Since the Sweetheart Ball is one of the outstanding events of the year it gave the Nor-thern students an opportunity to be on dress parade. Approximate-ly fifty five couples attended. It appeared to be one of the most successful Valentine events ever to be held on the campus, On behalf of the student body, the EXPONENT takes this oppor-tunity to express our appreciation to the Student Council who made the ball possible.

Mr. Kaufman recently rediscov-ered, at Brussels, the first edi-tion of the eight lost violin con-certos by the 17th century Ital-ian composer, Antonio Vivaldi. His interest in the search grew af-ter he had recorded four known concerbos of a group, which are entitled "I Quattoro Stagioni."

The scholarship will be presented to some worthy high school senior who has shown out-standing ability throughout high school and who is interested in coming to Northern; but needs some financial aid, in -order to at-tend college.

WINS STATE ORATORICAL Bette Carey of Aberdeen won first place in Women's Intercol-legiate oratory at Sioux Falls last Friday with her oration entitled, "For Them—Excuses" and will re-present South Dakota at Chicago in a National Intercollegiate con-test. Miss Carey is the seventh Northern woman to represent South Dakota in the National In-tercollegiate contest in the past twenty years in this contest. The six previous winners were Evelyn Mara, Mildred Anderson, Blanche Batzer, Isabel Shannon, Vivian Neldon, and Phyllis Roberts. Miss Carey is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Jas. Carey of Aber-deen. Last year she represented Northern at the Pi Kappa Delta Debate Tournament at Peoria, Il-linois. As a human interest touch in the contest, Miss Carey had just been in an auto accident near Sioux Falls. After taking two of her injured collegues to the hos-pital, she appeared to enter the contest. Preceding her on the program was a young lady with an oration of Auto Accidents. Miss Carey won a unanimous first from all three judges. She will go to Chicago the last week of April. Other contestants were Randal Fisher who placed fourth in the men's oratory, Geraldine Robinson, Roland Loomis, and Robert Jones. WSSF Drive In Spring Several years ago, a world-wide student movement was begun to promote greater educational op-portunity throughout the world, especially in backward areas that had deficient standards and equip-ment. The movement, completely independent of governments, was yet one of the few spontaneous actions which have received UNI-TED NATIONS sponsorship. Their work has been of great value in a world in which only the desire to destroy seems to predominate. The World Student Service Fund is headed by the capable team of John Dutch and Mary Parden, who plan to start the annual drive in the spring. One of the aims of the group is to explain its duties and accomplishments; and for this they have prepared a movie and a series of talks and posters. Miss Lighthall In Minneapolis Miss Vera Lighthall, associate Professor in English, is in Minne-apolis' Eitel Hospital recovering from surgery. She was operated on Monday February 13; and was in the city a week previous to the operation. Her sister, Mrs. Mina Hurst of Fort Dodge, Iowa, is also in Minneapolis with her. All reports say that she is recov-ering quite well; we hope that she is and that she will soon be able to be up and around in good health. Pasque Soon To Be Completed The Pasque, Northern's year-book, is moving into its final sta-ges before publication. There are still some pictures that have to be taken and inserted before it will be completely made up. The staff estimates that the Pasque will be ready for distri-bution in May.
