Ordinary laundry ing on the Weber campus, much soap is just right. A brush with to the satisfaction of warm-blooded : soft bristles does not dig into mamas who haven't acknowledged that anklets are seasonable. Have you noticed the knee-length novelties that the coeds wear for warmth (and other obvious reasons?) By this I mean stockings. Most of them come in colors of fire-engine red or Kelly green, and it isn't out of reason that lavender will emerge in harmony with that shade of sweater. Streamlining of the ankles is accomplished with length-wise ribbing and a little help from Mother Nature. Woolly mittens claim a lot of attention these days. Unlike the hankie that is made for 'show' and 'blow,' they serve the purpose for which they were named. Most of them have a wool or flannel inner lining which keeps the inside temperature slightly higher than the outside. They match beautifully with your teddy-bear coat, and fit snugly into the sleeves. Just a word of sympathy to the masculine gender who has for many years depended upon the addage of "cold hand, warm heart" for part of their technique. Better luck next year, boys, perhaps the OPA will restrict the use of fur and wool for girls' gloves. Neckerchief Fascinates There is a new scarf making fashion headlines, designed to lend charm to "Curly-Locks" while keeping her ears warm. If spelling "neckerchief" makes any difference, then Grandma had the right Idea in mind when she spelled it "fascinator." We might add that the average fellow nowadays is not entirely immune to feminine appeal, even though he has become accustomed to seeing the female draped with his rogue shirt, gki sweater and ear muffs. Wartime priorities limiting the use of rubber for female footwear are working a greater hardship upon the fair sex this year than ever before. The dearth of rubber boots to protect moccasins and saddle oxfords was trying indeed last season, but the girls braved the bitter blasts with their year-old styles. With the forecast of a long and wet winter, we are again faced with a major problem. Will the old rubber survive the everyday struggle with a size-larger shoe? Can the scrubbing brush be wielded upon the once-white ones, or will the points of wear break through in the process? Have Shoes Dry Here are some hints on how to make your galoshes do for a while longer. When pulling on your overshoes, make sure your shoes are dry. If wet, the shoe will stick to. the heel of your boot, stretching the already thin rubber even thinner. If your shoes have leather soles and heels, you should have little difficulty in climbing into your boots. Even if they are rubber it is comparatively easy if you rememher to keep an old sock handy, that has become outcast because of stretching out of shape. Cover your shoe with the sock and Into the boot she goes. Then you use your initiative to get the stocking out. Of course if you are one of those unfortunate few whose arms just won't reach far enough to enable your getting boots on by yourself, you can eliminate your handicap by putting your shoe into your boot first, then inserting your foot. This method is quite satisfactory except that there is no assurance that your foot is firmly anchored inside your shoe, since you cannot tie It while inside the boot. Hints for Boot Cleansing Keeping the footgear clean is another task, and here are some suggestions. Use a soft brush and mild soap. Palmolive or Ivory is not necessary, as we are not concerned with complexion care.

Never use hot water. It makes the rubber more flexible in spots and even melts it. Cool or luke-warm water will loosen the dirt but will not allow for after-cracking. You can't expect to have beautiful boots after two or three seasons in the mud and slush, but then when were boots ever beautiful except on a horse?

Andersson Passes Up U.S. Jaunt STOCKHOLM, Nov. 10 (UP) Arne Andersson. Swedish mile star, today declined an invitation by the Amateur Athletic Union to compete in the indoor campaign in the United States this winter, and his running-mate and country man, Gunner Haegg, hesitated to commit himself until he received the formal invitation. Andersson said the main reasons he turned down the bid were the discomforts of wartime travel and the difficulty to keep in top form necessary for world records. "I'll never run in wintertime," he added, "but I would be delighted to go to the United States in a couple of years if you still want me then. Weber with his sarcastic wit and his extraordinary talent in almost all the arts. Besides his fame as a concert pianist, Van has the gratitude of editors and dramatic coaches alike for his consistently good work in contributing to college publications and acting in school plays. One of his latest services in the school is his participation in securing a series of recorded concerts to be held weekly in the institute lounge. Betty and Van are our choices for the outstanding couple of the week or year here's to them and let us hope that they will continue upholding Weber's standards for fine musical talent.

As Girls Miss Bull's Eye Finds Safety in Target Bull's eye! This is the aim of all Weber girls who draw the bow string in archery classes. Often times the aim is not true, but enthusiasm is high and they'll try again. In gym periods the girls of Weber are attending archery classes taught by Miss Welling and Miss Coop. These girls assemble each sunny week-day on the lawn east of the gym building to practice. The achery equipment, consisting of ten bows and thirty arrows, is kept m good condition bv the cae- ful handling of all who use it. Ten yards from the target the girls line up in proper stance, place the arrow, draw, aim, then release. The results are numerous one may gam a oun s eye ana score, or an arm burn plus no score. Sometimes one can close both eyes on the aim, release the string, and hit the bull's eye out of pure luck as did "Lula Belle" McPherson in the two o clock class. Practice in this healthful sport can bring true aim and perfect coordination. Weber 'will see the success of many fine achers this year.

