WAACS, WAVES Need Dream Man Declare Phi Eps
It’s not leap year, but the girls 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 Jo 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 you can understand it, your name is Gungha
Din.
This thoughtful gesture of the Phi Eps (no admission) will take place at the Coral Gables W o-man’s club, 9 p.m. to 12 p.m.
Come shed some tears ( crocodile or otherwise) for the dear lads who are leaving.—BHB

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, nonfiction, 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.
and one of America’s foremost musicians. His family was musical, every member played an instrument, so Bauer began his musical education when he was very young. The violin w*as 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, thai 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 5 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
wolves represented by the army, navy, and marines, the show had its premiere last Sunday at the U.S.O. center across the street 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 for her recalcitrant grandmother.
After harrowing experiences in the forest (most hariowing the sight of Hazel Longenecker decked out in a Marine uniform), Red Riding Hood discovers that her dear grandmamma has skipped out with an army uniform filled
by Ruth Jane Craver. The wolf, really Shirley Haimes Goldston in disguise, is prevented from molesting Red Riding Hood when he, I mean she, is notified of impending induction by means of a singing telegram.
Everything turns out all right for the Hood family, however, because the wolf leaves, and Red Riding Hood’s three little sisters, (guess what song they sing) take
