Avenue Ray .Noble will bring
to this campus dance music with
a refined Oxford accent when he
plays for the last four dances in
the German Club Finals next
Friday and Saturday.
Noble has gained fame not
only for the top-notch group of
musicians he directs but also for
he many popular tunes he has
composed and which have filled
he air waves for the last tw-o
years or more.
Before he came to New York
early last year to organize his
band, Ray had composed the
words and music for such hits as
'Love Is the Sweetest Thing1,"
By the Fireside," "Goodnight
Sweetheart," and "The Very
Thought of You."

When he arrived in this coun
try, his fame as a composer had
preceded him to such an extent
that he was immediately snapped
up by Paramount to write songs
or pictures and went directly to
Hollywood.
"The Very Thought of You"
was followed by the Noble song
hit, "It's All Forgotten Now"
and "Why Stars Come Out at
Night," written for Paramounf s
Big Broadcast of 1936," in
which Noble and his orchestra
were featured in a ten-minute se

Pete Ivey, newly chosen di

to work yesterday after his ap
pointment to succeed. Harper
Barnes and pledged himself to
push the Student union into the
center of all events on the cam
pus.
Ivey expressed his ideal Stu
dent union as one which would
be the headquarters of all stu
dent extra-curricular activities
and the clearing house of many
academic activities.
Information, Aid
He continued, "If a student
has a desire to know anything
about his classes and grades, the
place for him to go is his dean's
office, but if there is anything
whatever a student should wish
to know about campus problems
and out-of -class functions, such
as publications, debates, athle
tics, dances, organizations, spe
cial movements, and student gov
ernment, the place for him to go
is the Student union. Graham
Memorial will be the middle man
to give information and aid."
Ivey has served as assistant
editor of the "Alumni Review"
on the campus this year and will
assume his. new . duties ?inLGra

of summer school.
Entertainments
The new director wishes to at

to offer and he intends to help
do this partly through the spon

humorist said that he would not
elaborate his many other plans
