Need 'U' Workers
Although the response of Univer-
sity coeds has been excellent, we still
need some women to work in the nur-
sery schools of Ann Arbor, said Jean
Pines, '46, yesterday.
Women who volunteer for this ac-
tivity will go down to the local nur-
sery schools in the afternoon and
care for the children. Game lead-
ing, reading, and generally directing
the children will be the duties of the
helpers. Some coeds are already go-
ing down to the, Perry School, but
after the holidays, a second school
will be opened and more volunteers
will be needed.
Any coed interested in becoming a
nursery school helper is asked to con-
tact Miss Pines at 2-5587.

By LYNNE FORD
Femininity is back ! Or have you
noticed? The girl who went out
dancing last year in a covered up,
pencil slim, conscientious little din-
ner dress, will greet her New Year's
Eve beau this year in a purely femi- i
nine confection of a dress, even more '
persuasive because of its long ab-
sence.
Up-to-date gals now realize the
potentialities of pink for that, ultra- I
feminine, clear eyed healthy took.
Also the powers of flattery in a long,
I softly, curling hair-do. In perfumes,
the intriguing scents desirable only
a year ago, are replaced by pretty
fragrances. Jewelry is less massive,
cosmetic shades more subtle.
h
It's all rather startling, after the
incessant droning of fashion maga-
zines advocating simplicity to the
point of severity. But this year, fa-
shion has an urge to beauty and a
reversion to becomingness. Psycho-
logically, it is probably woman's in-
born desire to flatter man, to please
the boys who are already home, and
to show her confidence that others
will soon be back. But no matter
what the reason, this queer phen-
omenon called woman has finally
realized that she is at her best being
f erninine.
t
Due to the lame response of
University coeds desiring to become

coeds ahead of schedule with dinners
land special programs at the dorms
this week helping to extend the short
holiday vacation. i
III Stockwell Hall had their annual
Christmas dinner yesterday with Mrs.
Robert Mercer and Mrs. Mary C.
Bromage, both of the Dean of
Women's Office, as their guests. A
program of carols and the reading
of the Christmas story around the
lighted tree in Stockwell's spacious
lounge followed the dinner. Miss
Kaye Keyes, staff member, will di-
rect the Stockwell chorus when they
carol at University Hospital Thurs-
day night.
Dean Jeannette Perry was Mosher
Hall's guest at their dinner yesterday.
After dinner coffee was served in
the living room, preceding the pro-
gram. Included on the program was
a selection by the glee club, a read-
ing of the Christmas story, by Serene
Sheppard, and a solo, "The Holy
Mother" by Virginia Zapf. Christmas
carols followed the program, with
Mr. Wilborne Hill, Mosher house-
man, climaxing the evening by ap-
pearing" in his now traditional role
of Santa Claus. !
At Geddes House Wednesday, girls
were called for by a group of carolers
who led them into the dining room
for dinner. Gifts, suitable for chil-
dren in the hospital, were exchanged
by the girls, and will be sent to Uni-
versity Hospital.
All dormitory stamp represent-
