Skits from the Junior Girls' play, "For the Love of Pete," will also be presented it was announc- ed, and of course, the fashion show to bem presented by Crowley-Mil-f ner's is a feature of the entertain- ment.{ REVIEWS HISTORY OF TWO COLLECES About 35 years ago Ypsilanti was known as a woman's school and Ann Arbor as a men's. There were between five and six hundred stu-; dents at Ypsi. Mrs. Ellen Rossen attended there, and later taught school for several years. "The college women of today are more flapperish, but also morea self-possessed and resourceful. They probably took their work1 more seriously then, though hu- man nature remains the {same,"j she said in a interview.1 "When I taught school, the pupils were each given a number,1 and went by that through theI year. They answered to it instead of their names. While calling rollj if there was a hesitancy in answer, ing I was pretty sure someone wasI most enough to ruin any Thanks-' giving dinner, don't you think so?1 And the only reason we have to have school is because the Board ' of Regents or somebody thinks it good for us. If they could only remember the days of their youth .more distinctly-as distinctly as some of them claim to-we would have a holiday for the whole week end. And if they won't consider the Sstudents'viewpoint, they should at least think of the poor, overwork- ed professors and instructors. I'm sure they don't enjoy their turkey dinners-if they can afford turkey -any more than we do for think- ing of the classes they must con- fduct the next day. Because they kknow that those students whotare { conscientious enough to show up, probably will be physically incap- able of listening to a lecture or of reciting due to the fact that they consumed too much turkey or something today. There really is something to be thankful for though, and that is 'that the auto ban was raised for a whole day. The only thing is that it wasn't announced in time for most of us to have our cars shipped to us here at school, and since comparatively few people live near enough to go home,. they won't have much chance to avail themselves of the privilege. But then, I know we should be thank- ful for small favors and I do here- by take this opportunity to express [my gratitude publicly, I mean I actually do. And I hope, no one becomes ill over the holiday. Rho Epsilon Delta-RED-a fra- ternity of red heads is the latest Greek letter organization at the University of Wisconsin.

E E[i } ! i3 I I " DESIGN COURSE IS I OPEN TO WOMEN Landscape design is a field of work offering. many opportunities to women, according to Professor Aubrey Tealdi, of the Landscape Design department. "Certain phases of landscape de- sign offer excellent nelds for the I professional woman designer," said Professor Tealdi. "Notably in the field of domestic landscape design, the development of home grounds and country estates ith, their endless opportunity for beauty and convenience, women have a chance to distinguish themselves. Both in this country and in England some women practitioners stand in the front ranks of the profession. "Several women graduates from the Department of Landscape De- sign are practicing in the United States today with decided success. Every one of them does credit to the department and to the Uni- versity. Their records prove that there is a place for women in the profession provided they are will- ing to devote themselves whole- heartedly to their work." Subscribe for the Michiganensian now.
