Euphradian,
Societies Ma
By NEIL b
There are two literary soci
phradian society and the Cla
student may become a memb
societies with little effort.
Membership is a privilege i
on the campus.
Each member can speak out on
whatever issue is at hand. Each
Tuesday, the members can hear
opinions voiced in the nervous voice
of a less accomplished new member
who felt the need of telling the
world how he feels about a subject.
This is followed by an indig
.nant "Mr. President" from an ac
complished young student who
speaks in a smooth, reasoning voice
in agreement or disagreement with
the preceding speaker. First his
voice is pleading, then begging,
then demanding.
Sometimes, tempers flare over
some hot issue and harsh words
follow. The steady, controlling
voice of the presiding officer calls
for order.
Each new member must make
what is called a "maiden speech."
For some of these boys, it is their
first public speech. Sometimes
they forget what they intended to
say, become very nervous, look to
the ceiling for inspiration, look to
the floor for a hole to crawl in,
and finally ask for permission to
speak at a later date. Some of
these same members a few months
later are among the most accom
plished speakers.
Debatable issues almost always
lead to a verbal battle between two
of the older members who are well
versed in the art of speaking and
jockeying on the floor.
These meetings always offer an
interesting and thrilling experience
as well as an opportunity for the

Canterbury
Club Helps
Brazil Boy
By JUNE MARSHALL
Canterbury Club, Episcopal stu
dent group, as it stands to date was
organized in 1942. Before this time
there were two study groups for
college students, one for men stu
dents and one for women.
The purpose of all Canterbury
Clubs throughout the United States
is sixfold - worship, study, ser
vice, giving, evangelism, and unity.
The projects are to finance a
Brazilian student in his clerical
studies; to train and furnish teach
ers for Vacation Bible Schools
throughout the Diocese; to bring
more students into close association
with the church; to become an ac
tive member of the World Student
Christian Federation.
The officers of Canterbury Club
are: Cornelia Schultz, president;
"Corkie" Melcher, vice-president;
and Jimmy Sims, treasurer.
Frances LaBorde is program chair
man and Rudy Farmer devotional
chairman.

Well, I've heard everything now. gu
The staff of the campus radio sta
tion will vote next week to see if
an album titled "Innovations in r
Modern Music" by the Stan Ken- by
ton orchestra will be added to the lei
station's record library. s
Prof. Merril G. Christophersen '
carried his English 21 class to
WUSC last week to hear "Moby i
Dick," as recorded by Charles te
Laughton and a supporting cast.
STRICTLY OFF THE CAM- w
PUS . . . Critics are applauding
"The Cocktail Party," a play by
T. S. Eliot, Nobel Prize winner, for
his pioneering work in modern lit
erature. The Broadway production
is a vivid drama which is always
witty, and at the same time prob
ing and profound. The entire play
has been recorded by Decca records.
Singer Juanita Hall is squeezing
in some time away from her feature
role of "Bloody Mary" in the
Broadway hit "South Pacific," to
appear on her own radio show over
Station WNEW, New York. The
program, titled "Juanita Hall
Sings," features the talented char
acter actress in a dual role, in
which she both sings and chats
about the entertainment world.

another large band of 17 men and
will open at New York's "Bop
City" April 12. Stan Kenton's "In
novations in Modern Music" tour
will take him as far north as
Canada in March. Looks like the
latter part of April before the Ken
ton outfit will reach anywhere near
Columbia. Ralph Flanagan's over
night arrival in the bandleader
limeliwht is psralle! to a male ver
sion of the famous Cinderella
legend. Many fans are describing
the band as a carbon copy of the
old G!en Mi!!er band.
