The Primrose Tath
It would seem that a storm was practically upon us ... The lawyers and
the med students have put up the shutters and retired to their respective
castles to wrestle with the powers of darkness and ignorance ... a few lone
architects and engineers may be found lurking guiltily in on the highways
and by-ways of the Primrose Path. .. But the lit student, the victim of much
razzing from his professional brothers on the subject of studies, is left prac-
tically alone to carry the torch . . . and he does so with the greatest of ease,
judging from reports which have seeped in concerning the activities of the
past week-end ...
The Betas Walk Home ...
It is quite possible that certain, usually sweet-tempered young things will
be bearing a decided grudge against all and sundry members of the species
equinus for some time to come ... It has been rumored about that the
Beta sleighing party turned into a long walk Friday night . .. John Seeley,
instigator of the affair, has been going about with a hunted look on his
habitually happy countenance ever since . .. Apparently the company was
too much for the horses ... They couldn't take it ... About a mile from
home they gave up and everyone had to become democratic and walk
the rest of the way with them . . . Jo Wilcox acted as go between for
John and the rest of the party who felt that kindness to dumb animals pre-
vented them from picking on the horses. . . Marion Donaldson and Fred Tal-
cott, Mary Jane Frye and Walter Harkins, Mary Helen Hurley and Stutz
Johnson, Betsy Baxter and Carl Macy . . . were among the involuntary
athletes . . . Betty Anne. Beebe claims she walked all the way, but rumors
have it that she and Lorenzo Jolly were seen putting one over on the horses
by taking a rest off and on, mostly on . . . The girls will be justified in
omitting morning exercises for at least two weeks ...
The Delts had their final fling Friday night at a very super dance --.
But they had some competition from the University broadcast . .. Patriotic
listeners filled the card room and glued attentive ears to the strains of the
Yellow and Blue not to mention "The Night is Young" ... Jean Smith and
Bud Consor .. . Betty Gatward and Frank Dannemiller . . . Margaret Dodds
and Stuart Forbes . . . Hattibel Grow and Frank Aikens were among the
principal rooters...
Local Talent On The Air ...
Glade Allen and Erle Whetsell ... Jane Mougey and Jim Hollinshead ...
Mary Alice Krieger and Lou Belden . . . Dorothy Shipman and Steve Fili-'
piak kept the orchestra company,... But that wasn't all ... At intermission
the brothers took the opportunity to air some of the local talent . . . Kim
Belden got the microphone under control and acted as master of cere-
monies for Gus Miller who gave a heartfelt rendition of "The Martins and
the Coys" with much Southern accent . . . Then Fritz Buchanan who gave
"Sweet Sue" a good showing on his sax . . . And we might pause here to
say that the boy has got a past, present and future with that sax of his ...
Virginia Letts and Jack Van Duesen, Jane Hardy and Murray Campbell
..Janet Fullenweider and Carl Wheeler, Kay MacIvor and Fred Kintzer
appeared to be enjoying the entertainment ...
The, crowd automatically migrated to the Parrot afterwards where the
waiters could be heard above the din speaking in that lingo peculiar to
Parrot waiters . . . "Six, s-i-x hamburgers with a sweet r-o-1-1- Toast with
butter on side . . . Chop-chop." .. .
Hill Auditorium proved to be a Mecca for a good part of the student body
on the same night ... Among the curious who wanted to see Michigan life
dramatized in Mr. Miller's skits were Becky Bursley and Don Barnes, Marion
Baxter and Chuck Coe ... June Laing and Roy Fraser ... Elizabeth Titus
and Bob Chambliss . .. Helen Higgins and John Jordan ... Most of the "Five
Thousand" had been dancing to the strains of Charlie Zwick's band at
the League beforehand, it seemed . . . Nicky Nack and Ted Allen were doing
justice to the music . . . Betty Haas and Phil Newman . .. Pauly Powers and
Joe Osborne.. . Edith Cleaver and John Cummiskey seemed to have cast all
worries aside with great abandon . . . Jane Nussbaum and Bill Griffiths ...
Georgianna Davis and Jim Kingsley ... Betsy Brown and Russ Strickland
were all taking time out from the weekly grind ...
