Tozzi, Concert Orchestra on Culture Schedule
The season's final Concert Course attraction, a Little Symphony Orchestra concert and a staged reading of the Original Play contest winner head this week's cultural activity.
Giorgio Tozzi, bass-baritone, will appear at 8:20 p.m. tonight in the University Theatre as the final Concert Course attraction.
Since 1955 when Mr. Tozzi made his Metropolitan Opera debut in the role of Alvise in Ponchielli's "La Gioconda," he has risen to international fame in his category.
Man Rescues Dog; Then Heroically Vanishes
An amorous male boxer succumbed to the call of spring recently and attacked a petite cocker spaniel. The boxer lost its prey though, thanks to the aid of an unknown college student.
The student saved Sunny, the blonde cocker, from the attacking boxer after the beast started mauling its smaller prey near the flower bed across from Green Hall.
Mrs. Nola Ring, wife of an instructor of engineering drawing, was walking Sunny on a leash when the boxer charged across the street and started the ruckus.
"The boxer was frothing at the mouth and he jumped on Sunny and knocked her to the ground." Mrs. Ring said. "I tried to pull
them apart, but the leash broke and I couldn't do anything. He was mauling Sunny all over."
The student came into the picture at this time as he ran over, grabbed the boxer by the collar and allowed Mrs. Ring to retrieve her pet.
Mrs. Ring reports that she then picked up her dog and ran. "After I had gotten some distance away, I remembered I hadn't thanked the young man. I feel terrible about it," she stated.
To find the young hero, Mrs. Ring placed an ad in the Kansan. Sunny visited the veterinarian following the attack and, after a bath, was found to have no ill effects and is recuperating at home.
