FOOTBALL FROLIC:
Ann Arbor Set for Zany
Homecoming Weekend
By BOO KEITH
Another zany and traditionally
spectacular Homecoming celebra-
tion will be on tap here next week-
end when the Wolverines do battle
with the Wisconsin Badgers.
All sorts of activities have been
planned to provide students and
visiting alumni with a rousing
time from Friday night to the wee
hours Sunday morning.
The week-end bill will include
a big pre-game pep rally Friday
and the traditional Homecoming
Dance Saturday night. Adding
considerable color to the festivities
will be scores of displays set up by
housing groups throughout cam-
pus.
* * *
INITIAL preparations for the
affair are already underway, with
at least 66 dorms, fraternities, so-
rorities and co-ops concocting wit-
ty and wierd outdoor decorations.
Spirited students are going all
out to do a bang-up job. At least
one house has obtained raw ma-
terials by raiding lumber piles
at the new South Quad. Most
groups will enliven their dis-
plays with moving parts and in
a few cases smoke or running
water.
Judging will take place Saturday
morning and cups will go to win-
ning houses.
THIS YEAR'S Homecoming is
apparently the 53rd such occas-
sion in University history. The
event was inaugurated in 1897
when alumni foot-ballers came
home to play against the Varsity.
Display contests are more re-
cent. Fraternities started them be-
fore the first world war and in-
dependent houses' and dorms took
part for the first time in 1944.
That year is still a nightmare
to the feminine carpenters at
one particular sorority. The wo-
men built their display in the
basement and then found it was
too large to move outdoors.
Troubles of a different nature
upset the 1947 Homecoming. That
was the year Life magazine did
a spread on the fete. Everyone
here was excited over- the pros-
pects, but local pride quickly dis-
appeared when the magazine came
out showing a grinning coed witht
a cabbage on her head and a cou-
ple of thoroughly soused Wolver-
ine fans.
Welfare State
o Be Debated
At Assembly
"The Welfare State" will be the
topic of the symposium highlight-
ing the fourth annual high school
debate assembly which will meet
today in Lydia Mendelssohn The-
atre under the sponsorship of the
speech department.
The assembly, expected to draw
about 500 high-school students,
will begin at 9:30 a.m. with regis-
tration, followed at 10 a.m. by a
welcoming address by Haydenk
Carruth, manager of the Michigan
Forensic Association.
* * *
THE SYMPOSIUM on the wel-
fare state will begin at 10:15 a.m.
and will be followed by a question
period. Discussing the welfare state
will be Prof. Werner Landecker, of
the sociology department; Harold
Levinson, of the economics depart-
ment and Prof. Morgan Thomas, of
the political science department.
Ed Miller, director of forensics,
will discuss the problems of debat-
ing the welfare state question at
11:45 a.m.
A demonstration debate on the
welfare state will begin at 1:30
p.m. The debaters will be Lloyd
Kaiser and Sherwin Wine, affirm-
ative; Tom Murray and Marvin
Esch, negative.
The debate will be criticized by
Prof. William Sattler, of the speech
department.
'U' Band To
Perform in
New York
Traveling from the mud of Ferry
Field to the gridiron of Yankee
Stadium the University Marching
Band will exhibit its famed music-
al technique and precision march-
ing before the 67,000 football fans
gathered for the Michigan-Army
game today.
The band, which had practiced
for the show despite the rain early
this week, left Ann Arbor Thurs-
day morning on a special train.
* * C
THE BAND played at an alumni
pep rally last night. One forma-
tion practice session was held in
a Bronx park yesterday with the
final practice set for 11 a.m. to-
day.
Dressed in their blue and gold
uniforms the band will march
from the rehearsal to Yankee
Stadium, where they will put on
a pre-game performance.
The big show, however, will be
during half times Taking to the
field from the Yankee bull pen,
the band will salute today's foot-
ball opponents with a block "M"
and "ARMY."
THE BANDSMEN, 135 strong,
will then depict a visitor's impres-
sion of the nation's biggest city
in a special show prepared by
Prof. William ReVelli, conductor
of University bands, and assistant-
conductor Jack Lee.
The first formation, a horse
and buggy, will portray a figura-
tive stroll through Central Park.
Then to the tune of "How Dry
I Am" they will move into the
shape of 'an old fashioned water
pump symbolizing the recent water
shortage in New York.
PRECISION-MARCHING w i l1
take the next spotlight as the
band, in block formation, salutes
the Rockettes.
Moving out of the block the
bandsmen will form two para-
chutes symbolizing the amuse-
ments at Coney Island.
The final formation will be a
diagonal USA with the Statue of
Liberty in,the center.

