Heinrich Drier of Dansig, Germany, and Erich Pfeiffer of Stutgartt, Germany, who are in Detroit at the present time, will act as delegates from the foreign organizations at the Ann Arbor con- gress. Students will arrive here tomorrow from every section of the country for the sessions of the federation. Call- fornia will be represented by dele- gates from several universities and colleges of the Pacific coast state. A total of more than 160 leading col- leges and universities are sending men or women student delegates, the co- educational institutions to be repre- sented by both. Arrive Tomorrow The delegates will begin arriving to- morrow morning. They will be met at the trains by members of the Stu- dent council and other students and then escorted to the Union for regis- tration. All students having automo- biles who can assist in the reception of the delegates and provide trans- portation from the depot to the Union, at any time tomorrow are requested to telephone Kenneth Michel, '27A, at 4418. The purpose of the Federation which will open its second annual convention here tomorrow was re-~ cently outlined by the executive com- mittee of the organization following its permanent formation a year ago at the Student World Court confer- once held at Princeton, N. J. The specific aims are as follows: 1. To achieve a spirit of coopera- tion among the students of different colleges throughout the country to the end that the experience of one shall! inure to the advantage of all. 2. To develop understanding be- tween the students of American and foreign countries. 3. To further an intelligent student opinion on questions of national and international importance. The Federation has been endorsed by men prominent in national life and educational centers. Among those who have expressed themselves as heartily in favor of the new organi- zation are John W. Davis, the Demo- cratic nominee for President of the Uniteda States in 1924, President Ray Layman Wilbur of Leland Stanford university, and Manley O. iludson, Bemis professor of international law! at Harvard. Daivis Is Gratified In commenting upon the Federation and its purpose Mr. Davis said: "I am glad to avail myself of the opportunity to endorse the foundation of the National Student federation. It is gratifying, indeed, to find the youth of our land manifesting a deep inter- cst in the development of an intelli-! gent influence on questions of na- tional importance and the fostering of an enduring world peace. If these worthy purposes are kept constantly in view, the Federation cannot fail to wield a very helpful influence on pub-~ lic opinion. I wish the Federation every success, with an ever-widening sphere of usefulness." SUNDERLAND WILL ATTEND MEETING ON LAW REFORM Prof. E. R. Sunderland of the Law School, will spend the rest of this week in New York city attending a meeting of the American Bar associa- tion committee on Jurisprudence and Law Reform, of which he is a member.

The Opera now practical- ly awaits the curtain at its initial per- formance at the Whitney theater, Monday night. All of the costumes, with the ex- ception of gowns for a single number, are now here, and most of the trap- pings have arrived from Chicago, in- eluding the 400 pairs of shoes to be worn in the production, and most of the many creates of paraphernalia which will be used in the various numbers. Will Carry 5 Trunks More costumes will be worn in this year's Opera than in any previous production, the equipage of the com- pany on it vacation itinerary actually requiring 57 trunks for the costumes exclusive of the personal wardrobes of the members of the cast. The "wom- en" of the choruses will make 15 com- plete changes of costume and the men will make 8 during the course of each presentation. The plot and settings of "Front Page Stuff" afford a more colorful production this year than the Opera has ever attempted. In the second act, the "Lady of the Snows" number is the most lavish ever attempted in any Opera. In this number, whih in- ludes a dance by 16 snowmen, and, a specialty ballet chorus, remarkable ighting effects, one or two of which have never been employed before, will be made possible through the use of a variety of costume material. The "Lady of the Snows" parade gowns in this number, all in white, are of lace, contrasted with pearls and silver. The white fur, velvet and rhinestones of this scene together the elaborate and beautiful head- dresses, will combine to make this an unusually spectacular number. The full length, white satin, ballet cos- tumes, with skirts of imported French glazed tarleton, will aid in this light- ing effect through their changing ap- pearance under different colors. Sev- eral gowns in the lace number are direct copies of those intthe Follies Bergere, secured through the Parsian studio of Lester. In "The Friendly Gaie of Golf" number, in which both the women' and men's chorus and the specialty dancers take part, with the leading lady, the "women of the chorus will wear smart, Parisian golf dresses, in white and tangerine, embroidered in white and black. The six specialty dancersnwill wear similar creations, but of different color combinations, ranging in pastel shades of green, tiirquois, lavender, alsace, pink and yellow. William M. Lewis, '29, the leading lady, will wear an original imported Paris model in this number. The "Rose Waltz" number will gown the women's chorus in costumes of rose and pink tones, trinmed with myriads of yards of pink .ostrich. The "Style Parade," featuring the authentic changes in style from 1990 to 1930, will include the full period shirt of 1900, its jahea aid jaunty tam, the tight fitting gown ofj1908 "Flora-Dora" period, time tight skirt of 1914 with its daring side slit, the up-to-the-minute style of today's en- semble frock and the probable Miss of 1930. Another number unusually pic- turesque, will be a specialty number featuring mediaeval costumes of varie- gated and harmonizing colors with appliques of contrasting motifs, offset in rhinestone and silver trimming. Still other , costumes of particular splendor will be those worn by the women's chorus in one number of solid gold frisette, coral trimmed, and modelled after the latest Paris models. These will be used by the chorus for the first time in any stage presenta- tion. Wear Gold Tuxedos The men's chorus will appear in different numbers matching those -of the women, with a chorus of cloth of gold tuxedos, with black satin court knickers, and in complete full dress, having cutaway suits, with fancy i , , l a, , C i E s n _ I
