The party has been planned for students, faculty, administration and their families, and will in- elude dancing, caroling and a spe- cial floor fQr children. Christmas Decorations Decorations in the Women's League will consist of greens in each of the wood panels on the first and second floors, highlight- ed with silouettes of silver angels and the traditional wreathes. Club To Sponsor Holiday Reception A Pan American theme will pre- vail at the annual Faculty Night party to be given by the Newman club from 8 p.m. to midnight to- morrow at the Father Richard Center. Latin American students have been invited to attend the faculty reception which will be combined with a dance. Refreshments will be served at intermission. Mary Anne Mulcahy, publicity chairman, urges all Newmanites to take advantage of this oppor- tunity to become acquainted withj the faculty members who will be honored guests for the evening. Students and faculty will dance to the music of Red Johnson and his orchestra in the Michigan Room, while the Hussey Room will be open to everyone for the singing of traditional Christmas carols, led by several prominent campus singing groups. Silver mu- sical notes and a large caroling book will lend atmosphere to the Hussey Room. Refreshments will be served in the Vandenberg Room on the sec- ond floor, and an international students' display of Christmas customs in other countries will be the main feature in the Ballroom. Children's Floor The third floor will be especial- ly for children, with Santa Claus using the Library as his "north pole workshop." A photographer will take pictures in a variety of holiday backgrounds in the Kala- mazoo Room, and Christmas mov- ies will also be shown. Programs will guide party-ers to the correct rooms, and an en- joyable afternoon is planned for everyone, according to the League Council. This is the first year that an all-campus Christmas party has ever been attempted, and its suc-' cess will depend on the turn-out of every student, faculty and ad- ministrative head, Nan Schiller, first vice-president of the League said. 1 1 5 t r a 1 1 s s i F t By JANE FOWLER With the hope of adding anoth- er great march to the University's musical tradition, the Union is sponsoring a contest to find appro- priate lyrics to Dr. Edwin Franco Goldman's stirring new composi- tion, "Michigan." Dr. Goldman, writer of such not-~ ed marches as "On the Mall," in- troduced his piece at a band con- cert presented last spring in Hill Auditorium. Since that time, the march has gained in popularity throughout the country. Presented at football games this fall by the Michigan Marching Band, it is soon to be played by the University of Illi- nois band in its annual program. Thus far, the march has not had lyrics, Sharing the opinion of many students and alumni, the public relations committee of the Union decided that words would add much to the tune and capture the spirit of the march. Under the leadership of Lee Tenenbaum and David Hubly, the Union is con- ducting a search for lyrics that wiil help to make the new "Michi- gan" as much a favorite as "The Victors" or "Varsity." The contest is open to all Uni- versity students, alumni and facul- ty. Prospective Hammerstein's may pick up the melodic line, a por- tion of the trio of the march, at the Union Student offices. Because of the limited supply, a complete copy of the score is not available to everyone. If entering lyricists desire to see the entire score, they may contact Tenen- baum. -Daily-Dean Morton IN THE FOUNDRY LABORATORY-Senior women in the College of Engineering, Carley Meikle and Anne Campbell, observe re- cordings of a machine in the University foundry laboratory. U' Women in Engineering School Brave 116 to 1 Ratio Completed lyrics should be brought before 5 p.m. Wednesday, Jan, 5 to the Student Offices. In addition to a typewritten copy, words should be written under the music so that judges can follow the words as they are intended to be sung. Lyrics selected will be officially set to the music for publication. The writer, will have his name as lyricist on published copies. The march will be played at the first football game next fall when Dancing, Shows To Add Gaiety To Soph Weekend New ideas will add to the tra- ditional sophomore weekend, Soph Scandals, when two evenings of dancing to the music of two or- chestras, double-feature floor- shows and refreshments provide entertainment for University co- eds Friday and Saturday. This year Red Johnson and his orchestra will provide music us- ing the arrangements of Paul Mc- Donough's former orchestra, in the main Ballroom of the League. Earl Pearson and his band will play soft dance melodies, similar to the style of George Schiring and King Cole, in the Vandenberg Room. Originally, the sophomore week- end started in 1927 and took place in Angell Hall or Barbour Gym. During the war the sophomore production was discontinued. Until this year, the weekend was called Sophomore Cabaret. Ac- cording to Pat Sackandy, publicity chairman, the name was changed to Soph Scandals because of the aew traditions included in this year's presentation. spectators will receive copies of the new words free of charge. The Union officials point out that this contest is different from most competitions in that the sig- nificance of the winning entry will last long after the prize has been awarded. Tenenbaum said, "The writer will be recognized in cam- pus, alumni and other publications of interest to Michigan and her friends, thus becoming part of Michigan's vast tradition." "NOW...

By ROSE PERLBERG Imagine spending approximate- ly seven hours a day, five days a week studying in a school where the ratio is 116 men to every wo- man. The 19 coeds in the College of Engineering find this environment stimulating and interesting for classwork. Back in 1952 when the College of Engineering, then combined with the College of Architecture, was added to a strictly literary curriculum, the idea of a woman choosing engineering as a profes- sion was remote. Women Engineers The first woman to break the ice, Marian Sara Parker, received her B.S..in Chemical Engineering in 1895. Following in her footsteps are such well-known personalities as efficiency expert Lillian M. Gil- breth, author- of "Cheaper by the Dozen." She received an honorary Masters Degree in Engineering from the University in 1928. Women entering the College of Engineering have a long, hard grind ahead and many hours ofj midnight oil to burn before they attain their goal, engineering col- lege coeds commented. Freshman Elizabeth Palmer considers the work far from discouraging. When asked if being the only woman in many of her classes affected her work, she replied, "As soon as the fellows realize that you're not there just to get married, they ac- cept you as part of the class." When Norma Bennis, now a jun- lor and a major in mechanical en- gineering, transferred from Hofs- tra College in New York last year, she faced many problems of ad-j justment. Adjustment to Michigan "In the first place," she said, "the work is much more difficult, but professors are understanding and helpful." Miss Bennis gained practical experience this summer working as a draftsman. Anne Campbell, senior in math- ematics and mechanical engineer- ing has shown that a woman can get as far as a man in engineer- ing college. President of the Engi- neering Honor Council, the only woman member of the Engineering Council and vice-president of the fSenior class are some of her acti- vities. Miss Campbell eventually hopes to become a research worker. Carley Meikle, the only other senior woman, does exercises "so that I can work the machines in one of my classes." Mrs. Meikle, an industrial engineering major, enjoys mixing marriage with her engineering courses, and even finds time to be associate editor of the "Technic," the engineering college magazine, and secretary of the American Society of Mechani- cal Engineers. Masculine Side .No story would be complete vithout the man's side. Paul Barth, a sophomore in mechanical engi- neering, says women "promote the competitive spirits of the men and ict as an incentive for them to do better work." John Kelingos and Dave Gerar- duzzi, freshmen in civil engineer- ing and mathematics respectively, don't think a coed belongs in the; College of Engineering. "Girls are too sensitive," they declared, "and have trouble keeping up with the work and stiff physical grind."

After being an editor of the Dartmouth literary magazine (The Dart),. I set my sights on Esquire. It took 18 years of hard work to achieve the editorship - after struggling as a newsmagazine cub, cartoon and essay writer, advertising copy writer and trade paper editor."
