Alpha Psi Omega
Honors Students
On November first at 8:00 P. M.,
the annual initiation of Gamma
Kappa Cast of Alpha Psi Omega
will be presented to faculty and
alumni members of this national,
honorary, dramatic fraternity.
Three students will receive this
high honor. They are Miss Yvonne
Davis, Mr. Joseph Spence, and Miss
Therese Malinowski. The initiation
will be conducted by Mrs. Robert
Johnson, of Erie, Director of Gam­
ma Kappa Cast.
In the past fifteen years only 83
students have received this honor
at Edinboro, an honor which places
them in the ranks of the largest
national honorary fraternity on
this continent.
Membership in Alpha Psi Omega
represents the earning of at least
fifty points in the art of the theat­
re, a high scholastic average, and
a strong spirit of co-operation in
campus activities. The require­
ments arc so difficult that only
five Edinboro students
have

Nancy Ness To Feature
First Concert Program
Norway, Home Of Dramatic Soprano
From Norway, land of the fjords
of Edvard Grieg, have come many
great atrists. One of the greatest
of these is Nancy Ness, dramatic
soprano, who is to appear here on
Tuesday, October 28, as the open­
ing number of’ the Concert Series
booked for this season. Students
will be admitted to these concerts
by showing their student-activity
tickets.
Born in Bergen, Norway, near
the house in which Edvard Grieg
was born, Miss Ness began her
singing career at the age of six.
Her father died when she was
seven, and the familj' had many
struggles with poverty. Miss Ness
toured Norway, Sweden, and Den­
mark for the Salvation Army be­
fore she was seventeen. Singing
in fine concert halls, singing in
whatever the poorest districts af­
forded, she dramatically achieved
great success after beginning her
career as a Salvation Army lassie.'
With modesty and determination
and a striking physical beauty,
Nancy Ness has echieved an en­
viable place in the musical circles
of the world. She made her debut
in Oslo, and has sung with great
success all over Europe. She often
visited the Grieg family at Trokaugen and has sung at the piano

Edinboro Tosses
Game To Alliance
At 2:30 last Saturday Edinboro’s
Red Raiders lined up on their
home grounds to suffer their third
defeat of this season in as many
starts. Due to the lack of some­
thing, they were completely out­
played for the second time this
year. Alliance bounced back after
a 42-0 defeat at the hands of Canisius College to defeat the “Big
Red”, 20-0.
The weather was ideal and a
large crowd was present, as this
was the homecoming game. Alumni
were well represented.
