INFORMAL REUNION:
Alums Meet Old Pals
Through Service Bureau

High Flying

By ALAN LUCKOFF

"I wonder where I can find old
classmates?"
This query, which can be heard
many times on game Saturdays,
is being answered for many 'U'
alumni each weekend by the Union
Alumni Service.
The service, which runs a regis-
tration desk for alumni and a bul-
letin board where graduates may
post the location of their seat in
the stadium and where they'll be
after the game, has brought to-
gether many old classmates of 40
NSchedule New
Sides on Ends
Hf Angell Hall
A layer of Indiana limestone,
matching the stone of the original
building, will be put on the north
and south ends of Angell Hall
sometime this winter, according to
Plant department officials.
The limestone has been ordered
and is expected to arrive in a few
weeks. Meanwhile, workmen are
laying the foundations for the ad-
dition.
WHEN THE hall was originally
constructed, University officials
had the two end walls made of
brick, so that wings could eventu-
ally be added to either side.
However, with the new addi-
tion nearing completion, the
plan for the addition of wings
has been abandoned.
Numerous other changes have
been taking place as a result of the
new addition. A number of win-
dows have been blocked off at the
point where the addition meets
the new building, leaving several
classrooms and offices completely
windowless.
TO ADJUST to this loss of light,
offices have been combined and
windowless classrooms will be used
as projection rooms. In one case
this has been accomplished by
moving two partitions, blocking
off one door and building another.
All alterations were' so made
that no classroom would open onto
a new enclosed stairway, a viola-
tion of fire regulations, Plant Su-
perintendent Walter M. Roth ex-
plained.

UNION COUNCILMAN Harvey
Howard, '53, who directs the serv-
ice, reported that he has observed
many grads scan the board, stop
at a name and with an unmistak-
ably nostalgic look in their eyes,
announce to their companions
that this was the fellow who sat
next to them in English in 1904.
The registrants seem to have a
variety of motives for posting
their names. One balding grad,
a student in the pre-Ruthven
era, whispered to the staffman
at the desk that he hoped his
name would attract some of his
old girl friends.
The staffman didnt have the
heart to tell him that only one
woman has ever registered with
the alumni service.
* * *
THE HEAVIEST concentration
of registrants is from the group
who graduated between 1910 and
1930, Howard said.
However each week, many old-
sters dating back to the classes
of the last century post their
cards and hopefully wait for
some long forgotten but vague-
ly familiar face to appear. But,
as one class of '95 engineering
school graduate put it: "There
just aren't many of my old
friends around anymore."
On a recent Saturday morning,
one alumnus amazed the staffmen
by standing next to the desk and
greeting almost everyone who ap-
proached the desk very familiarly
and discussing old friends and
memories. Finally, after the man
left, an alumnus with whom he
had talked for quite some time re-
turned to the desk to see the man's
card.
"No wonder I didn't remember
him," he laughed, "He was grad-
uated 18 years before I was born."
'Panel on .East
Will Be Held
"Challenge of the Changing
East" will be discussed at 8 p.19-
tomorrow as four University pro-
fessors get together to discuss new
ideas in the United States about
the East.
Participating in the, discussion
will be Prof. Kenneth Boulding of
the economics department, Prof.
Douglas Crary of the geography
department, Prof. Frank Huntley
of the English department, and
Prof. Mischa Titiev of the an-
thropology department.
Sponsored by WSSF, the discus-
t sion will be held in the Architec-
ture Building, and will be mediated
by Frank Sulewski, regional ad-
visor of WSSF wh is coming
here from Chicago for the occa-
sion.

Little Heard'
Music Will
Be Played
'4
A unique concert of seldom per-
formed musical works will be
heard at 8:30 p.m. Sunday when
the Cleveland Symphony Orches-
tra performs at Hill Auditorium.
The Cleveland group, under the
direction of George Szell, will be
the fourth concert of the Choral
Union Series. The program will
include Brahms' "Tragic Overture,
Op. 81;" Bartok's "Divertimento
for String Orchestra" and Strauss'
"Ein Heldeleben."
* * *
THE BRAHMS work will open
the program It was performed
only once before in Ann Arbor over
fifty years ago. This was at the
final concert of the May Festival
in 1900, given by the Boston Fes-
tival Orchestra and conducted by
Emil Mollenhauer.
The first performance in Ann
Arbor of Bartok's "Divertimen-
to for String Orchestra" will
conclude the first half of the
program. Two years ago, Szell
conducted the Cleveland Sym-
phony in Bartok's "Concerto
for Orchestra" with great suc-
cess. These are the only occa-
sions when a major orchestra
has included this composer on
an Ann Arbor program.
The concluding number, "Ein
Heldenleben" (A Hero's Life) by
Richard Strauss is a complex mu-
sical masterpiece. It is being per-
formed as a special favor to the
Ann Arbor audience since it re-
quires extra men and rehearsals.
Its two previous performances
at Hill Auditorium were by the
Chicago Symphony at the 1934
May Festival and by the Boston
Symphony in 1935.
Red Feather
Drive Begins
Ann Arbor residents turned out
Sunday to start the Community
Chest Drive rolling toward its goal
of $175,600.
Highlighting the rally at Hill
Auditorium was the coronation of
Miss Red Feather, an Ann Arbor
high school senior, Sherle Swover-
land. She was crowned by banc
leader Freddie Yankovic, who en-
tertained at the rally.
Other divertissement during the
evening was provided by the Lyra
Male Chorus and the Ann Arbor
high school band. A skit, "If Mer
Played Cards as Women Do," and
a tableau depicting the 13 Com-
munity Chest activities concluded
the entertainment.

Foreign Students Hear PartA
Leaders at Workers' Meets

VAN

A group of foreign students re-
ceived an inside view of U.S. poli-
tics last weekend.
The five students, who are all
doing graduate work in journa-
lism, were guests in Birmingham,
Pontiac a n d Waterford, where
they heard 650 Democratic Party
workers addressed by Gov. G.
Mennen Williams and Senator
Blair Moody.
* * *
IMPRESSED BY the informality
of the occasion (Gov. Williams ap-
peared in one black and one brown
shoe), the visiting international
students decided that "politics are
politics the world over."
Senator To Talk
On WUOM Today
Senator Estes Kefauver, well
known ex-chairman of the Sen-
ate Crime Investigating Commit-
tee, who was heard on campus last
week, will be interviewed at 4 p.m.
today on WUOM's Campus News
Program.

Senator Moody mace a decid-
ed impression on Dounia Mrowa,
one of the few Arabic women in
journalism, by demanding that
his picture be taken with her.
L. J. J. Browers of the Nether-
lands, Allan Lundberg of Sweden,
Manuel Eduardo Rodriguez of
Guatemala and George Guisis of
Greece were also introduced to
Moody and Williams.
Other highlights of the trip,
made under the auspices of the
International Center, were visits
in "typical American homes" and
a tour of the Cranbrook founda-
tion.
After cramming a series of new
impressions into one weekend, the
travelers agreed that at last they
sympathized with American tour-
ists who attempt to see "every-
thing" in a short span of time.
Drivers, Riders

Students 'who wish rides home
or passengers in their cars fo
Thanksgiving weekend are urged
to contact the Union travel service

ces immediately.
