E PIT Two Teams Schedule, Frosh Weekend Stunts Women Begin Training for 'Whirled Series,' To Be Held Saturday as Part of Annual Project (C>-- With Frosh Weekend coming up Friday and Saturday, both the Maize and the Blue teams are planning stunts and skits to at- tract attention to their respec- tive dances. Members of the "Blue Team of the Michigan League" opened their spring training series before vacation on the Diagonal. Warm- ing up for the series, to be pre- sented Saturday in the League "Stadium" the women wore typi- cal baseball outfits, complete with sneakers and caps. * * * THE WARM-UP session began with calisthenics on the library steps. Led by publicity chairman Barb Watson and stunt chairman Marcia Nelson, the team went through the exercises before be- ginning their practice game. While the Blue team "batted the ball around," announcer Bill Williams interviewed team members as they took the mound. According to the team members, Williams found that "the dance was sure to be a hit." He was told to tell the fellows that "even if they'd struck out three times, try again." ENTITLED "Whirled Series," the dancewill be held from 9 p.m. to midnight Saturday in the Leagt' Ballroom. Ted Smith and his orchestra will play for this dance, which is boy-bid. Tickets, at $1.50 per couple, can be purchased this week at the Un- ion, the League and on the Diag- onal. To further publicize their dance, Blue Team members celebrated "Blue Monday" yesterday. Dressed completely in blue, team members sported baseball caps or blue bows and pennants. To complete the baseball atmos- phere, the Burton Tower carillon echoed to the strains of "Take Me Out to the Ballgame." Many members of the team also roller- skated to class. Using their baseball theme for all phases of the dance, the Blue team is hoping to carry off the trophy awarded to the winning team after Frosh Weekend each year. -Daily-Malcolm Shatz FROSH WEEKEND--Warming up for the "Whirled Series" are JoAnn Niemann, Marg Smith and Graechen Becker, all members of the Blue team stunts committee. The dance will be held from 9 p.m. to midnight Saturday in the League Ballroom. Annual Sof tball Tournament To Begin for House Teams I Riley's Capitol Market Open every evening until 1 :00 Sunday until Midnight1 ENTERTAINING NEEDS FOR EVERY PARTY OCCASION With a cry of "play ball," com- petition will begin tomorrow in the annual all-campus women's softball tournament, sponsored by the Women's Athletic Association. Fifty-two coed teams have been entered in the competition, which will be held on Palmer Field. EACH TEAM entered will con- sist of from 10 to 12 players, a scorer and a base umpire. Instead of the seven players as was form- erly required on the field, this year eight players will be needed before a game becomes official. In another rule change, there will be two base umpires on the field, with one woman covering first base and the other calling all plays at second base. An official plate umpire will make decisions at third base and home plate and will have the pow- er to overrule any decisions made by the base umpires. « s .. IN HOUSES that have more than one team, the same woman may serve as base umpire for all teams. She may also be base um- pire for one team and a player for another. For the first time, the tour- nament will be run in "A" and "B" rounds, with teams losing their first games participating in the "B" bracket. Each team will be allowed two cancellations before being dropped from the tournament. All cancel- lations must be made by calling Pat Texter, 2-3159, by 1 p.m. Mon- day of the week the game is sched- uled. The schedule for this week is as follows.

I By PAT TEXTER One of the first major symphony orchestras to include women in.its ranks was the Philadelphia Orch- estra, which will be heard in Hill Auditorium in the six concerts of the sixteenth annual May Festi- val April 30 through May 3rd. The first woman musician to be employed by the orchestra was Edna Phillips, who is well known to Ann Arbor audiences. She ap- peared with the group as harpist from 1930 to 1946. Since the time when Miss Phillips joined the group, Eugene Ormandy has included at least four or five women players in the orchestra each year. Among these are Marilyn Costello, Mar- cella De Gray, Elsa Hilger, Lois Putlitz and Veda Reynolds. Marilyn Costello, who occupies the position of solo harpist, has seen service with several orches- tras. Included in her performances are a season with the Cleveland Orchestra and an engagement with Erno Rapee at Radio City Music Hall. Miss Costello looks back at her early musical efforts as the more creative period of her life. Since then most of her time has been spent learning the skills needed as a harpist. It was while she was in high school that she became inter- ested in the harp, winning a na- tional high school award. At the suggestion of her teacher in Cleveland, she went East to study with the celebrated Carlos Salzedo. Marcella De Gray, the Orches- tra's second harpist, is one of its newest members. After graduation from high school in Philadelphia, she attended Temple University f or two years. Transferring to the Juilliard In- stitute in New York on a scholar- ship, which included training on her chosen instrument, she was able to study with Marcel Grand- jany. After four seasons with the Metropolitan Opera Orchestra from 1948 to 1952, she went to Philadelphia. The first woman celist in any major orchestra was Elsa Hilger, I Seniors.. who shares the first desk of the cello section. At the time she was in engaged in 1935, she was the orchestra's first woman musician, with the exception of harpists. Beginning her studies at the age of nine in Vienna, she came to America in 1922. with her two sisters. The wife of a Philadelphia dentist, she occupies the same seat in the orchestra as that.held by her father-in-law in 1901. Lois Putlitz, who doubles and sometimes triples on the violin, piano and celsta, has also been with the Philadelphia Orchestra for more than a decade. Born in Omaha, Neb., she played as a child with the Holly- wood Bowl Orchestra. Since that time she has studied with Carl Flesch and Efrem Zimbalist, along with spending several sum- mers in Europe. Veda Reynolds, a member of the first violin section, joined the or- chestra in 1943. Her start toward a musical career came, about as a 'result of a family musical back- ground, as her father was con- certmaster of the Denver Sym- phony Orchestra. *LAST WEEK to order COMMENCEMENT ANNOUNCEMENTS SAMPLES AVAILABLE FOR YOUR INSPECTION Window open in Administration Bldg.
