PRELUDE IN C SHARP MINOR
(By L. L. N)
In spite of the lengthy program of
the Rachmaninoff concert in Hill au-
ditorium last night, the audience kept
clamoring for more and was not ap-
peased until Rachmaninoff sat down
at the piano and rendered another of
his poetic interpretations. His truly
artistic playing, his wonderful inter-
pretations, and his unique personal-
ity, all blended together in painting
tone poems of inflinte beauty, so em-
inent in color value that after striking
the ear they progessed to the heart
and nestled there.

M'en In Uniform
Live War Again
"Say, buddie, this is the stuff, what
do you say?" was the way the ex-
service men expressed their approval
of the housewarming extended to
them by Betsy Barbour house yester-
day afternoon.
Homelike informality reminded the
men of hours of leave spent at Y. M
C. A. canteens and this idea was car-
ried out by Miss Eleanor Sheldon,
who appeared in her uniform, by the
familiar signs and especially by the
dining room, which represented a Y.
M. C. A. canteen where the guests
were served coffee and doughnuts,
while cider was to be had in the sun-
parlor.
"Ascenseur derange" was the sign
on the elevator which caused men to
smile in reminiscence. More than 300
men were entertained. There was
