Year's First Midweek Planned; Navy V-12 Band to Supply Music
Plans for the first midweek of the year, next Wednesday, Sept. 27, are underway, Eugenia Hepworth, president of the Student Union Activities Board, announced last night. Music for the event will be furnished by the KU Navy V-12_band, under the direction of Don Cousins, junior in engineering. This will be the first dance appearance this year for the Navy band, Miss Hepworth said.
The dance, which will be from 7 to 8 p.m., regular midweek hours, in the lounge of the Memorial Union building, will be a Scotch varsity. Plans for regular midweek dances are being considered, Miss Hepworth said, but will depend upon success of this first dance. Midweeks were discontinued last winter.
Admission to the dance will be free, Miss Hepworth announced, upon presentation of student Union activity tickets. These tickets are included in the regular student activity book for civilian students. Service men may secure Daily Kansan and Union activity tickets from the business office of the Daily Kansan or from the desk in the lounge of the Union building.
Miss Hepworth stressed that a careful ticket check will be made this year of all persons taken advantage of Union facilities. "We are sure all servicemen will co-operate with us." Miss Hepworth said, "by purchasing their tickets immediately. It is through use of this fund that Union activities are financed."
