Main Library
Shows Exhibit
Of Bookplates
o A display of bookplates, showing a
variety of designs in marks of owner-
ship, is being shown in the mairy floors
exhibit cases in the library.
A feature of the institution since'
1920, the exhibits are changed once a
month by the rare book department,
and the examples on display are usu-
ally taken from this section of the
library.
Earliest Examples Shown
Some of the earliest examples on
display-are the colonial and Jacobean
plates and the simple coat of arms in
the armorial division. Also outstand-
ing is a case of valuable books, with
plates showing that*they are from
the collections of such famed biblio-
philes as Henry B. Wheatley, Beverly
Chew and A. E. Newton. Some of
these examples are of leather.
Another case contains plates of
interest because of the association
of their owners with the University,
and a case is devoted to plates from
the books of the different sections of
the University library system.
Personal Plates
A number' of personal plates of
noted persons may be found in the
'xhibit. Among these are the marks
of ownership of Ellen Terry, Presi-
dent Taft, August Frederick, Duke of
Sussex and the plate of Patrick Hen-'
ry, lent by Dr. R. G. Adams.
Cornell, Yale and Johns Hopkins
universities are among those repre-
sented in the section of plates of
well-known institutions.
Worley To Take Trip
Prof. John S. Worley of the trans-
portation engineering department
will leave Wednesday with Mrs. Wor-
ley for a two-week auto trip through
the Southern states and Mexico.

Pefites Pommes de Terre
Christmas is the time of Holly, plum pudding, God Rest Ye Merry
Gentlemen, the Yule Log, and gle--:. g smiles of good cheer. Christmas is
also the time when all undergraduates go home to maw and paw and all the
poor kids back home who don't know how broadening a college education is
and how cultured and smooth it makes one.
This column is'to give you specific suggestions on the proper approach to
the long trip'home on the Student Special, and on how to make yourself
dearly beloved in all social circles when you get there.
Te Oportuniy To Stary..
First of all, you have to realize that this is your big chance-what you've
been waiting for ever since the days back i high school when you had to
be a villager doing Morris dances on the green in the senior operetta while
that cther big mush-face whose tenor wasn't quite
as off-pitch as yours took over the lead and got,
all the attention. But, happy day!-he, poor
w , soul, had to go to a school in the city, and You are
- ~ now the kid with the Aura of Allure.

Pig Banks Replace'
Stamp Collections
As Local Choice
Scmething new has been added to
he list of collectors' possible items,
something that is different and lots
of fun-pig-banks. They're colorful
and add a lot of personality to that
blank space on your bookcase or win-
dow sill.
We saw one collection in a sororityj
house that really caught our eye.
Lined up on two shelves were the
collectors' thirty-one prize pigs, rang-
ng in size from ones almost life-size
to some not much larger than the
pennies they were designed to hold.
Some are made of wood, some of
netal, but the one we liked best was
a medium-sized clay specimen with
red and green stripes and a squashy
nose.
A gif-t shop favorite was a silver
pig with a very curly tail, one ear!
flopped forward of the other, and
an expression on his face similar to
that which Walt Disney give his
third Little Pig.

Romantic Ballad From Opera
To Be Played By Glenn Miller

For the first time in the history
of the Michigan Union Opera, one
of its smash song hits will be broad-
cast over a national hookup by a band
votedthe favorite throughout the
country.
Glenn Miller and his famous or-
chestra will play "A Dream And I" by
Charles Bowen, '41, and Gordon
Hardy, Grad., 10 p.m. tomorrow over
station WJR. By far the most popu-
lar song from the 1941 Union Opera
"Take A Number," "A Dream And I"
has beergiven a special arrangement
by Miller and will be played in honor
of Michigan.
Tex Beneke, Miller's first tenor man
who has gained national popularity
as a novelty singer, will be featured
on the vccal. This is one of Beneke's
few attempts at singig the more ro-
mantic type of ballad.
This is not actually the first time
that Hardy's tunes have received' a
performance by Miller's orchestra;
last year's Senior Ball patrons'heard
the same number when Miller fea-

So start your campaign from the very begin-
ning and begin your preparation even unto the
packing for the trip home. Don't take any for-
mal clothes, because "it's such a lot of trouble to
go formal anywhere, don't you think?" And be-
sides, you get so much more attention at a formal
dance when you're attired in a striped sports
coat and saddle shoes (or even a reversible, if
your collegiate inclinations run to reversibles.)

