Joint Concert
Will Include
Cornell Men
Booming voices from two men's
Glee Clubs will join forces during
Cornell Weekend to present a con-
cert at 8:30 p.m. on Saturday,
Nov. 8 in Hill Auditorium.
With the resumption of the Cor-
nell-Michigan football rivalry
comes a host of entertainment pos-
sibilities for that big weekend,
sparked by the joint concert to be
given by the University Men's
Glee Club and the Cornell Men's
Glee Club.
Last year's concert given by
these two famous glee clubs
thrilled a capacity crowd during
the Cornell-Michigan festivities at
Ithaca, New York.
The packed house and the gen-
eral success of the concert prompt-
ed the University Glee Club to
plan a return engagement with
the Cornell Glee Club this year in
conjunction with the football game
here.
Tickets for thebconcert have
been made available to alumni
groups all over the country rep-
resenting both universities. Sev-
eral groups including the Detroit
U. of M. Club and Cornell club
have already reserved blocks of
seats on the main floor of the au-
ditorium for the perfomance.
Tickets for the concert, ranging
in price from $2.20 to $1.50 and 90
cents are now available to students
using the mail order blank that
appeared in The Daily yesterday.
Campus sales of concert tickets
will begin during the week before
the performance.
The $2.20 seats include the three
central sections of the main floor
along with the first eight rows of
the three central sections of the
first balcony.
Block B, the $1.50 tickets, in-
clude the two side sections of the
main floor, and first balcony along
with the last seven rows of the
three central sections of the first
balcony. The top balcony seats are
priced at 90 cents.

ced the following names of

ACTIVITY PLUS:
WAA Plans Busy Schedule

EDITOR'S NOTE: This is the sec-
ond in a series of articles dealing
with the activities on campus open
to women.
By DOROTHY McELROY
One women's organization on
campus which offers a varied field
of activities is the Women's Ath-
letic Association.
This organization, headed by
President Nancy Fitch, sponsors
14 sport clubs, three dance clubs,
and several social events, includ-
ing Michigras and Lantern Night.
* * *
UPON ENTERING the Univer-
sity, every woman automaticallyj
becomes a member pf this organi-.
zation and is eligible for its activ-
ities.
Regardless of her experience
or limits on physical activity, ev-
ery coed who Wishes to partici-
pate in sports and other WAA
functions will find a club in the
association that suits her inter-
ests and abilities.
Ten of the clubs in WAA open
their membership to women only
and are headed by managers se-
lected by the senior board after'
a process of petitioning and inter-
viewing .
SOME of the activities in which
women students are able to com-I
pete with each other include bas-
ketball, bowling, golf, softball, and
tennis.

"Aqua maids" are invited to
membership in Michifish, a
women's club for better-than-
average swimmers. Each year
this club holds try-outs for girls
who wish to become members.
Proving that it has a varied field
of activities, WAA and a board of
men and women students jointly
sponsor eight co-recreational clubs
at the University.
- *
BALLET, badminton, ice skat-
ing, and riding are only a few of
the sports offered by the co-recre-
ational groups. Others welcoming
both men and women members
are the Modern Dance, Folk and
Square Dance, Softball and Town
and Country Clubs.
One of the traditional events
sponsored by the WAA is the
Lantern Night Sing. On the
night of the festivities groups
from independent houses, soror-
ities, and league houses compete
for the sing and posture cups.
Any woman who enjoys singing
is eligible to be a member of her
house choir.
Michigras is a huge carnival
weekend that is sponsored by WAA
and the Union. This big event,
which occurs every other year,
features thrill rides, colorful
booths, student entertainment, and
a Michigras parade down State
Street.
Since this is the alternate year,
the big event this spring will be
the Tennis Ball, an open-air dance
on the Palmer Field Tennis Courts.
Sports activities are not limited
to campus-wide functions. In the
women's residences are groups
that carry on inter-house tourna-
ments in volleyball, basketball,
ping-pong, and softball.
Playing on regular house teams
is an activity that affords a wom-
an a short period of recreation,
and enables her to meet and make
friends with other women in her
living quarters.
