At least 15 inches of new snow prevails in the entire bowl area and this alone should provide the desired conditions for excellent movies for those taking' their camera equipment. The Behrends trophy race will be held at 1:30 p.m. Sunday and will be open to any woman or girl skier wishing to participate. The race will consist of a combined downhill and slalom course which will not be difficult, but should provide an ample test of ski ability. These courses will be laid near the &ki 1ift in order to provide the neces- sary transportation for the con- testants offering an excellent means of practice before the event. In addition to the Behrends tro- phy race, the silver and gold medal courses will be open to any skiers wishing to try their skill on these time events. All trophies and med- als will be awarded to the winners at the annual Ski Club banquet to Music by be held in April. —— thop e ea e ur v+ and Orchestra Dancing 10 o 1 1 (Invitational) & Masonie Temple & Saturday | February 21 04 Blomgren Bullding. ady | —— ] LOLA’S BEAUTY SHOP Will be closed until March 10, 1942. —adv.
