The annual Michifish Syn-
chronized Swim Show, "On Stage,"
will be presented tonight and to-
morrow at 8:15 p.m. at the Mar-
garet Bell Pool on Forest Street.
This year's theatrical theme will
depicts such numbers as "The
Sound of Music," Macbeth's three.
witches, the hilarious Keystone
Cops, and "The Happening." A
duet by Roz Juve and Sue Ward,
complete with golden shields and
martial music is entitled "Roman
Soldiers."
A solo by Penny O'Neal will por-
tray the three stages of "Iphelia."
Another solo by Sandy Legan is
taken from the show "Sweet Char-
ity." A floating pattern number
called "Stained Glass Windows"
uses early Christian miracle plays
as a motif. The patterns form
colorfl'l shapes and designs as
seen in the church windows.
Practice for the show begins in
the fall with each member of the
Michifish Club perfecting her in-
dividual skills. By second semester,
the theme and numbers for the
.swim Show have been chosen andt
the club works as a team to com-
bine the individual skills into a
group production.
This will be the last Michifish

show for Miss Patricia Daugert,
the club sponsor. She leaves the
Physical Education department
after working with the Michifish
show for six years.
After the water show is over,
the club will be participating in
two competitive' meets. The In-
ternational Academy of Acquatic
Arts, in Decalb, Illinois, will be the
rite for state-wide competition
from the midwest.
This year the entire Michifish
club will compete in hopes of
receiving an award for excellence
for the finals of the water show.
In previous competion, the club
has outshined other clubs with its
large team numbers.
The second competition is the
Intercollegiate Competition held
at Western Michigan University.
Last year the duet and team num-
bers defeated over twenty other
colleges from the midwest area.
The numbers that are presented
in competition are taken from the
water show and are chosen by
Miss Daugert on the basis of dif-
ficulty of the number, synchron-
ization, execution and style.
Tickets may be purchased at the
door tonight and tomorrow, or
at te pool during the day.

Legislature, both Republican and
Democrat.
Sen. Emil Lockwood (R-St.
Louis), the Republican majority
leader, said yesterday that he had
received assurances from Demo-
crats tlat they will ressurect the
bill.
Lockwood declined to predict
what form the amended bill will
take or how many senators would
vote for it in the second round.
Most of the committee haggling
in developing an acceptable pack-
age will be in the rates of taxa-
tion. Democrats have called for &
higher tax on corporate income.
Romney has warned that if no
decision on fiscal reform is made
before the beginning of the new
fiscal year, July 1, the state will
face a 15 per cent cutback in serv-
ices, about half of them in the
area of state aid to education.
