By LOIS KELSO P OTENTIALLY almost as dangerous as the atomic bomb is Michigan Diag, a "short-cut beaten path to campus custom and conduct" issued by the dauntless Social Committee of the League. The booklet starts off with the unexceptionable statement that, "If classes didn't meet, there would be no university," which could hardly bother even the people who write letters to The Daily, but this is only a smoke-screen for more sinister things to come. There is something al- most Machiavellian in its discussion of the always painful subject of Ann Arbor's social life. SOMETHING EUPHEMISTICALLY known as "social finesse" appears to be of the essence in emerging from four years at Michigan without a neurosis. A few quotations should suffice to give female readers an idea of what social finesse is, and male readers the jitters. "Well, there are always exchange dinners. If the lad you are paired off with isn't a charm, be nice anyway and maybe the boy across the table will see your radiating personality and call you for a coke with him." "F THE CALL turns out to be some chap you detest, be nice anyway. His roommate, to whom he may report, might be a friend of yours who would be disappointed in your conduct if not your attitude." ... .you may always meet a prospective date while out with an- ther not so interesting. Here let us mention that no matter how dull your date is, it won't last long, and it is your social obligation to give him your attention and make him think you are having a good time because he brought you. At the same time, if you are in a crowd you can have a sly look around and meet them all. This is called social finesse ,and it is based on courtesy and a touch of femininity." ANOTHER ASPECT of this interesting quality is brought out in Diag's discussion of the 12:30 struggle. "But use your old social finesse and re- member there's a place for everything and the spot for loving is not on the doorstep-that's public property and so is the Arboretum." Just for the fun of it, I wish Diag had bothered to tell us where the spot for loving is, if it's neither the doorstep nor the Arboretum. Looking at the problem em- pirically, somebody has been hanging around the wrong doorsteps. My h3eart goes out to the Michigan man, it really does. There is something pathetic in the thought of the poor boy, blasted with waves of radiating personality intended for the guy across the table, cooed at over the phone for the benefit of his roommate, deluded into thinking he isn't dull while his date has a "sly look around," and finally straight- armed on the doorstep. It is interesting to note that even the League Social Committee, which knows all the answers and understands social finesse, begins to skid when it hits the thin ice of What To Do in Ann Arbor. After suggesting several occupations, Diag winds up rather desperately with "... or you might think of something yourself like sailing a kite." Well, there's your shotcut beaten path to campus custom and conduct. I don't know what you're doing here, but I'm looking for the long way home. Women Plan Panhel Activities For Semester Affiliated coeds wishing to work on the various committees for Panhel Ball, to be presented Friday. Novem- Jer 29, are urged to sign up on lists provided in the Unxdergraduate Of- fice of the League. Sorority women must be eligible to work on a committee and may sign for publicity, decorations, patrons, programs, refreshments and ticket committees. The sheets will be post- ed on the Panhel bulletin board un- til the end of this week. At the Panhellenic board meeting Tuesday it was announced that Sally Pearson, Alpha Omicron Pi, will be chairman of the faculty teas, and Doris Johnson, Kappa Kappa Gam- ma, assistant chairman. Miss Pearson and Miss Johnson will work with two Assembly mem- bers in presenting the faculty teas which will be given once a month at the League. These informal teas are designed to promote out-of-class re- lations among the faculty and stu- dents. At the same meeting Panhel voted to sponsor exchange dinners among the sororities on campus. A rotating schedule will be set up by Panhel and the sororities, themselves will be free to decide which day of the week will be most convenient. The Campus Casbah needs cam- pus talent for the floorshow Fri- day and Saturday nights. Anyone interested is urged to attend the tryouts at 7:30 p.m. today in the League Ballroom. WAA Organizations Initiate Programs for Fall Semester THE WAA OUTING and Camp Counsellors' Clubs will hold a break- fast hike at 7:30 a.m. Sunday. The group will meet at the WAB and walk from there to the under- water bridge. Those attending the hike are asked to bring their own food. Membership in the two clubs now numbers thirty, and there are still places for interested coeds. However, according to Virginia Howe, manageri of camp counsellors, women should sign up immediately in order to be eligible for later activities. Outing and camp counsellors' or- ganizations work together during the outdoor season, since the majority of counselling activities are correlated, with those of outing. Events that have been planned for this year in- clude hostel trips and cookouts. During the winter, prospective and advanced counsellors receive instruc- tion in other camp methods. Outing Club meetings are devoted to hikes, skiing, canoeing, and various other outdoor activities. All those inter- ested in the activities of either club are urged to attend the breakfast hike. Those who cannot be there- may call Miss Howe at 2-4471, or Joan Richardson, head of the Outing Club, at 3018. * * * THE WAA SWIMMING CLUB will hold its organization meeting at 10 a.m. Saturday in the Union Pool. The club will swim each Saturday morning throughout the year, and will sponsor such special events as the WAA Intramural Swimming Meet held last Tuesday. Collegiate Sorosis was the winner of the team compe- tition in this meet. As a special feature, work will be- gin immediately on a water ballet to be presented at the Union Open house this fall. Those interested in Swimming club activities are urged to attend the first meeting. The group is under the di- rection of Louise Markhas, WAA swimming manager. Any women who are unable to attend the meeting should call Miss Markhas at 2-4471. * :' * THE TENNIS CLUB is now open- ing classes for the fall season, due to the demand for instruction in be- ginning tennis. Sally Ware, club manager, ex- plained that the weather has been better than expected, and instructors have been found to teach the class. All women interested in tennis in- struction are asked to call Miss Ware at 2-4471. The ladder tournament is now well under way with approximately 65 women participating. Miss Ware urged that members play their matches as quickly as possible, since one match a week is required for par- ticipation credit. League house athletic managers will meet at 4:30 p.m. today in the Women's Athletic Building to dis- cuss WAA tournaments and par- ticipation. Rae Keller , league house manager, asked that all league houses be represented at the meeting. i f he B UDG I .

Women Veterans To-Begin Activities At their first meeting of the year, the University Women Veterans' Or- ganization discussed plans for this year's activities. The group hopes to write and broadcast a radio skit written by the members about the women veterans on campus. Since this is a new or- ganization, the women want to gain recognition by sponsoring various social events this year. The first week of school the or- ganization held an informal get-to- gether for the new women to become acquainted. The officers elected at the first meeting are Anne Dearnley, president; Lucille Schultz, vice-presi- dent; Janet Roth, secretary; Ann Bordman, treasurer; and Shirley Hansen, publicity chairman. The three advisors for the group are Miss Ethel A. McCormick, Dean Mary C. Bromage; and Miss McNeill from Public Health.
