Perfectionist John Barbirolli con-
ducted the New York Philharmonic-
Symphony Orchestra through its
second Choral Union Concert Sun-
day, in Hill Auditorium before a ca-
pacity crowd.
Highlighting the program, which
was broadcast internationally as a
regular Sunday afternoon Philhar-
monic feature, was Sibelius' Sym-
phony No. 2 in D major. The next
Choral Union offering will be Rich-
ard Bonelli, baritone, on Tuesday,
Dec. 3.
In an interview following the con-
cert, the dark-complexioned, world-
famous maestro expressed his pleas-
ure at playing before an Ann Arbor
student audience, which he described
as "refreshingly eager," in compari-
son with metropolitan audiences. He
also pointed out that the program
had been especially designed for the
students' appreciation, and not for
his radio audience. Four tentative
prgrams had been sent to Charles A.
Sink, president of the University Mu-
sical Society which sponsors the Chor-
al Union Series, and his choice was
the one played on Sunday. Barbir-
olli also admitted ruefully that he
had had an unpleasant interview with
his sponsors because the Sebelius
number had already been played once
this season over the air.
Recently married, his wife listened
to the concert backstage at Hill
Auditorium and expressed her regret
at not having the time to see the
Michigan campus which Barbirolli
had described to her as "a wonder-
ful place." The maestro spent a day
seeing the local sights last year dur-
ing the May Festival performances.
Polish organization, the Polish En-
gineering Society will hold a regular

HELEN ELLIS-..
* * *
By WILL SAPP
Fritz Crisler isn't the only one who
holds secret practices around here ...
just try to get into Union Room 305
some afternoon.
It's Mimes' Union Opera behind
that "door. Forty hairy-legged Michi-
gan men are smoothing up dance rou-
tines for Opera opening night, Dec. 11.
Brains and driving force behind all
the intricate steps, shuffles and body
dips is blondish-brunette Miss Helen
J. Ellis of the physical education de-
partment. "Yes, it's real work,"
sighed Miss Ellis, as if she could yet
see that roomful of awkward men
that answered her call three weeks
ago, "but it's satisfying to work with
these fellows . . . they really. work
hard. Personally, I think taking wo-
men's parts appeals to them."
The "Take A Number" chorus is
full of real he-men this year, accord-
ing to Miss Ellis. "And that's what
is worrying me. Just look at those
hairy legs. The 'women' are worried
that they will have to shave their
legs . . . but I told them that they
were too beautiful."
All members of the seven different
choruses know that they must mimic
girls by wearing backless formals,
sweaters and skirts, lipstick, wigs and
playsuits. But diminutive Miss Ellis
feels that her hardest job will be to
induce them to wear high heels.
A graduate of New York University,
Miss Ellis studied at the Bennington
School of Dance and in private New
York schools before accepting a posi-
tion at Purdue University three years
ago. Here at Michigan since 1937,
Miss Ellis instructs girls gym classes,
Capt. Davidson Talks
Today To NROTC Men
"Organization and Administration
of the Naval Shore Establishment,"
will be discussed by Capt. Lyal A.
Davidson of the Naval ROTC depart-
ment at 4 p.m. today in Room 348 of
the West Engineering Building.
Among the things which will be
considered are basic laws, flow of
command and differentiation be-
tween military and productive con-
trol in the navy.
Second in a lecture series on naval
subjects, the talk is part of a course
designed to serve members of a spe-
cialist class in the Volunteer Naval
Reserve.
The remainder of the series will
deal generally with the Navy, its mis-
sion, organization, composition, train-
ing and operation with features of
particular interest to prospective of-
ficers of theConstruction Corps Re-
serve and those restricted to engin-
eering duties only.
