CLEARING
HOUSE
By

the editor

Engineer's dance committee were
finally brought to a successful conclusion last night when Chairman
Bob Strohm announced that "The
Band of a Thousand Melodies" had
been secured for Saturday night.
Bob was looking pretty tuckered
but pleased when he made the third
(and final, he assures us) announcement. Back of this last announcement lies a doleful tale of wrecked
hopes, blasted
composure,
and
Jangled nerves. The story began
about three or four weeks ago when
a list of some ten or fifteen orchestras were submitted to the engineers for consideration.
All except about 2 of these bands had set
April 22 as the date on which they
might be had.

Then began the series of
grams, telephone calls and letters
first to Dick Stabile who wired back
that he had Just been signed, then
to Red Nichols who had another
excuse, and Larry Clinton, Maurice
Epitalney. and finally Tommy Tucker. Nearly certain of getting Tucker, the committee had placards and
tickets printed and distributed when
"tele-

lo, comes a telegram saying Tucker
is "engaged."
Cards and tickets
were marked over and Al Donahoe
contacted. Just been signed. Then
a try at Bob Hutscll who seemed
accessible and another flood of posters and tickets only to be destroyed
night before last by a telegram
saying he couldn't be released from

a present contract.

Happy Ending
Then "out of the blue" comes the
offer from another agency, that of
Larry Funke and his "Band of A
Thousand Melodies." A telegram
from here asking if it is really true.
aiKi a telegram back saying he will
be here Saturday night followed.
The band recently played at a
couple of dances for the University
of Michigan where he went over
big. and has a record of appearances at the Rainbow Room, New
York, and numerous spots throughout the East and over the air. Best
luck to the engineers. They deserve
it because they really worked hard
to get a good band.

KnaMiing of Teeth
Asking for opinion on matters
which are not immediately pressing
is like dreaming of an "A": you
don't get anywhere. But we'd be
willing to bet that next year when
spring vacation rolls around, there's
going to be a mighty wailing and
knashing of teeth because the vacation is scheduled for KEA-tim- e
and then it will be too late to do
anything about it. If anything can
done now and
be done, it must-bonly after a representative number
of students show that they w ish it.

Dance Will Be Held In

Annual Banquet

Saturday

By BEN WILLIAMS

After three hectic weeks spent in
search of a band which would stay
booked, the committee in charge of
the annual Engineers' Ball believes
that it has found an orchestra
which will put in an appearance at
the Union ballroom Saturday night
Larry Funke, who leads the "Band
with a Thousand Melodies' said
that he would cancel a previous engagement in Detroit to come here
Saturday night. Although this is
the first trip to the Bluegrass for
the orchestra, it is well liked in the
East, having played an engagement
in the highest dining room in the
world, the Rainbow Room of Rockefeller center.
So far this year Larry and his
boys hare seen service at several
University of Michigan dances and
are credited with being one of the
most popular bands in Detroit. He
has also been heard over Eastern
airwaves for four or five years.
According to reports the title
"Band With a Thousand Melodies"
is well deserved as the band has yet
to meet with a request it cannot
fill. '
It will be remembered that last
year in
with ODK, the
Engineers' Ball marked the formal
opening of the Student Union building, so that this occasion can well
be termed a birthday party for the
Union as well as the first Spring
formal.
With the exception of Larry
Funke being substituted for Tommy
Tucker the dance will take place as
previously planned, from 8:30 until
midnight with the subscription being $1.50 advance and $2.00 at the
door. Tickets may be purchased at
the information desk in the Union
building.
Bob Strohm, chairman of the
dance committee, said the booking
difficulties started three weeks ago.

In Berlin yesterday Adolf Hitler,
he of the moustache, had a birthday party. Besides enjoying his
thousands of tin soldiers and toy
guns, little Adolf cast envying glances at a lucious Danzig pie which
he had hoped to grab as a gift to
himself. But several of Adolf's enemies from across the railroad tracks
were peeping and poor Adolf didn't
know what to do; finally, he had to
forestall his plan. And on top of
that he didn't even get a congratulatory message from President
Roosevelt who refused to have anything to do with the party because
Adolf had been bad and, anyway,
didn't belong to the same club.

It's Now Up
To You, Greeks
I he
loudest dream ol Rfiiiiickv fiatcrniiv

According!, rumors are' often heard circulating to the effect lhat the University is contemplating the purchase of a tract on Euclid, and
the construction of a row of houses to be paid
basis. Thus far these rumors
for on a long-terhave turned out to be only results of wishful

thinking.
Now. however, a ray of hope has crept into
ihe piiituc. A prominent University official re- t ut K s.iid it is highly probable thai the long
awaiied piojeti will Ik undertaken within the
next few years.
'fliis statement, he added, is made on the
condition that the fraternities prove in the
meantime lhat they are financially able to support such a project. For this reason, among
others, was established the new system of auditing fiaternitv hooks for I'niversitv inspection.
I lent e, with suth a goal in sight, fraternity
memlK-rwould do well lo cease all grumblings
against ihe auditing system, and concentrate on
proving their respective organizations financially
worth of hcneliiing from the proposed project.
