Y a Senior Wartime World To Predominate Banquet Theme Highlights Of Dinner Will Be Revelation Of 'Who Is What', Songs From 'Jumping Jupiter' Bearing the slogan of "'42 has lots to do," senior women will dine at 6:30 p.m. March 25, in the League ballroom at their traditional Senior Supper before the initial perfor- mance of the 1942 JGP is given in ,their honor in the Lydia Mendelssohn Theatre. Banquet theme this year will be quite different from predious yearsI in order to be in keeping with the times, Marny Gardner, '42, chairman, announced. "The women who go out of this class will enter a different kind of world, and will take impor- tant jobs in defense and in home lines," she added. Women To Attend JGP After being wined and dined, the Class of '42 will troupe through the League and end up in the Lydia Men- delssohn Theatre to hiss and boo and cheer, as the case may be, at the Class of '43's "No Questions Asked." Honored guests with first floor seats, the senior women will dele- gate the first few rows to the nurses, because ofntheir importance in na- tional defense. The will form a white block against the black of the mortar boards and gowns of the rest of the class. Announcements Planned One of the highlights of the din- ner will be revelation of 'who is what' -or the public announcement of being pinned, engaged or married, by the respective acts of taking straight pins, sucking a lemon or blowing out a candle. During the banquet, songs from "JUmpin'Jupiter" and a song written especially for presentation to the juniors and .to be sung before the curtain goes up will be rehearsed. After the dinner, and, on the way to the Theatre, '42 women will sing songs from their Greek presentation of last year, and will also present skits taken from their production be- fore the first performance of the 1942 JGP. Announcement of ticket sales and purchase of caps and gowns will be made in the near future, Miss Gard- ner said.

Supper To Honor 4 2 Women Mact-h ~25 'War-Tuned' Wardrobe EnI sts Efficiency And Attractiveness t ! J Efficiency ! There can be no more timely noun for our times and this word must be reflected in our choice of clothes for' the coming period. To- day, our wardrobe must be as stalwart as our efforts. Gabardine is ever a basic material and an entire ''high, efficiency" wardrobe can be built around one good gabardine suit such as the one pictured above. * This sleek suit comes in a galaxy of colors-pastels which rival the rainbow-but, again, for greatest wear throughout the year, a more basic color is suggested, such as beige. Bright notes can be achieved in many ways-a candy-striped blouse is as effective as it is fresh and spring-like. Vary the suit with various blouses-immnaculate white, bright red or kelly green--one shiny lapel pin will dregs up this suit enough for almost any occasion. A contrasting top coat of the same material will provide you with a more-than-substantial nucleus for a "war-tuned" wardrobe. FEver a classic and always in style is the glen plaid suit, also pictured above. Distinct in the fact that the skirt is pleated all the way around to flatter your figure, this suit, made up in- the British tweeds, will last and last. A new twist to the old story of an ascot worn with a classic suit is to jab a jeweled pin into the middle of the ascot instead of wearing it on the lapel. Suits seem to be the perfect answer to the necessity of clothes which will bear variation, be appealing and attractive always, and wear like the proverbial iron.

'Peg' Sanford Goes To Capital, Is Entertained At White House By JEAN CORDELL It seems that Margaret Sanford, '42, president of the League and gen- erally known as "Peg," has just re- turned from hobnobbing with Sena- tors, Representatives and Mrs. Roose- velt, no less, when she attended a conference last week in Washington, D. C., on the "Future of Government Youth Organizations." Fifty-five college editors and stu- dent body presidents were called to- gether to Washington to be shown how certain government bodies are working in education now, and to dis- cuss the possibility of improving them during the present crisis. Mich- igan, as represented by Miss San- ford, was as far west as the confer- ence included, the rest came from eastern and southern states. Luncheon At White House Luncheon at the White House with Mrs. Roosevelt as speaker, tea at the Henry Morgenthau home, hearing a session of the House, and trips through all of the important places in the capitol, were included in Miss Sanford's itinerary. Discussion groups and visits to the Senate Committee on Education and Labor, the Selective Service Head- quarters and the Office of Education were also part of the program spon- sored by the Washington Student Service Bureau, to* say nothing of visits to the newest Art Gallery and eating at Child's at the table next to Admiral Byrd's (not sponsored by the Bureau.) In the discussion groups, the col- lege representatives heard talks on Confirmation Class the possibility of government finan- cial support for schools speeding up their programs for the duration, and also talks and discussions on the ad- visability of enlistment in the army. Town Is Crowded Miss Sanford's opinion of Wash- ington as viewed by an outsider is "that the town is terribly crowded. It's almost impossible to get a hotel room, and the Union Station is al- ways so full of soldiers that it looks as though a troop train has just pulled in. I'd also like to say that, although I am a Republican from way back, I found Mrs. Roosevelt to be without doubt one of charming and intelligent have ever seen." TiCkets To the most women I Go On Open Sale Complete Sell-Out Is Expected For Annual Slide Rule Ball Thirty-count 'em!-30 tickets for the annual Slide Rule Ball, to be held Friday, March .27, in the Union Ballroom, will be available at the Union desk starting today, Ball Chairman Burr J. French, '42E, has announced. And lest prospective customers think that's a good many and put off buying their ticket, French also revealed that 320 tickets were sold the first two days of sale, and that The Technic staff, sponsoring the annual engineering dance, expects a complete sell-out by the end of to- day. Although the dance is primarily for engineers, the ticket sale is now be- ing opened to the campus at large after two days of exclusive sale, as it is felt that most engineers interest- ed in going have already purchased their tickets. Bunny Berigan, claimed by many to be one of the greatest trumpet players of the world, will supply the music for the dance, dancing hours to be from 9 p.m. until 1 a.m. Uni- versity women may get late permis- sion. In selling 330 tickets in only two days, the Slide Rule Ball has prob- ably set a new record in ticket sales for campus dances.

