Decorations Will Combine
Highway Advertisements,
Reminders of College Life
The nostalgic theme of M-47,
the 1947 Senior Ball, will be car-
ried out in decorations which will
combine reminders of college days
with typical highway advertise-
ments.
Dancers will have the vantage
point of automobile paosengers
riding along a country highway.
Replicas of well-known Ann Ar-
bor stores, theatres and old fa-
miliar meeting places will line
the walls of the dance floor. Spe-
cial feature of the decorations will
be a miniature Arboretum in which
the patrons will be seated.
Billboards bearing Varga
girls, commercial signs and fun-
ny sayings will contribute to the
higpway theme. Decorations
will include stop signs and
blinker lights borrowed from
the Ann Arbor police depart-
ment.
Refreshments will be served in
Ferry Field during the dance, and
a public address system will carry
the dance music out of doors. Dan-
cers may get refreshments inside
where ginger ale dispensers will
be set up around the dance floor.
Novel dance programs in the
form of miniature road maps will
be distributed to women guests.
The maps will open up to reveal a
map of the campus-as seen
through the eyes of a student. No
corsages will be worn at Senior
Ball.
Dick Jurgens and his orches-
tra will play for the annual
dance which will be held from
10 p.m. to 2 a.m. tomorrow in the
Intramural Building. Women
students will have 2:45 a.m.
permission. Tickets are avail-
able to members -of all classes
and will be sold from 9 a.m. to
noon and from 1 to 3 p.m. to-
day and tomorrow at the booth
in University Hall.
Senior Ball, one of the oldest
traditions on campus, was begun
in 1873. The first dance was held
in Rm. A of University Hall, and
the whole first floor of the build-
ing was thrown open to guests.
The dance was traditionally held
the day before the first class day,
and guests used to receive formal
engraved invitations.

versity Women's Glee Club will be

will be held at 4 p.m. at the

Spare, vice-president; Barbara
Clark, secretary; Marian Sayward,

Alpha Eta Pledges

12 Campus Coeds
Twelve women who were pledged
rcenrtlyr to Alpha Eta, local social
organization, became active mem-
bers at an initiation ceremony yes-
terday.
Alpha Eta was not able to par-
ticipate in formal rushing this
spring, according to Jane Wet-
more, Panhellenic rushing chair-
man, because the group had not
yet obtained a house. The new
members were pledged during the
informal rushing season.
Alpha Eta is a local group which
is colonizing at the present time
with the intention of becoming af-
Aliated with a national sorority.
Old-fashioned waist line cor-
sages are coming back, but the
blossoms must be carefully chosen
to complement the colors of your
favorite frock. Flowers must be
considered part of the whole en-
semble to be effective.
