'King Arthur' Set -For Choral Union “King Arthur,” opera in five acts, will be presented by the choral union as its concert on the Greater Artist series March 1, according to Dr. Theodore Kratt, dean of the school of mu sic. The music for the opera was composed by Henry Purcell. The text is by John Dryden. The work will be presented in concert form. Engraved plates were shipped especially from England and printed in this country. John Dryden published the op era first in 1691. Of this per formance he wrote, “There is jiothing better than what I in jnded but the music . . . especial ly passing through the artful hands of Mr. Purcell, who com posed it with so great a genius that he has nothing to fear but an ignorant, ill-judging audience.” The music was never published in Purcell’s lifetime, and conse quently much of it was lost. The present version is probably the most complete yet published. Hobby's Hoop Five (Continued, from page four) die.

Others certain to be called in to duty include Walt Reynolds, Sammy Crowell, Arvid Suther land, A1 Popick, Roy Seeborg and ^ill Bloomquist. Between the Lines (Continued from page tzco) nals. So he sent, not one, but two (2) telegrams before he reached his party and negotia tions could be effected. Still at Large Professor Wright tells about a group of students who are so conscientious about taking class notes that when he comes in and says “Good morning” to the class a few pencils take down the mes sage. Still at large is the gent who, after we had told him yes terday in libe at 3 to wake us up at 4, woke us up at 3:45 and told us we still had 15 minutes to sleep. • “Unofficial” John Ward has OTtlined a plan whereby male stu dents may remain in reserves and’ not flunk out of school. He calls upon the patriotic coopera tion of the female portion of the University. Ward’s Plan If women get below a 2-point they may still remain in school, he reasons, but if men get be low a 2-point they will be jerked into active service. It seems only fair then, he argues, that the girls purposely keep down their GPA in order to keep the aver age down and thus insure the men of getting an above-aver K! grade count. Get the point— 2-point ? In order to discourage trips homeward and hence ease the transportation problem of a na tion at war, classes have been Thanksgiving Banquet Honors Tri Delta Birth Delta Delta Delta is holding its annual Founder’s day banquet tonight, honoring the Thangsgiv ing eve founding of Tri-Delt 54 years ago in 1888 by Sarah Ida Shaw Martin and Eleanor Dorcas Pond, in Boston, Massachusetts.
