Power House Quenches Hell Fire The Power House takes great pleas- uré in announcing that the heat was turned off for the summer on May 11 at 2 p.m. In spite of a torrid May Day and the fact that the mercury rose to 102 degrees in Goodhart, sum- mer did not officially begin until that hour. The Power House authorities, accus- tomed to the constant temperature of their own domain, have no doubt for- ‘got that in the outside world weather conditions do change. Shunning heat reports as men shun straw hats be- fore May 15, they kept the radiators bubbling merrily, until the sacred mo- ment of closing the furnaces arrived. TSS nan gus NEW YORK BOUND...

On Your Toes is:a slick example. Its slight frame agreeably serves the precise Wit of ‘its author, Mr, George Abbott, still being applauded for his Three Men On a Horse, and. his colleagues Mr. Rogers and Mr. Hart. But what |makes On Your Toes peculiarly out- standing for this typeof entertain- ment is the shrewd choreography of with, the American Ballet, and to a lesser extent, the typically opportune settings of Joe Mielziner. This ex- traordinarily able group of men have attempted and partially succeeded in satirizing the Russian Ballet and have chosen a responsive cast. Ray Bolger, who combines a squir- rel-like agility, a comical manner and thorough dancing ability, is a hoofer, suppressed as a college professor. When a student, suitably portrayed by Doris Carson, yaltruistically schemes to release him, she is amazed by his responsiveness. In fact, he is Tamara Geva, as an _ attractively tdominating ballet star.’ At this Mr. Bolger’s native talents explode and when the scene clears he is definitely in command of her electrified troup. The most distractingly charming of all the castis Miss Luella Gear, who, as a slightly passé trouper, is delight- fully at ease. As the only wise mem- ber of the cast she enjoys herself im- mensely by fostering an outgrowth from the main burlesque which is pointed at the players themselves. Monty Wooley has preserved exactly of an aging roué. to present the most incongruous danc- ing which has ever appeared in a Broadway musical. Mr. Ballanchine has based his ballet, as may be ex- pected, on graceful technique, muscu- lar litheness and a responsible chorus; consequently his mass effects do not depend on novelty, but are provocative per se. It is precisely this superior dancing which arrests the complete enjoyment, of the spectator, who is prodded every now and then by the almost latent realization that the dance is a bur- lesque and really meant to be comical. As the first ballet progresses it does introduce some perfectly ridiculous postures, most of which, however, would evoke a shudder rather than a laugh in a more subdued atmosphere, sical show, the more extravagant and -George Balanchine, who is affiliated soon fit to be taken in hand by Miss! the proper amount of the dignity: which was actually his as a late Yale; professor and brightened it in his role! gracefully, | Bolger’s dancing swells to capable All this burlesque and talent serves} Beards, Black or - Red, | Appear as if by Magic Flat Paint and Eye-Shadow Adorned .. . Hair and Complexions To an’ innocent by-stander the campus. on Friday and Saturday morning, with bearded sladies and other oddities about, must have seemed like the home of circus performers. Girls, who from a distance looked per- fectly normal, had facés colored any- where from a very ruddy tan to the wilder shades of blue, green and even gold, and on top of this anything from a dapper waxed moustache to a full- grown bush covering most of the face. Goodhart dressing rooms were a havoe of tubes, powders, eyebrow pencils and- false hair, in the midst of which three professional make-up artists, two men from the Hedgerow Theatre, Miss Dyer, Mr. Wyckoff, Betty Lord and several others adorned | faces with bushy eyebrows, putty /nases’ and’ wrinkles, turning out won- derful, if incredible, specimens. The beards were usually made of wool hair, which came in long twists and ranged from golden yellow for Prince John to black for the Turkish Finally, the dance becomes increas- ingly obvious in its intent and unhap- pily is climaxed by Mr. Bolger’s ap- pearance as an Eddie-Cantorish slave who has forgot his body blacking. | The Jast ballet releases Mr. Bolger of all‘plot obligations, and properly, too. As a cheap hoofer in the ballet, he is forced to kill the swaggering “toughie” who loves the strip-tease girl, again Miss Tamara Geva. The rowdy aspects of the situation having been effectively emphasized, the brute killed, his lady having crumpled the crescendo of Mr. proportions. He does a macabre, slinking dance about the corpse, against a fittingly sordid background of a “den of evil.” When recalled to the basic situation he is considerably shattered to find two gunmen aiming at him from a box, melodramatically awaiting the last chord. Mr. Bolger’s dancing eclipses that of the rest of the show as he jitters about the stage in a subtle compromise between humor and terror. Mr. ‘Rodgers’ catching music is properly syncopated to accentuate Mr. Hart’s lines, slightly léss clever than usual, but still very pleasing. The results, already bound for popularity, are such as lyrics as: It’s Got to Be and The Heart Is Quicker Than the Eye. M. C. H.

HOMETOWN PAPER HAS EYE FOR “LUCKY GIRL” Under the cosy title, “Home Folks Here and There” and a subtitle “Lucky Girl,” the following notice appeared in the hometown. paper of .one. under; graduate: This department’ has been scan- ning the rotogravure sectiofls of the metropolitan dailies for pic- tures of Miss Mary Ann Blank, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Blank, who appeared as a milk- maid in the Bryn’Mawr May festi- val. .The festival, which is held once every four years, is THE event in the life of any Bryn Mawr girl, as it is always put on with a great deal of majesty and circum- stance, and everyone who is lucky enough to have a part in it, well— is just plain lucky. We ought to mention, too, speak- ing of Mary Ann’s achievements, that her name was well up on the college scholastic honor list which appeared a few weeks ago. - She will be graduated next month, and G. MARRINER PRAISES SPIRIT OF MAY ai May 11. —Guy Marriner, whose mu- sical prestige recommends him as an able commentator of May Day, is uns. able to recall ah outdoor event im- pressive enough even to compare with the pageantry of last weekend. The convincing spirit of the participants, Mr. Marriner feels, transformed “the audience into a’ congregation” and then “lifted them completely out of the century.” Added to this was the humor which characteristically pene- trates all American artistry. Though the festive atmosphere barred all staginess, the exact details and sound direction ‘were pleasurably apparent. Mr. Marriner was especially appre- ciative of the coloring of the costumes, so expressive “of the joy’ in the hearts of the Elizabethans.” Well*acquainted with the steps which English villagers still practice, 'Mr. Marriner declared. that not a step was performed on the Greene which these folk do not. still enjoy. In Mr. Marriner’s~ opinion, Mr. Willoughby cannot be commended enough for his thoughtful arrange- ments and “exquisite timing” of the music. Mr. Schumann’s compositions for the Cloister dances also displayed much excellence, but their sound ef- fect might have been bettered in per- formance. - A valuable change in the future would be to have the band memorize their parts and so make a better ap- proach to*the bandstand. St. George’s costume was so impressive that Mr. Marriner feels that the addition of a Richard Coeur de Lion and a band of knights similarly dressed would be an effective note in a future May Day. we have a notion she will be collect- ing prizes and honorable mentions no end.
