Seats Plentiful For Songfest
Ticket chairman Bob Johnson said yesterday that “too many persons who would like to go to Songfest are not buying tickets because they feel there are no good seats left.” He said thal although it is true that many of the Bowl’s many, many boxes have been sold out for sometime, good seats are still available and plentiful.
“Songfest for 1957 promises to be the biggest student show in SC history,” he said, “and nobody should miss it-”
Tickets are available In the SO Ticket Office at SI.50 anil SI, and will also be sold the night of the show in the Hollywood Bowl ticket office.
No Cameras, Says Kezas
Photography chairman George Kezas announced to the DT today that “no cameras of any type” will be allowed in the audience at Songfest.
The reasoning behind this restrictive order, said Kezas, is that last year’s show was continually married by the seemingly constant flashing of flash bulbs, annoying to both audience and performers.
"Only the official Songfest photographer, Don Erckel, and the El Rodeo photographer, will be allowed to enter the Bowl area with a carera,” said Kezas.
He said that “even the El Rod photographer won’t be using flash bulbs.” Anyone wishing to purchase a picture or pictures of the show may do so after the performance in Harry Nelson s office, beginning Mondav.
Dress Rehearsal Set for Tonight
A relaxed audience coupled with the hubub and tense excitement of 850 participants will provide a contrast for the annual Songfest to be held in the Hollywood Bowl tomorrow at 8 p.m. Eight famous musicians are scheduled to act as judges.	.

Bacteriologist Cites . Food Packing Evils
“Scorched feather-flavored Indian rubber is the taste often produced by thermal treatment of food,” Food Bacteriologist Dr. D. A. A. Mossel said in a speech this week. His subject was “Problems Involved in the Feeding of the Military Troops of the Netherlands.”

“The thing that burned me up most,” Obluck said, “was that whoever issued these scurilous notes implied that we weren't | using SC talent on Vulture. It vvas hinted that one of our most s prolific and degenerate people, Bill Lachs, isn’t enrolled at the university.

The memo also said that Lachs has been subpoenaed for the grand jury investigations into Confidential Magazine.

A BIT OF OLD ENGLAND—That's what
these robust gentlemen will be singing about when they present their "There'll Always Be an England” number in tomorrow night's fourth annual Songfest at the Hollywood Bowl. Singing (and hamming)
it up are (l-r) George Kezas, Tom Santley, John Feassel, Bob Tarlton and John Hogan, all members of Kappa Alpha fraternity. Accompanying the lively group as they warm up is Songfest co-chairman Sherri Green. They'll sing in the Novelty division.
