Ruthven since their re- ent trip to Egypt. This is the largest ttendance this season at one of the ednesday afternoon affairs and at- ests to the growing popularity of hese informal gatherings at the hos- itable Ruthven home on South Uni- ersity Ayenue. Edward McCormick, '34, secretary f the Union, and Grace Mayer, '34, eague president, poured. Although he teas are always open to all stu- ents, it has become customary to xtend special invitations to certain raternities and sororities each time. 'esterdcay Delta Ganma, Chi Omega, nd Alpia Xi Delta sororities were avited, and Theta Xi, Phi Gamma )elta, and 2Xi Psi Phi fraternities. The first spring-like day brought . galaxy of cheerful frocks. Miss vayer wore a navy blue dress with dhite collar and cuffs and a blue and ihite hat with turned-back brim. iss Ethel McCormick, director of he League, who assisted Mrs. Ruth- en s hostess, also chose navy blue nd a smart off-the-face hat, and ulia Kane, '36, wore blue with gay leckered collar and cuffs.

For in- ance the deep and unusual shades f nail polish favored during the past onths have been replaced by na- oral tints. The dark ruby color formerly worn rith all types' of dress is now only sed, and rarely then, for formal ear. White gowns call for this shade any do; and it is with the startling mplicity obtainable in black and 'hite that the dark polish proves #fective.' There will always be those exotic eople who create their atmosphere y means of the unusual. One cam- us show informs us that there have een demands for green and lavendar olish, 'while fashion centers broad- ast the novelty stencils to be applied > each nail. Yet on a conservative ampus, only the distinctive indivi- ualists can venture such risque 'ends. On the whole, for both campus and )rmal wear, the lighter tints are Lost widely used. They are the color- :ss, the natural, rose, coral, and shell Hades, all of which harmonize with ny color of dress. G P Grorp TJo Meet Fr Lrnwheon The International Group of the ,.A.U.W. is giving a luncheon at 2:15 p. m. Saturday in the main ining room of the League.

Why does. the University sponsor riflery for women? It's a sport. Moreover it is the only inter- collegiate sport a co-ed is entitled to participate in. That the members of the varsity have a keen eye may be proved from the fact that all of them score in the 90's, that is, they hit a target the size of a dime at a distance of 50 feet. The Michigan team won 16 out of 27 matches and tied one last year. Prospects for victory are even more favorable this season according to Dorothy Edmands, '34, the Uni- versity's sharpest shooter. Not only is riflery unique in that it is the only intercollegiate sport for women but also in that its tourna- ments are conducted through the mail. Neither side ever views its D.A.R.

The five highest of these scores are selected and mailed to the competing university. Besides the more serious tourna- ments, such contests as shoulder to shoulder matches with the R.Q.T.C. men are held. The men defeated the women last Januaryby eight-tenths of a point and will be challenged by the women to a return match some time in March. Tea will be served in the lounge following the contest. Since the team is a member of the National Rifle Association, the gov- ernment furnishes the University with rifles, ammunition, and targets. A telescope worth $1,000 arrived on Monday. With this the scorer from behind the lines is able to determine the spot where the bullet strikes. The range is laid in the basement of the Women's Athletic Building op- posite the bowling alleys. The wo- men, garbed in slacks and sailor pants, lie on saw dust mattresses and shoot at paper targets suspended fromi wires at the farther end of the room. The team is most fortunate in having as its coach, Captain Arthur B. Custis, who has both the patience and experience to obtain the best results.

For the most part, the designs are worked out in patterns developed from such homely plant forms as the tulip, the lily; or the oak leaf. Even the geranium and the hydrangea are converted into stylized motifs. The many ornamental uses of plant forms are suggested on the various cards displayed. Jacket designs, mag- azine advertisements, textile prints, wall paper and tile designs are but a few of the many ideas suggested. One of the most interesting items in the collection is a jacket design for W. H. Hudson's "Green Mansions." It is the work of a student from the New York School of Fine and Applied Arts, and consists of a sim- plified floral design done i varying shades of green. Another interesting contribution is "The Paradise of the Pacific," a symmetrical study in orange and brown The exhibit is sponsored by the Federation for the cultivation of taste and the development of the arts. It is open daily, except Sunday, from 9 a. m. to 6 p. m. until Feb. 26. S wyent s Marriage Is Mr. and Mrs. J. S.
