Dr. Vivian To Lecture On Electro-Chemistry C Rehearsal Reveals Play s Merit By James Burg A new high in burlesque tragedy! "Bombastes Furioso.” the musicai play that has its premiere tonight at 8:30 in Bovard auditorium is definitely an achievement if last night's dress rehearsal can be used as a criterion. Every member of the company last night showed great comic ability in portraying their roles as they would have been acted in the English theater during the lusty, slap-stick period of the Napoleonic wars. “Bombastes Furioso.” written by Prof. Pauline Alderman, is being presented by the U.S.C. Music alumni for the benefit of the Walter F. Skeele Memorial Scholarship fund. AUDIENCE ENJOYS REHEARSAL There was an almost constant titter from the audience; as the king made funny faces and danced ludi-rous dances; the portly minister gaily skipped along, loosing his sense of dignity as probably no other minister ever has: and General Bombastes’ tipsy ostrich feather wavered back and forth over his hat as he stomped into the king’s audience chamber with his army of assorted sizes. Distafina. portrayed by Virginia Loofbourow. was especially funny as she mimicked the ppses used so often in the love scenes of so many serious tragic operas. Her love duet with the king was a masterpiece of slap-stick. LYRICS ARE BEAUTIFUL Lyrics were really beautiful, and the general trend of the musci at times roared and rumbled in the most pompous of tragic opera style. No one could have guessed, as the minister and Gen. Bombastes Furioso snarled and whooped at each other, that they were arguing orer the respective merits rtf long-cut and short-cut tobacco. The whole opera is a roaring, lusty farce, combined with good music, good acting, and good scenery. AMOS PLAYS ARTAXONAMOUS The character in order of their appearance are: King Artaxonamous. Amet Amos; Four Footmen, tha university quartet; Fusbos, minister of state. Thomas Glyim; General Dm bastes Furioso. Russell Horton: e Army. Soldiers of assorted sizes, and Distafina, Virginia Loofbourow. Act 1 takes place in the king's palace, the moming after; act two in Distafina's cottage, the same day: and the third act in a gloomy wood, that night.

HOUSE LEADER OPPOSES
No announcement of the President's views on neutrality and efforts to lift the embargo against shipment of arms and munitions to Spain was made after the conference, but house majority leader Sam Rayburn, D., Texas., emphatically opposed “monkeying with the neutrality law at this time.”
Later, Chairman Sam McRey-nolds, D., Tenn., of the house foreign affairs committee, stated flatly that the neutrality law “won’t be repealed.”
“I haven’t seen the President about it..” McReynolds said, “but \ in my opinion he won’t ask for its I repeal.”
