League Plans to Hold Mardi Gras to Replace

Chairmen Are Asked to Appoint
Committee Members
This Week.
STAGED WITH CABARET
Katherine Ferrin, '32, Chairman,
Outlines Plans for New
Project.
All the colorful pageantry of an
old world festival will form a vivid
background for the first annual
Mardi Gras which will be presented
Dec. 4land 5 by the League, in place
of the usual bazaar. The affair will
be staged in conjunction with the
Sophomore Cabaret, and will be
held in the main ballroom of the
League.
Replaces Bazaar.
Katherine Ferrin, '32, who is in
charge of the arrangements, stated
that the festival would be one of
the most unusual and entertaining
projects ever to be undertaken by
the League. "We hope to establish
it as a traditional event," she said,
"for the bazaar has long ago out-
worn its usefulness, and it has
been felt for some time that a sub-
stitute would be necessary."
The whole ballroom will be util-
ized for the two events, and the
Cabaret will also carry out the
festival motif, which will portray
a street scene. The center of the
ballroom will probably be used for
dancing and for the Cabaret enter-
tainment.
Luncheons and dinners will be
served by the League, while the
Cabaret will be open for tea and
supper dancing. It is planned to
have one dinner open exclusively
to the faculty, while the other will
be designated as fraternity and
sorority night.
Plan Entertainment.
The festival note will be further
emphasized by the entertainment
which is being planned. Floats may
be utilized to add to the appear-
ance of a street carnival, and cos-
tumes will further the effect.
Evelyn Neilson, '33, has replaced
Margaret O'Brien, '33, as assistant
chairman of the affair, and th
other members of the central com-
mittee include Vinselle Bartlett, '33,
chairman of entertainment; Helen
DeWitt, '33, chairman of decora-
tions; Ruth Duhme, '34, chairman
of finance, and Ruth obinson, '34,
chairman of costumes.

cent in a Mosaic of Song and
Story." Again the Standard Star,
published in New Rochelle, New

oratura voice and histrionic abil-
ity, Miss Vincent had the appear-
ance of a beautiful lady who had
stepped'from a golden frame and
was presenting a life picture."

Nine Universities Will Debate
Question of India's
Status.
The question of dominion status
for India has been finally chosen
by the nine universities which com-
prise the three triangles in the
Middle West as the subject for de-
b a t e between varsity women's
teams.
This topic was chosen from
among the several submitted by
the vote of each university. State
medicine received a very high rat-
ing despite the fact that it was de-
bated among the smaller colleges
last year. The Michigan speech de-
partmenit had originally submitted
the Indian question because it
holds especial interest at this time
when the affairs of India are at
such a critical point.
During the Varsity season the
Michigan women will meet teams
from Indiana and Northwestern
universities.
WILLIAM CLEMENTS
TO BENEFIT UNI
Rare American History Books
Reserved for True Students
to Keep Records Clear.
By Eleanor Mann, '34
"In Darkness Dwells The People
Which Knows Its Annals Not" must
have been fully realized by William
L. Clements, who by the donation
of an unusual collection of books
for research into early American
history has made it possible for
scholars at the University of Michi-
gan to enjoy the benefits of mas-
terpieces which ordinarily would be
utterly impossible due to the scar-
city and high prices of these books.
To Give Encouragement.
This extraordinary gift was do-
nated with a view to encourage-
ment of a love of rare and beautiful
books for their own sake as well as
an understanding of their value as
sources of material for historical
research. Randolph G. Adams, cus-
todian of the Library, confirms this
attitude when he states: "No, the
William L. Clements Library and
its books are not for the use of stu-
dents; this Library is intended for
the use of scholars, but no one is
likely to say that all students are
scholars." He feels very strongly
that if mistakes are to be made in
the administration of his duty that
they shall be in he matter of hos-
pitality rather than in the matter
of care. Unless the few surviving
copies of these books are placed
beyond the reach of all, save those
