'Final Fling' To End Semester's
Series Of Afternoon Socials;

PACI, the all-campus T-dance com-
mittee, has recently been reorganized
as a central committee for the trans-
action of all business involving the
four campus organizations it repre-
sents-Panhellenic, Assembly, Con-
gress and Interfraternity Council.
In accordance with its new policy,
PACI will coordinate the work of
"Final Fling," PACI's last T-
dance of this semester, will be held
from 3:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. Thurs-
day in the ballroom of the League.
The theme will be "Bluebook
Blues," and 10 hosts and hostesses,
selected from the PACT organiza-
tions, will officiate at the dance.
the four organizations in regard to
charities, dances, general parleys and
any other projects which these
groups may sponsor.
Jim Bourquin, '42E, has been elect-
ed general chairman of the reorgan-
ized committee. Betty Lyman, '41,
is secretary and William Strain, '43,
is treasurer.
Representatives on the central com-
mittee are Charlotte Thompson, '43,
and Patricia Hadley, '42, from Pan-
hellenic; Jean Krise, '42, and Miss
Lyman from Assembly; Emil Misura,
'43E, and Strain representing Con-
gress; and Ted McClogan, '42, and
Bourquin from Interfraternity Coun-
cil.
The presidents of the several or-
ganizations will be ex-officio officers
of PACI:
The appointments to the PACI
committee will be made in the indi-
vidual organizations. Each Septem-
ber, the organizations will elect one
sophomore, junior or senior to the
committee, and in February they will
each elect another sophomore or
junior. Every committee member
will serve for two semesters.
In order to maintain close coopera-
tion between PACI and its represent-
ed organizations, at each committee
meeting, the members will give a
report on the activities of their
groups. They will also bring sug-
gestions from the individual organi-
zations for improvements or changes.
The PACI members will also bring
reports of the committee's activities
to the Panhellenic, Assembly, Con-
gress and Interfraternity Council
meetings. ,

The Michigan Dames have been in-
vited as special guests of the Club
for the afternoon. Faculty women are
reminded that Wednesday is to be

their friends to the concert.

Assembly Ball
Interv'iewing
Will Be Held
Interviewing for central committee
positions on the annual Assembly
Ball will be held from 3 p.m. to 5
p.m., Wednesday through Friday, in
the Kalamazoo Room of the League,
according to Patricia Walpole, '41,1
president of Assembly.
Representatives of the Assembly
Board who will conduct the inter-
views include the four officers of
Assembly and the president of each
of the four groups making up the
organization. Officers, besides Miss
Walpole, are Elizabeth Lyman, '41,
vice-president, Betty Hall, '41, secre-
tary, and Anne Crowley, '41, treas-
urer.
Presidents of the groups are Jean
Krise, '42, of the Ann Arbor Inde-
pendents; Frances Nevin, '41, of dor-
mitories; Barbara Ann Freidberg,
'43, of League houses; and Sara Jane
Hauke, '42, of Beta Kappa Rho.
Miss Walpole stressed the valve
of interviews. "Even though a per-
son didn't petition for a chairman-
ship," she said, "the experience of
being interviewed will be valuable for
future occasions. Although it was
necessary to petition for committee
jobs, it is not required that one be
interviewed except for committee
chairmanships.
Central committee positions open
for competition are general chairman
(music), assistant general chairman
(merits), co-heads of publicity, tick-
ets and decorations, finance, and
chairman of the patrons and pro-
gram committee. Applicants are re-
quested to bring their eligibility cards
to the interviewing.

The largest liner in America until
the recent building of the "America"
was not quite the palace of luxury
that it had been while taking vaca-
tioners to Europe.
Everyone was subjected to the in-!
conveniences, even Toscanini and
Helena. Rubenstein and former Am-
bassador Kennedy's children. Such
celebrities, who add interest to every
ccean voyage, made other passengers
who had left homes abroad or had
vacations interrupted realize that
there were, literally and figuratively,
all kinds of people in the same boat.
Celebrities Pep Things Up 4
Toscanini went around being very
silent, but a friend of his wife's, Aus-
trian actress Eleanor Mendelson,
gave many interesting and laudatory
accounts of him. Miss Rubenstein was
quite "the life of the party," and
Miss Kennedy started the soliciting
for a fund for the families of sailors
lost at sea. Everyone did his bit
to make an unusual situation a plea-
sant one, and the only solemn mo-
ments were when everyone crowded
into the smoking room at night to
hear the European and American
news broadcasts.
Some passengers were leaving their
homeland to seek refuge in an un-
known country-and they were happy

in realizing their good fortune to es-
I cape the war.
For the cruisers who were on their
way to sunny California. a very plea-
,sant winter trip had come to a quick
end. Parties and entertainment for
them had at least started but for
us no formalities were even begun.
How could the program be elaborate
if many of the people had lost their
filled suit eases and trunks in the
scuffle of trains with no set schedule
and cars with no gasoline that existed
after the war had started? How
could it be elaborate if people were
leaving Euroue probably never to see
it again as they left it?
