presented in the Palais-Roval in
Paris in 1(573.
Shown at the left are Jon Pru

By Marjorie May.
Before approximately 5,000 spec
tators, Maurine Malster, arts and
science senior, shown above, was
presented as Honorary Colonel at
the annual Military Ball Friday
night in the coliseum. The choice
was scarcely a surprise to univer
sity students, since she was backed
by the Barb parly, which won
most offices at the Nov. 12 elec
tion. Beginning at 9:15, the program
opened with an overture by the
ROTC band and orchestra, followed
by an exhibition by the crack
squad of Pershing Rifles. When
the curtain on the stage parted,
revealing a tuireted castle, the or
chestia began the march music
and cadet officers entered with
their partners.
After attempts to penetrate the
castle walls, in which the Honorary

Ace Brigode and his Virginians,
with "one of the most danceable
orchestras in the nation," will play
for the Mortar Board party Fri
day night, replacing Itrry Clin
ton.
Two weeks ago Clinton accepted
the Mortar Board offer through
booking agency and the contracts
were sent here to be signed. The
signed contracts were returned t
the booking agency and the story
wa.s released that he would !e Ivere
for the party Friday night. A
week later word was received that
Clinton had refused to sign, so
there was no contract.
The Black Masques consider ett
Carlos Molina and Charlie Agnew.
They rejected both. Rather than
cancel the party they opened ne
gotiations with another booking
agency, and Brigode and his banl
I were secured.
Ate Brigode organized his band
in West Virginia immediately fol
lowing the World War. From here
it gets the name Virginians. The
Virginians have appeared in
Flitch's Gardens in Denver, the
Merry Garden Ballroom in Oiica

ly over both the CBS and NBC
networks.
Brigode offers any and all types
of dance music. Singers Ruth
