Let's start the New Year right More than a mere phrase turned melodically by our favorite mellow man, Crosby, these six words embody perfect philosophy to keep your heart warm during a cold January . . . your resolutions strong during that first, long month when it's especially difficult to keep them. We've resolved to work, of course . . . but, always remembering the) greater perfection of a balanced lifej a promise to treat ourselves to gaiety) every so often is not amiss. Just to encourage you, here are some) of the ways in which some Mundeleinj itcs are keeping that last promise . . J Olive Smith and Grace Wurst prac ticed their best tcrpsichory at the IlliJ nois Institute of Technology Ball in) the Continental Hotel. Two guests at the Navy ball at the) University of Illinois were sophomores Shirley Dunmore and Dorothy Hasten.) As a prelude to her own Junior prond Rita Stalzer attended the Junior Prom at the University of Illinois. Marion Ciucci was the belle at a De Paul fraJ ternity dance on Jan. 11. After the ball? Peggy and Patricia O'Brien, Marion Hughes, Jean IrmeterJ and Margaret Mary Garrity like th Edgewater Beach. Elizabeth Wood and) Beatrice Berteau are perfectly satisfied with the Blackhawk. During the Christmas holidays, ElinJ beth McNichols visited The Glass Had in the Congress Hotel, while Marial Kelly stopped off at the Boulevard Room. Marjorie Boyd spent her vacation with a former Chicago schoolmate who is now living in Seelcy's Bay, Ontario, Canada. The nth degree in travel is hen) Rempas' January journey to Denver Colorado, for a week-end wedding. AM this and a thousand miles, too, in 7? hours. Jonith Biggio and Charlotte O'Cc* nor went to Sonja Henie's Ice Revue to see Van Johnson. No luck One of the guests at the Officefll club Christmas Ball at Chanute Field was resident student Kay Gordon. Eleanor Garby, sans Lady, greeted the New Year at the Blackhawk. Piano Major Will Give Senior Recital (Continued from Page 1, column 4.) lection, Ballade in A Flat Major, based on a theme of legendary romance, is replete with flashes of color. Miss Padden's first organ selection is a modern version of an old tune, The Arkansas Traveller, so arranged in differing keys and peculiar har monics as to become a veritable Hu- morcsque Americana. The selection is by Murphee. The Fanfare d'Orgue, by Shelley, which follows is a military symphony in which trumpet tones rise above each other to a glorious climax. Final or gan selection will be Debussy's poign antly memorable melody, Clair de Lune. The opening numbers in Miss Mem- ken's modern group arc symbolic rath er than realistic, although the First Prelude, by Rachmaninoff, has a des criptive picture that equals the more familiar and less difficult Bells of Moscow, Prelude in C Sharp Minor. The Scherzo by Griffes reverts to twentieth-century realism, with rampant rhythms and mechanistic harmonies. The final number in the modern group, Andaluza, by DeFalla, reflects the mod ern Spanish version of a similar idea and is a twin to the well known Ritual Fire Dance. Miss Meinken's final number is the Hungarian Rhapsody by Franz Lizst, who, in his gypsy glorifications, picked up the Hungarian National march, wherein the soul of the artist and the fire of the Slav combine in a mas terpiece of technical dexterity. Winter Review Due Next Month Literary Magazine Includes Prose, Verse With interest centered on the further development of its theme for the year- spiritual reconstruction the College Xfl t'lVrc will make its second appearanoi for the year with an issue early in Febi ruary. Highlight of the winter number of the literary quarterly will be an article o the challenging and unusual Giarl Peguy, written by co-editor Geraldiud Thorpe. Combining their talents, Ruth Casej) and Ruth Reynolds offer what pronj ises to be an entertaining bit of Chested ton nonsense. On the lighter side an) Boy Scouts, by Margery Boyd, and A III Woodwind the Lost Oboe, by J editor Irene Kenney. Short stories by Marion King, Katbj ryn Malatcsta, Jeanne O'Connor, Mia Kenney, Muriel Millar, and Grace Fan an are included in the magazine's fictioJ offerings. Original verse is contributa by Miss Thorpe and Miss Casey, ail Ethel Dignan contributes a translaticJ from the Spanish. Among the contemporary reviews an one by Elayne Johnston of F.mbreel Thirteen Against the Odds, a study oj Negro contributions to progress. Pjtridl Muckian reviews Frank Graham's bioH raphy of AI Smith, and Patricia Holwaj reviews Tcnnien's Chungking I.isteniii Post.
