of the ballroom. The crest is in the
shape of a triangle, symbolizing the
three organizations which make up
Assembly; dormitories, league houses,
and Ann Arbor Independents.

Following their seven-year tradi-

carnations for the dance and will'
continue to do so all day today. These
may be purchased in the League

They may be called for at the en-
trance to the ballroom.

Engineers In Defense Will Be
Theme For Slide Rule Dance
Unless jealous lawyers succeed in
pilfering the rule again this year, the
12-foot giant slide rule which has
been the patron saint of Slide Rule
Balls of the past will be present in
state at this year's dance, to be held
March 27 in the Union Ballroom.
Otherwise, however, decoration
schemes will differ greatly from
themes used in the past, as this
year's ball will pay due tribute tol
the admirable job the engineer isl
doing in both industry and the armedI
forces.
Decorations Revealed
Although the sponsoring Technic
staff hesitated to release detailed in-
formation lest the lawyers use the
information to sabotage the dance, itI
was revealed yesterday that a huge
magazine will adorn the north end

portray both the engineer in industry
and the man in the service.
In keeping with this scene, draw-
ings depicting industrial engineer-
ing projects will decorate one side
of the ballroom while the other wall
will contain pictures showing engi-
neering work in the Army.
Tentative plans call for black and
white silhouette drawings, with light-
ing behind to accentuate the effect.
Four drawings on each side will be
the rule, according to present plans.
Lawyers Out For Revenge
Featured as the theme of last year's
I dance were the engineer's four years
in college, appropriate drawings de-
picting the various trials and tribu-
lations of the engineering freshman,
sophomore, junior and senior.
Although The Technic staff hopes
there will be no friction between en-
gineering and law factions this year,
it is a well-known fact that several
influential law students are out to
revenge the fact that the Slide Rule
Ball, formerly held the same night
as their own Crease Ball, will this
year antedate them by over a month.