'Yeomen Of The Guard' Proves Popular...
The other half were kicking up their heels ... egged on by Bob Steinle's
rhythm in the Rainbow Room at the Union . . . Jean Lillie and Bud Kaye
.. .Mary Lou Willoughby and John Mann were seen drifting in and out
among the changing lights . . . Marian Donaldson and Ladd McKay . .
Betty Bird and Fred Manning seemed to be enjoying each other's company at
one of the tables . . . Jane Reitter and Jack Payton . . . Betty Hill and Bob
Harris ... Florence Brotherton and Bob Griffin ... Mae Shoede and Robert
Banks were among the dancers ... Ruth Wood and Miles Trumble were do-
ing some specialty numbers for their own enjoyment in and around the
other couples . . . Ed Wells, who had brought Priscilla Smith, made it a red
letter day in his life by indulging in a Boston Cooler for the first time ...
And he comes from Grand Rapids too .. .
'"The Yeomen of the Guard" offered a means of lightening up that dismal
pre-exam atmosphere during its four day run last week . . . The antics of
Marguerite Creighton and Fred Shaffmaster not to mention the excellent
singing and acting of all the members of the cast attracted full houses ...
Patty Haff and Casey Carter were at one of the performances and Dorothy
Utley who came out for the week-end attended with Ted Neunan.. . Mary
Lou Miller and Bethel Kelly . . . sought relaxation in sports at the basketball
game ...
And with this exciting account of the week's doings we shroud the
Primrose Path in a very thick, very black curtain . . . But cheer up . . . not
forever we hope . . . unless mid-years succeed in doing away with the entire
student body . . . and never let it be said of a Michigan student that he or
she as the case may be, couldn't take it . . . So we make way for the god of
knowledge with a sympathetic "Pax Vobiscum" for all fellow sufferers .. .

J-Hop House Parties To Feature
Sophistication In Formal Attire
By JENNY PETERSEN
However pleasant it is to gazel
dreamily out of the windows in the
library or Angell Hall speculating
happily about J-Hop and clothes for
the house party, it won't do to in-
dulge in too much of such reverie.
With the disagreeable two-week
period that intervenes between today
and J-Hop approacling, a few min-
utes of judicious planning now for
that house party wardrobe may spare
a last minute flurry.
Formal Is Important
First of all in your planning, de-
cide what the bigger items in your
wardrobe will be. Heading the list,
of course, is the formal, the most
elegant thing you can find in your,
present collection or can discover in
Ann Arbor shops. The "sky's the
limit" here, for your dress and bel
as elaborate or as sophisticated as
you wish, provided though, that it is
becoming. A warm wrap is a neces-
I sity, too, for you wouldn't want to
endure a cold the rest of the week-
end. You may also need another
formal if there is a house dance Sat-
urday night.
Then there are two short afternoon
dresses, one for Saturday anrd perhaps
a more dressy one for Sunday dinner.
You might want the second dress for
church, too, if you decide to go.
Snow Togs Problem
The need for snow togs, skis and
similar paraphernalia depends on
whether this snow stays. You must
also take into consideration the plans
of the fraternity, for the members.
may have decided on a theatre party,
rather than on outdoor sports. Then,
too, maybe you can't ski or skate.
A dressing gown, accesories, and
your cosmetics wind up the list of
house-party necessities. It would be
most wise indeed to itemize littleE
things such as hair ornaments, pins
and gloves for they have a tendency
to be mislaid at the last frantic min-
ute, and there won't be any obliging
roommate to supply deficiencies. j
Planning to keep cosmetics in a
separate compartment away from the
rest of your things shows foresight,
too, for powder has a nasty habit of
spilling on dark materials and the
tops of nail polish bottles often come
off.
Packing clothes between layers of
tissue paper is a sign of the exper-
ienced traveler and it keeps clothes
fresher. If your formal is of the per-
ishable type that absolutely will not
pack, you might carry it in a clean-
er's or garment bag, instead of cram-
ming it into a suitcase.
All this sounds like a lot of petty
detail, but you will enjoy the most
important event of the year more if
your clothes are all in perfect condi-
tion and you have everything where
you want it.
