Veterwts' Ball
Hostess Meeting
Will Be Wednesday
The social dancing classes for the
entire campus sponsored by Junior
Girls Project are being reorganized
this semester with a new teacher and
a new accompanist.
John B. Gwinn, who is an Arthur
Murray graduate, will instruct the
classes. Gwinn is a veteran of World
War II, having served in the Navy as
a lieutenant-commander. He has had
professional experiences in several
other cities.
Classes for the intermediate
group will begin at 7:30 p.m. Wed-
nesday, April 3, and at 7:30 p.m.
Thursday, April 4 for the beginning
group. Those wishing to register for
instruction should come to the
League at 7 p.m. on the night class-
es start for the group in which they
wish to be placed.
The fee for the lessons will be three
dollars for a series of eight lessons.
Any excess profits derived from the
project will be used for altruistic pur-
poses by the League.
Margaret Holk, who has accom-
panied many campus functions, in-
cluding this year's Junior Girls Play,
will play the piano for the dancers.
All classes will be taught in the
League.
Miss Ethel McCormick, social
diiector of the League, and Mr.
Gwinn will speak at the mass meet-
ing for hostesses which will be held
at 4:30 p.m. Wednesday in the
League.
All women who wish to work on
the dancing class project should at-
tend this meeting. JGP chairman
Ann Lippincott especially urged all
second-semester freshmen and those
who live in league houses to become
hostesses. "We feel that these wo-
men will derive the most benefit
from this project because of the op-
portunity it offers them to meet
other students," Miss Lippincott
said.
The purpose of this year's peace-
time Junior Girls Project is to broad-
en social opportunities for the cam-
pus, and help to reconvert activities
to a pre-war basis, according to Miss
Lippincott.
Chairmen of all projects must
hand in eligibility lists of all per-
sonnel to Miss Scanlon in Room 2,
University Hall before work on a
project begins.
Personnel reports on women in
League activities must be handed
in to the Merit-Tutorial box in
the Undergraduate Office in the
League or to Naomi Buehler ten
days after the event has occurred.
Tickets for VO Dance on Sale
At League, Union, Diagonal;
Ex-Navy Man To Lead Band
By M. J. TUTTLE
The music o- Ray Anthony, an ex-
Navy man, will be particularly ap-
propriate to the Veterans Organiza-
tion-sponsored Feather Merchants
Ball, which is to be held from 9 p.m.
to 1 a.m. Friday, March 29 at the In-
tramural Building.
Anthony's 19-piece civilian orches-
tra is currently playing at a St. Louis
hotel. Dee Keating, who is at her
best on smooth, low tunes, is starred
as the vocalist with Anthony's band.
In 1942 Anthony joined the Navy
and appeared on several broadcasts
at Great Lakes. He later toured the
Pacific for 18 months and played for
armed forces audiences at the Royal
Hawaiian Hotel in Honolulu.
His band was featured on armed
forces radio broadcasts, Command
Performance, G.L Journal, and Yank
Bandstand programs, and beamed to
armed forces personnel all over the
world. By virtue of its popularity as
the "Hottest Band in the Pacific," it
was awarded an "oscar" by the G.I.'s.
Ray Anthony was to the Pacific
G.I.'s what Johnny Desmond, an-
other Glen Miller protege, was to
servicemen in the European theater.
Roth were relatively unknown until
they entered the service, and each
rose to fame through the acclaim of
the critical armed forces audiences.
Tickets for the Feather Merchants
Ball may 1e purchased at the Union,
League, and on the diagonal. They
will continue to be sold only until the
quota is reached.
Decorations and programs will fol-
low a unique feather merchants
theme, but will be kept secret as a

MUSBE Sales I
Total $2,300
The Michigan Union Student Book
Exchange has finished compiling the
data on the number of books sold
and the amount of money which was
taken in, and in the light of these
figures has been pronounced a suc-
cessful venture by its managers, John
Houston and Nancy Tressel.
As a non-profit organization, its
main purpose was to offer students
books at reasonable prices to the
buyer, and a liberal return to the
seller. Texts were collected the last
week of the fall semester, and sold
througout the first week of this se-
mester.
A total of 3228 books was collect-
ed from various league houses,
dormitories, and sorority houses,
- from over 750 persons. Forty volun-
teer assistants working a total of
315 hours assisted the Exchange in
the classification, selling, and
checking of these texts and sup-
plies. Lois Kelso and Mary Hag-
gerstrom contributed the greatest
number of hours, according to Miss
Tressel.
About $2300 in checks have been
sent to those students whose books
were sold through the Exchange.
Books which were not sold were pre-
dominately those which are for
courses offered during the fall sem-
ester.
Many students left their unsold
books with the Exchange to be
sold next fall. Manager Houston
stated that the exchange has a
good supply of first-semester books
for next fall.
Assisting managers Houston and
Miss Tressel were Nancy Land and
Pat Williams, junior personnel as-
sistants.
"The chairmen would like to thank
the volunteers and students for their
invaluable aid and cooperation in
helping to make MUSBE the su..c-
cess it was," Miss Tressel stated.
Contributions

t -
Due Tuesday
House presidents of all organized
women's residences will continue the
collection of contributions for the
annual American Red Cross Drive

and no individual or house quotas
have been set. Last year women were
asked to contribute $1.25.
"All lists and envelopes must be
turned in by Tuesday at the League,"
reminded Jean Gaffney, League
Treasurer. Betsy Barbour and Mosh-
er have already turned in their in-
dividual and house contributions.
Seven of the women's dormitories
have volunteered to take charge of
the Red Cross collections in the two
local campus theatres starting Sun-
day through Saturday, March 30.
Martha Cook, Newberry, Barbour,
Mosher and Jordan Halls will each
sponsor the collections for one day
this week, and Stockwell for two

Tutors'
Meeting
!'
To Be Thursday
There will be a meeting of all tu-
tors at 4:30 p.m. Thursday in the
League.
Tutors are still needed in physics,
math, chemistry, and sociology. To
be eligible to tutor a woman must
have received an A in the subject or
a B if it is her major.
Freshmen may not be tutored until
their five week marks come out un-
less they have special permission
from their advisors.
A new note in American footwear
is the platform shoe. Perhaps the
reason for the increasing popularity
of these thick-soled shoes is that
they make walking on hard or wet
pavements less uncomfortable, and
make spike heels seem lower to the
wearer.
Platforms first appeared on the
beaches, where cork soles sometimes
two or three inches thick made walk-
ing on sand easier, Brightly colored,
tied with rope, and often with rope
or wooden soles, platforms are still
a prime favorite for beach wear.
