Although a certain Univer

he won't be driving for a

Omaha just sitting.
It is sitting because some of
the boys in his house borrowed
it when they went on a skip.
Others in the house did not
want the skippers to skip. So
they removed the front seat
from the car.
Since it was too difficult to
drive without the services of a.

Tvio Students
Attend ISA
Region illeef
Jo Hoff and Jan Hepperly rep
resented BABW and ISA at the
annual Rocky Mountain Regional
Convention of ISA last week.
Miss Hoff, BABW president, and
Miss Hepperly, ISA executive sec
retary, travelled to Colorado
Springs for the meeting last Fri
day and Saturday.
The region includes all uni
versities and colleges in Colo
rado, Nebraska, South Dakota,
North Dakota and Kansas. The
convention is held in the fall of
each year. National ISA conven
tion follows in the spring.
"The purpose of the meeting,"
said Miss Hepperly, "was to ac
quaint students from various col
leges and universities with the ac
tivities, organizations and prob
lems of ISA, IWA (independent
women) and IMA (independent
men) on other campuses."
For the two-day meeting, Miss
Hoff was appointed temporary
secretary. New officers for the
coming year were elected Satur
day afternoon at the general busi
ness meeting.
Among those chosen were:
Stan Drier, president; Univer
sity of Colorado; and Jane Hoff,
vice president, University of
Omaha. The University of
Omaha was also chosen as host
school for the regional conven
tion next year.
"This was one of the most in
teresting, instructive and informa
tive meetings I have ever at
tended," said Jo Hoff. "I hope for
two things: that the University
will be well represented at the Na
tional ISA convention in Okla
homa in March, so that more of
our students may become aware of
the fine work being done by inde
pendents on other campuses, arid
that students on the University
campus will cooperate and share
in the planning, organization and
attendance of the regional conven
tion in Omaha next year. Omaha
University is a small university,
but Nebraska could profit from
watching and working with that
group."

Furnishing the music for the
annual turn - about date, ball
sponsored by Mortar Board' will
be Tex Beneke and his orchestra.
Though the name, Mortar
Board Ball, will not be on the
University social calendar this
year, the traditional affair will
still take place; but under a
different title Black Masque
Ball.
The ball's title is in accordance
with its theme Black Masque.
Couples may wear black masques,
which will be sold by Tassels, to
the ball.
Selling tickets for the ball
starting Monday, Nov. 12, will be
Tassels. Tickets are priced at $3

When Tex Beneke's orches
tra begins his engagement Dec,
12 in the Coliseum from 8 p.m.
to 12 midnight, saxophone
sleuths attending will notice
that Beneke's saxophone is older
and. more battered than any
other instrument in his orches
tra. The Beneke saxophone is a
legend. He bought it ten years
ago when he was working with
Ben Young's orchestra. When he
joined Glenn Miller's band, he
was using the same saxophone.
Today it is still Beneke's only
saxophone.
It originally cost $200 and
Beneke has spent over $750 dur
ing the past ten years for re
pairs. Beneke is known for his sax
work, but is equally famous
for his vocals. Tunes like "Kala
mazoo," "Chattanooga C h o o
Choo," "Ida" and his sax on
"Body and Soul" have sold mil
lions of copies.
Beneke was also featured in
two movies, "Orchestra Wives"
and "Sun Valley Serenade" with
the late Glenn Miller.
Featured vocalists with Ben
eke's band are Bill Raymond and
Shirley Wilson.
