LU - HI - NEST BALL
The Lu-Hi Nest Ball, the Sec-ond
Annual dance presented by
the Council of Faiths, will be
held TOMORROW evening, April
2, from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m. at the
Knights of Columbus Hall, on
Grand Avenue in Baldwin. At
the dance, which is semi-formal,
there will be door prizes for the
lucky ticket holders. Tickets
will cost you only $2.50 per
couple. They are on sale daily
in the Tech Building at noon,
and in Knapp Hall at noon and
in the evening.
In case you are wondering
about the name Lu-Hi-Nest, this
will clear up the confusion. The
name is derived by taking the
first two letters of each of the
religious clubs on campus —
Lutheran, Hillel, Newman, and
Student Christian. Thus, the
name Lu-Hi-Nest.
Now that you know where the
name came from, why not come
— to the Lu-Hi-Nest Ball, that
is. Don't forget, April 2,
TOMORROW, from 9 to 1 at the
K of C Hall in Baldwin. And,
best of all, the tickets are only
$2.50 a couple. See you there!

The Tea and Fashion Show,
being sponsored by Student
Council, will be held in Knapp
Hall, beginning at 2:00 p.m. For
a small donation of $1.00, you
can attend this First Annual Tea
and Fashion Show. Boring this
will definitely not be.
SUATI's own girls will model
the fashions from Marion
Clarke, Inc. of Babylon. The
latest styles will pass by, worn
by SUATI models (not profes-sional,
of course). The models
to wear the exquisite fashions by
Marion Clarke will be chosen,
not on previous modeling experi-ence,
but from names submitted
to any Council member or the
RAMBLER.
As an extra for the spectators,
door prizes will be awarded.
Who knows — you may be the
lucky winner of one of the many
prizes, one of which is a mink
collar.
You will want to participate in
the April 9, First Annual Tea
and Fashion Show, even though
not in the capacity of a model.
By becoming a booster, which is
possible by contacting any Stu-dent
Council member, and at-tending
the Tea and Fashion
Show, all SUATIans will partici-pate
in this outstanding event.
Clubs, as well as individuals and
business organizations, can be-come
boosters by purchasing an
ad in the journal that is being
