WEDNESDAY, APRIL 8, E MIC GAN DAILY FAt ffvE Ticket SaleForBarnet Swing Concert To Open Tomorrow Concert Profit Will Contribute To Scholarship Barnet's I 5-Piece Swing Band To Play Favorite Arrangements; Buck Dawson Is Jive Chairman Tickets for Michigan's first Swing Concert, two-and-one-half hours of "solid jive," to be staged by Charlie Barnet and his orchestra at 8 p.m. Wednesday, April 22, in Hill Audi- torium for the benefit of the Univer- sity's Bomber Scholarship fund, will go on general sale tomorrow on the diagonal. Fraternities will be contacted to- day at dinner while salesmen will be on hand tomorrow to sell tickets in the men's dormitories. Proceeds for the concert, which is being sponsored by Alpha Phi Omega, men's service fraternity, in cooperation with the University Music Society, will be turned over to augment the "Bomber Scholarship" fund. To Play Favorites Charlie Barnet, who, according to various national polls and "Metro- nome," authority on swing, has been voted the "world's greatest saxo- phonist," will present his 15-piece band in swing arrangements of "Pompton Turnpike," "Between 18th and 19th on Chestnut Street," and "Cherokee," which are his most pop- ular recordings. Barnet's aggregation, considered by "Metronome" as the best of the white "hot" bands, literally burned down Palomar Ballroom in Los An- geles, California-with their "hot" arrangements, where they filled an engagement recently. The band sky- rocketed to fame following an ap- pearance at the "Famous Door" and the Paramount Theatre in New York. Dawson Heads Committee Heading the committee in charge of the arrangements for the concert is Buck Dawson, '43, who invites Michigan students to "sit and sweat with Charlie Barnet" for the benefit of their own enjoyment and thex scholarship fund.1 Other committee members includer Martha Kinsey, '44, and Moly Hoff-1 mann, '43, in charge of women'si promotion; Robert Eich, '45, and Carson Gruenwald, '44, publicity;t Dick Schoel, '43, assisted by Stuart Churchill, '43, and George Harris, '45, tickets; and Will Coulter, '45, arrangements. Also assisting will be Bob Cope, '42, president of Alpha Phi Omega. Mortarboards Hold Initiation 'BWOC's' Tapped At Banquet Get Pins In Secret Ceremony Mortarboards, clad in their official regalia of caps and gowns, jumped in and out of a moving van a night ago, ran between the rain drops at their stops and trudged up and down stairs in their search for, and tapping of, next year's members of the senior honorary society. At 10:30 p.m. (with late permission et al, of course) the kerchiefed and reversibled group arrived at the League after having tramped with muddy feet into approximately 20 houses, singing their special Pi Sigma Alpha song. A candle-lit ceremony was held in the League Chapel during which the new members of Mortarboard were awarded the distinctive pin of the society. Women who were tapped at In- stallation Banquet last week and in- itiated Monday night, chosen for this honor on the basis of scholarship, service, and leadership are: Barbara Alcorn, Virginia Capron, Dorothy Cummings, Barbara de Fries, Nancy Filstrup, Marjorie Green, Gertrude Inwood, Mildred Janusch and Jean .Jeffrey. Continuing the list are Dorothy Johnson. Lorraine Judson, Janet Lewin, Barbara MacLaughlin, Mar- jorie Mahon, Mrs. V. B. Monnett, Betty Newman, Gloria Nishon, Elea- nor Rakestraw, Dorothy Schloss, Marjorie Storkan and Charlotte Thompson. Spring Rain Brings Bright Colors Forth In New Raincoats Whispers Of Spring (I I .. League Socia I WAAntiCS by Phyl Present i ' s r -- Another chapter in the history of WAA began to unfold when Donelda Schaible, retiring president, handed over her duties to Nancy Filstrup in an impressive installation Monday at the WAB. With the sturdy background set up by the past board, the new board is raring to go and hopes to make this a banner year. There's lots to do at this time of emergency and with cooperation of campus women, WAA hopes to do its part. Hardly having a chance to realize what's been happening, Nancy whizzed off last night with Miss Marie Hartwig on the Wolverine to Wellesley Col- lege where they will attend the tenth national convention of the American Federation of College Women. This organization of which, we are proud to say, Miss Hartwig is a national officer, was founded during the last World War, and consists of about 250 schools all over the country. The national convention is held once every three years. so there will be many activities planned for our sojourners. General problems of athletic organization and woman's place in national defense will be the big topics discussed.' The travelers will be back "hy'ar" in the West Sunday, and Nancy has a supper meeting planned for the WAA Board Tuesday. - * * "Fun" is the key word to describe "Rec-Rally," if it could be described in one word. WAA was really pleased to see the women and even men on campus turn out. About 60 men and women ran around from sport to sport, that final evening, playing one game, and cutting it short to try something else. With dances to keep them going for an hour and a half, the committee was disappointed, because everyone was at the end of his "second wind" I after an hour of steady square dancing. Guess we'll have to practice up. Candid camera fiends take note! Here's the place and time to exchange ideas on the latest gadget you invented for your camera, or to compare prize-winning upshots of the Law Quad. Hobby Lobby is stressing photog- raphy, so anyone interested in that hobby or any other hobby, as far as that goes, is urged to come out. Meeting will be held at 4:30 p.m. Thursday at the WAB, so that means the first one is tomorrow. Since the softball tournament has bravely had to wait for the snow to melt, a little rain can't stop the games. With an optimistic outlook the games have begun, and rain or shine, the first leg of the tournament will be played off in two weeks--we hope. Members of the Outing Club are another set of optimistic people. Sun- day has been set for a hike and picnic supper. Those attending will meet at 5 !).m. at the WAB. Lots of organizing has been going on over in the tennis corner with Jo Lloyd, new tennis sports