Ben finds that if he is going to marry Lucy, he must marry the telephone too. This one-act comedy was composed by Gian Carlo Menotti and was producted on Broad-way in 1947 along with the "The Medium" also by Menotti. The second opera is a modern a-daptation of Mozart's "The Impresar-io." The comedy situation involves an opera impresario who must at-tempt to keep two prima donnas hap-py which, according to tradition, is why impresarios die young. As Anna Russell commented, "With sopranos, the winner is the one who can sing louder and higher than the others and absolutely despises her." Margaret Hochstetter, Aberdeen junior and Kristi Vensand, Aberdeen junior, will sing the soprano leads. The male roles will be sung by Dennis Hollan, Kuhn, N. Dak. junior; Den-nis Hildebrand, Hollywood, California sophomore; and Southwick. Alyce Berggren will play the piano for the presentation. Dr. Berggren is preparing the music and stage. Mrs. C. H.

Money Designated For Building, Land Northern was appropriated $100,- 000 for the completion of Mewaldt- Jensen Hall, according to Dr. J. How-ard Kramer, President of the College. The $100,000 will be used for equipment to furnish the new build-ing, he said. Also, the legislature appropriated $90,000 to the Regents for the ac-quisition of land at Northern and South Dakota State College. The Legislature also confirmed a five per-cent salary raise. President Kramer commented that this does not mean each faculty member will re-ceive a five per-cent increase, but the overall increase of the salary will be five per-cent. Dr. Russell Brock, professor of his-tory, is chairman of the overall com-mittee for implementing the three per-cent retirement fund set up this year. President Kramer said that the Board of Regents will meet here March 29-30 to make decisions con-cerning land acquisition and salaries. "While we didn't come out as well as we had hoped to, nevertheless, the appropriations will enable us to do more with salary raises than before," stated Pres. Kramer. He said that the appropriations will enable Northern to retain faculty members as well as hire replacements and staff additions. Pres. Kramer stated that staff ad-ditions will include a fulltime Dean of Men and additions in the divisions of Language and Literature and Sc•- ence and Mathematics. Also, addition-al clerical and custodial help will be hired, he said. Varsity Tennis Program Slated All men interested in participat-ing in the varsity tennis program should report to Dr. F. R.
