Juke Dance Scheduled October 24 With lightning response to stu dent desires as evpressed in an open letter to the Daily yesterday, the Union will sponsor a "Juke box" dance this Saturday night, Oct. 24, in the ballroom from 10 until 12 p. m. Free of admission, all dancers need is a nickel to play the nickel odian orf a friend to do it for him. If this initial juke box dance proves successful, the Union will sponsor other such dances each weekend. The letter written by Ward Brunson asking why the Union couldn't sponsor this timely solu tion to dating problems stated that downtown shows were "prac tically impossible to get into on Saturday nights" and that even if one could find a seat, the present prices are exhorbitant. It was suggested that a juke box dance would be a solution to this enter tainment problem. Immediately taken up by Union officials, arrangements were made to test the idea, and it now re mains to the students whether or not this inovation will be sup ported.
