Honors for brilliant individual play unquestionably belong to Illinois Tech’s goalie Glenn Witw— kinclt, [ire-junior Co-op. Playing his first game at hockey’s most difficult position, Glenn made numerous seemingly impossible saves. Players Roughen Game Two spirited but bm‘ef free-for. ails in the first two periods high- lighted a game that was unusually hard and rough all the way. For: tunately, there were no casualties. Four major penalties were dished out along with several minors, and at that the referees overlook- ed a goodly amount of illegal checking and high sticking. After games with Notre Dame and Northwestern, the Techawks are anxious for a return match with Lake Forest, confident in their ability to turn the tables.

The harsh bruss that accompanies the general run of "neonate” musical groups is delin- ilely on the way out.

He joined a travelling tent show as “The Vlr’orlds Greatest Accordion- ist” and, willie this was a bit prer mature, he did his best. to justify it. The orchestra proper started to form when Welk picked up a drummer on one of his side-trips from the tent show. Pieces were added until there was an aggrega» tion of six. At this stage of the group’s development, it started playing in hotels for more we tenuous; audiences th an the groups of farmers to which it had previously catered. The hotel en- gagements met with immediate success and started the ascension which is still continuing. Freuucnters of Chicago’s Trian- on and Aragon ballrooms are fami- liar with Welk’s tunes, as are use dio dialers the country over. They also know the voice of Jane Wal~ ton, the featured female vocalist of the hand. Jane takes a special interest in singing for lllinois In— stitute students, because her fa- ther was an engineer. She was born just on the American side of the U.S.-Mexican border by special request of her mother. The Wal- tons, senior, were living in Mexi- co, but Jane’s mother made the trip to the United States just in the nick of time. The current craze for Spanish music finds Miss Walton well pre- pared, for she could speak Spanish well before she beamed a. word of English. ”or ability to “sling the lingo” like a muchacha adds much to the popular (:ongas, rhumbas, and tangoes that the orchestra plays. Jerry Burke, a featured musl- cian with Lawrence Wclk’s on chestra, has the distinction of be- ing the first man to be featured on the new Novachord and one of the first few to play the electric organ in a dance band. A far cry from the church in which he start» ed as an organist, Jerry Burke has been featured with Walk for five years. When not massaging the ivorics on the electrical music makers, he indulges in his hob- bies — photography and automo- biles. Baseball Draws Sixty—Four Men At a baseball candidate’s meet- ing recently, some sixty-four men expressed eagerness to compete on the diamond this spring.

Head of the social committee is Charles P. Lachman, junior com" missioner from the civil engineer« ing department. Richard Talcott and Robert Arko, commissioners from the ERIE. and (1E depart ments respectively are also on the social committee. As many of the Illinois Tech diamonds-in-the-rough do not pos- sess formal dress, arrangements have been made to rent tuxedos and tails at a rate about 25 per cent lower than that usually charged, due to group purchasing. Friday, February 21 will be the day on which the representatives of the loaning company will take measurement for the “straight jackets.” This day, from 9 ’til 12 will be the only chance students will have to arrange for clothes. Complete with everything but un- derwear and shoes, the tuxedos will rent for three dollars, while the more elegant tails can be had for four dollars. There will prob» ably be a deposit. As a final warning to remem- ber that the available bids are go. lug—going and soon will be gone. There are now several open- ings on the Technology News reporting, sports, and business staffs.
