Carnival Ruler
Chosen Among
Ten Princesses

been announced, mystery will
surround the identity of the
Chinese Carnival Empress until
Friday night when the festivi¬
ties are in full sway. She will
be chosen today from the ten
co-eds already selected by the
Mast and Dagger members as¬
sisted by Dr. John W. Harbeson,

Terminal Courses, Orient
Themes Of Vo-Mag Issue
Incorporating Terminal Courses and the Orient as themes for the
coming issue, the next Vo-Mag will make its appearance May 23.
According to Editor Jean Backus it will be an even more lavish" mag¬
azine than the last success, and
from the quick sell-out last time,
the next issue will more than
likely vanish from the desks imme¬
diately. Having won All-American
honors with the recent endeavor,
it is generally prophesied that the
coveted award will remain with
the next Vo-Mag.
English Novel
Included in the publication will
be a fascinating article on rare
English novels with illustrations
from the manuscripts written by
Robert O. Schad, curator of the
Huntington library; an interview
with Hugh Walpole “on writing,”
written by Dow Parks; and a stu¬
dent essay about the “Second Gen¬
eration of Japan.” Also, Dr. Regi¬
nald Bell of Stanford has given his
views concerning the problem of
th.e “Second Generation of Japan.”
Dr. Ichihashi replies to these arti¬
cles with his “Culture of the Jap¬
anese Orient.” Another prominent
junior college student has contri¬
buted a sparkling discussion on
Broadoaks, and its valuable train¬
ing for kindergarten teachers, and
Richard J. Neutra, a prominent ar¬
chitect, discusses the modern
school of architecture. Pictures
taken during her travels in the
Orient have been contributed to
the next issue by Mrs. Ruth Nagle
Chase, of the art department.
