WAACS, WAVES Need Dream Man
Declare Phi Eps
It's not leap year, but the girb
are going to get a turn in electing
campus monarchs. At the Phi Epsilon Pi Farewell dance, (bye-bye
to boys bowing out for Blanding)
next Friday night, the co-eds will
choose the "man-they-would-like-
most-to-come-home-to.) Complicated, we know, but that's what
Chairman Eddie Spizel told us,
because he feels that the future
WAACs and WAVES ought to
have a dream man. It's supposed
to be a take-off on the current
hit tune, "You'd be so nice to
come home to." If ypu can understand it, your name is Gungha
Din.
This thoughtful gesture of the
Phi Eps (no admission) will take
place at the Coral Gables Woman's club, 9 p.m. to 12 p.m.
Come shed some tears ( crocodile
or otherwise) for the dear lads
who are leaving.—BHB

Pianist Bauer To Be Soloist
At Symphony Sunday
Harold Bauer, world-famous pianist who has taught master
classes in piano at the University for the past few years during the
winter sessions, will appear as soloist with Dr. Modeste Alloo and
the University symphony orchestra Sunday afternoon. The concert,
to be held in the Miami high school auditorium, will begin at 4:4S.
Born in England, Bauer has since become an American citizen
and   one   of   America's   foremost
Faculty Leads
Victory Drive
According to a tabulation taken
Wednesday night, the huge thermometer on the library wall to
record donations for the victory
book drive, 250 books had been
donated by campus groups. Leading is the faculty and staff group
who have contributed 47 volumes.
Tied for second place are Chi
Omega and Delta Zeta who have
each given 46 books. Following
close is Sigma Alpha Iota with 42
books.
Latest fad on the campus, the
drive is being sponsored locally
by Nu Kappa Tau, honorary fraternity for women, and nationally
by the American Library association, the American Red Cross,
and the United Service Organizations.
Today is the last day of the
drive whose goal had been set
at 500. Collection is being made
at the loan desk of the library
reading room. Students are urged
to bring any book that they like
themselves (give the book you
want to keep)—with fiction, non-
fiction, histories, geographies, mechanical and even comic books of
recent publication heading the
list, Magazines, pamphlets, books,
and booklets are needed for our
fighting men, wherever they may
be.
Arrangements for the drive
are being made by Dorothy Levin, publicity, Jean ■ Drake, faculty notices, and Helen Gwinn,
sororities and fraternities.
musicians. His family was musical, every member played an instrument, so Bauer began his musical education when he was very
young. The violin was his instrument at first. He began studying
when he was only five years old,
and at ten gave his first concert
with a symphony orchestra.
For several years he traveled
over England as a concert violinist. It was during a tour of Russia, as assisting violinist, that he
had to fill in a program with piano
solos. His audience recognized him
as a pianist. Paderewski advised
him to study further with the instrument and to become a concert pianist. For three years he
worked on a course of intensive
study. Then came a concert in
Madrid. The audience gave only
praise. He laid aside his violin.
Since then, Bauer has played
with every major symphony orchestra in the world. In 1900 he
came to America to appear as
soloist with the Boston symphony
orchestra. His home, now, is in
New York.
With Dr. Alloo and the University orchestra Sunday afternoon, Bauer will play the Beethoven G major piano concerto as
his main selection for the afternoon. The orchestra has chosen
The Second Symphony, in D major, of Sibelius for its major work.
Von Weber's "Euryanthe" overture will open the program.
Busses 14, 15, and 16, going
directly to the concert, will leave
Burdine's rear entrance every
ten minutes. Students may reserve seats by signing up in the
symphony  orchestra  office.—BNN

Major Productions At U. Cancelled;
Red Riding Hood Meets Wolves At USO
Now that major productions have been banned for the duration,
the drama department, headed by Mrs. Opal Motter, is giving its
all to the U.S.O. with Unit S as the major offering.
The new show, "Red Riding Hood and the Wolves," was adapted
from the Theta Alpha Phi skit that Kappa Kappa Gamma presented last year in the annual Follies. Brought up to date with the

its premiere last Sunday at the
U.S.O. center across the stceet
from the Embry Riddle school.
Over-riding the fact that there
is no stage at the center and that
the actresses had to make their
appearances and exits to the side
of the auditorium, if it can be
called that, the show was a howling success. With authoress Betty
Batcheller acting as mistress of
ceremonies, the ancient story of
Little Red Riding Hood is played
by Rebecca Jackson who wends her
unhappy little way with a bromo
