SKYSCRAPER Pa e TJAree What Goes on... i Y/'- know the sophomore class is J large, but It seems that Bcloit college hostesses at a certain sorority house, entertaining Marie Nordby. there for a fraternity dance, thought it would be nice if she could meet their only other house guest. So they intro duced them, and this conversation en sued: Marie: I'm from Chicago. Jane Nelson: (other guest) Well, well, so am I This coincidence was only the begin ning. Their mutual interests were ov erwhelming in fact, both live on the north side, both arc sophomores from Mundelein, and (this is really the cli max) both are in the same gym class. Who says it isn't a small world? Miss Nelson transferred this year from Lawrence college. * * * W7E announce with pardonable pride the arrival of Dido, Aeneas, and Juno, three white baby rats, who are residing at present in the science de partment. To any who wish to send a gift suitable to the occasion, we recom- ( mcnd Kellogg's Crumbles, since said rats prefer them to any other diet. The science department certainly- has every- I tiling, including the grapefruit tree and m the camellia bush blooming graciously I in its midst. * * * W7E could not hope to classify all of J the hairdos topping our students, I but in one brief day. we, personally. I observed the following: Braids are preferred by Rae Haefel, who ties hers in back with a large bow, and by Rosemary Shanahan, who wears hers either up in two twists or down her back, as the spirit moves her. We have both types of bangs among us: the frou-frou adorns the foreheads of Nathalie Letcher, Altine Kelleher. Dorothy Shuflitowski, Theresa Schmid. HTand Jeanne Du Moulin; they're gently waved for Adele Bujewski, Audrey To bin. Jane Lyons, and June Eng. Some like it short, as evidenced by the three-inch cuts of Kathleen Mc Nulty. Alyce Pankau, Regina Wherity. I Mary Elizabeth Wolfe, and Geneva I Freeman, but Some still arc wearing it down to I their heels, as it were. We cite Marion Seltzer, Irene Fitzgerald, Sybil Slott, Margaret Jean Burke, and Marian An- I tlioulis. We even have our own I ledy I.amarrs. for parted in the middle are the coif fures of Larrainc Knauh, Patricia Kelly, 'and Patricia Scheuneman. And as for color? O-la-la Ann Trave, Thora Hansen, and Hya cinth Hurr are among our straw berry blondes; titians include Pa tricia Cummings, Margaret Kane, Sally Cahill, Margaret Hagen, Mary Jane Bresnahan, Rosemary O'Donnell, and Catherine Griffin; and Mary Celeste Shannon, the p. Brockhaus sisters, Maryanne and Lenore, Dorothy Fiedler, Ruth 3( Rinderer, and Betty Postelnik are in the near-platinum class. * * * THE balls of yarn that we sec roll ing down the halls this year arc khaki-colorcd or navy hlue, and with reason for many of our students are Jcnitting sweaters made to the specifi cations of Service men, to help them feivoid winter shivers. Patricia Her- bert's finished product, for instance, will go to Some One in Scott Field, and June Eng's knitting will keep a Coastguardsman in California warm. 1 (with apologies to the Chamber of Commerce). Patricia Moy's sweater will be worn fin Missouri, in the Fort Leonard re gion, while nearby Jefferson Barracks, Mississippi, will see the little number that Jeanne Kane is purling. Most pa triotic is Ruth Wagner, whose ambi dextrous fingers arc making sweaters and sox for Fort Sill and Fort Knox. (No poem intended.)

Budget, buy, conserve, and substi tute be an intelligent consumer. counseled William H. Conley, dean of Wright Junior college, and member of the Office of Price Administration and Civilian Supply Board, in an address on Nov. 14 before members of the eco nomics and home economics classes. During this period. Mr. Conley point ed out, rising prices and developing shortages may menace the American standard of living. And since national defense means total defense of every part of the American way of living, efficient buying on the part of the con sumer is an integral part of this de fense. With production at its peak, national income at its highest level in years, and national consumption steadily ris ing in billions of dollars, there arc in dications of a sound economic system, hut, he cautioned, the cause of the immediate prosperity is the National Defense program. The government has, therefore, to take measures to insure the stability of the country, and already serious problems are developing from the sud den pressure of meeting greater defense needs and the tremendous foreign ship ments. Intelligent consumer buying, and con serving, he insisted, is of great service to the government now, in its effort to fill defense orders and, at the same time, to prevent inflation. Mr. Conley also spoke of the Wom en's Committee of the State and Local Defense Counsel, which sponsors a ra dio program over Station WLS at 2:30 p.m., Thursdays. Round Town . .

Among the things that you will be thankful for tomorrow, be thankful for a day on which you will be able to do something to be thankful for. And now that this round-robin is over, let's settle down to the subject at hand what to do during the holi days and during the week that follows them. The next lecture in the Charles Car roll Forum Series will be by Henry C. Wolfe and the subject, Both Ends of the Axis. We hope that you will enjoy this discussion of pertinent is sues and their connection to modern, yet Catholic, thought. Entertainment Varies Chicagoans will not be in want for drama, comedy, and music during the next few weeks. Whether or not they will be thankful for the entertainment, depends upon their own personal taste. Village Green, the story of Judge Homer Pcabody, jurist and Democrat from Vermont, appropriately opens on Nov. 20 a Democratic Thanksgiving date. The author is Carl Allensworth, the star, the veteran comedian Jack Norworth, and the place, the Great Northern Theatre. For laughs, a murder, and a glimpse of the histrionic efforts of Hollywood's own Anita Louise and Owen Davis, Jr., see Mr. and Mrs. North. The comedy, which is now running at the Harris theatre, has been adapted by Owen Davis, Sr., from the Loskridge stories. If any of you do not remember the younger Owen Davis, he played the part of Gus Dorais in the cinema produc tion, Knute Rockne All American. Tell Schubert Story The fascinating story of Franz Schu bert and the charm of his immortal music will be brought to the stage of the Grand Opera House on Nov. 23, with the presentation of the perennial favorite, Blossom Time. The role of the great Schubert will be played by Ever ett Marshall. If Mr. Marshall's performance is not impetus enough, the facts that the score was adapted by Sigmund Romberg, and that it includes 20 Schubert melo dies and the story of the love of the great musician for the daughter of the court jeweler should be enough to make everyone see Blossom Time, if it is at all possible. Show Manuscripts In conjunction with the celebration of the fiftieth anniversary of the Chi cago Symphony Orchestra, Newberry Library has put on exhibition the orig inal manuscripts of several great com posers and a series of manuscripts il lustrating the development in musical notation from medieval times. On tomorrow and Friday of this week, the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, with Frederick Stock conducting, will play at Orchestra Hall with Bcla Bartok, pianist-composer, as guest artist. On Friday and Saturday, opera lovers will have the opportunity of seeing and hearing Bizet's colorful Carmen, Wag ner's appealing Lohcngren with Rose Bampton, and Mascagni's stirring Ca- valleria Rusticana. They are scheduled respectively for Friday evening, Sat urday afternoon, and Saturday evening. Observe Art Week By the way, this is National Art Week, and about 4,000 local artists are exhibiting paintings, sculpture, and crafts throughout the city. Although the majority of you will not be able to cooperate with the fulfillment of one of the prime objectives of the week the selling of the work of exhibiting artists you can all advance in the ap preciation of the graphic arts. The headquarters of the Chicago Art Week- committee arc at 646 North Michigan. All in all, there is loads to be done. Yours is the task of finding the time and other necessities of an enjoyable holiday. Success, happy Thanksgiving, and have fun.
