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. Accounting Parley The 25th annual Michigan Ac- counting Conference, sponsored by the business administration school, will open tomorrow in Rackham Lecture Hall. OPTICAL SERVICE CAMPUS OPTICIANS 222 Nickels Arcade Phone 2-9116 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 BAd; Theodore Chapekis, '52 E; Lawrence M. DeVore, '52; Robert F. Dyche, '51; Myrl C. Gilchrist, Jr., '51E; William W. Gordinier, Jr., '51; Stuart A.

In case the engraving is cloudy, that's a cigarette in her right hand. Local Fire Chief Wrns Try FOLLETT'S First USED BOOKS at BARGAIN* PRICES 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. * s Why worry about the safety of your money while traveling? Travel in Peace. Buy trave- ler's checks. Buy them at the Ann Arbor Bank.
