Suit Classics Shown For Campus

Simple suits like those pictured are being seen left and right on
campus this spring. On the left is a light weight wool cut on fitted
lines. And on the right is a sheer wool with a classic car digan
front. Both suits are worn either with contrasting or dyed-to-match
wool blouses or a short sleeved sweater if preferred. They are shown
in all the new pastel shades which are so popular now.

JGP PositionsI
To Be Filled
By Interview,
Conferences To Be Held
From 3 P.M. To 5 P.M.
Tuesday Through Friday
Interviewing for positions on the
central committee for the 1941 JGP
will take place from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m.
Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and
Friday as announced by Doris Mer-
ker, '41, chairman of Judiciary
Council.
No woman who has not turned in
a petition will be eligible for a posi-
ticn on this committee, Miss Merker
stated. She urgently requested that
women wishing to be interviewed
come early in the week to avoid the
last minute rush. Women will sign
up in line to be interviewed and
those coming late in the week may
not get the opportunity of being
interviewed.
Positions open include general
chairman, chairman of patrons tic-
kets, publicity, finance and pro-
grams. Others are chairman of the
makeup committee, bookholder, and
recorder whose duty it is to check
eligibility, attendance and health
service cards and whether each wo-
man participating has paid her class
dues.
The chairmanships of the follow-
ing committees will also be appoint-
ed by Judiciary Council following
this week's interviewing. They are
chairmen of properties, dance, mu-
sic, costumes, ushers and scenery
committees.
Four positions for the production
not on the central committee which
are available to eligible sophomores
are bookholder recorder, assistant
dance chairman, and assistant cos-
tume chairman.
Beauty Exercises
Taken With Music
Alleviate Boredom
Two by two they steal softly down
the stairs at 10:30 when house doors
are closed. What for? There are
symphony and swing records in the
living room to alleviate the boredom
of before-bed beauty exercises.
Yes, it seems to be the new mode
to combine the aesthetic qualities of
dance with the beautifying properties
of bending and twisting. Beethoven's
fifth is a good rhythm for "run run
run leap," while Tschaikowsky's
Sixth is apropos for "bend two, up
two."
Breathing exercises go best to sym-
phony orchestras too, while mock bi-
cycling in the air is exhilerating when
done to the swing rhythm of "In the
Mood." Balanced exercises, such as
in sliding down the wall eight beats
for posture and back up again for
eight more beats of posture fit in
very well with most of Haydn's sym-
phonies. Rhumba rhythms add
"oomph" to leg and arm swinging
systems.
To the second movement of Bee-
thoven's seventh goes the following
athletic accomplishment: partners
sitting on the floor take turns pull-
ing each other up slowly so that one
is lying down and the other is stand-
ing on one foot. "The slower the
better" is the thesis of this exercise,
so that one variation of the main
theme to one "pull-up" is the proper
timing.

Imualitiles
Spring, says the calendar; and we
send home for our roller skates and
last year's bathing suit. Spring, says
the newspaper; and we buy a pink
dress and a lace blouse. Spring, he
says: and a young man's fancy light-
ly . yes, spring!

lible, thad's whad. How'd we know

boddy dell us aboud buying an um-
brella?
A real umbrella, too: not one of
Qhese Christmas-gift or what-to-give-
my-girl-for-her-birthday umbrellas.
About a foot long, it resembles an
overgrown, inflated sausage which
fell into a bottle of plaid or vari-
colored ink, and designed, we're sure,
as merely another gadget to fool the
public.
Comes A Rain Storm

4

That is, you see a rain storm ap-
proaching, and it fools you. By the
time you have it.opened, it's stopped
raining, your dress has shrunk three
inches, your eyebrows have dissolved,
your hair has resigned itself to fate;
and now it's your turn to fool your
public.
Pull the knob and you have the
handle with a very wrinkled Chinese
pagoda, or a spring hat which has
gone astray. attached to the other
end. "Shake gently," the directions
advise. You shake gently. Nothing
happens. You shake harder. And
vigorously. Then dispense with that
advice; nothing will probably happen
anyway.
"Press button"; and if you can lo-
cate the button, and if it works-
press button. This action releases the
upper half of the spokes. In a stiff
wind, they fly up, and instead of a
reliable article for keeping the rain
off, you have a pancake of a parasol
with the bottom half of the spokes
waving grotesquely in defiance of all
laws of gravity.
'Fool The Public'
But assuming that the wind was
not blowing, you carefully flatten the
sections of the spokes, gently push the
button and press each spoke until it
clicks. But what you didn't realize
is that they have another plank in
their "fool the public" platform. As
you press down one spoke, the one
on the other side pops up. Quite a
successful platform, don't you think?
Eventually, by the third time
around the umbrella, you have what
your grandmother could have had by
just going to the stand in the hall. An
umbrella!
But after all, this wasn't necessary.
Why carry an umbrella? You all
know it doesn't rain in Ann Arbor

Triangle Holds Hard

Triangle held a hard times party
last night ro celebrate the birthday
of Adolph Hitler. The house was be-
decked with paintings of Hitler and
swastikas, while the radio furnished
the music for the guests to dance. As
an added attraction, games were play-
ed. These were a combination of Kay
Kyser's "Kollege of Musical Knowl-

Questions were asked concerning Hit-
ler's favorite songs and pastimes.
Chaperons for the dance were Profes-
