Of 'aMAIZ-in PURSE-onalities'

To Describe
Coed's Purse
"aMAIZ - in PURSE - onalties"
will be presented by the Maize
Team of Frosh Weekend from 9
p.m. to midnight Friday in the
League Ballroom.
The theme will feature the story
,- of a University coed. Maize Team

tion of Meridelle Knikhts and
> Sally Ann Miller, chairman and
assistant chairman, will reveal the
mysteries of a woman's purse
through various dances and songs.

SALLY WILKINSON, chairman
of the Maize Team, has announced
that the mistress of ceremonies
will be Nancy Marsh. Miss Marsh
will administer a complete beauty
treatment to a rather bedraggled
University coed, using the contents
of the "aMAIZ-in PURSES."
The student will be seen as an
"inorganic biology major," who
not only gains an "aMAIZ-in
PURSE-onality," but changes
her major to "Michigan men."
She then receives a wooden shoe,
one of the Maize Team's sym-
bols, as a good luck omen.
Paul McDonough and his or-
chestra will provide music for
dancing in therLeague Ballroom
both nights of Frosh Weekend.
Tickets for the event are priced
at $1.50 per couple and will be on
sale from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. today

Athletic Building, on the Diag-
onal and in the Undergraduate

tee members also have tickets.

thanks for the invitation to the;

occasion, the President regrets
that his committments are such

c

that it will not be possible for him
to go to Michigan at that time."
"You and the members of
your Community may be assured
that the President is nonetheless
appreciative of this friendly
thought of him."
Regent Vera Baits, who will
serve as a, patron and parade

the amount of work that the stu-
dents are willing to do for Michi-
gras' good cause I can only mar-
vel. I am thankful that each and

gan."

Druids, senior men's honorary,
was founded in 1910 for the pur-
pose of honoring senior men, out-
standing in various campus activi-
ties.
The honorary was originally
limited to students of the literary
college, but in later years as the
University expanded and new
schools came into being, Druids
began tapping students in the var-
ious new schools.
The organization which has a
maximum membership of 25 us-
ually numbers about 20 mem-
bers.
Members of Druids are chosen
from the senior class or from
members of the junior class who
will be seniors the following fall.
In choosing a member such qual-
ifications as character, leadership
anu achievement are taken into
conzideration.
In the spring those members
of the junior class who will be
senIors the next fall and who
have been chosen for member-
ship are tapped. In the fall a

smaller number of senior men
are tapped by the new members
chosen the preceding spring.
Each spring and fal on a night
selected by and known only to the
members of Druids, tapping occurs.,
The old members go stealthily
around to the various houses and
dorms and quietly spirit out the
prospective members. they are
then taken to an undisclosed place
where certain rituals take place.
The following day on the Di-
agonal the new members per-
form certain public demonstra-
tions to sympolize their loyalty
to the organization.
These public demonstrations are
culminated by a ceremony around
Women's Senate
There will be a Women's Sen-
ate meeting at 4 p.m. today at
the League. All Senators are re-
quested to attend.

the Druid Rock, which is located
in the northwest corner of the
campus near the site of old Haven
Hall.
Several days following the pub-
lic demonstration, a banquet and
secret initiation ceremony are held
for the new members. Two stones
brought from Stonehedge, the
home of the legendary Druids in
England, play a part in the cere-
mony.
At initiation the men who
have been accepted into the
honorary receive the symbolic
Druid pin of the sickle and ser-
pent.
Druids have undertaken various
activities and services projects.
These include work with the Salva-
tion Army and Dunbar Communi-
ty Center. The honorary has also
sponsored parties for the children
at the Michigan Children's Insti-
tute.
Dr. Lionel Laing is faculty advi-
sor of the group.
