Sawyer Will Play fit NewYear's Eve Student Help Needed To Reach $30,000 Goal Set by JGP WAC Show. i Celebration Dance Band Has Played for Union Parties Since 1938; Gained Student Recognition At New Haven Yale-Michigan Football Game e W a ~ n e - I c g a n O~t 'a m Current hits and songs appropriate to the "Auld Lang Syne" spirit will be played by Bill Sawyer and his orchestra for the New Year's Eve "Final Spree of '43" to be held from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m. in Waterman Gym. Tickets for the dance will be sold from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. today at the Union. This year marks the fifth in the band's history as an established cam- pus dance orchestra. Not until 1938 did Sawyer gain campus recognition, and then he had to go to New Haven for the '38 Yale-Mich. football game to be heard by the visiting Michigan student body. Prior to that time, Sawyer had played for various fraternity and class parties, but in 1938 Stanford Walz, manager of the Union, asked Sawyer to play for the Union dances and the orchestra gained its present po- sition. When Sawyer came to college as a freshman, he organized a new or- chestra, by the simple device of post- ing a notice requesting five interested freshmen to contact him. Since the beginning of the venture some 60 of the orchestra's members have grad- uated from the University. Sawyer said that he believes his is the only organization in any, educational in- stitution where students can get ex- perience and instruction in reading professional scores while attending college. The war has effected a rapid turn- over in band personnel. The orches- tra has lost 63 players to the armed forces, 32 of whom have gone since January 1, 1943, but there is still a long waiting list of musicians who want to play in the orchestra, Sawyer said. Sawyer pnd his orchestra have been heard over most of -the major net- works, and have appeared on the Fitch Bandwagon. Sawyer's activi- ties have not been limited to dance music alone. He. is the director of the Woman's Glee Club, the Soldier's Choir, and his orchestra is aiding in the preparation of the "Messiah." The orchestra has presented several USO To Hold Holiday Parties For Servicemen Several Christmas parties for the servicemen will be given during the holiday season at Harris Hall, the new USO center. Beginning with a Christmas Eve party, from 9:30 p.m. to midnight on Dec. 24, the USO will hold three functions for those men who must remain on campus during the holi- days. At this Christmas Eve party there will be a Christmas tree and gifts for the servicemen. On Christmas Day, the men may go over to Harris Hall for a tea dance that will begin at 2 p.m. and con- tinue through the evening. Refresh- ments for this dance will be fur- nished by a group of Ann Arbor women. Climaxing the holiday season will be a formal dance given on New Year's Eve in the ballroom of Harris Hall. The dance will begin at 8:30 p.m. and continue until 12:30 a.m. University coeds who will stay here during the holidays and who are Junior Hostesses are urged to go to Harris Hall and participate in these functions. The new hours for the USO are 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily, open later for dances and special functions. Servicemen may come over to the building at any time during the hours, to use the facilities available. concerts in Hill Auditorium, and re- cently played Gershwin's "Rhapsody in Blue" in the Masonic Hall in De- troit. The orchestra will return from an extensive tour, during which they will have made nine consecutive ap- pearances, to play for the campus New Year's Eve dance. Mosher Hall Heads Bond, Stamp Drive Mosher Hall is soaring over the Pa- cific virtually unaccompanied on Ju- nior Girls Project's war-stamp-and- bond campaign poster on the League bulletin board. The poster put up by the JGP pos- ter committee, headed by Marcia Sharpe, '44A, is a large drawing of the Pacific Ocean and surrounding ter- ritory. Each large women's residence house on campus has an airplane tak- ing off from Ann Arbor's longitude and headed toward Tokyo. Each stamp bought in a house moves its plane toward Hirohito. The committee points out, however, that returns are as yet incomplete for the month of December, and the pi- lots will not be in a position to give their true bearings until after vaca- tion. The poster is emphasis for JGP's '43-'44 bond and stamp campaign which sets as its goal $30,000. Bandage Unit Remains Open' Attendance Falls Off; 1,300 Hours Given During Semester For the following two weeks women in Ann Arbor will have the opportun- ity to work at Surgical Dressings in the Rackham Building from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. Wednesday and Friday and from 7:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. Wednes- day and Thursday, as the League Unit will be closed until January 5 at 1 p.m. The closing of the League Unit Fri- day showed a total of 1,300 hours spent by the coeds at the Surgical Dressings rooms this semester. The attendance increased after the edit- orials on women in war work appear- ed in The Daily, but have decreased in the past few weeks, announced Jean Whittimore, head of the League Unit. Miss Whittimore continued, "There has been no decrease in the need for the dressings, however. Every letter Non-Campus Sales Banned Students will have to buy war stamps and bonds to reach the $30,000 goal for the year set by Jun- ior Girls' Project, as the JGP Central Committee has banned the system of having friends and relatives "back home" send in bond numbers to raise house totals, it was announced by Deborah Parry, '45, JGP chairman.- JGP's '43-'44 plan is to urge every civilian student to buy at least $1 a month's worth of war stamps fromi money which would otherwise be, spent for luxuries. "Many houses last year entered the war stamp and bond competition with bonds bought by others and neglected the real purpose of the1 drive, to divert student spending into helping the war effort and keeping; down Ann Arbor's already exorbitant prices," Peg Weiss, '44, JGP publicity1 chairman, said yesterday. "This year1 we're working toward our goal the, hard way, but the Central Committee believes it the best way." Honor Societies To Hold Carolling Party Members of the five women's hon- or societies on campus will serenade with Christmas carols from 8:30 to 11 p.m. Monday. Gerry Stadelman, Mortar Board, will have charge of the carolers. Members of Scroll, Wyvern, Senior Society, and Alpha Lambda Delta will participate in the singing. The home of President Ruthven, Health Service, University Hospital, Women's Dorms, East and West Quads, and the Law Quadrangle will be serenaded. Carolers must meet at 8:15 p.m. in. the lobby of the League. which we receive from hospitals in Europe and other battlegrounds stress the necessity for many more surgical dressings." "Accurate and careful work is re- quired in making these dressings," stated Miss Whittemore. "After the' inspection by the Unit supervisor the packages of dressings are not opened again until they reach their destina- tion." civilian WAC resrui tinI Ouim . and officers of various civic organi- zations throughout the state will re- ceive special invitations to the show from Mayor Young. Twenty-five hundred tickets will be distributed over the state, and 2,500 will be re- served- for distribution in this area. Miss Ethel McCormick, social director of women at the League has been placed in charge of a bloc of 5001 tickets. Members of the faculty and students should make immediate ap- plication to her for these tickets. Col. Hobby was appointed director of the WAAC's on May 15, 1942, by Secretary of War Henry L. Stimson after its creation was approved by Congress May 14, and has remained director since its reorganization as. the Women's Army Corps. The purpose of the recruiting show. Barnes said, is to inform the public concerning the activities and aims of the WAC. He stressed the fact that "educational work is essential before any campaign to obtain the large number of women needed to carry on this war is possible." He added that the WAC recruiting show to be pro- duced in Hill Auditorium will be the largest and most elaborate show of its kind to have been presented. a-I Ifrom the Ann Arbor UtSO.
