USG To Spend $l,lOO
For Descriptive Brochure
By JOAN HARTMAN and MEL AXILBUND
Publication of a brochure financed by an $l,lOO appropria
tion was approved 17 to 4 last night by the Undergraduate
Student Government Congress.
The brochure will contain the aims, history, organization
and activities of USG.
David Heitzenroder, acting public relations commissioner,
said he hopes to have the bro
chure ready ,for distribution prior
to the election of All-University
officers this spring
THE 20-PAGE booklet will have
a layout similar to that of The
State Woman, published by
the Association of Women Stu
dents.
A bill proposing publication of
a USG brochure was defeated last
year and last night’s action came
only after lengthy debate and
questioning.
Congress unamiously adopted a
bill recommending that the Elec
tion Commission, provide a small
number of ballots for town stu
dents at every ballot box on cam
pus in addition to the central
polls at the foot of the mall and
on the grdund floor of the Hetzel
Union Building.
Spring Week Chairman Peter
Lockhart, making his first offical
report to Congress, announced
that he estimated ‘/conservatively”
that $2,000 would be added to the
scholarship fund as a result of the
Spring Week events.
Proceeds from the music festi
val sponsored by the Interfrater
nity and Panhellenic Councils and
the Spring Casino sponsored by
the Town Independent Men’s
Council will go into the fund, and
not to those bodies, Lockhart said.
At the conclusion of Lockhart’s
report, Harry McHenry (town) an
nounced that TIM will sponsor a
Violinist To Per
Ruggiero Ricci, who was de
scribed by the New York Times
as an "undisputed master” of the
violin, will appear with pianist
Leon Pommers at 8:30 tonight in
Schwab.
Tickets for the concert, which
is sponsored by the Artists Series,
are still available at the Hetzel
Union desk. Distribution will take
place from 9 a.m. to noon and
from 1 to s’p.m. today.
Although recognized as one of
the world’s foremost interpreters
of music for solo violin, Ricci will
be assisted by pianist Pommers in
sonatas by Porpora, Beethoven

'Let Gypsy Entertain Yah!'
By VINCE YOUNG
Collegian Reviewer
“Let me entertain yah!” That’s
what Warner Brothers and a
couple of million dollars worth of
lavishness are screaming across
America’s theater screens under
the title of “Gypsy,” which some
how turns out to be more fun
than a barrel full of stripteasing
monkeys.
This is the fairy tale of the un
talented girl from Seattle who
was transformed into the greatest
show in show' business, and her
mother who became the mother
of the greatest show in show busi
ness.
ROSE HOVICK (Rosalind Rus
sell) is an entertainment pioneer
woman, without a- frontier, who
tries to push her two daughters,
June and Louise, into the dying
medium of vaudeville. June, a
little blond ball of bounce and
bubble, is the headline of a tired
song and dance routine backed
by four tired boys and her clumsy
baby sister. Soon, vaudeville is
pushed into oblivion by the de-

pression and the talkies. Baby
June becomes bored with it all
and runs away to later fame as
June Havoc. TTie boys leave Mrs.
Hovick also. Now, all that’s left
is Louise (Natalie Wood) and
their manager (Karl Malden).
A new act is in store for the
twosome—but what? Just then,
two of those, well, you know,
kind of girls named Mazeppa, and
Tessie Tura the Texas Twirler,
get Louise interested in “bump
and grind with a gimmick” type
dancing. The rest is history.
Obviously, all sorts of money
was spent in creating the interiors
of at least a half a dozen theatres
and hundreds of costumes to
make “Gypsy” eye-stunning. It is.

ALTHOUGH Ethel Merman
played Mother Hovick on the
stage with some human traits,
Roz Russell carries on like a
stage-struck robot with blinking
neon lights for eyes, and a Hi-Fi
amplifier with the volumn con
trol knob stuck on Full Blast for
vocal cords. Forget Roz is present,
and let Natalie Wood entertain
yah!!
Through the
Looking Glass
with Gabbl
It’s over, the constant rushing
(and gushing) of last week has
ended up by producing many
happy new r i bbon i e s and
equally happy sorority sisters.
Of course it has also produced
a staggering amount of home
work to be finished, or started,
in some cases. Not to mention
the - hours of sleep that have
been missed and the classes
cut. But, it’s all in Cun, and
after all, those dreaded blue
books are still too far in the
future to cause too much
alarm.
Moil, anyone?
Are you tired of staring an
empty mail box in the face
every day? Old american prov
erb states that the quickest
way to receive a letter is to
write one first. Ethel Meserve
states that it’s more fun to
write letters on attractive
writing paper. Did you know
that at Ethel's you can buy
matching stationary and pen
ensembles? The ink in the pen
matches the border around the
stationary! There are 12 stun
ning two-tone color combina
tions and the price . . . only
$l.OO. If you want to impress
your friends with- your col
lege, or your admirable ability
to take notes in class and write
letters at the same time, Ethel
has just the thing for you . . .
regal Penn Stale writing paper
in lap pad form, (also good for
reassuring your parents that
you are stilt in school.) Comes
in pastel colors. Price? $l.OO.
Strange animals . . .
Zoo type, farm type, pet shop
type, all kinds! Haven’t you
noticed them in Ethel Meserve's
lately? The only thing they
have in common is that they
all shake their heads. Perhaps
they’re tired of sitting on the
shelf. But alas, lively and cute
as they are, they are doomed
to the fate of all knick-knacks.
They’d be a colorful and fun
type addition to any college
room. They make cute presents,
100. Cost? $2.50.
One quick reminder before 1
go. Valentines Day is coming
up soon and Ethel has a full
selection of Valentines. But
remember the prettiest ones
and funniest ones are sold out
first, so be an early bird!
Gotta run,
Gabbi
