Euphradian, c Societies Mai By NEIL M There are two literary socie phradian society and the Clar student may become a membe: societies with little effort. Membership is a privilege gi 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- t complished young student who g speaks in a smooth, reasoning voice I in agreement or disagreement with a the preceding speaker. First his voice is pleading, then begging, a then demanding. Sometimes, tempers flare over a some hot issue and harsh words g follow. The steady, controlling t voice of the presiding officer calls c for order. a Each new member must make v what is called a "maiden speech." a For some of these boys, it is their f first public speech. Sometimes t they forget what they intended to say, become very nervous, look to p the ceiling for inspiration, look to n the floor for a hole to crawl in, a and finally ask for permission to speak at a later date. Some of c these same members a few months e later are among the most accom- i: plished speakers. 1 Debatable issues almost always- n lead to a verbal battle between two b of the older members who are well p versed in the art of speaking and n jockeying on the floor.

The contest will be broadcast directly from Mel. ton Field with Smith giving the play-by-play description. The university theatre's next production will be George Bernard Shaw's "You Never Can Tell." The play will be presented at Drayton Hall April 18, 19, and 20. You never can tell if you like it, until you see it. Well, I've heard everything now. The staff of the campus radio sta tion will vote next week to see if an album titled "Innovations in Modern Music" by the Stan Ken ton orchestra will be added to the station's record library. Prof. Merril G. Christophersen carried his English 21 class to WUSC last week to hear "Moby Dick," as recorded by Charles Laughton and a supporting cast. STRICTLY OFF THE CAM 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 Fome 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 t.h entertainment world. ON THE BANDWAGON . . . Woody Herman is organizing 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 limelight is parallel to a male ver sion of the famous Cinderella legend. Many fans are describing the band as a carbon copy of the old Glen Miller band.
