MUSIC IS PROGRESSING
Work has been going forward rap-
idly in all phases in preparation for
the production of "For the Love of
Pete," 24th annual Junior Girls' Play,
to appear at the Whitney theater the
week of March 19.
In addition to the intensive rehear-
sals of both cast and choruses, junior
women have plied sewing machines,
written songs, and solicited advertis-
ing, according to Elizabeth Wellman,
chairman of the play. Parlor C of
Newberry hall has been turned into a
veritable Parisian house of fashion,
with vari-colored fabrics piled on all
sides and ingenious costumes suspend-
ed in the air. The music committee,
under Edna Mower, also repcirts pro-
gress and promises several captivat-
ingtunes for the :coming perform-
.ance.

Hathaway, assistant chairman of the
play, of the following committee as-

That women are more adaptable to
portrait work than m.en, is the opin-
ion exlress:d by John Koch, a talent-
ed young Ann Arbor artist. Two of
his portrait paintings are soon to
come here in the exhibit of 60 pictures
selected from the Scarab Clubs' show
sponsored by the Detroit Art museum.
sored by the Detroit Art museum.
"If, in the field of artistic effort it
is ever possible to speak in general-
ities with any degree of accuracy,"
the artist stated, qualifying his state-
ment, "I may say that I find women
rather more adaptable to portrait
work than men. Nevertheless, por-
traiture is usually concerned with a
commission, and the painter has little
to say about the matter.
"There is nothing more totally ab-
horrent to me than flagrantly-voiced
opinions of an immature art student.
They are all dogma and little intelli-
gence. and so I readily admit there is
bound to be a considerable variety of
feelings on this subject.
:"For me, there is a great deal more
pictorial charm to be found in the
dress, coiffeur, and general effect of
a woman's toillette than there is in
that of a man's. The lovely play of
lights upon fabric of fine texture and
pattern; the brilliant color effects-
these are possible only in the por-
trait of a woman. It is the remark-
able artist who is able to create a
thing of beauty in the portrait of a
man, dressed in the conventional
mode. Sargent has done this, partly
through distinctive posing, and partly
through sheer technical perfection.
But a man's costume is hopelessly
standardized. A thing even more true
now than in previous periods."
"However," said Mr. Kock, shrug-
ging his shoulders, and lifting a brush
to the background of an unfinished
portrait, depicting a girl, "women are
invariably more meticulous about de-
tails than men. Many-of them are ex-
cessively insistent about the exact
line of the hair, the arrangement of a
string of beads, details often both
ridiculous and distracting to a paint-
er attempting to find something of
greater and more subtle importance.
Men on the other hand are quite will-
ing to give the painter entire free-
dom. Yet from the standpoint of por-
traiture I confess a preference for
women models.
F[UND FOR RUILOING -
In an effort to add to the funds
which the Undergraduate campaign
committee have additionally sub-j
scribed to the building funds of the
Women's league several bridge teas
are being planned to which all wom-
en of Ann Arbor and particukarly
University women are invited to par-
ticipate.
The date has been set a; March
31, as the time that these teas are to3
be given, and on this day every sor-'
ority and dormitory on the campus is
to hold a tea. The charge -to playr
bridge will be 75 cents per person or
$3 a table for one person making upc
a table. Playing will begin at 2d
o'clock and last until 5 o'clock. The
guests may include patronesses as
well a3 guests of the women acting
as hosteses at these teas.
The refreshments, which. will be
served during the afternoon are to be
paid for with 15 per cent of the total
amount of money which the house
takes in through its guests. In form-j
er years many of the houses have don-
ated their refreshments thereby giv-
ing the league the entire amount o
money taken in through the teus.
Up to date no league houses have
been included in the houses which
are to sponsor teas but if any desire
to have teas they may easily do so by
calling Margaret Bush, '30, 7817, who
is in charge of all the bridge teas
which are to be given. By working
together several lea'gue houses may
give teas.
MAKE PLANS FOR

ments. The carnival will feature two

ketball game which will begin at 7

Major School Teams SPORTS INCLUDE SKATING
1 iT 'T'~-
Leac in T1wo Games
In both of the interclass basket-
ball games played at 4 o'clock yes-
terday in Barbour gymnasium, the
teams from the major school won.
The first game between junior ma-
jors and senior academic teams was
not particularly exciting as the final
score, 51-3 in favor of the juniora
m;ajors showed. The junior forwards,
Miller and Zauer, especially Zauer,
did their usual good work shooting I
difficult baskets and rarely missing.
The W. A. A. skating party which
was held Wednesday at the Coliseum
on Hill street, .proved to be a huge
success, in spite of the fact that the
ice was sloppy and the weather
raither poor for skating. Music fur-
nished by the Coliseum piano tended
to liven up the party. Those who
managed the party expressed regretj
that more people who were not mem-
bers of W. A. A. did not come and
in that way find out what W. A. A.
was all about.
