His Chances Are Gone But B.a",d Plays On-... IDl1t BarsH!} N tUtS

UNIVERSITY OF DETROIT STUDENT NEWSPAPER Although he wasn't able to

"stop The Music," Engineering freshman Arthur F. Krol will go a long way towards stopping any coughs or colds he might run into within the coming year.

somebody's idea of a joke was pretty good and kidded with the operator just long- enough to miss the tune that, could he have identified it, would have won him a beautiful set of luggage.

31st Year Detroit, Michigan, Friday, January 7, 1949 No. 27

The nationally famous program is offering him a Longine wrist watch and a year's supply of Smith Brothers Cough Drops, (as consolation prizes). .. . ..

OUT OF the millions of possibilities available, the program picked Krol as one of the potential $30,00()' (in prizes) winners Sunday night.

To be able to try his luck at the "mystery tune" Art would have to identify the first melody. Insofar as he missed his ante he 'didn't even get a crack at the mystery tune which might have netted him, among other things, a lady's fur coat (very good for engineers), a Kaiser automobile, a diamond ring, a trip to Paris, and to top it all, a baby sitter two nights a week for a full year.

Two hundred fifty students and faculty members of the UniveJ;sity gained an insight into the profits of management Wednesday night when. John S. Coleman, president of Burroughs Adding Machine Company, visited the campus.

Coleman explained that in the past, business failed to take its employees and the public into its confidence, thereby bringing about many evil effects. These are today being steadily eliminated, he said.

BreaI{fast at Latin Quarter . The sophistocated Latin Quarter will again be the scene of the annual J -Prom breakfast, sponsored by Delta Sigma Pi, Commerce profeSSional fraternity.

Details regarding the menu and entertainment have not been disclosed as yet_

Various sessions of the Allied Historical Association were attended by six members of the history department of the University. Those attending were Rev. Charles O. Schrader, S. J ., director of the Department of History and director of the Graduate Division; Dr. Arlinghaus, president for 1948 of the American Catholic Historical Association; Rev. Alphonse F. Kuhn, S. J., assistant professor of History; George J. Fleming, instructor in History; Frederick H. ~Hayes, instructor in History; Frederick F. Thompson, instructor in History.

THE INDUSTRIALIST told of the difficulties the company met while trying to enlarge its plant in Nottingham, England. The only result of this attempt was that a new factory appeared in Scotland, where the British government decided it would' be better located.

The program, sponsored by the Business Club, concluded with an excellent film produced by the Burroughs company dramatizing the dangerous effects of unwisely distributing profits.

Tickets for the affair will go on sale Monday and will be

, $5_50 a couple.

At the annual business meeting of the Association the new president of the ~sociation, Pr~fessor Henry S. Lucas, ot the Umversity of Washington 'was inducted into office. '

Tho~e attending the lecture were each presented with the Burroughs booklet "In Balance."

The seating capacity of the Latin Quarter is limited in accordance with city fire restrictions. Students and friends are therefore urged by the frater':: nity to purchase their tickets soon, before the supply is depleted. They may be obtained from any member of Delta Sigma. Pi.

Band Sweet

Stresses Music

By PAT HELFERTY SOCIETY EDITOR

Signing of Gene Krupa and his 17 piece orchestra for the 35th annual Junior Promenade climaxed two m 0 nth s of detailed planning yesterday.

Breaking tradition, the class of 1950 selected one of the nation's top ranking bands to play for the University's top social event.

Krupa, ace drummer, has completely reorganized his band and now plays, contrary to public opinion., almost all sweet music.

* .. .. PROOF OF this is afforded by

his recent visit to Detroit on New Year's Eve and by the opinion expressed to THE VARSITY NEWS by Jack the Bell Boy, popular W JBK disc jockey.

