Eddie Woodworth and his orchestra will be on the bandstand at the for- mal affair, which will be the high- point of the ATO conclave held in Ann Arbor this year. Members of ATO chapters from Michigan State, Adrian and Albion (will be present for the ball, as well as presidents of all campus frater- nities. Over 400 invitations have been issued for the event.$ Mayor Edward Jeffries of Detroit, and Governor HarrydF. Kelly of Michigan are expected to attend. Ex-governor Murray D. Van Wag- goner, an ATO, was the first of the; state governors to be a patron at Blackfoot Ball. By LOIS KELSO INTIMATE ACQUAINTANCE with the work of T. S. Eliot is an absolute must for all Intellectuals, and as one more step in my struggle to be recog- nized as one of the culturally wide-awake, I have been trying for hours now to get intimate with it. What I mean, T. S. is deep. I was struck with this fact at a meeting of the Michigan Academy a couple of weeks ago, when a visiting expert from Michigan State, discussing the criticism of Eliot, found it necs- sary to devote two paragraphs of explanation to every paragraph of criticism he quoted. This achievement establishes Eliot as the deepest of the deep. Anyone can write reasonably obscure poetry, but critici, m which requires explanation is really something, let's not say what. ELIOT SHOULD be read in much the same manner as murder mysLiries. In both cases, the most revealing clues as to what is going on are to be found near the end. I confess I had read all of "Preludes" in total ignor ante of the real purport of the poem until I came to the lines "You curled the papers from your hair, or clasped the yellow soles of feet in the palms of both soiled hands." Obviously, the poem is about someone suffering from yellow jaun- dice who is not being too well nursed. This assumption explains the first two lines, "You tossed a blanket from the bed, you lay upon your back and waited." Waiting for what?, the thoughtful reader asks himself. For someone to come wash her hands and take the curl papers out of her hair, naturally. charge. Those who win at the booths will be presented with "Michibucks." These will then be taken to the WAA Prize booth where prizes may be pur- chased with the bogus bills. Adhering to a traditional practice of all former Michilodeon and Michi- gras carnivals, local merchants have donated prizes for the prize booth. Winners of the carnival games will have an opportunity to buy such prizes as books, silver bracelets. cologne, lingerie, compacts and sta- tionery, all donated by Ann Arbor campus shops. The outstanding prize is a pair of nylons which may be purchased with "Michibucks." Other prizes include a teddy bear, pipes, billfolds, cigarette cases, handbags, scarfs, novelty pins, tops and boxes of candy. Tickets May Be Had At Booths Additional tickets may be pur- chased at the ticket booths in Water- man Gym. Among the booths sched- uled to be open will be Alpha Xi So phPetitions l Due in League At Noon Today All petitions for Soph Cabaret must be turned in by noon today to the Ju- diciary Petition Box in the Under-.. graduate Office of the League.

HRE FOLLOWS a moving description of the poor invalid suffering through a long night of anxiety, and finally, in desperation, sittirg up herself and taking the curl papers out of her hair and trying pathetically to allay the itching of the jaundice. It's touching. I also have developed my own interpretation of "The Hollow Men." This seems to me a realistic picture of politicians who have not been re- elected. The line "Headpiece filled with straw" is the clue which helped me to understand this one. THIS THEORY explains the lines, "Between the idea and the reality, Be- tween the motion and the act, Falls the Shadow." The Shadow referred to is, of course, the election, coming before the completion of the term of office. It seems to me that Mr. Eliot's final lines, "This is the way the world ends, Not with a bang but with a whimper," are a bit too severe, however. Some politicians retire gracefully.
