Ticket Sales
To Commence
For IFC Ball
All May Buy Entry
To 'Heaven and Hell;'
Harry James To Play
Tickets for IFC Ball will go on
sale in the fraternity houses to-
day.
A limited number of tickets has
been sent to the president of each
house. Those which are not sold
by April 29, will be returned to
the ticket committee and will be
put on sale in the Administra-
tion Building to independent men.
* * *
BESIDES THE tickets returned
from the fraternities, a definite
number of tickets have been set
aside for the independent sales.
The dance will be held from
9 p.m. to 1 a.m. Friday, May 11,
in the IM Building.'
It will be "Heaven and Hell" for
those who attend the dance, and
"devils and angels" will hover
around the couples.
THE "OTHER WORLD" will set
the mood for the dance, and the
idea will be carried out in the
"Heavenly" and "Hellish" decora-
tions.
Fluffy white clouds and angels
will reign in the peaceful realm
of heaven, while on the other
side of the room, the fire and
brimstone of Satan's domain
will make things "hot."
Booths will be set up for the
fraternities, but this year they
will be built by an IFC commit-
tee, rather than by the individual
fraternities.
There will be a separate booth
for independent men.
Harry James, the man with the
horn, will provide the musical
background for the dance.
His band is best-known for its
swing, but it also features the
best in smooth, slow music.

Wars Demand
Role Changes
On Homefront
By SIJETLA COHEN
In every war the loneliness and
frustration of the vast army of{
home-front women present almost
as many problems in morale as do
the armies away from home.
But no longer will women be
left to cope with their anxieties
alone, thanks to the services of;
experts in psychology, sociology,
industry, government, philosophy,
and religion, who have solutions;
to suggest, though they may not
always be easy to apply.
IN PAST ERAS the woman's
role was one of household chores
and passive waiting. This is no
longer true, with so much to be
done on the home front, such as
jobs in war industry and the host
of volunteers needed by the Red
Cross, the Office of Civilian De-
fense and the U.S.O.
The picture ,is not a bright
one; yet it can be made bright-
er, after the initial hurt of the
men's leaving has given way to
sensible analysis and planning.
Wives who manage to adopt a
positive attitude and hang on to
it have found the separation a
chance to become acquainted with
themselves, and to develop inde-
pendence and a richer personality.
* * * .
OUR EXPERIENCES in the
last war have shown that the wo-
men soldiers of the home army
have a clear-cut campaign all
mapped out for them.
The first campaign objective
isato help in every way possible
and practical to win the war by
strengthening the home front.
Secondly those at home may act
as morale officer to at least one
soldier through letters and gift
parcels.
Lastly one may keep up a never-
ending campaign of self - im-
provement for width of interests
and warmth of heart and for
greater patience and greater cap-
acity for love.
Opposed to this operation are
four ,insidious fifth columnists
of the mind: self-pity, unreason-

"Slow down that atomic pace!",
recently warned Clara Reisner,
Fifth Avenue and Hollywood cos-
metologist.
Miss Reisner said that tomor-
row's grandmothers will not com-
pare with today's grandma glam-
our girls unless women slow down
their continually fast living pace,
"THE TERRIFIC TEMPO of
these days is against feminine
beauty," stated Miss Reisner, who
has been watching wrinkles de-
velop on some of the country's
best known glamour girls' and
movie stars.
"The women of today are the
first generation who know what
fast tempo can do to them,"
Miss Reisner said. "There is no
previous experience to show
what continued fatique and
tension do to a woman'seface,"
the added.
Miss Reisner said that everyday
she observes signs of this tension,

Miss Reisner added that if wo-
men would only sit down and take
stock of themselves that this bleak
picture, which is enough to bring
even more lines of worry to a wo-
man's face, can be brightened.
"They must learn to relax, toI
search for the inner security that
will help them become serene
grandmothers," Miss Reisner ad-
vised.
She continued that women will
have to set aside a regular time
fo exercise and beauty care, be-
cause it seems that more and more
women will be holding down jobs
at the same time they are raising
children.
"There is a definite trend for
women to come back after 40,"
the beauty expert added, referring
to the glamour publicity of Glo-
ria Swanson, Marlene Dietrich,
Joan Bennett and Mary Astor
"But you can't reach 40 and then
decide you want to be young
again. You have to keep young,"
Miss Reisner warned,
