lei Ticks Up Its Heels'
In 'Fledermaus' Production
City YWCA, Home Economics Club Presidential Candidates
The Metropolitan Opera's pro
duction of Johann Strauss' oper
etta, "Fledermaus," a sensational
uccess in New York last season,
will be presented at the Univer
sity Coliseum Monday night, Jan.
21, under the sponsorship of the
Lincoln Symphony Orchestra association.
"With 'Fledermaus,' the Met,
Centrally a respectable old
ds e, lets down her hair and
j an
GILFORD
kicks up her heels. Were he
alive, Strauss would have a
higher ASCAP rating; than
Richard Rodgers, having been
quite a man for turning out
song hits and many of these
hits are packed into 'Fleder
maus.' When you hear them
sung In Broadway English by
such splendid artists as these,
you are getting the best there
could be," states John Chapman,
distinguished critic of the New
York Daily News.
Adding to the prestige of the
production from a theatrical
standpoint is Garson Kanin's stage
direction. He also has made the
new English version with lyrics
by Howard Dietz. The produc
tion was designed by Rolf Gerard,
who also did sets and costumes
for the Metropolitan's successful
"Don Carlo" last season.
During the ball in the second
act, the ballet troupe will dance
one of Strauss' most popular
waltzes, "Roses From the South,"
with choreography by Zachary
Solov and with Tatiana Grant
zeva as premiere ballerina.
Leading comedy role of Rosa
linda, the flirting, two-timing
wife, is sung by Brenda Lewis.
Vera Bryner, in male attire, is the
bored, snooty, comical Prince Or-
lofsky with a monocle and a yard
long cigaret holder.
Virginia MacWatters, as the 1
maid Adele, dresses up as a lady
and invades the brilliant cham
pagne ball, encountering there
her employer who she thought
was in jail. John Tyers is the
suave ball-master, Dr. Falke, .
the Bat, plotting the confusion !
of his friend Eisenstein, sung by !
Donald Dame. jf
"Fledermaus" means "bat," the
bird kind, not the baseball variety. m
The operetta is called "Fleder-
maus - Decause ur. r ruz rauce, g
played by John Tyers, was found
drunk in the public square after
a party, to which he had gone
dressed as a bat. He had been
left there by his pal, Eisenstein. !g
In "Fledermaus" the gay bat gets
his revenge.
The performance will start at
8:30 p.m. Prices are $4, $3, $2, and
$1.50. Special student price is $1.

Chess Playing
New Pastime
At University
The ancient game of chess is
enjoying new popularity as a past
time among University students.
Nearly every noon and after
noon there's a game going in the
Union and frequently all three of
tne union's sets are in use. A num
ber of spectators are usually
present.
Sophomore Dick Kelly helps
beginners learn the game by
using a demonstration chess
board he designed himself. He
mounted chessmen on pegged
wooden blocks which fit holes in
the squares on a large chess
board. The board stands upright
on a table and the men can be
moved at will to show plays to a
group.
' With the demonstration board
anyone can learn basic plays in' Ag Mens club initiated 26 mem-1

Ag Men's Club
Initiates 26
played chess ten years ago at the
Salvation Army recreation center
in North Platte but has never seen
game.
Kelly and Bill Steen of Lin
coln, who helped form a chess
club, believe that playing in the
Union lounge where large num
bers of students gather during
the noon hour has done a lot to
stimulate interest in the game.
Most of the interest to date has
been among men students. But!Billy Schoultz, Fred Smidt, Mervinif
Kelly hopes that coeds will join stake and George Myers.
