Dsana Petersoa Circulation Maaacw Ivy Day . . . Ivy Day, oh, Ivy Day, Tradition long revered, Happy day or gloomy day, Day of customs weird. Ivy Day, oh, Ivy Day, Long revered tradition, Day of joy, day of tears, Day of coalition. Tradition of Nebraska traditions, Ivy Day, returns to the campus tomorrow in practically all of its prewar pag- entry. For the forty-fifth time, the students and faculty o the university will join the townspeople in paying homage to a queen of the May. For the first time in three years the queen and her court will wear formal dresses and, if the rain holds off for the day, will tread the white aisle across the grass of the old campus. The planting of the ivy, the songs offered to the Queen in the sorority and fraternity sings, the entrance of the ivy and daisy chains, all interwoven with thoughts of beauty and wisdom from the Ivy Day Poet and Orator make up the pagentry of the day. Ivy Day is an experience which is a taste of college that cannot be gleaned from a textbook Rounded out by the suspense and thrills of the making of new members of Mortar Board, and next year again of In nocents, Ivy Day is day time of laughter, excitement, and beauty. It is dearer to us because it is tradition, because for the first time in several of those 45 years we can again de vote ourselves to a day of beauty and happiness.

Are you worried? Do seniors shun you? Do you have nightmares in black and gold technicolor? Try the quick relief, the sure remedy CINESRA. CINESRA is Arsenic, spelled, backwards. See your local druggist for CINESRA, the end of your troubles!). Which more or less serves to introduce the subject of junior women, whose prototype may be found in many American colleges and universities. How about this junior woman- stuff? Seems logi cal a junior woman is a third year female college student, but the big girls pooh-pooh this idea. So ya' ask 'em what is a junior woman.' so they don't know, but with an arch lifting of the right eyebrow, they say they can tell you WHO is a junior woman. Ok, you say, WHO is a junior woman? And then they get coy and won't tell. Maybe! So, maybe the juniors know what or who is a junior woman. So you ask a junior coed and she either kicks you, doesn't know or glances apprehensively over her shoulder and tears off to run over to the west stadium for one of the big girls. Somebody told you sophomores know everything or think they do. So you ask a sophomore what a junior woman is. "Just a min ute," she says, and pulls a list out of her pocket. "I have on this paper," she says, "a complete and unabridged compilation of every thing said by huddled groups of Mortar Boards in the Crib. I am selling copies to juniors for the infinitesimal sum of two bucks. Just make out a check. And there i s no point in ask- ng a freshman anyway! Anybody besides the Mortar Boards know who, what, why or how is a junior woman? Turn in any information to Ginsburg.

The "Congo," an interpretative dance in surrealistic form is the featured number on the program. Based on the poem, "The Congo," by Vachel Lindsay, the choreog raphy illustrates the basic Negro savagery, their irrepressible high spirits and the hope of their re ligion. The accompaniment pre sents a syncopated pattern pro vided by a chanted group record ing. The record was made by a speaking chorus under the direc tion of Mr. Clarence Flick of the speech department. According to Irma Lou Fisher, Orchesis presi dent, the number is an infectious, blend of rhythm and ragtime compelling in its vitality and wild imagination. . In a gay, light mood of the pro gram are provocative renditions as "Household Daze," a solo by Mrs. Stanley Maly, jr., and group ar rangements called: "Tweedleum and Tweedledee," "The Gardener," "Pickup," "Gymnopedia," and 'Humpty Dumpty's Song." The other part of the perform ance, "Invitation to the Dance," inludes presentations of the Waltz, Tango, Mazurka, Rhythmic Im pressions and Scherzo. Sponsored jointly by the depart ment of physical education for women and the Women's Athletic association, Orchesis is directed by Dr. Aileene Lockhart and assisted by Mrs. Stanley Maly, jr., Mrs. H. H. Flood serves as group ac companist. Members of Orchesis are Irma Lou Fisher, Anna Aasen, Janice Becher, Myra Lee Hadan, Peggy Maly, Donna McCandless, Patricia Meyer, Myrtis Rider, Patricia Toof, Eunice Way, Elaine Asmussen, Marilyn Duffack, Marian Falloon, Evelyn Garton, Elizabeth Lamb, Jean Leinberger, Dorothy Meshier, Doris Olson, Billie Steelman and Adrienne Waggoner.
