Dances; Theater Proves

DININO ROOM INADEQUATE
Demand for rooms in the new
League building in which to enter-
tain parties at luncheon or dinner
is growing rapidly. Rooms which
it was not thought at the opening
of the building would be used for
such purposes have been utilized
almost daily for the many ban-
quets, dinners, and luncheons given
there. The main dining room has
already proved itself too small for
the crowds which flock there at
meal time.
Patronage by members and their
guests has,- in a short time, made
the League the most popular place
in town for parties of all kinds.
Husbands and men friends of
members have also found every
accomodation there. There are al-
ways large crowds at the dances on
Friday and Saturday evenings.
Offerings at the Lydia Mendels-
sohn theatre have proved immense-
ly popular with its patrons. "The
1 Beggar on Horseback" has been
1very well-received this week, and
the ticket sale has been excellent,
according to Diretcor Valentine B.
Windt. Play Production is hoping
to make enough money from this
production to warrant the con-
tinuance next year of its policy of
putting on gratis campus produc-
tions.
This current production will give
one more showing tonight to com-
plete a four day run. Monday night
a stock company, directed by Rob-
ert Henderson will open for a three
weeks' run. On the program for
the first week is George Arliss' or-
iginal production "The Green God-
dess," and George Bernard Shaw's
comedy, "You Never Can Tell."
The second and third weeks "Night-

Tickets for the W. A. A. installa-
tion banquet to be held on May 22
are now available at the FieldI
House. As is stated in the tenta-
tive calendar of events found in the'
back of the "M" book, the banquet
was originally planned for the 23rd
of this month, but, owing to the
plans for President Little's ban-
'uet, the date has been changed.+
The banquet will take place at 5:30
J'clock in order to give the Seniors
ample time to attend their tradi-'
tional Sing, and -also the May Fes-I
tival, both of which are to be held'
that night.
This event marks the official
.losing of the season. and is the
'ast social affair of the year for'
W. A. A. As has always been the'
'ustom in the past, the banquet
will be formal.

Campus Tour, Tennis Matches And
Tea Entertain 13 Visitors From
Junior CollegeI
Thirteen tennis players from'
Highland Park Junior College were
the guests of W. A. A. yesterday
afternoon. They were first taken
on a tour of inspection around the
campus and through the League
building.
At 3 o'clock they took part in a
series of tennis matches which
had been arranged with Michigan
women. Doubles, singles, and
amateur matches were played.
Rather than matches between
schools, they were friendly compe-
tition with mixed teams in the
doubles.- y
Tea was served to the visitors
and to the Physical Education fac-
ulty on the terrace at the field
house at 5 o'clock. Members of
the W. A. A. Board acted as hos-
tesses and tea was poured by Miss
Dorothy Colby of the Physical Ed-
ucation department. Margaret
Ohlson, '30, had charge of the ar-
rangements for the afternoon.

NOTICES(
Tryouts for Orchesis will be held
this morning from 10 to 12 o'clock
in Sarah Caswell Angell Hall.
Tennis matches in the Intra-
mural tournament are not being
played off rapidly enough. The first
matches should be finished by now.
There is only a short time remain-
ing and no time should be lost if
tLe tournament is to be finished
before the end of the year.
