Faculty Dancers May Entertain At Revels Dec. 12 Dean Schwering Grant? 12:15 Permission. Faculty and Student? To Receive Gifts • A rumor that the hitherto un publicized professor’s dancing chor us will make its first 1936 campus appearance at the Christmas Rev els Is being sent over the campus grapevine. The rumor also say: that Mrs. Fayo Knox, interpretive dancing instructor, is directing the chorus. The rumor is neither con firmed nor denied by Christmas Revels chairmen, Delores Lawes and Harry Hodes. The Christmas Revels, which will be held Saturday, December 12, is a traditional all-campus in formal no-date affair and Dean Hazel P. Schwering has granted 12:1.1 permission for that night. If present plans are completed, the stage of Gerlinger hall will be transformed into a huge fireplace down the chimney of which Santa Claus may come. Instead of plac ing the orchestra on the stage as has been done previously, this year the stage is being decorated for the vaudeville acts. The entire hall will be decorated in the traditional Christmas fash ion with fir boughs, holly, mistle toe and Christmas trees. During the intermission Santa Claus will give appropriate gifts to prominent faculty and student body members. Neither the iden tity of Santa Claus nor the receiv ers of the gifts will be revealed until the night of the Revels. The dance program will be var ied with short vaudeville acts, two of which will be surprise numbers. Probably the identity of the orig inators of the acts or the actors will never be known. The Tri Delt trio, Glenn Grif fith’s carolers, and Hal Young will supply the musical vaudeville num bers. George Hopkins, professor of piano, will appears as a magician, and Lance Hart, assistant profes sor of drawing and art, will give a take-off on W. C. Fields. The balcony will be opened to spectators who will pay the regu lar charge of 25 cents.

University Theatre PRESENTS “Goodbye Again” Saturday and Tuesday, Dec. 5 and 8 8 F.M. GUILD THEATRE 3 ADMIN is TRATION BUILDING Phone 3300-216 Note There are approximately 10 available seats'*for the Friday night1’ dr&ss performance. of the Gregorian series. They are of great historical interest because of the way in which they differ from modern music manuscripts. Their type of notation marks a transition between the Neume sys tem of the earlier centuries and the modern method. They are written in medieval script, which makes translation difficult. They are unique in that the music is written principally for the text of tlie songs, which dwell for the most part on religious subjects. The manuscripts contain the old five-line staff, with no measures. The ^notation is of the old and triple system rather than the mo dern duple method, a fact which leads back to the idea of the Trin ity which the monks carried out in all their music. The 10th century manuscripts contain no measures, but Mr. Artau also possesses a manuscript of the 17th century on which the first vague tendencies toward measurement can be noted. These manuscripts are taken j from old volumes of music which I can be found1 only in the shops of | collectors and in cathedrals and j monastaries. They are part of a collection which Mr. Artau is start ! ing. There is a psssibility that he I will gain possession of a manu script written in 1326 which con tains the old Neume notation. Mr. Artau also hopes to start a collection of old musical instru ments. Next term he will loan to the University a rare old key board instrument which he plans to bring from the east.
