Streak of Humanism Changes

Tflie girl; or Collegiae Sorosis sor-

vetoed the Ilan, oci!iinally couiceivedl
for Bomber Scholarshi}1's "Michi-
bomber" carnival March 11 in Waler-
man Gymnasium.
The coed's "ducky" idea for a booth
at the "Michibomber" turned out to
be strongly reminilscent of a stunt at
the last "Michelodeon" carnival sev-
eral years ago, at which the city
humane society stepped in. This time
the ducks were to be plted in a
bathtub and ('ustomners were to vie
for honors at throwing rings arounl
the birds' necks.
In finding it necessary to duck this
plan, the sorority was victim of a
quack deal, unless feathers are more
to be considered than the human

customers can throw wet sponges at
girls, can drench men with ibatgs of
water, can endanger thelives of oth-
ers present by tossing darts from a
swivel-chair. But, they c in' toss a
ring around a duck.
Toroughly indoctrinatvd ith hit-
mianitrianism, the Sorosis girls have
decided to become a boon to mankind
and run a special telegraph service
at the carnival, whereby for a small
sum you can send a message to any-
one on the floor.
Sorosis might help you catch a
bird, after all.

Coeds To

Care

Uiv

For Children
At Willow Run
University coed volunteers will
work in the new community house
nursery at Willow Run tomorrow to
care for children while their parents
are at the opening dance of the
house, according to Lucy Chase
Wright, '44, chairman of the League's
child care committee.
The committee is asking for volun-
teers for another project, the newly-
formed Youth Club at Willow Run,
an organization of high school stu-
dents. According to Miss Wright, the
club meets every Tuesday from 7:30
p.m. to 9:30 p.m. and is in need of
recreational leaders.
Willow Run playgrounds are also
asking for University volunteers, ac-
cording to Miss Wright, and the com-
mittee will enlist coeds as playground
directors next semester.
'Thumbs Down on
V-Mail Kisses' Post
Office Announces
The soldiers may want a paper
dolly but the girls at home like paper
kisses. At least that's the general
opinion of the post office officials
when they have to sort the innumer-
able V-mails with the ruddy but
rather messy lipstick lip-prints end-
ing the letters.
Until Valentine's Day these kisses
will be permitted to go through the
regular #-mail process, but after Dan
Cupid's day all such romantic tricks
must cease, announced the post office
yesterday.
Any lipstick print found in a V-
mail letter after Feb. 14 will cause
the V-mail to be sent in the ordinary
mail.
Frosh Dance Plans
Changed; New Event
Will Be Announced
Plans for the freshman dance orig-
inally planned to be held early in
March have been cancelled because
of conflicting events already sched-
uled for the first weeks of the spring
term, according to Estelle Klein, '47,
chairman of the '47 Corps.
Another big event to be announced
later will take the place of the dance,
Miss Klein said.
