THURSDAY, OCTOBER 29, 1953 Powder Bowl Practice Kapp - a" Kappa Gamma and the Aye Sees of Pi Beta . . Phi are receiving pep talks and instruc tions " from their coaches as the day of the PoWder Bowl game nears. In the first row for the KKGs are (kneeling) Thayer Potter and Frances Black; standing from left to right are Valerie Hobbis, James Garrity, Louise Robert, KKG's, Pi Phi's List Powder Bowl Uniforms By NANCY GRAY Bermuda shorts, knee socks, and Kappa Kappa Gamma jerseys will distinguish the KKG's from the blue jeans and blue jersey wearing Aye Sees of .Pi Beta Phi when they battle it out in the Powder Bowl Saturday. Proceeds from the touch foot ball game, which will begin at 10:30 a.m. on Beaver Field, will go to the Campus Chest. Admis sion charge is 25 cents. Passing and blocking were the first techniques demonstrated by coaches of the two teams. Norman Rubash, seventh se mester petroleum and natural gas engineering major, said he was surprised and pleased - at how quickly the Pi, Phi's caught on to the game. With their speed, spirit, and rubbing liniment, they will take the game according to Ru bash and David Lucas, seventh semester commerce major. Penn Game Rival Joseph Garrity, seventh semes ter recreation major, and Thayer Potter, fifth semester business administration major, are just as enthusiastic for a Kappa win. Some of the women were exposed to a football for the first time three weeks ago, but they have learned quickly since they first found out what the pigskin feels like, the two mentors' agree. Potter commented that practice so far has been "more interesting than the Penn Game." Whether or not he meant bet t e r playing wasn't made clear at the time. Chalk talks and general expla nations and discussions of the game were preliminaries to actual field work. "Patience is a virtue" that the coaches have in large quantities, report the team mem bers, as plays had to be diagram med two and three times. Block With Shoulders Only one of the prospective grid d e r s was injured badly enough to keep her from enter ing the game Saturday. She twist ed a leg muscle. Other casualties consisted of broken fingernails, bumped noses, and a sprained toe. After the first week of practice, muscles began to loosen, the wom en learned to block with shoulders instead of heads, illusions of femi ninity were forgotten and a lot of powder should fly at the Pow der Bowl on Saturday. Players present hay fever Schwab Nov. 5,6, 7 Tickets at S.U. Whispering Gallery (Continued from page four) Our suspicions were confirmed during the first intermission when the lights 'came up and we dis covered the story of the ballet • printed in our souvenir programs. Borrowing a house program from a nearby observer, we identified the principals on the stage. Unfortunately, Margot Fonteyn and Michael Somes danced the previous performance and did not appear. Dancing on ,one's toes for three hours is .1 strenuous task and Miss Fonteyn alternates roles with five other prima ballerinas. Nadia Nerina quashed all our dis appointments when she swooped out of the wings as Princess Odette, the swan maiden, who has been bewitched by an evil enchanter. During the day she glides about the sky as a white swan, but at night in the moon light of the glade she again be comes human. Naturally Alexis Rassine, the deft prince, cannot escape her fa tal beauty and falls in loVe with her. She tells him, obviously by mental telepathy, that the evil spell can be broken only if some one falls in love with her who has never broken his troth. Perhaps most commendable is the second act with its haunting music, halucinatory lighting ef fects, solo dances and intricate precision. Especially fascinating are the four dancers who move about as a single unit. When one head is moved or leg extended, the other three, like graceful automatons controlled by the same lever, follow in split-second timing. The Queen Mother fouls up the works by trying to palm her son off on six lovely demoi selles at a ball at the castle. Prince Siefried spurns them but falls in love with Odile, the Swan princess in human dis guise, who enters with the ma gician. Siefried asks Odile to marry him and, in breaking his troth, abandons Odette to the power of the enchanter. - ' • In the ballroom scene Miss Ne rina demonstrates-her agility and high quality as a-dancer by exe cuting 32 difficult fouettes en place. Mr. Rassine glides about the stage completing perfect body twists in midair with all the fin-. esse of a wild hart scaling fallen trees in a forest.

The Reverend Charles Arbuth not of Switzerland will address the group on "Building a Lasting Peace." teacher's brood of students whose varying degrees of kidney dis orders kept them making frequent trips in and out of the aisle where we sat. But back to the story. In the final act Siefried real izes his mistake and rushes out to the glade to repair his breech to Odette. Together they drown themselves in the lake to escape the powers of the magician. In the dramatic apotheosis they voyage together across the gol den lake in a swan-shaped gon dola to a world of eternal happi ness. Three hours after the opening curtain a syi_apathetic and spell bound audience woke up and real ized it was time to go home. The enchantment ended with the aud ience's applause and the graceful swans fluttering about the stage again became tired and hungry ballerinas. gown 3 gown 3 gocuri3 goa,n, gOWIZ. gown. 4 ou, ' n 3 gown. 3 gocun gown . . .
