orthy Profit
Coeds who make purchases at
orm candy-booths are helping to
well the Assembly Displaced Per-
rns Fund at the same time they
re helping themselves to a va-
jety of confections.
By a recent amendment to the
eague constitution,; the proceeds
rom these booths may be trans-
erred to any student organization
elected by the League Undergrad-
ate Council. Profits, which have
ormerly gone to the Fresh Air
lamp, will go to the Displaced
'ersons Fund from now on.
The League Council voted to
hange the name of the committee
a charge of the booths to Special
rojects Committee. Previously it
as been called the Benefit Drives
omrpittee.
Last semester the booths yielded
profit of $402.69. Helen New-
erry had the highest per cent of
ales based on the number of resi-
ents.
There are booths in all of the
omen's dorms except the new

Glee Club,I

THE LUCKY TEN ACTS chosen
for the show by the judging com-
mittee of Bob Perrin, represent-
ing the Union, Morris, the Glee
Club and Jackie Reid, the League
will have the chance at $175
worth of prizes. Winners will be
chosen by audience applause reac-
tion and professional talent scouts
may be on hand.
Although auditions will be
heard at any time during the
Saturday tryout period, audi-
tioners are urged to make a pre-
vious appointment by calling
the Union Student Affairs of-
fice or Bob Perrin, 4211.
Pianists and vocal numbers are
especially requested by the judg-
ing committee which will be in
charge of the final Saturday try-
out.
THROUGH UNION and League
co-operation this talent show will
also establish the basis for a
permanent talent file, to be set up
by the two.
Open to any group, individual,
or organization desiring talent or
entertainment, the file will be
started with thehnames of all
those who audition for the va-
riety show.
The purpose. of this perma-
nent record will be to make stu-
dent talent known and avail-
able to campus and off-campue
groups; and to give talented stu-
dents a chance for professional
appearances.
Additional feature of the spring
variety show is the naming con-
test. As yet the, show is nameless,
but students with enlightening
name suggestions should mail
their idea to the Union Student
Offices by Sunday.
Practical prizes for the winner
will be a year's subscription to
The Daily and the Gargoyle and
a 1949 Ensian.
The idea of the combination tal-
ent file grew out of the practice
of both Union and League hav-
ing separate files. The purpose of
the files was to supply talent for
their intermission dance enter-
tainments. The talent committee
of the Leage is a temporary com-
mittee which is replacing the for-
mer Ballroom Committee.
