The program of the smoker will consist of several very short talks describing the represent- ed organizations. During the informal period fol- lowing the program, an opportunity to circulate among the various booths will be given. Plotting Against Enemy Submarines -- Scouts Plan Pot Luck Dinners 101 MUSIlC 0 I UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN C SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA Thor Johnson, Conductor Serenata Notturna (K.V. 239 .. Mozart An Outdoor Overture . Aaron Copland Symphony No. 1 in D major .. Mahler The University Symphony, under the conductorship of Mr. Thor John- son, yesterday achieved a distinction of no mean degree, for their per- formance of the First Symphony of Gustav Mahler marked the first time, to our knowledge, that any symphony of Mahler has been performed by a university orchestra. Due to its extreme instrumenta- tion and its technical difficulty this symphony is seldom tackled by many of 'our first line professional orch- estras; but what is even more perti- nent, its musical problems are such that some of our greatest virtuoso conductors tremble in their shoes be- fore attacking the score, and often come off second best. Therefore too much cannot be said for Mr. Johnson for the really mag- Lieut.-Gen. Hugh A. Drum (center), commander of Eastern army forces, and Brig.-Gen. Arnold N.

From their secret head- quarters in the New York metropolitan area, these men plot strategy against east coast submarine attacks. CLASsIFIED ADVERTISING Campus Gives All-Out Response To Defense Savings Tag Day nificent reading he gave this work. From beginning to end he had the orchestra under a complete, a sensi- tive and immediately responsive con- trol which enabled him to attain, and maintain, a cohesiveness to his reading which is so necessary to give meaning to any performance of Mah- ler. At no time during the playing of the symphony did the orchestra tend to fall apart, which might reas- onably be expected of such a young orchestra in as difficult a work as this. Unusually fine was the nice bal- ance kept by the conductor between the various voices, particularly when several themes were being pulled to- gether and summed up in a crescen- doed climax. One of the finest points in his interpreting of this score was Mr. Johnson's realization of the pro- per climaxes- and his restraint in their summation. The shading and dynamic changes were beautiful throughout, never too abrupt, but with subtlety and full maintenance of tone quality. The beauty of the poignant string passages was fully realized, for which the orchestra should be highly complimented. In fact, the entire orchestra should be given full credit for its technical and tonal resources; it is undoubtedly the finest the University has had under Mr. Johnson. The Serenata Notturna of Mozart, Iwith which the program opened, was played with a nicety of phrasing and fine legato, and a surety of en- semble between the solo and main body of strings. Mr. Johnson's ex- cellence in playing of Mozart is, of course, nothing new; he has for sev- eral years conducted the annual Mo- zart Festival in North Carolina and Ann Arbor audiences are familiar with his Mozart, with the Little Sym- phony in particular. Unfortunately the audience in Hill Auditorium was small, and because of that acoustical problems were present which prevented the full tone of the strings and subtlety of en- semble in the Mozart from being fully appreciated by the audience; and also allowed the brasses to too completely cover the strings in parts of the Mahler. -Kenneth W.

The campaign was the first step in a concentrated effort to acquaint Michigan men and women with the government-approved "savings hab- it." Through steady purchases of stamps, students will he able to buy Series E defense bonds for $18.75. These bonds mature to $25 in 10 years, and can be redeemed at any time. Next move in the campaign will be the establishment of four defense, savings stations in the League, Un- ion, Library and University Hall during the first week of the coming semester. Stamps will be sold through these outlets on an all-day basis. Booth At J-Hop In addition to this all-campus move, there will also be a booth set up at the J-Hop for the sale of defense stamps and albums in addition to ex- tra stamps for the savings-album favor. This J-Hop favor, in the form of a cover for a U.S. savings album containing one 25 cent stamp, will have a midnight blue background for a gold University coat of arms. The pages of the regular program will be' bound on the outside of the album. Under the chairmanship of Burton Rubens, '42, the Defense Savings Committee will sponsor a drive to bring the slogan "Take Part of Your Change in Defense Stamps" into all stores serving the campus. This is in line with a nation-wide campaign, and the stamps will also be sold by University cashiers. Organizations Cooperated Tie defense savings tag day was conducted with the cooperation of nearly every major campus organi- zation. Ted McOmber, '42, was in charge of assembling the albums and organizing sales personnel. The campaign, opened by President Ruthven, was the first of its kind to be conducted on any campus of any higher educational institution in the United States. Cooperating with the University Defense Savings Commit- tee in this drive, the Ann Arbor Jun- ior Chamber of Commerce has also placed the city first in per capita sav- ings of any municipality in the coun- try. Defense stamps and bonds are a continuation of the government pos- tal savings plan opened in 1935. The entire program was tremendously broadened with Japan's attack upon Pearl Harbor.
