Mrs. Frances W. Newton, Ann Arbor
resident: "I enjoyed the festival a
good deal, and consider Dorothy May-
nor's performance the high-spot of
the four-day period. However, I do
think next year they might eliminate
the two concerts in one day. It was
tiring."
Seymour Pardell, '41: "I was dis-
appointed in not being able to hear
Lawrence Tibbet, and hope he may
be engaged for the 1941 festival, al-
though Kipnis was outstanding in the
type of music he sang."
Arthur Draper, '42: "The chorus of
students did an excellent job in Sat-
urday night's concert. I would sug-
gest,ihowever,bthat the calibre of
music offered by the symphony or-
chestra next year be improved, and
less concession be made to popular
taste."

Hot Heads Get Clipped
As Summer Rolls In
Hair fell yesterday. Hot headed
students flocked to local barber shops
to rid themselves of all unnecessary
hirsute encumbrances, and head bar-
bers at several shops reported a boom
business. Changes in weather, one
man pointed out, always produce
shear activity in the shops.
Asked whether brush cuts had the
edge on other kinds in hot weather,
one first chair man said that al-
though he could not accurately com-
pare the coiffures, he was quite sure
that brush cuts were confined to
certain individuals, and did not
extend to other students.

ant station manager and chief en-
gineer; Maggie Soenksen, Grad, pro-

ing Service at the Annual Spring Glee
Club concert last month may be
ordered at Morris Hall. Two ten-
inch transcriptions of ten selections
will be available for one dollar apiece.
Some of the titles offered are: "'Tis
of Michigan," "I Want to Go Back
to Michigan," "When Night Falls,"
"In College Days," and "The Yellow
and Blue."
A number of Finnish Relief Con-
cert recordings and Louis Untermeyer
transcriptions can also be obtained
