THURSDAY, DECEMBER 17, 1953 THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE FIVE _______________________________________________________________________________ I I - mommo Cast of Union Opera Fifty Booths To Be Picked Weddings, Engagements Announced by Coeds' Parents T tmEarI( on IC )Ur For Michigras Adopting as their motto "the show must go on," Union Opera cast members and crew will em- bark December 26 on the longest road tour since the '20s. Anticipating 1600.miles of travelI the 69 members of the opera cast and the 5 stage hands will board two University buses the day after Christmas for the first lap of their trip. FOLLOWING a schedule which will be approximately the same in each town, the group will arrive in Toledo in time for a banquet put on by the Toledo alumni. Aft- er the show, the men will be hon- ored at a Cast-Alumni Mixer. * * * Because of the short distance to Toledo, the group will not spend the night there, but rather come back to Ann Arbor. After a short rest Sunday, the buses will pull out again at 10 p.m. that evening for the opera's, stand in Buffalo.a SERVING AS headquarters for the men in Buffalo will be the Buffalo Athletic Club. Beginning about fifteen min- utes after the close of the per- p formance, this party, as in all the cities visited during the tour, is open to not only cast mem- bers. University students, mem-j bers of the audience and friends are also invited. After spending Monday evening in Buffalo and perhaps taking a sight-seeing tour to Niagara Falls, the "gang" will head for Cleve- land and a performance scheduled for December 29. C THE PARTY planned by the Cleveland Alumni is typical of those scheduled in each of the cities. Expecting a crowd of be- tween 1200 and 1550, the whole mezanine floor of the hotel has been rented for the event. Titled "Michigan Ball," guests are ex- pected from as far away as 60 miles. One large ballroom and two smaller rooms will be among the rooms open for the event. On hand to provide music for danc- ing will be a seven piece orches- tra, Leaving early on the morning of December 30, the outfit will make te journey to Flint and back in one day. The same arrangements have been made for the show in Detroit on New Year's Eve. * * * PRECEDING both performances will be the usual banquet. Parties scheduled by the alumni will be similar to that planned in Cleve- land. Added attraction in Detroit will be the ushering in of the New Year. A night on the town will be the highlight of the Chicago trip, the last lap of the tour. Making their headquarters the Conrad- Hilton Hotel, the men will also be lavishly entertained by the alumni group of the "windy city." Finishing their stand in Chi- cago, the men will arrive back in Ann Arbor on Sunday afternoon, just in time for Monday morning classes. Petitions Will Be Used As Basis for Selection In '54 Spring Carnival Booths for the carnival portion of the 1954 Michigras, to be held April 23 and 24 in the fieldhouse, will be selected on the basis of petitions, co-chairmen Barb Bur- stein and Bob Gillow announced. Because of limited room the co- chairmen have set 50 as the top- number of booths, shows, games of skill and refreshments that will be chosen. The petition system will be ex- plained to all house representa- tives at a meeting to be held at 7:30 p.m., Wednesday, Jan. 6 in the Union. Booths will be selected on the following basis: originality, sell- ing ability, carnival spirit, expense and thoroughness of petition. Special consideration will be given to traditional booths in so far as they were successful last year, Miss Burstein stated. While the Michigras theme, "Life's a Book," will prevail in the fieldhouse, she asserted that it is not imperative that the booths fol- low this theme in their decorations. Gillow reminds representatives that trophies will be awarded in three divisions-show booths, re- freshments and games of skill. Considered will be the number of tickets sold; originality, appear- ance and carnival spirit; and gen- eral appeal to the public. The "Beta Burlesque," a booth offering of Beta Theta Pi and Pi Beta Phi, sold the greatest num- ber of tickets at the last Michi- gras carnival in 1952. "Love Through the Ages" pro- duced by Theta Xi and Alpha Phi was a close second Working with the representa- tives will be petitions chairman Sissi Bergstein, electrical chair- man Bob Hoffman, supply chair- man Frank Taylor, design and construction chairman Dave Flei- sher, deconstruction chairman Tom Barnum and judges chair- man Marilyn Becker. Other positions on this com- mittee are filled by Sarah Jo Brown, secretary, an'd Emily Bak- er, publicity "chairman. I' *1 MRS. ROBERT BOWMAN MARY HEINER DORIS GARDNER MRS.
