SUNDAY, OCTOBER 25, 1953 THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE FIE Black Cat Will Reign At Homecoming Dance In order to find a name for the Black Cat, the committee in charge of Black Cat Ball, this year's homecoming dance to be held from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m. Satur- day in the Intramural Building is sponsoring a contest to select just the right title. Each student purchasing a tick- et for the dance will be given an opportunity to make a suggestion. The committee will select the win- ning name and then will award a prize to its contributor during the homecoming dance. The na- ture of the prize is to be a secret until then. Black Cat Ball was chosen as the title for this year's home- coming dance last week during a meeting of the Student Legis- lature appointed Homecoming Committee. Selected in order to give the3 dance a flavor of Halloween since it falls on the day when spooks: and jack-o'lanterns reign, the committee also felt that the sound of the name puts the annual dance; on a more informal level.; In evidence on all publicity, the9 Black Cat himiself is the official symbol of the dance. He is pictured wearing a "Michigan" helmet and carrying a football. Thus the Halloween theme is tied in with the football spirit, which also prevails at this time of year. Done as a print-making class project, the posters were drawn by Bill Whittingham, '54A&D, and lettered by Ken Rice, '54 A&D. With decorations and programs following the Halloween theme, the dance will feature the music of Claude Thornhill and his or- chestra. Awarding of trophies for homecoming displays will high- light intermission. According to the committee, "top-flight" en- tertainment has also been plan- ned. As in previous years, a photog- rapher will be on hand to take pictures of couples attending the annual dance. Tickets for Black Cat Ball, pric- ed at $3.60 per couple, will be available all this week from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. at the Admin- istration Building and on the Diag- onal. -Daily-Dick Gaskiil NAME THAT CAT-Pictured putting final touches on the Black Cat, symbol of Black Cat Ball, to be held from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m. Saturday in the Intramural Building, is its designer Bill Whit- tingham. All persons buying a ticket for the dance will have an opportunity to suggest a name for the cat. 'MILADY LOVES TO DANCE': Panhellenic As!

IN THE YEARS before and in- cluding 1945, Panhel Ball was sponsored jointly by both Pan- hellenic and Assembly. Held in the spring in the Intra-mural Build- ing, the dance was usually so crowded that the Central Commit-"- tee made plans to have an "Over- flow" dance in the League.' Dance theme in 1945 was "Heavenly Daze" with Raymond Scott playing at the IM build- ing and Billy Munday supply- ing the music for couples at the "Overflow" dance. Because of the increased enroll- ment and the difficulty in holding ° this overflow dance, the following . year Panhellenic and Assembly de- cided to separate their dances.: "OPEN SESAME," the 1946 Pan- hel Ball, was held in the fall. The site of the dance was still the IM Building and Sonny Dunham and1 his orchestra were featured. Inde- pendents were invited to the dance although it was held primarily for affiliates.' Stan Kenton supplied the music for "Elysian Eve" in 1947 and the theme was Greek, com- plete with pillars and the Par- thenon. Blue and silver sophisti- cation was the motif for "Mood Indigo" in 1948 and Will Os- borne's orchestra was featured.} 1949 saw Ray Mc- is orchestra play for c," which was cen- a circus theme. That the last time that as held in the IM * * OF the cost of the 50 the Panhellenic d to hold the dance ue. The theme was Manhattan" com- rew York skyline, the seshoe and Gay Cla- ridge's orchestra. Because of lim- ited space, the dance was open only to affiliated women and men. In 1951, Panhel Ball was again opened to "Independents,' although "Musical Moods" was held in the League. Decorations carried out the theme by hav- ing one room decorated in jazz style another in a semi-classi- cal tone, and the third "blues" mood. "Wonderland"in 1951 was high- lighted by Alice's escapades with the pink-eyed White Rabbit. Tra- ditionally each sorority has a spe- cific room in which to gather and chat informally. These were each demorated by a playing card from the Queen's Court. Two rooms in the League were open for dancing Red Harper and his orchestra were featured in the ballroom and Paul McDonough's combo fulfilled requests in one of the second floor rooms. This year Panhel Ball is open to all affiliated men and women. Tickets will be sold by one mem- ber of each sorority at $3 a couple. sociation To Give Annual Ball I ... . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .. <' , , fi.,a " 14.,. 71s Hillel To Hold Supper Club, Chorus, Discussion Group U p for the smart bare-shoulder fashion... strapless , .
