Arwis 17, iz THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE FlV! International Ball Will Be Given Today In Union Ballroom Skits, Chorus To Be Given - - -- At 'Spot Hop' The Class of '45 announces a gala intermission of entertainment for the "Spot Hop," the Freshman Project, which will be, held from 9 p.m. to midnight, April 18, at the League Ballroom. Four skits will be presented. Alpha Chi Omega will stage a skit on a Freshman's First Blind Date. Chi Omega will give an act called "Dorm Fever," where every woman is con- fined to her bed with measles. A fashion show which will be a take- off on the types of dress that can be seen on campus, is to be the feat- ure of Gamma Phi Beta. Jordan Hall will satirize the treatment one receives at the Health Service when strickened with measles. Eileen' Blum, '45, a contralto, is to sing two numbers: "Kiss in the Dark" and "Bill." A chorus made up from the Barbour Gym tap class will do a number. Perhaps one of the best features of the evening will be the singing of the Psurfs (The Ann Arbor Mountain-Climbing and Psurf-Riding Association). The mis- tress of ceremonies will be Natalie Mattern, '45. Homage was paid to all women who have aided in bringing honor to the name of Mosher Hall yesterday at a formal dinner held at the dormitory. All who had achieved a high schol- astic average, as well as the women who had obtained appointments in extra-curricular activities, were pre- sented with flowers and gifts. Stockwell Hall has done an exten- sive job of entertaining this week. Tuesday, they held an exchange din- ner with Hinsdale and Greene Houses of the East Quadrangle. Wednesday, Stockwell held a house tea which was attended by the residents and their guests.

(Coninued on Page d) 'Prices Were Much Lower Then,' Say Files By BETTY AWREY From now on we are going to hear the wail, "Remember how cheap! things were before the war?"-we think they were cheap but just look at the. newspaper advertisements be- fore the First World War. Whale-' bone corsets guaranteed not to crack in the waistline were 79 cents, girls! Look in the files of any Ann Arbor newspaper of around 1908 or so and see how fashions change even in the lowly rag. Who could resist the sales' talk of "Dress Goods Slaughtered" or the headlines declaiming "Col- lege Students Do Not Drink" or "Japs Are Sensitive"? Daily Scorned Women's Ads The Michigan Daily, with a tra- ditional scorn of women, did not cater to their buying power in their ad- vertisements, but The Ann Arbor News constantly featured special sales. French Val lace was one cent a yard, fur scarfs of "Japanese mink" were $5.70 and now safely away from the Victorian Age, ladies' fine ribbed union suits were featured at 79 cents. Other items were mourning pins (???) one box for a penny, and be- lieve-it-or-not, sirloin steak was 15 cents per pound. Living Was Inexpensive! Those were the good old days when the Lecture Series AND Choral Un- ion tickets were three dollars for the series of 10 for each of them. One of our leading bookstores also used to offer the latest fiction at a flat rate of $1.20, and who knows what text books were? Fancy phrases as ". . . the remains will arrive on the 6:10 train" or ". . four children have been given to this union, two of whom survive" sound silly now, but 20 years later our obitu- aries and probably the rest of the nation's papers will be just as funny o the next generation. SSPR ING STRAW To make your i cutfit complete for milder ' weather we are{ showing wider 1 brimmed hats in prng trws 'Bomber Dance' To Be Given Wolverine is sponsoring a "Bomb-f er Dance" for the Bomber Scholar- ship Fund from 9 p.m. to midnight Saturday, April 25, in the Wolverine dining room. Gross proceeds from the dance will go to the fund since the food will be donated by the Wolverine and the labor by 78 Wolverine workers. These 78 men have made up their own committee which includes, Ed Sosnowaki, '43, Jerry Moscowitz, '45E, Paul Gardner, '44, Murray Gottlieb, '42, Ted Astley, '43, with whom th? Wolverine Board of Directors, head- ed by John Scheibe, '42M, president, is cooperating. Ann Arbor business organizations are also assisting with money contributions which will be used for programs. It should be stressed that this is' an all-campus affair, open to every- one, and wide support of all groups is hoped for by the committee. Signs will appear shortly on bulletin boards and tickets may be bought at the door as well as other places which will be announced later. Group To Hold Party All students in the School of Pub- lic Health and their guests are in- vited to attend the Public Health Party at 8:30 p.m. today in the As- sembly Hall of the Rackham Build- ing. Games and dancing will be fol- lowed by refreshments. ,p ( -"I Yov Th jNEW look Picnics are in order for the comn- ing warm days that we have so hap- pily tasted this past week. With base- ball, boating and fun in general, you're going to want some good hardy :lothes that will take their share and more of knocking around. Slacks, of course, are the first Lhing one thinks of for the forth- -oming hardy outdoor life. However. 'since no coed wants to be the walk- ing demonstration of "what slacks '3hould not do for one," care should be taken in buying. Well c'ut grey i'lannels or a navy gaberdine trouser ;uit with matching jerkin or jacket will gain you a reputation of being well-dressed everywhere. Denims are also popular for still more strenu- ous activities from now on through' fall.
