Jewish Youth's
LISTENING
POST
By DANNY RASKIN
The League of Detroit Jewish
Youth's need for a paid execu-
tive secretary is becoming more
evident daily. Without one, the
League may suffer disorganiza-
tion.
Before leaving for service, Ru-
ben Gold, as president, toiled
endlessly and without him the
business almost invariably was
left unfinished. When he de-
parted, there was no one to take
over. Then Diana Rosenblatt, as
vice president, took control of
the situation. It was mainly
through her efforts that the
League continued its good work.
When she left Detroit to take a
summer job, there was difficulty
again. Only through the com-
bined efforts of a very few per-
sons, was the unfinished material
completed.

IN THE ARMY QUOTES . . .
"Don't let anybody kid you about
those hula hula beauties. Give
me the American gals." Pvt.
Harold H. Sitron . . . "I've got
so many needles in my arms, I
actually look like a container for
a sewing circle." Pvt. Joe Hoot-
ner . . . "When I read about all
those strikes in the old home
town, I had to laugh. Here I am,
getting up before the rooster,
carrying thousands of tons on
my back, walking millions of
miles, getting dressed and mak-
ing my bed in two seconds,
shooting a gun which kicks my
shoulder, and they're beefing be-
cause they need an extra dollar
to eat what they want, sleep in
comfort, go to all the high-spots,
wear different colored clothes
and sleep all day Sunday. I've
been laughing so long, that my
lower molar is sueing my upper
for non-compatibility."— Aerial
Engineer Bob Shan.

Ancient Fineries
Steeped in Tragedy,
Mystery, Romance
2,000 Years of Frills and Fads—
Apparel of Kings, Queens,
Shown at Crowley's
Fashions marching t h r o u g h
2,000 years of frills and fads,
have paused briefly to stand in
review Sept. 5 to 14 before De-
troit. Mary, Queen of Scots,
Shakespeare, Oliver Cromwell,
Good Queen Bess, Roman Em-
perors—all have contributed ac-
cessories for the cavalcade of
fashion being displayed in the
windows at Crowley's.
Evolution of Fashion
Shown for the first time in De-
troit, this privately-owned collec-
tion gathered painstakingly
throughout Europe, Asia, and the
Americas, includes priceless
pieces, actual garments worn by
belles of years gone by, telling
an unforgettable story of re-
mance, glamour, mystery and
tragedy, as well as the evolution
of fashion and the customs of
yesteryears.
The collection of gloves, some
dating back to 1000 A. D., in-
cludes a pair of dark brown
leather, edged in silk fringe,
worn by Oliver Cromwell. Other
famous curios in the glove ex-
hibition are the gloves worn by
Mary Queen of Scots, when she
was executed, an iron glove that
shielded the hand of a knight in
the jousts of 1450, the gloves of
Shakespeare, even coronation
gloves worn by Roman Emperors
about 1200 A. D.
Silk Stockings of 1560
There are silk stockings worn
in the time of Queen Elizabeth,
1560, a pair of gold thread hose
coveted by princesses about 1780,
men's socks of Macedonia, 200
years old, as well as a selection
of very fancy stockings worn up
to th€ 1900's.
More than 300 priceless pieces
comprise thihs interesting and
educational exhibit. The public is
invited.
Belkin's grand job on these pro-
jects merits large applause also
. . . The Diplomats' dance, to be
held soon, will feature one of
the most famous bands' in the
country . . . Watch for it . . .
Tennis stars Jack Schlesinger
and Irving Bloomfield renewed
their friendly rivalry over a
corned beef sandwich at Boes-
ky's last week . . . Although a
great many boys have left, there
may be more fall and winter
"entertainments" than have been
in recent years, because of the
vast morale uplifting program.