manager, responsible. A board has been set, up consisting of the following three people: Nancy Hattersley, Connie Ham- mett and Helen Arata. They are to help organize the club and decide its policies. "Keeping the head down and left arm straight" is only a small bit of the technique the women golfers on campus must keep in mind if they want to be one of the eight winners of the golf tournament now in swing. Re- member all you golfers have to do is to play eighteen holes on the University course and hand your scores in to Mrs. Stewart Hanley before April 27. Group To Hold Meeting Today Duties Of Sub-Committees To Be Explained In League; Eligibility Cards Are Required New manager of the social affairs of the League, Peg Brown, '43, chair- man of the social committee, will be- gin the duties of her office by hold- ing a mass meeting at 4:30 p.m. today for all women who are interested in continuing work on the committee or in joining for the first time. Duties of the social committee in- clude management of the Ruthven Teas, which are held from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. on two Wednesdays during every month, the 7-11 Club in the League, the style shows sponsored by the League, the Acquaintance Bureau, the Guide Service, and sev- eral bridge tournaments which are held during the year. "This meeting is the last oppor- tunity for women who wish to sign up and everyone interested must at- tend whether they were previously on the committee or not," Miss Brown said. Eligibility cards will be required of committee members. At this meeting there will be an opportunity for women to petition for the sub-chairnanships of each of these functions. The room in which the meeting is to be held will be posted on the bulletin board in the League lobby. Slosson Will Speak To Jordan Residents Prof. and Mrs. Preston Slosson will be the guests of Ruth Collins, '45, and the Current Events Committee of Jordan Hall at dinner tomorrow, after which Professor Slosson will speak to the residents on the war and world affairs. Special invita- tions have been extended to all Mo- sher Hall and Stockwell Hall women. At this time the dormitory's $240 contribution for the support of Ann and Terry Steveson, British refugee twins. will be presented to Mrs. Slos- son, local chairman of the Save the Children Federation. The sole casualty in the unex- plained aerial bombardment of Ann Arbor's manufacturing suburbs early yesterday lies today in a cheerless, cubicle in the University Hospital, a; man wronged by a capricious fate. It was during the dark hours be- fore the dawn that a University stu- dent, W. "Buck" Dawson, '43, was struck down without warning by a timed bomb left in the wake of the unidentified flight of aircraft, pre- sumably those of the Prodigal Sun, which wrought "relatively light" havoc upon the city's factories yes-' terday. A Civilian Attacked Dawson is a civilian, a man of peace. But this is war in which the innocent and the guilty, the strong and the weak, suffer the indiscrim- inate scourging of a war-mad Yellow Peril. Dawson will let nothing stop him in his hysterial search for publicity for the Wynx Dance which is to be held Friday night from 9 p.m: to midnight in the Union Ballroom. He. bribed the counting committee which was to determine the campus vote in the Vote-For-Your Favorite Band Sur- vey connected with last year's Soph Prom to count the votes in favor of a band which had already been hired. He bribed a clothing store proprie- tor in Detroit to sell him an overcoat which he could say was given him- that stunted his allowance for two months. But this final coup is the apex of everything; any man who can bribe a Jap pilot to bomb him- just for dance publicity must be handed this week's biscuit with a congratulatory word or two. The Wynx Answer In answer, therefore, to this pre- arranged insidious and . marrow- chilling threat of destruction from the skies, Air Raid Precautions will be taken Friday night by Wyvern and Sphinx to keep civilians off the Wynx Constructs Air Raid Shelter For 'Refugees' In Union Friday streets-and in the Union Ballroom from nine to twelve. All students who do not have the security of private shelters for them- selves and the ones, they hold dear, are advised by the interceptor Com- mand that a fully equipped shelter will be constructed at the Union, with morale sustaining group recrea- tion furnished in the form of door prizes, both dead and alive. Bill Sawyer and his orchestra will play for the cowering refugees and will feature vocalists Gwen Cooper and Al Burt. Exhibition Of China Will Be Held Today In League By Scroll New patterns and old favorites in Wedgewood china will be displayed from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. today in the League as a project of Scroll Society, senior honorary for affiliated women. All students are invited to attend the display, Mildred Radford, presi- dent of the society, said, in explain- ing Scroll's plans in setting up the table displays. The room number will be posted, she safd. Plans are going forward, Miss Rad- ford also disclosed, for a campus- wide rummage sale to be sponsored by Scroll. Members of the group will canvass sorority houses and dormi- tories for discarded "rummage" with clothing and personal items wel- comed. Following the sale, Scroll will then donate a part of the pro- ceeds from their project to the Bomber Scholarship fund. Le Cercle Francais will present "La Belle AVenture," a comedy in three acts by de Cailletet, de Flers and Rey, at 8:30 p.m. Wednesday, April 29, in the Lydia Mendelssohn The- atre. } Lacy navy net with a fluted col- lar and a flesh-colored flower tucked into the belt is the perfect addition to an early spring ward- robe. Elections Announced Alpha Chi Omega announces the recent election of Barbara Mac- Laughlin, '43, as president of the chapter; Virginia Stover, '43, as vice- president; Louise Higbee, '43, record- ing secretary; Charlotte Iselman, '44, corresponding secretary, and Doro- thy Dudgeon, '44, treasurer. x- F t ti rr the enduring avorites These are the clothes you aant k'or Spring-- these are the cloties you love best -- functziotal, beconai g, fun, to wear.
