Serif's BY Ruth -ussey, Grad., who plays the lead in' "Little Love," which opened last night at the Lydia Mendelssohbn Theatre, was a member of the Provi- dence Players while she was attending Pembroke College at Brown, Provi- dence, R. I. Enjoy Initial t .secst Of 'Little Love' An audience of 300 enthusiastic persons received the campus premiere of Comedy Club's "Little Love," the Hopwood prize play, by Vincent Wall, Grad.,, last night at Lydia Mendels- sohn Theatre with the greatest ap- proval. Members of the cast took~ three curtain calls, with players and audience calling for the author at the last bow, Seen in the lobby between acts were a number of campus and fac- ulty notables. Miss Ethel McCor- mick, social director of the League, was charming in a peach chiffon semi-formal cut with swirls of the materials about the ankles. Mrs. Frank Oakes chose black chiffon with , black lace yoke and black appliques -n the bodice. Mrs. Allison Ind, dark ind small, wore dark blue crepe cut ong with flaring sleeves, while Mrs. Donal Hamilton Haines chose a print frock of red print. Mrs. Theoodre Hornberger wore a brown and orange print on a white background with brown accessories and one of the new brimmed hats. Mrs. Charles Koella appeared in a print, the motif one of piny flowers on a deep lavender back- ;round. Students noted during the "be- ,ween-acts" were Harriet Oleksuich In a stunning gray ensemble; gray crepe dress with a gray lace yoke ex- tending to form the cap sleeves. Ac- zessories were hat, gloves, and pumps of the same shade of dove-gray. League commit tees Tf Be Picked Soon Committee positions in the League must be determined by a week from today, according to an announcement made by Maxine Maynard, '35, pres- ident of the League. All women who intend to try-out for a committee must apply before that time, so that the committee chairmen may choose their workers, she said. The committees which are open are house, reception, publicity,-art, point system, undergraduate fund, freshman project, and social. Appli- cants in making their petitions should state their particular capabilities, and their previous activities. By JOSEPHINE McLEAN "It is more difficult to get a dance recital together than to stage a play," Valentine B. Windt director of Play Production concluded after working with Miss Emily White instructor of rhythms classes, on the Gondoliers. Whereas the play is chosen, the dance must be created, and before a dance can be created music with inspiration and adaptibility to rhythms must be found. Speech as well as gesture aids the actor while the dancer must rely on movement alone for expression. "Before a student should make a public appearance he should have at least a year's training in modern dance technic," according to Miss White. Besides he must have a feel- ing for design and complete muscular control. The dance recital like the play ne- cessitates programs, costume and lighting. However, the play includes a technical staff and actors while the dancers themselves, in the recital-to be given Tuesday, May 8 in the Lydia Mendelssohn Theatre, are in charge of the technical end of the perform- ance. Collin Wilsey, '35, and Julia Wilson, '36, maintain an active interest in the recital. Not only have they created dances and are taking part in them, but they have also arranged a sched- ule for rehearsals and are working on the program committee. Oren Parker, art director of Play Production, besides participating in the recital is responsible for the lighting effects. Josephine Ball, '36, is assisting with lighting and programs. Thedance recital requiresa tre- mendous amount of work and it is only by the co-operation of the 72 White Coatis, Belted And Swagger Style AppearO)n Campus Everyday we see something new in the fashion line, or if not something really new at least a little number that has been newly resurrected. To- day's surprise is the white coat which has suddenly appeared in all its glory, We have seen it in linen and in light weight wools, in all styles, from the swagger to the belted polo. White pique coats are much in evidence, made with full sleeves, large buttons, and huge lapels. Such coats are being worn over all kinds of dresses and they look quite as good with pastel frocks as with the all-white suits which we have a sneaking suspicion that many of them originally belonged to. Several such costumes have been prominent on campus, one of the most striking being a very bright blue dress which was combined with one of these white coats, and another outfit was of aqua crepe, with a matching hat trimmed in white and of course the white coat. Gray and white is good too from all we see on campus these days. One of the most Priscillaish frocks was gray crepe with a large, white collar made with lapels and big white but- tons. The belt was wide and finished with a very large and ornate white buckle. DELTA KAPPAS AT MAY DAY University investigation into the Communist May Day excursion to Detroit today took on the aspect of a musical comedy farce when it was definitely admitted by members of Delta Kappa Epsilon that three of their members participated in the trip. persons involved that such a thing could be attempted. Inexperienced dancers and other handicaps have only served to spur the performers on, for the propose to increase interestt in the odern dance at all costs. Student Studl$ Abroad Uder Konmisar Ksky Gladys Diehl, '33, ranked as the leading character actress on the cam- pus by directors last year, is reported to have studied with Victor Kommi-4 sarjosky, prominent producer, duringz her six weeks vacation from Oxford, University where she has been study-t ing this year.