A limited number of tickets for the affair will go on sale at 10 a.m. to- day in Room 2, University Hall. All proceeds of the event will go to the Fresh Air Camp Fund, and will be utilized to purchase needed equip- ment for the summer camp, and to extend facilities for student use dur- ing the year. Weems' orchestra, formerly with the Fibber McGee and Molly pro- gram, has been reorganized since the war, and features vocalists ' Shirley Richards and Larry Noble. Perhaps the best-known member of the band is Tiny Martin, who spe- cializes in novelty numbers on the bass. His rendition of "Flight of the Bumblebee" has been compared to that of concert violinists, and he's the only musician in the busi- ness able to play his bass like a violin, held under the chin.

Play Classes For Children To Be Initiat ed Beginning tomorrow, the Univer- sity of Michigan Department of Physical Education for Women will sponsor play and rhythm classes for Ann Arbor children between the ages of three and ten. Groups will meet for six-week ses- sions. The first session lasts from Nov. 9 to Dec. 14, and the second ses- sion from Feb. 15 to Mar. 22. The children will be supervised and taught by physical education stu- dents as a part of their training pro- gram. Three to five-year-olds will be taught rhythms from 9:30 to 10 a.m., and stories and crafts from 10 to 10:30 a.m. Games and self-testing ac- tivities have been planned for six to seven-year-olds from 10 to 10:30 a.m., and dance from 10:30 to 11 a.m. The program for children from eight to ten will include rhythms from 10 to 10:30 a.m., and games and self-test- ing activities from 10:30 to 11 a.m. HIGH SCHOOL SHOWGIRL-Ann Crowley, 16, studies her lessons in a Broadway theatre where she took over the star role in "Oklahoma" as understudy to regular Betty Jane Watson, who became ill By LOIS KELSO MUCH EFFORT has been devoted lately to trying to pin the beef shortage on somebody, some blaming the OPA, some blaming the :neat ;>ackers, some calling it a British plot to boost the sales of Australian mutton and oth- ers tracing it to a Communist scheme to undermine our American 'institu- tions. One of my closer relatives is all for exercising the spirit of. Franklin Roosevelt and asking some leading questions. All these explanations seem to me rather superficial. I believe we must probe more deeply before we discover the fundamental cause of the trouble. FIRST, we must ask ourselves where beef comes from, or used to come from. The answer to that one is cattle. No one has organized the cat- tle yet, so a non-producing strike on their part cannot be tIhe answer to our problem. Next, we must ask where cattle come from. The right answer is way out West, where men are men. The West is still there, bless the Texas Chamber of Commerce, so the reason for our difficulty must lie elsewhere. NOW WE ASK, who raises those cattle? Here, I think, we have the ex- planation we have been looking for, because cowboys raise those cattle- you know, strong, silent, manly people who roll their own cigarettes and drink more than the Michigan college boy says he can. An enterprising, forward-looking type if there ever was one, the American cowboy knows when he's well off. With the entertainment situation what it is, anyone who can twirl a rope, subordinate his per- sonality to a horse, or just look virile is nowhere if he sticks around a bunch of cattle. WHAT NORMAL, red-blooded young American would expose himself to ' the discomforts of an outdoor life when he could be sitting around a nice warm movie studio, riding around a well-lit arena for half an hour a day at a New Jersey rodeo, or making passes at the guests in a'dude ranch? A bright boy with the right press agent can do a lot better by the wife and kiddies endorsing breakfact food than he can ruining.the shape of his legs on a horse, and Scotch does more than malt can to justify God's ways to man. The long-striding, quick-drawing individuals who make Saturday matinees such a risk must have come from someplace. Things like that don't just happen. Apparently the boys saw the path leading from drudgery to fame and they went that-a-way. I on't know why nobody else thought of this first, but by now I'm con- vinced that the blame for the beef shortage rests on the money-mad Amer- ican cowboy, and it couldn't happen to a nicer bunch.
