Annual Party
For Children
Youngsters Will Visit
At Fraternity Houses
Before Hill Gathering
"Santa Claus is coming to town"
as honored guest at the annual
Inter-Fraternity Council Christ-
mas party to be held from 3 to 4
p.m. tomorrow in Hill Auditorium.
Plans for this year's party in-
clude two events. The 3,000 Ann
Arbor school children attending
will be guests of the individual fra-
ternity houses first, beginning at 1
p.m., and then will be taken to Hill
Auditorium for the afternoon's
program.
Plans for the parties at the
houses have been left up to the
individual fraternities. Most of
them will entertain the young-
sters with stories, games, songs,
and candy. Festive decorations
will provide a background for the
programs.
A long list of entertainment has
been planned to amuse the chil-
dren at the mass program in Hill
Auditorium. Favorite Christmas
music will be provided by the Nov-
elaires, campus quartet and a
band. Emcee Sherburne Brown
will lead the youngsters in sing-
;} ing carols.
Included every year in the pro-
gram is the magician's act, a fa-
vorite with the children. Chuck
Reynolds will "pull the rabbit out
of the hat" this year.
Twirling his baton, Dick Smith,
varsity band drum major, will also
entertain the youngsters.
The tricks of several clowns will
help keep the children laughing.
This year's program was ap-
proved by the house presidents at
a meeting several weeks ago and
placed under the direction of the
IFC social committee. Hank Crapo
-is chairman, assisted by Grant
Harris and Bob Dombrowski.
Between 40 and 70 youngsters
have been assigned to each house,
and the parents notified at which
house their child w'ould be enter-
tained.
After the party, parents may
meet their children outside the
auditorium. Each house will gath-
er their charges around a sign
bearing the fratenity name, in or-
der to help avoid confusion.

Law Society Will Present
Annual 'Wig and Robe' Bal
I
I
Lawyers on campus will dem-
onstrate how to hold court at their
annual Wig and Robe Ball, from
9 p.m. to i a.m. tomorrow in the
League Ballroom.
Presented by the Barrister's So-
ciety, the dance will feature Rex
Smith and his band, who appeared
at the dance last year.
Open 'to the entire' campus,
tickets may be purchased for $2.75
before the dance, but that night
the price will go up to $3.
Christmas decorations will 'pre-
vail at the law society's dance,
and Christmas trees will be in
abundance.
Undecorated trees will be ar-
ranged around a central, deco-
rated one, and the figure of a
Chancellor, the traditional sym-
bol of the Barrister's Society,
which has been passed down from
one class to another, will reign
over the whole affair.
Intermission entertainment has
been planned, featuring the
"Psurfs," law club singing group.
The official title of the singers is
the Ann Arbor Surf-riding-and
mountain-climbing society.
The traditional dance first took
place 49 years ago. It seems that
an up-and-coming law student by
the name of Tommy Tortfeasor
met with a group of his fellow stu-
dents at the Orient, local tavern,
which is no longer in existence.
At that historic meeting, the
group decided that it was time
laboring law students had a
break, so they sponsored the Wig
and Robe Dance.
The Barrister's
Society also
sponsors Crease Ball, traditional
rivalry between engineers arld
lawyers. Profits from the two an-
nual dances, Wig and Robe and
Crease Ball go toward furnishing
scholarships to the law school.
