PAGE 'I' -- I frwTrm~ Some Tickets To Soph Prom Still Obtainable Sales Exeeds Last Year's Record; Favors Will Be Red Leather Programs Still a few tickets are available for the 1940 Soph Prom, to be held from 10 p.m. to 2 a.m. Friday, Jan. 19, in the Union ballrooms, it was an- nounced yesterday by W i l i a m Schust, '42, chairman of publicity. Tickets will be sold from 1 p.m. on today at the Union de-ak, Schust said. "Red" Norvo and his-band have been engaged to play for the dance. Programs for the annual dance1 will be made of red leather, the soph- omores' traditional color, with the Michigan crest on it. John Kessel, '42, announced. The sale of tickets is far above last year's record at present, Schust said. Decorations for the Prom are unique this year, the main ballroom being done in -the theme of an 18th century drawing room, with panels of 18th century scenes, and the small ballroom being on the style of a 12th century room. Dorm Dietician Assistant Says She Fears Mice But Not Men By MAYA GRUHZIT ' She might be afraid of dead mice tied to her door knob-and what woman would like to find a dead mouse tied to her door knob-but when it comes to facing about 800 men who are always complaining about their food, which is a mighty dangerous position for anyone to be in, the situation doesn't cause her one bit of worry. But that might be because Kath- leen Noyle is the assistant dietician in the new men's dormitories with plenty of work to worry about other than what the men are thinking. A. pretty redhead, as all the men ad- mit, Miss Noyle is the only young. woman to be living at the house. In contrast to Mosher-Jordan. where she worked last year, Miss Noye finds the men's dorms an exciting place to be., Men ,Great Milk Drinkers x The men, she says, are, great milk drinkers at meal times, drinking about three times as much as the women did. Most of the men, in- stead of having only on.e glass of milk with each meal, come back for two or three more. Being the only young woman liv- ing there, she gets quite a ribbing from the residents of the Houses. The food, of course, comes first. She thinks that it is a dormnitory institu- tion to talk about the meals. Several fellows are still thinking about tak- ing her out and showing her where she can get a REAL cup of coffee. Fire Alarms Hard On Nerves And the mouse epioode can't be omitted. She admits that the jok- ers got their money's worth out of that; but then she changed the sub- ject . Noise.is another feature of which ,he men's dorm has plenty. Before -he disconnected the fire alarm bell, ,h ch rings in her room, it wasn't inusual for th alarm to gp off three or four times a night. It's hard on nth the nerves and ears; .and that's .vhat the men thought, too. But aside from Such little things, Miss Noyle finds making up the. meal for the men and, listening to their complaints an interesting job. But that might be because she finds making up meals interesting anyway.

Children weldomed with yells and hurrahs the announcement that rules forbade tap dancing or waltz clog- ging to mar the surface of the newly laid floor. Scout boots and galooshes were parked along side of patent leather pumps and junior high ox- fords all along the corridor of the second floor. "I'd much prefer to go barefoot remarked one young lad.

YES, WE DID HAVE A NICE VACATION, thank you. . No, we didn't want to come back to school (do you think we're nuts?) . . . Yes, we know exams come in less than three weeks, so go 'way and stop bothering us. Us, personally, we decided our vacation (which seemed so super at the time) must have been a pretty cold and bleak affair compared with the-tales which have come in from the sunny (to coin a cliche) South. The Florida tans which Marty Rudman and Ray Engleman are currently sporting make us feel like sissies. Bob Luery lent his moral support to the swimming team, and the postcards which we got from David Zeitlin (who also took a few days off to go to Cuba-business, he says) managed to reach us on the coldest day of the year. If what these lads say about Dixie is the real thing, the local girls might just as well start studying for the Phi Bete key. Stan Botwinik took his vacation with snow. ... skiing upin Maine has Florida all beat, according to him. Dick Waterman spent Noo Year's Eve with a Cleveland bubble named Evy, and Peg Seabright brightened up Sha- ron, Pa., with her presence when she dropped over for a while to play with- Emmet Whitehead. Jeff Hall and Don Canham started training early by hurdling their way through Chicago traffic, and high-jumping over night club tables. 'F "+' :7) CROY5?(-.?4!!7i.ME4 A " > v.v va~ $ ~ 2 f. .i;;rr N 'I, c r It took us a a little while to sleep the whole thing off and discipline. our:- selves not to break out into coos and gurgles every time we heard of another friend going off the deep end, but by Fri- day night we decided that it was high time to give up all the romanticizing and to take care of our own stolid social life. Lid-lifting it at the Union we bumped into Dirk Pletcher and Phyllis Lovejoy, Jack Callouette and a Wellesley freshman, Marge Green with Bill Leeder, and Walt Roberts trailing Georgiana Clark. So much frivolity shamed us into stifling our yawns (not the company, just the hour-of course!) and stretching our smiles to fit our long after- vacation pusses. . . Decked out in our best leer, we grinned "Hello".at numer- ous people (also at the Lid-Lifter). Among those who really didn't care whether we favored them with a greeting were Jim Kehoe and Bea Snoke; Dick Scherling and Betty Bailie, Don Crumbaker and Ida Bonette, and Jack Harwood and Dot Kimball. Saturday night's star fling was "Capricorn Caper," a very all right dance given by .the Dormitory Board of Assembly. With a short prayer of thanks for Leap Year and its customs, we dragged our favorite man over to the League and introduced him to such notables as Victoria Gellatly and Jim Harper, Betty Lou Witters f and Jack Barry, June De Cordova, who was looking pretty starry-eyed herself at Karl Ziehe. Jean Tenofsky seemed to prefer Goshen, Indiana's Ed Schumann to the local talent, but from our seats it looked as though Betty Altman was perfectly satisfied with Milton Katz, as was Betty Lloyd with Kenneth Simpson. Ruth Coler and Barney Beasly claim that the real reason we won the basketball game was because of their cheering, but Bobby Trosper and John Hildinger say they were much louder. We almost got a puck in. our eye at the hockey game trying to see who Screamer Hynes was with, but we were foiled. Back at the Union (this is getting to be a habit) we tangled glances with Ted Spangler, who was doing same with Betty Fariss ... spotted Dick Mansfield and Eleanor Williams, and Stewart Peck and Barbara Fisher. Buzzed over to the Pi Phi formal long enough to get the low-down on the 1940 evening gowns, to say nothing of Frances Griffin and Lynn Doctor, Barbara Foote and Jeff Pace, and Ruth Gram and Murray Markland. b9 x- a Snu Pajamas for 9 Lounging and Sleeping rs .95 .i s LANNEL soft as a kitten s ear, cut with surprising dash into pajamas . . . the tops of which you'll probably find your- self wearing with odd skirts ,on especially blustery days.
