Coed Conducts Unusual Research
* * *
By GAYLE GREENE
Whether or not a University
coed receives more phone calls on
rainy days than on clear days has
been the subject of a research ex-
periment by Joan Nelson, '52.
"One conclusion my roommate
and I have reached is that show-
ers indoors and not outdoors are
the deciding factor in the number
of phone calls which we receive
from members of the opposite
sex," Miss Nelsoa reported yes-
terday.
* * *
"THE FIRST four weeks we
counted an average of .9 phone
calls per shower," she explained.
"To combat this we have been
taking tub baths in our room,"
she added.
The research began last fall
when she and her roommate ran
out of knitting -yarn and had
nothing to do in the evening.
They went to work making col-
ored charts on which to tabu-
late their phone calls.
The research came to a toa-
porary halt in the spring when
Miss Nelson became pinned to a
fraternity man.
*' * *
"HE NEVER called, rain or
shine," she explained, "so it no
longer seemed necessary to con-
tinue the experiment."
In the interest of science,
however, she has decided to con-
tinue the research hoping in
addition to determine whether
fraternity or independent men
are more apt to call on rainy
days.
A psychology professor, com-
menting on the experiment, ad-

SCORE!-"In the interests of science" Joan Nelson, '52, continues
research on the amount of phone calls on rainy days as compared
to those on clear days. She is shown chalking one up for the humid
Ann Arbor weather yesterday.
* * *{
mitted that little research has
been done to determine the effect
of weather on phone calls from
men.
"If the woman is pretty, men
* * *
are likely to call in any kind of
weather," he said.
"This is a fact," he added, "not
necessarily something we approve
of."

.For Halloween
Students will have a unique
chance to travel from heaven to
hell and back again at the Inter-
national Student's Association
Hallowe'en dance, from 8:30 to 12
p.m. Saturday at the Rackham
Lecture Hall.
The theme for the costume
dance wil center around the idea
of Dante's Divine Comedy, with
the center of the hall serving as
purgatory, the right annex, hell
and the left annex, heaven.
In order to secure entrance
from purgatory to either heaven
or hell, students must tell the
guardian of the gates their rea-
sons for seeking admission.
An Angel and the devil will be
posted at the gates to judge upon
the answers and permit or refuse
admission.
Decorations will be of abstract
design, with purgatory being a
reflection of reality, hell a vision
of ugliness and heaven being
everything of the beautiful, ac-
cording to George Petrossian,
grad., who is in charge of the
decorations.
In addition to the dancing, a
floor show wil be presented and
refreshments servel. Prizes will
be awarded for the funniest andI
most unusual costumes.
The idea of the deviation from
the customary American pumpkin
and witches version of hallowe'en
came from Erika Fritzen, a stu-
dent from Germany who said that
the party theme and Hallowe'en
in Germany have much in com-
Mon.
Tickets may be purchased at the

Time has rolled around again
for the annual awards for scholar-
ship and talent, all of which will
be announced at Assembly's yearly
Fortnight celebration, held at 7:30
p.m., November 8, in the Lydia
Mendelssohn Theatre of the
League.
Originally the summation of
two weeks' ceremonies, including
recognition night, installation of
house presidents and the Fort-
night skits, all these have been
combined into one big celebration.
* * *
IN PREVIOUS years the title of
the theme has been kept secret,
but due to someone's slip, Central
Committee says, it is pretty gen-
eral knowledge that this year's
night will bear the title "Bells
and Bows."
The skits of the dormitories
and League houses are suppos-
edly kept secret until they are
seen. by the rest of the women.
They supply the source of a
good deal of rivalry.
This year special awards will be
given for highest scholarship, both
individual and house.
PRIZES THIS year for the skits
include a cup to the house or
dormitory that takes first place
and plaques to winners of second
and third places. In years be-'
fore, only a cup was given for first
prize.
Something new has been add-
ed in the form of a door prize.
Central Committee feels that it
is something that any co-ed on
campus would be happy to re-
ceive.
Master of ceremonies for the
evening will be Alberta Cohrt and
Anita Hoert, both members of the
Central Committee of Assembly.
All big sisters have been re-
quested to take their little sitsers
to the performance. By this me-
thod, Assembly hopes to get more
of the upper classmen out and to
cement relations between big and
little sisters.
Members of he Central Commit-
tee are as follows: General Chair-
man, Lyla Beck; decorations, Le-
nore Orsolek and Evelyn Mala-
wista; publicity, Janet Campbell
and Doris Hawthorne; skits, Sue
Alderman. Completing the list
are Della Galloway, patrons; Liesl
Ellenbogen, awards; Gwen Dorn,
programs.
Dance Meeting

Michigan Panhellenic Associa-
tion is sponsoring a booth for the
purpose of selling bus tickets on
both local and out of state lines.
Previously tickets are sold only
by the Union on campus. Al-
though the Union is still selling
the tickets, they sell only on local
lines.
* * *
BARB ELLIOTT, vice president
of Panhel Board, and chairman of
this project, has stated that she
and the Board feel that the booth
will be a profitable enterprise.
Coeds have signed up to sell
the tickets and were instructed
in the art of selling by two
agents of well known bus com-
panies.
However, the coeds found that
selling was a more complicated
business than they had anticipat-
ed, and they are keeping the
phone number of a local company
handy in case of any question
that might arise.
SINCE THE booth was started
only a short time ago, Miss Elliott
has found it difficult to estimate
an expected profit.
According to the agents, most
of the business can be expected
just before the holidays, al-
though a standing number of
tickets will be sold each week-
end.
Panhellenic operates the busi-
ness on a commission basis, receiv-
ing a commission from every tick-
et sold.
The women working on the
booth also receive a commission
for their selling time.
Panhel Board expects the bus
route to be changed to go by the"
League soon, since at the present
time it does not.
The booth is located in the
League lobby and is open from 9
a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Wednesday
through Saturday. At other times
tickets may be, purchased in the
Undergraduate Office of th e
plus tax fr .
