in the ballroom of the League.

with heads, faces, curls, and bows,
and may be purchased by the women
at the dance or from, 2 p.m. to 5:30

Leroy Smith and his orchestra,
heard previously in Ann Arbor at
the Miami Triad dance last year, will
play for Pay-Off. The band has also
appeared at several League dances
in former years.
Tickets for the dance may still be
procured from members of Mortar-
board or from 2 p.m. to 5:30 p.m.
today at a special desk in the lobby
of the League, or during the dance
at the League desk. They are priced

President and Mrs. Ruthven head
the list of patrons for this, the fourth
consecutive Pay-Off dance.
Sponsored By Mortarboard
Pay-Off, sponsored by the senior
women's honor society, traditionally.
occurs the week-end after J-Hop.
Originally intended as a dance to
which women might invite their J-
Hop dates, the affair now has become
one with which women may repay
any of their dates of the past semes-
ter.
Although sweaters and skirts are.
not obligatory, the customary dress
for this dance is extremely informal.
Eligibility Cards Due
For Merit System
Eligibility cards for all women ex-
pecting to do any work under the
merit system of the League must be
signed within the three week period
beginning next Monday, Barbara
Dittman, '41, chairman of the com-
mittee has announced. Although
work will not begin until later in
the semester, she said, cards must
be signed between 3 p.m. and 5 p.m.
any day during the prescribed period.
As each card is signed, the owner's
name will be added to an eligibility
,list to be filed in the office of the
Dean of Women. Chairmen of
League committees, dance, and pro-
ject committees must check the
names of the committeemen from
this list.

honor societies, get together to give
a dance, the result is "Wynx," which
will be held from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m.
Friday, February 28, in the large
ballroom of the Union.
"Wynx" is patterned after the reg-
ular week-end dances in the Union in
that it is an informal affair and ev-
eryone may attend. Extra fun enters
into the pattern with the introduction
of doorprizes and other awards.
Some of the prizes to be given are
a title to two steak dinners, a corsage,
tickets to leading dances and produc-
tions on campus, and other amusing
gifts.

Genie Of The Bright Green Hair
Port rays Dual Role In 'Aladdin'

22 and 23 head size

DANA RICHARDSON
Michigan Theatre Bldg.
523 East Liberty St.

By FRANCES AARONSON
"We're nothing unusual in our own
home Fifth Dimension," said A1-
adin's Genie 'todaybas he explained
hat the only problem is a social
-ne-acute because of the rave pre-
judice. "We are not to be confused
with the Hy-genies," he emphasized.)
The Genie with the bright red
hair, heir to the ring, and the Genie
with the bright green hair, heir to
.he lamp, have constant arguments
-bout the relative merits of their re-
spective color schemes. William Mills,
'Grad, who plays bothi the parts in
-he Children's Theatre musical "Al-
!adin," which opens today at 3:30a
o.m. at the Lydia Mendelssohn The-
.tre, expressed his extreme preference
for the green.
Green Hair Is Fancy
"Green hair is much more fancy,
and so much more suave, he declared.
The Genies argue, too, about their
parents, who were first cousins. It
hasn't been decided yet who was the
more magically powerful of the two.
Both Genies carry Alladin and his
friends through an exciting round of
musical adventure in the next play.
"The most difficult stunt of all,"
comented Genie the Red, "was in
carrying the Princess' castle from
persia to Africa. Africano, the villain,
cursed me for losing the whole first
floor on the way over; my only re-
gret is that he was on the second."
Neither Genie expressed a prefer-

ence for Africano. Greenie said, "I
dislike mostly his horribly crude table
manners. He is the most unsubtle
creature in the story." Africano was
not around to carry on the debate;
he expects to tell his tale at the,
theatre.
Genies Have Harems
"Back in Fifth Dimension we have
a complete population of Genie's,,
including the all important Persian
harems," the Genies said in unison.
Both declared that they would rather
stay in Dimension than be forced to,
serve Africano again.
Red and Green, the Genies will both
be on the Lydia Mendelssohn stage
today and tomorrow in Richard Mc-
Kelvey's slightly musical version of
the children's favorite tale, from the
Arabian Nights. Two performances
will be given tomorrow, at 1:30 p.m.
and again at 3:30.I
Badminton Courts Open
The badminton courts in Barbour
Gymnasium are open for mixed play
from 7:30 p.m. to 9 p.m. on Monday
and Friday.
