Delta Chi's
Take Jaunt
To SkidRow
By PAT BROWNSON
Derelicts evacuauing Detroit's
Skid Row apparently stopped for
a brief rest at Delta Chi fraternity
Saturday night where they found
a reproduction of their former
haunts on Michigan Avenue.
Guests entering the basement
slum district found Delta Chi's
Detroit annex - a disreputable
looking flophouse.
Next door was Albie's Burlesque
Theatre which had been closed on
closed on orders of the Vice Squad.
Pin-ups of featured entertainers
still decorated the boards outside.
A combination barbershop and
poolroom stood next door to Dad's
Bar where bums could drown their
sorrows with cider, cokes and
spudnuts. Nearby was a pawn shop
to give down-and-outers an oppor-
tunity to swap superfluous posses-
sions for small cash.
Although a branch of the city
jail was just around the corner the
tramps wasted no time in patron-
izing the Taxi Dance establish-
ment. A four-piece combo fur-
nished the musical side.
The Salvation Army, located
nearby, was offering free soup af-
ter the evening services.
Intermission entertain-
ment staged by members of the
house took the form of a street
revival complete with testimonials
from those who had mended their
wicked ways.

Long History

Dames Group
Babysitting pappies!
That's the result at least once
a month when the Michigan
Dames get together.
A student wives group which
has been in existence since 1914
when it boasted some 21 members,
the club now has an annual mem-
bership of 250 to 300 members. The
club was originally called the As-
sociation of Student's Wives, but
the name was changed in 1915 to
the Michigan Dames.
A member of the National As-
sociation of UniversityDames, the
Michigan chapter, when it joined
in 1921, was the fourth University
sponsored student wives group to
receive its charter. A member of
the Michigan Dames may join the
corresponding chapter in- another
University if her husband should
transfer.
A general meeting is held on the
second Tuesday of each month. In
addition, there are eight interest
groups-

fish group will meet at 9 p.

By MARYLIN KLAFER
Some of my most profound phil-
osophical lessons have been
learned on the Diag.
Take the other day for instance.
I was walking leisurely down the
Diag in between rush hours. Lop-
ing along in front of me were two
Michigan men.
I quickly decided that the old
saying about "the tenth one
goes to Michigan" definitely ap-
plied. In fact, in this case, the
ninth one also was in atten-
dance.
Not that college men are expect-
ed to look as if they had just
stepped out of an ad in Esquire.
But even the leanest allowance
permits trousers and jackets a visit
to the cleaners every fewyears or
so. Suggestion: blue jeans may be
worn in the interim.
Not only had these students
deprived the cleaning establish-
ments of patronage, but it was
all obvious that the local shoe-
repairers and barbershops were
suffering in like manner.
As most women agree, some men
take on a virile, he-man appear-
ance when they forego a daily
shave in favor of making an eight
o'clock. Unfortunately, these two
were -ot quite the type. It looked
very much as if they both had a
full week of eight o'clocks or just
couldn't summon the strength to
wield a razor early in the day.
I smirked mentally, wonder-
ing how they would be received
as blind dates.
I soon discovered that the two-
some was carrying on a spirited
observation all their own. Evident-
I' -----____ ____ ____ ____ ____
ly they were much amused by
something or someone just ahead
of them. I peered beyond them to
see the object of their jeers.
* * *
Breezing along in the general
direction of the Library was an
ultra-stylishly clad coed. From
the looks of things her attire
had been carefully calculated to
reflect fashion trends from the
past five years. According to her
rear view critics she had not
been too successful in her com-
bination.
She was enveloped in an ankle
length, flaring greatcoat with a
hood hanging in back. Her locks,
decidedly unshorn, streamed out
behind her along with the strands
of a bright colored scarf tied under
her collar.
It was almost impossible to
make out any trace of a leg
above the top of her floppy loaf-
ers but occasional gusts of wind
assuranced me that she was
wearing socks . . . . high white,
bobby variety. She clutched an
armful of bulky books which
added the general confusion of
her mien, and a line of dangly
gold bracelets lined her left
arm.
The Michigan men were having
a hilarious time snickering and
imitating the unknown coed. What
irony thought I! I began to reflect
on a few words written long ago
by BobbieBurns which seemed so
applicable to the incident . .
something about seeing ourselves
as others see us.
I still wonder.. . who was walk-
ing behind me???
