titlbd "Autumn Maize" the dance

DECORATIONS ARE b e i n g
planned to give the room an at-
mosphere of the crisp autumn days
whichV.4re prevailing in Ann Ar-
bor:
the bandstand will be covered
h leaves and other fall signs
of bright autumnal hues, and
over the entire roam will shine
li light of a harvest moon.
-_As. another. sign of the season
eider will be served to the dancers
for refreshment.
CLAUDE THORNHILL and his
otchestra will set the musical
mnood or the event, with Russ Mc-
1by4re and the Snowflakes fea-
ttied vocalists.
Thornhill, who is reputed to
be onreof the oustanding mu-
slievAns bf -the year, has a life of
musical experience behind him.
At the age of six he gave his
..st reoital, and from that time
96 ~he Iasdevoted his time and.
effort to music.
His first interest was in the con-
ceit field, but he soon began to di-
r. his talents -along the lines of
modern dance music.
DURING HIS TIME in the Navy
while he directed the Navy's musi-
cal- aggregation, the Rangers, he
Inmproved and developed his style.
Upon hisreturn to civilian life he
organizedhis own orchestra with
which-he is now touring the coun-
try.
His music is planned to appeal
t:. almost everyone. For those
*IiMo like it slow and dreamy, he
* has the latest numbers, and he

also features the best of the hot
and jumping music.
The dance is to be a dressy, in-
formal event. Women are asked
not to wear- flowers.
Late permission is being granted
for women students tomorrow
night.
Tickets for the dance may be
purchased at the Administration
Building, at the ticket booth on
the diagonal or from any Student
Legislature member. The price is
$3.60.
According to Hugh Greenberg,
general chairman of the dance,
"It's the 'Dance of the Year', so
for the time of the year, don't
miss it."
Women Given
ExpertAdvice
So many articles, books and fea-
tures have been written about the
weaker sex, that if attempts were
made to read them all, women
wouldhave time for little else.
There always seem to have been
comments about the way they
walk, talk and dress.
MALES HAVE often voiced their
aversion to women covering their
legs with trousers or long skirts,
smoking through long cigarette
holders, and painting their lips
and nails a ruby red.
When these opinions are aired
vocally, woman is tempted to
completely ignore them, but
when faced with a page of print
she is apt to let assignments go
unfinished, dishes unwashed and
professional tasks negleoted.
Fewer' articles are written on
men, for the members of the male
sex would prefer to scoff at such
ridiculous accusations as being
lazy and always broke. Further-
more they never seem to suffer a
doubt as to their position in so-
ciety and durability.
,* *
AS YET, no one, has written a
book or literary work entitled
"Men Are Here To Stay." They all
seem to feel that every male is ir-
resistible without the use of mouth
wash and hair oil.
In the meantime, women
spend their lives - progressing
through the stages of heels, pin
curls and argyle socks.
When at last man relents to be-
stowing a proposal, a woman has
to undergo a sudden conversion
from a decorative article tor chief
cook, accountant, sock darner and
chauffeur.

GIFTS FOR CHRISTMAS -Newberryites, Marilyn Campbell,
Mary Ann Beatson, and Roberta MacGregor, put the finishing
touches on their Christmas package. The gifts were purchased and
wrapped early so they would reach Newberry's war orphan in
Greece by December 25.

Christmas shopping in Ann Ar-
bor began early this year.
As part of a dormitory and sor-
ority sponsored plan, manyhouses
on campus have already purchased
yuletide gifts for war orphans ov-
erseas. The orphans are European
children who no longer have fam-
ilies to care for them adequately.

AN AGENCY in New York, the

Through contact with the

BowlingClub
"Hurrah! It's a strike!"
Such is often the jubilant cry
heard among bowling enthusiasts.
Those who wish to practice and
improve their bowling technique
and also those who are beginners
and desire to gain knowledge of
the sport and its scoring will find
that the WAA Bowling Club holds,
these opportunities.

BARBARA KRAUSE, Bowling
Club manager, intends this year
that the club will "promote friend-
ship between the independent and
affiliated women in the club be-
sides, developing skill and interest
in bowling itself."
To provide competition, the
club will be organized into
teams. These will consist of four
players including a captain
whose job it will be to get the
score sheets to the manager.
Club activities will stretch over
a seven week period beginning
Monday.

In many instances it is the
child's only source of clothing and
extra food.
LETTERS TO and from the
child are translated in New York
and add a personal touch to the
charitable project.
Typical are the orphans which
Helen Newberry Residence and
Betsy Barbour House have
adopted.
Newberry's foster child for two
years has been Antonio Tsalopou-
lou, a 12 year old Greek girl whose
father was killed during the war.
Her only means of support is her
mother and the Foster Child Plan.

THIS YEAR instead of sending
one large gift, each resident of
Newberry bought small gifts and
wrapped them individually.
Such things as candy, tooth
paste, and combs were sent, in
addition to clothes.

School Spirit-
Invades' Union
"Beat Wisconsin" is a slogan
that will carry over to the Union
dance, to be held immediately fol-
lowing the pep rally until mid-
night today at the Union.
Decorations will carry out the
atmosphere of school spirit. A
mural over the bandstand will de-
pict Michigan's superiority over
Wisconsin. It will show a robust
heroic Michigan athlete, partak-
ing of milk while his Wisconsin
counterpart languishes in the
background consuming beer.
The dance, the Union commit-
tee says, will be "very informal."
Sweaters and skits or jeans will be
appropriate attire.
Entertainment will be provided
by Jay Mills, master of ceremon-
ies, and Virginia Robinson, who
will give a monologue.
Frank Tinker's orchestra will
provide the musical atmosphere
for the dance.
