Allen-Rumsey House, Alpha Chi Omega, Martha Cook, Phi Gamma Delta, Psi Upsilon and Pi Beta Phi will be the special guests. Betty Fariss, '42, of the social com- mittee of the League will be in charge of the tea while her assistants will be Betty Bailie, '42. Groups I and II of the social committee will assist in the dining room from 4 p.m. to 5 p.m. while groups III and IV will be in the living room at this time. At 5 p.m. they will exchange places for the last hour. ( All members of the social commit- tee are expected to attend the tea, Virginia Osgood, '41, chairman, said. Two unexcused absenses will drop a committee member's name from the roll. All members who cannot attend are requested to call the chairmen of their individual groups. A cordial invitation is extended to all students on campus to attend the tea whether or not they are members of the groups to whom special invita- tions were given. t Social Will Be Held By University House Members of the University House will be at home to the faculty from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. today. Mrs. Edith Barnard, social director, and the president, Helen Northrup, Grad., will receive the guests. Social chairman Mabel Jessop, '42Ed., will be in charge of the arrangements. r,. French Teas Aid Language Development Informal Student Discussion. Group Will Meet Wednesday In League Kalamazoo Room "A new step towards language de- velopment on campus," was the de- claration that Ruth L. Wendt, coun- selor of foreign languages in dormi- tories, made in describing the series of French teas for students, the sec- ond of which will be held Wednesday in the League. The purpose of the teas is to in- crease the use and knowledge of French in a conversational informal group, said Mrs. Wendt, who is in charge of arrangements for the teas. At the last tea which was held earlier this month, 55 men and women gath- ered in the Kalamazoo Room of the League and spoke only French, she Many 'Brushing Up' OnLang e Many of the students attending the afternoon social were merely brushing up on their knowledge of the language and were not taking current courses, Mrs. Wendt pointed out. Most interesting aspect of the group at the informal mixer, Mrs. Wendt thought, was that those at- tending constituted an international group. Students were represented from almost every country and all contributed their ideas in French, Mrs. Wendt stated. Student Committee In Charge Student committees took charge of introductions. Mimi Sieg, '44, and Burn Smith, Grad., assisted Mrs. Wendt in preparations for the first tea and will again serve on the com- mittee for the Wednesday French social mixer. Attendance at the teas is by invita- tion only, informed Mrs. Wendt, and those desiring to be invited may con- tact her at Stockwell Hall or call the other two chairmen before Tuesday. For refreshments at the tea a charge of 10 cents will be made, said Mrs. Wendt. Volleyball Contests To End This Week The volleyball tournament comes to a climax this week as the last con- testants in the A and B tournaments fight to decide which teams are to go to the finals. In B tournament, Mosher and Del- ta Delta Delta will play off the final match.

DAILY OFFICIAL BULLETIN Red Norvo Declares College Students The Best Dancers WAA SPORTS SCHEDULE iasketballaTournment: Monday at 5:10, Stockwell Hall III vs. Alpha Omicron Pi; Couzens I vs. Mnsher II. Tupsd at 4-in By RHODA LESHINE "College students know their tem- po and are the best dancers," de- clared orchestra leader Red Norvo, when interviewed on the sidelines of sophomore Cabaret in the League Ballroom. His fourth time playing for Ann Arbor audiences, the genial maestro was enthusiastic in his praise of the campus and thinks that the coeds are "swell." Norvo is not one to change his mind, moreover, and after being informed about the "four out of five" slogan asserted that "Michi- gan women are simply tops as com- )ared with other campuses." Norvo, like other popular band leaders, is worried about the con- tract dispute in radio between the American Society of Composers, Au- thors and Publishers (ASCAP) and the newly-formed Broadcast Music Incorporated (BMI). Hopes For Strike Settlement "I don't know who will win out," he said, "but I do hope that it will be settled in a hurry for it is putting many writers and musicians out of work.". Taking on a more serious air with the discussion of the controversy. Norvo revealed that he has been no- tified that he must play -only BMI songs on his radio programs after Dec. 15. "If I don't abide by this notifica- tion, I won't be allowed to continue broadcasting," he answered to my question as to the enforcement policy. Norvo pointed out that the qualtiy of the BMI material has been poor. "All the famous composers whose songs rule the popular air waves are signed with ASCAP, and the BMI has only ,, U 11 .1.
