A University ruling that no dances be held on Sunday necessi- tates this premature celebration. Jimmy .Strauss To Pay Jimmy Strauss and his popular Detroit band will furnish music for the dance. Strauss appeared at the University for three campus dances last year. . He comes to Ann Arbor from the Grande Ballroom in Detroit. His band has also served contracts rooms and the Book-Cadillac and with the Graystone and Vanity Ball- Statler Hotels. Tickets for the dance will go on sale at 8 a.m. Tuesday at the Union desk. According to Joe Milillo, co- chairman, the entire number of tick- ets will be turned in at the desk and sales will continue until all tickets are sold. Only Union members may buy tickets and their membership card must be exhibited. Favors for Everyone Milillo is being aided in making arrangements for the dance by co- chairman Byron Webb Jr. and Paul John. "The committee is planning on having a large amount of con- fetti, streamers and other favors tol distribute to everyone at the dance," Milillo said. "Although wartime conditions de- mand that students remain on cam- pus for New Year's, there is no reasona why the spirit of the celebra- tion cno be as enthusiastic as peacetime spirit. Let's make this a celebration for Allied victory in 1945," he added. 'Snow To Draw Winter Sports Out Tomorrow Taking advantage of the snow, the Outdoor Sports Club wil hold a skiing and tobogganing party at 2 p. m. tomorrow, with all wintersports en- thusiasts invited. The group will meet at the WAB where they will rent their equipmentI and proceed to the Arboretum. Those who have their own sleds, toboggans, or skiis are asked to bring them also. "Since we so seldom have snow, it will be a wonderful opportunity for the coeds and men to get out and ha,-e winter sports," said Lee Well- man, '46, manager of the Outdoor Sports Club. "And," she continued,! "we are especially inviting the sol-! diers and sailors stationed on campus to come tomorrow. For those who desire instruction in skiing, there will be several instruct- ors there on the hills. All equipmentI may be rented at the WAB. For fur- ther information contact Miss Well-! man at 3018.

Arrangements were made with five sorority houses, and the buses from Battle Creek were to arrive here about 5 p.m. And they did-Battle Creek time. As a result of the 'following late dinner, they arrived at the basketball game just in time to see the last half.
