Architeets' Ball
Is Pleaned For
Friday, May I
Decorations At Party Will
Give Arabian Nights Air;
Don Lyon Is Chairman
The brilliance of the Architects
Party, to be held May 11 in Granger's
Ballroom, will have to depend more
on the decorations than on the cos-
tumes of the guests, according to an
announcement made yesterday by
Don Lyon, '34A, general chairman.
Although the party is being an-
nounced all over the campus as the
Architects Costume Party, the un-
willingness of the students on the
campus to deck themselves out in
fancy costumes has caused the com-
mittee to make the wearing of cos-
tumes optional, Lyon said.
For many years before 1926 there
was considerable agitation on the
campus for a costume party. The
chief argument of the exponents of
the idea was that it would be the only
party of its kind in the middle-west
and as such it would attract a lot
of comment in this area. Aftera long
and sustained fight the costume-ad-
vocates won their point and for the
next year or .two the campus saw a
party that rivalled the J-Hop in color
and brilliance.
In those years the party attained
a prestige worthy' of the Parisian
Beaux Arts. The entire College of Ar-
chitecture worked for weeks before
the party designing and building the
setting and preparing the gymnasium
for the dance, and the night of the
party the floor was crowded with
guests wearing costumes in keeping
with the decorations.
This year, the setting of the party
is the cave of Sesame in the mythical
land of the Arabian Nights. Work has
already been started on making up
the decorations and will proceed more
rapidly when all of the working draw-
ings are completed, Lyon said.
The contest for the best poster de-
sign to advertise the party was won by
Bruce Lafer, '35A. Second and third
awards were made to Charles Stock-
ing, '36A, and Margaret Culver, '35A.
Ten others received honorable men-
tion.
The tickets have all been placed in
the hands of committeemen and more
have been ordered, according to Lyon.
The price of the tickets is $2.
U* *s* Junior Class
Will Produce P'lay
University High School's Junior
Class will present "The Far-Off Hills"
by Lennox Robinson on May 4 and
5 at 8:15 in the University High au-
ditorium. Mr. Robinson has spoken
several times to Ann Arbor audiences.
"The Far-Off Hills" is the play that
was presented by the Abbey Theatre
players of Dublin in the Lydia Men-
delssohn Theatre two years ago. The
plot concerns a young girl of twenty-
five or so who has planned a career
as a nun and the circumstances that
arise to make her change her mind.
She decides to look around for an
eligible gentleman and complications
arise.
Tickets are on sale for both per-.
formances at Wahr's and Slaters' and
the high school.
Synthetic Diamnonds Are
Predicted By Scientists
(By Intercolegiate Press)
MADRID, Spain, May 1. -Dia-
monds may be made synthetically in
large quantities for commercial use

in the near future, in the opinion
of Prof. Obdulio Fernandez, chief of
the pharmacy faculty at the Univer-
sity of Madrid.
He told the opening session of the
ninth International Congress of Pure
Applied Chemistry last week that the
modern day chemist gradually is ar-.
riving at knowledge of the transmu-
tation of substances.
Eleven United States delegates were 1

COME ARUNNIN

Linen, Checked Materials Are
Best For Spring Campus Wear

Fashion news is coming fast and
furious and innovations are appear-
ing every day, with last spring's fash-
ion favorites staging unexpected
comebacks. The latest summer fash-
ion to put in its appearance "under
the clock" is the linen suit, which
seems none the worse for its recent
hibernation.
One of the most charming of such
suits to be seen was worn by one of
our more prominent campus women.
It was green linen, not chartreuse or a
pastel shade but a real virile grass
green and was made with a short
double breasted tailored jacket worn
over a severe brown linen blouse.
With it there was a broad brimmed
white hat with a narrow brown edge
and broad bown ribbon and brown
and white shoes completed the cos-
tume.
Another of these suits was sighted
in dark blue linen, It too featured the
short jacket, though not of the dou-
ble breasted variety and it was com-
bined with a white pique blouse.
Little white pique cuffs made it look
still more clever, cool, and some-
how efficient.
So far we haven't seen any white
linen suits, but we're sure that with
the grace of God and the weather
man they will soon be forthcoming.
Besides these there are other suits,
not quite so summery in appearance.
One of the most tailored which we
saw today was a dark brown skirt
combined with a double-breasted
jacket of tiny brown checks. The
wearer of this outfit also indulged in
a floppy brim.
And may. we mention the char-
Campfire Girls, Sorority
Plans Social Meetings
Members of Alpha Gamma Sigma,
sorority for .former campfire girls,
continued their contract bridge les-
sons, which have been carried on for
seven weeks, at their meeting last
night. Miss Tress Musiel is teaching
the women.
Plans were made at the meeting for
several social affairs of the near fu-
ture. A breakfast at 9:30 a.m. Sun-
day in the League will honor the grad-
uating members of the sorority, Vir-
ginia Bell and Karolina Weiser. Miss
Ethel McCormick, social director of
the League, will speak .at the break-
fast.
The sorority will honor mothers of
the members at a Mother's fDay tea
to be held in the League., Further

'16 LAW CLASS TO MEET j

sociation.

treuse suit made in a sheer wool. The
top of the 'one-piece dress was a
silk print with a decidedly yellowish
tinge and sleeves of this material ap-

Other outfits were seen on campus.
which did not cling to the strictly
tailored type. One of the most at-
tractive was aquamarine crepe with
a brown taffeta collar, cuffs, and'
jabot effect. It also featured a brown
patent belt which did not buckle but
tied with little bows of the crepe.
Another of the dressier costumes
was a blue taffeta suit with large
white dots painted on it. All we could
see of it in a passing glance was that
it had perfectly huge short puffed
sleeves, which hid the rest of the
dress.
