Residence Halls Plan Dances; Gay Holiday Spirit To Prevail Quads Feature Modern, Masquerade Themes; 'Wintery' Scenes Set for Lloyd Hall Formal Of Badge Presentation Tau Beta Pi, national engineer- ing honor society, gave their an- nual initiation banquet in honor of new members last night in tpe Union. Also honored was Violet Heint- zelman, a junior in engineering school. She was awarded the Woman's Badge, which is awarded on the basis of scholarship, character, integrity, service and leadership. The organization admits no wo- men members, but the Badge re- cognizes women of unusual ability in the study of engineering who would have been eligible for mem- bership had they been. men. Miss Heintzelman is the first woman at the University since 1948 to receive the Woman's Badge and is among a hundred women in the nation to receive it since the founding of Tau Beta Pi in 1885. Because qualifications for the award are higher for juniors than for seniors, Miss Heintzelman has received an unusual honor. She is L also notable not only for succeed- ing in engineering school until her junior year but also for being a scholastic leader in her ci'ass. Miss Heintzelman combines many dormitory activities at Mosher Hall, including glee club and social committee, with exe- cutive duties on various other committees. This year she is secretary of the American Institute of Chemical Engineering, secretary of the En- gineering Council, president of the Society of Women Engineers and is a member of the Engineer- ing Honor Council. With no definite position in mind yet, Miss Heintzelman plans to go into a branch of chemical engineering.

Transformation of the South Quad into a modern Christmas scene wil take place for its first semi-formal, "Noel Moderne" to be presented from 9 p.m. to mid- night Saturday, December 15. Music for the dance will be fur- nished by the orchestra of Don Bari, who, according to advanced reports, is a veteran of the prom circuits around Detroit. Instead of the usual Christmas decorations, "Noel Moderne" will be centered around a color scheme of shocking pink and silver which will be carried .from punch to or- naments. Even the corsage favors, which will be made up of a sprig of pine and pine cones and decorated with pink and silver ornaments and shocking pink ribbon, will be in keeping with the color scheme. At midnight, couples will ad- journ to a candle-lit Club 600 where a trio from the orchestra will offer some more music on the dreamy side. Tickets, priced at $2.50 per couple may be purchased at the South Quad lobby from 5:30 to 8' p.m. or they may be obtained from any Quad social chairman, coun- cil member or house officer.

Sponsored by Hayden, Cooey, Anderson and Strauss houses, the party will feature dancing, games and prizes for outstanding cos- tumes. The price of admission for the dance is 75 cents per couple. Tick- ets may be purchased during the day anywhere in East Quad. Although the dance is being sponsored by only four houses in the Quad, everyone on campus is invited to attend. LLOYD HALL... Residents of Alice Lloyd Hall and their dates will dance amid decorations that will carry out their traditional theme "Winter- lace" from 9 p.m. to midnight Fri- day, Dec. 14. Five lounges will be decorated by the coeds in preparation for their annual semi-formal dance for the Yuletide season. The main lounge of the newest women's dormitory will be trans- formed to create a "wintery" at- mosphere by the addition of white pine trees laden with "snow." Big red bows and bells trimmed with silver will add a .festive look to the room. The Hinsdale lounge will depict a ballroom scene, complete with life size figures of dancers placed on the windows and walls. Life size figures of skaters will also decorate the Palmer lounge as it will represent a skating rink. For those couples who desire to escape the "cold" of the skating rink, the Angell house lounge will serve as a haven or ski lodge where they mayobtain refresh- ments. F o r the more cosmopolitan minded couples, the Kleinbstuck lounge will represent a night club where refreshments will also be served. Dancing will be held in the main lounge and they Palmer and Hinsdale lounges. The hallway will be decorated to represent a forest path complete with a large ski jump. General chairmen for "Winter- lace" are Louise Miller and Elaine Rothman. 'Wig and Robe' Legends Told .By Lawyers. The court wil recess, the jury will take a break and law students and their dates will celebrate the approach of the Christmas season at the Barristers' annual dance, 'Wig and Robe', to be held in the Union Ballroom from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m. Friday. There is a, legend that goes around about the origin of this now traditional dance. Seems that many years ago BLQ (before Law Quad), a budding law student by the name of Tommy Tortfeaser conspired with a group of his fellow strugglers at the Orient, the before-blue-laws-bar. "Forty-eight years without a break is enough," moaned poor Tommy, recalling all the Satur- day nights he had studied. He decided to take things into his own hands and, aided by a successful law student, one Mr. Phogbound, future senator, Tom- my aroused spirit in his fellows and they organized a dance. . Today, some many years later the counterpart of this historic first event is being held in the Union by the sons of the original group. Rex Smith and his band will be on the bench to provide 'nusical recess for the dancing couples at the semi-formal dance. Faculty Women The December meeting of the women of the University Fac- ulty wil be held at 8 p.m. to- night in the Club Room at the Michigan League. Set in a pawnshop, the floor- show, "Tickets Please," will be a feature of this year's Sophomore Cabaret to be held from 8 p.m. to midnight Friday and Saturday on the entire second floor of the League. Written by Betsy Smith and Liz Perlin, the show is scheduled for performances at 9 p.m. and 10:30 p.m. each night in Lydia Mendels- sohn Theater. Sue Nasset is floorshow chair- man with Sue Shafter as her as- sistant. The principal characters in the show are Phoebe, who owns the pawnshop, Mr. Sreditor, a Wall- Street baron with plenty of money but no interest in women, and the pawnshop janitor, Rufus, who is fascinated by another woman, Ur- sula. An eccentric inventor, interested only in test tubes and chemicals, and the headmistress of an ex- clusive school for efficient secre- taries on the floor above the pawnshop are also included in the cast. Leads will be taken by Clara Jane Fredericks, Margaret Pays- ner, Elaine Rothman, Betty Mag- yar, Sue Spurrier and Helen Ker- math. Words and music for the pro- duction's original songs were writ- ten by music chairman, Charlotte Hoyt, Liz Perlin and Jane Thomp- son. Lee Fiber is assistant music chairman. Ann Albert and Audrey McIn- tyre have worked out all the dance routines, including tap and soft shoe numbers, and an unusual ballet done under ultra-violet light. Sets were designed by Mary Ann Alexander and her stage-crew. Dorothy Hammett and Billie Reed created the costumes and Teri Youngman will make up the cast. Admission to the floorshow is included in the price of tickets, which are on sale for 75 cents in the League or the Business Ad- ministration Building. Tickets will also be sold at the door Friday and Saturday nights.
