sion from 4 to 6 p.m. today at the
WAB tennis courts.
Sponsored by the Women's Ath-
letic Association, the Tennis Club
f will meet every Friday from 4 to
6 p.m. In past years the club met
at 5 p.m. during the week but it
was discovered that there was not
enough time for active participa-
tion.
Miss Hyman invites all tennis
enthusiasts to come to the WAB
today even if it rains so that the
annual tournament held by the
club can be set up as soon as pos-
sible. Those who have any ques-
tions "should call her at 2-2545.

concert, will be Jim Tatum's Com-

the drums, the combo will include
many of Tatum's own compositions
in their part of the program.

vue. Drumming his way to first
place, he received the $100 award
in competition with ten musical
and dancing acts.
To add to the informal atmos-
phere of "Jadau" the ballroom will
be set up like a night club with
tables and comfortable chairs
taking the place of the regular
straight backs usually seen at
concerts.
