UNION TO GIVE DANCE BEFORE DARTMOUTH GAME

For the first time in its history the Union will give a dance on the night before the Dartmouth football game next week it was announced yesterday. Other attractions scheduled at the Union for the near future are slow-motion moving pictures of tennis stars, on next Wednesday, and Neil O'Hara who will speak on "Humorists and How They Get That Way," on October 28.

Anticipating an unusually large crowd at the Dartmouth dance, due to the fact that both the Brown and Princeton games are to be played away, the Union management has decided to limit the attendance to 700.

Tickets will be sold only to members of the Union, at the newsstand in the clubhouse. Prices of tickets will be announced later, with the names of the two orchestras engaged to play continuous music all through the evening, and with lists of the patronesses and ushers. The dance will start at 10 o'clock Friday evening and will continue until 4 o'clock the next morning.

To Serve Midnight Supper

The management intends to continue with last year's method of serving the midnight supper. In order to avoid confusion resulting from everyone crowding in to eat at the same time, each couple on entering the building, will be given a supper card on which will be stamped the exact hour at which they are to go in for supper.

The division of the crowd into groups, eating a quarter of an hour apart, is expected greatly to facilitate what would otherwise be a difficult task, the simultaneous serving of 700 people.

To Show Tennis Films

The slow-motion films, obtained by special arrangement with the U. S. Lawn Tennis Association for October 21, show the leading tennis players of the world making all forms of service and volley strokes. The motion is so retarded and repeated that it is possible for the observer to see, on the screen, exactly how these players execute their strokes.

The showing of these pictures will be the second instalment of a series of slow-motion films on athletics, intended by the Union management to prove helpful to those interested in seeing the best technique. At the exhibition of football pictures a short time ago, nearly 200 were turned away from the building for lack of room.

Tilden and Miss Wills Included

These pictures will include studies of Miss Helen Wills, Tilden, Johnston, Richards, and R. N. Williams 2nd '16. They show the cut, spin, and direction of the stroke, in some cases from several angles. The footwork and position of the player's body before and at the moment of contact between racket and ball is shown. Coach H. L. Cowles will point out the technique of the players and demonstrate methods of each play. The films thus afford an excellent opportunity to study the world's tennis champions at their best
