Students To Discuss
South African Issues

Group Head

Give

Talk

In the Union of South Africa
two million whites are exploiting
and policing 12 million natives and
Indian immigrants.
The problem has been a signifi-
cant one for the other African
nations who have been concerned
with its solution.. Forceful inter-
vention has often been suggested
to bring about justice.
Graduate students from the
United States, Africa and India
will weigh the desirabilities of
armed intervention in the South
African situation in a round-table
discussion at 8 p.m. today in the
International Center.
David Neal of Liberia, who will
participate in the discussion, re-
marked that the "use of force
would be premature; the situation
will rectify itself."
Resentment Rising
"Pressure is rising," the African
continued, "and increasing resent-
ment on the part of the younger
generation wfll bring an explosion
at some future date."
Neal added that the nations of
Africa haven't enough strength,
economically or politically, to enter
into a war. Armed intervention
would require aid from other coun-
tries, probably causing a split of
opinions in the West.
"If the aid," Neal concluded,
"would not come from the Western
powers the African nations would
be forced to appeal to the Com-
munist countries."
To Carry on Discussion
Other participants in the Inter-
national Students Association
sponsored discussion Are Solomon
Quaynor and Charles Lemeh of the
Gold Coast, Buddha Govindaraj
from India and Theodore Schwartz
and Murray Melvin of the United
States.
This discussion is sixth of a
series between American students
and students from other national
groups and is designed to clarify
misconceptions about the political
and cultural patterns of those na-
tional groups.
Most of the topics selected will

be of a controversial political na-
ture.
Acting as moderator, Alice Spuel-I
her of Switzerland, chairman of
the entire discussion series, will
pose questions for the other par-
ticipants to answer. Audience par-
ticipation will be invited.
Throughout the year other dis-
cussions of a similar nature will
be scheduled.
Continuing until the end of the
spring semester, they will deal
consecutively with Pakistan and
Korea.

National Co-Chairman'
Will Attend Reception
Mrs. Edison Dick, naitonal co-
chairman of the Stevenson for
President organization will be hon-
ored with a reception at 7:30 p.m.
Monday, in the Hussey Rm. of the
League.
Sponsored by the University's
newly-formed Students for Stev-
enson group, the reception is open
to the public.
Mrs. Dick will deliver an infor-
mal talk on the progress Adlai
Stevenson is making with his cam-
paign efforts. A discussion period
will follow.
"We hope as many students and
Ann Arbor residents as possible
will be able to meet Mrs. Dick
and participate in the discussion,"
David Marlin, president of Stu-
dents for Stevenson remarked.
The guest speaker is a graduate
of the University of Chicago where
she concentrated in political sci-
ence and history.
Serving as co-chairman of the
women's division of Stevenson for

Maitby To
By SUE RAUNHEIM
Saturday, May 14, Richard Malt-
by and his Orchestra will be on
hand to provide dance music for
the Inter-Fraternity Council Ball.
The conductor-arranger was
born on June 26, 1914 in Chicago,
Ill., the youngest of five sons.
During his early grade school days,
he began his association with
music when he played cornet in
the school orchestra.
Upon completion of high school,
Maltby entered Northwestern Uni-
versity where he took liberal art
courses. He did not plan to enter
the music profession until he met
Virginia Hosegood, who later be-
came his wife, and insisted that he
dedicate his talent to music.
Combined Studies, Tours
He left Northwestern after one
year to work with local dance
bands while he continued his study
of advanced harmony and orches-
tration under Leo Sowerby. On
completion of his courses, he tour-
ed with several dance bands in-
cluding Little Jack Little, Roger
Pryor and Bob Strong.
Maltby joined WBBM in Chi-
cago as staff arranger in 1940.
He gained valuable experience
there by writing for diversified
groups.
Besides his work at WBBM,
Maltby found time to continue ar-
ranging in the dance band medium
for bands in the Chicago area. One
of his compositions, "Six Flats
Unfurnished," was recorded by
Benny Goodman and proved to be
one of Goodman's biggest selling
records.
Acted As Conductor-Arranger
Paul Whiteman placed Maltby
with a broadcasting company in
Chicago as a conductor-arranger.
After moving to New York City,
Maltby was in great demand as an
arranger on many television and
radio shows as well as backing
singers on recordings.
In 1951, Maltby was asked to do
a series of recordings called "Jazz
Classics." He was allowed to ex-
periment with all combinations
and he used his imagination to
write original compositions. He
has recorded over 250 sides, and
many of these numbers are used
in his dance library today.
One of his first recordings, "St.
Louis Blues Mambo," established
him commercially as an artist of
great stature. In June of 1955,
Maltby organized his traveling
band and hit the road.
Records for Several Companies
Now establsihed as one of the big
bands in the country, he continued
to record for several national re-
cord companies, turning out tunes
that are good listennig, danceable
and always in good taste. His re-
cord, "Man With the Golden Arm,"
is number nine on hit lists across
the country this week.
Maltby has played the "one-