- Miss Diehl will be rememberedt for her work in "Hedda Gabler," "Hayt Fever," "Romantic Young Lady," and "Uncle Tom's Cabin." She was a mem- ber of Comedy Club, the Michigan Repertory Players, and a student in Play Production. Mr. Kommisarjosky is one of the foremost producers, writers andc teachers in the theatre today. He was expelled from Russia where he had been director and designer in many leading imperial and Soviet theatres, because of royal blood. Having been forced to direct abroad when the banst were lifted he decided to remain where1 he was and so has been teaching int England for many years. Of the bookst that he has written on the theatre, the most popular are, "Myself and the ' Theatre," and "The Costume of the Theatre."

IN SMART FOOTWEAR CIR .e Dr. ii._Hockt( Few people other than members ofL Stalker Hall know what that organi-c zation is, not to mention the partt that it plays in the lives of the stu-t dents who participate in the activitiesr held there. One important enterprises of this organization for Methodist stu-t dents is the Henry Martin Loud en- dowment fund which was donated forc bringing religious lecturers to Ann Ar-t bor. Until this year, a series of dif-t ferent lecturers were heard weekly fort ten weeks, but the new plan being adopted this year proves to be even more interesting and valuable. Beginning Monday, May 7 through May 10, Dr. William Hocking of Har- vard University is to give a series of afternoon and evening talks on va- rious phases of religion. In order to accommodate a large 'number of lis- teners, the lectures will be given in the League Ballroom instead of in the, hall where all activities of the organization are usually held. Organized In 1912 The present hall, built originally by the Presbyterian church, was pur- chased by the Methodists about 1912 for the purpose of becoming a part of thenational Wesley foundation, under the name of Wesley Hal, but it was renamed this year in remem- brance of Dr. Stalker, former pastor of the Methodist church. Representatives from the Methodist church at large, from the student body, and some faculty members met to organize. Members of the board, chosen from church representatives, were responsible for appointing an individual to take care of student ac- Foreign Education Draws Americans From the Press Relations Bureau in New York City comes the report that American students are being attracted to education in foreign countries, in increasing numbers, par- ticularly in England. Statistics show that the registration of these stu- dents has more than tripled since the inauguration of special courses for them, and it is suggested that this may be partially due, at least in the case of women, to the fact that the Prince of Wales bears the title, President of the College Council. In- creased internationalism also figures as an explanation in the growth of American enrollment, American men and women register in courses as divergent as music and horticulture, and from government research to missionary work. Besides the winter session of three ten-week terms which are offered, many take advantage of the summer course, held during the first three and a half weeks in August, which will be re- peated this year at Exeter. After a year or more at Exeter these students may continue their studies at the Uni- versities of Oxford and Cambridge, and are thus exempted from the year of residence required by the Univer- sities. ~CLES tivities. Their first choice was Dr. Ellen Moore, for years on the faculty of the Oriental language department. Have Capable Directors Dr. Timmerman and Dr. Bingham now pastors in Columbus, O., and Port Huron respectively, took up the work after Dr. Moore, and a professor of religion at Albion college, Dr. Sam- uel Harrison, succeeded them. A grad- uate student, Gordon Halstead, is now acting in the capacity of director of student affairs following a two-year term by Dr. Blakeman. The selection of a student in charge is an incentive to the students to take part in all activities afforded them by the organization, and espe- cially to make use of their Hall, which For Qick clearance We Ofler These A fishing contest for the et season has just been announce James Wood of the Sculpture dermy Studios.
