May Festival luncheon were re-

THE PATIO will feature a mod-
ern mist-giving fountain with in-
direct colored lighting applied to
it. Multi-colored awnings will dec-
orate the scene here as well as in
the dancing area in the main din-
ing room.
Abstract flowers as well as
more conventional types will be
scattered about the rooms as
decoration.
In another dining room, chairs
will be arangod in small conversa-
tion groups about a 150 square foot
space modulator of a crystal de-
sign. Smaller modulators of simi-
lar design will be distributed about
the building.
* * *
EACH ONE will be highlighted
by the use of "black light" which
gives an ultra-violet effect.
Throughout the decorations,
the central committee has at-
tempted to combine a spring at-
mosphere with abstract design.
In the main dancing room, Fred
Netting and his orchestra will be
playing for the guests. His music
will also be piped into the room
where couples will be seated in
conversation groups.
* * *
FROM 10 P.M. to midnight, Hal
Singer, former pianist on WHRV,
will play- numbers requested by
guests in the main lounge.
Women at the dance will re-
ceive spring corsages made up
of daffodils and heather. They
will be passed out from a flower
cart by an attendant at the door.
Refreshments will consist of
fruit punch and four different var-
ieties of cookies.
At midnight, couples will ad-
journ to the Quad's Club 600 where
a trio from Fred Netting's orches-
tra will continue serenading the
guests.
According to Ron Bornstein,
executive chairman of the dance,
the University plant department
has agreed to have the entire Quad
grounds landscaped "beautifully"
in time for "Artistry in Abstract."
Other members of the central
committee are Jerry Parker, gen-
eral chairman; Frank Cesarano,
general manager; and Bill Land
and Steve Mitro, decorations.
Tickets for "Artistry in Ab-
strjact," available to the entire
campus, are priced at $2.50 per
couple and may be purchased at
South Quad this week.
Lantern Night, an annual event
for all University women, willetake
place this year on Monday, May
12.
Sponsored by the board of the
Women's Athletic Association, the
traditional festivities will again
honor graduating senior women.
* * *
THE 39TH PROGRAM will be-
gin with the traditional line of
march of all women students to
Hill Auditorium. Last year this
line of march was not held.
Led by the Michigan March-
ing Band, the parade will origi-
nate at 7 p.m. in front of Alum-
ni Memorial Hall and will end
on the steps of Hill Auditorium.
A huge block 'M', composed of
27 coed campus leaders, will march
directly in back of the band.
BEHIND THEM, in four lines,
will be the honored seniors, wear-
ing blue bows, and the junior
women with yellow bows in their
hair. The sophomores and fresh-
men will wear red and green bows,
respectively, to distinguish them
from the upperclassmen.
Each coed is asked to purchase
her own ribbon.
The parade will be held unless
there is a rainstorm. If the weath-
er is doubtful, participating houses
are asked to call Abbie Funk or
Nancy Fitch to determine if the
procession is to take place.
AFTER THE procession, the
evening's main event, the Lantern
Night Sing, will be held in Hill
Auditorium. Choral groups from
various women's groups on cam-
pus will take part in this program
of vocal competition.
The choir giving the best per-
formance, based on interpreta-
tion and artistic effect, intona-
tion, accuracy, rhythm, tone,
diction, 'presentation and ap-
pearance, will be awarded the
first place cup, which was won
last year by Kappa Kappa Gam-
ma with their presentation of
"Mood Indigo."
Eliminations, initiated two years
ago, will take place on Thursday

Connecticut College
on a hilltop overlooking the
Thames River at New London,
Connecticut
in Hill Auditorium. One half of
the number of houses trying out
will be selected to appear on the
Lantern Night program.
* * *
THE HOUSES which are not
chosen will support with songs
and cheers the groups which will
compete.
During eliminations, the pos-
ture of the choirs will be judged,
and the group with the best pos-
ture will be awarded a cup on
Monday night.
Chi Omega received the participa-
tion cup.
These Lantern Night festivi-
ties are an outgrowth Of a pro-
gram which originated in 1913.
Then all coeds took part in
races and various other events at
a women's field day at Palmer
Field. Later each class presented
a special group of stunts.
IN 1932 the first line of march
was held, with the procession tak-
ing place around Palmer Field.
From this parade came* the
tradition of Japanese lanterns
and hoops, and from this the
name, Lantern Night, originated.
At that time the seniors car-
ried the lanterns in the line of
march and the junior caried hoops,
through- which the freshmen
jumped.
At the conclusion of the eve-
ning's fun the seniors gave their
lanterns to the juniors, while the
hoops were handed down to the
sophomores.
Awarded for the first time
1948, the cup is now held
Martha Cook.
