Grecian Games
Will Be Motif
In Dance Drama
Old-Fashioned W'altzers
To Spring From Fan,
Trip Fantastic
Orchesis-Mu Phi Program
Promises Action
Purple and gold etehed against a
background of pure white. The
Amazon-like movements of the
Greek women playing, in rhythmic
dance form, the old Greek games of
dancing, wrestling, racing and leap
ing, contrasted with the classical
beauty of the Carytid figures in pure
white which serve as pillars to the
temple in the background.
Such will be the motif of one of
the group dances in the Dance
Drama, to be at the McDonald the
ater the evening of April 7.
Effects Good
Members of the two organiza
tions who are sponsoring the pro
duction, Orchesis and Mu Phi Ep
silon, have entire charge of the cos
tuming and staging this year, and
are working out some beautiful ef
fects, according to early reports.
In direct contrast to the Greek
games will be another dance which
revives the old-fashioned waltz.
Two figures, dressed in quaint, but
beautiful old costumes, will come
to life from an open fan in the back
of the stage, and the waltz of the
old days will live again before the
audience.
“More Action!”
These two dances show the wide
range through which the program
varies. There will be seven of the
group dances, comprising the first
part of the program. Some of them
are dramatic, some full of action,
some quaint, and one is humorous.
Mu Phi Epsilon will have charge
of the music for all the program, but
besides this, there will be one part
of the performance entirely for
music.
“The Birthday of the Infanta,”
by Oscar Wilde, will furnish the
basis for the third part of the Dance
Drama. However, this will not be
confined to the Spanish setting
which Wilde gives it, but will be
worked out in a general nature.

Hayfever Will Meet
Resistance of Health
Service This Spring
Plans are already being made by
the University Health Service to
cope with the usual spring hayfever
complaints of the campus. The hay
fever season begins about the latter
part of April, but the treatment,
which consists of inoculation,
should be given before the season
begins. It is advisable for .this rea
son that those who are- bothered
with the disease go to the dispen
sary for treatment.
This year the health service ex
pects to put on a series of tests to
determine, as far as possible, the
cause of the disease in the particu
lar cases. Many of the cases are
due to pollen, and tests will be made
to determine what type of pollen is
to be, used in the inoculation of
certain persons.

as I do, that throat

greater pleasure are
found only in Lucky
Strikes.”

Edward Johnson, Celebrated Tenor
Why he recommends smoking Lucky Strike
— because "It’s Toasted”
EDWARD JOHNSON, the famous tenor of the Met
ropolitan Opera Company of New York City,
owes much of his fame to the ever - dependable
quality of his voice.
When smoking, he prefers Lucky Strikes because
they give the greatest enjoyment and throat protection.
Lucky Strikes are smooth and mellow—the finest
cigarettes you ever smoked. They are made of the
finest Turkish and domestic tobaccos, properly aged
and blended with great skill, and there is an extra
process in treating the tobacco.
Smoke Lucky Strikes—you’ll like
them.

ally invited to see how Lucky Strikes
are made at our exhibit, comer
