Marferie's Swing Music
To Climax Homecoming
Swing music with the celebrated
trunrmet of Raich Marterie will
climax the events of Homecoming
Day, Nov. 15.
Students and alumni may
dance to songs such as "I Am
Yours," "Street Scenes," "Good
bye Sweetheart," and "Ten
derly" which have recently been
recorded by Marterie.
The singing star of his show is
Kaye Carr. Bob Jambie, disc
jockey for KLMS, said "One of
the interesting things about this
singer is that she can not read a
note of music but she sure can
pack a song with tons of high ex
plosives." Marteries, whose popular Mer
cury recordings opened the way
to his dance band success, began
his professional trumpet playing
career at the age of 14. At 17, he
had already settled down to full
schedules with the radio networks
in the Windy City, playing with
such name bandleaders as Paul
Whiteman, Percy Faith, John
Scott Trotter and Frank Black.
After serving in the Navy dur
ing the war, Ralph had his own
show with the major network and
in 1949, signsd a long term con
tract with 'Mercury Records.

as "The Caruso of the Trum

Soldiers In Korea Send 'Item'
To Replace Panty Raid Losses
By JANET NUSS
Staff Writer
Remember the panty raids of
last spring? Or rather, have you
succeeded in forgetting them?
News of such escapades travels
far and wide and sometimes
brings amusing and unexpected
repercussions, as the Pi Beta
Phi's recently discovered.
Five GI's in Korea wrote to
the Nebraska chapter, offering
their sympathy and an article
of GI clothing to compensate for
the girls' losses in the raid.
The five penned the letter to
"offer condolences to grief
stricken souls and ravished ward
robes." They described them
selves as "just a few fellows bid-

Dressed horror uoon reading in
the Pacific Edition of Stars and
Stripes about "those weird and
naughty" panty raids.
After reading the May 19
issue of Life, the fellows stated
that "our minds are incapable of
comprehending the degree of
violence and the amount of
plundering encountered by your
sorrowing souls."
Pantv raids are a menace to
I GI's in Korea, too, but the service
men nave amerent reasons lor
avoiding such uprisings. "You see,
our riefpnsf is the same, for our
apparel is also sought after, but
by a variety of oriental breeds
Mutual security is in demand.
"This token of sympathy, we
hope, will soothe some of the
anguish you have andergone and
in time will be thought of as a
token to be cherished by all who
were married in those days of de
vastation." The GI's continued their let
ter by saying, "We hope some
day to return and find your
college a sanctuary where per
haps this token (GI contribution
to the cause) will be regarded
reverently as a fitting memorial
to your stalwart young ladies
who, in those days of trial and
tribulation, so nobly fought in
the highest spirit of valor to
make your campus a peaceful
place."
The servicemen expressed cur
iosity about the motives behind
the "hysteria" of the panty raids
They queried whether they would,
upon their return to the. United
States, be able to adjust them
selves to civilians, or "has the
stateside population changed" so
much that only scientists can ac
count for "these fantastic and
treacherous motivations?"
Dean Asks Limit
On Poster Sizes
G. W. Rosenlof, Dean of Ad
missions and Institutional Rela
tionships, has asked that students
watch the size of posters they put
up on University bulletin boards.
He said that there is a ten
dency for some organizations to
want to place oversized posters
on the boards.
The librarian objected to the
very large posters, Rosenlof
said, and he suggested that they
be somewhere annroximately 18
inches by 24 Inches.
"I think that posters of that size
are of greater convenience and
they will tell just as much of a
story," he said.
Rosenlof commented that those
responsible for approving posters
to be put up on the various bul
letin boards will no longer ap
prove overly large posters. He
said that here after any poster that
is larger than 18 by 24 inches
will probably not be approved. '

Students
Warned
Of Fraud
A spokesman for the Division
of Student Affairs warned Uni
versity students Thursday against
fraudulent vendors visiting their
organized houses and dorms.
Vendors wishing to sell prod
ucts to organized houses under
University supervision must ob
tain a University Vendor's Permit
approved by the Better Business
Bureau.
Salesmen selling products in
women s organized houses must
also obtain a permit from the
Office of the Dean of Women
after being approved by the Divi
sion of Student Affairs.
The spokesman cited some inci
dents in which organized houses
were victims of fraud. A bogus
repairman and stationery sales-
man who required down-payments
for their products and never de
livered them visited both Univer
sity and Wesleyan campuses last
year.
The Division of Student Affairs
will not issue a "great number"
of permits. Required permits are
for the students' protection.

jfeiv Talent Sought For Afexf
University Theatre Show
By PAT PECK
Feature Editor
Are vou tired of seeing the
same old faces staring out over
the footlights at every University
Theatre play?
The directors of the plays are
getting tired of them too. There
fore, they are issuing a standing
invitation to you to hop over the
footlights and let the audience
look at you.
Thev esoecially request your
presence from 3 to 5 p.m. and 7
to 9 p.m. Tuesday when tryouts
are held for the production of
'The Circle," in Room 201 Temple
Building.
"One of the criteria for an
actor is good common horse
sense," the directors insist. This
is a great part of so-called tal
ent. And if at first you don't
cop a lead, don't fly the coop.
Someone has to play the butler,
you know. Who ever heard of
a play without a butler?
The directors are anxious to
make the University Theatre an
all-University project. Max Whit
taker and David F. Haynes, in
structors of speech and dramatic
art want to emphasize that tne
actors are not a "closed corpora
tion" or, a "clique.'"-They are
ready to welcome bizad majors,
engineers, pharmacists, geologists
and anyone else who will come.
You don't have to "crash" the
group all you have to do is pre
sent yourself at the appointed
time and ask for a script.

Is another comment that is now
a cliche. The directors ask the
privilege of being the judge of
whether or not you are good
enough Students who are in
terested usually have talent,
Whittaker and Hayes claim. I t
seems that in the acting busi
ness talent and interest travel
together.
At tryouts the students are
asked to read from the script of
the play. The director judges. It
is as simple as that. In the labor
atory theatre tryouts for "The
Inspector Calls" the director spied
some students sitting at the back
of the room. They said they were
not there to try out, but he handed
them scripts. They read and found
themselves cast.
"The Circle," an English com
edy by W. Somerset Maughm
is the story of a respectable
young lady who is torn between
respectability and romance, ac
cording to Hayes, director of
the play. Shall she or shall she
not forsake all and run off with
a poor tennis player? Her mother-in-law
did it thirty years be
fore. The play has parts for four
men and three women. The di
rector is determined to cast it
from entirely new blood if pos
sible. Whittaker and Hayes prefer
that people who appeared in "Out
ward Bound" do not appear in
"The Circle."
Time? Hayes estimates that re
hearsals will take 10 to 12 hours
per week for a month. No re
hearsals will be held on Monday
or Saturday nights, and possibly
none on Friday. Rehearsal will be
cancelled on Dec. 5, the night of
t h e Military Ball. Production
dates are ec. 10 to 13, 17 to 20.
All students are also welcome
to sign up for technical crews
which will be called later during
the rehearsals.
Remember, even the Barry
mores didn't start at the top.
