New Year's Dance
Sale To Take Place
At 3 Campus Points
Tickets for the " '42 Finale," the
huge New Year's Eve dance planned
by the Manpower Corps, will go on
sale Tuesday noon at three points on
campus, according to Bob Oddy, '44,
publicity and ticket chairman for
the affair.
"A limited number of tickets will
be sold," said Oddy, "and identifica-
tion cards must be presented in or-
der to purchase a ticket." Tickets
can be bought at the League, Union
and in the Manpower Corps Office
which is at 1009 Angell Hall. "We're
certainly expecting a crowd," con-
tinued Oddy, "because this dance is
the only approved University func-
tion . . . and we're abiding by that
ancient policy, "first come, first
served."
Proceeds to Bomber Scholarship
"'42 Finale," a celebration strictly
for University students, will be held
from 9 p.m. to 12:30 a.m. in the
Sports Building and will launch the
Manpower's War Stamp and bond
drive. War corsages will be sold and
all proceeds for the dance will be
turned over to the Bomber-Scholar-
ship fund.
Bill Sawyer's orchestra will play
for this dance, which will be the first
New Year's Eve celebration in Ann
Arbor, to be followed the next morn-
ing by 8-o'clock classes.
The much-speculated question of
curfew hours for the evening were
settled at the time of the announce-
ment of the dance. Women students
will have to be in their living quar-
ters at 1 a.m.

open only to advanced corps men, but
this year for the first time in its his-
tory all members of the ROTC and
NROTC, including the basic students,
are invited to attend the dance in
uniform.
In order to keep expenses down in
war time, no programs or other favors
will be given away at the party. How-
ever, the dance will be a colorful af-
fair because of the uniforms, and
decorations will consist of military
equipment, flags and bunting. The
proceeds will be divided between the
Military Science department, Naval
Science department and the Bomber-
Scholarship.
Date Advanced
Ordinarily held in spring, the Ball'
has been set ahead this year, because
many of the advance corps men are
graduating seniors. As it is possible
that some basic students may leave
at the end of this semester, also, the
dance will provide a last get-together
and a last chance to relax before
exams for many of the members of
the two military reserve forces.
The orchestra for Military Ball will
be announced soon, according to the
co-chairmen.

By CAROL COTHRAN
All those potential Sonja Henies
who can cut any figure from one to
eight on ice have the chance to de-
velop and display their talents by
joining the Figure Skating Club.
Headed by Nancy Upson, '44, thej
organization meets twice a week at
the Coliseum; half the members on.
Tuesday and the rest on Wednesday.
Nancy, who can write her name
quicker on ice than she can on paper,
will give general instructions to the
group at first and then she will con-
centrate on instructing the members
individually.
Practice for Carnival
The group's activities this season
will be mainly devoted to practicing
for the ice carnival to be given in
conjunction with the Ann Arbor
Skating Club in the spring. The event
will offer opportunities for perform-

ing in chorus routines and for ap-
pearing in duet or quartet numbers.
At the present time, the club has
an ample membership, but the addi-
tion of a few more women will en-
title the group to become a member
in full standing of the U.S.F.S.A.
'Translated, this means the United
States Figure Skating Association,
the national amateur organization.
Own Figure Skates
The only prerequisite for belong-
ing to the club here on campus is to
own a pair of figure skates, charac-
terized by the wide, rocker-type
blades. The ordinary tubular blades
are not designed for fancy skating
because they are too narrow.
Those who are interested in join-
ing, but cannot meet on either Tues-
day or Wednesday should contact
Nancy and make arrangements ac-
cordingly.
