Jordon, Prince, Vogle To Perforin In Lecture Hall For WSSF Benefit
The biggest show ever presented at the University without an admission charge will feature headline entertainers from Miami Beach night clubs this noon in the lecture hall, Main Campus.
Bill Jordan and David Elliott, duo-pianists at the Bar of Music; Jack Prince, vocalist at the Park Avenue lounge; and Lou Vogle, impressionist at the Blackamoor Room, will be heard in an hour-variety show, climaxing the
long
World Student Service Fund campaign this week.
These four top entertainers immediately recognized the need for support of WSSF when approached bv Ann Childress and Henry Caballero, co-chairmen of the drive, and were openly enthusiastic in volunteering their talents for today’s benefit performance. Jack Prince claimed that this would give him an opportunity to repay the nightly visits he has from his many University friends.

Ghosts Wake After 20 Years
Boom Skeleton Of '26 Used As Classroom
A casual observer might have witnessed a strange odyssey one blistering hot day last week if he had been in the vicinity of Block 5.
The class period had hardly started, when out of Room 511 came an advanced French class. The instructress, Miss Anna Ceci, noticing that several of her students were beginning to turn an unhealthy red because of the heat, had suggested that they hold class outside.
Gathers Her Brood This turned out to be impossible. All the benches were taken up with impromptu fraternity meetings and ether students trying to ward oT the heat by shooting-the-breeze. Casting a despairing look back at the ov< n known as Room 511, Miss Ceci gathered her brood around her, and matched off to the new classroom building with the idea of finding an empty room there.
This also proved to be futile, all rooms were occupied. What now? Should the class bow in the face of
the elements and acknowledge defeat? Never. That would be contrary to the spirit of the U. of M.
Boy Scout Blazes Trail
So, without a backward glance, the gallant group marched out into the vast, unexplored woods west of the main building. One student (a iormer boy scout) blazed a trail on the trees.
At last the skeleton of the in-completed building loomed up before them. Here they hesitated and looked at each other. Dare they use this relic of a bygone era as a classroom? Well, why not? That is what it was originally intended for, and that is what it was soon to be when work o!, the other buildings was finished.
And so, cooled by nature’s own air-conditioning, ringing French nasal sounds began to echo through the aging framework. Startled ghosts, roused from a 20 year sleep, looked down on this, the first class to be held in the new building.
U-M Opens Medical College In October
While the U-M quitely announced Wednesday that medical school classes would begin here in the fall, Miami and Jacksonville continued to battle for legislative action on seperate bills which call for establishment of a state medical and dental school in those cities.
Tuition Plan Proposed
President Bowman F. Ashe also disclosed a plan whereby the University would accept Florida residents as students at a special tuition rate which would be paid by the state. This recommendation was included in a letter to Dade county Senator D. C Coleman yesterday, Dr. Ashe said.
Authorization for the school of medicine was given at a trustee’s board meeting last Friday and was viewed as a complete surprise by state legislators. University officials explained, however, that this institution has planned for some time to organize such a school and that the city had long known of these plans.
Although medical instructors and some special material will be needed immediately no large amount of equipment nor additional buildings will be required the first two years. This period is largely devoted to laboratory and classroom work, Dr. Ashe pointed out.
Classes Scheduled for October
A three-year pre-med course has been offered here for a number of years and will provide many of the students for the first year classes which are scheduled to begin next October, he said.
In discussing state subsidization of Florida residents who enroll as students, the University president referred to a recent Citizens commission report which frowned on the establishment of a state medical college but had recommended that the state pay tuition for Florida students attending medical schools in other states.