"The Krupa Kid has one of the most versatile bands on the road today," he stated. "People think he's all jive and jump and he isn't. He's not out to fracture the cats anymore, but to please the cash customers." The Bell Boy also added that

"he even goes in for classics now. Last month in Toronto he played the Firebird Suite, as it was written."

All students are eligible to attend the dance, which will be forma), as usual, with corsages banned.

.. * .. A DEVIATION from precedent

this year will be the discontinuation of the Grand March. The difficulties of planning and car .. Tying out the mareh, plus student comment, caused the committee to drop the ideq. "After

New Lounge At Dowling Opens Soon

Progress mad e by the Freshman Committee over the holidays insures the opening of the Dowling Men's Lounge by the second semester, according to a committee spokesman. Redecoration of the lounge has been completed and recreation facilities are now being obtained.

.. .. * SUCCESS of the Santa Swing,

held in the Dowling gymnasium December 19, was a major factor in the lounge's development, reported". Frank Harris, dance chairman.

The committee announced that a pool table, ping pong table, piano, and furniture have been procured but that the lounge will not be ready before the Retreats. Arrange ments have been made for ins tall a t ion of concession machines. The original plan of maintain

BY MARY JANE AND PAULINE

The third day of the New Year brought back many a sad eyed student and drooping co- ed after such an eventful Christmas vacation. However, amid all the yawns and groans, stories of the gay parties an.d dances are still b~ing reminisced by the majority of the populatIon around these parts. So wi,th many a fond memory we buckle down to a final three weeks of the semester.

Christmas night was the time and a home on Oak Drive was the place for a gay and spirited party. Bob Gargaro and Margaret Baker (a Marymont student home for the holidays) Jerry Mutual and Martha Howe, John Hartigan and Ruth Gaertner, Bud Burton and fiance, Ann Gaertner and Jack Ryan and Mary Lou Cullen were some of the many who consumed the turkey, ham and all the trimmings. Mary Jo Thebo, a '47 Dowling Hall student who recently returned from Spokane, Washington, sawall her old :friends and was welcomed back with a joyous Christmas greeting.

• • • THE FIVE lovely red-heads around Ed Moore's house created

quite a sensat.ion at the cocktail party he hosted the Sunday afternoon of ;;he 26th. Ed's mother, sister, two aunts and his grandmot her are the possessors of the most beautiful titian-t ressed curly hair we've ever seen. To top ev.erything off, Mr. and Mrs. Bill Hennessy brought their litt le son, Bill, Jr. , rulong and he immediately took his place among the dominating throng of auburn locks.

Larry Moore and Ann Rady took turns bouncing the baby on their knees while Earl Cahill and Charlene Ward, Dorothy and Jerry Grobbel, Bill O'Donnell and Joyce Smith conversed with other such illustrious guests as Jack Tirnes, Al Cavanaugh, Pepper Percha, Red Roach, Jack Winterhaulter and Hugh Jones . and Carolyn Wells.

The potential lawyers of Delta Theta Phi gave a lavish cocktail party at the home of Dick Tarnas for their new pledges. The delicious punch was the product of Andy Valenti's endeavor. Confidentially, ~y isn't the connoisseur he'd like to have everyone think he is-he got the recipe from his father.

• • • THE UNIV1~RSITY of Detroit-Mississippi Col>Iege basketball

game brought forth the familiar face of Barbara Kreutz visiting the home front from stevens College. Pat Costello helped her wish the holiday greeting to all her old pals at the game, and besides that, it was a victorious evening.

Under the mystifying lights of the Penobscot Club's Champagne room, Phi Gamma Nu sorority held their annual Christmas diuner dance. It was the first social outing for Mary Diehl and her fianCe Bob Loepp who spent the most part of the holidays in the hospital. Mary McGrath and her fiance Lee Garrett, Pat Cottrell and Terry Brennan, Toni LeBy and Paul Tyan, Marilynn Burr and Jim Vernier, Evelyn Carnaghe and Mike Rintz, Phrasia Hagermoser and Kevin Murphy and Audrey Stocker and Bob Rajalla all turned out in their formals and tuxes to the delight of Barbara Kading and Aline Smolinski, the Chairmen of the affair.

