VY, JAN. 27, 1939 THE MICHIGAN DAILY D I Athletic Ecents ~ New W.A.A. Sport Season To Include J- lop To Have Sky Blue Motif In Decorations End Panels To Be Draped in Red Velvet Trimmed With Metallic Material Silver glitter stars in a center pan- nel of blue will give a sky effect to the decorations planned for the 1939 J-Hop according to Wes Lane, '40 and Don Nixon, '40, co-chairmen of dec- orations. The ceiling of the room will have large strips of medium blue cloth and light tan cloth running the length of the Intramural Building. There will be a six foot valance of blue material connecting the ceiling with each booth, and on each valance fraternity insignias will be placed to designate the various booths. PaInels To Have Red Velvet The focal points in tnis year's scheme of decorations are centered at each end of the room and on the two band stands, Lane said. The end panels will be draped in' a dark red velour trimmed with metallic drapes. It is planned to throw spot lights on the cloth so that the figures will be shown in relief at each end of the room.I The booths will be draped with bur- gundy sateen trimmed in gold to meet the columjns. The booths at the west end for the independent groups will be furnished with red chrome chairs and daenports. , Modernistic Lighting Effect The columns around the room, sep- arating the booths, will be semi-cir- cular and. will be arranged to pro- duce a subdued lighting effect, in keeping with the metropolitan air of the decorations. The top of the col- umn will be of a modernistic design to blend with the valance, Lane said. For the first time in its history, the J-Hop committee has provided for an attached seat around the base of each column, the chairman of the decoration committee announced. In this manner it will be possible to give additional seating facilities for those attending the dance. The band stands will be directly op- posite each other on each side of the room and will be draped with red ve- lours background. The base of the bandstands will be surrounded with stiff metallic material with a scal- loped edge. RecreationIs Now Stressed For All Nurses By ESTHER OSSER Social life for the student nurses at Couzens Hall, which, with its 285 single sleeping rooms, lounges and li- brary, kitchenette and sun parlors, makes one of the most modern and complete nurses' residences in the country today, is of necessity a little fuller in some respects than is that of other dormitories on the campus. As life begins at 6:50 in the morn- ing and continues through the day until about 7 p.m. for the majority of student, it is easy to see why they participate so little in ordinary ex- tra-curricular activities. When we add to this the fact that most study- ing must be done between 7 p.m. and 10 p.m., with lights out at 10:30, we find a practical reason for the at- tempts to increase the social life with- in the Hall itself. Activities Are Regulated The Student Cooperative Govern- ment Association, to which every stu- dent belongs, the Executive Commit- tee of this organization, and a Fac- ulty Advisory Committee regulate, in a general way, all undergraduate ac- tivities that are not academic in na- ture. The Outdoor Club provides, for those who are fond of this form of receration, such activities as hiking, breakfasts at the Island, camp-fire hours, canoeing and tennis. F The school sponsors three outside dances a year, two of which are for- mal and are held at the League, and one of the informal type, given at the Women's Athletic Building. One or two house dances are also included each year. Edit Two Publications Two publications, Scalpel, an an- nual, and TPR, a monthly magazine, are edited by students who are in- terested in this type of activity. A Dramatic Club, with membership open to all residents, meets for the purpose of reading and discussing plays and their authors, as well as the art of stage management. The Club's one-act plays are a popular feature on many of the school's en- tertainment programs. In such ways does the school, through the medium of social ac- tivities, try to provide a carefully planned recreational program which will meet the extra-curricular needs of the undergraduate nurse.
