THE MICHIGAN DAILY _ _ I PuS S CIETY Spring Styles For Men Fe( Unique Patterns, More 'Hedda Gabier' Opes Before A Colorful House Campus Celebrities And Faculty Members Attend Special Preview A gala company of Ann Arbor ce- lebrities and near celebrities watched the trials and tribulations of Hedda Gabler at the preview of Play Pro- duction's presentation of Ibsen's play last night at the Mimes Theatre. Dean Alice Lloyd, Jeannette Perry, assistant dean of women, and Dr. H. E. Schultz were present, and the 0. J. Campbells, en famille, with daughter Emily wearing a smart combination of brown and grey. The League trio represented by Ethel Mc- Cormick, Alta Atkinson and Emily White were present and Dean W. R. Humphrey and Mrs. Humphrey, seated close by, seemed to be enjoy- ing themselves greatly. During intermissions we caught glimpses of Dr. R. J. Saunders of the philosophy department and Prof. G. E. Densmore of the speech de- partment enjoying a between act cigarette. Prof. C. L. Meader of the general linguistic department, and Mr. and Mrs. J. N. Lincoln of the Spanish department, R. J. Nelson of the English department, Prof. T. S. Vander Vort of the German depart- ment, Eric Walters of the English de- partment, Mrs. Walters, and Mr. Charles R. Knudson of the French department were other faculty mem- bers noticed. Those prominent in campus circles who attended were Francis Manches- ter, chairman of this year's J. G. P., wearing a long flowing powder blue crepe; Ann Verner of Comedy Club in an exotic gown of figured crepe with an odd decollete in back that formed a very short jacket covering the shoulders but leaving the waist bare, and Myrtle Cooper in a well- fitting frock of black satin. Billie Johnson of Comedy Club and Harry Allen, '33A, prominent in dra- matic circles, were both there. Others we noticed from Comedy Club were Isabel Bonicave, '34, in a quaint for- mal of old rose taffeta featuring a' tiny ruffled cape; Robert Hogg, '34; Dorothy Dishman, 535, in powder blue crepe with a tiny turbin of the same material, and Ann Evans, '34, in a flowing crepe formal. Blue seemed a favorite color last night. One notable frock in pale blue satin was banded at the hips and at the shoulders with brown sable, while a royal blue crepe formal was set off to good advantage by gold sequins encircling the shoulders. A Sunday night frock in powder blue crepe had a top of velvet fastening down the front with rhinestone buttons. A clever treatment of the popular mousseline de soie was noticed on a pale pink frock of flat crepe. The organdy-like material was gathered in large ruffles overthe shoulders. An inverted V-shaped decolletage on a white crepe frock trimmed with rhinestone and a hunters green model with thin straps of brown satin and an oblong decollete were two ef- fective gowns. -The ostrich feather motif was well carried out on a lip- stick red gown with the fluffy feath- ers bordering the neckline and back. Glee Club Sings At Jordan Hall Tea Members Of Last Year's Junor Play,.No Wan's Land Debate Squad Wins Decision At Ohio State Women Uphold Negative View On Federal Radio Commission Question The negative team of Michigan's women's debate squad won the de- bate held with Ohio State Tuesday night in the University Hall audi- torium at Columbus. Michigan's team consisting of Gladys Baker, '33, Ethel Howard, '35, and Alice Gilbert, '33 debated the negative side of the question, "Resolved, That the Federal Radio Commission Should be empowered to organize all rac(Io broadcasting. stations into a single, monopolistic concern under federal control." The decision was given by Howard Higgins of Miami University, who acted as critic judge. This debate with Ohio State is the last major debate of the season for the women's team. The season concluded Tuesday night was to have included a debate with the University of Indiana, how- ever that University was forced to forefit its decision to Michigan be- cause of lack of funds to sponsor a trip to Ann Arbor. However, a debate with Northwest- ern was arranged for the affirma- tive team, and they met the North- western negative team at Elkhart, By CARELTON MASON, JR., Hints of spring in the air are al-1 ready bringing men out of mourning as far as their dress is concerned. Al though spring itself is really some distance away as yet, this is the time to think of what one is going to wear on campus, tea-dancing afternoons, playing golf and tennis, and just knocking around. Spring offerings of clothing houses are something to gladden the heart of any man who has been weighed down all winter by the solemnity ofr the things he has been forced to wear. Even suitings reflect the general' trend toward dress that is more colorful, as well as more comfortable. Unfinished worsteds see mto occupy the center of the stage for this sea- son. They are distinctive in many ways, for they come in soft shades that are necessary to properly bring out the prevailing patterns. Also they lack the stiffness that has been characteristic of men's suits in the past. This is made possible by more careful tailoring which gives a fin- ished product that is lighter, softer, and consequently much more com- fortable. Checks, plaids, and chalk stripes seem to be the most widely favored Ind., halfway point between the two colleges. This debate was not a suc- cessful one for Michigan since they lost the decision by a vote of the high school audience. During the season, several minor debates were held with Albion Col- lege, Michigan State Normal at Ypsi- lanti, and the Michigan State Col- lege. Floyd K.

The society has undertaken this project because the members felt that there was a definite need for worthwhile children's entertainment.
