Here's the first thing . . . Sign the ballot at the bottom of the page and send it or take it to Barbour Gym as soon as possible so the people in charge of it all can know your feelings about it ... Exciting rumors have been going around about the W.A.A. Sports Spread next Thursday . . . We have been hearing wonderful things about the decorations . . . Lovely spring flowers, place cards, and everything that goes with a banquet . . . The best part of it is that anyone can come, whether she has been out for sports this year or not . . . The tickets are only 35 cents, which covers food and entertainment . . . The place is the Barbour Gym banquet hall and it starts at 6 o'clock. All those who have won athletic points or awards of any kind should take special notice . . . Dr. Bell will present the winners' cup for volley ball to A.E.Phi, the intramural basketball championship to Zone 5, and all the class numerals and M's . . . The six girls who won free playing passes from the University golf course will receive recognition too . . . The banquet is to be very informal . . . Everyone is to wear sports clothes ..-. Check Up On Points..*. All those who haven't yet handed in their W.A.A. points should hand them in on a slip of paper in one of the boxes in Barbour Gym and W.A.B. before Tuesday night . . . Tickets for the banquet may be bought from Louise Lockeman, Hope Hartwig, Louise Paine, Janet Allington, Betty Greve, or Lois Spreen . . . Better get them right away because the space is limited . . . Much news from the badminton fas this week . . . The University team lost to the Ann Arbor Club Wednesday evening by a score of'six matches to three . . . Very sad, but we can console ourselves with the thought that the result might have been different if there had been time to play the last four mixed doubles matches . . . Because we expected to gather in the points in that division . . . Anyway, to get down to the bitter facts, we won only one of the four women's doubles . . . Louise Paine, women's badminton manager, and Margot Goodrich defeated Miss Hilda Burr and Mrs. A. E. Boak, 15-2, 14-15, and 15-2 . . .

And oh, yes,' sign up according to zone, sorority, or dormitory ...t The members of Club basketball went to a meet in Battle Creek lastX Saturday. . . At least that was what they were supposed to do. . . Thirteenr sleepy but ambitious individuals arose at 6 o'clock in the morning and after a breakfast at Snappy Joes they were ready to leave at 8 o'clock. . . The1 troupe met a terrific fog in Jackson and debating the fact that it was then' after nine o'clock, that they were supposed to be in Battle Creek at 9:30, and that they were then not quite half way there, they decided to turna around and come home -. - Just to make the day complete, a trailer was found blocking the roadt home and the athletes were forced to while away an hour in a school house. When they arrived in Ann Arbor again they had lunch at Snappy Joes and played basketball in Barbour Gym.. . The names of the adventurers, ast afterwards divulged, are Ann Schinman, Janet Allington, Virginia Banning,a Virginia Donahue, Barbara Kanouse, Martha Tillman, Norma Curtis, Betty Lyon, Sally Kenny, Louise Paine, Miss Hartwig, Miss Peasley and Miss Saurborn ... Here is the chance for sororities, dormitories, and league houses to get their ping pong stars in the public eye . . . Each house should pick a doubles team from the best players and sign up for the University tournament in Barbour Gym. . . Lois Spreen is in Charge .. . Shooting igh. . And down to the rifle gallery 'where we heard the results of last week's meet . . . Michigan tied for second place with the University of Kentucky (yassuh) while the University of Missouri won with the nearly perfect score of 498 . . . Contributing a lot to last week's scores were Betty Robertson's 100 (we're told it took her an entire afternoon as she rested after each perfect hit and waited until the psychological time for another) and Betsy Odell's 98 . . . . You can hear the crack of rifle shots almost any afternoon down in the W.A.A. building . . . WE found Betty Robertson, Eileen Lay (who, by the way, shot a 99 while we were there) Helen Cayle and Elizabeth Dedell all there Thursday . . . And from 4 to 6 p.m. Mondays and Tuesdays, Cap- tain G. M. Wallington of the R.O.T.C. gives instruction . . . Here's your chance to learn_. .. After asking death in an exciting trip to the Coliseum Thursday and alternately dodging cars and slipping on the ice, we donned skates and in a none too steady manner approached Ice Hockey Manager Angie King who after skating several circles around us deigned to stop and tell the fundamentals of the game . . . Then we viewed with admiration and no small degree of envy the smooth skating of "Tink" Johnston . . . Jean Jack- son, Doris Mosesson, Margaret Shuptrine, and Sitri Mattson were very much in evidence during the course of the afternoon . . . An amusing event occurred Tuesday when Miss Burr, who teaches the course found herself under Tink Johnston . . . as the result of a sudden collision . . . As these two are the best skaters in the class, it was a considerable surprise to all . . . Nap Or Meeting.. . Arriving carly at the W.A.A. Board Meeting which occurred last Wednes- day, we found Kate Landruin curled up in a corner of one of the sofas sleep- ing soundly and everyone looking at her enviously . . . eventually enough arrived to constitute a quorum and Brend Parkinson brought the meeting to order . . . Mabel Allison brought up the matter of the Winter Sports House Party to be held at White Lodge Country Club March 7 . . . The cost will be approximately $1.50 and it will include the afternoon there, dinner, lodging and breakfast the next morning . . . And they've promised to get back by noon Sunday . . . The lists are still up in W.A.B. and Barbour Gym . . . Sally Kenny was officially appointed as Swimming Manager . . . The athletic conference with high school girls scheduled for April 25 were widely discussed and the dates of March 9-21 were set for petitioning for W.A.A. offices . . . That includes executive offices and sport managerships . . . Then KatK Landrum brought up the matter of the new women's swim- ming pool that has been discussed for W.A.B. . . . Not much campus opin- ion on the question has been ventured, so, in order to find the general consensus of feeling on campus about it all, a ballot was suggested . . It may be very important so sign now . .

It is urged that seniors make a special effort to rent their caps and gowns from the League, and to buy their collars from Senior Society, says Miss Greve. Other matters to be dealt with in the meeting are the planning of a breakfast after Assembly Ball and consideration of the tapping of new members at the time of Installation Banquet. This is the first time that Senior Society has tapped at the same time as Mortarboard, honorary senior society. Formerly, new mem- bers have been elected by Senior So- ciety at the fall Assembly Banquet. Last Tuesday night Miss Alice Lloyd, dean of women, invited the 14 members of Senior Society to her home for dinner. Miss Ethel Mc- Cormick, social director of women, was the honored guest.
