Turkey Aplenty

Thanksgvg Will Be
Feast Day for Army
Man Away from Home-y
With few exceptions, the boys in
the Army will eat turkey this year
regardless of how far they are from
home, Capt. R. C. Zartman, quarter-
master, announced yesterday.
Turkey dinners were made possible
by an order from the government
freezing the sale of turkeys to civil-
ians until the government had pro-
cured enough to assure every man in
uniform a good helping ofturkey. It
will be a good helping because the
Army allows one pound of turkey per
man, Capt. Zartman said.
The master menu, prepared by the
Office of the Quartermaster General
in Washington, is to be used as a
standard for the entire Army.
Breakfast will be: oranges, dry
cereal, fresh milk, hot cakes; bacon,
toast, butter, sirup and coffee.
For dinner the men will have: fruit
cup, roast turkey with dressing, gravy
and cranberry sauce, mashed pota-
toes, buttered peas, ~corn, tomato and
lettuce salad, crisp celery, assorted
pickles, hot rolls, butter, pumpkin pie,
apples, grapes, candies, nuts and
coffee.
.Supper will consist of: cold cuts,
sliced cheese, potato cakes, vege-
tables, bread and butter, peanut but-
ter and cocoa.

Rushing Rules

Registrationi Period.
For Coeds to Monday
For all freshman and upperclass
women who signed up for rushing,
there will be a compulsory meeting
at 3:30 p. m. Friday in Rackham
Auditorium, according to Mary June
Hastreiter, '44, president of Panhel-
lenic.
It is essential that every woman
who intends to go through the rush-
ing period be present at this meeting
which will be given in order to ex-
plain the entire rushing procedure. It
is expected that many of the prob-
lems which usually confront women
planning to rush will be cleared up at
this time.
At the meeting, all women will be
given booklets explaining sorority
policy, rushing rules and a variety
of other details they will need to
know before they invade sorority row.
These booklets will be made available
at the rushing booth only.
Because of the large number of
women desiring to sign up for rush-
ing this year, the registration period
has been extended until Nov. 29. It
is now possible to register in the
Undergraduate Office of the League.
This year, for the first time, a new
system has been put into effect tak-
ing the place of the former silence
period which existed between sorority
and independent women. All sorority
women have been put on their honor
not to discuss sorority with any
freshman or upperclass non-sorority
women.
Local Residents
Entertain Y-12
About 60 invitations for V-12 men
to eat Thanksgiving dinners at priv-
ate homes in Ann Arbor have been
received at the West Quadrangle.
As many of the men stationed here
live in the vicinity, they are going
home for dinner and taking their
roommates with them; therefore,
only about 40 of the invitations could
be accepted.
Invitations are now posted in the
West Quadrangle for 18 men to at-
tend a dance at Betsy Barbour and
for eight men to go to a dance to be
given by Miss Dorothy White of 118
Forest. Both of these dances will be
held Nov. 27.
Lt. (j.g.) G. J. Jennings, Athletic
Officer of the V-12 unit, is in charge
of invitations.

"After they get so they're not afraid

"At first the bird will be lonesome

While explaining the various tricks

The Surgical Dressings Unit will be
open from 1 p. m. to 5 p.m. today and
Friday as usual, but will be closed
Thanksgiving Day, according to Jean
Whittemore, '44, chairman of the
Unit.
It is hoped that women who ordi-
narily come Thursday will make a
special point of attending today or
Friday since the quota of dressings
must be met.
Inspectors are needed because of
the large number of dressings ex-
pected to be made. Coeds may still
become instructors by putting in six
hours at the Unit and passing a test.
The Rackham Unit will be open
from 7 p. m. to 9 p. m. today and
Friday as usual, and hours spent
there by coeds will be transferred to

THRILLED NAVY GIRLS:I
Helen Hayes Says She Envies
WAVES; Girls Urged To Enlist

"The biggest thrill I've had since
I've been in the WAVES is the time
I got\to talk to Helen Hayes," Re-
serve Specialist 3/c Harriet Simonson
said yesterday.
"Two other WAVES and I got tick-
ets at the service center in New York
to see her in a play. We managed to
make an appointment to talk to her
after tie show. As we walked into
her dressing room she immediately'
made us feel right at home,"'she said.
Actress Is Envious
"She walked up to us and shook
hands, saying, 'How do you do, I'm*
Miss Hayes.' She talked to us about
15 minutes and during this time she
kept saying, 'I envy you women.' Her
husband had gone overseas about two
weeks before this time.
"I think the Navy is good for one
mentally," Specialist 3/c Simonson
continued. "You don't have to worry
about food, clothing or shelter. The
Navy takes care of all these items. No
matter where you are they see to it
that you have good living quarters.
No Time to Worry
"Many women sit at home and
worry about their husbands and
sweethearts who are overseas with-
out doing anything about it. We don't
have time to worry. It makes you feel
good when you're even just a little
Four WAVES Carry On
Malaria Research Here
Four WAVES, all members of the
Medical Research Bureau of the
Navy, are now in Ann Arbor attached
to a malaria research project being
conducted here.
The malaria research is being done
at the School of Public Health under
the direction of Dr. L. T. Coggeshall.
These WAVES came here directly
from Bethwade, vd., and will remain
until their specific part of the work
is completed.
The four are Ensign Genevieve

part of something big, for every little
part is important.
"WAVES are replacing men. New
jobs are not being created for them.
Whenever a WAVE is sent to a sta-
tion, at least one man must go out to
sea," she said.
"I like to have girls at least come
in and talk to us about the WAVES.
Whether they join or not is up to
them. Eligible girls shouldn't be
afraid to come in and talk. They will
be under no obligation," she said.
Quota Is Raised
"The Navy doesn't want to fbrce
people to join. A girl may change her
mind any time up until the time she's
sworn in. The fact that the quota of
the WAVES was raised from 10,000 to
91,000 shows that the organization
has proved helpful to the Navy," she
said.
The WAVE recruiting office in the
Council Room of the League will be
open from 2 to 5 p. m. during the rest
of the-week.
Ensian Staff Meets Today
There will be an 'Ensian business
staff meeting today at 4:30 in the
Student Publications Building. All
staff members and those interested in
selling Student Directories are urged
to attend.
