Chorus of Midnight Frolic Practices Hard for Beauty Show
Is a Snappy Musical Skit
"Toe, heel, toe, kick!"

Not a Word Is Spoken in Unique Entertainment to Be Given At Beauty Ball
It is the mammoth Beauty Chorus practicing for the musical midnight frolic, "Not A Word!" which is to be given in Robinson Gymnasium, Friday night, as a feature of the Jayhawker Beauty Ball. Rehearsals were begun last week, and have been held daily. There will be a rehearsal tomorrow night at 7:15 o'clock, and another Friday afternoon. Then the production will be ready for presentation.
"Not A Word!" is all the name implies. There is not a spoken word in the show. It is all singing and dancing. Upperclassmen who have seen the skit in rehearsal say that no twelve vocals were used by Mormon Oracles. The choruses of the popular songs in the production are printed in the programs.
A student orchestra of six pieces, led by "Chuck" Shefallat at the piano, will play. Other members are, violins, Cyril Palmer, Cliff Kirkpatrici; cornet, Harold Lyle; trombone, Andrew Delaney; drums, Willard Pierce.
Following are the members of the cast: Marie Buchanan, Fritz Schnitzler, Helen Clark, "Brick" Chandler, Mark Waggoner, Etta Poland, Marvin Clark, David Kirk, Karl Clark, Lucie Elmore, Karl Brown, Helen Cooke, Hester Jacken

Candy being composed principally of sugar, chocolate and nuts, is very high in food value. The Food Administration realizes this, and does not ask people to stop eating candy. Instead it simply requests a wise selection of the kinds of candies eaten, buying only those that contain the least sugar such as dipped meat meats, marshmallows, jellies, nut candies, etc. We make "Hoover-approved" candies -ask for them.-Wiedemann's.-Adv.
