committees for the carnival will
be held at 5 p.m. and 7:30 p.m.

possible out to vote. The second

lette Harbour, Assembly president.

ceremonies.
Something new will be added to
the fun of masqued guests attend-
ing "Masquerade of the Heads,",
semi-formal scheduled from 9e
p.m. to 1 a.m. Fri., Nov. 19 in thei
Union Ballroom.f
According to Jim Kirkemo, pub-
licity chairman, the committee has
prepared a special surprise for the
masqueraders which should pro-
vide an extra measure of the un-
usual.
Students in the School of Music,
College of Architecture and De-
sign, Modern Dance Club, Ballet
Club, Gilbert and Sullivan Socie-
ty and Play Production are eligi-
ble to attend.
IN ADDITION to the atmos-
phere provided by humorous and
fantastic masques and elaborate
abstract decoration, a unique
floorshow has been planned. j
Members of the School of
Muic faculty will provide the
laughs with their skit in music
and pantomine entitled, "Ham-
let, Where Have You Been?"
This playlet scored a hit during
Oriental Week.
The entertainmen will also in-
clude a distinctive performance by
members of the Modern Dance
Club. The dance, called "The Cure
of the Manic," or "Masquerade of
the Head," is completely new and
different, according to Kirkemo.
MEMBERS OF the Ballet Club
will also participate in this part
of the program with a Pas, de
Quatre.
Kirkemo emphasized that all
students in the College of Archi-
tecture and Design are welcome
and urged to attend the dance.
He said that some misappre-
hension has existed in this col-
lege as to who may come to the
affair.
Tickets are now on sale for the
dance in both schools. Specific
place of sale for Play Production
students is posted on the second
floor bulletin board in Temporary
Classroom Building. Tickets are
$2.25 per couple and are limited to
students in the above-listed
groups.
MASQUES, WHICH will extend
from the shoulders up, are expect-
ed to represent everything from
eccentric people to household ap-
pliances. Prizes will be awarded
for the most humorous and the
most artistic masques.
Frank Tinker and his orches -
tra, which regularly provide
music at the Union, will play
for the semi-formal masquerade.
Women will be granted 1:30
a.m. permissions to attend.
Jonas Mullet and Karen Lindh
are co-chairman of the dance
committee, which has been chosen
from all major groups sponsoring
the affair. tA national magazine
and local and Detroit newspapers
will cover the dance.
A revival of Beaux Arts Ball,
formerly a traditional and popular
dance on campus, Masquerade of
the Heals is now entitled Fine

turned to the University as an an-

Solution to Very Grave Problems
Offered by Union Talent Shows

There is now one less student at
the University of Michigan.
An anonymous person has
passed on to the great beyond. The
funeral procession, carrying an
expensive mahogany coffin, was
seen by many shocked students
between 11 a.m. and noon last
Wednesday. Leading the entour-
age was the four piece Zeta Psi
band dressed in "morning" clothes
and led by Hal Beam.
Their dirges threw an atmos-
phere of funeral gloom over the
entire campus. In fact, the inci-
dent caused such gloom that sev-
eral coeds were seen shedding
tears in their-coke.
STHE DECEASED is now buried
-on the mall along with political
discussions. His case is a sad one.
It seems that the poor fellow was
so wrought up at not being able
tdisplay his talents at the Un-
ion Talent Shows that he threat-
ened to do something drastic.
Of course no one took him
seriously when he threatened to
leap from Burton Tower, but
he was true to his word. His
lifeless cadaver was found early
Wednesday morning lying hori-
zontally on the terra firma. It
was not a pretty picture; not one
that we are anxious to have du-
plicated.
This terrible incident has caused
the Union to take notice of the ex-

that innumerable students are
feeling badly because they have
not yet had the opportunity to
display their talents at the Union
shows.
The Michigan Union is now
ready to alleviate all the suffer-I
ing these frustrated entertainers,
are undergoing. All those falling
into this category should come to
the Union Student Offices and
talk to Bob Perrin or some other
member of the Student Relations
Committee.

There will be a meeting of
the officials club members at
6:45 p.m. today in the Barbour
Gymnasium for the purpose of
going to Ypsilanti to take the
scheduled practical tests.
