Editor Reveals
New Features
For Gargoyle

If,
si gna

an autograph collector had the
ture of every celebrity who has

visited Ann Arbor his album would
be a veritable directory of the great
names in a dozen fields of endeavor.
Every year's influx of artists,
speakers, musicians adds a few more
names to an already lustrous roster.
Last year's range included great
names from Mrs. Roosevelt to actress
Diana Barrymore, from Jeff Davis,
"King of the Hoboes," to Archduke
Otto, pretender to the Austrian
throne.
Milburne Visits
Shy, quiet George Milburne drops
in now and then. Lloyd Douglas,
Carl Van Doren, Thomas Mann,
Christopher Morley, Alexander Wooll-
cott, Bertrand Russell and W. H.
Auden have lectured here. Play-
writ Sidney Kingsley, with "Dead
End" and "Men in White" to his

credit, was here last spring.
In other years Paderewski, Hefitz,
Flagstad, Galli Curci, Tibbett, Itturbi,
Menuhi have appeared.
Musicians: Which will you have,
classic or swing? The Choral Union
Series and May Festival bring the
classicists. Last year's register in-
cluded Serge Rachmaninoff, Fritz
Kreisler, Jussi Bjoring, Alexander
Kipnis, Robert Virovai, Bartlett and
Robertson, Giovanni Martinelli and
Lily Pons.
The Swing Side
On the swing side of the ledger has
appeared practically any "name"
band-slow and sweet or hot and
fast-that you care to dance to.
Tommy Dorsey and Ted Fio Rito
played for , the 1940 J-Hop. Kay
Kyser and Jimmy Dorsey played .at
the '38 Hop, Count Basie and Henry
"Hot Lips" Busse in '39. Fletcher
Henderson, Jimmy Lunceford, Jan
Savitt, Buddy Rogers, Frankie Mas-
ters-all have played for Ann Arbor
dancers.
From the Stage? Not only the
leading dramatic artists, but the
cream of designers and technicians
have annually visited Ann Arbor dur-
ing the Spring Dramatic Seasons.
Last spring's plays were "Lighted
by Feder,"-a by-line that has ap-
peared on many Broadway programs
as well as that of the 1940 New York
Writers: Most popular of Ann
Arbor's literary visitors is poet and
anthologist Louis Untermeyer, who
comes each spring to lecture on
poetry, to gab with half the campus
and to catch a few beers on the other
side of Division Street.
Statesmen and Politicians? Four
leading figures on the national scene
have attended the University. They
are Thomas E. Dewey, Frank Murphy,
Arthur H. Vandenberg and Burton
K. Wheeler. Czechoslovakia's Eduard
Benes spoke here. Paul Van Zeeland,
former premier of Belgium and noted
economist, gave an Oratorical Union
lecture. Fiorello La Guardia, rotund
mayor of New York City, visited here.
World's Fair.

DAVE DONALDSON...
Gargoyle Chief
The Gargoyle, campus humor
magazine, will be "bigger and better
this year," offering all the features
of past years as well as several new
developments, Managing Editor Da-
vid Donaldson, '41, announced yes-
terday.
The first of eight 52-page issues
will be on sale Tuesaay, October 15,
priced at 15 cents. su'scriptions may
be purchased in the Gargoyle busi-
ness office or at various points on
the campus at u cost of $1.
Continuing the short story contest
begun last year, the Gargoyle's edi-
tors will pay $6 for the best story
submitted for competition each
month. Entries will be judged on
literary merit and not humor, Don-
aldson warned.
Feature of the magazine will be
the eight-page picture section each
month, offering candid and posed
shots taken by student photogra-
phers on the campus. In addition
there will be an amateur photogra-
phy contest for each issue, with
prizes of $3, $2 and $1 going to the
winners.
Jokes and cartoons in the Gar-
goyle this year will be of higher cal-
ibre than ever before, Donaldson is
certain. Staff cartoonists are at
work already and should have their
work for the first issue complete
within a few days, he added.

CHARLES

SAMUEL.. .
... 'Ensian Head

Students at the University will
find the 1941 edition of the Michi-
ganensian, campus year book, their
"ringside seat to everything," ac-
cording to Managing Editor Charles
B. Samuel, '41.
Color photography will highlight
this year'ss 'Ensian!, chronicle of
Michigan events. The book was a
sell-out last year and in 1939, and
new features promise to aid in even
quicker sales of the 1940 edition,
Samuel said.
"Continued action" camera shosts
of sports events, a feature begun
in last year's edition, will be promi-
nently displayed this year, enab-
ling readers to watch a virtually
complete unfolding of spectacular
plays by Michigan's varsity squads,
he continued.
Many of the group photographs
will be taken against outdoor
tographers' studios, lending addi-
tional interest to the pictures, he
said. The usual amount of space,
Samuel added, will be devoted to fra-
ternities, sororities and other or-
ganizations. Plans are underway to
give adequate representation to the
cooperative movement that has been
gaining momentum here for several
years, he commented.
The 1940 'Ensian will feature the
padded leather cover that has be-
come a tradition with the book, as
well as many candid photographs
and "plenty of beauty shsots," Sam-
uel said.

new system was designed to give
the organization greater stability.
Elections are conducted according
to the Hare system of proportional
representation and have drawn more
valid participants than any other
all-campus voting in the history of
student government at the Univer-
sity. This year William Elmer, '41,
and Robert Speckhard, '42, will di-
rect the balloting.
On the floor, the group is divided
into majority and minority groups,
with the leader of the former serving
as president and that of the latter
as vice-president. Robert Reed, '42,
is the incumbent president.
Any scholastically eligible student
may petition for places on the Sen-
ate ballot and in past elections the
field of candidates has run as high
as 67.
Full details concerning petitioning
will be announced shortly.
