"Only One in Twenty Makes the Chorus," Says Manager; Worse Than Bryan's Sixteen to One
"Only one girl in twenty makes the chorus, and they must have long training involving hard work," said E. B. Coleman, manager of the "Henry Bunch" company now playing at the Bowersock theater.
"I am constantly on the move for new talent—real talent," said Mr Coleman, "and I often take on amateurs and train them."
Inez Marvin, prima donna with the "Honey Bunch" has travelled the long road of experience. "He's a good teacher but a hard one," she said. "The teacher or not she found it hard to graduate from the ranks of the chorus.
Just a few short years ago, Miss Marvin began her stage career in the chorus. She suffered the trials and tribulations which make stars, "The road was a tough one," she said, "but it's the only way to get anywhere. It has to be traveled. My advice to those who want a stage career is to begin at the bottom and go the top. When success comes it feels like everything besides it, never comes unless hard work and study accompany it."
The members of the profession seem to be superintracts. They have a set of "don'ts" and they are greatly dismayed when these rules are violated, as they sometimes are by new comers in the profession.
Some of the "don'ts" are, don't play "Home Sweet Home" in the dressing room; don't whisk in a box at rehearsal; don't whistle in your dressing room; don't have a
Olympics Will Decide Freshman Cap Ruling for Baseball Season
Annual Meet to Be Saturday Events Between Halves of Scrimmage
The freshman-sophomore olympics will be held Saturday afternoon on Stadium field. The outcome of this will decide whether or not the freshmen discard their fresh cap per season, or wear them again next spring.
The first event will begin at 1:30, according to Walter Farrar, school council chairman of the olympics, and it will probably be the hardest race, which will be followed by the tug-of-war.
After this the variety and fresh man football teams will tangle in their annual frame. Between the 140 and the 280 yard relay will be run and the 440 yard relay will be run.
Immediately after the final quarter of the football game the cage ball game will be called. Freshmen will occupy the west stadium where they will lead by their own cheer leader and then play on the side of the stadium where Fowler House, assistant cheerleader, will be in charge.
Coach G. B. Patrick said this morning that he had received many inquiries concerning what reference the class football games hold last Saturday morning had to do with the caps. He explains that there is no bearing on that matter. Saturday will settle the whole question.
Old Gridiron Rivals Play
Yale's football team meets Harvard's in the Yale bowl at New Haven in the 43rd annual renewal of the university classic of America, next Saturday.
Yale with an undefeated team enters the contest, as she did last year, a heavy favorite to win. Yale won from Princeton last Saturday 10-0 and the Saturday previous Harvard and the overwhelming score of 34-0.
In Cottle, Kline and Pond, Yank has three stering backfield performers and in Scott, a drophiker of rare ability. Bench and Bunnel are piloting the Ellis this year and are a beady pair of field generals.
The line Yale has captain Lovejoy at center and Lumen all-American can end from last year's championship. The team pinned on Gebrike, Hammond and Cheek, backfield men, Captain Greenough played playing for Harvard may not be able to play, because awards received in the Princeton game.
It is expected that 86,000 people will crowd into the Yale Bowl. Two years ago 87,000 saw the game which Harvard won 10-3. Last year Ducky Pond of Yale ran 75 yards for a touchdown in an exhibition scored against Harvard since 1910 when Cupid Black and his Bulldogs beat 6-3.
round top trunk; don't let the first person in the theater on a pass; don't break a stick of grease paint; don't go into the orchestra pit or play with the drummer's traps; don't rehearse with the front curtain at half mast; don't use a round table in the chair or table making chair rock during the show.
The chorus girls have a language all their own. "Don't be so Ritzie," means "cut out the highbrow stuff." In other words, come down to earth, don't be so aloof and booity. It is derived from the Ritz-Carlton.
The average person would need an interpreter in order to converse with the up-to-date chorus girl. The student should learn about chorus, however, by the girls only among themselves. When they step out of the ranks of the chorus to become pilots of the drama, then, of course, must prepare English with the Oxford accent.
Some definitions from the chorus girls' dictionary are: Upstage, Ritie; John, a male who waits at the stage door; flat tire, a tire, John who is a bore, mainly a poor sponder, sweepe, a stool, a fat tire, a fat tire or angel; most man in the world, any stage director; grandpa, the theater manager regardless of age; when my Rolls-Royes play, the ambition of every chorus girl. It is the same as the chorus girl in "The Lion King." According to Mr. Coleman, the theatrical business is very good in Kanna at the present time.

Bums of Hobo Tribe to Hunt Tiger Meet
The family shot guns, rifles, revolvers, and slings shots will get their annual workout in the big tiger hunt which will be started from the gymnasium. The pack of dogs which is the target for the tiger dogs are being fed on a resisted diet to whet their appetite for the big game.
To the individual with the best costume, and to the couple, mixed, attached, or otherwise, with the cleverer of the three, awarded the three round trip tickets.
Trot out the old eaved in derbies and motheaten swallow tails, the bell-shaped aloes and fascinators, and join the competition for the second annual Hobo Day, May 30. Three round trip fares to Missouri, free of all obligations except a guarantee to use them, will be awarded to the three meenset looking hobes, Roberts, Chef Bam of the Hobo tribe.
The Hobo trail, route, heat stops for food, time, and distance will be arranged and mapped by the chief of staff. The train will be reliable week. For the benefit of such members of the tribe who sport automobiles, two wrecking cars will accompany the party, to insure their safe return. Every man a Hobo, and every woman a Hobo-ess, and every hog a tiger-tensor.
Freshmen Plan Olympics
Captains for Different Team
Chosen at Meeting
Final plans were made for the Olympics by the men of the freshman class at a meeting in Myers hills Tuesday evening. The captains of the teams for the different events put up for the parts they are to take.
After an explanation of the events and the rules, as defensitively as they have been worked out so far, was given, the captains began enlisting possible men for their various events. The captains, as they have been appointed by Tom Myers, freshman athletic director, are "Penny" Jones, half mile relay, J. E. Ralston, tag-of-one, one who has been given charge of the pushball event, so that Myers will probably see it to.
"We are sure going to win," said Myers, "for we absolutely do not want to wear those caps next spring. As far as I can see everything is going fine and we will win if the fresh air only keep supporting their class."
