Assembly Will Present Second
Annual Fortnight Show Today


Program To Have
Carnival Theme
The second annual Fortnight Show
for independent women will be pre-
sented by Assembly at 7:30 p.m. to-
day in the Lydia Mendelssohn The-
atre of the League.
Jeanne Clare, president of Assem-
bly Association, will give a short
speech of welcome to freshmen and
sophomore women, and Audrey Wes-
ton, vice-president in charge of dor-
mitories, will act as master of cere-
Monies for the affair. Other events
scheduled for the program include
a novelty skit to be presented by a
group of housemothers, expressing
the trials and tribulations they are
often forced to endure in regulating
the dormitory life of University coeds.
Skit Contest
Another item, on the entertain-
ment list will be a skit contest, the
winner of which will be awarded a
prize. Skits will be limited to five
minutes. Contesting residences in-
clude: Mary Markley House, Mosher,
Jordan, Stockwell, Martha Cook, Hel-
en Newberry, Betsy Barbour and
Adelia Cheever.
The show will have a carnival
theme which will be carried out by
decorations, and ushers for the ev-
ening will be dressed as clowns. As-
sembly's slogan for the affair is, "Hop
on the Assembly Merry-Go-Round."
The program will conclude with the
audience singing favorite college
songs. ,
Initiated Last Year
Assembly Fortnight, which is a

week of specially planned activities,
was initiated last year in order to
acquaint independent women with
the traditions and projects of their
Association, and with the functions
of the League as a whole. This year
members of the organization will
continue the 'precedent by visiting
various residences for independent
women in order to answer questions
and to explain more fully the work-
ings of the Association. This pro-
gram will continue until the presen-
tation of Recognition Night.
All independent women on campus,
particularly new coeds, are cordially
invited to attend the Fortnight Show
today.
Riding Club To Hold
First Meeting Today
The first meeting of Crop and
Saddle Riding Club will berheld at
7:15 p.m. today in the WAB for
all coeds interested in trying out for
the club.
All old members of Crop and Sad-
dle and University Women's Riding
Club are expected to attend the
meeting. Formerly a separate club,
University Women's Riding Club is
now a member of Crop and Saddle.
The club will be divided into three
or four sections this year, each group
riding once a week, according to
Karen Larsen, president.
"Coeds need not be expert riders
to try out for the club, but some rid-
ing experience is necessary," Miss
Larsen said.
Tryouts will be scheduled for a
later date.

Coeds Obscured
By Hazy Daze
Of Blue Room
By JOYCE JOHNSON
Pull up an old cigarette butt and
listen to the tale of what became of
all the collegiates who started smok-
ing during the cigarette shortage
when standing in line with the rest
of the fiends was the social thing to
do.
Most of them went to rack andI
ruin and can be found in the vicin-j
ity of the smoking den in the base-
ment of Angell Hall. Between
classes thousands thunder down to
cough in the fumes instead of
shocking their systems with fresh
air.
Even if one hasn't the price of a
cigarette he can rush to the blue
room and inhale a little of the atmos-
phere guaranteed to give one nico-
tine stain all over.
Social opportunities abound for the
coeds who are ready and waiting with
matches because those handsome vet-
erans have to run out of lighter fliud
sooner or later.
There are two ways to strike up
an acquaintance in the smoking
room-either borrow.a cigarette or
borrow a match. A very few still
rely on the call of Bacall and curl
themselves around the door with
"Has anybody got a match" ....
but to no avail since they can't be
seen through the haze.
A few unsure ones, new at the
habit, may be seen shuffling through
the ashes determined to handle their
cigarettes with that nonchalant air,
while the sophisticates advise that
if they haven't got the habit yet for
heavens sake stop .,.

FRESHMAN
QUERIES


I ,
id

(Editor's Note: This is the first in a
series of articles in which the Office of
the Dean of Women answers questions
asked by freshmen women during the
orientation period.)
Question: "Where does the woman
veteran fit into the University pic-
ture? We are not graduate students,
but are out of the undergraduate age
group."
Answer: The woman veteran will
receive special consideration on
campus because of her war record.
It is true that most are slightly
older than the average coed be-
cause of their length of service.
Although student government reg-
lations apply to veteran and non-
veteran alike living in organized
women's residences, the veteran
woman is free to apply for such
special permissions as she needs.
Because women veterans share
some mutual interests apart from
those of non-veteran women, the
University Women Veteran's Asso-
ciation, the first of its kind in the
country, has been organized. The
association has planned special func-
tions for veteran women, such as
their recent open house at the League
to welcome the women veterans and
help them to know the campus.
The residents of the Willow Run
dormitory for women are largely
veterans. Because of the bus sched-
ule, regular closing hours cannot
be kept. Instead, the residents will
set up their own regulations in
conjunction with the house direc-
tor.
Special social programs at Willow
Run have already been planned. The
first Friday night dance at the West
Lodge Community Building will be
held Friday, Oct. 11, and all resi-
dents of the women's dormitory are
invited to attend.

All those who intend to work on
the various activities must bring
their eligibility cards to the mass
meeting. Any one who will be un-
able to attend tomorrow's meeting
should contact the chairman of the
committee in which she would like
to participate.
