Russo Praises Student Talent In Squire Show
“This is the greatest collection of student talent that I have seen while at SC.” commented Bob Russo, who is in charge of the Squire talent show that will be presented to the student body on Friday night, Mar. 12.
Russo and his committee already have selected the cast of the show. Rehearsals begin Monday.

Balloting will begin Monday, with ballot boxes being located at the Community Chest stands.
Here is today's clue: “Black, red, and blue are his claim, but it was the color green that brought him fame.”

First Pacific coast performance of three symphonic compositions will feature the SC band’s presentation of its annual spring concert tonight at 8:30 in Bovard auditorium.

Mr. Sawhill borrowed these compositions from Alfred A. Harding, director of bands at the University of Illinois.
LAZAR, HUNTER
Sidney Lazar, trumpet, and Robert Hunter, piano, occupy the solo spots. Lazar, a music education major, has played several times in both the Philharmonic auditorium and the Hollywood bowl. Hunter, also a music major, has played professionally throughout Los Angeles.
Tonight’s concert begins with a march from Op. 99 by Serge Prok-cfieff, followed by the symphonic composition of Khrennikoff, the second movement of Op. 4. Lester Schroeder, a member of the band staff, arranged the next piece from the piano score of Willi Brandt’s Op. 124, into a concerto for trumpet. Lazar will make his solo contribution with this arrangement. .

Flynn rose to the bait, thanking IFC on behalf of Aeneas residents.
“Now,” he added, “Aeneas will come down and clean up 28th street.” His remark brought laughter from the assemblage and the lemark. “This is the era of good feeling” from Milt Dobkin.
In another sharp attack on the Student Union committee, Flynn asked by what right changes, such as the newly-added YMCA and varsity show offices, had been made in the union’s office space.

Sweethearts Reduced to 10 In Sig Contest
Moonlight beams shone brightly on 10 eligible? for the Sweetheart of Sigma Chi as five more women were eliminated from the contest following the fraternity’s second selection dinner last night.

Seated at the head table as honored guest last night were Helen Hall Moreland, dean of women; Dr. Neil D. Warren, dean of men; and Dr. Albert F. Zech, assistant dean of men.
FINALS NEAR

Announcement of the fraternity’s choice will be made at their annual Sweetheart dance Saturday night in the Palm room of the Miramar hotel in Santa Monica.
Blue and old gold book matches, bearing the words “She’s A Sweetheart,” have been distributed to all the sororities and residence halls as an added favor of Sigma Chi.
