Mt League Plans to Hold Mardi Gras to Replace Bazaar, Dec. 4, 5 LEACUE BALL 0DM WILE BE USED AS SETTINGFOR0 EVENT 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.

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 'MAKES DONATION VERSITY STUDENTS who are qualified to use them, there will soon be none left. ture demands, then, that written records be carefully guarded and Meals to Be Served by League; preserved so that even tradition Plan, Faculty, Fraternity, fades the written record will re- Sorority Night. main ever fresh. -- ,Plans for the annual cabaret W/OMEN TO PL AY were discussed by the central com- FINAL MATCHES mittee of the Sophomore Cabaret Qualifying Round Resul Tie for First Place. ts in As a result of the qualifying round of the golf tournament six women will enter the finals.
