Plan To Build Scholarship Fund Bill Sawyer, and his "Symphony in Rhythm," a band with a purpose and a goal, will play for the Union Formal, to be held from 9 p. m. to midnight next Friday in the Union ballroom. From scattered parts of the country Bill Sawyer has gathered his present organization which he calls an "All- American Band," established for'the purpose of providing a proving- ground for young musicians who want professional experience. Recruited Young Men The entire summer was spent in recruiting young men who were inter- ested in playing for the sake of music itself, and for the opportunity of de- veloping their ability. From Chatta- nooga, Tenn., Chicago, Buffalo, and Pennsylvania players have been col- lected into a group which campus opinion indicates is the best band the Union has ever presented. "For four years I have been playing at the Union, and every year my group keeps building-like a rolling snowball," Sawyer says. The goal of the Union orchestra, is "to develop a permanent position and a permanent fund for young musi- cians from all over the country, to enable these musicians to study in the University's School of Music, and, at the same time, provide them with professional training that they could get nowhere else." Improve Professional Attitude The orchestra is striving constantly to improve the organization to such an extent that the young players can adjust rapidly. They gain experience in reading exclusively from manu- script arrangement, and they improve their professional attitude. The orchestra desires to become a scholarship organization, providing an opportunity for worthy musicians to obtain their musical schooling by meeting the expenses through playing in a professional group. It has begun to realize this ambition, for, since beginning to play for the Union dan- ces, the orchestra has been made up entirely of young men trying to get a musical education. This unique ar- rangement has proven to be a "gold- mine" to these young musicians, for almost every one of them would not be able to be in school if it weren't for the work they get in the orchestra. When Sawyer came to the Union there were eleven men in the group. The budget has now been increased to provide this opportunity to fifteen men and a girl. Music Is Alive Here Sawyer is intensely interested in providing this opportunity for young musicians and in his musical work here, for he believes that "music is alive in Ann Arbor." The University of Michigan is the only place which has aided an experiment of this type to be successful. While many talented players have been attracted into this organization, it is realized that the vast field has not even been tapped, and it is from this field that Sawyer hopes to per- fect his "All-American band."

"Music is one of the things that our armed forces are fighting for. More destructive to their morale than the terrors of war would be to learn that the things which they loved in their youth were being ne- glected at home." - Husband Is In Service Miss Swarthout would, also, dele- gate to music and the other arts the duty of refreshing the minds of the men and women who are doing their utmost behind the lines. This noted singer is speaking from a trustworthy source when she com- ments on the desires of the "boys at the front," as her husband, Frank Chapman, is serving the United States as a captain in the Marine Corps. He has given up his career as a baritone and his work with his wife to serve his country. "This was a difficult step for both of us, said Miss Swarthout," as we always worked and played together." She Is "Doing Her Part" Miss Swarthout is, herself, doing everything that is humanly possible to aid in the war effort. Singing at benefits, at army camps, and for every charity function that she can possibly include in her crowded schedule, this star of opera, screen, and radio is "doing her part." She firmly believes that every member of the theatrical profession keenly feels the present crisis and is eager to do everything he or she can. "In fact," she said, "many of them are attempting more than is physically possible, if they wish to maintain their health." Not only are they working hard at their jobs as entertainers, which are important in maintaining the morale of the peo- ple, but they are working evenings, after the theatres close, for the USO, the Stage Door Canteen, and other such functions.

Since the European field is closed both to students and performers, it would be advisable to wait until the opportunity for young singers is bet- ter. "There is always time, when you are young; and a year or two at this time can be more profitably spent in other work." Miss Swarthout be- lieves that this is the course she would follow if she were faced with this problem. Auxiliary Riding Club Plans Organization Meeting At League Crop and Saddle Club is organizing an auxiliary riding club for women riders who have had some basic ex- perience, announced Sybil Graham, '44, president of the group. All women who are interested in riding and especially those who tried out for Crop and Saddle are invited to join. This junior club will have its initial neeting at 5 p. m.
