Nancy Baehre wishes to thank

Strains of "I'm Getting Senti-!
mental Over You" will fill the
Intramural Building at 9 p.m.
Saturday, Nov. 1 for "Autumn
Nocturne," dance sponsored by the
Student Legislature.
This popular number is the
theme song of Tommy Dorsey's
orchestra which will play from 9
p.m. to 1 a.m. for couples attend-
ing the dance. Late permission for
all women students has been
granted for the affair.
The Intramural building will be
decorated with familiar Halloween
and autumn scenes to fit the name
of the dance. Murals around the
walls will carry out this theme.
A mirrored sphere will revolve in
the center of the ceiling and cast
light onto the dancing couples.
"Autumn Nocturne" will be an
informal dance, with the women
wearing dresses and the men in
suits.
The dance, formerly known as
the Homecoming Dance, was post-
poned for a week after the other
homecoming festivities so the
committee could secure a name
band to play for the affair.
Last spring when the dance was
being planned, the committee had
a choice of getting a less-known
band to provide the music or hiring
Tommy Dorsey, who would be tra-
veling in this vicinity one week
later.
The latter choice was made on
the grounds that students would
rather hear Dorsey a week later.
Students picked Dorsey's ag-
gregation their two-to-one favor-
ite in a poll conducted by the J-
Hop Committee during registra-
tion.
He plays music in the sweet-
swing style, and will present a var-
iety of numbers known to Dorsey
fans. Dorsey himself is a compe-
tent musician along the classical
line.
"The Sentimental Gentleman"
is known in musical circles to be
the originator of the use of the
trombone as a solo instrument. Be-
fore his time it was used exclusive-
ly as a background rhythm in-
strument.
The bandleader started in busi-
ness in 1934 with his brother Jim-
my, and had a band that included
such names as Glenn Miller, Bob
Crosby and Ray McKinley.
Later Tommy formed a band on
his own several years later and
developed the style of music he
is still known for. Some of the ar-
rangements he has made popular
are "Marie," "Song of India," and
"Once in a While."
Tickets are on sale now in the
Administration Building and on
the Diagonal, and will also be sold
at the door the night of the dance.
The committee for "Autumn
Nocturne" includes members of
the Varsity Committee of the Stu-
lent Legislature. General chair-
men are Mike McNerney and Bob
Steinberg.
Coffee Hour
Hillel's weekly coffee hour
will be held from 4 to 5 p.m. to-
day at the Hillel building.

UN BAZAAR-For those who like to give Christmas presents that
are a little out of the ordinary, the UN Bazaar held yesterday, to-
day and tomorrow offers an opportunity. Foreign tapestries, jewel-
ry and other articles are on sale in the lobby of the League.
Many foreign students, not allowed to bring much money with
them, bring material, vases and jewelry and then sell them when
they get here. The profit from sales will be sent to the UNESCO
Book Fund.

cher Hall, the houses in West
Quadrangle, Phi Delta Phi, the
houses in South Quadrangle,
Theta Delta Chi, Chi Psi, Beta
Theta Pi, Alpha Delta Phi and
Sigma Chi will end the procession.
Since the judges will leave the
Union at 9 am. to follow these
routes, each house can estimate
from this list about what time the
judges will view its display.
The origin of the traditional
homecoming displays at the Uni-
versity is so ancient that no one
knows exactly when it was begun.
There is no evidence of any house
decorations back in 1898 when the
first Homecoming game was play-
ed between the alumni and the
Varsity.
Trophies were awarded in 1932
for the first time when silver cups
were donated by local merchants.
Theta Xi copped the prize that
year with a display that featured
a grandstand of Michigan fans
cherring as Minnesota Gophers
were trampled into the ground.
Women had no part in the con-
test until 1937 when IFC chal-
lenged sororities to compete with
them. Kappa Alpha Theta won
the prize for the sororities with a
display showing a man with a
football for a head dancing on the
lawn.
Manager Needed

Petitions for the position of
manager of the Bowling Club Aill
be due at 5 p.m. today in Nancy
Fitch's box in the League Under-

morrow.
Women interested in learning
how to bowl "strikes" instead of
"gutter balls" are invited to join
the Bowling Club, sponsored by the

ience. Coeds interested in joining
the club may call Pat Mann,

ganization until a new manager is

by paying a small fee for each line.
These alleys are open afternoons
and evenings.

others in their residences are urged

to all freshman and new students
on campus to attend the Interna-
tional Club's tea from 4:30 to 6
p.m. today at the International
Center.
Upperclassmen have made it a
weekly habit to drop in at these
teas and exchange ideas with their
foreign friends.
Officers of the club also hope
the freshmen will adopt this hab-
it which has become a University
tradition.
Frequently speakers from other
lands passing through Ann Arbor
attend these functions and give
extemporaneous talks.
