First Rehearsal to be Held in Old College at 4 O clock Tomorrow
Plans are now well under wav for the formation of an orchestra which is to represent U. S. C. and tour the country this summer. First practice is io begin tomorrow, according to an ;:nnoun< ement made by Irving Abraham son. Dental student, and well known orchestra leader, who has consented to direct ihe musicians.
'The students of the University Lave made a remarkable showing in the tryouts,” st ted Abrahamson. “1 wish all ihose who have tried out to show up with their instruments for the first rehearsal at 4 p. m. on Wednesday. March 11*, in the old chapel. The summer season is rapidly approaching and consequently rehearsals must begin as soon as possible end must be taken seriously from the start.
Abrahamson has seven orchestras under his direction as has a well known reputation in his field. He is willing to appropriate his time to supervise rehearsals personally, providing that a worthy organization will be formed. Should the orchestras go over as it is planned, the members of the orchestra will receive a salary of not less than seventy-five dollars a week throughout a stipulated contract -this summer.
The object of this organization is to inaugurate a way whereby the University may be advertised in a high class manner. After several plans were submitted and discussed by prominent students of the University, a plan was hit upon to have Irving Abrahamson organize an orchestra similar to “Waring’s Penney! vanians.” to tour the country during the summer months under the name of “U. S. C. Collegians.”
Waring's Pennsylvanians appeared in the Ij^ist during the summer of 1922. making a ten-week engagement at the Chicago and Tivoli Theatres there.
This plan of forming a nn*ver»ity orchestra was decided upon as being the most satisfactory one to advertise the University and to solicit prospective students to enter and attend this institution, and to further in the „goal toward making this University the greatest in the country.
Further plans for the orchestra are now under consideration and will be annouiuel later, following a confer, ence between Dr. Gilliland and Mr. Abrahamson this morning.
Snappy music, a well trained male chorus and old time clog dancing will be some of the high lights in the big i I>enial minstrel show which is to be in Bovard Aud*;oi:^:n on the night of April 4. This is an annual event and j u.-jalL proves to be one of the bert Women Appear at Temple Bap-thow-5 of the campus ye.r.

Trojan Hopes Dashed Again; Clarke Commits Matrimony
ALL-0. PROGRESSIVE TO BE STRICTLY ML
The seventeenth of Ireland with many verdant colors hit the Trojan campus yesterday but a decidedly blue feeling permeated the air about the tiaining quarters when it was learned that Thurmond Clarke, Varsity quar-ter-miler and one of Coach Cromwell’s prem;er athletes, had committed matrimony.
Clarke’s absence from the rank of splinters at the Pomona-U. S. C. dual meet at the Coliseum on Saturday, is accounted for by the fact that Miss Frances Corbett, pretty co-ed from the University of Stanford, invaded i os Angeles the latter pan of last week, . nd the Rev. R. Miller threw r matrimonial bowline arbund the pair Friday night at the St. James Episcopal Church,
Coach Dean Cromwell has not given up hope of making the Trojan athlete into one of U.. S. C.’s stellar performers in the quarter-mile run. It is understood tb~t the bride will return to the northern campus to complete her studies while young Clarke who is he son of Judge ard Mrs. Robert M. Clarke will continue to his law study at U. S. C. The marriage is said to have been a complete surprise to lo; al friends and relatives of Thurmond Clarke.
Ewenty-Eighth Street is to be Scene of Joyous Festivities Next Thursday

Bi-Monthly Hikes Are Planned for Students
Nine men from the University Y. M. C. A. thought the weather was too hot here, so they hiked up Mt. Wilson, Saturday. Leaving here at six in the morning they motored to the foot of the mountain and from there, they hiked to the summit, where they dined in the conservatory, frolicked in the snow and had a good time in general.
This was one of the series of hikes which will take place about every two weeks. All University men are invited to take part in

