plot of the play is being kept se-

part of 'Julie Taylor, with Emily
Harding, Gail Glover and Punch
Kahlenberg rehearsing character
parts. Luan Fiber will take the
stage as comedienne in the all-
coed production.

preparation for the opening cur-
tain.
Ushers Needed
Sectional practices are being
held for the various choruses and
dances, as well as for lead and mi-

show is Dawn Waldron.
Among the committees working

asks junior women who are inter-
ested in ushering for performances
on Friday and Saturday evenings,
March 18 and 19, to sign up in the
League Undergraduate office. Ush-
ers are also needed for the Sat-
urday matinee.

By JANE FOWLER
From Ohio University via

the University of Michigan; -
that's the route Barbara Heider,

her college career.
And everywhere the sparkling
blue-eyed Barbara has gone, she

Verdent pine trees will take root
in the Union Ballroom; Saturday
evening, March 12, as the forestry
club presents its annual Paul Bun-
yan Dance.
Brought in by forestry students
from the School of Natural Re-
sources forest properties, these
trees will transform the Ballroom
into the great outdoors.,.
Each weekend a crew of forest-
ers supervised by Jim Noel, has
been cutting and hauling these
trees to Ann Arbor. The crowns are
used for decorations, while the
lower trunks will be used for cor-
rals.
Blue Ox
A decoration highlight will be
a figure of Paul Bunyan. Both Paul
and his blue ox, Babe, are under-
going major changes in growth.
Paul now stands well over 12 feet
tall, and Babe has grown to a full
10 feet at his shoulders.
Couples will enter the Ballroom
through the entrance to Paul's
bunkhouse. Several of his utensils
will be in evidence about the dance
floor, including his bed, his stove,
his outsize clothes line and one of
Paul's large frying pans by the
fireplace.
In the adjoining rooms there
will be several displays by the de
partments of the School of Nat-
ural Resources. One of the rooms
will be transformed into a saloon
where refreshments will be avail-
able. Natural Resource students
are constructing the longest bar on
campus which will be complete
down to the typical mural over the
bar.
Exhiits
The forestry department will
have a display of fire fighting
equipment, and aerial photography
exhibit, and a pictorial display of
the student logging operations on
the University forest properties.

ment is working on an exhibit, and

trainer of her chapter of Alpha
Xi Delta, she is a member of Mor-
tarboard.
Starting her Panhel work as Al-
pha Xi's delegate to Panhellenic
Association and Senate, she soon
became parliamentarian of the
sorority group. Barb gained more
experience in Panhel problems and
operations when she served as cor-
responding secretary for the Pan-
hel, IFC Big Ten conference last
spring.
Top Position
Last fall she stepped into the
office of first vice-president of all
affiliated women on campus. The
top position of acting president of
Panhel came to Barbara suddenly
when President Jean Bromfield
WAA Clubs Offer
Coeds Relaxation
Coeds who have found time to
relax from studying, and would
like to participate in some kind of
athletics, still have a variety from
which to choose.
WAA clubs that are still open
for membership, include the Diving
Club meeting at 5:10 p.m. Mondays
at the pool, Riding Club at 7:15
p.m. Tuesdays and Thursdays at
the WAB, Badminton Club at 7:15
p.m. Wednesdays at Barbour Gym,
and Fencing Club at 4:20 p.m.
Tuesdays and Thursdays at Bar-
bour. Some experience is needed
for the Fencing Club.
For those women interested in
swimming, there is a class at 8:15
p.m. Tuesdays for upperclassmen.
Lessons will continue for five
weeks. Also available is the Speed
Swimming Club meeting at 5:10
p.m. Thursdays.
Recreational swimming is at

day, 7:15 p.m. Mondays, 8:15 p.m.

felt she must give up the office to
concentrate on her studies.
How does Barbara feel about
leading the group until Installa-
tion Night? "I'm proud to be in
office and I want to do as well as
I can, but most of the work has
been set up. I have Jean's pattern
to follow."
But following this pattern is a
big responsibility. Barb will su-
pervise elections for new Panhel-
lenic officers. Under a different
set-up, the president will be elect-
ed by a house vote, instead of by
Panhellenic Board, thus allowing
every sorority girl to vote.
Also on the agenda while Barb
heads the group is a revision of
the Panhellenic Constitution and
the biggest project of all, Greek
Week. For the coming all-campus
elections, Barb and her affiliated
coeds will provide 297 hours of
work.
Big Ten Convention
In April, the new Panhel presi-
dent, a junior board member, Miss
Ethel McCormick and Barbara will
attend the Panhel, IFC Big Ten
Convention, this year at Ohio
State.
In carrying out these established
plans, the coed from Ironton, O.
will have lots to do.
Plus her extra-curricular lead-
ership, Barbara has maintained
above a 3.4 scholastic average. Her
freshman and sophomore years
were spent at Ohio University be-
fore she went to Washington, D.C.
In the capital, Barb took courses
at George Washington University
while working for the FBI as a
clerk-typist.
Practice Teacher
A fine arts major, she is now
practice teaching at Saline where
most of her junior and senior boys
tower over their petite teacher.
Presently one of Barb's inter-
ests is the colonization of the new
sorority, Eskasia.
"I'm so happy about the new
group and I hope that they will
soon be a chapter in a national
Panhellenic sorority. I feel confi-
dent that this won't be too far
away because, not only will a na-
tional want to get this marvelous
group of girls, but also to become
active on Michigan's campus.
It is with this enthusiasm that
Barbara Heider leads Panhellenic
Association.
Ticket Hunt
Hundreds of yellow slips of
paper will be hidden through-
out the campus tomorrow by
the Spring Weekend committee.
Any student who finds 25 of
these slips may turn them in
from 9 to 5 p.m. any day next
week at the Administration
Building and will obtain one
free ticket to Skit Night.
