Tn 1821, a state legislative act
changed the name officially to the
University of Michigan, and in 1837,
when the state was admitted to the

regents decided that a new soal was
necessary for the new school, and so
on April 4, 1843, a new design was
authorized.

Decorations for the dance will fol-
low the traditional theme with a huge
elide rule in the middle of the dance
floor. A model engineering arch will
be built over the doorway, and carica-
tures of various engineering profes-
sors will be displayed along the cor-
ridor leading to the ballroom. The
'walls of the ballroom will be deco-
rated with insignia of the engineering
societies. The dance programs will
be of blue leather with a gold slide
rule on the cover.
Orrin Tucker, whose renditions of
"Billy" and "Oh, Johnny, Oh" helped
pave his way to fame, has also com-
posed some hit tunes of his own.
Among them are "Especially for
You" and "My Resistance Is Low."
Tucker's band, which features the
vocals of Scotty Marsh, was first or-
ganized when he was in high school.
At Northwestern University he played
for various campus affairs, but left
his studies when he received an offer
to play in New Orleans.
After enlarging his band, Tucker.
toured the South and Middle West.
The band also made a number of
guest radio appearances, and played
on the Hit Parade program.
