TUESDAY, APRIL 29, 1958 University Orchestra Will Feature Coed The University Symphony Orchestra will present Mary Jane West, junior in music education from Bethlehem, as soprano soloist for its annual spring concert at 8 p.m. tomor row in Schwab Auditorium. Conducted by Theodore K. Karhan, the orchestra will open with Rimsky-Korsakov's "Russian Easter Overture," a hol iday overture based on church ,themes. The overture combines the reminiscences of ancient pro phecy and the general pagan mer rymaking to paint a picture of the Easter season. The second number of the pro gram is a Johannes Brahms Chor ale, "Let Nothing Ever Grieve Thee." The chorale may have been written as a consolation to Clara Schumann after Robert Schu mann's death in 1856: "Let noth ing ever grieve thee . . . what God wills is . best." Mary Jane West will sing the soprano solo in "Marietta's Song From 'The Dead City'," by Erich Korngold. "To the persistent ac companiment of the City bells, the aging Marietta remembers a happier past and recalls a plaintive song in which her lover promises always to be faithful." "Serenade of String Orchestra" by Robert Volkman, a pupil of Schumann and most famous for his chamber music, and "The White Peacock," a ballet by Charles Griffes, are also included in the program. The final number will be Deems Taylor's "Through the Looking Glass Suite" narrated by Raymond Brown. The suite is an attempt to translate into music the atmosphere of be wildered fantasy found in Lewis Carroll's classic fairytale. White Named Penn State's 'Prof Sn rf' Smiling, bespectacled E.

Upon their return they arranged to have the birds sent by air. Because of their size, the gooney birds have no natural enemies and are fearless. They do, how ever, use their large beaks if there is a need to defend them selves. And Frings points out that one snap of the beak can mean one less finger for one who does not heed their warning.
