Music Groups
To Give'Victory
Musicale' Today
Woodwind Quintet
To Play; American
Music To Be Featured
A special woodwind quintet will
play Carl Eppert's "A Little Sym-
phony" at the "Victory Musicale," to
be presented at 8:30 p.m. today in the
Lydia Mendelssohn Theatre, to be
sponsored by Sigma Alpha Iota and
Mu Phi Epsilon, hono'rary musical
sororities.
The quintet, composed of oboist,
Doris Reed, flutist, Barbara Litch-
field; French horn, Ann Choate,
clarinetist, Mary Laughlin, and bas-
soonist, Sylvia Deutscher, was organ-
ized by these girls during the fall
term. All students in the School of
Music, they have had nufnerous out-
of-town engagements to play for
Rotary Clubs during the year.
The purpose of this affair, which
originated with the national organi-
zation of the sororities, is to help in
the sale of war bonds and stamps,
since the only means of admission is
by the purchase of these from mem-
bers of either sorority or at the door.
The musicale will consist entirely
of modern American music and en-
.semble numbers presented by mem-
bers of the active chapters. A wo-
men's chorus under the direction of
Miss Rose Marie Grentzer, instructor
in music education in the University,
also director of vocal music in Ann
Arbor High School, assisted by Char-
lotte MacMullan, soprano, will sing a
group of three selections: "By the
Waters of Babylon" by Philip James,
"In Youth Is Pleasure" by Robert
Delaney and "An Immorality" by
Aaron Copland. The chorus will also
sing Dorothy James' "Niobe," accom-
panied by a seven-member string
ensemble.

Youth Hit by Car .. .
Michel Temanski, eight years old of'
Ann Arbor, was injured at 3:24 p.m.
yesterday when he was struck by a
car driven by Halar H. Otto on North
State Street, Police Headquarters re-
ported.
Mr. Otto stated that he saw the
boy leave the curb and start to cross
the street against the light. He
shouted at him, but the boy simply
hesitated momentarily, and then
started to cross again. Mr. Otto
says he made a right turn to avoid
hitting the boy, but the youngster
ran into the side of the car.
Mitchel was treated at St. Joseph's
Hospital for cuts and bruises. He
was released immediately after treat-
ment.
Fire DIamages Hon .e . .
The outside and roof of the home
of James Fendren, 718 North Main,
was damaged by a fire that oc-
curred at 2:45 a.m. yesterday.
The fire started in an electric
heater in a chicken coop and spread
to the house.
Firemen used 250 feet of hose andj
chemicals to extinguish the fire.
The Fire Department reported that
there was considerable damage,
since they had to remove a tin roof
to put out the fire, when it spread
to the shingles on the house.
Two Hurt in Crash ...
Viola and Iris Treister of Wash-
tenaw were injured at 1 a.m. yester-
day when the car in which they
were driving smashed into a car
driven by Joseph W. Taylor of Fort
Custer, Police Headquarters stated

Three comedies will make up the
program to be presented by the
French club at 8:30 p.m. May 2 in
the Lydia Mendelssohn Theatre.
In the first, "Rosalie," by Max
Maurey, a stubborn maid takes real
advantage of a delicate situation. Her
employers await the call of an influ-
ential acquaintance of theirs. Rosalie
refuses to open the door for him.
Her employer pleads, promises her a
raise in wages, days off, everything
the maid demands. She opens the
door only after both have apologized
to her.
"Le Cuvier," the washtub, is a
medieval farce. It shows the misfor-
tunes of a hen-pecked husband be-
tween his wife and mother-in-law
and how finally he triumphs over
both of them and becomes master of
his house.
These two comedies will be played
by students.
The third, "Le Client Serieux," will
be played by members of the depart-

The Navy Cross, exceeded in rank
only by the Congressional Medal of
Honor, is not the first honor which
Cpl. Witkowski has received. A mem-
ber of the original landing forces
which went ashore on Tulagi, Gua-

Presidential Unit Citation for action

days at Tarawa, Nov. 20 to 25, 1943,
and is thus entitled to wear the Unit

Cpl. Witkowski will be featured in
a radio broadcast at 11:15 p.m. to-
morrow, and a radio sketch written
by two fellow marine students, Char-

Rev. Lemon
To, Speak on
'Hindu Thought'
Pastor Will Discuss
Mysticism, Buddhism
In Sunday Lecture
The Rev. William P. Lemon, pas-
tor of the First Presbyterian Church
here, will speak on "Hindu Thought"
at 7:30 p.m. Sunday in the Interna-
tional Center.
Dr. Lemon said that he would ap-
proach the subject from a philo-
sophical and literary point of view
emphasizing the contribution of this
oriental group to occidental thought.
Especially interesting, he said, are
their remarkable intuitive insight
and their relationship with mysti-
cism. Considering their relationship
with mysticism he said that there are
many points of contact between the
mystic thought of the East and the
mystic thought of the West.
Besides this discussion of Hindu
thought, he said he will also make
some references to Buddhism.
Dr. Lemon has for many years
been interested in the thought of
India and the Upanishads, treatises
which make up the source of the Ve-
danta philosophy and the Bhagavad-
Gita, one of the supreme scriptures of
India. In addition, some of his rela-
tives have lived in India for many
years.
Miss Mercy Cornelius, a graduate
student from Madras, India, will be
the guest chairman for the evening.
