    Frosh to Secure
Northwest Band
'Big Name' Outfit
Out, Freshman
Committee Says
Frosh Glee committeemen will
not attempt to bring a “big
name” band to Oregon May 24
for the annual frosh dance, Ted
Hallock, Glee orchestra chair
man, announced yesterday.
Decision to secure a northwest
band came after a meeting of
Freshman Class President Jim
Burness, Glee Chairman Oglesby
Young, and Hallock.
Hallock explained the commit
tee's decision by pointing out that
there is a shortage of “big name”
bands in the Northwest this
spring.
He also observed that there
have already beep two “big
name” bands at Oregon this year
—Bob Crosby for the senior ball
in January, and Kay Kyser for
the Sigma Delta Chi dance late in
March.
“Time is short,” he declared,
“and we can’t afford to monkey
around. If we are to have a good
band, we have to get it quick.”
At present, committeemen are
considering four northwest bands,
all of which Hallock termed
“good.”
Possibilities of a "theme dance”
are being investigated by the
committeemen, with an eye to
building a dance around a theme,
rather than featuring a promi
nent orchestra.

• This boy, William Coulter of New Wilmington, Pennsylvania, likes a warm bed, especially when it
rains. So, straining his mentality, he uses an electric motor, pin, piece of string, two old springs,
wire, and paper. The rain breaks the paper, held tight by springs. Contact starts motor, motor pulls
pins, Bill sleeps on.
