Class In Organ To Be Added Cirricula The college music department will add a class in organ to its curricula, due to the many requests for a class of that type following the organ concert given in Ashurst auditorium recently by Dr. Nield, representative of the Hammond Organ company. “ Because of its low price," stated Dr. Ardrey, “ and its flexibility in duplicating the pipe organ, the Hammond organ is without doubt the instrument of the future. The price is low enough and the instrument is small enough to be used for home use, yet it has power enough for use in a large cathedral.” If possible, a graduate in pipe organ will be obtained to teach the class which ,it is expected, will be started on February 1. If the pipe organ graduate is obtained, Flagstaff will be the only school in the state having a graduate organist teaching the class.

(A C P )— Do you spend most of your leisure time in listening to the radio, reading newspapers, attending movies, and playing bridge? If so, you have fallen into the typical American rut of leisure time activity. This conclusion was reached by Dr. Paul A. Witty, professor of education at Northwestern University, as the result of an eight year survey. These four activities, along with motoring and attending parties, are the favorite pastimes of adult America. Children, says Dr. Witty, spend far more time participating in active games than adults. The amount of time devoted to sports diminishes speedily as the child grows older. NOTICE There will be an important meeting of Pi Kappa Epsilon at 7 p. m. next Thursday in the mu-sic room of the main building. All members are urged to be present See the “Phantom.” Numbers Are Voted For Publication By Pine Knots Group At the last meeting of Pine Knots, which was held at Dr. Hill’s home, final plans were made for the annual banquet which will be held at the Hotel Monte Vista Thursday night at 7.

Mars Hill To Be Site Of First All College Snow Frolic Of Year Hikers Call Off Snow Outing; Too Much Snow At Hill Due to heavy snows the Hiking club postponed their snow party planned for Saturday. Although snow is the essential part o f an outing o f this sort it snowed so deep that without two or three nights of low temperature it would be too soft. Another reason for the postponement was that the fiarty was to be held at the ski jump and the road is blocked to there. Some of the members of the Hiking club, when news of the calling o ff of the regular party came, formed parties of their own and began working on a toboggan slide on nearby Mars hill. As soon as the road is cleared and the snow is frozen hard enough at the ski jump the party will be held as planned. On interviewing several members o f the club the date set for it will probably be next Saturday. Lit Club Banquet Is Scheduled For Next Thurs. Night At a Pine Knots banquet to be held at the Monte Vista hotel on Thursday night at 7, Dr. Portnoff and Mary G. Boyer, local authors, will be honored. Dr. and Mrs. Tormey will be guests of honor, with Dr. Mary Hill, sponsor of the organization. Plans for the banquet are being made by Mary De Mario, who ii in charge of the food.

Rigby will furnish music for entertainment. NOTICE There will be a meeting for all seniors who expect to teach next year, Thursday, Janaary 14, in Room 28, Main building, at 4 p. m.

When this picture was first produced, it played as a road- show attraction at advanced prices. This feature will be preceded by a short subject. The shqw starts promptly at 7 p. m., and the price, as usual, is 10 cents. ASSEMBLY IS FEATURED BY ASTC ALUMNI Mr. And Mrs. McFate Feted, Student Talent Added r To Bill The first assembly of the new year was opened last Wednesday with a program in charge of Mrs. Catherine Beckwith, head resident of Campbell hall, girls’ dormitory. Owing to Mrs. Beckwith’s illness, Mr. Deaver took charge of the announcing. First number on the program was a violin solo by Miss Levinia Righy, accompanied by her sister, Miss Mary L. Rigby, at the piaho. These two students have generously given of their talents at other recent assemblies and are enthusiastically received by the Student body? Mrs. Yale McFate, nee Helen Copeland, an alumni of A. S. T. C., again gave the students a rare treat when she sang in her usual gracious manner two numbers, “ I Hear You Calling Me," and “ You In Your Gondola.” She is possessed of a voice of exceptional quality. “ It is lovely,” commented Mr. Deaver. She was accompanied by Miss Jeanne Larson. Yale McFate, also an alumnus of A. S. T. C., gave a talk on “ Some- Unusual Legal Cases in Law.” “ Stay on your own side of the fence if you would keep out of neighbor controversies and legal complications resulting there from,” he cautioned. “ Sentimentality for a 14 year old horse, blind in one eye, and ‘skin you wouldn’t love to touch,’ is not compensatory to the owner in the case of the death of said horse by officers of the law for board bill o f said horse during its sojourn in city pound for alleged depredations to shrubbery and flower gardens of the citizenry.” Debate Called Off; Date To Be Set Soon The debate which was to be held Thursday night, January 7, 1937, was postponed due to heavy snow and the epidemic of colds. The affirmative of the question “ Resolved, that Congress should be empowered to fix maximum hours and minimum wages in industry,” will be taken by Alfred Smith and Edward Engelbrecht, negative by Florence Duggan and Bruce Gour-ley. T he debate will be held at a future date to be announced soon. Enter an act in the Pi Kap Vaudeville. Student Council Will Provide Eats And Entertainment For Affair F IX S l T l D E S Ski Tracks, Sled Runs And Ice Skating Facilities Are Probable Plans for a winter sports carnival to be held on Mars Hill next Sunday afternoon were drawn at a meeting jof the Student Council held in student body office o f th« main building last night. The party Is to be an all»college affair, open to students only. According to present plans, the students will leave the campus at 2:30 in the afternoon and start the sports on Mars Hill on arrival. John Ricca, Student President, in a statement last night, said, “ If possible, we will have horse drawn sleighs transport the students to and from the college, the sleighs will also be used for the entertainment of students who do not wish to take part in the regular sports.” At the same meeting. Henry Cordes and the male members of the Hiking club were named as a committee to build sled and ski tracks for the use o f the students. They will start work Saturday on the runs which should be completed in time for the event. It was also decided „tp serve hot drinks and refreshments to the students in the evening. For the comfort of the participants, fires will be built near the hill. John White was appointed to take care of the refreshments. If plans for the construction of an ice rink on the campus go through, skating may be enjoyed in the morning. However, It is doubtful if such plans can be carried through. In order that there be equipment for all, Ricca is urging all students, campus or uptown, to gather all winter sports equipment they can find. The event, talked about for a number of years, but made impossible by the lack of snow, was made possible through the eifforts o f Ricca and Bill Manes, social manager. If the party planned for Sunday is a success, it is probable that many more of a similar nature will be held during the winter.

Henry Cordes and the male members of the Hiking club were named as a committee to build sled and ski tracks for the use o f the students. They will start work Saturday on the runs which should be completed in time for the event. It was also decided „tp serve hot drinks and refreshments to the students in the evening. For the comfort of the participants, fires will be built near the hill. John White was appointed to take care of the refreshments. If plans for the construction of an ice rink on the campus go through, skating may be enjoyed in the morning. However, It is doubtful if such plans can be carried through. In order that there be equipment for all, Ricca is urging all students, campus or uptown, to gather all winter sports equipment they can find. The event, talked about for a number of years, but made impossible by the lack of snow, was made possible through the eifforts o f Ricca and Bill Manes, social manager. If the party planned for Sunday is a success, it is probable that many more of a similar nature will be held during the winter.
