TRADITION ON CAMPUS: Varsity Men's Clee Club Is Planning Full Year's Program: ANOTHER CASUALTY: CampIs H mor Mag"azine Dies; Lectures Will Profit 4>1__________________________ One campus group whose position in Michigan tradition is undisputed is the Varsity Men's Glee Club, and according to present indications, plans to organize this fall and con- tinue its long history; Headed by Professor David Mat- tern of the School of Music the Glee Cluh is composed entirely of men and as Prof. Mattern put it-"It hasn't been easy maintaining a full membership, but we have managed." In the last couple of years, the personnel has been divided between civilian and Navy men on campus and Prof. Mattern indicated that notices -of, tryout meeting will be posted. The Glee Club long has been an established feature of campus life, participating in smokers, outdoor concerts on the library steps, and entertaining for alumni groups. Before the war, this group en- joyed a national reputation envied by most, but duplicated by very fewl as one of the outstanding organiza- tions of its kind in the nation. They made frequent trips to the East sand around the Middle West, appearing before alumni groups. These travel activities have been suspended for the duration but the campus programn will be continued. The past summer saw the campus program in full swing including a major production in the front of the Library and appearances before cam- pus groups. Persons interested in joining the Glee Club are asked to watch The Daily this week for announcement of1 tryout meeting. Nine Air Shows Added This Fall Nine radio programs begun as experiments this summer by the University Broadcasting Service will be added to the regular schedule this fall. These programs are carried by WJR Detroit and WKAR, Lansing and all originate on campus in Morris Hall. --Photo by John Horeth t TOP OFFICERS OF NEW POST-Secn aove are Commander Len Cavanaugh (left) and Vice-Commander Laszlo Hetenyi of the new American Legion George H. Cannon Post. The post was formed here in early October and will aid veterans enrolling in the University. With its membership growing as new veterans arrive on campus, the new George H. Cannon Post of the American Legion is fast becoming an integral part of the campus and community life. Comm. Cavanaugh, reputed to be the youngest American Legion com- mander in the nation at 21, predicted that Legion activities would get into full swing after the term begins. "We are going to conduct a recruiting program among the new veterans who will be enrolling," he said, "and we expect to increase the scope of our activities." By EVELYN PHILLIPS Chant the funeral dirge. Hang out the lack crepe. The Gargoyle, long may it live, is dead. No longer will its subtle quips and not-so-subtle quips liven the dead- ened atmosphere of that oh-so-bor- ing lecture. No longer will the glam- our gals see themselves as others see them in the Garg Album of Beauty. No longer will gravel-voiced high- pressure salesmen sing the praises of that famous humor magazine, ex- changing campus cut-up numbers for a paltry sum of silver. There have~been many war cas- ualties around campus. There is less coffee, less sugar, less tea, less hot-fudge sundaes, less room, and in fact, less everything is the order of the day. But before we could always laugh, sometimes sneering- ly, for it must be admitted that at times The Gargoyle hit a new high in campus scorn. And now, we. don't even have The Gargoyle to drive us to fits of mad laughter. Remember the deluge of modern short stories with which we whiled away the time in the library. There was the heartbreaker entitled "Ram- sey's Regression," whose passionate wolfish heart was laid bare by the lucid pen of Orson Patterson. And, darling, do you remember those laughable, lovable sketches by the same name, "Darling, Do You Remember?" And Wormsley, the candid critic of music matter, who gave us "As You Like It," and we read it whether we liked it or not, has gone into hiding until the war is over and he can once more trot out his precious music master- pieces. And the pictures!!! My dear, do you remember how The Garg traips- ed right along to the upper regions with Mary Borman's boys and gave us front line pictures of dapper Mich- igan men (with one hand not in right pocket and one pipe not be- tween upper and lower plate) slaving like true sons of the soil to save the beet crop. And no college humor magazine could compare with The Gargoyle when it came to acquiring those 12:30 a.m. pictures. The Gargoyle, typical represen- tation of Michigan humor or un- reasonable facsimile thereof (with 3 box tops and 20 cents) has died, New Machine Is GiveV, toU Refrigeration Plant To Be Set Up Here An absorption refrigeration mach- ine capable of turning out two tons of ice per day has been donated to the University by the Hoover Com- pany of North Canton, Ohio and was set up in thd chemical and metal- lurgical department laboratory for lab and experimental work, J. L. York, of the Chemical Engineering department said recently. Occupying 144 square feet of floor space, the machine has been run for 100 hours by the Hoover Company, Mr. York said. Operating continuously, the ma- chine -will be used for student edu- cation in the theory and practice of refrigeration, according to Mr. York. but its spirit lives on. Just listen to any senior's joke, any profes- sor's ha-ha line and you may know that The Gargoyle has not lived in vain. And when the time comes that wartime pressure and incon- veniences are removed, let it be known that a most substantial ghost of The Gargoyle will once again return to haunt the Uni- versity campus. _ Ulrich's Connections with 600 Schools and Bookstores Throughout the United States Have Stocked Our Store with TO nd TONS of UsED a W TEXTBOOKS For Every Course on the Michigan Campus ULRICH's YWHOLSALE BYI G Enables us to give you great Valnes in Student Supplies NOTICE!
