ADJUSTING ONE'S LIFE
Chemistry Professor States
Opinion Of Church
Loyalty Weeks.
In keeping with the seven loy
alty weeks from February 25,
through Easter, to April 8, B. Clif
ford Hendricks, associate profes
sor of chemistry at the university,
yesterday stated his opinions on
the topic, "What Worship Means
to Me."
"As students, we soon learn to
concentrate on the task in hand,"
declared Prof. Hendricks, "and in
terest increases as more and more
undivided attention is given to it.
But the effect of interest and en
thusiasm for what we are doing
may result in a lop-sided devotion
to it. In extreme cases meal time
may . be forgotten, sleep habits
broken and Sunday opportunities
passed by. This is not so when the
less tangible call of Sunday's pro
gram is ignored."
"It is easy to become lost in the
details of our studies," he con
tinued, "and we need to step aside
frequently from our university af
fairs and consider our places in the
larger world, in the eternal scheme
of things. I find nothing so help
ful in trying to make this adjust
ment as the worship service of my
Church. The regularity of its oc
currence, the ministry of its mu
sic, the beauty of its ritual of wor
ship, and the inspiration of its
pulpit message all have no equal in
aiding me to get into tune with the
universe."

The "Raftero" embraces eleven different rhythms
and combines the bet-t features of the French and Spanish
tangos and the rhumba with a variety of new steps, yet
is simple enough to be danced by the average dancer.
The "Raftero" makes its bow in "Bolero," the Paramount
production in which George Raft for the first time brings
his dancing to the screen. The picture conies this week
to the Stuart theater.
LeRoy Prinz, Paramount dance director who first
brought the rhumba to America, christened the new
dance the "Raftero," in honor of Raft, with whom be
collaborated on the seventeen movements it embraces.
The dance starts with a fast tango, then slows into
the French tango, and the sensuous .slow movements of
the Argentine and the rhythmic body movements of the
Cuba rhumba are combined. 1
Any regulation Argentine tango steps may be used
to start the routine, with the couple ending in a front
"corte." The man then follows the girl in circles, and
they go back to a slow tango. They come to a straight
standing position, as in a rhumba step with the left
foot forward, then the right, then forward and face each
other, again as in a rhumba.
The girl pivots, with the man standing still. He
takes her in regular ballroom position, and makes four
turns around the floor, as in a French tango. They
halt, then take four steps forward; repeat this action,
and end in a "corte" as in the first position. Then comes
a series of crossing of the feet, first to the right, then to
th.2 left, which ends in a "corte."
No. 1 The dance starts with
regulation fast turns. The man
follows the girl in circles. They
go into a regular slow tango as
shown in position one, a front
"corte."
No. 2 They come to a straight
standing position as shown in
position two. They then step with
the left foot forward; then right;
then left, into
No 3 Position three.
No. 4 Then back into same as
position two.
No. 5 Step forward again,
from position two into position
five. Then take four steps back
with feet in this position; then
face each other as in
No. 6 Position six. Then step
left, right, left and throw the
right foot behind as shown in
No. 7 Position seven. Repeat
this, with the left foot behind.
Then separate, and the girl stands I (close to body) making complete
still and pivots, as in position
seven, and, in
No. 8 Position eight, back to
back looking at each other.
No. 9 Repeat seven and eight,
and end as shown in position nine,
face to face. From this, come into
regular ballroom position, and man
turns girl, as in
No. 10 Position ten. Then,
dance first to right; then to left
turn and bringing girl back into
same position. Then four fast
turns in ballroom style, around
floor. Then, into ballroom posi
tion with four straight steps for
ward. Then again, into
No. 11 Position eleven, with
the left foot back, and the right
over (in the back) twice. Then
repeat the corte as shown in posi
tion one. Then out of it, Into

SUITS and TOPCOATS
Easter Sunday falls on April 1st this year
. . . earlier than usual but we're in com
plete readiness to make you one of the
paragons of correct style and smart tail
oring ii. the Easter parade.
There's a totally new character to the
textures for this Spring both in suits and
topcoats; rough fabrics; more loosely
draped models. Better see these; for
style; for value.
