Polo Coat Is Favorite Petitions Ready 1,500 Men Enroll In League For Orientation Dancing Classes In Six Years 1 iini ities Advisers' Posts Two Types Of Positions Open; Past Experience Helpful To__Applicants, Sophomore and junior women who wish to be orientation advisers next fall may petition for those positions beginning tomorrow and continuing through March 4, Betty Slee, '40, chairman of Judiciary Council, an- nounced yesterday. Petition blanks may be obtained at the Undergraduate Office of the League, and 58 freshman advisers are needed, as well as 32 transfer advis- ers, Miss Slee said. All who petition should state on their blanks which of the two positions they want. There will be no assistant advisers this year, and those who were on the committee last year are especially urged to petition. Eligibility cards for second semester must be present- ed when interviewing begins, which will be shortly after the deadline for petitioning. Judiciary Council is in charge of petitioning and interviewing this year, instead of the special Orienta- tion committee, as has previously been the case. Announcement of those who have been chosen as advisers will be made at the annual installation Banquet. H i- al utn.!a Chorus Girls Wear ..Hoops "Hoops, my dears, we can't prac- tice that step without hoops." And the "bloomer girls" are in again for the 1940 JGP, "Hi-Falutin!" which will be given March 14, 14, 15,and 16. Although the "bloomer girl" dance is the most popular, every nook and cranny of the League is humming with other taps and tunes which will appear in the production. The conglomeration of rehearsal costumes is the most striking feature of the practicing up to date. Shorts and slacks alike have that left-over- from-the-summer-of-1939 look, but colors and styles are not lacking in variety. SAnd where the dances are not un- derway, the cast has managed to find a corner in which to practice. Lack, of properties ;forces the would-be KatherinesCornells to use chairs as trees, beds, and various other pieces of furniture. Major problem of the moment is to teach young ladies to drop their fem- inine habits, such as patting their hair and acquire a few masculine traits of walking and talking in order to give a convincing performance. Finally the cast has been warned to wear old clothes because, it was soon divulged, there are frequent falls by various characters during the pro- duction. -' i i Pupil Of Arthur Murray, dents in summer school are interest Elva P To Asi. in learning new dance steps and wi . scoe, o sI ter classes of the past have be 'Miss Mac 'In Classes very fond of the tango and rhum until last year when variations - I ;ed en ,en ma of Ever popular on college cam- puses is the trim polo coat. Leader in sportswear for some time, it again takes the limelight in spring sports outfits. Its practicability for both campus wear and dress wear makes it almost a necessity in the college woman's wardrobe. By ELIZABETH M. SHAW Nearly 1,500 men students ,to say, nothing of women teachers, have learned to waltz, fox trot, square dance, two-step, jitterbug, tango, and rhumba in the last six years under the direction of Miss Ethel A. McCor- mick, better known as "Miss Mac," the social director of Michigan wo- men. The classes, which started as one of "Miss Mac's" pet projects, are con- ducted in both summer and winter sessions. Both beginning and ad- vanced classes are held each term with about 75 men enrolled in each. "It has even been necessary to turn some men down because there were not enough teachers to be partners of all who wanted to enter," Miss Mc- Cormick said. Dance For Fun Besides learning to dance, the pur- poses of the classes, according to "Miss Mac" are to have fun while dancing and to get acquainted with others on campus. Miss McCormick was connected wth the public schools in Detroit and taught dancing there and in the physical education department in the University prior to starting her danc- ing classes in the League. Contrasting summer anduwinter classes, "Miss Mac" pointed out that square dancing, which is very popu- lar in summer classes, is not re- quested at all in the winter-time. Stu- the fox trot took the spotlight. Interpretation Stressed The idea of the classes, said Miss McCormick .is not to teach certain definite steps to the students, but to give them ideas on how to interpret selections in their own way, to teach them to enjoy music. Students in the classes are taught the steps they want to learn and they may progress as rapidly as they can. Last year Miss McCormick asked Elva Pascoe, who was then doing graduate work at the University, to assist her in the classes. According to Miss Pascoe, she had been one of the women who had spent her time helping to teach the fellows just as the others had and, until that time, had learned all she knew from "Miss Mac". When asked to assist last year she enrolled in the Arthur Murray Dance Studio in Detroit where she has tak- en lessons since that time. _1 'Chapter House Activity Notes i - New Open Series To Sports In House Offer struction Committee Will Meet Plans for coming guest luncheons will be discussed at the next meeting of the 1939 Frosh Project committee at noon tomorrow in the League. Those who wish to order early are urged to call Betty Fariss, '42, to make arrangement. A short business meet- ing will follow the luncheon discus- sion, Miss Fariss said. Though at this time of year chap- ter house notes are comparatively scarce there is a variety of news. Alpha Xi Delta Elaine Wiedman, '42, of Ann Arbor, was pledged by Alpha Xi Delta last Friday. Phi Sigma Kappa In celebration of its 25th year on this campus, Phi Sigma Kappa held a dinner yesterday. Local alumni were invited to attend. Theta Xi National secretary of Theta Xi, Harold P. Davidson, has been spend- ing the past week with the local chap- ter. Kappa Phi Kappa Phi recently celebrated its 1.8th annual alumni reunion at a din- ner-dance which also served as an initiation banquet. Mentor Williams, of the English department, was the principal speaker. The dance was held at the Wolverine, following the dinner. i By SEVI In Retrospect: a week made mem- orable by the fact that George Wash- ington's birthday cut it in twain. Ergo, the great majority of students thank Washington for so considerately being born on Feb. 22-and not on Dec. 26, or some equally undesirable date. But said students might consider "the father of his country" above and beyond the fact that his birthday brings a holiday. Principles of indi- vidual liberty are here and there deemed old-fashioned with "isms" at the height of their popularity, but there are times and times when even the college student-in this little world of his own-might be glad Washington did not have leanings toward dictatorship. No Thursday Classes And then there is the sad case of those people who never have any classes on Thursday, holiday or no.. In Prospect: a week which those concerned hope will be made memor- able by the revival of the Union Opera. Possibilities of this revival are many and varied, from presentation of a song which will gain popularity and fame equal to "When Night Falls Dear" to the discovery of Gilbert and Sullivan talent in authorship or dramatic talent. Russo-Finnish War In the World Around Us : the Rus- sians still finishing the Finnish- or not, depending on whom you want to believe. Then there's still a flutter of ex- pressed opinions about G.W.T.W. ("Gone With the Wind," to those in the know). Such opinions are occa- sioned by another individual witness- ing this cinema, and returning either a convert or not, although the ranks of the former are steadily gaining. The picture does not prove the South won the Civil War, for those who have not seen it and were wondering what brought forth the interest, but it does point towards the development of the movies as an art beyond that which is seen in most films. Hence, enthu- siasm and approbation from a modern generation. Union Coke Bar Will Be Opened At Coffee Hour Ultra-modern is the word for it! Douglas Gould, '41, announces the grand opening on' Tuesday of some- thing new and different on the Michi- gan campus-the Union Coke Bar. Every Tuesday from 4:30 to 5:30 p.m., at the Union coffee hour, Gould will be serving his fellow students at the bar in the role of chief bar tend- er. For those staid,prosaic souls, for whom the coffee hour held inter- est even before the coming of the bar, coffee will still be served, Gould said. Ruth Fitzpatrick, '41, will pour Tuesday. There will be dancing to the latest in records in the small ballroom of the Union. Gould predicts that any number of bridge sessions will be held, with cokes and other refresh- ments served at the tables.
