n _ ::THE MICHIGAN DAILY Sig Ep-ATO Annual Tug War To Rage Across Huron River; Losers Will Provide Christmas Tree for Stron gest Team 4'* * * * * * * C.: Picnic, Softball Game Will dimaxFestivities By JO KETTLEHUT Cooks at the ATO and Sig Ep houses have been working extra hard during the past week in at- tempting to fatten up the men with huge steaks and vitamin- loaded vegetables. The idea behind this all-out ef- fort to build muscles and increase strength is the annual ATO-Sig * Ep tug of war. Thirty of the big-.>;; gest and brawniest men from each house will wtake sides across the f nuron tomorrow afternoon for .: the battle. ASSOCIATED PRESS P C5 "THE GREAT BIG hairy chest- ed men" will attempt to snatch away the title of champion rope pullers from the Sigma Phi Ep- silons who have been winners for the past two years. They can suc- ceed by dragging the Sig Eps in- to the Huron in two pulls out of three. The whole idea of the tug of war began two years ago when a major controversy arose over Christmas trees. Such questions as "what happened to the ATO tree" and whose tree did the Sig Eps have?" caused quite a confusion which was further in- creased when several other houses on campus became in- volved. The ATO's and Sig E's, how- ever, decided to settle the issue by having a tug of war every spring. The loser of the battle must provide a Christmas tree for the winning house the next year. The tree is later donated to the hospital. * THE RIVALRY between the two houses has become so great over the tug that the men on each side get together for practice be- fore the event. TUG O' WAR... Biggest and brawniest members of the Sig ED and ATO fraternities vie in annual battle. Loser of the fray will supply next year's Christmas tree for the winning house. Losers also get a dunking in the -Juron River. so eager to win the pull that they studied a book on the strategy of war games. It must have proved a worthwhile idea as, although outweighed that year, they won easily.' A picnic for the two houses will also take place in the afternoon and evening tomorrow. Softball, games and refreshments are a part of the day's activities. Wyvern The names of three sopho- more women tapped by Wyvern society, were erroneously left out of the list printed Wednes- day. They are: Diana Lahde, Joan Mintzer and Sally Fish. APPROXIMATELY 250 people, including ATO's, Sig Eps and their dates, are expected to at- tend the picnic which will begin at 2 p.m. The rope pull will take place at 5:30 p.m. Through it all, the two houses have remained the best of friends.I They shared the same booth at the IFC Ball this year and have had many parties together. Merit- tutorial ProvidesAiJ Last minute help before finals may be obtained in the Merit- tutorial Undergraduate Office of the League before the end of this week, said Marian Larson chair- man of Merit-tutorial. The committee, which has been giving student aid for this semes- ter, is closing this week. Tutoring has been offered to men and women on campus in all subjects. The charge for this help is 75 cents per hour. The Merit-tutorial office con- tains activity records, tutoring files, and an information cata- logue. Besides assigning tutors to help students, the committee also has a merit system to keep a record of all the coed activities on campus.

One year the Sig Eps were Vacationing Coeds May Find Varied Opportunities for Jobs Now that spring is here and mid-terms are over, many coeds are begining to think of what they're going to do with three months of free time. This vacation time is a welcome relief to many study-weary stu- 41, dents, as well as an excellent op- portunity for exploring, learning and turning classroom theory in- to practice. SUMMER JOBS vary in oppor- tunity. Some will mean money in the bank, some will mean room and board-and fun, most will give pin money, and many offer nothing but experience. Many coeds are headed for beach and resort jobs this sum- mer to .combine profit with play. Off duty, students use the re- creational facilities open to em- ployees, which may include swimming, horse-back riding, fishing, and hiking. Most open- ings for the inexperienced are jobs as waitress, maids, or kitchen helpers. Journalism majors might wel- come a job on a weekly small- town paper, for the valuable prac- tical experience. * * * SOME COEDS pick the public library to learn about people and books. Library jobs include cleri- cal chores, or painting posters and working on exhibits for those with an artistic touch. Hospitals are still under- staffed, which means job open- ings for volunteers, especially good for students who plan to make hospital work their ca- reer. The greatest needs gener- ally are for ward and clinic aids, clerical workers, typists, lab and dietitians' aids, and secretaries. For the coed with a steady hand, and good balance, a position of waitress on the lake and river lines may be chosen. This job af- foirds scenic beauty plus pin money. VACATIONERS who are handy with a camera will probably head for a photographic summer posi- tion. Most openings will be found as a photographer's assistant or dark room technician. Other openings might be found as a photographer coun- selor in summer camps or as advisory consultant and record- ing photographer for guests at a vacation hotel. For students who plan to travel and explore, the American Youth Hostel trips to Europe offer fine opportunities for job experience. Students help to repair dam- aged hotels in France, Germany and Holland as well as hosteling in Scandinavia, the British Isles, the Balkans, or southwestern Eu- rope. This also provides a chance to view international living.