But even more important, don't fail to include any particular clothes fad
that happens to be popular on the campus. This is so when people ask you
what this article is or comment on it, you will be able to say with an airy
gesture designed to endear you to all and a pardonable blush, "Oh, everybody
('meaning everybody important) wears them back in Ann Arbor!"
The triphome is just about as fine a training as you can get anywhere
for the holiday season and for hardening yourself to the spine-bending
cracks on the back and the joyous good-hearted clean fun which character-
izes the holiday season.
r
The Student Speci.al .
To get home you will take a train which is called, laughingly, the Student
Special. If the w'ord student connotes to you the word study and you think

In The Good fellow river's Seat
INSTRUCTIONS TO GOODFELLOW SALESMEN:
1. The salesmen scheduled to sell at 7:45 a.m. are to report to The Daily office at 7:34 a.m. for buckets,
papers and instructions. Those not preceded by anyone at their post should likewise report to the Student
Publications Building to obtain .materials.
2. Any questions or difficulties should be reported immediately to the Goodfellow Editor, 2-3241.
3. Salesmen scheduled for 12:00 posts on diagonal,jn the engineering arch, in the League and on the
Union steps are to turn over their materials to faculty salesmen and stand by ready to take over whenever
the faculty wish to leave.
4. Post should not be left until a successor appehrs; materials may be turned over to him. Last salesman
at each post should turn in his material to The Daily office.
5. Those directed to downtown posts will come to The Daily firgt. If possible they will be given transporta-
tion. The following will report to-The Daily at the agreed times for downtown work assignments:
Dorothy Briddon, Dorothy Arthur, Jack Muehl, Norman Schwartz, Ruth Fritz, Le Roy Brooks, Irving Jaffe, Ted" King,
Prieskel, Audrey Herschl, Leon Gordenker, Herbert Edelhert a, Beryl Shoenfield, Audrey Rubenstein, Ann Anielewski, Betty
Awry,,Kay Ruddy, Morton Mintz.

that here, in an atmosphere of scholarly quiet, you can get a little of your
final exam preparation done, adjust your opinion. This is-not the case. We
would advise that your equipment include not a set of textbooks, but a sturdy
pair of brass knuckles, a course in Charles Atlas' "Dynamic Tension" method,
and a small portable buzz saw.
But supposing that you safely make the trip home. Your airplane lug-
gage has only six or seven inch-deep scratches on its surface, and you your-
self, with the exception of a severe charley horse in your right hand (thatt
your shootin' hand) are fairly healthy.
And here is where the real action begins. First, keep your ears open for
any slip in grammar which any of your family makes. Correct him firmly;
it is fo his own good. Whenever your mother or father
venture an opinion on some current problem, say, with a
lifted eyebrow, and gazing in a far-off manner at tlie ceil-
ing: "Well, certainly any intelligent person realizes . . .
-completing it with your opinion.
Keep telling your father at every opportunity for god's
sake stop buttoning the bottom button on your coat instead
of the top button; do you want to look like a jerk? If your
mother takes you downtown to buy you a new formal for
New Year's Eve, don't just say, "Aw gee, mom, no!" when
she whips right over to the "girlish nets." Egad, no-don't
let it go at that; this is your chance to get in what most of us are fond of
calling a telling blow. Sigh deeply, and murmur in your smart set voice,
"Please, Mother, don't be stuffy." Bourgeois is another good alternate word
to use in this sentence
The Truth Dawns.
This will probably take care of your family and make them realize what
a big shot you have become, but don't neglect'the outside world, They, too,
should be broiI ht to the understanding of how at last you have found a
broad enough field for your talents-in college--and that at last you are
blooming, as it were.
Go to every dance given in the town during the glad holidays, and for
heaven's sake, don't dance any more than about two turns. Instead, just
stand against the walls, leaning as nonchalantly as possible without falling;
make just a suspicion of a bulge appear in your left cheek to show them how
sophisticated you have become; and absent-mindedly, at five minute inter-
vals, finger your fraternity or sorority pin. A pledge pin is an acceptable
substitute in this procedure.
Keeping The Good Friends. .
And one more thing-when friends come up to ask heartily how you
are and how you are enjoying yourself, say in a far-away voice, "Nice little
party. Yes sir, very nice indeed." Make no comments after this, however;
they would spoil the effect of suaveness which you will have produced.
This is a rather rough outline of suggestions for the holiday vacation, but
we feel sure that you can fill in those phases which have been overlooked.
Finally, don't forget the college sophisticates slogan: "Some gqt it.
Some ain't got it. I got it!" A slit throat, we mean.

Hardy's songs have been promient
in - rampus musical productions for
several, years, ever since his compo-
sition "Love on a Bicycle" which ap-
peared in, 1939's Soph Cabaret took
the students by storm and secured
him a campus-wide ieputation.
