Ancient Myth To Be Theme
Of Traditional Caduceus Ball

v-

"The Temples of Aesculapius,"
ancient Greek and Roman god
famed for his powers of healing,
will furnish the setting for the an-
nual Caduceus Ball to be held
from 9:30 p.m. to 1 a.m. Friday at
the Union.
Sponsored by Galens, honorary
medical society, the all-campus
seni-formal dance is given es-
pecially for medical students and
members of the University Hos-
pital staff.
Medical students will find much
of the early history of their pro-
fession in the theme. In the days
when medicine was closely asso-
ciated with mysticism, the ancient
Greeks and Romans believed that
those who slept in the sacred
temples of Aesculapius would be
cured of their ills.

The temples of the god, the son
of Apollo, were marked with the
caduceus, a rod entwined with
snakes, now familiar as the em-
blem of the Army Medical Corps.
Students and faculty members
will find more cheerful surround-
ings, however, than those of the
old temple. Frank Tinker's orches-
tra will provide the musical side.
Formerly held on the night be-
fore Washington's birthday, Ca-
duceus Ball is now traditionally
held on the Friday following the
holiday.
Women will be granted 1:30 a.-
m. permission.
Tickets may be purchased from
members of the Galens Society or
at the Galens newstand on the
first floor of University Hospital,
between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m.

Candy, Sweets
To Decorate
Assembly_ Ball
"Kandy Kingdom, " mythica'
land of the sweets, will be paid
visit by dancers at the annual As-
sembly Ball to be presented fronr
9 p.m. to 1 a.m., Friday, March 2
at the Union.
Tickets for the girl bid dance
given by and for independent wo-
men, will go on sale today at all
women's residences and in the
lobby of the League.
WOMEN LIVING in league
houses and in Ann Arbor resi-
dences may purchase their tickets
in the lobby of the League from
9 a.m. to noon and from 1 to 5
p.m. every day starting today.
Representatives of. Assembly
will also be selling tickets to
residents of the dormitories.
Each hall has a quota of tick-
ets to be sold, and for that rea-
son the number will be limited.
Following the theme of the
dance, the decorations willabound
with gingerbread men and houses,
lollipops and candy kisses. Music
fitting the atmosphere will be pro-
vided by Frank Tinker and his
Orchestra.