Then there was New Year 's Eve ! Upsilon Delta Sigma Fraternity held a party lilt the Legion

Hall whe re Mr. z.nd Mrs. Sidney With row. J ack Betts and fia nce, Marilyn Bulloch, Ken Turner and Betty Siers, Al Mixer and Agnes Nolan, Jerry McNamee and Sheila McDonnell and Jack Betts and fiance, Arlene Gunlock and many others welcomed the new year in the accustomed fashion.

Delta Sigma Pi and Alpha Kappa Psi started the new year off with a bang with one of the most vivacious parties of several seasons. The committee was real,ly on its toes and the decorations and refreshments were met wi th extreme approval by Don Kearney and Helen Greene Paul Hussey and his fiance Betty Lunny, Bob Jared and Fran Percha, Ed Philbin and Lois Sylvester, Jack Rourke and Shirley Schmidt, Jack R~ed and Marge Higbee and Ken and Bet ty Robinson. Shaking the confetti out of their hair were J. P. O'Reilly and Lee Dougher, Bob and Lil Trigolle, Frank Rourke and <lTito" O'Conner and Sue Keifer and Bob Heym.

• • • AMONG THE A. K. Psi crowd t he ones that were making the

loudest noise included, Marvin Saur and Irene Gost ek, Ernie Onisko and Nancy AIfonsi, Bob Kraemer and Rose Katarincic, Jack Boyle and Eleanor Irvine, Dick McDonaJd and Mary Gunion and Bill Agar and Marjorie Wheeler.

New Year's Eve was the first cost ume party held by Tuyere since before the war. The party was held in Redford Hall and was open to members, alumni and guests. Some of the costumes included gypsies, an angel and devil, old fashion bathing suits and even a University of Detroit Freshman together with many others. However, the first prize was won by Stewart Millar and Bea Roy. Stew was graduated from the University in 1948 as a Chemicall Engineer. He appeared as a mountaineer complete with long rifle, jug and a bullet hole in his hat. His date was a Chinese girl in character with flowers and trimmings. They

The University of Detroit tankers will open the 1949 swimming season Saturda.y at; 4 p. m. against the Toronto YMCA in the Boys Club pool.

Coach Wally Laury, beginning' his third season as swimming mentor, views the coming season rather optimistically because of six returning lettermen and t wo promisinl~ newcomers .

Ward's Play Factor In l-eam's Success

Members of the University of Detroit basketball team chose wisely at last year's banquet when they picked Bill Ward to co-captain this year's team, along with Warren Hintz.

Big Bill. a 6'1" forward, has seven years experience on the hard court behind him. He earned four letters at Visitation High. a freshman letter at Detroit in the 1942-43 season, and

. has been a varsity regular since his return fpom the Army in 1946.

Ward kllows the gaIl\e. Younger men on the squad find in him a steady leader, and they re,specL him for his ability and ex·perience.

• Never a high scorer, Ward's specialties are defensiVe work and setting up plays. He knoV1S what ·to do with the ball and has the knack of keeping cool under pressure.

In the Assumption game earlier this season, Bill gave an exhibition of heavy playing under fire . With the score tied in overtime, he scored one basket and sel up another with a neat pass to Hintz. The Titans won 63-58.

When the season ends, Ward will proably join the Visitation C.Y.O. team which he helped win the Detroit Championsh:lp at the close of last year's campaign.

Professor Paul Harbrecht, director of the Student Council Bureau at the University, probably sympthizes with Bob Calihan when things are going against his team. In 1922-23 and again in 1928- 29 Harbrecht coached the Titan cagers.

Like Calihan. tiarbrecht also was the Titans hi.gh-scorer during his playing days. He was on the Detroit team in the 1914- 15 and 1915- 16 seasons.

