March of the Little Tin Soldiers Plerne Triumphal March from “Cleopatra” Manclnelll OUTSTANDING STUDENT of the MONTH —Manley-Brower Photograph Maxwell (Speed) Marvin was chosen the Outstanding Student of the Month in the Hurricane-sponsored contest series, because of his work as chairman and guiding light of the very successful Theta Alpha Phi Follies held last Friday evening in the auditorium. From three names submitted by the nominating committee composed of Mary B. Merritt, dean of women; Tom Condon, president of the stu- dent body; and Florence Fowler, ed itor of the Hurricane, Marvin was unanimously chosen by the judging committee to be honored by public recognition for individual achievement. Judges include the nominators, six Senate members, Dr. Robert Mc-Nicoll, professor of Latin-American relations, and Dr. Walter S. Phillips, professor of botany. Marvin’s work in putting over his fraternity’s second annual show and his own uproarious burlesque per formance in “Hardship Handicap’’ climaxed four years of outstanding accomplishment in the field of University dramatics. Born in Elmira Heights, New York, he began at an early age to study the saxophone and trumpet and for seven years played these instruments in the show business around New York City. Before entering the University in 1934, he studied for a year at a dramatic school and has since become very active in that field. He is president of Theta Alpha Phi, national dramatics fraternity, member of the Honors Literary Society, Rho Beta Omicron, public speaking fraternity, and is former business manager of the University Players. After graduation, Speed will work with Nick Kenny in New York during the summer and will try for the legitimate stage in the fall.

The Miami affirmative team of Jerry Weinkle and George Wheeler will debate the St. Petersburg Junior College negative team tonight at seven-thirty in the Social Hall on the subject “Resolved: That the National Labor Relations Board Be Empowered to Arbitrate in All Industrial Disputes.” Lloyd White and Dan Satin, freshmen, will debate the St. Petersburg affirmative team on the subject “Resolved: That the Several Southern States Should Adopt a Unicameral System of Legislation.” The debate will be held either this afternoon at four-thirty in the auditorium or else tomorrow morning before the political science class in the auditorium. Definite details will be available as soon as the St. Petersburg team arrives this afternoon. Lank Looie Leary Leaves Labor, Looks Longingly, Lauds Loudly By Virginia Witters The sight of a tall, upright man with a pipe clenched in his teeth as he hurried down the hall, sent me scurrying in his wake the other day. Finally catching up, I puffed. “Hello, stranger, how about a few words with you?” “Certainly, Lady of the Press. What can I do for you?” answered Mr. Lewis Leary as he removed that much worn pipe from his mouth. “Well, there are a good many things I want to hear about—your book, how you like New York, what you think of the Hurricane this year, etc.” “Not so fast, there. Let’s take them one at a time. I’ve nothing to say about my book at present except that my time is spent working on it. As for New York—well, it is a pretty cold place but Mrs. Leary and I like it very much. Now back here, I find the school much improved and the plan to change the patio is one of the best ideas about. It would improve the looks of the University a great deal . . .” Typical of Mr. Leary, he had waited till last to answer the question most interesting to me. Impatiently I broke in with — “How about the Hurricane?” “Oh, yes the Hurricane. Well, I find it greatly improved. It is a better balanced paper and very readable. The staff has done very well and I hope will keep up the good work after Flo has gone. This reduced size, of course, is a setback but I imagine the student body will support any move to make the larger size possible,” he smilingly answered. Now that the question nearest my heart had been answered, I managed to take in a few outward details just for my own observation. Despite a dark heavy suit and quite a few added pounds, he hadn’t changed at all, even to the chalk on his elbows. The purpose of his visit, he explained, was to warn Mr. Mason that the desk in room 207 was not Mason but Leary property and that friend Mason had better keep his feet off it. His mission accomplished, Looey guessed that he would say “hello” to a few more people and then go back north. With that, he started down the hall again at his usual breath-taking clip, yelling a hasty farewell en route. Holdsworth to Address I.R.C. Dr. John Thom Holdsworth, dean of the School of Business Administration, will be guest speaker at the International Relations Club meeting Wednesday evening at 7:30 in the Social Hall. His subject will be “Democracy in Reverse” followed by a round table discussion. Sal Mastro and Miguel Colas, who are now attending the IRC convention at Vanderbilt University, will give reports on the sectional meeting. Senate Acts To Unsnarl Hurricane Return to 7-column Edition Seen After Favorable Report on Paper’s Finances Exercising its senatorial prerogative, the Student Senate last Friday cleared the room of outside students and dealt with Hurricane business behind closed doors. An account of the meeting, however, was submitted to the Hurricane by the regularly appointed Senate reporter. To Vote Tomorrow on Increase Hope for a return to the seven-column page size was strengthened when George Wheeler, appointed temporary business manager, gave a favorable report of the Hurricane’s finances. At a meeting called for tomorrow morning the Senate will vote on an increase in the student activity fee, the fund to be alloted to University publications. If the bill is passed, the Hurricane’s additional allotment will be used for the paper’s present maintenance and not applied to past debts, the Senate promises. Unless voted closed by a quorum of the Senate, tomorrow’s meeting at 10:10 will be open to the student body. Quarterly Report* Demanded The motion was made and carried that the editor be required to make a quarterly report before the student legislative body on the editorial status of the Hurricane, at the same time stating reasons for the dismissal or resignation of any staff member. The Hurricane business manager must also make a quarterly report to the Senate on the paper’s financial status. The ruling was made that financial requisitions for the Hurricane be signed by both editor and business manager, and that a complete modern accounting Bystem be set up for the Hurricane accounts. Vote of Thank* Raised Hurricane business thus disposed of, the Senate turned its attention to other matters. A vote of thanks to George Holt, instrumental in obtaining the county publicity fund allotment for the University; a $15 reimbursement to a member of the freshmah class for the losses incurred during the Freshman Frolics; and a $77 appropriation for the Junior Prom were passed before adjournment at 10:50 a.m. Belaunde’s Death Blow To Friends Rafael Belaunde, Jr., former University profeaaor, who died Saturday at hi* home in Lima, Peru. Secrecy Surrounds Junior Prom Favors Bought This Week Traditional secrecy veils the Junior prom favors which were selected last week by General Chairman Rubilou Jackson and Favors Chairman Doris Page.

