The decorations for the dance were also made known, and will be based on a St. Patrick's Day theme. The ef- feet will be rendered largely with lights. although no detailed plans have been made. However, the Slide Rule will have the customary central place in the decorations, it was stated by Ken Moehl, '43, decorations chair- man. Jan Savitt and his band appeared here two years ago when he played in a swing concert which was held at the' field house. Strings Used Extensively Violins are not the only stringed instruments employed in this band, but a viola and cello are included as well. This string section is reported to be ahead of all other bands in original and effective arrangements, for it was one of the first to use strings in a swing band. Since then such bands as Tommy Dorsey, Harry James, and Benny Goodman have followed suit and incorporated stringst in their bands also. Born in Russia, Jan Savitt, came to America at an .early age and led aj small studio band in Philadelphia known as the "Top Hatters." He also played as first violinist in the Phila- delphia orchestra under the direction1 of Leopold Stokowski.1 Broadcast for Many Years, For a number of years he broadcast from station KYW, and later startedl touring. He has appeared at numerous famed theatres, such as the Strand in New York, and others. Jan Savitt is also known as the originator of "Shuffle Rhythm."

Sweater Swing Friday at Union Strict informality is the rule for the big Sweater Swing to be held from- 9 p.m. to midnight Friday in the Union Ballroom with Bill Sawyer and his band furnishing the .music. This is to be an opportunity for everyone to break loose from "college' sophistication" and really relax at ar extra-special dance. According to Bunny Crawford there is going to be lots of rug-cutting by the "jive-boys and hep-cats" on campus. Bill Sawyer, the boys in the bnd, and even Gwen Cooper will be wear- ing sweaters or sport clothes, anc those who plan to attend must wear sporty sweater garb to be admitted. One of the big events of the eve- ning will be a sweater girl contest, with prizes for the winners. This "spe- cial feature" will be judged by the B.M.O.C.'s and B.W.O.C.'s at the dance.

The headdress they are wearing is to protect the dressings from loose hair, and because of chipping, nail polish is taboo. The gauze is folded following a cardboard pattern and the dressings are called four by fours, because they measure exactly four inches square. Loose threads must be avoided because of the possibility of their irritating a wound. Thy are inspected twice for exactness to prevent their ruffling in packing. Six Special Houses Are Invited to Unit Work in the surgical dressing unit will be continued this week at 1 p.m. tomorrow in the game room of the League, and the unit will be open until 5 p.m., as usual. The unit will also be open during these same hours on Friday. The houses that are especially in- vited tomorrow include Alpha Epsi- lon Phi, Madison House, Alpha Chi Omega, Mosher Hall and Alpha Omi- cron Pi. That house which had the highest percentage of its members represented at the unit last week will be announced in tomorrow's Daily. Marjorie Storkan, '43, chairman of the project, reported that the turn-1 out last week was very good. Soph Committee Apoints 'Three Announcement of the three addi- tions to the central committee of sophomore project was made last night and revealed Bette Willemin, '45, Ruth Caryl, '45, and Pat Coulter, '45, to be the new members of the committee. These three women are all members of the soph project honor roll, which means that they have a 100 per cent attendance record for their hospital volunteer work. Ruth Caryl is affiliated witli Kappa Alpha Theta and is from Oak Park, Ill. Pat Coulter is frGm Grosse Pointe, president of Crop and Saddle, and vice-president of Mosher Hall. Bette Willemin's home is here in Ann Arbor. The University Club cafeteria at the Union, the luncheon room for the faculty, has experienced a thriving business since 12 coeds have been "slimging hash" there. They are the first.group of the fair sex ever allowed within the premises of the private club.. Ann MacMillan, '44, is in charge of the new League project which not only has recruited women for the University Club; but has relieved the lack of help in the main dining room and the general cafeteria as well. Most enthusiastic about their work seem to be the waitresses in the Uni- versity Club. The professors are very friendly and they enjoy the atmos- phere a great deal. When luncheon is over the girls clear the tables and find it most amusing to decipher the doodling which is invariably found on the lun- cheon mats. The addition of women to that club seems to have worked out most successfully. Perhaps the only calam- ity which has occurred by the addi- tion of women, is the case when one flustered coed, seeing her Ec. 52 pro- fessor standing in line, who inciden- tally was flunking her, made such a valiant attempt to appear efficient, that she poured soup into a dinner plate and showered several bystand- ers with hot liquid. Waitresses in the main dining room and cafeteria also enjoy their work. All strenuous jobs, such as carrying heavy trays, are done exclusively by the boys. Marjorie Rutherford, '44, received the thrill of her life last week when she served lunch to Jascha Hei- fetz. Approximately 25 women have en- rolled in this sort of work. Ten of them are Alpha Phi's who find that the hour and half they work every day is practically equivalent to the time that is required for them to walk home for lunch and return to campus. The most practical training they have received from this work is be- lieved by Miss MacMillan to be the experience with food. They learn to judge quantities which are needed to accommodate large numbers. In ad- dition they have first-hand experi- ence with dietetics. Engagements Told Mr. and Mrs. Clarence W. Tread- well of Grosse Pointe, announce the engagement of their daughter, Doro- thy, '44, to Mr. Robert Barrie Marr, son of Mr. and Mrs. Maurice S. Marr, of Grosse Pointe. Miss Treadwell is a member of Chi Omega. Mr. Marr, '43, formerly at- tended Kenyon College, where he was affiliated with Sigma Pi fraternity. Mr. and Mrs. R. J. Kaltner of South Bend, Ind. announce the engagement of their daughter, Muriel, '43, to John Edward King, '43, son of Mr. and Mrs. J. E. King, also of South Bend.
