Nancy Stackhouse, of Erie, Pa., and James Wallace, '35, and Geor- g i n a Karlson, '35, a n d Richard Shoupe, '35, will lead the grand march which is scheduled for just before intermission. Wallace an d Shoupe are co-chairman of the party. As has been customary in the past, the tower and Taproom will be open to both men and women guests at the party, and women attending have been granted late permission by the office of the dean of women. Cummins will arrive in Ann Arbor after an 18-month engagement at the Trianon Ballroom in Chicago. Before the start of that run he played at a number of hotels in New York and Chicago and was selected from a list of 54 orchestras applying to open the Hotel New Yorker in New York City several years ago. Tickets for the party were placed on sale about 10 days ago and mem- bers of the Executive Committee in charge announced a week ago that all had been sold. Since that time rumors have been heard that holders of tickets have been offered as high as twice the price they originally paid on resales. Patrons for the dance include President Alexander G. Ruthven and Mrs. Ruthven, Regent James -. Murphin and Mrs. Murphin, Regent Edmund C. Shields and Mrs. Shields, Dean Joseph A. Bursley and Mrs. Bursley, and members of the Union Board of Directors.

T ickets Selling Rapidly; Sororities Plan To Give Breakfasts After Ball One field at least that is safe and sacred to masculine endeaver in a day of general feminine encroach- ment is the profession of engineer- ing for if the records of the College of Engineering are any index, the presence of women in engineering is not now, and is not tending to be- come, an ordinary circumstance. Of the 1,197 students now enrolled in the engineering college, only two are women. Both are seniors. Doris Clinton, who entered the school as a freshman, is studying aeronautics and mechanical engineering, while Eleanor Tarbell, who entered only this year as a graduate from Tri- State, is finishing a course in civil engineering. This proportion of men to women in the entire school is not at all out of the ordinary, according to Mrs. Camilla B. Green, assistant secretary of the engineering college, who keeps the records of Michigan's women en- gineers. Peak enrollment was reached in the war years, and then only eight or nine were attending at the same time. Then followed a space of six years in which there were no women in all the engineering college. Of late the number seems stabilized between two and six. Reason for the scarcity of women in this field is not that women can- not learn engineering, for they do take all the classes, even shopwork, on an equal footing with the men, and their scholarship compares fa- vorably. The reason is, rather, that it is difficult for them to find em- ployment after graduation. Outside of laboratories and drafting rooms, there is little work for them. Com- panies will not employ them for ex- ecutive work because men would re- sent taking orders from them. From 1913 to 1927 nine women were graduate here, five of whom civil engineers, three were chemical engineers, and one an electrical en- gineer. Before that records show that in 1895 Sara Parker, a structural en- gineer, received her degree here. Marriage, both before and after practising. 7 E : .
