Tonight marks the end of the
attempt by the barristers of the
Law School to solve the "case of
the hidden slide rule" in time for
Crease Ball.
According to Jack Edick, chair-
man of Slide Rule Ball, the law-
yers tracked down the whereabouts
of the "big rule" to a room in the
Union where it had been placed in
readiness for the engineer's dance.
JIMMYING THE LOCK, the law
men were able to cop the coveted
instrument and thus emerge vic-
torious over the engineers after the
past few weeks' rivalry with the
slide rule men.
In defense of this unfortunate
event for the engineers, Edick
exclaimed, "The lawyers are wel-
come to the slide rule; we have
something different up our
sleeves that won't be made pub-
lie until the dance is underway."
Thus the last-minute prepara-
tions for Slide Rule Ball are
shrouded in mystery.

CLARE SHEPPARD'S band will
be on hand to serenade couples as
they wait for the surprise to un-
fold.
Instruments demonstrating en-
gineering feats will be the fea-
tured decorations for the all-
campus engineer-sponsored
dance from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m. to-
night in the Union Ballroom.
Tickets for $2.25 per couple may
be purchased at the Technic office
and from members of the Technic
staff.

THE BARRISTERS will use the
eight-foot rule of the engineers to
decorate Crease Ball, just as last
year, when two slide rules were
triumphantly displayed on wires
strung across the room.
Gene Pearson and his orches-
tra will set the musical mood for
the lawyers' biggest dance of the
year to be held from 9 p.m. to
1 a.m. tonight in the League
Ballroom.
Each couple attending Crease
Ball will receive a copy of "The
Michigan Raw Review," a humor-
ous take-off on "The Michigan
Law Review" publication.
The Law School formal is headed
by general chairman, Burt Perl-
man, who holds a degree from En-
gineering School.
Tickets are $2.75 per couple and
may be purchased from any mem-
ber of the Barristers or in Hutch-
ins Hall.