---~--

Basketbal~ Needs Little Men Also

Clair Bee, famous coach and :authority. on basketball, says that while a championship team needs big men, it needs little men too.

"There is a plac:e for the little .fellow," writes Bee. "He is better coordinated. faster, trickier, a better ball-handler, by far the superior dribbler, and his superiority in starts, stops, pivots, change .of direction and the use of inside and outside screens make him invaluable in his t..eam's offense. In the quick break, it is always the little fellow who spearhea.ds the attack. And he's the one who usually eomes up with the stolen ball that wins the ball game."

POSTPONED (CARROLL (GAME RESCHIEDULED ,

The Detroit-John Carroll basl~etball game that was postponed December 9, will be played in Cleveland March 2. The game was called when a power failure at the Cleveland Power Conw~ny plunged the area into darkness a few minutes before game time. .

The Titans also meet the Blue Streaks at Lincoln High January 22.

The Classics t.ook four points f.rom Lucky '8' to remain in a tie with the 49'er's for second.

In other matches, the Union Room swcpt t heir series from the Pinheads: while the Bears took four from the Ohioans.

The Upsets took three points from the Gizmos in the only contest which did not see a clean sweep.

The race, centered around the Cougars, Cardinals, Classics, and the 49'er's, closes in two weeks with the last week being used as position week.

Kudoes to Robert J. Calihan for tIie job he has done with the Titfl,n varsity basketball team. It holds only a .500 won-loss record and hasn't defeated a major opponent yet; nevertheless. the coach and his squad deserve a bouquet of laurel wreaths.

Calihan has imparted some of his own basketball wizardry to the team that holds the dubious distinction of losing more games than any Titan five in history. But the boys who made that record last season have turned into an aggressive, victory-minded squad that has lost only to some of the nation's better teams.

Their three eastern conquerors are among the best on the Atlantic coast and the other victor is a definite threat to cop the Big Ten cage crown.

tilts in the closing minutes of each game. There hasn't been and probably will not be any embarrassing losses this season.

Most of the men on this team are veterans of last year but there is little resemblance in ,their play. Every man on the starting five has shown improvement but none so much as Bill Ward. Mediocre at best a year ago

he has turned into the team's steadiest player. .. .. ..

ONE OTHER reason for the Titan's new court look is Ed Bartz. He is a two-time monogram winner but did not play last winter. Bartz gets better with every game, and his coaches expect him to break out in a scoring rash soon.

He COUldn't pick a better time than this week-end when Marquette and MSC are ,the Titan foes. Don't be surprised if Bartz leads the Titans to f1 double upset. Detroit's offense has func

tioned satisfactorily this season but its big improvement has been on defense. And it is on defense that Calihan has co!;lcentrated. . .. ..

"WE HAVEN'T given anyone anything. Whatever our opponents make, they make the hard way," Calihan stated. If highscoring foes can slow down, he figures the Titan. attack will function well enough to beat them.

A little more support from the student body may be just what Bob Caliha.n and his boys need for a winning sea.son. The basketball team gets the

center of attention Saturday night but on Saturday afternoon the klieg lights are on the swimming team.

* .. * AT THE BOYS' Club pool

some of the University 's best athletes open the i I' sea~on against the Toronto YMCA, and they will probably open it before a handful of students.

The team deserves ~ better turnout than it usually gets. They are good and their meets are interesting. The first MVC trophy to be

won by Detroit may be captured by the Titan' natators. Their slowest times last year were faster than the best times turned in at the Valley meet.

* .. * ONLY ONCE last winter did

they swim before a full house. Even then the spectators did not come to see them but rather a diving exhibition by Ginny Fitzgerald, an Olympic finalist last summer.

Many of those who came to Miss Fitzgerald were back the following week to see the team.

There will be no lovely divers at the Boy's Club tomorrow, but the Swimming contest will more than make up for it.
