No Chrons Next Week Due to Triads Vol. 42, No, 5 Pasadena City College, Pasadena, California PCC vs. Ventura Tomorrow Night Rose Bowl October 15, 1947 English Film To Depict Handel's Life By Ethel Myers Monday, October 27, at 4:00 and at 7:30, the technicolor film, The Great Mr. Handel, will be presented in Sexson Auditorium. Myra Hess, the pianist, will play Beethoven’s Appassionata. Tick¬ ets are 25 cents each. English and German Councils are collaborating to present this “great musical ^core” filmed in technicolor. Funds raised by this movie will enable these depart¬ ments to carry on department ac¬ tivities and to provide scholar¬ ships. The Great Mr. Handel is an outstanding production of Eng¬ lish Films, Inc. Wilfred Lawson stars as the great composer, Handel. Elizabeth Allen co-stars with him as Mrs. Cibber, his love¬ ly, charming friend. The Messiah is one of the high points of The Great Mr. Handel. This movie is a concert as well as a fascinating film. The hard¬ ships, triumphs, and the dramat¬ ic career of Handel are brought to the screen with his great musi¬ cal works played by the London Philharmonic Orchestra. This fine film combines the “music of the angels” with “breathless color” and becomes a treat to the eye — a joy to the ear — a delight to the mind.

Cordelius, PCC language teacher, was named “Man of the Week” by Sam Hayes, veteran west coast news-caster during his Breakfast News program, Saturday, October 11. Hayes, who was guest speaker at PCC’s an¬ nual Red and White luncheon last year, bestowed the honor on Mr. Cordelius in recognition of his efforts in sending aid to an entire community in southern Hungary. Cordelius has sent more than 400 packages to Hungary since the undertaking of his project in December, 1945. At first he sent relief bundles only to his family, but then, as he heard of other families in distress, he under¬ took to send aid to them also. His list grew until he was send¬ ing packages to the entire com¬ munity of Szabadi, Hungary. At present he is sending aid to a total of forty-seven families. Cordelius has not had to do all the work by himself, however. The Lutheran Church of Alham¬ bra has been sending bundles, and friends have been giving him a great deal of assistance. The PCC faculty ha6 helped, too. Last year, PCC held a drive to raise money for the project.
