Letters were recently sent out to house presidents describing the entire set-up for the carnival. The letter also contained the three ma- jor events and rules for entering each one. Enclosed in each letter was a postcard to be returned to the central committee by Tuesday, Dec. 14. The committee requests that each house specifies how many people they expect from their house in each event. If this is not possible, houses are to specify which events they plan to enter. The main thing is to get the post- cards returned on time. THE CARNIVAL is divided into three major divisions: the Arbo- retum events, the ice carving con- test and the Burns Park ice show. There will be a meeting of the Ice Carving Committtee for representatives from each house at 5 p.m. Wednesday at the Union. The room will be posted on the bulletin board. It is very important that each house be represented. Rules for making the display will be ex- plainecL The Arboretum events will be divided into skiing and tobog- ganning competition. Skiing will consist of cross country runs, skii jumping, slalom rac- ing and novelty races. Under to- bogganing will be three man team competition, tray sliding and also some novelty races. These events will take plane Wednesday afternoon, Feb. 2. Ice Carving will be run on a similar basis as the Homecoming displays. A limited amount of money is to be spent on the con- struction. Full instructions on how to go about building the dis- play is explained in the letter. Each house can choose its own theme. The displays will be judged at 10 a.m. Thursday morning on originality and construction. THE ICE SHOW will be held Thursday afternoon at Burns Park and Thursday night at the Coliseum. The events to be entered at Burns Park include short dash, one lap race, four lap race and house relays. "Crazy Relays" and figure skating will be on the pro- gram at the Coliseum. If anyone has any questions concerning any part of Winter Carnival, they are asked to get in touch with Pat McKenna, 2-2569; Nancy Hess, 2-5618 or Dick S- cum, 4141. "Talent, available, on file"; so reads the notebook of the latest campus organization, the Union- League Talent Committee. Under Bob Perrin. and Jackie Reid this group will start the ball rolling for the establishment of continuous campus-talent file at 7:30 p.m. today in the Union when representatives from all campus organizations will meet to begin a campus-wide talent search. UNDER A SYSTEM recently initiated by the committee, indi- viduals or groups with talent or an organized performance may sign from 3 to 5 p.m. daily in the Union for an audition with the committee floorshow chairman. From these auditions will be picked floorshows for subsequent Uniondances. And from these floorshows will eminate the talent file, which will be available to all or- ganizations, both on and off campus. Such groups as JGP, Soph Cabaret, and Gilbert and Sullivan may spot just what they need in the file, whether he be a ballet dancer or zither play- er. Private groups may search through the files for entertainers or perhaps a guest or two to be the "life of the party." Private and public organization in Ann Ar- bor, Detroit and the surrounding area will no longer need to send special scouts to recruit talent. BIGGEST PROJECT, now defi- nitely scheduled, of these campus' talent scouts will be the spring va- riety show, sponsored by the League, Union and the Glee Clubs. Top performers and entertain- ers groups from the. Union floor- shows will be picked to appear at this affair, scheduled for April 25 which will award over 100 dollars cash in prizes. Chairmen Reid and Perrin encourage groups to pick their talent and send them over to the Union. "Anything from catcalls to organ playing will be ap- preciated if it is done well," say the chairmen.
