Union To Hold
Women Need Good Judgment
To Solve Decorating Problems
By JEAN RUSS
Many coeds today are faced with
the problem of managing a home
and, even if it is a one-room flat,
there is still the problem of deco-
ration, often on a limited budget.
The trouble with most women
who set out to decorate the fam-
ily homestead is that they try too
hard. The average hausfrau starts
out to select new furnishings in
a daze, bedazzled by pictures in
magazines and confused by con-
flicting advice 'from well-meaning
friends.
With admiration for Louis XIV
and Swedish Modern, French Pro-
Panhel To Hold
Mass Meeting
For Rushees
Panhellenic Association will hold
a brief compulsory meeting for all
prospective rushees at 8 p.m.
Thursday in Rackham Anrhi-
theat re.
Chr stine Blair, rushing secre-
tary of Panhellenic, will explain
details of the Michigan rushing
system to all those interested in
rushing during the second semes-
ter.
Eligibility rules will be explained
so that there will be no question
as to what will be required at
rushing registration. The expenses
of a sorority will be discussed.
Rushing indbooks will be dis-
tributed to all those present at
this meeting.
Registration Procedure will be
explained fully by the rushing
chairmen.
vincial and American Colonial, she
usually ends up in a heap some-
where in between in no-man's
land. Often the trouble stems
from an atte.npt to reproduce a
room pictured in a favorite publi-
cation down to the last tieback,
without stopping to consider how
it fits the needs of her own family.
"PEOPLE DON'T buy a house
or furniture often enough to know
how to go about it. They get so
much advice they are dizzy," re-
ports Dan Cooper, well-known de-
signer of home furnishings.
Perhaps it would be a good
idea to keep these suggestions in
mind if ever faced with the
problem of planning a house:
Lots of parties demand a living}
room that encourages sociability,
with furniture arranged to accom-
modate groups of people; plenty
of coffee tables, serving tables,
and such.
THE "HERMIT" type, who en-
joys reading and music will plan
in a different manner. The most
comfortable chair and the best
light will be conveniently situated
near the bookshelves for pleasant
browsing.
Windows and artificial light-
ing will be arranged to give the
best light for the piano.
No particular room will be set
aside for dining with meals served
informally in the living room or
kitchen. The extra space can be
used for a library or music room.
Common sense is more practical
than current decorator's patter in
planning a home, After all, who's
going to live in it?-not the man
next door!
Yearly
Bluebook
Ball Saturday
Each semester when final exam-
inations roll around, the Union
holds its traditional Bluebook Ball.
This semester the dance is being
held from 9 p.m. to midnight Sat-
urday in the Union Ballroom..
The purpose of such a gay af-
fair at such a "blue" time is to
bring needed relief to those shat-
tered nerves. A few hours of re-
laxation through dancing should
be just what the doctor would
ordter.
So that dancers' minds will
not stray too far from the time#
at hand, a huge bluebook will
be mounted over the band-
stand. The walls of the ball-
room will be covered with repli-
cas of the traditional classrooin
blackboard.
Regular sized blbooks will find
th-nselves in a new capaMcity whe
they are hung crouid the ball-
room from ovrhead streamers.
As an added attraction, prizes will
be given away during intermission.
Frank Tinker and his orches-
tra will be on hand to provide
the soothing dance mnusie neces-
sary to carry thoughts to "fjr '*j
away lade'."
General chlairn a o Ithe dan e
is Ted Smith. Ass itiug him will
be Irv Barill, Richard Cossitt, lkob-
ert Graham, Robert Greager and
William Race.
according to Virginia Campbell,
general chairman.

talks by committee chairmen to
explain the work that each com-
mittee does. Miss Ethel MacCor-
mick will also speak. Work on all
