerrard Hall this year was the spring musicale, last Monday night, featuring Miss Katherine Johnson of Ral eigh. Miss Johnson, who wili be remembered as having sung in "The Messiah," an oratorio sung at the Episcopal church last year, has a voice of excel lent timber which never fails to win admiration. The combina tion of clear enunciation and a clearness of tone make hers a voice, of a very beautiful quality "The Angel's Serenade" by Bra- ga, with violin obligato by Win. Wright was excellently rendered. Miss Johnson's last number, a collection of four folk songs of different nations, was perhaps the most liked of all her numbers.

B u c k Wimberl v promises to make a splendid Autolycus. The casting of Charlie Coggin for the role of the merry old Fal stall" was one of the happiest se lections ol the committee. Not that Charlie, would be easily mis taken for the bluff old Knight companion of Prince Hal, but with the voice that he can assume and the costume for the part the audience may expect to see one of the best pieces of character act iug ever do:ic here by a stu dent dramatic star. The part of Prince Hal, the royal friend of Jack Falstaff and who afterwards denounces his old companion of the tavern, will be played by Dr. J. M, Booker Rehearsals for the positions of "The Tempest" to be presented have also been held; Miss Gypsy Barton will appear as Miranda.