Heart Ailment Closes Career Of Peruvian In Latin American Relations Here Was Former Instructor Rafael Belaunde, Jr., former instructor in Latin-American relations at the University, died Saturday after a brief heart illness at his home in Lima, Peru. In Miami and in many parts of this country he was well-known for his activities in encouraging the development of inter-American friendship. Noted as an orator as well as a teacher, he worked tirelessly among American social and cultural organizations to promote his ideal of Pan-Americanism. Educated in Lima and Pari* Born in Lima, March 17, 1909, he was educated in private high schools in Peru, at the University of San Marcos, and at the Sorbonne in Paris, France, where he lived with his parents for several years. In 1930 he came to the University of Miami as instructor in Spanish, at the same time completing requirements for his A.B. degree. It was at this time that he gradually turned the larger part of his attention to the teaching of Latin-American relations. He left Miami in 1934 for the University of Texas where he earned his masters’ degree. The following year he married Miss Maria Barreda of Lima and returned to the University of Miami as instructor in Latin-American relations. His Death Unexpected Since 1936 he had served as professor of history and world affairs at Catholic University in Lima. There he unexpectedly fell ill with the heart ailment that caused his death. His father, Rafael Belaunde, sr., is Peruvian ambassador to Mexico and has served on the University faculty as professor of Spanish.

In addition to these entertainers, the entire Royal Palm Club floor show will be presented. Charles Heckman, University graduate and member of the force, is in charge of arrangements and is looking forward to “a swell affair.” The dance is being given for the benefit of the Coral Gables Police Benevolent Association. Tariff will be $1.00 per person. Several University students and graduates are now on the force in addition to Heckman include Lloyd Solie, Jim Beary, John Ott, and Bill Kimbrough. Glaucus Atlanticus Makes Debut John McLeland, instructor in accounting, discovered a little known member of the snail family which he has turned over to the zoology department. The snail, or glaucus atlanticus as it is technically known, was found in Dania, far north of its natural habitat, the Sargassum Sea. The specie has an average size of one to one and a half inches, is of brilliant blue and silver coloration, and contrary to time-honored snail custom, does not live in a shell. An enlarged drawing in color of the glaucus has been made and may be seen in the zoology laboratory.

Glaucus Atlanticus Makes Debut John McLeland, instructor in accounting, discovered a little known member of the snail family which he has turned over to the zoology department. The snail, or glaucus atlanticus as it is technically known, was found in Dania, far north of its natural habitat, the Sargassum Sea. The specie has an average size of one to one and a half inches, is of brilliant blue and silver coloration, and contrary to time-honored snail custom, does not live in a shell. An enlarged drawing in color of the glaucus has been made and may be seen in the zoology laboratory. |
