Top Performances Head Greek Sing
By Willis Henson
The four top winners of this year's Greek Week Sing, held Saturday in Hoch Auditorium utilized showmanship as well as voice harmony to demonstrate that they were best in their various divisions.
FORTY-FIVE women from Gamma Phi Beta sorority sang "Thumbelina" and "Gamma Phi Man" and took home the first place trophy in the large women's class.
In the large men's division, Sigma Alpha Epsilon placed first singing two spiritual songs "Sit Down Servant" and "The Gate of Heaven."
Trophies were awarded in four divisions: large men, small men, large women, and small women. One to 12 persons constituted a small group and any number over 13 was a large group.
Twelve men representatives from Delta Tau Delta, singing "Round About A Wood," and "Sing by the Fire," took first place in the small men's competition.
LAST YEAR'S winner in the same class, Alpha Phi, this year settled for the second place trophy.
Delta Delta Delta emerged first-place winner in the small women's class. They sang "Sweet Day," and "Lullaby of Birdland."
Beta Theta Phi fraternity, which won a scholarship trophy Friday night came out second in the small men's class.
HONORABLE MENTION in the large women's class went to Sigma Chi and to Alpha Omicron FI in the small women's class.
Sigma Chi fraternity received honorable mention as a large men' group and Theta Chi as a small men' group.
This year's master of ceremonies, for the second year, Eugene Boomer, Kansas City senior, was particularly unique in his role between the Phi Gamma Delta fraternity and Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority performance when he appeared on stage and watered a plant on the stage.
BOOMER'S MAIN task, however was to give interesting facts about each house before their appearance
Boomer jokingly said that such a stipulation was in his contract.
Only a piano was used in some of the skits, though bongo drums were permissible, according to Robert Herchert, Webster Groves, Mo., sophomore, and co-chairman of the Sing.
After intermission, large men's groups alternated with small women's groups,the tempo of the songs picked up,and competition was quite stiffer.

Two old rivals put away their differences to entertain about 1,000 persons at the Greek Week Dance Saturday night in the Union Ballroom.
The star of the show was Bobby Vee, vocalist and recorder of "The Night Has a Thousand Eyes." "Rubber Ball," "Run to Him," "Devil or Angel," and "Walking With My Angel."
In an interview after their first performance, Bobby Vee said, "Miron and I used to be rivals."
He was accompanied by Miron Lee and the Caddies, a five-piece band which has appeared with Brenda Lee, Chubby Checker, and Johnny Cash.
Vee said he is from North Dakota and Lee is from South Dakota. They used to compete during their high school days for top spots at local dances.

Entertainers Forget Differences at Dance
A rose is a rose but is a diamond a diamond?
The 19-year-old singer has two young brothers who are also in music.
It's easy to pick a perfect rose. Diamonds take a lot more knowing. Let an expert help you choose. Our knowledge of gems has earned us a coveted membership in the American Gem Society. Choosing a diamond can be a pleasurable experience...like falling in love...or picking a rose! Come in and see.
This was his first stop in Kansas. He appeared in Topeka Friday night.
Otherwise, he said his future plans are to keep recording.

"We don't know what kind of music you like here," he said. But he wasted little time finding out and was called for an encore after his first performance. He pointed out that he worked under somewhat of a handicap because of his infrequent appearances with this band.
Vee emerged the winner in 1959 when he was spotted by Liberty Records and taken to Minnesota to record "Susie Baby."

"It was a local hit," Vee said, and added that he had written that song as well as many of his others.

He came here on short notice and quickly teamed with Lee for one of their rare appearances together since their high school days.
ON THE HILL

Vee also likes to go swimming in Los Angeles, where he is currently studying dramatics.
He said he hopes to someday play in a movie and that the study of dramatics will better qualify him.
1. With graduation coming up, looks like we'll have to start thinking about the future.
My philosophy is to live from day to day.
3. Hardly likely, since 93 per cent of all men and women get married.
Is that so?
2. That's fine when you have no responsibilities. But chances are you'll have a wife to think about soon.
I may just decide to lead the bachelor life.
4. Yes, indeed. What's more, you'll have children to consider.
Maybe we won't have any.
5. I doubt that - after all, 90 per cent of the women who get married today have children. And, on the average, they have all their children before they're 27.
All my life I've shirked responsibility. Have a ball,
enjoy yourself—that's my motto. Now, in two minutes,
you've given me a wife and
who knows how many children to take care of. What should I do? Where do I begin?
6. First relax. Then look into some good insurance... Like Living Insurance from Equitable. It gives the kind of protection every family should have. Helps you save for the future, too.
And don't worry—your chances for a happy family life are very good.
I should never have roomed with a statistics major.
