"Everything considered, the League is one of the busiest places on campus. So much organization- al work stems from it, that by be- coming active in League affairs from the beginning of school, wo- men become familiar with the op- portunities which. the University offers them and form many friendships, too," Barbara Maier, '59, League president, said. ondence.

On alternate years the Women's Athletic Association and the Mich- igan Union! co - sponsor Spring Weekend and Michigras. Michi- gras, a carnival complete with parade and two nights of fun with games of chance, floor shows and carnival rides, was presented last Spring. In 1959 Spring Weekend reigns. Although there was some dis- cussion last year of making Michi- gras an annual affair, Spring Weekend will remain. "With its great potential, we feel that Spring Weekend will fill the bill to the ex- tent that Michigras would every year," Barry Shapiro, '59, Union president said. New Weekend Planned According to this year's coy chairmen, Steve Davis, '59BAd., and Penny Palmer, '60, students scan expect an entirely new Spring- Weekend. They will begin formu- lating definite plans for the affair sometime early this fall. All the events of Spring Week- end in 1957 were based on the theme/ "Cartoonival," symbolized by a character named Snootrac.. Festivities began on a Friday afternoon with a Darby Parade of 33 two-wheeled, decorated carts drawn by squads of costumed stu- dents.: At the finish line in front of the League, the carts were judged and points awarded to the housing units sponsoring the win- ning darbys. Chariot Race Held Also part of the afternoon's events was a chariot race in which' many of the darbys took part. It, too, was held beside the League and more points went to the win- ners' sponsors.' Friday night the major event of Spring Weekend, "Skit Night," was presented in Biill Auditorium with cartoonist, Al Capp, serving as master of ceremonies. Between the six skits presented by 12 men's and women's housing units, Capp, originator of "L'll Abner," !enter-' tained the audience by drawing his famous cartoon characters. The skits were varied, ranging from the winning production of a Japanese tragedy to a choral reading. The day's activity came to an end after "Skit Night" when Snootrac led the audience from Hill Auditorium to the diagonal for a "Jazz-Jamboree Mass Sing" and entertainment by a jazz band, a quartet and a juggler. ,Throughout the two-day dura-] 'ANN ARBOR CIIC TIHIEATIER OBSTACLE COURSE-One of Saturday's featured events is the wheelbarrow the weather permits. /9reien~ ts 1958-5 9 ..sagcon THE MATCHMAKER . .

The marathon, 36-hour broadcast featured comnentary on Spring Weekend by its committee chair- men and Al Capp plus the scheol- uled disc jockey show. A variety of outdoor events scheduled for Saturday had to be moved into Waterman Gymnasium due to the well-known Ann Arbor rain, but a little bit of water was not enough to dampen the spirits of the students. A faculty team played a team of students in a hilarious game of baseball-all players rode, on don-- keys. Also featured were relays and obstacle races and a "Sadie Hawk- ins" bicycle race held at Palmer Field between showers. Prizes Awarded Spring Weekend concluded Sat- urday night with a concert by the Michigan Men's Glee Club and a semi-formal dance, "Comic Cotil- lion," held in Waterman Gym- nasium. The co-chairmen added up the total points won by each housing unit and awarded the top men's, and women's house's hi-fi phono- graphs as grand prizes. Whatever the events of this year's Spring Weekend, it promises to be another fun-filled, relaxing, all-campus event. SOUTH PACIFIQ (Musical)' .
