any college dance of any university.
At one time, Military Ball was held in
Barbour and Waterman gymnasiums,
and the walls were lined with booths
run by the various fraternities. There
was always some surprise enter-
tainment.
Mock Air Raid Held
One of these entertainments Was,
a mock air raid held at midnight,
with a dirigible crossing the darkened
ballroom followed by squadrons of.
planes and illuminated by search-
lights. The dirigible was arranged to
explode just before reaching the
opposite side. Another year a war
scene was lighted up above the or-
chestra-soldiers were shooting and
climbing barbed wire fences. When
the lights on the mural went out.
however, the scene turned into a tall
figure of the Goddess of Peace, seen
in luminous paint.
Another custom that marks this
military social event is the Scabbard
and Blade dinner always given pre-
iious to the dance. It is attended by
the teaching staff and student mem-
bers of the honor society and their
guests.

chase caps and gowns from 1 p.m.

speakers placed on all sides of the!
theatre, giving a three-dimensional
effect. Disney's impression of
Bach's Toccata and Fugue in D
Minor was purely abstract, being
expressed in motion and color. The
treatment keeps the listener's mind
almost entirely on the music itself.
The "Chinese Dance" from Tschai-
kowsky's "Nutcracker Suite" became
a group of very intent little mush-
tooms with large orange oriental hats
doing a serious ridiculous dance.
The "Sorcer's Apprentice" takes
the lovable Mickey Mouse into his
most colorful role, as the capricious!
apprentice, who let his master's magic
get a little beyond his control.
Stravinsky's "Rite of Spring" isG
a tremendous achievement in
bringing back to life the history of
the earth as man never knew it.
Putting a peaceful, if somewhat
anticlimactic, ending to his master-
piece, Disney found Gothic majesty
in the interlacing branches of a
forest in contrast to the horror of
"Bald Mountain." This selection
was the only one given vocal treat-
ment, and it was in this one that
the new handling of the music was
especially impressive.
As an example of what man's imag-
ination can find in more or less ab-
stract music, "Fantasia" is a superb
rroduction, and a new slant on music
that I don't think will be abandoned.
Part of the criticism really is the+
fault of the listener, for he must
learn to balance his senses of soundc
and sight so that one doesn't domin-I
ate the other.
Faculty Group To Meet1
Members of the evening drama sec-

By RHODA LESHINE
Pointing out the reputation of Ann
Arbor as a growing musical center,
Michigan is rated as the third highest
among all college campuses in the
country in classical music apprecia-
tion, according to statistics of one of
the largest national record companies.
Seven out of ten students still select
swing as their choice in records, but a
local campus record shop reports that
there is a definite trend taking the
jitterbug into the field of the classics.
The three most popular composers,
as shown by record sales, are Tchaik-
owsky, Beethoven and Brahms. Tchai-
kowsky's "First Piano Concerto, Num-
ber 1," is the most popular classical
album students purchase and his
"Romeo and Juliet Overture" leads in
second choice.
Shaw's 'Concerto' Is Popular
Artie Shaw's "Concerto For A Clar-
inet" has been given much credit in
breaking down the awe often held by
students toward concertos, a campus
survey shows.
Michigan students have been found
to be 50 per cent exclusively swing
fans, 30 per cent favor only the class-
ics and 20 per cent prove their versa-
tility by wanting a little of each-in
any form, it's music they desire whe-
ther their interest be in boogey-woog-
ey or symphony.
Glenn Miller plays a heavy favorite
in keeping his top position in a poll
of popular bands. Tommy Dorsey,
Artie Shaw and Benny Goodman are
runners-up although Shaw becomes
the cream of the bottle when he puts
out an individual hit as "Frenesi."
The Michigan man is not senti-
mental-in his choice of music. He
has more of a sense of rhythm and
generally prefers swing music in-

on the Michigan coed. She chooses
her music in a slower rhythm with
a sentimental beat.
Men base their decision in the
choice of a record on the repercus-
sion of the rhythm while the women
are more likely to concentrate on
the quality of the voice of the soloist.
Students spend twice as much from
the first to the fifth of the month
than they do a few weeks later when
the allowance has dwindled. And
winter shows better record sales than
does summer.
Michigan has reflected the de-
crease in price in classical records
with a startling greater demand for
the older works. That the Michigan
student has a sincere appreciation
of classical music, is brought out by
the fact that much of his record
library is being confined o works ofl
the composers while his swing shelf
is rapidly disappearing.
