I i Begin Aug. 23 A new Nurses' Aide class will start on Aug. 23 and willcontinue during the last eight weeks of the summer term, it was announced re-. cently by Mrs. Irene B. Johnson, chairman of the Nurses' Aide com- mittee.

Women who are interested may register in the under- graduate office of the League. Coeds taking the course are, asked to give at least 150 hours after com- pleting their 80 hours of basic train- ing in the hospital in which they were trained. Their instruction in the hospital will include 35 hours of theory- and 45 hours of supervised [practice. Lectures and practice sessions will acquaint the students with the duties of the Nurses' Aides which include making beds, preparing patients for meals, assisting with baths and other non-medical work. Women between the ages of 18 and 50. with a high school education are eligible for enrollment. The hours of the class will be announced later. Soph Project Volunteers 596 Hours of Work The members of Sophomore Proj- ect, have contributed more than 5 96 hours to the Hspital Volunteer Ser- vice since the opening of the summer term, Mavis Kennedy, '46, chairman,' announced yesterday. "Many of the coeds will have lig1t- er programs at the end of the sui- mer session," Miss Kennedy said "and we would like all of them to come out." For those interested in working the second eight weeks there will soon be an orientation meeting, the time to be announced later. Five coeds have given over twenty hours of their time to hospital work, Miss Kennedy added. They are Darcy Bagger with 291/4 hours; Nancy Gain- bill with 26 hours; Futh M. Cook who contributed 22% hours; Lois Long with 201/4 hours and Nancy Richter with 20 hours. One of the new projects started this summer was to have the volun- teers work in clinics, and the experi- ment has proved very "successful;"J Miss Kennedy added. The volunteers also aid in medicine, urology, blood bank, hospital aide, occupational therapy, gynecology, M.C.A., Galen Stand and Galen Carts. The appearance of Shep Fields andz his "New Music" rchestra at thet Summer Prom to be held from 8:30t p.m. to midnight Saturday in theE Waterman gym will not be his first1 before a group of servicemen.- Although he's not the one to holdt back anything from the Army, Fields1 felt that the Navy has not been re- ceiving its due from the entertainers.' As a result he has made an effort to1 provide ships' service concerts for the1 crews of naval vessels laying up fort repairs or supplies while on sea-" coast tours. The band has gone aboard battleships, cruisers and into Navy yard recreation halls. Of "Rippling Rhythm" Fame Playing engagements from coast to coast, Fields has become one of the top-ranking stars in the music world His band has been starred in several movie shorts and has been featured on many radio networks. Meredith Blake and Ted Perry on the vocals offer an added attraction. Shep Fields who was famous for his "rippling rhythm," tossed it away at the peak of its popularity to evolve his "new music." Fields' sensational new style bridges the gap between sweet and swing without being a hy- brid. Tickets Now on Sale1 The new combination consists of F{UTZEL Main at Liber NEW FlLI WOOLN'NE nine saxophones and woodwinds with the usual rhythm section, piano, gui- tar, drums, and bass.' The complete elimination of trumpets and trom- bones, regarded by rhany as a daring innovation, has caused the orchestra to be' billed as- "the only band of its kind in the world." Tickets for the dance, which will be informal, are now on sale in the Union, the League, and in State bookstores, Rupert Straub, ticket chairman said. "Anyone who wants to come is invited," Straub added.

Coke. dates are arranged first so that "no one will have to spend an eve- ning with someone he or she does not care for." she added. Miss Hastreiter stated that house- mothers of the women's dormitories and sororities are still reporting that they have many calls from lonesome soldiers and sailors who are anxious to meet some Michigan coeds. "If the men would only sign up at the bu- reau, we could get them lots of dates, because so far the girls have cooper- ated beautifully," she added. The bureau is prepared to meet almost any tastes. The coeds who have registered are . interested in everything from dancing to outdoor sports. They hail from Maine to Cali- fornia and there are blondes, brun- i _.