bomber Aid
To Veterans
Completed
The last 24 Bomber Scholar-
ships, amounting to $100 each,
have been awarded, according to
Dean Erich A. Walter.
This year's award brings to a
total of 254 the number of scholar-
ships granted from the bomber
fund. It was started in 1942 to
provide financial assistance for
veterans who attended the Univer-
sity at the end of the war.
THE PLAN provided that a part
of the receipts from campus social
functions would be donated to a
fund which would be invested in
United States War Bonds.
The original goal of the plan
was to purchase enough bonds to
buy an Army bomber; thus the
name "Bomber Scholarships"
was suggested.
A total of $25,400 has been
awarded from the original $22,500
investment coupled with the in-
terest.
RECIPIENTS of the award, who
are all veterans, are:
John D. Boenke, '51; Paul B.
Brace, '51A; Robert O. Burns, '51

FIRE HAZARD-However interesting the .book might be, Judy
Raub, '51, is committing a major faux pas in the matter of fire
ettiquet. In case the engraving is cloudy, that's a cigarette in her
right hand.

Careless use of cigarettes, par-
ticularly in bed, is an excellent
way to shorten one's life expect-
ancy, Ann Arbor Fire Chief Ben
Zahn warned as National Fire Pre-
vention Week drew to a close.
Smoking in bed and near com-
bustible fluids along with careless
disposal of cigarettes probably
causes a majority of home fires
SRA Retreat
BeginsToday
Activities sponsored by the Stu-
dent Religious Association for the
weekend will include an intercul-
tural retreat and an interguild
workshop.
Those going on the retreat will
leave Lane Hall at 5 p.m. today
for the Detroit Recreational Camp
to spend a weekend of discussion
and social activities among people
of different cultural backgrounds.
Students and faculty members will
air problems of current mutual in-
terest.
Crisfer on Radio
The University will receive dou-
ble honors tonight when Prof. H.
0. Crisler, head of the athletic
department, will appear on the
radio broadcast, "20 Questions,"
at 8 p.m. and Vaughn Monroe will
salute the University with the
playing of "The Victors" at 7:30
p.m.
in the United States, which this
year will claim nearly 7,000 men,
women and children, he revealed.
* * w
TO COMBAT the cigarette men-
ace in Ann Arbor, there is a city
ordinance against smoking in bed
in hotels, rooming houses and
other transient residences. .
"I've seen people sent to jail
for violating this law," observed
Zahn.
He said there were less than a
dozen fires reported in student
residences last year, none of them
major, and attributed the good
record to an inspection system
maintained by the city engineer's
office and the University.
ON THE NATIONAL SCENE,
however, the picture is not so
bright, he added. Underwriters'
statistics show that fire strikes
more than 400,000 homes each
year. That means that every 90.
seconds, day and night, an Ameri-
can home is struck by fire, causing
an estimated total loss of more
than $260,000,000 annually.
And nearly all of the fires
could be prevented through the
exercise of a little common sense,
Zahn emphasized.
He cited four simple rules, which
-if followed, would greatly reduce
the incidence of firerindomestic
residences:
1. Do not smoke near combusti-
bles.
2. Do not smoke in bed.
3. Keep electrical equipment and
wires in good repair, and avoid
overloading circuits; a penny in
a fuse box can cost a fortune.
4. Use cleaning fluids which are
non-explosive.
