By LEE KALTENBACH Abilities in abundance may well describe the 18 coeds residing in Mary Markley House, recent win- ners of Assembly's two major an- nual awards. Both the scholasticeachievement cup and the activities participa- tion cup were presented to Mark- ley residents at "Opening Night" festivities,nAssembly's fourth an- nual Fortnite celebration. The gold cups are awarded on a percentage basis each year to the independent residences at- taining the highest scholastic av- erage and the greatest extra-cur- ricular activities participation. Mary Markley House won the scholastic award this year with an average of 2.89. * * * THE RECENT honors seem especially remarkable since the house is run on a semi-cooperative plan. Each coed works on an av- erage of eight hours per week in the house. Mary Markley House has functioned under its present name since the spring of 1942. Before that time it was known as Alumnae House. The residence has always been run on a semi-cooperative basis, however, whereby the women pay regular room and board and are paid by the University for the work they do in the house. * * * THIS YEAR'S house president is Stella Brey and Miss Helen Heikkinen isresidence director. Forty-five per cent of the women in the house who are en- tirely self-supporting also hold part-time positions along with working in the house. About 80% of the women are here on scholarships, many of whom have been awarded individ- ual honors for scholastic or extra- curricular achievements. This year Marjorie McLain; sophomore at Mary Markley, received an As- sembly activities award. Last year Mary Markley House was awarded the independent res- idence activity awaird and the small residence WAA participa- tion award. The house was also honored at Assembly Ball by be- ing given possession of the Queen of Hearts Booth for selling the greatest percentage of tickets for the dance. Freak Meeting Ends in Wedding SAN FRANCISCO - (R) - Miss Frances Mackey becomes Mrs. Francis Mackey at the Little Cha- pel of Lakeside here Saturday. And if you think that's funny- well, so did she. That's what start- ed the romance. Mrs. John G. Mackey of the Dalles, Ore., happened to see the name of Army Flier Francis Mackey in a service paper during the war. He was stationed in North Africa. Amused, Mrs. Mackey sent the clipping to her daughter, Frances Mackey, a Navy nurse in Hawaii. Frances was amused, too. Fran- cis and Frances began writing letters to each other. After the war, they got a look at each other and eventually went shopping together, for a ring. The Casbah has had its face lifted! Capricious checks in gay blues, yellows and reds will dominate the modernistic atmosphere of "Schmooland," which will be a far cry from the oriental touch of the original Casbah. Sparkling "schmoos" will pop up everywhere among the checks - and perhaps peek from behind the bandstand to perturb Art Starr and the Casbah music makers. Despite its new appearance Casbah will retain its old title, which has become a by-word for campus dance-goers. Along with the new decorations have come the new seating ar- rangement with conversation groups the dominating factor. .The familiar table system will continue for the convenience of large party groups. This week's floorshow will be presented by Blade and Schmiter and will feature the one politician on campus who is strictly on the fence, Ed Miellef, in a saber and epee demonstration. Micllef and Norman Barnett will show how college dueling is really done. A novelty duel with balloons at the vulnerable points will also be presented. Art Starr and his "Quality Boys" will enter their fifth week on the Casbah bandstand. Soph Cabaret There will be a rehearsal of the speaking parts for Soph Cabaret at 4 p.m. today in the League.
