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.
