Are Scheduled For Today THE SPORTING LADY By BENCH WARMER- x,'11 I- -4 This afternoon at 2 p.m. excitement is breaking forth in the guise of a winter sports party, and incidentally, it doesn't include tobogganing and skiing, but a kidnaping, and all amateur detectives will be welcome . . . Clues will be left in hopes that a rescuing can take place ... Snow games and last but not least, refreshments will be in effect during the course of the after- roon . . . Outdoor Sports Manager Mabel Allison can supply any additional information . .. And reports of the party held on the last Saturday sound most intriguing and show why winter is getting more and more popular as it wears on, even in spite of frozen ears, fingers and the like . . . On occa- sxons such as this, you really find the cold walk to and from the W.A.A. building definitely worth the struggle .. . And speaking of outdoor sports, there is a meeting at 10 a.m. at the Union for anyone interested in forming an Ann Arbor Ski Club . . . Mr. Roger Piersol will be in charge and students, faculty and townspeople are urged to come ... There will be some discussion of a ski meet to be held in the Arboretum the following Saturday at which ribbons will be awarded to the winners of the three class divisions and exhibition skiing will take place and there's a rumor that some jumping will occur although it has not been verified as yet . .. Here's a good practical use for some of the ski suits that have been in evidence on campus lately . . . And Winter HangsOn . .. March 7 the W.A.A. is sponsoring a winter sports house party at White Lodge (for you who are not better informed it's near Pinckney) . . . They will leave here Saturday afternoon, have dinner and breakfast there and return late Sunday morning . . .

And she's got plenty on her hands what with both the National Telegraphic and the Intramural Swimming Meets occurring at 7:30 p.m. on March 19 in the Union Pool . . . To enter either, one must be timed previous-to the meet, and to prevent everyone arriving at the last minute, notices have been sent out to the different houses and dorm- itories to appear on a certain week at one of the following times,.5:30 p.m. Tuesday and Thursday, 9-11 a.m. Monday, 8-11 a.m. Wednesday, 9:30-11 a.m. Friday, and 8:30-11 a.m. Saturday.. .

During this period of con- stant exposure to wind and dampness you should not fail to get a FACIAL n Skulls And Skeletons Grin At Medical Dance Guests Ferom Union Walls Ghoulish skulls, grinning skeletons and a general morbid overtone of death were emphasized in decorations for the third annual Caduceus dance which greeted more than 300 couples who attended the function in the Union Ballroom. From the title: "Der Totentanz"- the Dance of Death, which hung over the stairway giving access to the Ball- room, to the seven-foot skull glaring down from above the solemn, black- robed orchestra, the entire scheme of decorations was a grim reminder of the constant opponent of the medical profession. Gruesome Decorations For the past three years the dec- orations of the annual dance given by the Senior Class of the Medical School for the students and faculty of that school and members of the profession have been unique in their line, being carried out by means of the gruesome mingling of humor and horror in the pictures. On the prosceniumon either side of the orchestra robed and cowled skeletons played a silent accompani- ment for the "Totentanz," while perched on the mantelpiece at the north end of the Ballroom an actual skeleton waggishly shook his finger at the dancers below. 'Time Marches On' Next to the proscenium, on the west wall, a skeleton on stilts stalked across the pages of history, leaving a bloody trail behind him: "Time Marches On!" Above the north fire- place was a poster repeated from last year, depicting a surgical maneuver, while above it was displayed the "Ob" or obstetrical call, bugaboo of the leisure-loving medico. More posters, on the east wall, showed a scythe sweeping in a "har- vest" of skulls, a cowled skeleton looking in on an autopsy, and two symbolical paintings entitled "Death Takes a Holiday" and "Say When!" Decorations in the ballroom itself were completed by a large silver and black caduceus, the symbol of the medical profession, which consists of Meicury's winged rod with two snakes entwined about it, at the south end, and another poster, "Rainbow's End," at the left of the proscenium. 'Michigan's Unbeatables' A more humorous note was struck in the hall leading to the dance floor, where was hung a large portrait of "Michigan's Unbeatables," twelve members of the Medical School fac- ulty drawn up in football formation, (waterboy included,) with the follow- ing legend below: "They haven't been scored on yet! "For four years the present Senior Class has been unable to pick any holes to slip through this defense. "We believe that this team has the strength, weight, and craftiness to whip any Mid-western aggregation. Are at their best in a dry field, al- though we feel they are equally good mudders." In the painting several outstanding characters of the Medical School could easily be identified. Among them were Dean Albert C. Fursten- berg at left halfback, cracking the whip over his line; Dr. Carl V. Weller at right half, armed with a scythe and rule book; and Dr. Charles W. Edmunds, cradling in his arms a sub- machine gun. The painting, according to the sig- nature, was executed by E. Shrdlu, probably the notorious Etaoin Shrdlu who has frequently appeared in newspaper accounts in the past. l) a 1I eM- US LJ I Final tryouts for the singing, danc- ing and speaking parts in this year's Junior Girls Play, "Sprize," are to Brilliant Hues Of Gowns be held from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. today in Give Contrast To Somber the Rehearsal Room of the League, Ed.(ith Zerbe, '37, chairmian, an- Color Scheme nounced.

Any eligible junior women was attended to its limited capacity may tryout for any parts they desire of 600 dancers. The macabre motif of the decora- tive scheme was nullified by the va- riety of color and attractiveness of the gowns worn. Helen MacDonald, Detroit, with John MacNeal, '36M., the publicity chairman was seen in a blue velvet gown, studded with rhinestones. Elizabeth Davis, Ann Arbor, who attended with Douglas S. MacIntyre '36M, wore a deep blue crepe formal, cut along simple lines. Miss Davis wore gold sandals and crystal ac- cessories. Mrs. George B. Higley was seen in an unusual green taffeta for- mal with tight bodice, full skirt and high neck trimmed with a tailored bow and gold nailheads. Irene Summerfield, the guest of John Bunting, '36M, appeared in a white satin formal which featured a train and three large red roses at the waistline. Elizabeth Bell, '36, who with Charles Knerler, '36, was seen in a striking crepe formal of dark bril- liant blue. The color was set off by rhinestone clips at the shoulders and a matching rhinestone buckle. Flor- ence Harper, '36, was seen dancing with James Cook, '39M. Miss Harper wore an attractive silk crepe formal in light green with high neck and cap sleeves. A lovely white brocaded for- mal, with a low neckline and full skirt was worn by Jean Neson, '36. Hazel Hanlon was also seen on the dance floor.
