reaching the final stages.
Hoping to make this year's fes-

holding reservation cards who
have not purchased their tickets.

ticket will receive ar envelope
containing a formal invitation to
be sent to his date. He will also
fill out a card with information
which will be forwarded, along
with a description of the dance,
to the hometown newspaper.
Weekend activities for J-Hop
ticket holders will begin with the
traditional dance, featuring the
music of Jimmy Dorsey and his
orchestra from 9 p.m. to 2:30 a.m.
Friday in the Intramural Building.
Hawaiian girls in grass skirts
and leis will pin a baby orchid on
each coed as she enters the lobby.
A special J-Hop favor will also be
presented, the identity of which
will not be revealed until that
night.
Tropical Scenes
Inside the ballroom, murals de-
picting the beauties of sand, turf,
palm trees and thatched huts will
cover the walls. Tropical foun-
tains with live goldfish and run-
ning water will grace the corners,
with potted plants and palms fill-
ing in around the room.
A deep blue false ceiling, repre-
senting a star-filled sky, will add
to the tropical atmosphere of the
dance. In addition, a revolving
crystal ball will throw bits of
colored light around the room.
South Pacific decorations on the
bandstands, placed at each end of
the room, and Hawaiian leis on
the band members will complete
the Bali Hai setting.
Honoraries to Help
In the lobby, a thatched hut
will be set up from which mem-
bers of Sphinx honorary will serve
refreshments to J-Hop couples.
The coat check service will be
operated by Alpha Phi Omega ser-
vice fraternity.
A tropical backdrop will be set
up against which photographers
will take pictures of couples at-
tending the dance. Leis will be
furnished for the pictures.
Patrons invited to the formal
dance include Gov. and Mrs. G.
Mennen Williams, Pres. and Mrs.
Harlan H. Hatcher, members of

couples will sign, adding their
names to those of students attend-
ing previous Bluebook Balls.

books prepared by Steve Shlanta,

tees.

plied by Red Johnson and his
orchestra. Johnson is well known
on campus for his, playing at re-
gular Union membership dances
and his work with Union Opera

"The last dance of the semester,
Bluebook Ball is designed to pro-
vide an opportunity for students to
relax before settling down to the
tensions of studying for final ex-
aminations," Harvey Rutstein, the
dance chairman, points out.
Assisting Rutstein with plans for
the evening are Fred Zechman and
Al Drebin, decorations, and Don
Seltz and Ron Ritzler, intermis-
sion entertainment.

Exhibit To Display
American Music
Examples of the first-published
early American music, including
the song that later became the
popular "America," highlight the
current exhibit at the University's
Clements Library of Americana.
Selected from the library's per-
manent collection and described
by associate professor Allen P.
Britton of the University School
of Music, the exhibit includes es-
says and sermons on the topic of
church-singing by memory or by
book-a cause of violent contro-
versy in 1720.
John Cotton and Cotton Mather
were two of the well-known figures
of the time favoring the use of
"tune-books"and the teaching
of singing. Samples of their writ-
ing on the subject are on exhibi-
tion.
Also on display are examples of
the original "tune-books," a rarity
since most of them have been
worn out with use over the years.
One of the books carries the mark
of engraver Paul Revere, and ano-
ther includes the tune, "Chester,"
that became the basic of the fav-
orite marching song of Revolution-
ary War soldiers.
Tune-stealing is evidently not
a new practice, since one of the
books shows the simple melody
that was made from a theme ex-
cerpted from Handel's "Messiah."
The exhibit will be on display
through January from 9 a.m. to
noon and from 1 to 5 p.m. Mon-
day through Friday.
