First Celebration Since War
Scheduled for Next Friday
{.\_
Qrid Shuffle
Will Be Held
Michigani's first wartime homecom-
ing will be the spotlighted celebration
scheduled to begin with a pep rally
next Friday, Nov. 10, at the Yost
Field House.
The fete will be an entire weekend
affair, its purpose to revive some of
thle University's pre-war college at-
mosphere. Visiting gridiron victims
will be the Illini boys of Illinois, who
last year were trounced by the Wol-
verines, 42-6 at Champaign.
Skeleton plans for this all-campus
event have been announced by Glenn
White, '46, head of the publicity
committee of the Men's Union. After
the rally Friday night, merrymak-
ers will turn to the Union Ballroom,
wpere Bill Layton and his orchestra
will play for festive-minded dancers.
House Presidents Meet
All presidents of league houses,
dormitories, and sororities have been
asked to meet at 4:15 this after-
poon in the Grand Rapids Room of
the League to discuss arrangements
for the homecoming displays which
Each house has been invited to set
up. These displays will probably
concern the game, the war effort, or
the 1918 armistice. Cost will be lim-
ited to $5.
These exhibits, together with those'
pf the men's residences and the fra-
ternities still on campus, will be judg-
ed next Saturday morning. Two tro-
phies to be presented to the winning
houses, male and female, have been
donated by the Burr-Patterson-Auld
fraternity jewelers.
The feature of any homecoming is
the Saturdays afternoon football
game, to begin at 2:00. Michigan's
All-American Band, which will also
play at the pep rally, will present
some special maneuvers at the half
in this Illinois-Michigan game. Pro-
ceedings will co memorate Armistice
Day, as well as celebrate the home-
coming.
Saturday night will be a social
highlight. In addition to the big
victory dance with Bill Layton at
the Union, fraternities and sororities
will hum with activity and visiting
alumni holding their own dances,
teas, and dinners. T. Hawley Tap-
ping, generl secretary of the Alum-
ni Association, has sent out notices
all over the country notifying alumni
of the homecoming. Alumni will reg-
ister at the Union Saturday morn-
ing.
The last Michigan homecoming
was celebrated October 25, -1941, when
a sell-out crowd saw previously un-
beaten Michigan lose to an old neme-
sis, Bernie Bierman's Minnesota Go-
phers, 7-0. That year the Alpha
Sigma Phi's walked away with the
trophy for the best homecoming dis-
play. Their prize-winner concerned
those old fine rare commodities, ciga-
rettes. They advertised Minnesota
as "They're Roasted." Four cigar-
ette butts _.abeled with Michigan's
previous grid victims that year were
lying in an ashtray, with the nota-
tion, "Michigan is a match for any
team." Two-year winners, the Sigma
Chi's were dethroned to runner-up
spot.
Plans for this years homecoming
are being coordinated by White, San-
ford Perlis, '46, and Tom Donnelly,
'46, of the Union executive council;
the Women's War Council under
president Marge Hall, '45; and Peg
Laubengeyer, '45, and Florene Wil-
kins, '45, respective heads of Pan-
Hellenic and Assembly.

Layton To Play
This Weekend
Bill Layton and his orchestra will
again play for the weekly Union dan-
ces tonight and Saturday from 9 p.
m. to midnight in the main ballroom
of the Michigan Union.
Layton's orchestra has been popu-
lar with students ever since he as-
sumed "command" last spring. This
week-end, new arrangements of "It
Had To Be You," "You Always Hurt
the One You Love," and "Summer
Time" will be featured, as well as
vocalist Judy Ward and Whitney
Benson, the band's drummer.
Layton and the orchestra provided
week-end entertainment for students
during the summer and will continue
the policy of weekly dances through-
out the semester.
New students on campus are invited
by Layton to become acquainted with
the University's own orchestra for it
is one of the few universities in the
country to have one.
This
Saturday
All-Campus Entertainment
To Combine Penn Broadcast
With Record Dance at Union
Something new in an all campus
dance which will include listening
to the broadcast of the Michigan-
Pennsylvania football game will be
given from 2 p. m. to 5 p. m. Satur-
day in the main ballroom of the Mi-
chigan Union.
