Bungling Brothers circus will re-
turn to Barbour gymnasium for al
triumphal engagement of five per-
formances scheduled to begin with.
a matinee at 3 o'clock on Friday,
December 7. The promoters,
namely the women of the soph-j
omore class, have arranged a stu-
pendous production at great ex-
pense. They have at no little
trouble secured for the entertain-
ment of their patrons many
famous feature acts imported from
abroad.
Owing to the excessive secrecy
which surrounds the exclusive na-1
ture of these acts the Bungling
Brothers hesitate to reveal moreI
than the names of the performers, I
and these will not be announced at
once. Moreover, the cricus will
have the trite but indispensable
accessories of sawdust rings, pea-
nuts, and pink lemonade.
The Bungling Brothers have in
their 1928 big show, outmatched
their nearest rivals with the ver-
satility of their acts and the mag-
nificent glamor of their perform-
er's costumes.
Those who want to be assured
of a seat for any and all of the
five performances should purchase
their tickets early in the week.
They may be secured at the dormi-
tories and sororities, or at a booth
in Barbour gymnasium Tuesday,
Wednesday, and Thursday. Ac-
cording to the advance sales re-
port the circus's return engage-
ment is going to surpass even the
epoch-making performances of last
year.
JUDGE FEAD WILL
ADDRESS .A. U. -W
Judge Lewis Fead, of Port Huron,
who is chief justice of the supreme
court of Michigan, will address the,
American Association of University
Women at 2:45 o'clock on Saturday,
December 8, at Martha Cook build-
ing.
The legislative group of A. A. U.
W., of which Miss Sarah Wheadon
is chairman, will act as hostesses.
According to Mrs, Hugh Keeler,
president of A. A. U. W., every
member of the organization is in-
vited to bring a guest to hear
Judge Fead. Mrs. Keeler has also
requested that the contributions
for the school museum project
sponsored by A. A. U. W., be sent
in as soon as possible.
"Women play a very limited part
in the field of play production,"
says Mrs. Hallie Flanagan. "The
greatest work in both direction
and design is still by men, and
probably will continue to be. Wom-
en have been limited to acting for
so long. Also they are not willing
to go through the mill, the long
process of learning how to build
sets, arrange the lighting, paint
the scenery. - A producer doesn't.
have time to tend to these things,
but he must know how they are
done."
At last I managed to edge in a
word abou4 the play production
classes. Mrs. Flanagan said, "I
hate to prophesy any results of
these classes, because I have been
wrong so many times. However I
am committed to their cause. Your
activities in Ann Arbor are splen-
did. The movement from the stu-
dents it what counts."
"Women are doing more in the
field of production now than ever1
before, are they not?" I asked.
League Bazaar Will ;Be

Pirates, gory and swashbuckling,'
will man the "Shiny Knife" which
puts into port for a two-day visit
to the Women's League and Inter-
church bazaar. The ship is due
Friday, December 7, and its dock-
ing is awaited with great expec-
tancy by all those who are in on
the secret of its cargo. Pirate
ships often carry strange and
curious cargoes of untold wealth,
and the "Shiny Knife" surpasses
all others.
The pirate crew has been re-
cruited from the Alpha Phi house
especially for the occasion, great
care having been taken in choos-'
ing trustworthy men for such a
precarious undertaking, no less
a tea room wherein luncheon, tea,
and dinner will be served to the
music of Dead Eye Mower's or-
chestra and to the singing of the
High Seas quartet. The Scotch
sailor, McCurdy, Armed-to-the-
teeth Swaine of Detroit, and
Knock-em-dead Ritchie, also of
Detroit, are going to entertain by
singing more pirate songs.
The true pirate atmosphere will
be . emphasized by the erie light
from dripping candles, by the whis-
key bottles standing around, though
'tis indeed rumoured that these
bottles will perchance be al-
ready emptied.
But the only plunder to be in
evidence is that already aboard
the ship, with maybe a little levied
from civilians for the privilege of
dining on the "Shiny Knife."
