Mosher-Jordan Seniors T
Honor Juniors Today At
Party
Spring entertainment began with
a large number of rushing teas and
dinners. The juniors of Jordan Hall1
will honor the seniors at a party fol-
lowing the opening performance of
the Junior Girl's Play.
Phi Kappa Sigma
Phi Kappa Sigma entertained six

Pi Beta ,Phi
Pi Beta Phi entertained with a
rushing tea for 10 girls yesterday.

Arbor, poured. Spring flowers and

tions.
Sigma Kappa Entertained Eight

tulips and white candles.

Windblown Effects
And Bright Colors
,4ccn.1 New Coats
The gay note is struck this season
by out-of-door apparel. In the eve-
ning and for all more or less formal
affairs the conservative or ultra fem-
inine style may be the thing, but on
campus and for all daytime events in
the great out of doors the smart
co-ed chooses to look daring and
dashing, gay and colorful, and just a
bit gypsyish.
The swashbuckling air is created
by the fly-away appearance which
the new windblown effect gives. It
doesn't .matter in which direction
the coat and hat flies, just as long
as it does fly. Some of the new coats
send their fullness swirling to the
front and in others it is streaming
out behind, but in all there is mo-
tion.
The hat has the windblown lines,
too, and here is just a word of warn-
ing. Try to synchronize the lines of
the coat and hat. No one ever saw
a wind, not even one of Ann Ar-
bor's changeable variety, which blew
one part of the costume in one di-
rection and another part the other
way.
Most of the new sport coats are
cut to be worn open over a bright
frock and others carry their own col-
or accents, some dark coats having
sleeves of bright colors.

COLDS NOT FOR CO-EDS
STILLWATER, Okia., March 17-
The sweet young co-eds do not have
as many colds as the members of the
stronger sex.
The "delicate" female goes "nearly
nude, but can take it." In cold wea-
ther the college boy is constantly in
dread of catching a cold, and the
arrayment of heavy clothing as muf-
flers, gloves, shoes, jackets, heavy un-
derwear and overcoats seems to be

Outdoor Club
To Hold Party
At Sylvan Club
Dance To Follow Banquet;
Guests Will Participate
In Afternoon Activities
The Michigan Outdoor Club will
hold the second of its tri-annual
parties Saturday at Sylvan Lake Es-
tates, according to Pauline Wood-
ward, '35, president of the organiza-
tion. Elizabeth Moore, '36, Marian
Wiggin, '36, Helen Stevenson, '35,
Marriette Coffman, '34, Carl Ells-
worth, '34, Lee Coulter, '34, Russell
Anderson, '36, Arthur Wood, '34, and
John Manley, Grad., will assist Miss
Woodward with the arrangements.
The group attending will meet at
1:30 p.m. Saturday at Lane Hall.
They will be transported to the Club
which is aproximately 30 miles from
here in the Outdoor Club covered
truck and in private cars. Persons
interested are urged to make reser-
vations early in the week at Lane
Hall as the quota is already partly
filled. Members will be charged 65
cents and non-members 75 cents for
dinner and transportation.
If the weather proves agreeable
guests will either hike or play golf,
but if snow continues there will be
skiing, skating, and tobogganing.
Cards and other games will take
place indoors.
Following the afternoon activities
a banquet will be held in the main
dining room of the club. After din-
ing the guests will adjourn to the
lounge for an informal dance. A
moonlight hike will be arranged for
those persons preferring the trail.
Dr. and Mrs. E. W. Blakeman, Mr.
and Mrs. George Alder, and Mr. and
Mrs. Lee Klaer will chaperone. Sev-
eral members of the faculty will also
attend.
In response to the demand for a
club combining social and athletic
interests, the Michigan Outdoor Club
made its start at a similar meeting
last year. It sponsors splash parties
and all the outdoor activities such
as skating, ice boating, skiing, hiking,
and canoeing. Over 150 persons were
present at the first of the club's tri-
annual parties.
Albert Kramer
To1 Hod Water
Color Exhibit
The water colors of Albert Kramer,
'33, of Cleveland will be shown at a
special exhibition beginning at 3 p.m.
Sunday, March 25, in the shop of
the Student Art Exchange on the
second floor of the League.
Kramer's work met favorable com-
ment from noted art critics while on
display at the Korner and Wood
Galleries of Cleveland during the
first two weeks of March. His sub-
jects, found in Glouchester, Ports-
mouth and Rockport as well as in
Cleveland and Detroit, are treated
with a free technique and show a
true feeling for underlying construc-
tion. Probably the finest painting
included in the exhibit, is "Pine
Grove," in which the trees, freely
separated and entertainingly ar-
ranged, are painted in a pale gold
saturation. His "Black Street, Ports-
mouth," is beautiful in a harsh, gri-
my way, and his "Portsmouth" shows
a blue bay, lying deeply within the
composition, after an interval of
houses and road.
The 39 paintings in the group will
be on display at the shop for sev-
eral days, and Mr. Kramer will at-
tend the opening Sunday. Week-

days, the shop is open from 2 to 5
p.m. and from 7:30 to 9 p.m.
Tau Epsilon Rho To I jold
Tea At Hillel Foundation
Tau Epsilon Rho, law fraternity,
will entertain at an informal tea,

Foundation. No cards have been is-
sued.
Jean Grosberg, '36, Jeannette Ra-
binowitz, Spec. S.M., Dena Sudow,
'34, and Rowena Goldstein, '35, will
be hostesses at the tea.
Junior A.A.U.W. Meets

the Junior A.A.U.W. held their last
meeting .of the season last night in
the League. Mrs. Byrl Fox Bacher
gave a review of chamber music of
various periods. Illustrative records
were played, and a discussion fol-
lowed. The pieces reviewed included
a Beethoven quartet, a Ravel quartet,
and a Bach Concerto for two violins.
COLLEGE ABOLISHES STAG LINE
In order to do away with excessive
