sorship other than that of uni
verstiy language departments, a
series of especially-selected for
eign motion pictures will be
brought to the campus by the

Eisenstein's latest picture, "Ivan
the Terrible," released in Russia
this year, is now playing in New
York. The first part only of a
three-part series, "Ivan" drew this
comment from Time Magazine in
there April 7th issue: 'Eisenstein
has produced another masterpiece,
but it does not meet the greatness
of his earlier movie, 'Peter the
Great.' "
Ernlish Sub-Title.
The sound track is in Russian,
with English sub-titles. The film
deals with the life of the power

until 1725. It was Peter who
acquired the Baltic provinces, re
modeled the Russian army and
navy, brought urbanization to
Russia, and founded St. Peters
burg (now Leningrad). In addi
tion to the historic achievements
of the czar, a body of legend
has grown up about him. Be
cause of his ftuge physique, as
well as his notable exploits, many
tales are told about him similar
to the American folk-tales of Paul
Bunyan.

get in from the Saturday night

If you are planning on studying
tonight like a beaver for Monday,
(that's tomorrow) just forget it
and play cards or something. You
don't want to go to school Monday:
it's gonna rain! The weatherman
says "Showers and cooler Monday
with highest temperatures below

two sections of university chorus.
Honor War Dead.
Similar musical programs have
been chosen by other universities
to honor the memory of their war
dead, according to Dr. Karl Arndt,
convocations chairman, and it was
felt that a performance of Verdi's
"Requiem," a mass for the dead,
would be an appropriate com
memoration.
Mr. Smith and Mr. Ganz, tenor
and baritone soloists, were heard
together in this year s perform
ance of the "Messiah." Mr. Smith
is a frequent soloist in cantata
and oratorio performances
throughout the state, and recently

St. Olaf choir on nationwide tours.
He was appointed instructor in
voice here in 1941.
Voice Instructor.
Mr. Ganz, instructing voice on
a teaching fellowship, is a gradu
ate student, receiving his degree
here in 1940. He sang a leading
role this year in the opera "Pagli
acci," and as an undergraduate
was soloist in four productions of
the "Messiah" and one of Haydn's
"Creation." He has become well-
known in local music circles.
Before coming to the university
in the summer of 1946 to begin
graduate study, Miss Mace com
pleted undergraduate work in mu
sic at Simpson College, Iowa, and
taught music in public schools for
two years. Hers was one of the
solo voices in this year's Christ
mas Carol Concert by the Univer
sity Singers.

braska student Harry Harter's
"Paisajes de Monterey" in which
faculty pianist Mary Louise
Boehm will be heard at the piano.
Harter's "Landscapes of Mon
terey" is not a demonstration of
virtuosity for either piano or
orchestra, but is described as an
expression of an idea, the reality
of an existing tragedy. The com
poser's program notes read: "En
tangled with the influences of our
complex life, man meditates on
the past, seeking to restore his
treasured relation with the good
earth, and seeking to reconcile

Contest Rules
For Ivy Day
Poet Revealed
All undergraduate students are

to annual Ivy Day traditions, and
the winner will be announced
previous to Ivy Day ceremonies
himself with his religion. This h
the motif upon which the com
position is built."
Sea Mood.
The composition is made up of
three parts, altho these are not
divided. The opening portion is a
description of the dreary mist ris
ing over the waters. A mysterious
mood is set by the muffled roar
of the sweeping waves rolling in
and out in metrical rhythm, and
by the muted sound of fog horns
bellowing their warning. Here, the
composer says that man tries to
recall what has once made him
feel close to the soil and to hit
God, and to relieve again those
experiences.
The second section reflects a
religious theme, progressing in the
third part to reminscence of Mon
terey fiestas with dance rhythms
and simulations of Spanish plucked
instruments. The entire theme is
highly subjective ,and actually not
geographical except for the Cata
lian melodic line and its typical
Latin-American rhythms.
