Program Plan
Theil Names Committee
To Investigate Proposed
'Defense Preparation'
Di3cu9sion of the proposed plan
to institute several new voluntary
courses in physical education and
military science or nursing aid in
accordance with defense prepara
tion highlighted the meeting of the
Student Council yesterday.
The courses as proposed by
Dean Thompson and a faculty
committee are to be under the
guidance and support of the Stu
dent Council, and are to be so
planned as to appeal to outsiders
as well as students in accordance
with the present University of
Chicago set-up.
Student Council Backing.
The Student Council will
be
backed, by University funds in its
plans, and a I organizations will
be asked to cooperate including
the present Defense Committee
and the intra-murals organization.
The physical fitness program al
ready planned for coeds also will
be incorporated in this attempt.
Feeling that perhaps too little
was known as to the exact pur
pose of the plan and the Student
Council's part in its program, a
committee was appointed by Bur
ton Theil. Council president, con
sisting of Mary Ellen Robison.

Name being discussed yesterday on the campus was Jimmy
Joy, whose baud will play for the, Junior-Senior IVoin Friday
night. Innocents announced after weeks of mystery.
Actually a follow by the name of James Monte Maloney
will play for the Prom, but ever since bis first engagement
after graduation from the University of Texas, Maloney has
been Joy.
Joy's band bas played at loading; hotels in all the largo
cities of the middle-west and east coast. He was a great favor
ite at the Trianon in Chicago, especially among the collegiate
crowd.
Itill IVJarsh, Union director, said Joy and bis band have
played on all the major networks and were highly praised
recently when they were leaturea
on the Fitch Bandwagon.
Pretty Betty Burns is the soloist
of the organization which pro
vides plenty of novelty numbers
including an unusual sax section
and a well-received quintette.
Jimmy believe is "solid sweet"
style with full ensemble. He him
self is the only band leader in
America who plays two clarinets
simultaneously. ,
"Be there early" has become
the theme of the Prom as Inno
cents encourage dancers to be at
the coliseum by 9 p. m. for the
"surprise event'' of the evening.

The new BDOC, the Prom Girt,
defeated candidates for BDOC and
beauty queens will all be intro
