Theme for Slide-Rule Ball
Is Announced by Committee
The newly appointed Slide Rule
Ball committee has announced
that the theme of this year's ball
will be the "Good Old Days."
In "the good old days" Crease
Ball, the Lawyer's dance and Slide
Rule Ball were held on the same
night. In continuation of the feud
between the two groups, which
dates back to the 1890's, the
"grease-coated" engineers and the
"crease trousered" lawyers would
go all out to break up the rival
dance.
Beginning in 1930, the Lawyers
JUNIOR DUES
Junior class dues will be co'l-
lected tomorrow through Fri-
day in the various women's resi-
dences. All junior women must
pay the dues in order to partici-
pate in Junior Girls' Play.
Women who are not contact-
ed this week may pay their dues
at a booth which will be set up
* later.
attempted the theft of the giant
slide rule, which was the pride
and joy of the engineers, then re-
taliating with a vengeance, en-
gineers gave defenseless lawyers
a taste of chemical warfare. An
unidentified visitor crawled into
the heating conduits of the Law
Club, and inserted some asphixiat-
ing bombs.
This year will mark the twenty-
first anniversary of the first Slide
Rule Ball, held in 1928. It will be
one of the best and biggest, said
Al Forman, publicity chairman of
the Slide Rule Ball committee.
Other committee members are:
Lexie Herrin, chairman; Tom Bas-
sett, tickets; Jim Graham and
Paul Fromm, decorations; Walter
Oberdit, decorations; Bob Giglio,
business manager; and Dick
Humes, music.
The date of the ball has not
been announced but it will prob-
ably be held some time this month,
Forman said.
Coeds May Join
Badminton Club
"Badminton-minded coeds who
would like to have some real fun,
practice and instruction still have
the opportunity to join the Bad-
minton Club," said Anne O'Con-
ner, manager of the club.
Members meet at 7:15 p.m. every
Wednesday in Waterman Gym.
Instruction is provided for be-
ginners and practice offered for
those who are already acquainted
with the sport. Miss Smeltzer is
on hand to assist the club's mem-
bers.
The club has only one organiza-
tional meeting in the fall although
the badminton season will con-
tinue into the spring semester for
about six weeks. Members who
remain in the club during both
the spring and fall seasons, how-
ever, will receive participation
points for two terms.
The organizational meeting was
held last week and numerous plans
were made for the coming season.
These included club and all-cam-
pus tournaments, a coed night
when university men will have a
chance to exhibit their skill at
swinging a racquet and a tourna.-
ment with the Michigan State
Normal badminton players. The
club also plans to have several
parties during the season.
Members may rent racquets and
birds from the WA.B if they do not
have their own.
Wools, Jerseys, Ve
Soft wools, velvets and jerseys
held the spotlight for daytime
wear in the recent showing of a
famous fashion collection in New
York.
Outstanding among afternoon
attire was a sleek molded-to-the-
hip bodice employed in a black
wool above a skirt of unpressed
folds, twin rows of tiny buttons
running from the small high col-
lar to the hip yoke.
A remarkably inexpensive wool
jersey of palest champagne sport-
ed a touch of real leopard in a
tab on the belt. The fullness of
the skirt was concentrated in the
front, the high neck slit and
sleeves pushed-up.
Black velvet appeared in a red-
ingote effect with an inset of taf-
feta fanning into a godet of pleats.
Flaps of the same fabric flared into
cuffs at the hip pockets.
1vets Featured in Daytime Wear
Several of the necklines were
accented with collars -of double
folds. A deep red tissue faille
had a small high double collar,
the slim skirt manipulated from
the hips into two front flowing
panels.
A slender cocoa faille was set
off by a diagonal closing at both
bodice and skirt, curving on the
bodice from the off-center collar
to under one arm.

Applying pressure, in the hope
of receiving invitations to Pan-J
hellenic's girl-bid ball, fraternity
men donned signboards last Thurs-
day and picketed the Sigma Delta
Tau house:
Among the pleas expressed on
the signs were "I'm frantic - I
haven't been asked to Peter's Pan-
ic," "I may not be a belle, but I
want to go to Panhel" and "For
you I'd fall, if you asked me to
Panhel Ball."
Ray McKinley and his orches-
tra will supply the music for
"Peter's Panic," which will be
held from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m. Friday,
Nov. 11 at the I-M Building.
Decorators will create a circus
atmosphere by transforming the
bandstand into a musical merry-
go-round. Sorority and assembly
booths will be marked by card-
board animals bearing the names
of each house.
Center of attraction at any cir-
cus, the ring, will form a patron's
booth at "Peter's Panic."
Patrons include Governor and
Mrs. G. M. Williams, President
and Mrs. A. G. Ruthven, Dean A.
C. Lloyd, Dean and Mrs. E. A.
Walter, Dean and Mrs. W. B. Rea,
Dean and Mrs. C. H. Peake, Pro-
fessor and Mrs. A. W. Bromage
and Dean E. R. Fuller.
The list continues with Profes-
sor and Mrs. R. C. Hussey, Pro-
fessor and Mrs. P. W. Slosson,
Professor and Mrs. W. D. Revelli,
Professor and Mrs. G. H. Forsyth,
Jr., Professor and Mrs. L. W.
