Seger _Will SpeakTomorrow

i

Gerhart Seger, former member of
the German Reichstag, will speak un-
der the auspices of the local Commit-
tee to Defend America by Aiding the
Allies at 8 p.m. tomorrow in the lec-
ture room of the Rackham Building.
"The German Fifth Column" will
be the subject of Seger's talk. He was
a member of the Reichstag's Commit-
tee on Foreign Relations, and because
he opposed Hitler's appointment as
chancellor was placed in a concen-
tration'camp.
Seger described his concentration
camp experiences in the book, "Oran-
ienburg," which has sold over 224,000"

copies and has been translated into
six languages.
He spent six months in a concentra-
tion camp before escaping over the
border to Switzerland. His wife and
infant child were interned in a men's
concentration camp until women
members of the British Parliament
secured their release through diplo-
matic negotiations.
Seger has delivered some 756 lec-
tures on European affairs since com-
ing to the United States, and he ap-
peared in Ann Arbor previously dur-
ing October.

Organ Recital
To Be Given
By Christian
Prof. Palmer Christian of the School
of Music will present his annual
Christmas organ recital at 4:15 p.m.
tomorrow in Hill Auditorium.
The program, which will consist of
the lesser known selections written
for this holiday, will open with De-
thier's "Variations on an ancient
Christmas Carol" and will continue
with four choral preludes, "Vom Him-
mel hoch da komm' ich her" by Pa-
chelbel, Bach's "In dulci jubilo,"
Brahms' "Es ist ein Ros' entsprungen"
and "Der Tag der ist so freudenreich"
by Dupre.
Other compositions which will be
heard are "Pastorale" and "Festival"
by Maesch, Hure's "Communion for
the Midnight Mass" and Bonnet's
"Rhapsody Catalane." The last is
based on three Catalonian folk-tunes,
including the familiar "We three
Kings of Orient are."
Also scheduled to be played by Pro-
fessor Christian is the Waloon Christ-
mas Rhapsody by Ferrari which com-
prises "Le bel ange du ciel," "Allons
a Bethlehem," "0, nuit, heureuse
nuit," "Toc, toc, ouvrez," "Ecoutez,

By S. R. WALLACE
The Union Opera's leading lady
and three other as feminine hench-
men went forth into Michigan cam-
pus life this week-end for practical
experience in "socialized romance"'
and for coed affirmation that de-
spite their roles in "Take A Number"
they are still rugged males.
James Bob Stephenson, '43, the
opera's heroine, and James Gorm-
sen, '42, Mark Cheever, '41E, and
Bryant Dunshee, '42, members of the
high-kicking chorus line, trooped up
sheepishly to the Soph Cabaret Dat-
ing Bureau in the Union on Satur-
day to learn the principles of blind
dating, somewhat in the manner as
will be expounded in "Take A
Number's" woo booths. Since the
play's story centers around a college
of the future which tries to increase
its enrollment with woo booth dating
bureaus, Richard Hadley. director of
the comedy, insisted that his "girls"
get first hand information.
In any case, four women were pro-
vided for them to escort that after-
noon to the Soph Cabaret tea dance
at the League. Reporting to director
Hadley after the dance they admitted
that besides having learned a good
deal about dating mechanism, they
would, in the future, be more en-
thusiastic about the .opera's social-
ized romance plan. It seems that
their blind venture into campus ro-
mance was not disappointing.
However, the four are anxiously
awaiting the publication of this arti-
cle, for it is here for the first time
that they will be able to see the re-
actions of the dates to their own

male, and not chorus girl, charms.
The following are the comments:
Mtrgaret Harman, '44, who dated
StepIhenson: 'I think he'll make a
very cute leading lady, but I don't
think that's any reflection on him as
a date. He's a marvelously interesting
talker . . . too interesting, I think,
to ever be a woman!"
Betty Haas, '43, who dated Dun-
shee: "He's too good a dancer to be
a woman. As a matter of fact, he's
also too courteous, and too much
fun."
Marjory Lovejoy, '44, who dated
Mark Cheever: "He'll make a good
chorus girl, because he's a grand
dancer. And he measures up pretty
well in comparison to other dates,
and better than some!"
Gormsen's date, who doesn't wish
publicity, but who nevertheless in-
sists it isn't his fault, declared: "If
Jim is going to be a woman in the
opera, I pity the opera's men. Won't
they be embarrassed playing oppo-
site a 6 foot, 4 inch, football-shoul-
dered "woman?"
