Teen•Age
Sophisticates
By HELEN TENNENBAUM
"'
"NEAR YOU" and "Beg Your
Pardon" are two songs which
have reached the top of your
Hit Parade, and here's news
which will lead
you to some
'solid f u n.
Francis Craig,
composer of
these tunes,
will pay a visit
to our fair city
for a week's
stay at the
Broadway Cap-
itol the end of
Helen
May.
Francis will be preceded by
Stan Kenton, May 14 while Hor-
ace Heidt with his talent show
including Dick Contino, 18-year-
cid accordionist, will be here
starting Saturday.
Besides taking in "Gentlemen's
Agreement" and a baseball game,
this gives you plenty of events
for your calendar.
By the way, it may prove wise
to start studying for those 18th
week exams. Better a little at a
time than none at all, hmmm?

EVERYONE SEEMS to be
wondering what those red rib-
bons mean. We are referring to
the red bands being worn by
Jack Solomon, Harvey Howard,
Kenneth Laine, Nort Weiss and
Milford Lewis who are some of
the eager pledges to the Phi
Sigma Nu. This popular frater-
nity is planning a fun-tilled hay-
tide for members and dates.

THE FRESHMEN of various
colleges were mighty glad to be
reunited during the holy-days.
As Rabbi Adler of Shaarey
Zedek put it, "It is wonderful to
see so many of our former Jun-
ior Congregation members join
us at this time; indeed it is al-
ways an inspiration to see so
many of our young people with
us."

WHEN THE HOT WATER
SUDDENLY RUNS ICE-COLD
IT'S TIME TO SWITCH TO

snow. It's completely automatic—and it's
absolutely safe . . . no flame . . . no fumes
. . . no soot.
See electric water heaters today at your near-
est Edison office, your plumber's or at your
