The show is scheduled to be presented at the Michigan Theatre December 5, 6 and 7. Committee of nion Coed Show Reveals Chorus,_Cast Members change as a trend toward a neat- er, well-planned manner of dress. The "dirty -bobby sock look,"; which has long plagued sports-; wear designers, is on the wane. Instead, Mrs. Alvey said, coeds are wearing oxford type shoes with knee socks and nylon stock- ings. Color Harmony Greater interest in color har- mony for casual dress was cited by the blonde news correspondent as another manifestation of this fashion change. Women in their junior and se- nior years, she said, must - buy their clothing with an eye to the years after graduation. The result is a more sophisticated, orderly wardrobe. Mrs. Alvey, who has worked as a buyer in a leading New York store, called the University a rep- resentative of mid-United States college fashions. Eastern schools are character- ized by more formality in dress. In the far West, students select clothing with a dressy, tailored look. "Midwestern college dress is a mixture of both and therefore BUROCATS - There will be a Buro-Cats Activities Committee meeting at 7 p.m. tonight in the League. *. * * SPRING WEEKEND -- There will be a meeting of the Spring Weekend central committee at 7:30 p.m. tonight in room 3K of the Union. * * * INTERNATIONAL CENTER - The International Center will hold its weekly social hour at 4:30 to 6 p.m. tomorrow in the recrea- tion room of the Center. Co-op Council Organizes Recently oriented into the structure of Assembly Association is the Cooperative Council. This Council was set up because the co-op delegates to ADC meet- ings were not concerned about the problems common to large residence halls and did not feel justified in asking ADC's time to solve their own highly specialized problems. The functions of the Council are to consider, analyze and at- tempt to solve problems which arise and are particular to the co- operatives on campus. One area which will be dis- cusses is operational problems which includes enforcement of work schedlules, snack rules and social activities, especially for freshmen. Public relations is another area which will be explored. Co-opers want to build morale within the houses and also correct the mis- conceptions on campus concern- ing co-ops and who lives in them, The co-ops not only want to unify themselves through this council, but they want to be uni- fied with the entire university campus. Membership in the Co-op coun- cil includes one member from each of the three University co- ops, one member from each of the three ICC co-ops and a mem- ber from Assembly Board. A regular delegate to the ADC reports back to the Council in their bi-monthly meetings. The ADC has the power of re- view over any legislative deci- sions, and the Council will vote in ADC matters, holding one vote for each girl present at the meet- ing.

In past years, audiences en- joyed the whimsical antics of the all-male Union Opera. Last year the Opera took its final bows and passed forever from the college scene. Over 400 men and women at- tended the MUSKET mass meet- ing last week. Chairman Don Medalie described the interest in the new show as "overwhelming." He predicted that MUSKET will become firmly established as a campus institution.

"Brigadoon" is the story of Tommy Allbright, an American hunter who is lost in the Scottish Highlands. He stumbles upon a village not on the map called "Brigadoon." Tommy falls in love with a pert and lovely lass named Fiona MacLaren. He learns that Brigadoon was m i r a c u l o u s l y blessed two hundred years ago and that it lapsed into a sleep from which it awakens only one day in every hundred years. Villagers cannot leave the town but a stranger can stay if he falls in love and is willing to give up everything for the sake of that love. Unsure of his love for Fiona, Tommy leaves the village. How- ever, Tommy and Fiona are re- united through a second miracle. 1 k I - (Author of" Barefoot Boy With Cheek,;" e.)

Do you have trouble re- membering names, dates, facts, figures, and the location of the library? Dear friends, it need not be so. All you have to do is master the simple art of mnemonics. Mnemonics, as we all know, was invented by the great Greek philosopher Mnemon in 526 B.C. Mnemonics, in- cidentally, was only one of the many inventions of this fertile Athenian. He is perhaps best known for his in- vention of the staircase, which, as you may imagine, was of inestimable value to mankind. Before the staircase, people who wished to go from floor to floor had to leap from springboards. This meant, of course, that aged and infirm persons were forced to live out their lives, willy- nilly, on the ground floor, and many of them grew cross as bears. Especially Demosthenes, who was elected con- sul of Athens three times but never served because he was unable to get up to the office of the commissioner of oaths on the third floor to be sworn in. But after Mnemon's staircase was invented, Demos- thenes got up to the third floor easy as pie and took the oath-to Athens' sorrow, as it turned out. Demosthenes, his temper shortened by years of confinement to the ground floor, soon embroiled his countrymen in a series of senseless and costly wars with the Persians, the Visigoths, and the Ogallala Sioux. He was voted out of office in 517 B.C., and Mnemon, who had made his accession pos- sible, was pelted to death with fruit salad in the Duomo. 0 Y ":".!. 'N".,r}:}.'.".}: :1" :ti:"°J.

We were discussing mnemonics, which are nothing more than aids to memory -catchwords or jingles that help you to remember names, dates, and places. For example, any student of American history surely knows the little jingle: Columbus sailed the ocean blue In fourteen hundred ninety two. You see how simple a mnemonic is? There is no rea- son why you can't make up your own. Say, for instance, that you are proceeding with American history. The Pilgrims landed on Plymouth Rock In sixteen hundred twenty, doc. (This jingle is especially useful to medical students.) The next important event is the Boston Tea Party. Let us compose a rough-and-ready couplet about that: Samuel Adams flung the tea Into the briny Zuyder Zee. You can see how simple and useful they are - not only for history, but also for current events. For instance, In nineteen hundred fifty six n ,L ^A -- f 4 *n f -rlr SCIENCE MAJORS LL}(.
