FAIRFAX NISBET, TV edi-
tor for the Dallas Morning News,
entertained approximately 125
TCOC candidates, Theta Sigs
and guests with an expressive
resume of her life in the amuse-
ments field of journalism.
Raising her eyebrows, rubbing
the lapels of her suit and
fingering her big beads, Miss

University Day May Include
Entertainment by Four Preps
The Four Preps, a singing group
popular with college audiences,
may join the tentative outline of
events scheduled for University
Day May 8, USNT President Ray
Williamson told the Presidents'
Council Wednesday.
The entertainers would appear
in the Main Auditorium that night.
Early plans are to charge $1.25 per
person, Williamson said, since the
quartet would require u guarantee
of $2,<100 to perform here. Because
the Main Auditorium holds only
2,0(50 persons, the administration
will be asked to underwrite the
guarantee.
The Preps have recorded such
hit songs us "Twenty-Six Miles"
and "Down by the Station." Their
latest album is "The Four Preps
on Campus," made during rumpus
appearances.
A carnival proposed for U - Day
would be located on the practice
field, Williamson told organisation
presidents. It would consist of
booths arranged In a horseshoe
shape and operated by various
clubs and fraternities.
Letters will go to the organiza-
tions to determine the space re-
quired and the kind of booth each
will sponsor.
The council recommended that
the booths charge 10 cents, but
the final decision rests with the
Student Senate and the administra-
tion.
A controversy arose over wheth-
er the organization should keep the
profits of its booth.
"If they can make a little money,
it will encourage the organization
to participate," John Tuylor, pres-
ident of the Young Republicans,
said.
"The thought behind the carni-
val should not lie profit," countered
Erin Bulger, representative of the
Panhellenic Council.
Dan White, chairman of the sen-
ate's U-Day committee, recom-
mended that the carnival sell stand-
ardized tickets so that the booths

With Feathers??

ly doesn't know her chicken.
In the cafeteria line, she
asked the meat server, "Is that
chicken?"
"Yes."
"I would like a hip, please."
wouldn't have to make change, "A
presale of tickets would also build
up spirit for the carnival," he add-
ed.
Although some presidents felt
that this would hinder the carni-
val's progress since students would
have to wait in line at a central
place to buy their tickets, the coun-
cil approved the recommendation.
As on the past two celebrations,
a speech is scheduled for !• a.m. on
U-Day.
None of the agenda will be defi-
nite until it is approved by Presi-
dent J. C. Matthews.
The Presidents' Council, formed
this spring, originated the idea for
the carnival and entertainment at
U-Day, which has formerly been
marked only by a speech in the
morning and dismissal of classes
for part of the day.
Williamson said he hopes the
carnival can become a tradition at
North Texas.
"Mason diction," told about her
three appearances on national
network TV shows.
in her part in "Saints and Sin-
ners" she had "three big, fat
lines," she said, and got $275 -
"tine pay for a day's work." But
when one of the stars of "Route
•HI" came down with hepatitis,
Miss Xisbet bad to take pre-
ventive shots. Then she hud to
pay fees to the Screen Actors
Guild and "wound up with a fust
$1.70."
SHE COMPARED television to
a supermarket, saying that peo-
ple cun choose what they wunt
from a wide variety. And if they
don't like u program, they can
turn it off, she said. Criticizing
the attitude of those who want
to do away with everything they
don't like, Miss Nisbet remarked,
"Sauerkraut may make you sick,
but there are people who like it,
so you can't take it. off the
shelves."
She admitted that "television
is very faulty," but pointed out
that it is "only 10 years old"
and is already "a vital part of
many people's lives" and "a vi-
tal arm of pontics."

"The cadets will see the practical

night's recital.
This summer the Waco student ]
plans to study at the Connecticut
School of Dance, n modern dance
institution in New London, Conn, j
Miss Shuford hopes to travel i
through Europe during the vara- j
lion months with an American Stu-
dent Information Service tour, hut
her alternate plan is to apply for
a dance scholarship to study in
Steamboat Springs, Colo.
Although Mrs. lawson and Miss
Shuford hope to continue their
dance training, another of the
choreographers, Emily Pigman of
Dallas, is leaning toward a career
as a computer programmer.
But Miss Pigman finds a challenge
in modern dance and prefers mod-
ern jar.* to other forms. She ar-
ranged "Jazz-Birth and Rebirth"
for a recital in 1961, and the num-
ber has been borrowed by the Mod-
ern Dance Club for its program.
In arranging the program for
tonight's recital, the choreograph-
ers said that in some cases they
were given an idea—without mu
sic. After a dance had been built
around the theme of "This Hal
lowed Ground," the music and
group choreography were fitted to-
gether.
