Ralph Flanagan's Orchestra To Play at Dance;
Vocalist Rita Hayes To Be Featured with Band
ON THE MARCH AGAIN:
Lantern Night To Fete Senior Coeds
I.
From stenographer to vocalist in
less than a day is the story of
Rita Hayes, featured girl vocalist
with Ralph Flanagan's orchestra,
appearing with the band at IFC
Ball from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m. Satur-
day in the Intramural Building.
Miss Hayes was a; medical sten-
ographer for a physician in
Wilkes-Berre, 'Penn. when her big
break came. In less than 24 hours
she was at the RCA-Victor New
York studio, cutting a record with
the Flanagan aggregation.
"IT WAS like a dream coming
true," explained Miss Hayes. One
morning Flanagan phoned at 3
- a.m. from Scranton Penn., intro-
ducing himself and then proceded
to ask her to audition at 9 a.m.
for a vocalist job he had open.
Miss Hayes had always hoped
to be a singer and sang with
local bands every chance she
had. It was a musician friend
that had recommended her to
Flanagan.
Promptly at .9 a.m. she audi-
tioned and the bandleader liked
her voice so much that he asked
her to fly to .New York immed-
iately to make a recording that
afternoon.
* * *
WITHIN A FEW hours she was
making the recording of "The
Gentleman Is a Dope," and won
the job.
Besides IFC Ball on Saturday,
other events including the House
Presidents' banquet Wednesday
and IFC Sing on Thursday will
round out the activities for the
annual IFC Week.
The House Presidents' dinner
will be held at 6:30 on Wednes-
day in the Union dining room. At-

awarded and Dr. George A. Peek
of the Political Science depart-
ment will speak.

itorium. Various sororities will

nities.
