The many holidays in the month of February are being fea tured in this issue of the Wampus, campus humor magazine to appear some time this week. There have been several new contributors for this month’s magazine who have done excellent work on both the art and feature staffs.
A fantasy entitled “Spring Breezes” has been written for this number by the ex-editor of the magazine, Bryant Hale. This story has all the humor and all of the fantastic allusions that a man has about spring, its mejinlng, and its true nature.
OLD STAND-BY
The old stand-by Aggie Zilch has again contributed to the maga zine. This time his story is entitled “On Slander’s Fields.” Accompanying the article is an unusual portrait or the author. Inasmuch as there has been a great deal of interest as to the identity of the author, it will probably prove of interest to many to see this portrait.
Another of the features of the book which may prove of interest to those who look for it, is "Desire Under the Elms.” ‘‘Water,J" the author of which is unknown, has nothing to do with either fire or fire-water.
NEW ARTIST
"The Professor Steps Out” by Louise Van de Verg, has been illustrated by a new artist on the staff, Louise Thompson. This story has to do with all of the little and mighty indescretions of a professor.

Mayfair Club Band Of Earl Burtnett To Play At Formal.
MANY CO-EDS ARE PLEDGED TO SORORITIES
Pledging Culminates Annual Rush Week For Second Semester.
Music for the Interfraternity formal, which is scheduled for March 21, will be furnished by Earl Burtnett’s Mayfair club orchestra, according to an announcement made yesterday by Lewis Gough, chairman of the dance committee. The acquisition of this popular orchestra was made possible through the work of the orchestra committee, headed by Willis Hirsch and supported by Ted Halfhill.
The Mayfair club orchestra was organized by Earl Burtnett, and for the past three years has played for the exclusive Mayfair club in Hollywood. This club is composed of the elite of the film colony, and boasts as members the most outstanding moving picture stars, directors, and writers in Southern California. The increasing popularity of this organization is shown by the fact that it has furnished entertainment for a great number of exclusive private affairs throughout this part of the country.
While this orchestra is not under the* personal direction of Earl Burtnett himself, it is, nevertheless, a great attraction, and the members of the committee feel extremely fortunate in being able to afford the guests the opportunity of dancing to the “music of the stars.”
As was stated in a previous announcement, the Fiesta room of the Los Angeles Ambassador hotel has been obtained for the event. The room is now being remodeled with new draperies and lighting effects, and its great capacity of 2,000 couples will afford an excellent place for the dance.
This year the professional fraternities have joined with the social organizations in backing the affair and separate ticket committees have been arranged to accommodate the professional houses.
Employment Bureau Interviews Seniors
All seniors who expect to graduate in June and intend to go into some kind of work after graduation, should go to the Bureau of Employment and obtain an interview concerning their future Vocation.
This, of course, does not apply to those who are cumeiii plating pG3t graduate work. The interview' is very important and should be attended to as soon as possible. The earlier the better, for the last minute rush can be avoided and the bureau will be able to render better service.
