en, dressed as couples, cigarette
girls and clowns today for the last
day of campus ticket sales for the
"Frosh Weekend" dances.
Tickets will continue to be on
sale from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. in the
League, the Union, on the Diag
and in the Engine Arch. Latepur-
chasers may also buy tickets at
the door for the dances both
nights.
"Frosh Weekend" will high-
light this weekend's social calen-
dar of events with three days of
entertainment sponsored by fresh-
men women.
WEEKEND EVENTS will in-
clude two informal dances, one to
be presented today in the League
Ballroom by the Blue Team, and
one to be held tomorrow sponsored
by the Maize Team.

Also included in "Frosh Week-
end" festivities will be "Frosh
Fantasy," a fashion show to be
held at 3 p.m. Sunday in the
League Ballroom.

add to the atmosphere of "Com-

sponsored by the Maize Team to-

the Maize Team's decorations have
been upset, so the outcome may be
a little surprising.

chairman of the Blue Team,
Mary Muller is assistant chair-
man, Tracy Redfield is in
charge of floorshow entertain-
ment and is being assisted by
Helen Yeager.

COEDS SUMMONED--Law students Jack Reinhart and Art Prine
serve summonses on Karin Lindh and Barbara Sickels, ordering
them to appear at Crease Ball tonight.
Law Students PresentBall

Serving Coca-Cola
Serves Hospitality

Surrounded by traditional court-
room atmosphere, law students
will present their annual Crease
Ball from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m. tonight.
The lawyers, in true legal fash-
ion, have served summonses on
their dates, ordering them to ap-
pear at Crease Ball. The theme of
the semi-formal dance will center
around a satire of legal practices.
The theme will carry out a mate-
rialized play on law terms.
Crease Ball has a long, tradi-
tion-filled history, much of which

is based on the long-standing ri-
valry between the lawyers and the
engineers, who sponsor Slide Rule
Ball.
Music will be provided by Frank
Tinker's Union orchestra.
Women attending the dance
will be granted 1:30 a.m. permis-
sion. No corsages are to be worn.
Lorne MacDonald is general
chairman of Crease Ball. Chaper-
ons will be Prof. and Mrs. L. H.
Wright, Prof. and Mrs. C. Joiner
and Prof. and Mrs. A. F. Smith.

TIS WEEKEND will see a great influx of parents. especially moth-
ers, to campus town where they will be honored at house parties
and pre-Mother's Day celebrations.
The ZBT house will be filled to overflowing with 40 to 50 pairs'
of these watchful, loving eyes. The men have planned a banquet for
tomorrow evening to be followed by a Monte Carlo gambling party,
which will be for dates as well as family. A prize will be given tol
the largest money-holder.
MEN OF PHI GAMMA DELTA plan to initiate their mothers to
campus "spirits" by adjourning to a popular tavern at 4 p.m. tomor-
row.. After dinner at the chapter house, there will be a program
dance at which time Fiji sons will request the honor of signing for
dances on the mothers' programs.
After the Phi Gam mothers have retired in the evening, they
will be serenaded in true campus style. Following church on Sun-
day the mothers will be served a real home-cooked meal-away
from home-with no after-dinner dishes!
If one should see such strange sights as zebra-painted horses,
rainbow-colored goats, French poodles or baby alligators being led
across the threshold of the Sigma Chi house tomorrow night they
won't need a second guess to know that the Sig Brothers Circus
has come to town.
CANDY COTTON MACHINES, popcorn and candy-apple booths
will be tucked into various corners of the "Big Top." Sideshows,
including a magician act, a burlesque show, the tall man and the
fat man, complete with barkers, will add to the constant din.
Guests will come dressed as "kiddies" and the most ingenious
costume will gain its owner a real, live, baby alligator. Losers of
this cuddly prize may drown their sorrows in pink lemonade.
The SAE's Waterfront Dive will take the men and their dates
back to the days of the Barbary Coast. Costuming can range from
the cut-throat sailor's to the Diamond Jim top hat and tails. Art
Starr's five-piece combo will play mood music in an atmosphere of
sawdust and smoke.
TOMORROW NIGHT those who visit the Lambda Chi's Davy
Jones Locker may also find themselves on the better end of a "Strike
It Rich" theme. Sometime during the evening they will be presented
with the nautical $64 question, and to the winner will go wealth
untold.
Their spokesman said, "It will be the most knock-down-drag-
out affair since the Bikini test in the Pacific." The women, clad
in replicas of early-century bathing suits, will be presented with
seaweed corsages.
Tomorrow afternoon, a tea honoring the Kappa Alpha Theta
pledges will be the beginning of a big weekend for them. In the eve-
ning the girls and their dates will have dinner at the Stage Coach
Inn and then return to dance amidst a garden atmosphere to the
music of Del Elliot.
THE ZETA PSI'S will throw an Apache "Brawl" tomorrow eve-
ning at their "Lucky Pierre's Cafe." Slit skirts, T-shirts, bell-bottoms
and Apache doin's will be the theme of the night.
Preceding Crease Ball tonight the Phi Delta Phi's will give
a dinner for the members honoring the seniors and their dates.
This is to be followed by a record dance tomorrow from 9 p.m.
until midnight, and on Sunday with a charcoal broiled steak
dinner.
Winchell House plans to take over the generous facilities of the
Fresh Air Camp tomorrow from 2:30 until 10:30 p.m. Square dancing,
picnicing and baseball will be the reverse order of the day.
* * * *
THIS WEEKEND ALSO will bring another round of pledge for-
mals. "Flamingo Isle" will be the theme of the Alpha Gam formal
tonight which will be preceded by a dinner at the Allenel. Dancers
will find themselves amidst volcanoes, Budas and palm trees frolicing
to the strains of Doug Lent's music.
The KD's plan to hold their pledge formal tonight at the
home of Jan Nickelsen in Barton Hills. The girls will have dinner
at the League beforehand. Al Rice's orchestra will do the musical
honors.

Kill Shine
Something to cheer about is a
new liquid preparation which re-
moves shine from dresses, suits,
and coats. Just apply the liquids,
crisscrossing the shiny area; go
over it with an ordinary bristle
handbrush, then allow the mate-
rial to dry.
