Pean Alice Lloyd was the main
speaker of the evening and presented
to University women a program
through which they may aid their
country in its defense work. The
speech reviewed the influences that
past wars have had in furthering the
emancipation of women through the
activities which' national emergen-
cie have forced upon them. However,
Miss Lloyd stressed the fact that this
Of Acquaintance
Bureau Begins
If you're still not "acquainted"
around here, drop around between 3
p~m. and 5 p.m. today at the Unionj
and be one of the first to sign up.
The Acquaintance Bureau--that
proposal you've heard so much about
and never had the chance to try-is
officially opening this afternoon,
Elaine Richert, '43, and Bob Templin,
'43, announced. Henceforth, the bur-
eau will be open from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m.
every Tuesday at the Union and every '
Thursday at the League and will con-
tinue to function throughout the aca-
demic year.
The Acquaintance Bureau was or-
ganized for the sole benefit of fresh-
man men and won n who have found
it difficult to become acquainted on
this campus. Dates are provided for
everything from a simple, noncom-
mittal coke date to the most expensive
J-Hop date, inclusive of fraternity
and sorority and class dances.
The process of signing up is very
simple--nothing at all personal re-:
quired for the files. You are asked to
give your name, address, height, color,
and preference as to type of date de-
sired. In the past, the co-chairmen
said, the bureau has proven to be a
great success and the number of
freshmen signing up most satisfac-
tory.

Stay Healthy
University women may do their
part by maintaining healthy bodies
and healthy minds, stated the dean of
women, "and by filling the demand
for trained workers such as nurses
and dieticians, since they will play a
definite part in the present emer-
gency and in post-war reconstruc-
tion."
Miss Lloyd also pointed out that
today's emergency is a challenge to
the present generation of educated
men and women to help rebuild so-
ciety. These men and wonen must
stop regarding themselves as the "lost
generation" and must have faith,
courage and compassion to do their
duty in this crisis.

is, every song the committee could
think of that has the word "eyes" in
it somewhere. This makes quite a
lengthy list, including such old fa-
vorites as "Green Eyes," "Smoke Gets.
In Your Eyes," "I've Got My Eyes
On You," "You're the Apple Of My
Eye," and "Stars In My Eyes."
Has Had Experience
This is the first Daily style show
for which Hardy's band has played,
but he provided the musical element
for last year's Union style show. Con-
tinuous music that will fit in with
the typeof clothing being displayed
at the moment is the problem in-
volved in arranging the rhythmic
backgroupd to which the mannequins
must move, Hardy explained.
Outstanding feature of the pro-
gram Hardy hasarranged for the
fashion show will be the playing of
a new song from the forthcoming
tinion Opera, of which Hardy is the
music chairman. Active in Mimes,
Hardy wrote most of the songs in
last year's Opera, and also contrib-
uted lyrics for the 1941 Junior .Girls
Play.
Old Hit Revived
"A Dream and I," by Hardy and
Charles Bowers, '41, which was the
hit of "Take A Number," will also
be played by the band. This song
was played by Glenn Miller at Senior
Ball in .June and an arrangement of
it has been written for inclusion in
the repertory of Miller's orchestra.
Hardy said we could call him con-
ceited, but since he admits no great
consuming ambitions we are rather
inclined to disagree with him. He
likes to write songs and to play the
piano but he can't decide which he
prefers. "It doesn't really matter
what my aspirations are-to be a
songwriter or to' lead a band-be-
cause the draft will decide for me
before long," Hardy admitted philo-
sophically.
Meeting To Be Held
The Publicity Committee for
Sophomore Cabaret will hold an
important meeting at 5 p.m. to-
day in the League, Elizabeth Bun-
nell, '43, chairman, announced.
blades in a comradely manner.
Four of the bridge fiend group will be sitting in the first or second booth
where they won't miss an item of anything that happens up front, snarling
at each other and kicking viciously at each other's
ankles when faux pas' are pulled. They are so unpopular
with each other that they can't keep the game intact
for more than about fifteen minutes at a stretch and
from time to time will go up the immemorial yowl of the
bridge maniac, "Does anyone wanna be a fourth?"
The Smooth Boys
Up front, being carefully suave and balancing on the tables near the door
are the smoothies, or rather, the "smoothies." These are the fraternity boys,
mostly of one house who, it has been secretly announced, are planning to
establish a chapter room back in the kitchen. They can be recognized by a
severe nervous tic-a sudden jerking of the head backward at fifteen-second
intervals. The tic is the result of constant dodging of each other's swinging
watch chains.
Prominent among-the smooth or "high-pants" boys is the sophistocate
who "hates that Joe College stuff. Boy, you wouldn't catch me dead in a
joint with college atmopbere!" And right up there fighting for recognition,
too, are the old athletic hanger-oner and booth-to-booth kids.
Our particular favorites, however, are the Juke-Box Boys. These are
the familiar faces who wait until someone else puts a nickel in, rush to the
box and practically beat their heads against the side seeing what number is
being played, and then sidle up to a booth where they can start some swing
talk and take over the authoritative conversational baton,
Getting back to the social whirl (ugh, that phrase!) we understand that
the Dekes gave a little something in the way of a pledge formal last weekend.
They say it was a really solid affair, and we believe them. After all, consider
where the house is; you'd have to give a darn good party if you wanted to
convince a girl to go half-way to Ypsi just to do some dancing. Listed on the
roll for the evening were Mary Hayden and Ken Troy, Nancy Gould and
Chappie White, Dottie Bloxom.and Bill Doolittle, Peg Wetherald and Gor-
don Critchell and Mudge Killins and Bob Davis.
