BEER S FLAT
WALTZ OF THE TOREADORS' Gets Likkered Up STARTS SLOW, FINISHES FAST
BrewmasterKarabian
Chief brewmaster Wally Karabian, ASSC presidential hopeiul.	said	today	that	he had	“just about	had it” over
the	way	the	ASSC	Senate has	handled the	entire beer-
sales-on-campus motion.
He said that he was particularly disturbed over the
Senate’s vote on his proposed “brer" amendment.
Junior Class President Kara-bian’s amendment to the “beer" motion called for the entire beer (juestion to be put on the corn-ill?	spring election	ballot so that
the	slunent body	could express
its opinion.
His Amendment "My amendment would have been the only way to test student opinion.” he said, "and it would have given the administration confidence that the entire student body—not .just 35 senators—were backing this motion.”
The proposed amendment was defeated 12-9 which Karabian j said was a surprise because no senator spoke against it.
The only reason the amendment didn't pass, said Karabian, was that Fitz Randolph spoke "against“ it.
Senate Warning “Scott tFitz Randolph),” Karabian added, “didn't exactly speak against it but he dramatically warned the Senate of the seriousness of placing it on the ballot.”
"He literally ‘scared’ the Senate.” he said.
Karabian said lhat his amendment would have had many purposes behind it.
"It would be the only effective way of polling student opin-1 ion.“ he said. "It would also give the Senate a basis to work on and stop this conflict of ‘yes the students want it, no they don't’ tvpe of argument.”
Coming .Motion "Besides giving the admini- ! stration full confidence that the siudents were also behind this j senatorial project.” he said, "it i would give added importance ' and publicity to the motion.” Karabian said that the second suggestion asking Fitz Randolph 1o find out administration reaction toward the project is “good, but an amendment would have Deen considerably better.’’
Flop Project If the administration gives a negative reaction.” he warned, “the entire project will probably be dropped because the Senate wou’d just be wasting its time.” "If the administration gives an affirmative answer,” he continued "then some constructive senatorial action will be needed.” Dead Beer At the last Senate meeting, a motion to form a long - lasting beer investigating committee was tabled. Karabian said that no committee is functioning at the present time.
Mike Thomson, chairman of the now defunct "beer busting” committee, said “My report was tabled and our committee dropped at the last meeting.

Kimbrell Shows Superb Acting In Outstanding Bedroom Scene
By SUSAN LECKY
Beginning with a slow tw^o-step. "The Waltz of the Toreadors” picked up speed as it climaxed in a bedroom scene superbly acted by Lois Kimbrell in the opening performance last night in Bovard Auditorium to a small audience.
Miss Kimbrell, playing Madam St. Pe, gave the most professional performance of any of the actors appearing in the play. She was nagging, she was powerful, she was haunting, she was believeable. It was a strong performance which should be re-
membered by college players as an ideal to live up to. She picked the play up to sparkling
heights.
Henry Kemp-Blair, as Dr. Bon-fant. illustrated his vast experience by the outstanding way he carried his part. His facial expressions were magnificant. The part of Dr. Bonfant calls for many long listening periods which demand realistic reactions to what is being said. Kemp-Blair portrayed the maturity of a doctor called on for advice as if he were a real doctor.

Of special significance on the senatorial legislative slate is Fong's student tutorial service. He is drafting a special project which will be announced at the next Senate meeting.
“There is a definite need for tutors on campus,’’ he said “and j there are some students who want to be tutors but have no place to go.”

Fong planned to use the Daily Trojan to advertise for tutors and he said that he would definitely have a plan for senatorial action at the next meeting following Easter Vacation.