Slosson and Mrs. Cleverdon, state chairman of the Save the Chil- dren Federation. ** * Adelia Cheever residents. have been in a huddle these last few weeks in planning their formal dance to be held next Saturday. Evelyn Kuivin- en, '43A, general chairman of the dance, now announces that the "Damsels in Defense" dance will be preceded by a buffet supper for the women and their guests. What with defense playing such an important part in our daily lives the committee has unselfishly decided to have it a radio dance and to purchase a defense bond with the money that would for- merly have been spent on an or- chestra. * * * On Thursday all dormitory presi- dents were guests of honor at the dinner held by Mosher Hall. Mary Jane Denison, '42, aided by the Mo- sher house officers who acted as hostesses for the evening, was chair- man of the dinner.

La Sociedad Hispanica presents "LA INDEPENDENCIA" Collaboration Of Student Talents Make Radio Programs Possible 'Behind The Scene' Shows That Slap-Happy, Hair Tearing Time Is Enjoyed By All Producers By BERYL SHOENFIELD We of the radio aucl4ence little understand, as we listen to programs emanating from Morris Hall, what has first taken place to make these shows possible. Of prime importance is the crea- tion of the scripts, and particularly are original ideas needed for serials. A little scene, witnessed in studio B, will illustrate how ideas for new broadcasts originate: It all began when the Invincible Three-Marvin (The Beast) Levey, '43, Bill Stegeth, '42, and Jack Mit-. chell, '42-discovered an antique phonograph in the studio, complete with perforated metal discs. As ra- dio instructor Don Hargis sat on the floor, grinding out "Listen to the Mocking Bird" and "Dixie," inspira- tion flitted in legion through these creative minds. "Think of the stories an old thing like that could tell," Levey said. Mitchell hummed a bar from "Lis- ten to the Mocking Bird." "Gather 'round, children, and I will tell you a story of the long, long ago," he said, in a strangely tired and me- chanical.voice. This, then, was the phonograph speaking. "Flash back," Stegeth added, "to the long, long ago. Two children are....." "Why we could make it a whole series," Levey interrupted, with an eye to expansion. "And each week a different song JGP music committee will be at 7:30 p.m. today in the League Ball-] room. MICHIGAN OUTING CLUB They're at it again-that Michi- will suggest another story," cried Mitchell, exuberant. Then the thgree put their heads together and began scratching out a script, on the backs of envelopes and memoranda. Don Hargis, sitting happily on the floor and grinding out the tunes, smiled. After the theme has been selected and the student script has been writ- ten, the campus show offers further problems. First comes casting, with 15 enthusiastic students vying for five parts, and the director interrupt- ing the tryouts with a curt "Next!" And then rehearsal time must be found convenient for all cast mem-I bers, scripts must be mimeographed, and program participants assembled in time to broadcast on signal. "The shows must go on!" And they do. 21 Women To Sing JGP's 'Why' Today In League Ballroom First public audition of 1942 JGP's music will take place at 11 p.m. today in the League Ballroom when 21 junior women invade the bandstand of Gordon Hardy, to sing "Why" written by Al Waterstone, music, and Earl Brent, lyrics.
