Saginaw Branch
Detroit Women Contribute
To Fund For Women Of
High Scholastic Standing
The loyalty of Michigan alumni in
supporting their Alma Mater has al-
ways exceeded that of other univer-
sities and the Michigan alumnae is
not far behind
A Senior Gift Scholarship of $100
open to any woman of the class of
'35 of high scholastic standing is of-
fered by the Detroit alumnae. Any
woman with an average of B or better
for the past three years of her Uni-
versity work is eligible to apply for
this schoarship.
A gift fellowship is also offered
which carries a stipend of $500, and
is made possible through the co-
operation of the Saginaw Michigan
alumnae, who are furnishing three-
fifths of the whole award and are
therefore, privileged to name the Fel-
lowship.
The award will carry the name of
the oldest living woman graduate in
Saginaw and will be known as the
Frances Boynton-Alumnae Council
Fellowship. The Fellowship will be
given to a Michigan woman graduate
who wishes to study for an advanced
degree either at Michigan or some
other university.
Other aluipnae contributing to the
Fellowship are those from Grand
Rapids, Ann Arbor, Kalamazoo, Mon-
roe, Toledo, Philadelphia, St. Paul,
and Minneapolis. The contributions
have been so generous that the Coun-
cil will be able to offer the same fel-
lowship next year..
Information concerning both these
awards may be had at the office of the
Dean of Women. All applications
should be sent there as early as pos-
sible.

Jazz Bands

Talented Musicians
The dance orchestra of today no
longer consists of just a group of
drummers, trumpeters, and saxo-
phone players, but is made up of
musicians that are as intensely
trained as those in a symphony or-
chestra, according to Emerson Gill,
who is coming from Cleveland to play
for the Senior Ball, June 15.
Gill believes that a dance orchestra
should be capable of playing any
kind of music. It should be able to
render everything from a complicat-
ed, intricate, modern composition to
a soft, dreamy lyric.
When but 17 Gill was a member
of the Toledo Symphony orchestra,
and he maintains that many of the
dance orchestrations used today are
just as difficult to develop as the sym-
phony music. Jazz used to be a hap-
hazard affair that depended largely
upon its novelty for its popularity, he
said, but that day has. passed.
Ten years ago a violinist and ama-
teur radio operator of considerable
note, Gill was among the first orches-
tra 'conductors to recognize the pos-
sibilities and the popularity of the
radio, back in the days when radio
was looked upon by most people as
the mystery of mysteries, and when
chain broadcasting was unheard of.
Gill's earliest interest in dance or-
chestras was stimulated when he was
a freshman at Ohio State University.
It was then that he had his first op-
portunity to play with a campus or-
chestra. His fraternity brothers in
Phi Kappa Psi persuaded him to give
up his interest in electrical engi-
neering and devote his energies to
dance bands.

1. Hold Meetng
There will be a meeting of the
new House Committee at 4:15 p.m.
today at the League. It is ab-
solutely essential that every mem-
ber be present as very important
business is to be discussed.

Not so long ago gingham's place
was in the kitchen, but this fabric has
stepped out of the apron class and
into an important place in the world
of fashion. For day-time, for eve-
ning, and for beach wear, gingham is
unsurpassed. Sandals, handbags,
everything is appearing in this ubi-
quitous material in stripes, plaids,
and checks. Formals especially are
demonstrating the increasing use of
gingham.
One of the smart summer formals
seen in the shops is of gingham in a
beet-root and white plaid. It is se-
verely tailored, its lines are trim from
shoulder to toe. The neckline is
square in front, and forms a deep
V in back and is outlined with nar-
row rivers of white pique. The pique
appears also in a belt and a string of
tailored flowers across the square
of the neckline in front. This dress
,hould be very outstanding on a
dance floor crowded with daintily ruf-
fled pastel organdies and chiffons.
Another formal worthy of note is
also of gingham, in fine red, white,
and blue stripes, cut in interesting
fashion so, that the stripes slant in
various directions. The sole touch of
trimming on the dress is a wide girdle
of red and blue taffeta, and this clever
treatment saves it from being com'l-
monplace.
