WEEK END OF MAY FESTIVAL
PROVES GAY TIME IN SOCIETY
PRESENT PORGY HERE'
Theatre Guid Suecess On Tour Only
A Week; Ann Arbor Will Have
Two Performances7
OCT. 31 IS PROBABLE DATE
"Porgy," New York dramatic suc-
cess, is being brough to Ann Arbor
by the Michigan Alumnae, and will
appear at the Whitney theatre for
two performances. Mrs. W. B. Hend-
erson, executive secretary of the Al-
umnae Council, has announced the
probable date as Wednesday, Oct. 31.
The same cast that appeared at the
Masonic Temple in Detroit will ap-
pear in the Ann Arbor production.
Reservations arealready being tak-
en at the Alumni office, Room;A, Me-
morial hall, and the prices will be
the regular Whitney prices, ranging
from $3.50 to $2.00. Attention is called
to all persons that reservations can
be made now and paid for in the fall,
thus securing excellent seats for both
theafternoon and evening perform-
ances.
"Porgy" is the most outstanding
Theatre Guild production of the year,
and is placed on tour for one week
only. Ann Arbor is most fortunate in
securing one of these days. The pro-
duction goes directly to Chicago from
here where it will play indefinitely.
"Porgy" has an, all colored cast and
has played to capacity houses in New
York and Detroit. Several of the Ann
Arbor people who saw the play In
Detroit have already made reserva-
tions for the Ann Arbor production,
thereby expressing the feling that
"Porgy" is a play which can be seen
again and again. The negro spirituals
sing in the play are In themselves
worth the price of admission, accord-
ng to current report..
ANN ARBOR TOWNE
Ann Arbor on a rainy day. A show-
er at 8 o'clock otaches everyone on
their way to class. Goodness know's,
8 o'clocks are bad enough without hav-
ing to sit throu.gh them with wet feet.
It rains hard at first, then subsides to
a gentle shower, which is still wet
enough to be uncomfortable, however.
The usual flood may be found under
the Engineers arch. Such clever men
a's the engineers should be able to do
something about it. Perhaps they de-
rive a certain amusemeit, though,
from watching people splash through.
Throngs of students-nd oters
registered in the university-hurry
across campus. As the zero hour
draws near, th crowd thins out and
soon there are only a few belated
stragglers. Some have a worried ex-
pression, as if they were really sorry
to be late. Others poke along in the
hope that they will be so late that it
would be actually rude to annoy the
professor by entering after he has be-
gun his lecture.
At the beginning of the next hour it
is still raining, but ith stops for a few
minutes and the sun comes out. The
many hued slickers of the women
glisten. The men themselves are like
little-rays of sunshine in their gleam-
ing yellow raincoats. It is warm, and
the air is sweet with the odor of
spring. Even wet feet and the thought
of the bluebook coming the next hour
can't .entirely overcome the feeling
that Ann Arbor on a rainy day in
spring is pretty nice after all.
CODE RECOGNIZES
MEXICAN WOMEN
The rights of Mexican women, in
everything except unrestricted suf-
frage, are recognized in the new Fed-
,eral civil code, scheduled for promul-
gation shortly. Women reeive full
rights to participate in any activity
without impediment, and obtain an
equal share in the rearing and edu-
cation of children. They have the
right for the first time to act as trus-
tees and administrator's. A wife need
no longer have the consent of her hus-
hand to engage in any profession.
Martha Norelius, Kansas university
swimmer, broke the world's record
for the 600 yard free style race.
Entertainment for Lantern night
guests and music lovers have en-
livened the social calendar for the
past week. Many Alumnae have re-
turned for the Lantern night Pere-
monies, while the Festival has at-
tracted its usual quota of visitors.
Sororities which have not already en-
tertained their mothers have taken
this opportunity to have house par-
ties for them.
