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. . s * 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.
