Glee Clubs.. ..
The combined concert featuring
the University and Ohio State Uni-
versity Men's Glee Clubs to be
held at 8:30 p.m. Saturday at Hill
Auditorium, will be the third such
concert that the Men's Glee Club
has presened.
Part of the effort of the Uni-
versity club to achieve more co-
operation between college glee
clubs, the group also hopes to
bring more college choral music to
the public.
STARTED IN the fail of 1951,
the club accompanied the football
team to Cornell University and
presented a combined concert
there.
That concert proved so suc-
cessful that the Cornell club was
invited to Ann Arbor last fall
to sing a joint concert on the
evening of the gridiron clash.
Members of the Glee Club feel
that the spirit that runs high on
football Saturdays carries over to
the concerts and to the audiences.1
Recognition of college glee
clubs throughout the country
has increased during the pastf
several years.
College songs have been popu-
larized, with the Yale "Wiffen-
poof Song" a notable example. Be-x
cause of heightened public sup-1
port, clubs have been able to make1
extensive tours in this countryk
and abroad.

ED SULLIVAN, television star,
recognizing this interest, has in-
vited many glee clubs to appear
on his show.
Tickets for the concert, priced
at 90 cents, $1.50 and $2.20, can
be purchased . from 10 a.m. to 5
p.m. this week at the box office
in Hill Auditorium.

For Your Car ... MICHIGAN NAME PLATE

"Painters and Paintings," the
theme of this year's Fortnite, to
be held Nov. 23, will add another
chapter to the background of the
Annual Assembly production.
Begun many years ago as an As-
sembly banquet, it was primarily a
scholarship night when dormi-
tories with the highest averages
and outstanding women scholas-
tically were recognized. It was a
rather solemn affair with little of
the humor of its present day off-
spring.
DURING World War II all ban-
quets stopped, and Assembly offi-
cials felt that something was need-
ed to honor outstanding women
and dormitories, something that
was more for the students to have
fun with.
Assembly officers felt that
there should be some way for
coeds to show their ingenuity as
well as their scholastic achieve-
ments. As a result, the skits be-
came an important part of Fort-
nite.
H il lel Assembly
Slated for Sunday
Hillel Foundation will present a
Kenes, which is the Hebrew word

a.m. to 4 p.m. Sunday at the Fresh

have an opportunity to learn more
about problems of the Jewish Stu-
dent and its relation to the Hillel
Foundation.
Any student interested in at-
tending the event is asked to
call the Hillel Building, phone
NOrmandy 3-4129, between 3 and
6 p.m., today, tomorrow or Thurs-
day.
Food and transportation at the
assembly, which will feature talks
by Hillel President, Dan Fogel,
Hillel Director, Dr. H. Jacobs, Eve
Kadden and Arvine Kimmel, will
be furnished by the Hillel Foun-
dation.

With hundreds of little details
to check before a parade can
become a success, students on
the parade committee will work
under various subchairmen.
Men or women may fill the posi-
tions of floats chairman, the per-
son who receives petitions from1
house groups on campus and gets
the material for the floats; judges

MICHIGRAS KICKOFF:

I

Committee Slates Mass Meeting

Newest addition to the Fortnite
scene was the idea of a central
theme. Because of the football
season, many of the skits last year
centered around a football theme.
However, the central theme this
year will promote a variety of
ideas.
Beside being an annual skit-
fest, Fortnite carries out the
idea of the Assembly banquet by
rewarding women with high
scholastic averages.
Included in the programs is the
installation of house presidents.
These officers are introduced to
the audience and given their offic-
ial house president's pin.