The ASSC Senate also recommended. throueh Senator Alii j Lockwood’s motion, that it should be a continuing precedent of no classes or tests during the pre-examination break but that the libraries remain open.
I St. Pe, is good but seemed a little static at times. He projected well, giving he air of a professional soldier and lover. At times the humor of his lines was lost, particularly in a scene with the secretary when he is explaining honor. The visual image he makes is very effective.
Secretary Is Naive The secretary to the general, Gaston, played by Ed Mastin is hilariously naive in his part. Tall and prim, he portrays a young man. brought up properly by priest, who has reached the age of 20 without doing anything more than reading the classics and writing the general's memoirs. His reaction, facial and actual. to the general's advice to live life fully and not to wait, are like a little boy's first ‘ go’ signal to a much wanted thing — wonderful. He is a good actor creating for SC a funny role.
Mme. Dupont-Fredaine. the dressmaker, is played by Dolores Castillo. She is a little too flighty and giggly at times, bur when she doesn't overact she is very funny and brings life to what could have been a dull scene.
Acting Was Fair The rest of the acting was fair. Nina Shaw as Mile, de St.-Euverte was cold in acting the part of a warm woman full of unrequited love. Her voice was shrill and choppy and it made her lines uninteresting and removed the humor.
Kitty Farren seemed bored with her part of Sidonia. one of the general's ugly daugnters. She brought forth some wild laughter from the audience with her slapstick acting in a fight between , the two daughters when her dress was torn off. however, she over acted to the point of being ridiculous.
Carolyn Matson as the other daughter. Estelle, was much better in portraying the desires of an unwanted, ugly girl.
Two Maids Fair The two. Miss Farren and Miss Matson, through slap-stick comedy provide some humorous scenes, but they range too far from the sophisticated comedy.
Bob Biheller as Father Ambrose wasn't too effective as the intoxicated priest full of joyful new\*.
The two maids. Ellen Elliott and Ar.n de Rubertis were fair as maids. Miss de Rubertis. in her small part, projected a iove-lv and warm voice which could have been used to greater advantage.
Dick Anderson as costume designer did a great job. The costumes were beautiful as exemplified by Mile, de St.-Euverte’s —a lovely creation except for the short sleeves. The hats were marvelous. The daughters’ costumes great heightened their ridiculous appearance.
Everyone Soaked, No Injuries in Row Riot
CAUGHT ON THI RUN-A Daily Trojan photographer was chased by a mob of fraternity members as she took this photo in front of the Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority house last night. The water fight was started by numerous fraternity mem-
bers and raged up and down the Row for nearly two hours as students had fun while cooling off from yesterday's heat.
Bv trickery, the photographer was able to save the film, but the photo was badly out of focus from being taken running. (
A metropolitan newspaper photographer had his camera smashed, a sorority housemother was slugged in the jaw, and in-numberable persons were soaked in a two hour water riot on the Row last night.
The student riot started when members of Kappa Alpha Fraternity dragged Alpha Phi Bob-bi Paioumares from her sorority < house and doused her with water about 6:15 p.m. Other houses immediately joined in the fun and the group proceeded down 28th St. where they set fire to a palm tree, but the fire was quickly extiguished. Mobs raged down the Row from Uni- 1 versity Ave. to Figueroa St.
An Examiner photographer had his camera smashed and glasses broken when he tried to j take pictures of the scene of the riot. A reporter who was with him and the photographer were both drenched with water.
Kappa Kappa Gamma housemother Mrs. Velma Abbott was | hit on the jaw by a boy who vras trying to climb in window of the Kappa house. She said. “I wasn’t hurt and the students aren’t to be blamed. After all, j it’s the first warm day of the year and the water tight is a tradition.”
Alpha Phi housemother Mrs. K. Knadler also got into the show when she was soaked with t
water.
While trying to take a picture in front of the Kappa house. Daily Trojan photographer Pat Patton was spotted by the crowd. She took the picture while running. but was caught as she tried to save the camera by passing it to Trish Knapp, an Alpha Phi sorority sister. When the crowd tried to take her film. Miss Patton. with the aid of Gary Short. Daily Trojan Sports Editor, was able to switch film packs. The group unknowingly took the unexposed film and left Miss Patton with her picture.
Police arrived shortly after and the riot quieted down some, but not completely. Sorority girls began to retaliate by throwing hags of water off the roofs of their houses and on the fraternity men below. The chaos con» tinued until 8 p.m. when thing» finally came to a halt.
“It would have been more fun if it had be^n well organized.'’ Kappa Mary Ann Arrington told a Daily Trojan reported in a phone interview. “The Administration does not like it, hut it is always fun for the kids.”
When the two hour affray had ended, no one had been injured and no major damage had been done, but everyone participating in the uproar had been soaked to the skin.