The "Grid Graph," a miniature
football field, on which the progress
of the game at Philadelphia will be
charted, will be prominently display-
ers in the ballroom~. While dancing to
the latest popular records students
may watch the development of the
game play-by-play.
Free Admission
Admission will be free and every-
one is invited-couples or single. The
main purpose of the ",Grid Shuffle"
is for students to come and have a
good time.
John Paul, chairman of the event,
explained that freshmen were espe-
cially urged to come. "We know that
they don't know many people on
campus and this will be an excellent
opportunity to meet more friends,"
he explained.
Game Broadcast
The Union Tap Room will be open
all afternoon to serve refreshments
and a broadcast of the game will also
be provided there.
The Union plans to have dances of
the nature throughout the semester
to take the place of the "G. I.
Stomps" of last year which were only
open to servicemen.

"DONATE your blood now" is the
rlea of the American Red Cross
this month. As the November quota
is far from filled, you should make
application immediately at American
Red Cross headquarters in North
Hall. There is still available time
on Nov. 9 and 10. Not only will you
be doing something directly for the
war effort but saving the life of an
American boy besides.a
BLOOD PLASMA is the newest and
one of the greatest medical dis-
coveries, and mercifully it has come
just in time to save thousands of
lives that might otherwise have been
lost. Plasma being the liquid part of
the blood, it eliminates the blood
typing that at one time was so im-
portant and inescapable a part of
transfusion.
THE MANNER in which plasma can
be preserved and transported is
another excellent feature of the fluid.
Either in liquid state or frozen solid
it may be kept for years. But best
of all for warfare, this plasma can
be dried. Then anywhere and at any
time one only needs to mix sterile
water with the dried flaky plasma
and inject the fluid into the vein of a
dying human being.
THE AMERICAN Red Cross volun-
teered early in the war to collect
the needed blood for the Army and
Navy frgm volunteers throughout the
country. One million pints were
needed. They worked out a system
Coeds Needed For
Work at League
Girls interested in doing part-time
cafeteria work at the League should
get in touch with Mrs. Clark at the
Business Manager's office in the
League immediately.
Eight places need to be filled in the
next few days. Working time can be
arranged and probable hours are 7:30
to 10:00, 11:20 to 1:30, and 5:20 to
7:45. Further information can be ob-
tained by calling Pat Coulter, Per-
sonal Administrator, at 23159.
walk, trot and canter. Those with
more riding experience will be placed
in the Crop and Saddle, while less
experienced riders will go into the
University Women's Riding Club.
There will be a charge of $1 for each
tryout.
The newest WAA Club is the Off i-
cials Club, managed by Irene Turner.
In this club the members learn how
to officiate at various intramural
games, and national ratings are giv-
en to those who successfully passed
the test. The first meeting will be
held at 5 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 8, in
the WAB.
Camp Counselors
. Those former Camp Counselors
who wish to meet for an exchange of
ideas and instruction will have a
meeting at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday,
Nov. 22, in the WAB.
All of these clubs are open to any
woman student of the University
and it is possible to be a member of
more than one. And, according to
Shelby Dietrich, '45, president of
WAA, "The only prerequisites for
[membership in any of these clubs are
G sportsmanship and enthusiasm."
which worked like this. Since the
blood collected must be processed
within twenty-four hours it is ship-
ped to pharmacentical laboratories
in special locations. Then after be-
ing converted to plasma in dried
form it is packed in cartons with
sterile water, rubber tubing and
transfusion needles. Ready now for
shipping and use, the life-giving fluid
is sent to dressing stations all over
the world and put to work.
THROUGHOUT the semester here
on campus ,volunteers may reg-
ister to help fill the monthly quota
through the Union and the league.
They are given appointments early
and then are taken care of at the
W. A. B. when the mobile unit ar-
rives. But this month due to the
break in semesters the regular sched-
ule is interrupted. That is why there
is such a need for donors this month.
Call the American Red Cross now
and malce your appointment that will
save the life of an American boy
fighting for your freedom.
