ET AUDITION PREVIEW TO HEAR USC TEACHER

Hugheses Host In The Library

Wines and spints may or may not oe covered by the Dewey Decimal System, but no matter; the reference desk in the University of San Diego library served as an • entirely acceptable bar Saturday night. And while 75 guests and four student singers and Bill Green's combo made all kinds of joyful noise within that booklined hall of learning, nobody told anybody to shush. The library was a handsome if unlikely setting for the university's fourth annual President's Club reception and dinner-dance, a black-tie party honoring benefactors of the school. President and Mrs. Author Hughes were the hosts, assisted by USD deans. (Insurance man Bob Hughes speculated that the architectural plan for the lofty library would lend itself nicely to indoor tennis courts, and USD public relations woman Sara Finn thinks the balconied room would be a great place to hold an elegant benefit ball. They're right.) The program was, by tradition, mercifully free of long speeches and solemnity. It starred four young singers - two men and two women, accompani d by choral director Bob Austin - whose perfonnance ran ed from Rodgers and Hammerstein to Gilbert and Sullivan. (Let it be noted, for the record, that singers Anne King and Goldie Sinegal are stunners.) . It was a low-key party, filled with easy camaradene; an evening which left you feeling that nice things are happening up there on the hill • • •

Dr. and Mrs. Author E. Hughes were hosts at the fourth annual President's Club Dinner held at the University of San Diego Saturday evening. The black-tie event which honors major benefactors to the university was held in the James S. Copley Library. Cocktails were served from the book desk as guests gathered for an evening of elegant dining, dancing and entertainment provided by student singers. Carriage Trade caterers flamed the "Steak Diane • which was served after oysters Rockefeller. As guests enjoyed the surroundings of the book-lined grand hall, the caterers practiced their culinary arts in the art studio directly behind the library. A new bookplate, commissioned by Mrs. James S. Copley for the library which bears her late husband's name, was presented to each guest as the evening's souvenir. The etching depicts the Spanish architecture of Camino Hall with its massive wrought iron doors. Dancing to Bill Green's orchestra was the gift of President Club member, Helen Anne Bunn. Among the guests were La Jollans Dr. Anita Figueredo, Dr. William Doyle, Mr. and Mrs. Richard Weitman, Anthony Ghio, Mrs. Clarence L. Steber Dean and Mrs. Donald Weckstein, Mr. and Mrs, Robert Letts Jones and Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Finn. Attending from Rancho Santa Fe were Msgr. William D. Spain, Mr. and Mrs. John Jachym, Mr. and Mrs. Philip Crippen and Mrs. Mary Weber.

the game. The starting guards, Eddie Davis and Ron Cole, scored 14 and 13 points, respec- tively. Reserve center Steve Honz contributed 10 points. Northern Colorado trimmed San Diego's lead to three points, 67-64, with about five minutes to play. The Toreros righted themselves, howev- er, and won going away. With its victory last night, USD became 2-1 against Division I teams. The club is 6-1 at home. The Toreros' next home game will not be until Feb. 5, when they play host to Hawaii in a game to be telecast live to the islands.

USD which had dropped ·five consecu• live basketball games, ended the skein last night by topping Northern Colorado, 79-69, before 500 fans in Alcala Park. The Toreros thus improved their record to 9-5 and gave themselves a lift as they brace for a tough, four-game road trip. The team will be at UC-Irvine Saturday night and then will embar.~ on a three- game, six-day tour of Hawau next w~k. n Diego had not played at home m 3½ we ks and it was obviously delighted to be ba .

Many of the antiques in the USD parlor were legacies from the Flood and Grant mansions in San Francis- co, and if you should be reminded of the glories of the Little America Westgate, small wonder; the hotel purchased some of its treasures from the same estates.

And parquetry floors and Bac- carat crystal chandeliers can do as· much for a dinner party as a sauce bearna1se. Sometimes more. Take, for example, the three smallish parties Dr. and Mrs. Au- thor Hughes have given this week at the University of San Diego. They've all been held in the ornate French Parlor of Founders Hall, and, with parquetry underfoot and Baccarat overhead, you can't help thmking you're a pretty special per- son in a pretty special place.
