Follow- ing her lead, plain, embroidered, nail- studded or in more elaborate form complete with snood, the calot or pill-box caps many of the feminine heads of the country. Its head-hugging simplicity em- phasizes the shape of the head, shows off well-groomed hair, and accents your best features. In short, it's the kind of a hat that you'll enjoy wear- ing when you're tempted to go hatless and know you really shouldn't. WAA Sponsors Training Course In Leadership "Lead the Lint Behind the Line" is the motto of the extra-eurricular leadership training course sponsored by WAA which will meet at 4:15 p.m. Monday in the Dance Studio of Bar- bour Gymnasium. Under the direction of Gertrude Inwood, '43, the group will train Uni- Versity women for community leader- ship in singing, leading children's games, telling stories, and work in crafts. The women will be given prac- ticals experience here on campus in working with children; besides this course instruction. ."One way of helping in the national! }mergency," Miss Inwood said, "is to keep physically fit and to lead in any and all situations in which ole is called upon to aid." As part of the program, the group will emphasize physical fitness and point out any remedial defects to the women, such as defective teeth. Pointers will also be givep on corrective exercise if the group w shes it. Leadership will be the main focus of attention, however, and the pro- gram will be moulded to fit the needs and interests of all. There will be six or eight meetings which will deal with general trends and ideas, then the work will be specialized and active work will begin. Anyone who is in- terested in 'leading the line behind the line,' and helping in the national emergency, is urged to come out. Charity Dance Receipts Aid Local Chidldren Herb Miller To Furnish Music At Benefit In League Ballroom; Mittens To Be Given For TreeI Cold hands will find grateful warmth in the mittens contributed by dancers who attend the Christmas Mitten Party to be held from 9:30 p.m. to midnight today in the League Ballroom. ''oal of the evening is set at the procuring of' 500 pairs of mittenst which will be distributed later through the facilities of the Christ- mas Bureau to needy children in Ann Arbor. To Be Hung On Tree Herb Miller and his orchestra, who will play for the affair, are sponsors of the dance in'conjunction with the League. Etch person attending tht dance is asked to bring a pair of in- expensive mittens which will be hung on the huge Christmas tree occupy- ing one corner of the ballroom. Idea for the part is contributed to} Herb Miller who, after consulting the Bureau, found that 500 pairs of mit- tens were on the list as "wanted" for deserving Ann Arbor families who have been helped each Christmas through the Bureau. Aim Is 500 Mittens One of the features of the Bureau is its ability to supply confidential information to donors. Thus, those attending the Christmas Mitten Par- ty willhave the opportunity to help the Bureau realize their aim of 500 mittens. Miller will feature a new arrange- ment of "Auld Lang Syne," a tribute to New Year's Eve for the students who will not be here then and a "first time'" arrangement of "Blue Prelude," written by George Roach, '41.

Dial 4422. i DOn West,, Mimes Publicity ,Man, Is Typical High-Pressure Agent By KAY RUDDY There are a great many things about the opening of Mimes, just as there are about the opening of any amateur show, which could be cis- cussed to the tune of much haw haw- ing. The usual number of college re- view "fowx passes" occurred and there was the usual amount of un- premeditated humor. (In this case it even outbalanced the premeditated type.). If you were there the first night, you could have clutched the arms ofJ your seat in a sort of gleeful horror along with the rest o-f the premiere audience when an extremely large and ever-widening gap appeared in the back seam of. Jeff Solomon's trousers.. You would probably, top, have heard the few bellows of "More!" from the front rows when one of the Can-Can Girls found the bodice of her, dress slipping. West Is Best But you'd have to be a little more closely connected to either the Opera itself or to The Daily if you were to see the best act that Mimes could offer-the frantic spectacle of Don West, high-pressure publicity chair- man for both the Opera and for the Union in one of his, sessions of tear- ing at his owil hair and screaming loud threats of .lynching the man- aging editor if the. Opera didn't get better coverage-and all this in one fell swoop-(as We often say in the Cliche Club.) Don did everything but sew the costumes and model them himself to get photographs of the cast into the latest issue of Garg. He was so wild- eyed about the whole thing that theI Garg photographer, discovering that hey hadn't_ an additional plate for one last phot of the committee, decided not to endanger Don's already over- taxed :arteries and simply told the boys to lineup. An Untaken Picture He then solemnly flashed his last bulb, clicked the lenses over an un- loaded camera, and every one was happy, including Don who probably couldn't have stood it if he had known the awful truth. (Now get a grip on yourself as you read this, West. Life can be beautiful!) In short, Mimes missed its best bet by not including the old type char- acte; of the demon publicity man as one of the characters who came to life under a pulp magazine writer's pen and putting West-the hysterical' prototype, if we ever saw it, into the role. --- Be a Goodfellow ?ec. 15 -- Alpha Gamma Delta announces the pledging of Marion James, '45, of Plymouth, and Anne Evarts, '43, of n Arbor. I 4 Stockwell Hears Dean Lloyd Name Women's War Program C By ALICE FRETZ At all all-out house meeting at 11 p.m. Wednesday in Stockwell, Dean Alice Lloyd spoke on the duties col- lege women can fulfill in the present emergency.- "The best thing you can do in this crisis is kesep on with the work you have," she declared. "The country is going to need its women. You will be doing swell work if you do good work in college." Miss Lloyd advised the limiting of listening to radio broadcasts to two good ones a day as it takes up too much time and is too unsettling to listen to bad news constantly. "There are other ways of being well-in- formed," she remarked, and recom- mended the many fine lectures given every week on campus and the many informative books being published every day such as Berlin Diary, Look- ing for Trouble and Where Stands the Winged! Sentry. Dean Lloyd added further that wo- men may start new courses in nurs- ing and home mechanics after the Christmas holidays, and suggested that dormitory defense committees be set up in coordination with her own committee to organize residents who wish to volunteer for war work. She said, "One thing we have had to learn in this crisis is to give and give and give." Concluding her talk she asked col- lege women to keep calm, steady and healthy, and to do their studies well. "I am going to count on all of you. May God give us the strength and courage." \ t. - ( *. .9 NEW IDEA inRelaxers timed for giving!
