Y, OCTOBER 25, 1951 THE MICHIGAN DAILY _ __ 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- -Daily-James Easley 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."

I 4m .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 International Center tea tomorrow Ia LUELLA KANENEN * * * Kananen - Jobin Mr. and Mrs. Arnold Kananen of Hubbell, Mich. have announced the engagement of .their daughter, Luella, to Lawrence Jobin, son of Mr. and and Adelord Jobin of Lake Linden, Mich.

U U W\, A 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 There will be a meeting of the Modern Dance Club at 7:30 p.m. today 'in Barbour Dance Studio. Advice on Stains n. 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 .
