SUNDAY, OCTOBER 13, 1953 THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE nFV League Petitioning Remains Open Group Plans Claude Thornhill Orchestra To Provide Music Interviews Scheduled Next Week Help wanted-No experience ne- cessary! Although experience helps if you're interested in petitioning for a job on the Women's League, the Interviewing and Nominating Committee stresses that it is your enthusiasm, interest and ideas for the position that really count. * * * THERE ARE still many fill-in posts open at the League for which interested women may petition. These petitions are obtainable from house activities chairmen and are due in the Undergraduate office of the League. Interviewing will be held Mon- day, Wednesday and Thursday, and coeds may sign up for an interview when they return their petitions. At these interviews, the Inter- viewing and Nominating Commit- tee discusses the woman's peti- tion with her and asks any per- tinent questions about the post. FOR THESE interviews, the coed should be prepared to give a summary of her plans, organi-. zation and ideas for improvement. She should also remember that not all the members of the com- mittee will have read the petition so she should not hesitate to re- peat anything she was written. Students who want help with their petitions may obtain as- sistance from the activities chairman of the house, who can explain something about the post and help with the writing of the petition. Members of the Interviewing and Nominating committee will also be available during their of- fice hours to help women organize their petitions. TWO OTHER valuable sources of information, found in the Lea- gue Library, are the President's Reports and copies of petitions submitted in previous years. Topics usually included in the petition are experience, includ- ing high school activities, col- lege activities qualifications, and perhaps any subjects you have taken that might pertain to the job. You should also include the duties of the job as you under- stand them, and the organization of your committee and methods for carrying this out. IF YOU HAVE any criticism of the job as it has been run, include that along with suggestions for improvement.

ROUND ROBIN: WAA Hockey Squad Beats MSC,Albion in Tourney Various Chance Games World University Service, which coordinates funds collected on! campuses throughout the world for! destitute students, will sponsor "WUS-Capade," a carnival Friday, November 20 in Lane Hall. Organizations all over campuses are being urged to put up booths for the vent, which is similar to Michigras on a smaller scale. Such things as refreshment booths and chance games are in- cluded in the plans for the carni- val, the proceeds from which will go to WUS. * * * ANOTHER EVENT in this year's intensified campaign will be a bucket drive scheduled for Oct. 28. One of the groups that has shown a great interest in WUS projects is the Sociological De- partment which has volunteered to take over a bucket for the drive. Proceeds from these and other projects are used for such things as building tuberculosis sanitor- iums and health clinics, and sup- plying textbooks and food and clothing. Funds are collected on campuses all over thenworld and allocated to where the need is greatest. Lately, most aid has been going to stud- ents in Asia. WUS, organized several years ago as World Student Service Fund, is sponsored internationally by the World's Student Christian Federation, Pax Romana-IMCS{ and the World Union of Jewish Students. * * * IT IS administered by a head- quarters staff in Geneva, Switzer- land, and works closely with agen- cies of the United Nations, non- governmental university organiza- tions and national unions of stud- ents. A featured event during home- coming weekend, the annual all- campus dance will be sponsored by' the Student Legislature. MUSIC BY Claude Thornhill! and his orchestra will provide the downbeat for couples attending the' traditional dance, while the Hal- lowe'en theme will prevail in the! decorations and programs. Although the dance will not1 be formal, coeds will have a chance to show-off their best "dressy" dresses. Claude Thornhill, who was fea- tured at the Homecoming Dance in 1950, has a life of musical ex- perience behind him. At the age of six he gave his first recital, and from that time on he has devoted all his time and effort to music. * * * ACCORDING to publicity chair- man Bob Apple, Thornhill's music is planned to appeal to almost everyone. He plays the latest numbers, as well as the best of the hot and jumping music. In 1951, "Football Fantasy" was chosen as the theme of the annual dance. Three - dimen- sional figures, banners, cutouts and streamers carried out this idea. That year couples danc- ed to the music of Elliott Law- rence. Last year Tommy Dorsey play- ed for "Aumun Nocturne" which was held a week after homecom- ing, in order to secure a name{ band. ,IALLOWEEN and autumn scenes, murals around the walls and a mirrored sphere in the center of the ceiling provided the decorations.- The homecoming dance has been an annual event following the homecoming football game for many years. Aside from the dance itself, this year marks the 54th presentation of Homecoming festivities at the University. * * * THE BIG weekend was first in- augurated in 1897 when alumni came home for a football game with the Varsity. The original of the traditional homecoming displays at Michi- gan is so ancient that no one knows exactly when it was be- gun. There is no evidence of any house decorations back in 1897. Just before the first World War, however, there is a record of a contest for displays which was l t t t 0 imited to just campus fraternities.

Competing with Michigan State College and Albion in a round robin hockey tournament, the Women's Athletic Association' Hockey squad came out on top with 2 wins and 2 ties in its first contest of the season. Approximately at the same time The WAA Tennis Club was op- posing a team of hand-picked players from MSC on the Palmer Field court. * * * IN THE TENNIS matches Judy Strena of State beat Jan Goodman 6-0, 6-1; Helen Whitaken, Michi- gan defeated Elaine Loo 6-3, 7-5; while MSC's doubles team compos- ed of Mary Ellen Weighe and Joyce Broo topped Pat Burkel and Judy Slater. Other Michigan victories were garnered by Lillian Silverberg over Stona Jeffrey and Mary Dumbrique, who defeated Joyce Wilson. The Hockey Club's wins were over Albion, 1-0; and MSC 2-0. The organization, who's manager is Donna Westerlund, also battled the two visiting teams to score- less deadlocks. *. s FOLLOWING the hockey and tennis matches all the participants got together for an informal tea in the lounge of the Women's Athletic Building. Both managers, Miss Wester-- lund, and Joan Hyman of the Tennis Club felt the intercol- legiate matches were highly suc- cessful and expressed a desire to meet the teams once again in the near future. Any coed interested in these sports may still join the WAA or- ganizations and take part in the group's remaining activities. Golf Club The Golf Club will meet at 5 p.m. tomorrow at the WAB. All members are asked to bring a nine-iron and a putter for practice on the green. Ladies HAIR STYLING in Modern Toned Comfort by Edward Flowers at i~ f I . .v6~ 715 N.
