Rehearsals Increasing Tempo For 'Rock Chalk Revue' April 1
Rehearsals are now in progress for the "Rock Chalk Revue." The show is to be given 7:30 p.m., Saturday, April 1, Hoch auditorium. It is sponsored by the Y.M.C.A. and will consist of eight humorous skits written, directed, and staged by students.
Four sororites and four fraternities will be represented in the eight shows in one production to be held at the 6th Annual A.C. on April 1 in Hochstorf auditorium.
"Villain's Downfall" or "Crime Does Not Pay", written and directed by Jane Schmidt; will be presented by the Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority. It is an old fashioned melodrama written in blank verse. The production crew included Jean Lutrick, stage manager; Kay Shelton, properties; Natalie Logan, lighting; Marlyn Frizell, costumes; and Jane Schmidt, make-up.
Pi Beta Phi sorority will present "Flapper Fling," written and directed by Margaret Granger, Connie Kendall and Barbara Coats.
"Under the Bed," a musical force with an "after closing hours in a sorority house" situation, will be presented by the Sigma Kappa sorority. This skit, written by Kathleen Cale and Carolyn Oliver, will be directed by Margaret Miller. Carol Dunn is stage manager.
Marian Mills and Phyllis Clegg will direct the Alpha Phi sorority skit, "A Pledging Half and Half." Written by Phyllis Clegg, this musical force depicts the hardships of pledge training.
A unique type of staging will be used for the first time in Hoch auditorium. While one half of the stage is in action, the other half will be in preparation, thus enabling the skits to be presented continuously without any time lapse between the acts. The new curtain in the auditorium makes this possible.
Tickets are now on sale in all organized houses and will soon be on sale on the campus.

Missionary Tells Need Of Aid In Congo
Missionaries to the Congo must write their own textbooks and find new methods of teaching. Mrs. Robin Cobble, missionary home on furlough from the Belgian Congo, told this to delegates to the Kappa Beta convention. March 18.
Mrs. Cobble said that most missionaries find that the different life in the Congo requires a considerable adjustment. They have no real friends among the Africans during their first term because of language barriers and because the Africans take time to judge them before becoming their friends.
It is during the second term that the missionaries become adjusted and realize they have lost what they thought was their life and have found another.
Mrs. Cobble added that there is a great need for missionaries in the Congo at the present time.
Finally during their third and successive terms they find the joy of having been out in the Congo and see the results of what they have done.
