'Hillelzapoppin'
both old and new, this year's pro-
duction of "Hillelzapoppin" will
take its audience through the
pages of the comic strips and also
give them an impression of the
rigors of fraternity life in the
Twenties when it is presented at
8 p.m. tomorrow in the Lydia
Mendelssohn Theatre of the Lea-
gue.
An annual event on campus,
"Hillelzapoppin" has been pre-
sented by the Hillel Foundation
for the past six years. Proceeds
each year are donated to the Uni-
ted Jewish Appeal.
Each year several groups on
campus enter skits and vie for the
cup presented to the best act.
Tomorrow Alpha Epsilon Phi
will offer "Old Bodies of '53 or
The Case of the Missing Dimple,"
a take-off on the Charles Addam's
cartoons which appear in a weekly
magazine. Directing the skit is
Margaret Paysner.
"Up Front," the story of what
happens when men stay home and
women fight a war, will be the
title of Sigma Delta Tau's presen-

Senior Night
Will Include
JGP Opening
Traditional Festivities
In Honor of Seniors
To Feature Premiere
Senior women will view the first
performance of "Vanity Flair,"
this year's production of the an-
nual Junior Girls' Play, on
Wednesday, March 19, as part of
the Senior Night festivities.
The performance of JGP exclu-
sively for senior women is part of
an age-old campus tradition.
* * *
ABANDONING their caps and
gowns for the first time since Sen-
ior Night was founded, senior
women will begin the activities of
the evening with a long march
around the mall, and then on to a
dinner in the League Ballroom be-
fore attending the premiere of
"Vanity Flair."
Following tpe customary pro-
ceedings at the dinner, the
seniors will present a skit cen-
tered around campus activities
familiar to all the women
throughout their four years at
the University.
Before the play, the seniors will
walk across the stage one by one:
pinned women carrying pins, those
who are engaged carrying candles,
married women sucking lemons,
and unattached coeds throwing
pennies, one for every year of their
life, into an appropriate wishing
well.
Anticipating that the seniors
will make use of their special pre--
rogative, the JGP cast is rehears-
ing everyday to attain perfection
for the critical opening night au-
dience.
* * *
IN THE PAST the seniors at-
tending JGP in a body frequently
demanded repetition of lines or
parts in the play and cried "roll
'em up!" to the "Joe Colleges" as
the junior players stepped onto
the stage.
The JGP tradition began in
1904 when junior women pre-
sented a skit in honor of gradu-
ating seniors.
The tickets for Senior Night are
$2.80 and may be purchased from
the senior representatives in each
dormitory and house.
* * *
MARY MARSH is general chair-
man of the 1953 Senior Night ac-
tivities.
The public performances of
"Vanity Flair" are scheduled for

and 21, in Lydia Mendelssohn
Theater. The evening shows will

the two evening performances and

Tickets will be sold from 2 to, 5

Lifeyat the University through
the eyes of a freshman will be
depicted by Kappa Alpha Theta
and Theta Xi in their production,
"Little Lord Flunkleroy," which
will be presented as part of the
Skit Night program at 8:30 p.m.,
Saturday, March 28, in Hill Audi-I
torium.

Guarding one entrance to the
diag while the engineers held
the opposite side, the lawyers
would arouse the anger of the
"engine gang" by parking a car
in the middle of Engine Arch
and letting the air out of the
tires.
For revenge, the - engineers
would form a human chain across
the arch to prevent the lawyers
from reaching their classrooms.
There began the frienly feud.
EAVH YEAR the success of the
dance is measured by the ap-
pearance or absence of the engi-
neers' prized slide rule.
Traditionally this started in
1921 when members of the law
school stole the eight-foot slide
rule which was to be the main
decoration at Slide Rule Ball.
The engineers, angered at the
loss of their possession, retaliated
by invading Crease Ball with tear
gas bombs and succeeded in cut-
ting off the electric current.
* * *
IN 1951 THE engineers were
prepared for any misfortune with
three rules on hand.
However, the attempt to re-
tain this prize resulted in com-
plete victory for the lawyers,
who triumphantly carried two
rules to Crease Ball and display-
ed them like banners strung
around the room.
In the shuffle last year one of
the three rules was lost so the
