'GRANITE' OPENS HERE Public Admitted to Building for First Time on May 5 at Open Reception. One year ago today niarked the official opening of the University of Michigan League building. The first meal was served in the ball- room on May 6, 1929. Following this dinner, the Lydia Mendelssohn theatre was-formally opened with Comedy Club's initial performance of "Granite." The public was first admitted to the building on May 5 for an open reception sponsored by the officers of the Alumni council, the League officers, and the Regents of the University. The entire building was open for this occasion. It was estimated that 4,000 visitors were entertained in the afternoon, and 4,000 in the evening. :Tea Dance Held in Ballroom. During the course of the after- noon;ttea was served to the public, a tea dance was held in the ball- room, and an Orchesis dance recit- al was presented in the theatre. The Orchesis program was repeat- ed in the evening, and a formal dance given in the ballroom. Every department of the League building was set in motion by noon of May 7, including the cafeteria, dining room, library, the various lounges, and all the. rooms on the third floor. The League building was organ- ized and run as an experimental venture through the first year. The entire management was under the control of the Alumni board Sept. 1 to April 1 of this year. At that time it was turned over to the Reg- ents, who have appointed a board a governors. Addition Planned in Future. The first experimental year has1 proved that the League building is and will be a financial success. So- cially, it has been used to over-ca- pacity; the manager is frequently obliged to turn away private par- ties. With financial independence already realized, and more than I capacity use of the building indi- cated in the first year, plans for an addition on the north side will be warranted in the near future. !
