Miss Fritze Gareis and Miss Bet-
ty'Ludwig will represent the Uni-

Haines, Dick Haymes and the Pied
Pipers.
The list of bandsmen who
were once affiliated with his ag-
gregation includes the late Glen
Miller, the late Bunny Berigan,
Bob Crosby, Ray McKinley and
Gene Krupa.
Tommy Dorsey was born in
Mahonoy Plain, Pennsylvania on
November 19, 1905. His ABC's in-
terested him far less than his Do
Re Mi's. But his father, Who owned
a brass band, made sure he was
educated in reading and writing
as well as in music.
S* *
TOMMY ATTENDED school in
nearby Shenandoah, where he
played both baseball and football
whenever he found time. But his
big interest was still music.
Tommy and his brother Jim-
my learned to play every instru-
ment in a brass band, and they
both became utility men for their
father.
Tommy forsook music and school
simultaneously to become a deliv-
ery boy for a meat market. Jim-
my was working in a coal mine.
The prospects looked bright for
neither of them so they came up
with the idea to pool their milsical
resources-for a profit.
* * *
THEY FORMED the Dorsey
Brothers Novelty Band, and played
for dances in the neighborhood. A
few years later they were appear-
ing as the "Scranton Sirens." In
the next ten years they worked for
Whiteman, Vallee and Kostelanetz.
Later they broke up and each
started his own band.
The Varsity Committee of
the Student Legislature will
bring Tommy Dorsey and his
band here for the former Home-
coming Dance, which was post-
poned in order to get the band
students picked as their favorite
in a poll at registration.
Tickets for the informal dance
are on sale on the Diagonal, Ad-
ministration Building and Angell
Hall for the price of $3.60 per
couple. This week the house man-
agers in fraternities and men's
dormitories will have tickets for
sale.

that both poor and excellent play-
ers may enjoy themselves, the
players are divided into two
groups. -
Those people who are mainly
interested in meeting new people
and playing socially will be in the
first group.
The real bridge fans will be in
the second group, a duplicate
bridge group.
Prizes are given at each session
and will be given throughout the
semester.

out several arbitrary bids, and
whoever is the first to make one
of the bids wins a prize.
PETTICOAT POLITICS:
Organizational Meeting To Be Announced
For Campus League of Women Voters
An erganizational meeting to
plan the year's activities of the
Campus League of Women Voters
will be announced within the next
two weeks.
Any woman student, regardless
of age, who is interested in be-
coming a member of the Campus
League is urged to attend.

THE CAMPUS LEAGUE gives
women students, whether or not
they are 21, a chance to express
their interest in government in a
very constructive way. It fulfills
a need on campus for a political
organization that is strictly non-
partisan in outlook, and gives an
opportunity to gain experience in
citizen participation.
The group is organized in
much the same way as other
League of Women Voters or-
ganizations throughout the
country, and works in coopera-
tion with the Ann Arbor League.
Through its affiliation with the
total League structure, the Cam-
pus League can draw on the ex-
perience and information of the
local, state and federal organiza-

valuable experience which they
will be able to use in their own
communities after graduation.

THE CAMPUS LEAGUE is con-
cerned with all phases of govern-
ment, from the international level
down to the University level. From
this broad field, the membership
chooses certain projects on which
to work.
Because of the coming elec-
tions, the immediate project has
been voter's service. In connec-
tion with this, the group recent-
ly gave a radio broadcast con-
cerned with absentee voting and
the soldier's ballot.
Another part of the project will
be the demonstration of the voting
machines which will be on display
next week in the Ann Arbor State
Street Bank.
ON ELECTION DAY itself, the
Campus League will perform a
baby-sitting service so that all
Ann Arbor residents will more
easily be able to vote.
At an informal coffee hour
sponsored recently by the organ-
ization, Prof. James C. Pollock,
chairman of the political science
department, gave his views on
the Campus League.
Prof. Pollock feels that it is
important for students to take

advantage of opportunities for
learning about politics and govern-
ment during their college careers.
He stated that being a good citi-
zen involves more active partici-
pation than merely voting every
two or four years.
