PAGE SM. /THE MICHIGAN DAILY TUESDAY, DEC. 15, 1936 The Trimrose Tath Ann Arbor celebrated the last week-end before the holidays in grand style . . . the sophomores broke all traditions and held their class dance before vacation and the Law Club and many fraternities held dances . . . it was quite a fitting closing to the pre-holiday festivities . . . so now to tell you a little about it .. . At The Soph Prom.. .. Most important was the Sonh Prom . . . the ballroom was decorated with Christmas trees, just dozens of little ones around the orchestra with large ones on each side of the door and down at the end of the room . . . Jean Keinath and George Cosper were there and Marian Baxter and Chuck Coe. . . the sophomores really turned out en masse, saw Marcia Connell and Bob Windsor and Betty Young and Mar Rogers.. . and of course the upper- classmen always crash the party . . .Betty Ronal and "Bonth" were among the non-sophomore students who were having a grand time . .. Jean Ber- tram and LaVerne Burns were dancing when we noticed them . . . also caught glimpses of Mary Lavan and Henry Homes,, Lura Spencer and Jack Kerr. and Anne Mitchell and Bob Daily ... If anyone should ask me who had the best time at the Soph Prom, I thik I would answer "Mr. Irving Codd, '79' who designed the Union . . . he seemed to enjoy the grand march tremendously. .. some of the other people at the dance were Blanche Tobin and Walter Pleiss, who attended the Theta Xi dinner first, Betty Lindegrin and Bob Loge, Florence Rogers and Alex Neill, Betsy Crawford and Marte Collins, and Muriel Hess and Frank South- on ...Incidentally, didn't you think that "Pat" Conger made a perfeci Santa Claus with his Merry Christmas greetings to everyone? The S.A.E. dance was well populated Friday night . .. climbing up the stairs to the dance floor on third we saw Jim Huguet and Carolyn Donovin Bill Wreford and Muriel Hasard, Tom Jensen and Mary Jane Field, and Bob Emmet and Frances Henderson . . . It is a long climb up the wooden hill there, but the dance floor was worth it . . . the boys have remodeled the dorm with fancy indirect lighting and everything . . . Gathered around the fireplace were Bill Small and Bette Meyer, Bob Vandenberg and Vivian Decker and Scotty Watt and June Baron . .. Saw a crowd looking at the scrap book on the table near the:Christmas tree ... that book is really worth looking at . . . there are some wonderful sketches of the S.A.E. houseparties back in the J-Hon days from '90 on .. . Alpha Delt House Party... Wandering down State Street Saturday night the Alpha Delt house at- tracted attenticn. . . getting inside we realized that the party was worth a bit of attention. Janet Miller . .. out from Detroit for the house party . . . was - dancing with LeRoy Haskell. Homer Lathrop was with Louise Walker . . Louise, by the way, is from Muskegon . . . During the evening the whole crowd stood in a huge circle, siging all sorts of songs . . . noticed Dick Oliver leading the singing ... Betty Shaffer was standing next to Dick. Nancy Cassidy and Jim Talcott were singing lustily . . . Dodie Day and Russ Cole were in the circle, too. Alice McCutcheon and Chuck Bowen . .. Jo King and Reed Hartz were conspiring in a corner . . . just what the subject under discussion was is a current problem. Other people about were Dick Hershey . . . Charlotte Rueger . . . Ed D'Aprix and Sue Orr. . . Wally Hook and Marjorie Williams ... Wayne White and Madeliene Appel . .. Kay Shields and Swim-Swim DeLancey . . . Sally Jane Brown and Bill Warner . . . Alice Zing and Charlie Mayne. The Phi Gam's had reserved a long table on the edge of the floor at the League Saturday night and it seemed that their table became a general meeting place for everyone . ... we noticed Jean Rheinfrank and Bill Jewett Betty Spangler and John McFate . . . Marge Merker and Bert Coffee .. . Jane Weisen and Jim ]acCrackei.. . . Dorothy Curtis and Tom Kinkead-.. and Joan Wentz and Bob Elliot. Jean and Betty, being roommates, seemed to be having a wonderful time throwing things at one another . . . everything from napkins to pickles. Playing 'Rabbit'*.. . The party was in full swing at the Alpha Chi house . . . Dorothy Oostdyk and Joe Storkey were already leaving the dance floor to go downstairs for some punch . . . Down there Maxiu.e Blaess with Mic McCollum and Dotty Welch with Tom Breen were making themselves comfortable on the floor ... Martha Thompson and Donald Bronson, Janet Ladd and Frank Howard were also enjoying the refreshments. M. K. Adams, Phil Bower and their dates inveigled several other couples to play "rabbit" with them in the middle of the dance floor . . . and the fun came when those who were caught pre- sented Eve Niles with a head of lettuce to make the game realistic .. . Doris Misner and Willis Plager and Jane Mougey and Jim Hollinshed were much amused at the incident.. . Some of the alumnae were back for the dance ... saw Marge Kress dancing with Jack Wilson . . . and later on Dotty Ander- son dropped in with Wadie Paige . . they came down from Grand Rapids ... Delta Upsilon openod their house Friday to give a super Christmas For- mal. Billie Suffrin :ame out from Detroit to attend the dance with Art Warner. Hope Hartwig and Rodger Longley droppcd in a for a few minutes before going on to the Saph Prom. Very Gray was there with Bill Wilson .. . looking very nice in a white moire formal trimmed with a wide red band around the bottom. Dancing past the candid camera, we noticed Mary Alice Krieger and Harriso.n Church . .. Barbara Talcott and Morris Steere ... Far- ley Ullrich and Allen Andrews ... and Betty Thompson and Bob Johnson. Lawyers'Christmas Party... As usual the Law Club party was perfect. . , it always gives one a strange feeling to walk into the huge dining room in the club on the night of a dance . . . Saturday it looked decidedly like an English Christmas Card with the red and green spotlights on the stained glass windows.,, Bud Prince and Betty Sherk, Graf Sharpe and Harriet Shackleton, looked stunning as usual, Bea DeVine and Kevin Kennedy, and Pete Boder chairman of the dance were all having punch . . and pretty good punch it was, a mixture of orange ice and gingeralc . . . In the lounge dancing were Barbara Heath and John Mead and Stek MacCallum and Harriet Heath, also saw Chuck Moon and Miriam Robertson . . . Ty Carlisle and Marcia Connell were stand- ing in front of the orchestra talking to Ann Timmons, back for the week- end, and Brak Shaw . . . John Moran and Ellen Thompson were doing some very clever steps when the music started again and John Starr and Louise Paine, another last year's student back for the dance, joined them on the floor . Gathered in front of the Christmas tree out in the dining room were June Hora and Jack Bigelow and Hal Klute and Marg Mackintosh . . . Mar- garet Curry and Joe Taylor wandered out there during the intermission, as did Margaret Guest and Dan Cook . . . Some of the others at the dance were Barbara Wykes and Clif Christinson, Helen Ilamp and Sam Stolorow. Whitey Wistert and Mrs. Wistert, Jane Lord and Bob Keck and Marion Yoder and Virginia Wyatt .. k !- 'Planning The Cottage' To Be, Lecture Topic Mrs. John Waite To Give Second Talk In Series On House Decorations Mrs. John Waite is to give the second in the series of lectures on the general subject of interior decorat- ing at 4 p.m. today in the League.

' Prof. Mitchell Will Give Talk For Graduates The Olympic Games will be the subject of a talk to be given by Prof. Elmer D. Mitchell of the phys- ical education department at the luncheon for graduate students which will be held tomorrow in the Russian Tea Room of the League.

The group landed in France July 3 and spent about eight weeks in Europe, visiting France, Germany, Austria, Hugary, Czechoslavakia, Denmark, Sweden and England. Each member of the party studied the phases of European life which were in line with his special interests, some students concentrating in art, others in politics and others in edu- cation. Each received six hours of graduate credit for the trip. About 35 students are expected to attend the meeting, which is another in the weekly series. The meetings will be continued after the Christmas holidays. Dames Will Hear Mrs. Rufus Speak Mrs. Carl Rufus will speak at the general meeting of the Michigan Dames at 8:15 p.m. today in the League.
