By ART TOMKINS Guion Hall has Sported some- wierd characters in its iime, but what promises' to be one of the most entertaining of all wierd characters appears March 4 in a satirical dance revue. ) Iva Kitchell, a Junction City, Kansas, girl through the machina tions of fate, began her study of the Dance in a serious frame of mind, but one day realized how Silly dancers could look when they assumed those ethereal expressions. She has been laughing ever since and making others laugh just as heartily. The excessive, sentimental, half- baked and overdone “‘artistes’’ are the ones for whom Iva Kitchell goes gunning. She respeetjs their ability hut enjoys throwing: another light on whatever they have so seriously wrought, she says. !

Her grace, balance, timing and technical treatment approach perfection, they say; 4 , - Her program for March 4 in cludes Sonatina Rocgoco, a souped up classic; Chorus Girl; Selections from Beethoven, Schubert, and Saint-Saens done up in Kitchell style; Non-Objectivei; Growing Up; Soul in Search, a take-off on Mar tha Graham’s style; and Maizie at the “Moovies.” The final selection is called “The Tale of a Bird.” In this opus Miss Kitchell as Iva Kjitchellova por trays first the biriil and then as Ivan Kitchelloff, the hunter; The bird gets annihilated after much ridiculous carrying-on,But it should be worth seeing even though you know the poll. ,1 c . 4] 4 i'!H Wallace Hackler, ton, Texas, last night members of the Agronlc) ny S Six-foot-two Hackjler is < erans, having served; for 2 4. tstoStlwi Cotton Queen •old Hageman, McNael, Risien & Mitchell Student Senators (I By TOM CARTE!
