Women's News Dorsey 0 Orchestra Coming The Medford Armory has been filled with the sounds of hammers and saws in recent days as a bandstand has been built to specifications for the appearance of the Tommy Dorsey orchestra on Friday, May 18. The famous dance band is under the direction of Sam Donahue, who is the leader and saxophone soloist. Two vocalists accompany the band, and are also featured during the evening of dancing. According to Director Dona hue, varied types of music are played, but many of the songs and arrangements are those that Tommy Dorsey made fa mous. Dorsey "cut" many records that are still popular, and he is credited with giving the record industry the boost that made it the "big-time" business it is today. More than 300 recordings with total sales exceeding 70 million gave Dorsey a record un equalled in show business history. The Tommy Dorsey orchestra, under Sam Dona hue's direction, still uses his library of familiar arrange ments, and recreates the era of the great dance bands. Hours of the dance are 9 p.m. to 1 a.m., and refresh ments will be available at the Armory. Members of the Providence guild, which is sponsoring the dance, stress that election returns will be seen and heard on television during the evening.
