time in her life, she does not envy
college students.
"My ;schooldays are the unhap-
piest I remember," she declared,
busily setting up two pictures of the
same man on her dresser. "I quit
when I was fifteen, after being kick-
ed out of every school for not study-
ing. You see, the teachers were
annoyed beause I passed anyway.
Does that happen here?" The Daily
reporter evaded thequestion.
Two night letters to the effect
"This place is divine" were then sent
-one to her mother, Michael
Strange, an authoress and ,John
Barrymore's second wife, and one
to a New York actor. "There's some-
thing alout American men," she
sighed, explaining that after years
of residence in Europe she was qual-
ified to know. The telephone kept
interrupting, and Miss Barrymore
alternately refused and accepted in-
vitations.
Declining to label herself a career
woman, she did admit she would like
to combine her stage career and
marriage, and that she was looking
for her "ideal man." "He'll have to
be someone who is broadminded
about his wife's acting, and prefer-
ably not an actor . . . you just can't
have two egotists under the same
roof."
Miss Barrymore insisted, in her
strongly marked English accent,
that she was as interested in Mich-
igan coeds as in Michigan men, and
expressed the desire to learn about
college life while she is here. In
rehearsal now, "The Winter's Tale,"
in which she will take part, opens
Tuesday, and will run one week.
Mady Christians, the Viennese ac-
tress, has the lead.
Princess uliana And Child Flee War
Petitioning For
Cabaret To End
5 P.M. Friday
Twelve Leading Positions
On Central Committee
Available To Freshmen
Twelve positions on the central
committe of Sophomore Cabaret are)
open for petitioning to all eligible
freshman women through 5 p.m. Fri-
day in the Undergraduate Office of
the League. Chairmen to be appoint-
ed include general chairman, booths,
exhibits, dance, costumes, publicity,
music, tickets, hostesses, decorations,1
finance, and recorder.
Duties for each of the committee
heads will be mainly in an executive
capacity over the work to be done
by each committee. Ideas for the
theme and organization of the Cab-
aret will be accepted either with the
petition or at the time of the inter-
viewing which will take place at a
later date.
In previous years exhibits, a floor
show, dancing and an elaborately
carried out theme have combined to
make the Sophomore Cabaret, usu-
ally presented in the early part of
December, one of the outstanding
class activities. The Sophomore Cab-
aret of 1940 will be the 13th annual
affair of this kind.
The theme of the Cabaret of two
years ago was "Deep Sea Doodles."
At this time the League Ballroom was
decorated to look like "Davy Jones'
Locker" with an imitation of under-
sea life. This past year the idea of
a "Winter Wonderland" was carried
out with the ballroom turned into a
skating rink surrounded by snow
banks and winter scenery.
Each year approximately 150 to
200 women work on the plans for the
Cabaret, plan its theme, and then do
the work in the various committees
of carrying out this theme through-
out the music, decorations, dances,
costumes, exhibits and in the public-
ity accorded the function.
Late Permission Given
For Dramatic Season
Late permission has been extended
to those women attending the pro-
ductions of the present dramatic sea-
son, Doris Merker, '41, head of the
judiciary council of the League, an-
riounced'.
One half hour after the final cur-
tain will be allowed before latenesses
will be charged. However, this does
not apply to freshmen, who will be
required to keep the usual hours dur-
ing the week, with weekends free to
see the performances.
Lantern Night
Will Continue
Old Tradition
By FRANCES AARONSON
Lantern Night services, termed by
a May, 1929, Daily, "The greatest
of all Michigan traditions for wo-
men," has gone through a long meta-
morphosis in form, although the
symbolic significance of junior re- '
placement of graduating seniors has
been kept intact.
In 1929, the ceremony was pre-
ceded by field events at 5 p.m. "A
picnic supper will follow-as soon
as it is dark enough, the march of
classes will begin.-The ceremony is
to be concluded by the singing of
the junior and senior Lantern songs."
That was the year that classes were
distinguished by jackets of differ-
ent colors.
A freshman pageant opened the
festivities of 1931, with the history
of music done in dance form. 1933
brought an added attraction, "Sen-
iors will pass through the wreathed
arches held by juniors;" aesthetic
dancing classes then performed their
version of "The Cycle of the Hours,"
as an entertainment feature.
This year the ceremony is to start
with a parade from the Main Li-
brary to Palmer Field. At one. time
a high school orchestra was hired to
provide the musical background, but
this year the Michigan band will
lead the procession to the tune of
school marching songs.

ment which has been forced to flee before the force of the German
blitzkrieg opened against The Netherlands, Belgium and Luxembourg

Foresters--iall
Will Be Seeie
OfLog Drive
Panel sketches form the nucleus
around which the foresters are plan-
ning decorations for their annual
spring dance to be held from 9 p.m.
to a.m. Friday in the Women's
Athletic Building.
In describing decorations, David
Reid, '40F&C, general chairman, and
Jim Halligan, '40F&C, publicity
chairman, said that there would be
four of these panels, each one de-
picting some stage in logging opera-
tions from the lumberer to the mill.
To create the illusion of a forest, the
panel sketches as well as other ob-
jects featured in the decorations will
be framed with pine branchlets.
The Forestry Club emblem will be
silhouetted against a white back-
ground opposite the main entrance
and the lights and doorway will be
decorated with pine branches.
Scenes portrayed by the four large
panel sketches are the felling and
skidding operations, the actual log
drive, and the final stage at the lum-
ber mill and near the mill pond. Small
panel drawings showing logging tools
and their uses will decorate the wall
leading onto the terrace.
Ray Carey and his Campus Knights
will play for the semi-formal "Log
Drive," to which all the foresters and
their friends are invited.
VoteApproves
Revised Rules
Of P anihellentic
A unanimous vote yesterday at a
meeting of Panhellenic in the League
approved the revision of the Pan-
hellenic constitution and of the new
rushing rules.
After discussions at the individual
houses the delegastps, representing
their various houses, voted for the
following revisions. Appointment of
officers to the executive council will
be made at the same time that
League positions are announced, in
order to avoid conflicts in appoint-
ments. Also, each house shall have
three representatives to Panhellenic
council; the president of the house,
junior rushing officer, and one es-
pecially elected delegate who will
be either a sophomore or a junior.
Under the new Dean's ruling, all
freshmen must live in the dormitory,
although exceptions were made this
year to the by-law that no freshmen
might live in sorority houses.
As was done this fall, a 10 day
rushing period will be continued with
dessert and coffee parties taking the
place of informal dinners. Flowers
and decorations for rushing must not
total more than 25 dollars and enter-
tainment of rushees must be done
only by members of the house. A
restriction of four piece orchestras
has been emphasized for the two for-
mal dinners.
