Portfolio presented, lastFriday night, “Ragamuffin Road,’’books and lyrics by Edith Heal dec¬orations by Elizabeth Hyman; musicby Betty Williams, Lucy Woodworthand others. The occasion was, in mostrespects, a thumping success with anenthusiastic audience clamoring formore and more. And the triumph of“Ragamuffin Road” was due, I think,first of all to the informal spirit ofthe entertainers. One missed thatovertone of nervous apprehension onj which is so apt to ruin even a pro¬fessional first night. Miss Heal cameout and was very naturally the naivelittle girl Roseanne; the Misses Gard¬ner and Tepper, a couple of lovelycats having the time of their eighteenlives; the Miss Marguerite Nel¬son, a swaggering urchin, quite frank¬ly disillusioned and from Missouri;and so on down the list of a long castthat seemed to be hell-bent for a goodtime. And because everybody wasenjoying herself so, the tone of theperformance was spontatiteons andeven when the audience laughed atinstead of it with it was very good-natured.The hook of “Ragamuffin Road,”although lacking in substance, made anadequate framework for ttie proceed-(Continued on page 4) “because it has greatffice attraction powers, and be¬cause it bears a direct relationship tothe play.”Music competition for “So Long,Susan” begins today and the lyricsfor the show may he obtained at thePsi Upsilon house from Bester Trice,or at the Daily Maroon office fromLeslie River, Robert Poliak, JackOppenheim or Don Lockett. “Wewish the composers to use the lyricswritten by the authors,” said Hamil¬ton Coleman, producer of the play,"because unless the specialties sub¬mitted are of special excellence music‘VtH'Ieh Tot the lyrii s by the authorsof ‘So Long, Susan,’ will he givenpriority.”The scores will be chosen at themusical hearing which Will be heldTuesday, March 11. “So Long, Susan”will he outlined at the meetinFeaturing the great Cesar FranckSymphony in D minor, the ChicagoSymphony orchestra will present itsregular program under the auspicesof the University Orchestral associa¬tion today at 4:15 in Mandell halt.Conductor Frederick Stock and EricDelamarter will alternate at the desk,as Mr. Stock’s arm is still disabled.Following is the program:(Kcrtoire “Cjarnejvat?

TRY NEW SYSTEMIN JUNIOR CLASSCOUNCIL ELECTIONTake Vote Tomorrow forUndergraduate CouncilMembersProportional representation with thesingle transferable vote wilt be inau¬gurated tomorrow in the Junior classelection for representatives on theUndergraduate council, and will pre¬vail in all campus elections in thefuture.Hare system, as the plan is called,has a three-fold purpose: (1) toeliminate the disfranchisement of vot¬ers who did not vote for th* winningcandidate; (2) To eliminate the oldmethod of electing memhers-at-largeunder which each voter was allowedto cast as many votes as there weremembers to be ejected; (3) To enablethe voter to express his real will on theballott without danger of “throwinghis ;vote away.” That is, the Haresystem enables the voter to indicateon the ballot which candidate hewants his one vote to count for incase it cannot help elect the candi¬date marked as first choice.Directions to VotersPut the figure 1 opposite theof your fir-t choic; and the figiopposite the name of your secondchoice: you may tin.s express as manychoices as you wish without r^>ardto the number to b< elected.Your ballot will hr counted ^fyourfirst- :L-ei oc- '•/- Y • -Acannot help him it will be transferredto your second choice, and Jorth.Minimum Quota Tak£flfc*-The election board ascertains thequota, that is the smallest number orballots which for a certainty will se¬cure the election of a candidate.l'he number of valid ballots is di¬vided hy one more than the numbero. men to he elected. The quotient isincreased bv one, resulting in thequota necessary for election. Supposefor instance that the number of validvotes is 90 and that two candidatesare to be elected. One third of 90, isincreased by one will equal thirty-one,the minimum requirement for election.All candidates receiving thirty-onevotes are immediately elected and thelowest candidate is eliminated. Ifi In re is s surplus over thirty-one bal¬lots for a winning candidate the sur¬plus votes count for the second choiceoil the ballots. This system of trans-lerence and elimination continues un¬til the requisite number are selected.NEW CAP AND GOWNIS READY FOR PRESShinal Subscription Campaign toOpen ThursdayI his year’s Cap and Gown is nowalmost ready for press.

The Undergraduate coun¬cil, in providing for the election ofmembers to its body this Wednesday,has taken over the Hare system ofpreferential voting. Election by thismethod, if the method he retained,will place in office men and womensupported by the student majority,rather than by small groups.The Hare plan of balloting is not avisionary scheme, a political panacea.It simply places a practical means ofcontrol in the hands of tlie voters,rather than leaving the entire selec¬tion of men and women for offices,to the “bosses.” In our Council elec¬tions, it will work something likethis:There have always been at least twopolitical factions each which has*ormed about two candidates for theJunior offices, since two men are tobe elected. In a class which polls atotal vote of 150, if one faction wouldcontrol eighty votes, the two mensupported by that faction would bechosen, with a ballot of eighty perman. The other group, seventystrong, has no chance at representa¬tion. For this reason, the Councilfeels that the class as a whole, hasnever really hacked the elected men.Under the Hare system, where 150votes are cast, it requires fifty-one toelect. Since each voter can cast butone first choice ballot, th< faction ofeighty cannot alone elect Doth itscandidates. Equal distribution of itsfirst-choices would result in tortyvotes a piece; fifty-one firsts Tor oneman would give the other candidateonly thirty-nine. Therefore, in orderto elect both men, the candidate mustfind support outside their o.iglnalcombination.

BLAZZY" REVIEWERLIKES “RAGAMUFFINROAD’ PRODUCTION(Continued from page 1)ings. It concerns the disillusionmentof divers alley folk who take a lookinto the Beyond, which in this casehappens to the University. Their in¬vestigation ends in a wholesale shat¬tering of illusions until they are hadeto look through rose-colored specs-ades. when even life at college takeson a cheerful hue. This Pollyannismhas been used in musical comedy eversince the famous Hector was a littledog. It was used once more success¬fully Friday night. The lyrics wereenough to make a Blackfriars coachlike Mr. Coleman howl with jeal¬ously. They were singable and tentimes as intelligent as the averageFriars lyric.Chief honors for the score go tothe lively Miss Williams, whose tunesare snappily Kernish. Coming a closesecond is Miss Woodworth. Her“Shingle-Bob” chorus, written at thelast minute, so they tell me, was thehit of the evening. The Alpha Deltnumber, although good enough pub¬licity for the boys, missed a big chancebecause it was not staged with achorus.
