Plans for Dartmouth's 27th annual Winter Carnival on February 5 and 6 give advance indications of one of the gayest and most elaborate winter festivals in the history of the Dartmouth Outing Club. From the bustling offices of Robinson Hall come reports of everything under control except the unseasonable weather, which has hindered work on the Outdoor Evening pond and on "The Wolf Wind," which Wayne M. Guyther '38 has designed as the theme for the campus ice sculpture.
In addition to the ski meet, which will feature the participation of a Swiss university team, Dartmouth will face Harvard in hockey and swimming and Yale in basketball. Outdoor Evening will drop the foreign fairy-tale motif of past years and instead will be a staccato winter revue entitled "Winter Tempo." The Dartmouth Players and the Handel Society are joining forces to present The ChocolateSoldier on both nights, the Glee Club will give its Winter Carnival concert, and fraternity dances and general skiing and skating will round out the program. More than a thousand college girls are expected to invade Hanover for what has become the most famous winter festival in the country.

Willcox Brown '37, Montchanin, Del., member at large; Morse A. Cartwright '37, Scars- dale, N. Y., entertainment; Dean Chamberlin '26, Hanover, member at large; John H.
