Sigma Delta C7hi Announces Revival Of Traditional Gridiron
Dance
Herbie Kay And
His Band Will
Play At Union
Admission To BL1ll Will Be
By Invitation Only; Set
Dec. 8 As Date
Revival of the traditional Gridiron
Dance, last held in the spring of 1931
in the new Publications Building, was
announced last night by officers of
Sigma Delta Chi, national professional
journalistic fraternity, following a
business meeting of the society.
Herbie Kay and his well-known
dance orchestra, direct from a long
engagement on the West Coast, have
been engaged to play for the dance.
It will be held from 9 to 12 p.m.
Saturday, Dec. 8 in the ballroom of
the Union.
In accordance with the traditional
arrangements for the dance there will
be no public sale of tickets. They may
be obtained only by invitation from
members of the active chapter of
the fraternity.
Committee Of Four
The committee in charge of general
plans for the ball includes W. Stod-
dard White, '35, president of the local
chapter, Robert S. Ruwitch, '35, E.
Jerome Pettit, '35, and Thomas H.
Kleene, '36.
At the last dance given by Sigma
Delta Chi, the famous Oil Can was
presented to the "most loquacious
lubricator" on the campus, who at
that time was adjudged to be Prof.
Waldo Abbot. Officials plan to resur-
rect the trophy from Morris Hall to
present to the current lubricator.
In past years, the oil can has been
held by Dean of Students Joseph
A. Bursley, Prof. John L. Brumm of
the journalism department, Fielding
x. Yost, director of intercollegiate
athletics, and former President Clar-
ence Cook Little.
To Present Oil Can
Comparable to the national Grid-
iron Banquet held annually in Wash-
ington, D. C., at which newspapermen
"ride" the federal administration, the
dance will include the ceremony of
presenting the oil can to the so-called
"loquacious lubricator."
Kay's orchestra is prominent
throughout the Mid-West, having ap-
peared frequently at class parties on
various university campuses in this
sector of the country. The band has
not played here since several years
ago when they furnished the music for
the annual J-Hop. Kay and his or-
chestra also played a long engage-
ment in the Blackhawk Cafe in Chi-
cago's Loop two years ago.
Committeemen stated last night'
that a complete list of patrons and
patronesses for the dance will be an-
niounced within the next few days
Tickets will be sold at $2 per couple.
