First JG Play
Production
Held in 1904
By JEAN WHITNEY
J".3ior Girls' Play has been
:resented annually since 1904 in
honor of graduating women.
The first production was a sim-
>1e play presented by six junior
-O(ds in Sarah Caswell Angell
Sall in Barbour Gymnasium. The
'ollowing year, "Every Senior" was
4taged "Fr the warning and
moral awakening of the senior
girls."
Other Performances Held
In 1912 a second performance,
which was open to all women on
2ampus, was given. "The Come-
back" in 1915 was performed once
In Toledo, and "Yankie Yogie,"
1916. had a performance in De-
Groit. The play was not opened to
men in Ann Arbor until 1923 when
it was staged at the Whitney
Theatre, downtown.
From 1922 to 1928 the proceeds
from the play were added to the
League building fund. JG Play
was very elaborate at this time,
many times having a week's run.
Since 1920 the play has been pre-
vented in Lydia Mendessohn
Theatre.
Iave Varied Themes
Many and varied themes have
been given, including "For the
Love of Pete" in 1928, "A Feather
in Her Cap" in 1937 and "The
Mulberry Bush" in 1938. In 1942
"No Questions Asked," a musical
comedy, featured scenes in New
York, on a dude ranch, in Sun
Valley and Hollywood and at the
University.
For several years the plays
were written by graduate students,
alumnni,'and even professional
writers. "Take It from There"
and "There's Room for All," staged
in 1945 and 1946 respectively,
were written, acted, directed and
produced by junior women, as is
this year's production, "The Best

te semi- formal dance sponsored
bny thei students of the School of
Business A dinist atio iwhich
vi11 be held from 9 to 12:30 p.m. on
Friday in the Union Ballroom.
The last big dance of the winter

tra. Outstanding engagements of
the "Dance with Joy" orchestra
include leading hotel ballrooms in
Chicago, Philadelphia, and San
SPrancisco, as well as Columbia,
Mutual, and National Broadcast-

auguration ball and three con-
secutive seasons as the official
