DRESSES

By SUE RAUNHEIM
Sounds of hammers and saws
are echoing across campus this
week, as students in the various
housing units work on last-minute
details for Homecoming displays.
Because the football game this
Saturday is with Minnesota, most
displays will have something con-
cerning the two teams in their
themes. Some themes are even
based on Elvis Presley.
Besides the 99 displays and the
football game, the annual mud-
bowl game will be played in the
Sigma Alpha Epsilon mudbowl on

Mudbowl Queen Chosen
At this time each year, Phi Delta
Theta fraternity challenges Sigma
Alpha Epsilon to a football game
while students and alumni stand
around cheering. An importantf
part of this event is the choosing
of a mudlbowl queen during half-
time. Sororities choose a male1
student who they dress up as a fe-
male and present to the judgesf
who choose a winner based on
originality, humor, femininity and
cleverness.
This year's mudbowl game will
be held at 9:15 a.m. Saturday(
morning. The annual Taylor-Gom-f
berg House Tug-Q'-War across the
Huron River is slated for 10 a.m.
Saturday.
In addition to these festivities,
the annual Homecoming Dance
will be presented Saturday night
in the Intramural Building.
Count Basie and his orchestra
will be on hand to provide music
for dancing and the Psurfs, law
school singing group will sing
some selections at intermission.
Stunts on Diagonal
To publicize this homecoming
weekend, stunts will be performed
on the diagonal at 1 p.m. each af-
ternoon this week. Today Roman
caricatures will be portrayed and
Friday a coffin theme will be car-
ried out with 12 persons in the skit.
As far as campus historians are
concerned, Homecoming seems to
be the forgotten holiday.

Old records indicate that home-I
coming began as far back as 1897
when the alumni came back to
campus to play the Varsity football
game.
Beyond those facts, the rest is
a mystery. Alumni Association of-
ficials have expressed the belief
that IFC has something to do with
Homecoming's orgination. An old
issue of The Daily stated that IFC
formally established the day in
1933.
No one at the Office of Student
Affairs, The Athletic Administra-
tion Publicity Office or Student
Government could add to the in-
formation.
Files of the Michigan Historical
Collection also failed to yield fur-
ther information.

INoun

By PAT NORTON
House Athletic Managers shoved
aside their usual bi-weekly busi-
ness meeting yesterday afternoon
to say thanks to Dr. Margaret
Bell.
Dr. Bell, the director of the
Women's Physical Education De-
partment here at the University,
had the House Athletic Managers'
Handbook dedicated to her.
As the dedication in the front of
the booklet says, "Dr. Bell has been
an invaluable guide for women in-
terested in the philosophies oft
sports, dance and recreation."
Expresses Surprise
She was completely taken by
surprise as she read the dedica-
tion, after a coed had given her a
platter of the newly published
handbooks.
Arriving at the University in
1923, Dr. Bell has always made it
her practice to let coeds formulate
their own philosophy.
Perhaps she is known best for
her instilling in students the in-
trinsic values which each coed
receives as a member of the Wom-
en's AthleticsAssociation. She
tries to impress upon the coeds
the fact that "a woman's experi-
ences are truly manifested, after
her college days are over, through
her famliy."
Through Her Help
The WAA has seen a closer link
International Center
The International Center's
weekly social hour, usually held
at the Center will be held at
4:30 to 6 p.m. today in Rackham
Assembly Hall as part of the
United Nations Week celebra-
tion. All interested persons may
attend.

between them and the department
of physical education, achieved a
development of Lantern Night into
a campus tradition and materiali-
zation of the Women's Swimming
Pool through the courage, determi-
nation, enthusiasm and support of
Dr. Bell.
After Carol Klein, vice-president
of the WAA, made a few an-
nouncements about coming events
dealing with coed athletics the
women had punch and cookies to
eat.
Dr. Bell, in her familiar, soft
deep voice said as she was leaving,
"I am in a state of shock."
