There were no cigars at the
Farm House fall party, but there
were two pin hangings. Kenneth
Messersmith hung his shield on
Verna Glenn after a fanfare and
during the second half of the
dance, that is, after intermission
Don Wielage put his pin on Esther
Manion. Randy Pratt got in on
the fun by announcing the events
..Incidentally, Randy took his lit
tle blond friend from high school
. . .Not going steady any more are
Ti Phi Barbara Neeley and Alpha
Sig Bob Hyde. She has decided
that her heart is elsewhere. Could
it be it went to the game yester
day? You know how fond of foot
ball playesr she is. . .The Kappa
Kappa Gammas have a tutor for
Poly Sci. Will anyone knowing
who said tutor is please call the
Daily and let us know?
Brand New!
Two new pinnings happened at
the Kappa house. Mary Runyan
came down to dinner Friday night
and wore a Sig Alph pin. She
wore it to the SAE hour dance,
too. Letting you in on the secret,
seems one of the Mills brothers,
at least that is who they thought
it was, lost his pin and Mary found
it. She returned the pin at the
dance, so she is again free... The
other pin was worn last night for
the first time by Pat Catlin. Do
you know whose it is?... Two Al
pha Chi alumni are in town. They
are Mary Lee Adams and Beth
Schroeder. Beth is no longer
wearing Bud Buzard's Sigma Nu
star... Billy Bryan, Alphi Phi
pledge, had a date with Phi Gam
Bud Johnson last Friday. . .Going
to Omaha and we don't mean the
ball was Dorothy Stotts of the
dorm. She went down for Creigh
ton's homecoming and an added
attraction fellow named Whitey.
It Happens All the Time.
Can't blame Jim Vanlanding
ham, ATO, for being crazy about
Theta pledge Maxine Thomas.
There are lots of fellows that way
...A rejuvenated romance which
dates back to a high school ro
mance is that of Alpha Chi Mary
Thorley and Chet McCoy. . .At the
Farm House party were Rodney
Rathbone of Baldwin hall and the
home town girl, Christine Peter
son, with whom he has been going
steady for three years. . .Tommy
Hayes was at Broadview Country
club, too. He took Barbara Smith.
Incidentally, while dancing, and
not with Barbara, either, he just
euddenly sat down. Oops!
At the Pike.
Artie Shaw drew such a crowd
that you couldn't move, hardly...
About the most surprising thing
that happened was the discovery
that Guy Williams, yes the Acacia
Williams, is married to Helen Hen
dricks. They were married May
31 last year and no one found out
till Friday when they double dated
with five Acacias and their dates.
Well, good luck, even if it is a lit
tle late... Mary Kierstead is really
glassy eyed about that guy from

...Also in the Kappa house hap
pened this little incident. The
Kappas were entertaining the In

etc., was sitting between Susie
Woodruff and Phid Hoffman.
Years ago a Kappa had broken a
date with him so he lords it over
them with a little feud (all in fun).
When the Kappas sang a Kappa
song everyone clapped but Walt,
who booed. The rest of the eve
ning was spent in riding poor
Walt. They called him names,
told him he couldn't ever have any
dates in the Kappa house, and the
worse they wouldn't lrt him have
any ci-arets. Good thing some
thing funny happens once in a
while.

With Brilliant
Costuming
Graff Ballet Troupe Presents
Colorful Impression of Danee
By Preston Hays
The Graff Ballet troupe's pres
entation Friday night was a color
ful example of modern impression
ism in dance. Satire, mimicry,
drama, emotion, comedy all were
incorporated in the vigorous chore
ography which was conceived by
the principals of the troupe, Grace
and Kurt Graff.
Costuming was brilliant, and
staging and lighting were expert
ly handled. The accompaniment of
two pianos was effective and men
tion should 1k made of the musi
cal score, the large part of which
is the original work of Joseph
Hawes, one of the accompanists.
Modern, impressionistic, fanciful
- the music was brilliant in mood
portrayal and appropriately de
scriptive of the dance forms. As
ballet music in the present day
tradition, it was impressive,

The countesses carried bouquets
of waxy whit? gardenias which
made a striking contrast against
the background of their cardinal
red gowns.
Costumes worn by princesses
and countesses were Nanty orig
inals. The bodices were tight fit
ting while the skirts were very
full and had short trains. For
the first time, they showed the
new long waisted effect at an
Ak-Sar-Ben ball.
The Ak-Sar-Ben coronation be
ing the largest opening of formal
season in the middlewest, it at
tracted thousands of people from
Omaha, Lincoln, from all over this
section of the country and many
university students. All alike were
delighted with the magnificent
spectacle and many from this
group with additional thousands
attended the ball last night at
which Artie Shaw played and
J James Melton sang.

Several sections of the program
were especially satisfying, the ro

Graffs, especially so. A brilliant
moment was the surrender of the
girl of the streets to death, in the
sequence titled "Ode to the Liv
ing." In a satirical humorous vein,
"Vintage- 1912'' and "The Garden
