The fifth annual Chamber Music
Festival given under the auspices of
the University Musical Society, will
be given on Friday evening and Sat-
urday afternoon and evening, Jan.
19 and 20. in the main lecture hall
of the Rackham Building.
To Appear at Three Programs
The Budapest String Quartet, which
is generally conceded to be the out-
standing quartet of the day, will pro-
vide the music for the three pro-
grams. The quartet is composed of
four musicians, each a virtuoso in
his own right: Josef Roismann, first
violinist and the leader of the quar-
tet; Edgar Ortenberg, second violin;
Bo'ris Kroyt, viola; and Mischa
Schneider, violoncello.
The name of the group is both old
and eminent, and goes back many
years in the annals of European mus-.
ical life. Before joining the Quartet,
each of the artists acquired a musi-
cal background of richness and vari-
ety.
Make U.S. Debut in 1930
The Quartet made its American
debut in 1930 at Cornell University,
Ithaca, N.Y. Their first season here
they played some twenty concerts.
Last season, just thirteen years later,
America heard them over eighty
times.
A limited number of tickets for the
concerts may be obtained at the
offices of the University Musical
Society, Burton Memorial Tower,
Charles A Sink, president.

Offi ecr Ii Aes 4fiidaviL
01 lardeni's StauIr ent
By 't i Associated Press
CHICAGO, Jan. ll----An army of-
ficer declared in an affidavit today
the manager of the Royal Oak, Mich.,
store of Montgomery Ward and Com-
pany asserted he felt that working
for the army under presidential or-
der seizing Ward properties wouldI
be "just as traitorous as service in
the German army."
The affidavit of Capt John J.j
McKasy was one of 26, all by army
officers, filed by the government
in support of its suit for a declara-
tory judgment upholding army seiz-
ure of Ward properties in 16 cities
on Nov. 28, and for an injunction to
restrain Ward officials from alleged
interference with army operation of
the facilities.
Capt. McKasp alleged Robert W.
Barden, the Royal Oak store man-
ager, made the remark Dec. 28 after
the army moved in and asked Baden
to accept a War Department appoint-
ment to continue in his job, which
he refused. The affidavit said Bai-
den asserted he did not recognize
any authority in the army to give
him orders.
Again on Jan. 2, Capt. McKasy al-
leged, the Army asked Barden toI
cooperate as manager under War De-l
partment jurisdiction but Barden
stated he would not so act and said
he would "just as soon be with Hit-
ler as to comply with yourrequest."

At least a four-way race for nomi-
nation for two seats on the Board of
Regents of the. University of Michi-
gan was shaping up.

because the weather is so damp and

The towns and villages are very
quaint and the lassies not too bad,

WASHINGTON, 'Jan. 11-(P)--
Secretary Stimson, asserting that the
army has withheld no casualty fig-
tires, promises a report next week
on American losses during the De-
cember phase of the German coun-
teroffensive in Belgium.
He released figures today showing
that . army casualties since Pearl
Harbor have reached 564,351 on the
basis of reports compiled in Wash-
ington through December 29. These
figures, he said, reflect actual casual-
ties two or three weeks earlier. The
German drive intelgium and Luxem-
bourg began December 16.

NEW YORK, Jan. 11-All's fair in
love and war, but if you want to be
fair to your love in this war, get his
valentine in the mail by Jan. 15.
The War Department says paper
cupids and hearts mailed after that
date may not reach the boys overseas
by Valentine's Day, Feb. 14. Only
cards sent in sealed envelopes by first
class mail will be accepted and it is
estimated that some 10 million will
be sent to servicemen this year.
The military and patriotic motif is
conspicuously absent from this year's
cards, which are mostly old-fashion-
ed and unashamedly sentimental.
The slapstick card of previous years
had been replaced by the "cutie va-
riety, current sales records, show.

This is incidentally, the first year
the word "wolf" has appeared on
valentines, the greeting card indu-
stry declares, and gives as a sample
of current howling verse:
"I don't mind being poor.
So long as you're the wolf outside
the door."
Blacks-Out Again
LANSING, Jan. 11.-(A)-The dome
on Michigan's capitol, relighted only

went dark again tonight in compli-
ance with the federal fuel conserva-1
tion order. It will remain dark until
the public lighting ban is lifted.
