Announcement of the new officers of the Student Foun dation for the coming year reminds us that, for an organ ization which gives the university a lot of publicity, it gets little mention itself. Most of the campus knows that the Foundation pub lishes the Student Directory and that it co-sponsored the presentation of the Beauty Queens. It is, however, the un tsungr efforts of the Foundation which prove its worth. The main function of the Foundation is to impress the high school students of Nebraska, especially the seniors with the opportunities offered them by the university. To accomplish this task, the workers of the Foundation divide the state into districts, each supervised by a chairman County chairmen, working under the district head, write news stones of activities and honors which come to urn versity students whose homes are in their counties. The news is sent to the newspapers in that area and serves as a drawing card. There are also out-of-state chairmen who use the same technique in advertising Nebraska in other parts of the country. Each spring a bulletin, "Nebraska Today," is sent out to the 200 high schools of the state. The bulleitn explains to the graduating classes of the schools what activities are carried on here and summarizes the requirements and work of each college in the university. With all these duties, it is no wonder that Foundation workers forget to broadcast their accomplishments. Since a great part of each year's freshman class is recruited by that organization, the Foundation deserves much credit and a hearty pat on the back for its work. PARTYPLANS 2tJ Kullman Sings Here Monday ti - J 7 - - i V, j Wonder if they have calen dars in fraternity houses? The reason I ask is that when I called the PHI PSI house and asked for news for the coming daze, the Voice on the End of the Line hollered to all, "Do we have any parties coming up on the 28, 29, or 30 of Feb?" Gee, and it isn't even leap year! Hope someone sets that poor boy right before he finds out he's two days behind everyone else. . . Seen any fellows running: around trying: to borrow girls' wearing- apparel lately? If so, girls, don't trust them. . .they're not collecting items for the orphans in Lower Slobbovia at all; they're only attempting a guise to obtain entrance to COED FOLLIES which is all ready (what a joke!) for cur tain rise at 8 p. m. Tuesday in the Union Ballroom. I don't know what the fellows think goes on at those affairs, but all you have to say is that it's strictly all female, and they'll break their necks hanging from chandeliers trying to see and hear. The Follies should be good this year . . . providing: the participants survive 'til then... Comes the Big Event and this week it's the INTERFRATER NITY BALL to be held at the Pike Friday night. Authorita tive sources have told me that the "music is really smoooooth" ...the boys have imported PHIL LEVANT and his band from Chicago. We'd like to put in our plug now for the council and Sig Ep DICK FOLDA, president, for what we know will be one of the nicest balls of all. Only we do hope the weather man is on our side this time. That Pike is sooo cold, and formals aren't exactly the warmest type dress invented. Someone once made the statement that "It never fains but it pours," and JACKIE SCOTT would be the first to vehemently affirm the fact. Seems as though the ALPHA CHIS only have three formal events coming up ... oh well, girls, formals aren't very ex pensive or hard to ret these days. First of all, their very lovely Red Carnation Ball Fri day night at the Cornhusker. . . Jean Moyer again... it sounds awfully nice to us. . .red carna tions, the sorority flower all over the place... mmm, and they smell good too. Saturday will find them heading back to the 'Husker for the National Alum Banquet, featuring their Province Presi dent, MRS. CARL DREW, and Sunday the girls will don an other dress and all their dig nity for a tea at the chapter house in Mrs. Drew's honor. Social chairman, Jackie, will appreciate greatly any aspirin donations about Sunday eve ning... AL BERQUIST, is rounding up the SIG ALPH pledges for this Saturday nite when they throw their annual party for the actives ... at Bloomers . . . and it's so informal that it's been appropriately named the Hobo Ball ... all the hobos and hobo-ettes will dress accord ingly and have a whee of a time. . .By Wy. Angel Street Production Wednesday Footlights Eerie Tale of Suspense BY NORM LEGER. When the house lights go down and the curtain rises on the opening of "Angel Street" Wednesday night, University Theatre patrons will view a dingy room with Victorian fur nishings that creates "a feeling of dread with its eerie gas light ing. The story that is unfolded in this gloomy atmosphere only intensifies such feeling. In Victorian London. The place: The Manningham residence on Angel Street in London. The time: The late 1800's. All that is needed to give the audience moments of suspense and terror is found in the diabolical actions of the sin ister Mr. Manningham who is slowly torturing his wife into insanity. It is the friendly de tective Rough who comes to the aid of Mrs. Manningham and reveals the evil past of the fiendish Mr. Manningham. Berggren, Lucas in Leads. Barbara Berggren plays the part of Mrs. Manningham. The role of Mr. Manningham is taken by Bill Lucas. Rex Cos lor will be seen as Rough, the detective. Pat Boyd plays the part of Nancy, the maid; Doro thea Duxbury, the cook and housekeeper. Max Whittaker is directing the play. The box office will open to morrow noon and will be open every afternoon of the week until 6 p. m., according to Arlis Swanson, University Theatre business manager. fij i Dorothea Duxbury -jCourte IJncoln Jounl An oath-taking housekeeper, the shadow of a killer . . CHARLES KULLMAN. For recital -roers, a familiar programm BY SAM WARREN. If criticism has been leveled against the choice of selections programmed by concert artists this season, Charles Kullman's re cital Monday night will give cause 1 for no further criticism. Singing a program that includes some cf the best-known numbers (and best-loved, incidentally) in the concert repertoire, Kullman prom concert repertoire, Kullman promises Lincoln Symphony goers an evening of pleasant music. Fa miliar tunes and arias in no way Imply, however, that his program will' be a simple one to sing. The Bchubert group along as well as some of the spirited Italian num bers made demands on a singer's control. Schubert's "Serenade" and his "The Trout," English songs like "Passing By" and "Go Lovely Rose" and Massenet's "Ouvre tes yeux bleus" are among the songs familiar 'to concert habitues, not to mention "Annie Laurie" and "Funiculi-Funicula." Whereas many recitalists give their audiences but one aria, Kull man, who is most famous for his work in opera, has chosen to sing three, "The Flower Song" from Carmen, "The Dream" from Manon, and "Wowan is Fickle" from Rigoletto. Signe Hasso, Bob Hope's co-star in Paramount's "Where There's Life," plans return to native Stockholm in near future to por tray Joan of Arc on Royal Acad emy stage. 'jidtti ill. rUiiluiiLt oveut im ty Hey there, have you seen Randy Ewing? I'm mine. It's a two button single breasted brown sharkskin that really makes me feel on top of the world. This handsomely tail ored suit has notch lapels and a soft full drape. It's A-l in my wardrobe! When you see Randy tell him I've chosen him this week as the best dressed man on campus . . . he's a Corncob whose terrific smile and personality pep up the entire cheering section. Although from Albion he calls his first home the Kappa Sig house, "ftariay is a sophomore in Bizad and a wise one too cause he wears a HARVEY BROTHERS suit.