The FLOWER SHOP of Monday's concert number is the Roth Quartet The Weber College-Ogden community concert organization sponsors the program at 8 o'clock in the Ogden high school auditorium. The celebrated quartet, according to Mr. Guy H. Hurst, school representative on the concert organization, is a notable attraction on the series. It is a Weber con tribution to the year's program, he said. Individual musicians of the quartet are: Feri Roth, the first violinist and founder of the world-famous ensemble. His musical ability is well known and can be taken for granted. His personal tastes can not; he adores frankfurters. Oliver Edel, cellist, was a star football man in college and plays an exceptional game of tennis. Julius Shaier, violinist, is an accomplished sculptor, but he likes to be remembered as a champion at ping pong. Michael Kuttner, second violin ist, prefers not to be called "second fiddle"; he is a fine conductor and has conducted many great opera performances with the stars of the Metropolitan. As a group they are an orgma-zation of long standing. They have played in America, Europe, and in Africa. On this continent they have given more than 100 concerts. Some 14 European countries have been charmed by their art. Their African concerts were given Ceuta and Tangiers, Spanish Mor occo. According to the quartet's press book, "the four instruments have been carefully selected in relation to each other and to the part they play in the quartet The two violins are the two brilliant high voices of the foursome, equivalent to the soprano and alto in a voice ensemble; the viola and 'cello, the resonant deep voices, are the baritone and bass in relation to the human voice. Taking into consideration the thousands of fine details a string quartet has to explore, which demands infinite work and rehearsing, the four instruments also have to be in perfect blend and balance. Only on exceptionally fine instruments can the four artists attain the sensitive colors of harmonies and melodies which live in their minds and imaginations." The instruments of the Roth Quartet are of the Eighteenth century, which is considered the golden age of stringed instruments. It was the period of the world's best instrument makers, the Italians of the period. Paolo Antonio Testore, famous pupil of Stradi-varius, made the two violins used by the musicians, in Milan in the years 1756 and 1759. The real test of performance, Mr. Hurst feels, is the encore. By that he means the repeat contracts offered to the performers. In this test of appeal and general popularity, the Roth musicians have been most successful. For example, they have played 24 concerts at Stanford university in Palo Alto, Calif. At Brigham Young university, Provo, they have attained the magnificent number of 50 performances. They are most pleasing to Utahns, as they are to others, Mr. Hurst said. SMALLEY BROS. Inc.

Jurgens Reviews Performances Of Opera Artists Continued from Page One) were very exciting. Upon the con elusion of his solo, a girl in the audience was heard to sigh rapturously, "He looks just like an unhappy Latin lover, doesn't he?" This could very well be true, for Martini is tall, dark and has his share of good looks. But I got a distinct impression that he was rather bored by the whole thing. Too bad he couldn't have enjoyed the evening as much as the audience did. Igor Gorin was obviously the favorite of the group, due undoubtedly to the fact that he appeared here in a concert just a short while ago, and then he has infinitely more "ham" in him than any of the others. Arias Are Finest Perhaps the two finest arias in the entire program were those sung by the two women and two men. Delibes' lovely sous le dome epais, from "Lakme," is a very light delicate number requiring a great deal of flexibility on the part of the singers. Mr. Gorin and Mr. Martini did a very nice job with their duet from the "Barbiere di Siviglia." The duet is pretty much of a give-and-take proposition in that first one sings and with an elaborate gesture turns the stage over to the other. The "Goodnight" quartet from "Martha" left quite a bit to be desired. There was a definite trend toward the flat side that was a disappointing contract to their lovely vocalizing of the quartet from "Rigoletto." Following the intermission, Miss Olheim and Mr. Gorin introduced a comparatively unknown number to the delight of the audience. The "Donkey Duet" proved to be most refreshing. Unfamiliar Area Another unfamiliar aria by Mous-sorgsky was done with Miss Ol-heim's aforementioned musicianship. Her sense of the dramatic coupled with her magnificent voice made the number, for me, one of the highlights of the evening. Our poor audience, however, wasn't able to appreciate the quality of it. Never in my life have I heard such a well trained audience in the art of applause. For a few seconds they mechanically clap their hands then dead silence. It must be the much debated seventh . . . .

Mr. Martini gave a beautiful rendition of Rudolph narrative from "La Boheme." In his encore, Mr. Martini gave an inferior performance of "The World Is Mine Tonight." He rushed through it ike he was anxious to get it over. Mr. Gorin's rendition of the 'Tagliacci" prologue was very nicely done. His encore met with the hearty approval of the audience. For my part, if Mr. Gorin would sing the Largo more and act It less I would love it Now I'm only mildly mad about it Miss Tumlnia's Shadow Song was true and showed her marvelous flexibility of voice, with her completely disarming manner. An interesting arrangement of the sextette from "Lucia" rounded out a very refreshing and entertaining evening.
