aul Bunyan To Appear on Campus
* * * -

U$ Foresters
To Present
Annual Dance
Paul Bunyan will make his an-
nual appearance in Ann Arbor
Saturday, Feb. 28 for the all-cam-
pus dance to be given in his honor
from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m. in Water-
man-Barbour Gymnasiums.
The dance is sponsored by the
Forestry Club, and will feature the
"Inland Empire" in the Land of
the Big Trees where Paul Bunyan
had his legendary existence.
THE GYMNASIUM will be dec-
orated with 240 red pines cut by
the Forresters at Saginaw Forest,
University-owned property near
Ann Arbor.
Also decorating the gymna-
slum will be many exhibits of
forestry equipment and litera-
ture explaining how it is used
from the Michigan Conservation
Department and the United
States Forestry Service, and
others.
Starting a week before the
dance, foresters will again honor
"Plaid Shirt Week," the tradi-
tional costume of the woodsman.
Jeans and plaid shirts will be the
official garb to be worn to the
dance by both men and women.
CLYDE MITCHELL and his or-
chestra will provide music for the
annual affair.
The first dance was held sev-
eral years ago when foresters
decided they would present a
different dance than anything
held on campus before. They
rented an old barn and went
clad in blue jeans and plaid
shirts.
The idea developed into an an-
nual event, held in honor of the
greatest woodsman of them all,
Paul Bunyan, Stories of the gi-
gantic woodsmai are told and re-
told by lumbermen who have ad-
mired him as their hero.
He is supposed to have grown
unnumbered inches every day un-
til he reached his full height of 43
axe handles. He also gained 349
pounds per day as he grew to
manhood.
