Popular Square Dance Club Attracts Students And Faculty
Clubs, physical educational classes, and even the faculty have caught the "bug" for square dancing.
Four faculty members of the art department and their partners meet one Wednesday evening in the community building and the next Wednesday in one of the instructor's homes. They now have one square, but they are planning to expand it to three, composed of faculty members and students. The dancers are in the process of naming their group. When asked what they thought of it, Carlyle H. Smith, assistant professor of design, replied, "I love it, but oh! mv feet!"
The music and calls are furnished by records, of which some of their favorites are "Buffalo Boy" and "Dive for the Oyster."
"Swing Like Thunder," which means sweeping the women off their feet, is a favorite dance of the Square Dance club. The club meets every Wednesday evening in the Union recreation room.
Eighty physical education majors and interested square dancers are enrolled in the square dancing class, which is instructed by Miss Grace Westmoreland, instructor in physical education. The class meets at 11 a.m. on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.
T. K. Foster, president of the club announced that the club is sponsoring an all-school square dance on Friday, March 16. Regular dance fiddlers will play, with professional callers leading the dances.
Among their favorite dances are "Birdie in the Cage," "Forward Six," "Texas Star," and "Dive for the Oyster." The music is furnished by records.

Refuses $500Contract With Movie Career
**Hollywood**—(U.P.)—Here's a Cinderella story in reverse: A pretty blonde Fuller brush girl not only turned down a movie career today—she told the goggle-eyed movie moguls she thinks it's a pretty awful way to earn a living.
"I'd rather sell" door-to-door,
said 29-year-old Grace Johnson.
"Screen stars have to get up too early.
"Besides, it's not so glamorous. From what I've seen, it looks like plain hard work to me."
But from what the big shots at Columbia studios saw when she first walked onto a set, Grace has all the makings of a cinema cutie. They asked around and found out she was a technical adviser on Lucille Ball's movie, "The Fuller Brush Girl."
Up and Coming
Producer S. Sylvan Simon offered her a $500-a-week contract for a comedy role in same. Grace said no thanks. Another producer came up with a contract for a "quickie western." She turned that down, too.
"If they'd asked me a few days earlier I MIGHT have considered teaching them how hard Lucille works, how she has to be on the set at 6 a.m.

KU Student Organizes Vocal Ensemble To Be Styled Like Madrigalian Chorus
A new vocal ensemble has been organized by Clayton Krehbiel, graduate student. Although the group is styled after a madrigalian chorus, it will include modern compositions along with the 17th century music.
At the present time the group is working on the "Magnificat" by Bach.
The chorus is directed by Krehbiel who was director of the chorus of "Sweethearts". He has sung with the Robert Shaw Choralie for three years in New York. The new chorus will specialize in music that cannot be sung effectively by a large choir.
The 15 vocalists of the ensemble are Archie Clever, William Wilcox, education senior; Robert Paris, engineering senior; Betty Hayward and Mary Lynn Lucas, fine arts seniors; Willard Straight and Jane Lucas, fine arts juniors; Joan Baur education junior; John Wesley, College junior; Barry McDaniel, Colin Campbell, Phyllis McFarland, and
Althea Owen, fine arts sophomores; Leah Ross and Don George, College freshmen.
