The ball was a pre-war tradi-

pa. The tradition of the Olympic
games themselves goes back to be-
fore 776 B.C. when Corebus was
crowned the first winner of the
games. The festival was held sup-
posedly by Pelops when he won
Hippodamia from her father, Cen-
omaus, in a chariot race.

By LOIS KELSO
POINT with pride to the various liberal organizations who have
brought a new note into our contention-ridden life bf their picket-
ing of Disney's "Song of the South."
I admire the idea behind all this, and would like to point out
Vhat the field is capable of almost unlimited development.
There is a slave named Xanthias in Aristophanes's "The Frogs"
who does not seem properly aware of his degrading plight. He jokes
in a manner absolutely abandoned. The crusaders could picket Eng-
lish 165, where the play is read.
oUR MILITANT FRIENDS might start right at the beginning and
ban a book called Genesis, in which a slave named Joseph dis-
plays something closely resembling gratitude to his master. His exact
words are, "he hath put all that he hath into my hand." which doesn't
sound half resentful enough.
A surprising number of authors has seemed not to realize
man's duty to be miserable in the face of adversity.
Many people have commented irrelevantly that after all slavery
was abolished in this country quite some time ago, and that there
have been no really sustained efforts to revive the institution. All
this, as the boys with the signs realized, is beside the point. The prin-
ciple is what counts, and the principle is that it's dangerous to show
things as they should not be. The facts that they may possibly havef
been that way is unimportant.

Senior Ball is one of the oldest
traditions on campus. Begun in
1873, the dance was held in Rm.
A, University Hall and the whole
first floor of the building was
thrown open for guests. The
dance was traditionally held the
evening before class day, and,
guests received formal engraved
invitations.
When in 1877 the Board of Re-
gents forbade the use of college
buildings for dancing, the class of
'77 put up a pavilion on the north
side of campus in which to hold
the Senior Ball.

en announces that women students

signatures on petitions, other people demanding money, tedious efforts
at explanation to the great uninterested, much display of bad feel-
ing, and an unaesthetic amount of effort all around.
On the other hand, this Cause, which I think I shall call
an Ivory Tower Issue, contents itself with complaining. Surely an
intellectual controversy like this, one which merely remarks that1
something extinct is being misrepresented, is more suitable for
the rarefied atmosphere of a University than one concerned with
the slippery present.
The trouble with burning issues is that they burn. This one doesn't
even smoke.

Initiates Named
Sigma Delta Tau sorority has
announced the names of its new
members.
The initiates are Miriam Fred-
land, Rene Shumer, Evelyn Tar-
loff, Sally Hyman, Esther Sklar,
Rosalie Mayer, Barbara Booker,
June Goldberg, Shirley Kallman
and Joan Davidoff.

The Women's Glee Club, under
the direction of Miss Marguerite
Hood, will present a spring con-
cert at 8:30 p.m. Wednesday,.May
14, in the Lydia Mendelssohn
Theatre.
Their program will include 16th
century madrigals, art songs by
Brahms and Griffes, and a selec-
tion of modern classical songs.
Lennis Britton will be the fea-
tured soloist.
The concert is open to the pub-
lic, according to Barbara Everett,
president of the Women's Glee
Club.
There will be a meeting for
all Wyvern members at 5 p.m.
today in the League.
