Others who assisted at the function were Misses Jeanette Bjork, Eleanor Bor-chert, Judith Njaa and Agnes Bothen. coed capers By Jean Ostby COBBER COEDS HAVE been rushing from teas to ban-quets to art exhibits in such rapid succession that they have scarcely had time to sleep, much less do anything out of the ordi-nary. In fact a few of the fresh-men found themselves under such a strain that they neglected their coiffures and facial grooming, and for two days the whole cam-pus saw red. THESE FADS RECENTLY blossomed out on college cam-puses: California co-eds appeared in Chinese coolie straw hats and dickies, leading to the suggestion that Louisiana State university girls try frayed pickaninny straw hats. Vassar girls went on a hair-dressing rampage which led to wearing bangs and harlequin glasses. A student at Wellesley borrow-ed a milkman's suit and wore it for study during exam week. Now the girls can't study with-out their overalls. Smith college girls have been captured by the craze for red flannel shirts and faded blue jeans. FEMININE ORIGINALITY on our campus finds expression in fantastic necklaces. For in-stance, Clarice Paulson made one of shellacked pecan nuts. Rose Hahn strung matches on a chain to light up her sports dresses. Here is a field where anything goes. You have a nightmare and next morning you make a neck-lace. Cobber Reviewers Term Band 'Noteworthy' Below are excerpts from reviews by Monday's band concert at Moorhead high school. Both were written by Concordia students. Evelyn Bjorge (In the Moorhead Daily News) — "A noteworthy suc-cess" was the verdict of the audience which applauded the performance of the Concordia college concert band at the Moorhead high school auditorium Monday. Directed by J. A. Holvik, the group played its first home con-cert since its 1935 Norway tour. The program rouged from Bach to Sibelius. The warm and color-ful overture to "Zampa" keyed the listeners' mood to expecta-tion. For some the serenity ex-pressed In the Bach choral "Jesa, Joy of Man's Desiring," was the most satisfying part of the even-ing. The brilliancy and sparkle of the concert trio cornets, "Triplets of the Finest" by Henneberg, with Martin Eidbo, LaVaughn Skatrud and Ru-dolph Skogerboe as soloists contrast-ed with the smooth rhythm of von Weber's concert waltz, "Invitation to the Dance." Here the baritone solo played by Waldo Lyden was a high spot. Willmar Thorkelson (In the Fargo Forum) — Many said.the band has lost none of its vigor, that the musici-anship of the present personnel is on par, if not superior, to the European tour group. • Prof. J. A. Holvik, who has con- M: .v ducted the Concordia band since 1936, was admittedly pleased, saying thia band "was at its best" Nearly 500 persons found variety in the program which ranged from the difficult "Finale" of Tschaikow-sky's "Symphony No. 4" to four stir-ring marches, played as extra num-bers. The vivid Interpretation of "Flnlandla," a tone poem by Si-ll ua, and "Invitation to the Dance" merited especial com-mendation. From the band's personnel of 55 students, Professor Holvik will lose six by graduation. They are How-ard Johnshoy, Clayton Gunheim, Har-ris Christianson, Harris Uen, Martin Eidbo and Orville Onstad.
