Season Tickets (Continued from page one) and a popular musical play- or musical comedy spring term. Three other productions during the year will complete the season. Season ticket holders get-first chance at reserving seats for the theater plays under the priority system started last year. The low er a ticket holder’s priority num ber, the better chance he has of his choice of seats. Set Records Last Year Last year, in its new theater, seating 401, the University Thea ter presented two of the most popular productions ever shown on the campus. The hilarious com edy ,“The Warrior’s Husband,” was sold out every night of its regular run, and was held over two days to handle the demand. The final production of the 1949 50 season, “The Girl I Left Be hind,” ranked close behind “The Warrior” for popularity. Other productions last year were Maxwell Anderson’s “Winter set,” Ardrey’s “Thunder Rock,” and von Flotow’s opera, “Martha.” Anticipating productions equal ly as good as those of last year, with the same audience demand, University Theater Director Hor ace W. Robinson confirmed the fact that season tickets may be the only sure way of seeing all productions this year. Dance Trio's Leader Captivates Audience By Don Smith Elena Imaz was the whole show,. or almost the whole show, Sat urday night when the Interna tional Dance Trio presented an entertaining program in the Uni versity Theater. Miss Imaz captivated her audi ence with her tantalizing Span ish rhythms, and added her en gaging talent as a mimic to her last few numbers to win complete ly the admiration of the 300 per sons at the performance. The diminutive five-foot one inch dancer was ably supported by Wayne Lamb. Miss McKenzie Absent The trio had a bit of bad luck in the absence of Iona McKenzie, who was replaced Saturday night by Jacquanette Kunzman, a Lewis & Clark college freshman. Miss McKenzie suffered an appendici tis attack and was unable to con tinue the tour with the troupe. This necessitated the substitute dancer, and made it necessary for the trio to change the dance pro gram. Undoubtedly the dances in whieh Miss McKenzie was scheduled to appear with other members of the troupe were delightful; but it was of course impossible to have Miss Kunzman learn the dances on such short notice. In her two solos Miss Kunzman was somewhat stiff; but she seemed to get the feel of the dance in her final number with Miss Imaz and Lamb, “Brazilian Market Scene.” Favorite Number “Dance of the Old Men,” done by Miss Imaz and Lamb, was the favorite number of the evening, judged by audience reaction. It was a delightful farce that drew laughs and cheers from the audi ence. Her ability as a mime was best shown by Miss Imaz in her “Ser vant Girl” number. This ' comic li dance was the most popular solo performance of the evening, and the tiny Argentine was called back again and again by the audi ence for bows. Skilled as A Dancer While these numbers were ex tremely popular, no one would deny the remarkable ability of the Spanish dancer in her boleros, tangos, and jotas. Her skill in the use of the castanets brought forth beautiful rhythm to match the tapping of her feet. A variation of the classical Spanish dances was a Moorish slave girl number in which tiny finger “cymbals” replaced the castanets. This production was the first professional entertainment spon sored by the University Theater, with reduced prices for season ticket holders. Two heads are better than one —English Proverb.

Vagner Revives Prep Band Day The man responsible for the massed demonstration of the 21 high school bands at the Oregon Montana football game, Oct. 7, is Robert Vagner, new University band director, who staged the re vival of the Band Day, not held since before the war. Vagner, a former member of the Denver Symphony Orchestra is presently engaged in organizing a University concert band. . An immediate problem, Vagner says, is securing more women, and build ing up the woodwind section of the band. Vagner reports that there will be a good concert band which will not belong entirely to the music school. It is an all-University func 1 tion and needs musicians from the entire school such as is found in the varsity band. At present there are only 16 women, in comparison to the 90 men in the regular band. Vagner has taught at Iowa's Grinnel College, Adrian High School in Michigan, and has at tended the Universities of Colo rado and Michigan.
