WvAAntics By SHAiP If you're tall and rarely have the opportunity to look down on your friends (or enemies) then you'll appreciate the great joy and exhilaration experienced by Jean Johnson (five feeet ten) when at the State Conference of Athletic Federation of College Women, held in Kalamazoo last week-end she found five female Paul Bunyan-sized delegates from Wayne University. They were really tall, and may it be said that it was the first time that Jean had to look up to anybody! * * * * Connie Hammett, victor in the women's singles tennis tournament, is reported to have achieved her victory with a steady game, excellent net game and beautiful serve . . . honest! we're not prejudiced. Opponent Jane Ed- monds seemed to show great strength several times when she put over soilie swift passing shots when Connie was at the net, but she didn't quite hit her stride.

Al- pha Xi Delta beat Newberry, 32-26, and Jordan was defeated by Gamma Phi Beta, 45-28. * * * * The first outdoor season being fast completed and the first indoor season about to set in, woman athletes are torn between two fires, finishing their volleyball tourney and practicing for the inter-house basketball tournament which will begin next week. On occasion, basketball is even practiced with a volleyball, for lack of keys to the cupboard or somep'un. To start off the season, house athletic managers will meet at 4:30 p.m. Monday at the W.A.B. to have explained to them the where, how and why of the new activities for the season, which will open Tuesday. Zoning of league houses was done in the middle of last season, so that girls now have an organized group behind them when they go out to play. The houses are grouped as to proximity so that inter-house communication is made easier. 1 girl. When all of a sudden arose such a sound, they jumped from theirf beds to see what was the matter." Imagine the reaction when 400 col- lege girls received phone calls at identically the same time. That is exactly what happened to the resi- dents of Stockwell Hall. Rudely awakened out of her customary beauty sleep, each girl rushed to the nearest phone, only to encounter every other girl in the corridor doing the same thing. They Wouldn't Give Up Fights and arguments followed as each girl claimed that the other was mistaken as to whose buzzer had buzzed. Everyone tried to call the main desk to prove that her buzzer had sounded. One girl who was actu- ally trying to talk to someone gave up competing with what she called "1,000 voices in the ether." At the main switchboard were two people enjoying the whole thing im- mensely, the house janitor and the switchboard operator,'Gloria Nishon. They had been trying to fi* a minor trouble in the board and had inad- vertantly pulled the general alarm. The board almost immediately ex- ploded with answ'ering buzzes from every room in the dorm. One would- n't think girls were as anxious as all that for phone calls! West Quad To Hold Annual Tea Dance West Quadrangle will hold their third annual Thanksgiving tea-dance from 3:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. Thurs- day. Mrs. Charles H. Peak, Mrs. Lura D. Niles, Mrs. Virginia Harryman, and Mrs. E. K. Herdman are directing the plans for the dance which will include an orchestra, refreshments, and appropriate decorations.
