Panhel, ssembly To Sponsor
Christmas Party for Freshmen

.," _

Panhellenic and Assembly As-
sociations will sponsor a Christ-
mas party for freshmen women
from 3 to 5 p.m. Wednesday, Dec.
15 in the League Ballroom.
This will be the first opportun-
ity for the women of the class of
1952 to get to know each other.
This party is being given to pro-
mote friendship between coeds of
the freshmen class and upper-
classmen, also. It will be an in-
troduction to the League and its
activities.
"The need for such a party has
been felt before, but this is the
first attempt to solve the problem.
On such a large campus as Mich-
igan's some introduction to cam-
pus social and extracurricular life
is needed so that the freshmen no
longer feel that they are such an
'insignificant part of the scheme
pf college life," Marilyn Flynn, co-
chairman of the event reported.

HOSTESSES for the party have
been chosen from all dormitories,
league houses, sororities, and Ann
Arbor students.
In addition members of
the board of Panhellenic Asso-
ciation, affiliated women's or-
ganization, and Assembly Asso-
ciation, organization for inde-
pendent women, will also be
hostesses.
These women will introduce the
freshmen to other guest s.'Both
guests and hostesses will wear
nametags.
DECORATIONS on the Christ-
mas theme will add to the gala
spirit. Although the party will be
strictly informal, tables will be
decorated like huge gift packages
with gay ribbons and papers. The
windows will be hung with red
and green paper. Written in huge
letters on the closed curtains of

the stage will be the traditional
greeting, "Merry Christmas."
Even the table bearing re-
freshments will have a center-
piece of pine boughs, and holly
with a miniature Christmas tree
in the middle.
nE ntertainment has been
planned to suit all tastes. Those
who care to may play bridge. For
those who like more formal enter-
tainment there will be a floor-
show. Pat Baumgarten will be the
featured pianist and Jean Boos
will sing. The mistress of cere-
monies will be Mrs. Santa Claus
in person. Group singing will pro-
vide practice for those who will
participate in caroling during the
holidays.
Marilyn Flynn and Marie Hed-
rick are co-chairmen of the party.
Jean Boos is in charge of refresh-
meiits. Decorations chairman is
Betty Jane Auch. Entertainment
will be directed by Shirley Rich-
ardson.
