Reviving an old tradition, the wom-
en and men students of the physical
education departments, together with
the members of the M-Club, will
sponsor the Olympic Ball to be held
from 8 p.m. to midnight Wednesday,
May 29, in the League Ballroom.
Carl Bird and his twelve piece or-
chestra from Muskegon, will pro-
vide the music for the dance. The
all-campus affairs will feature a
global theme, with the League Ball-
room completely decorated. A huge
globe of the world will dominate the
room.
Olympic Ball will be semi-formal
and will be open to the entire stu-
dent body. It is being held on the
eve of the Declaration Holiday and
late permission will be granted to
coeds.
"Olympic Ball under the sponsor-
ship of the three sports organizations
Volunteer workers are needed to
serve on all committees for Olym-
pic Ball. Any student desiring to
work on a committee is asked to
telephone one of the committee
chairmen for further informa-
tion. The publicity, tickets and
decoration committees especially
need additional members.
Coed Positions
To Be Disclosed
Announcement of coed activity po-
sitions for 1946-47 will be made Mon-
day, May 13, in Rackham Lecture
Hall at Installation Night, an annual
event for all women on campus.
Positions to be revealed include
senior members of League Council,
members of Judiciary Council, League
junior assistants, and the central
committee and chairman of JGPlay
and Soph Cabaret.
Among the other postions to be
announced are board members of
Panhellenic and Assembly and orien-
tation advisers. In addition, Mortar-
board, senior women's honor society;
Scroll, senior honor society for af-
filiated women; and Senior Society,
which honors independent senior
women, will tap. Adhering to a new
policy, the honor societies will dis-
pense with their usual march through
the aisles of the auditorium and will
go directly to the women whom they
are to tap.
A new innovation will be a recep-
tion to be held in the League Ball-
room immediately following the In-
stallation program in the Rackham
Building. The reception will offer
free cokes and will provide an op-
portunity for University women to
meet the new League Council and
Judiciary Council members and new-
ly-tapped members of the honor so-,
cieties.
Sororities are requested by Betty3
Vaughn, vice-president of League
Council, to make Installation Night(
a house function or count it als a3
house meeting.1
To Be Featured'
At Annual Dance
Raymond Scott, who will bring his
orchestra here May 24 for the third
annual Pan-Hel-Assembly ball
'Heavenly Daze," is the composer of
such novelty songs as "Toy Trumpet,"
"Huckleberry Duck," and "Twilight
in Turkey."
The musical aggregation, which he
leads, will play for dancing from 9
o.m. to 1 a.m. in the IntramuralE
Building, and consists of the full-
ized band and two distinct groups of
six and seven men respectively.
Quintet is Sextet
Although the Scott Quintet, which
has introduced his specialty numbers,
is composed of six men, the leader ex-
plains that he likes the sound of
Quintet better than the more accur-
ate Sextet.
The seven-man small band is
Scott's new Secret Seven. From this
recently created organization- have
'ome such numbers as "Invisible
Ink," "Carrier Pigeon," and "Careful
Conversation at a Diplomatic Func-
tion."
Dance Repertoire Promised
The full-sized orchestra plays the
regular dance repertoire, which also
includes several Scott originals. Dor-
othy Collins is vocalist with the
group.
Due to the difficulty in obtaining
male formal attire, the dance will be,
semiformal, Collee Ide, Gamma Phi'
Beta, and Margaret Thompson,
Stockwell, general co-chairmen, have
announced.
No restriction has been placed on
the sending of corsages, and late
permission of 1:30 a.m. has been
granted to women students attending
the dance.

By JEAN WHITNEY
T HE SHORTIE, whether it be a
simple classic, or belted with a
softer touch, is an All-American style
that makes an ideal all-purpose coat
for any wardrobes.
This versatile coat comes in many
different versions including the pilot,
mandarin, cardigan, straight, belted,
and swagger lines. The belted shortie;
which either has a drawstring belt or
is tightly tied or buckled, empha-
sizes the broad-shouldered narrow-
waisted look.
ONE OF THESE belted coats has
raglan sleeves and a cardigan
neckline. Another contrasts rich
black braid trim with soft spring
colors. These coats also can be had
with full sleeves, tightly buttoned at
the wrist, or deep armhole sleeves
either plain or with wide cuffs. The
belts on many of these coats are de-
tachable and they are equally smart
with or without the belt.
The straight shorties also have a
variety of unusual details. One good
looking coat seen recently is very full
in back with the tuxedo front and
cuffs of a contrasting color. It has
button back revers extending from a
tiny collar. Another of this style is
double breasted with slit pockets and
a convertible collar. The mandarin
style has short slits at the sides and
when trimmed with gold or silver
thread embroidery makes a beautiful
and fashionable evening coat..
MANY OF THE NEW shorties fea-
ture unusual pockets, different
looking collars, shoulder pleats, and
interesting yoke and button trim.
Checked and plaid materials are used
effectively by cutting them on the
bias in contrast with straight up and
down fabric. Bold black and white
checks are popular as are plaids and
blurred stripes. Shetland-type weave,
menswear flannel, suede cloth, wool
gabardine, and other individual tex-
tures and weaves are in demand.
Brilliant colors, tangerine, tur-
quoise, jade, scarlet, neon blue, coral,
and kelly, and the suave neutrals,
corn silk, silver web, king tan, eagle
gray, surf, white wine, and pussy-
willow are definitely in the limelight
this spring with dull and drab shades
in the background.
The length of these brief but
bright coats looks better than ever
over narrow skirts. As spring's short-
cut to smartness they seem to be here
for a long stay.

We have excellent recordings of May Festival program
selections and especially recommend Ormandy's presentation of
Prokofieff's "Alexander Nevsky" with Jennie Tourel and thej
Westminister Choir. This cantata, which is one of the most
stirring of contempory works, has been performed only a few
times in this country, but we feel certain that it will soon be-
come a very popular work.
