It was our excep tiona l good for: tu ne last Tu esday even in g to hear in the c hap el one of the great str ing quartets of the world. The Zoellner Quartet, fat her, bro thers, and sist er, of Brusse ls, presen ted a rarely beautiful program of chamber mus ic; and in the memory of every music lover- and the number in P eru incr eases from year to year- the even i ng will long l inger as o ne of keen de l ight.

A particularly b eautifu l detail was the sustained sh imm e ring tone of the vio li ns in the Andante. The m0vement culmi nated in a Sche rzo and of viv id brilli a ncy, followed by the finale Allegro.
Besides the solo encore, two oth er s were give n, both of unu sual

The fir st, The rn's "Genius Lo ci," tender and slow, with a delicate flowing rythm, was alm ost the loveliest t hi ng played As a fi nal encore, the qu artet gave a s ixteenth century minuet, by Vallulutely as one. At no time was si n, ve ry charming in its crisp there anyt hing less than the per- da i ntin ess Th is encore ended a f ectio n of ba lance among the ins trum en ts, this being espec ially notabl e in the subordination of accompaniment to theme in piano passages; and the un i ty of mood in i nterpretation was comp lete. In thi s matter of interpre tat i on the quartet proved itself great ; f or it made a mixed aud i ence underst::-nd and f ee l many subt iP. thin gs.

Early in the fir st quarter Platz sco red a drop kick for Creighton. after wh ich the Peru boys allowed them only one touchdown during the quarter in sp it e of the fac t that four of th e Peru men were r emoved because of injur i es

For some people have b een spec ul ating how the Juni or- Se n ior Banq.uet can be l ess formal and more enjoyable. Some plans h ave b ee n· suggested. In a moment of generosity , th e boys mtim.ated t.h at th ey would perm it girls to ask th em for dat es, an app r opriate ar range ment for leap year. But the girls object ed the suggestion came fro m th e wrong quarter.
What is wa nted at th e banq u et is a thoro ly mixed cro wd and ther e is bu t one way to g·et i t. Let this be our sl ogan "Every boy with a gir l. at th e Junior- Seni or Banquet. " It makes no difference if dates are gotten in primeva l fas hi on or in l eap year sty l e. But we mu st have date s. Make this as mu ch a part of the banquet prog ram as the eats. Ask ear ly and avoid th e rush!
