* Meeting Slated
By Dance Club
Men, Women Invited
To Informal Lecture
SBeginners as well as more ad-'
vanced dancers are welcome to
join the co-recreational Modern
Dance Club, which will hold its
organizational meeting at 7:30 p.
m. today in Barbour Dance Studio.
The first meeting is for the
' purpose of acquainting new mem-
bers with the club and the art of
, modemn dance. Any man or wo-'
man on campus is eligible for
membership.
AN INFORMAL lecture demon-
stration will be given and refresh-
ments will be served. Doris Melle-
ky, manager of the dance club,
* suggests that students wear either
dance work clothes or jeans:
The club, organized many
years ago by a small group of
students interested in the new
art form of modern dance, con-
centrates on studying tech-
niques, devising original compo-
sitions and working toward per-
formances.
Instruction will be offered in
basic technique and elements of
dance composition, and for those
* with previous experience an ad-
vanced technique session will be
held.
* * *
THE CLUB MEETINGS serve as
practical workshops for individual
ideas and expression,
Enthusiasts in the field de--
scribe the art as an expression
of the feel of a certain thing
rather than the imitation of
the thing.
Plans have been made for in-
formal workshop presentations
and discussions as well as for
public performances during the
course of the year.
* * *
THESE PROGRAMS encourage
the members to do original cho-
reography and give an opportunity
for moder dance lovers to see
the accomplished work.
A major dance festival and
Christmas program are also being
planned by the manager and her
advisor.
Last spring both the Modern
Dance Club and Ballet Club parti-
+, cipated in the Inter Arta, .Dance
Festival. T e Modern Dance
group also performed before pa-
tients at the University Hospital
and took part in a joint perform-
ance w i t h Wayne University,
Michigan State College and other
dance groups held in Detroit last
year.

University President's" Wife Interviewed
Q* * *

Hatchers Plan
To Begin Life
In New Home
Want to marry a prospective
college president?
You might try teaching a lang-
uage. At least, this is the man-
ner in which Mrs. Harlan H.
Hatcher met her husband.
* * *
ALTHOUGH Mrs. Hatcher had
already been introduced to Mr.
Hatcher by mutual friends, they
became well acquainted while he
was observing her classes in
French and German at the Uni-
versity high school in Columbus,
Ohio. At that time, he was a pro-
fessor of English at the Univer-
sity and their closer acquaint-
anceship led into courtship and
marriage.
Born in New Haven, Connec-
ticut, Mrs. Hatcher received a
Bachelor of Arts degree from
Vassar college for women and
began her teaching career in
Columbus the following year.
She received her Masters' de-
gree from Ohio State Univer-
sity several years later.
Interested in music, reading and
the theater, Mrs. Hatcher has
never really had the time for
"sure enough hobbies" The at-
tractive brunette, blue-eyed and
of medium height, considers "be-
ing a wife and mother a full time
job."
THE BEAUTY OF Ann Arbor,
its woods and rolling terrain, have
endeared the town to the Hatch-
ers. They have found everyone
extremely friendly and hospitable,
and they expect to like it here
very much.
Although they have been as-_
sociated with a university since
the beginning of their married
life, President and Mrs. Hatcher
have never before been situated
in the "heart of the campus,"
and they enjoy being in the
midst of things.
However, daughter Anne Linda,
five years old, is a little more du-
bious. After observing Clements'
library, she suggested: "I think
.it would be nice to build some
houses there so some children
could move next door."
THE HATCHERS have oneother
child, Bobbie, who is seven years
old and enrolled in the second
grade at the University Elemen-
taryschool, where Anne has en-
tered kindergarten.
Engrossed now In the task of
remodeling their new quarters,
Mrs. Hatcher has still found
Dance Class Tickets
Still on Sale inLeague
Ticket sales for League Dance
Classes will continue from 7 to 9
p.m. today on the second floor of
the League. The eight week course
will begin Tuesday and Wednes-
day, and the fee is $4.

HARD AT WORK-Mrs. Harlan H. Hatcher is seen busily wield-
ing a dustcloth in the study of her new home. Engrossed in a
round of remodeling and interior decorating, Mrs. Hatcher says
that she hopes the house will be ready for partial occupancy
by the end of this week. The Hatchers do not expect to be com-
pletely settled for several more weeks.

* * *<
time for numerous teas, ban-
quets, and other social func-
tions.
Plans are progressing for the
Hatchers to occupy at least part
of the house by the end of this
week, ,although they will not be
completely settled for several
more weeks.

Due to its age, the house has
needed a large amount of remod-
eling for preservation. Included
in the Hatchers as yet unachieved
plans is a play corner in the yard
for the children. A University
woman will live in the Hatcher
home to assist with the care of
Anne and Bobbie.