Entertain at IFC Ball

nighter" circuit at many of the
majo rcollege dances. He has also
played at the Statler Hotel for a
long period of time.
In 1955 Maltby wrote the music
for, and conducted, the Vaughn
Monroe Color TV Show and also
appeared with his band.
Guest Conductor
He has been guest conductor on
the National Radio Fan Club sev-

30, 1935 in St. Petersburg, Fla.
She started singing at the age of
15 with her father's orchestra at
the Coloseum in St. Petersburg,
and fro mthere went on to solo
spots in local clubs.
Vocalist Wins Concert
In May, 1955, a national maga-
zine conducted a search for a
vocalist for Maltby's Orchestra.
Franky was chosen out of hun-
dreds of applicants and made her
debut with the band at the Cafe
Rouge of the Statler Hotel in New
York City.
Since then, she has been touring
with Richard Maltby. Her first
commercial recording was Heart
of Paris.
Miss Crockett has created sensa-
tions wherever she travels because
of her charm, poise and beauty.
Her excellent singing voice has
added greatly to the prestige of
the band and it is with great pleas-
ure that the IFC Ball committee
awaits her.

also active on the political scene
as co-chairman of the National
Volunteers for Stevenson in 1952.
Her appearance in Ann Arbor
marks the beginning of a series of
activities the University Students
for Stevenson are planning. They
hope to bring a nationally known
speaker later in the semester.
Since the group's birth in March
of this year, when a handful of
students interested in furthering
Stevenson's campaigning banded
together, it has grown to approxi-
mately 75 members. .
"Anyone who is interested in
becoming a member may sign up
at the reception, Monday," Mar-
lin said. He added that interest
is the only criterion prospective
members must possess.

In celebration of a spring that
was long in arriving, East Quad-
rangle and Taylor House of South
Quadrangle are planning spring
formals for tomorrow evening.
East Quad . .
"Blue Lagoon," East Quad's all
campus semi-formal dance will be
held from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m.
For couples who enjoy dancing
outdoors, a portable dance floor
has been secured. Hal Singer and
his band plus a huge fountain con-
taining South Sea Island flamingos
will help create the atmosphere
for these couples.
For those who prefer the indoor
life, Carol Kenny and her combo
will be entertaining in one of the
dining rooms. Hanging Spanish
moss, exotic birds, -and palm trees
will also add to the tropical scene.
One dining room will be trans-
formed into a club where refresh-
ments will be served.
Tickets for the dance can be
obtained from social chairman of
East Quad houses and at the door.
Marilyn Whitman and Drake
Duane are serving as general
chairmen.
Taylor House ...
Taylor house will start their
big weekend with a Cruise Picnic
and Supper at Island Park to-'
night. Tomorrow evening couples
will board the SS United States
for a "Moonlight Cruise."
The ship will sail at 9 p.m., dock-
ing again at 1 a.m. Red Johnson

and his band will be on hand to
provide the entertainment.
From the moment they board
the gang plank couples will find
themselves in a sea-going atmos-
phere. Posters will decorate all
walls. Menu covers, along with
other favors supplied by several
steamship liens, will adorn the
dining room.
The dance floor will have a low-
ered ceiling composed of angel
hair to achieve a cloud like effect.
Gardens, pools, and a fountain
complete with its own goldfish will
be seen from the dance floor.
A 15 foot smokestack with pen-
nants flying will be placed out-
side the quad on the dining room
roof to add the final touch to the
decorations.
