Moping On The Mall ByAMeandering Minnie Christmas is practically on its way, and all the University is practically on its respective ways home. Monday afternoon before the League Council meeting got under way completely, a bunch of the upperclass-women were seen jumping rope in the Undergraduate Offices. Barbatra Bradfield had brought a rope to tie up her roommate, one Betsy Baxter, and putting it to good use were c 0 Hope Hartwig, Bobbie Melin, Midge Ayers and Mary Johnson. All the league house presidents were at a meet- ing last Tuesday. Billie Potter, Ruth Steinke, Frieda Kaufman, Clara Marie DeWeese, Helen Lou Mosher, Phyllis Brochman and Lottie Marie Babin- ski were there. Elsie Mueller went on record in favor of the League Sunday night suppers for league houses and Virginia Ritter gave her little bit on the side of faculty teas. The Christmas program of the Modern Dance Club was given in the W.A.B. Tuesday afternoon. It was a very artistically presented program-one that did the art proud. Eileen Lay, Ann Schaeffer and Grace Wilson sang in the trio.

Mary Johnson, W.A.A. presi- dent and Dorothy White were there, and Alberta Royal was passing out programs. Badminton Proving Popular Badminton has become so popular this season that the powers that be are seriously considering making people sign up for a course. Too many people come at once on the open nights at Barbour to make things run smoothly. ,, By the way, the floor is being "done" dur- ing Christmas vacation, and as a result, there will be three, instead of two courts. The swimming club had a five-women, swimming meet in the Union pool yester day afternoon. Barbara Johnson won the back crawl in competition with Helen Wolf. Helen and Jean Hendrian won the tandem from Clara Lenfestey and Sally Corcoran. Sally, in turn, beat Clara and Jean in the breast stroke, and Jean beat . everybody in the 50 yard dash. Seems like it gets rather involved as time goes on. That awful W.A.A. pool again! Without a doubt, there's never a day but that somebody brings it up. Now they are even handing in little poems for the Daily.

Prof. Haber spoke on the present ec- onomic conditions in the United! States. Thousands of industrial layoffs I took place and at the same time the federal government economized, he said. Thus, need has been going up and ways of meeting need have been going dowh. On the one hand, Pro- fessor Haber stated, we want the gov- ernment to spend less, and the bud- get to be balanced. On the other hand, when the government does By KATHERINE MAC IVOR If you would like to make a child'sj Christmas complete, one of the books by Sadye and Anson Lowitz would prove a real delight. Mrs. Lowitz, the author of the stories, graduated from the Univer- sity of Michigan in 1925 and since, has become a prominent writer of books for children. Mr. Lowitz does the extremely clever illustrations, which are of as much enjoyment to the reader as the story itself. The drawings are very gay and are scat- tered abundantly throughout the books. Among the books is "General George the Great," which gives the life of Wash~ngton in a way that brings him to reality. "The Cruise of Mr. Christopher Columbus" and "Mr. Key's Song" make both of these events unforgettable. A spirit of ad- venture characteristic of fairy tales} fills every page and has just the right touch of lightness and sim- plicity. Mrs. Lowitz believes that the adventurous side of historical events should be emphasized and thus en- courage further explorations into history on the part of the young readers. "The Magic Fountain" and "The Pilgrim's Party"Fare equally interest- ing and amusing; for the children seem to take them seriously and Anson Books Spell Christmas Delight For Children Readers rin :- 9 I 1 adults read them for the humourous side. The authors' eight year old daughter, Bobbin, is the editor-in- chief. The profits from the sale of these books will be contributed by the au- thors to the fund for the women's cooperative dormitory.