Vaudeville Acts to be Feature of Event With Different Orchestra at Each House
Twenty-eighth street will be a scene of joyous revelry Thursday night, when the first all-University progressive dance and entertainment is held at five of the fraternity and sorority houses, namely, the houses of Pi Phi, Delta Gamma, Alpha Chi, Lambda Psi and Phi Alpha. Closely following the gigantic “Hello” spirit program which was inaugurated by the Wampus Bachelors the second week of this semester the all-University progressive is an entertainment and dance for all non-organization and fraternal men and women. “The name all-University signifies,” says Evelyn Smith, chairman of the committee in charge, who is to attend every person on the campus is invited and urged to come. “We know there are many students who have never been to a University affair and the purpose of this progressive dance is to bring out these people and showr them what a good time can be had «t U. S. C. parties. For those who do not dance—an entertainment has been arranged.” These are the facts given out by the committee in charge, headed by Evelyn Smith and composed of Peggy Moore. Elizabeth Sewell and Lloyd Hershberger.
Ten vaudeville acts have been planned for the dance. Two of these will be given at each house. It has not been decided yet as to whether the acts or spectators should move from house to house, but preference is in favor of the acts moving. These stunts are to be staged every hour beginning promptly at 7:30.
“The vital necessity of each stu. dent bringing his student-body card is to be emphasized,” says the committee. “Absolutely no one will be admitted without a card. In passing from house to house tags will be given and no loop-hole for outsiders to slip through will be left. Only bona fide Trojans are invited. No fee will be charged and the only possible way for the wary to spend money is by having some fair damsel become thirsty on their hands. For punch five cents a glass is the tax.”
Through the efforts of the committee Gene Johnson is furnishing five separate orchestras—one at each house—gratis. These, with the help of the vaudeville stunts, wilLkeep the people attending from washing for home. Not too great a stress can be put on the words “Informal.” School clothes are the thing.
At the respective houses Buck Oudermeulen, Les Heineman, Okey King, Hal Williamson. Trent Hu's, will act as “Dads,” keeping things going inside and keeping the red and amber fluid out. Be on twenty-eight street early Thursday night in your school clothes and the idea in mind to have the best time ever.

'“So far only sixteen girls have signed up,” says Miss Kemp. ' That is far fewer than we had last year, and as the largest University in the district it is important that we have a large representation. We plan to leave the Women’s Hall in time to make the 4 o'clock train from the Pacific Electric station Entertainment will be provided by tbe girls at the Santa Ana Junior College but in order to insure sufficient accommodations we must know right away exactly how many plan to go.

LAIfCE AND LUTE Cl "SHOW SHOP” APRIL 3
Dramatic Fraternity to Re-Present Comedy at Assembly Period
CAST IS EXPERIENCED
Date of Production for Students
Changed Because of Chapel Improvements
That the “Show Shop" to be re presented by the School of Speech in Chapel, April 3. has the best cast, froai the standpoint of experience of any play that has been ssembled around the campus for a long time, was the statement of Miss Mildred Voorhees. who is in charge of the directing.
“The Show Shop," written by James Forbes, well known playwright, has been chosen because of its comedy possibilities. It is beiieved that it will have a strong appeal for the students. The comedy was presented this year by the Lance and Lute and is to be given in chapel to raise funds for stage equipment.
The play is plotted “back stage" and combining a play within a play, gives intimate touches in the lives of the class connected with the stage. Its unusualness of subject combined with the keenness of the comedy has made The Show Shop in great demand among theatrical producers.
With an all star cast the production on April 3 promises to be one of the most entertaining of the year. The same cast which played in “The Show Shop” when it was presented by the Lance and Lute has been retained. A I tha members have had considerable experience in campus productions.
The role of Jerome Beldon, bhe young millionaire son. is taken by Howard Bridegroom of Extravaganza fame. He also played in “You Never Can Tell,” which was presented by the Junior Class of 1922.
Bettina Dean, the theatrical star, which is the role opposite to that of Howard Bridegroom, is played by Bonnie Palmer. Miss Palmer comes to U. S. C. from Cumnock where she took part in many performances there. Her first campus work was last year in “Polly With a. Past.”
Ruth Seaver is cast in the comedy lead, the mother. Mrs. Dean. Miss Seaver is well known for her dramatic ability having played in “Polly With a Past” and "The Great Divide” beside directly the dramatic work in the Extr:vaganza.
The Jewish theatrical producer. Max Rosenbaum, is played bv Solly Seamons. This is a comedy part of special interest. Solly Seamons took the l.art of the young doctor in “The (CONTINUED OX PA<;E TWO)

The Cherniavsky Trio presented by the U. S. C. omen’s Club, appeared before a very enthusiastic audience in the Bovard Auditorium last Thursday night. The concert was one of a series of excellent numbers booked by the Woman's Club for the benefit of the new building for women.
The crowd was not so large as that which attended the "Book of Job,” a previous presentation, at which time the house wras packed. The auditorium was filled only about one fourth to its capacity, but if the audience was lacking somewhat in numbers, it was not in appreciation. The artists were encored asain and asain. and they responded j generously. Gounod’s ‘Ave Maria”
