April 25 — <U.» — Great Britain today warned Soviet Russia against acts “detrimental” to Anglo-Russian relations in a protest over the secret arrests of British subjects on espionage charges. The protest, presented to Foreign Commissar Maxim Litvinoff by British Ambassador Viscount Chilston, particularly concerned the arrest of Rose Cohen, a former British Communist, under circumstances similar to the “Robinson” case involving an American woman Ruth Marie Rubens. Like Mrs. Rubens, the British woman was held in prison for some time before Russian authorities admitted her arrest.

Nijinsky, the great dancer, was choreographer for the first performance of the work. When first given, the ballet caused a storm of protest from the conservatives of Paris. The bold orchestration, the violence of the disson ances, and the primitive subject matter raised the turmoil. After 25 years, however, the "Rites of Spring” has assumed its place in the con cert repertoire as a vigorous theatrical work. written in ink on one side of the paper.

By The Inquiring Reporter "I'm as unhappy as a nudist in a hail storm,” Jack Warner boldly told reporters at a press conference last night when he was asked to spread a word or two of enlightening comment on the April Wampus which, it is rumored, will ‘oe on sale tomorrow. “Certainly the Wampus will be excruciatingly funny.” he modestly said, “that's just the trouble. The students of U.S.C. have been so used to ’unfunny’ Wampuses, lo. these many years, that I'm afraid they will lose their faith in mankind, if this one is as funny as I say.” LOOK FOR YOURSELF “On second thought,” Warner reconsidered. “I think I shall call the printer and ask him to tear out a few pages from the Wampus to tone it down a bit. so to speak. I don’t want professors complaining that students stayed awake in classes merely to read their Wampus.” Warner then handed each of the gentlemen present a copy of the April Wampus, telling them to look and see for themselves. The gentlemen looked. They saw. They were conquered. In a body they shouted. “Warner, you are right. You should tear out a few pages—it's more than we can stand.” Warner wondered what they meant. "After the magazine appears,” the fearless editor continued, unperturb ed by the rabid heckling of the press, “I won't be able to print another word about sororities, for my “Rate Your Sorority Chart” will tell all there is to tell.” LEAVES FOR MOSCOW Warner stopped ln the midst of his oration as the phone rang waking the gentlemen of the press who by this time were snoring soundly. He spoke into the mouthpiece for a short while, then slamming the receiver down he grabbed his suitcase and said, “Gentlemen, the sororities are after me for telling all I know about their houses. If anyone wants me, tell them to write in care of Snow White.” With these words he ran down the hallway. It is believed, he left on the Lusitania bound for Moscow. When Warner left, the reporters picked up the few copies of the April Wampus he left, and agreed that it was all that Warner claimed it was. They too grabbed their suitcases and ran down the stairway. When asked if they were bound for Moscow, the gentlemen stated that they were heading for sorority row “to see if it was true what they said about Troy.” Your Inquiring Reporter followed! von KleinSmid was chosen as chairman because of his previous activity in peace promotion. WEDNESDAY IS PEACE DAY The assembly, which was originally scheduled for Wednesday, will be held today because of the inability of the chairman to be present the following day. The day originally chosen is observed as Peace day on college campuses throughout the United States, The program planned is divided into two parts. The first part is the presentation of their views by the speakers. This section is divided into a period to allow 5-minute speeches by each of the three representatives from the Peace Union, and another for a 5-minute rejoinder which will be allowed each person after the original views have been expressed. PROGRAM IS DIVIDED During the second portion of the program the assembly will develop into an open forum. Members of the audience will be allowed to take the floor and express their views on the subject. Members of the Peace Union who have been chosen to express their points of view in the assembly are Maurice Atkinson on collective security. Margaret Blankenship on collective sacrifice, and John Golay on neutrality. The Peace Union will hold a meeting tonight at 7:30 in the University Methodist church. Officers who were selected by the nominating committee will be voted upon. Dr. Austin Is Awarded Italian Medal Dr. Herbert Austin, the head oi the Italian department at U.S.C., has just been awarded the Gold Medal of Merit of Italy by King Victor Emanuel for “the diffusion of Italian art and culture abroad.” The medal was presented to Dr. Austin by the Italian ambassador at Washington, and the vice-consul at Los Angeles, Duke Roberts di Car-acciolo. Dr. Austin has had published about 40 articles dealing with the Italian language and literature, of which 30 deal with Dante and hia works. He has also written a number of reviews of works relating to Italian culture. In June and July of 1981 Dr. Austin gave a series of six lectures at the University of Rome, on “Di alcune metafore controverse nell opera di Dante” (On some debatable metaphors in Dante’s work”).
