Gloves Regn Former Place In Wardrobes Ever since last year when some bright young designer started sewing up gloves in a new and unthought of, way, gloves have taken on a person- ality of their own. This fall when the winter collec- tions came out of Paris, all the de- signers featured gloves with their suits, coats and evening dresses. Most striking were the elbow and even shoulder length evening gloves. These gloves either match or are contrasted Malmros, '42, with Anthony Koechal, '42; Betty Lou Withers, '41Ed, with Jack Barry, '41Ed; and June de Cor- dova, '40, with Carl Viehe, '39. 1940 j4Ho~p Will Feature Dorsey's Band Campus Ready To Shout, Welcome To Celebrated Rhythmic Trombonist (Continued from Page 1) before her radio work, ,she sang vlth Frankie Master's orchestra. Playing without intermission from 10 p.m. to 3 a.m., the two bands will alternate at half hour intervals. Along with the announcement of the one orchestra comes the further announcement by Don Wirtchafter, '41, publicity chairman, of a new type of ticket which will be useld this year for the first time. Attached to the ticket will be two coupons, the first to be detached at the door as a ticket of admission. The second coupon will be detached next for the favor at a favor booth to be situated in the lobby. This change in style of ticket was designed in the first place to eliminate' people coming to Assistant Dean Walter B. Rea after the dance to ask for thet ticketaasra souvenir; and in she sec- ond place to eliminate crowding at the door as the favors are passed out. Other plans for the dance are rap- idly reaching a conclusion, lfarwood averred. According to Hardy, music chairman; the second band will be announced as soon as a contract has been signed.

The height of "umph", or something are the long flashing se- quins for glittering occasions. Ap- parently the designers believe in the old proverb "a bird in hand is worth two in the bush," for now there are feather gloves. Fur on gloves either for decoration or for utility are featured with coats and suits this winter. There are half-breed gloves of black Persian lamb and cedar colored swede palms, and gloves of green swede with black lapin pompons, or raspberry swede ones with silver fox balls.

Robert Corrigan Denies He Is Rival Of 'Wrong Way' Aviator Future Career 1o IncludeI Teachin g, Professional Scenic Design Work Robert Corrigan, Grad., will never be called "Wrong Way" if he can help it, for unlike the now famous aviator of the same name he has his future all planned. Corrigan plans to teach scenic de- sign in some college or university, and then after gaining a sufficient amount of experience do professional stage designing. Now employed by the League to de- sign Children's Theatre, JGP, French Play and Spanish Play scenery, Cor- rigan was not always so sure of his goal in life. Starting school as a pre-med, Corrigan vas, to use his own phrase "not very happy about it." He soon realized that it was the theatre that he was really interested in, enrolled in a stage-craft course -and has spent all of his time on it ever since. At one stage of his undergraduate career, Corrigan took part in Play Production presentations. He ap- peared in "High Tor," "This Proud Pilgrimage," "Daughters of Atreus" and "Arms and the Man." Corrigan design., constructs and paints scenery. When assigned a play, he first reads the script and follows the necessary general require- ments. He always works for a cen- tral theme in the scenery, one which will be in keeping with the play and tie the scenery together into unity. Now at work on the coming Chil- dren's Theatre musical, "Dick Whit- tington and His Cat," Corrigan is designing and executing six different sets for indoor and outdoor scenes. In this play he achieves scenic unity by having portals on either side of the stage in every scene. Another factor which will bind the scenes together is the" heavy old English beam work which will-be included in all the sets. Working with Corrigan on Chil- dren's Theatre scenery are nearly a dozen members of the Theatre Arts Committee. Says Corrigan of his female assistants, "They're not afraid to dig in and work." Women! Help Needed! No Costumes; No Play Women, women, women - any number of you are needed by the Children's Theatre costume commit- tee! Featured in the coming Children's Theatre presentation will be over 150 Ann Arbor children and they all need costumes. The committee will be at work in the costume room every afternoon and evening till the play opens. The play, which will be a musical entitled "Dick Whittington and His' Cat," will open at 3:45 p.m. Friday at the Lydia Mendelssohn Theatre.
