All foreign Smart For Evening 'Str eet Scene' Pr oves Unusual Michigan Dame Campus Celebrities To Sing In Opportunities For Women Groups Begin! On Radio Variety Pro grani As a general rule, there are always more women with dramatic interests and abilities than men but usually the number of parts for women is in reverse proportion. However, in El- mer Rice's "Street Scene" the women have just as much of the glory and have nearly as many parts in the play as the men. There will be about 25 women in ' the cast when the play opens next Friday night. Of these 25, every type of woman who might be living in a tenement, from the gossipy Irish laundress to the conscientious school teacher is portrayed. There is the Swedish overworked janitress whose husband bullies her, the fat and comfortable German wife of an er- rant Italian musician. It is a true "slice of life" which the women in Play Production will help to depict. Women To Help! But not only Is there work to be done in the actual acting, but cos- tumes, sets and properties all are to be aided by women in the department. A huge set is needed for "Street Scene" and hammer and nails, paint, even saws will be found in the hands of women working on the two and aI half story setting. Posters and programs for the play have been designed by a woman in -As~ociated Press Photo the Architectural School, Harriet Cook. She has made linoleum blocks This new black evening wrap, its which will be used in the printing of wide ermine sleeves falling from a Ihnrarams and posters of the play. Sarah Pierce, '35, has perhaps the. queerest assignment of all the com- mittees. It is her task to find stretch- ers, baby carriages, doctors' satchels and garbage cans, all needed as propsj for "Street Scene." Less romantic, but nevertheless as important is the job of Alice Morgan, '35, who is in charge of the box office. Jane Fletcher, '36, is constructing the1 program and Reta Peterson, '36, and Jean Currie, Grad, will be in charge of the ushers. In less than two and a half weeks from the beginning of rehearsals, "Street Scene" Will be presented in Lydia Mendelssohn Theatre and it is greatly to the credit of the women in the course who are working so diligently on none tooaeasy tasks thatj the play will be as finished as is promised, Ann Arbor Girl To Marry At y .1 LeagueChapel Miss Florence Richardson will be- come the bride of Mr. Edwin Zahn at 3:30 p.m. today in the Chapel of the League.

The radio or the portable "vic" can provide the sweet music, but the effect of the soft lights is aided by means of lamps. For the definitejy feminine room, the style of lamps follows a distinctI pattern. They are, almost without exception, of white or pastel colors, that softly blend with frilly curtains' and bedspreads. Alabaster has re- gained its popularity and is very at- tractive as a lamp base in pink, green, yellow, or white, or in a combined mixture of several of these shades. Table and dressed lamps are fea- tured in innumerable novelty styles. The "mystic" lamp, for example, has a mirror base which the shaft is made in spherical form, connoting a medium's crystal. Another lamp of similar type is called the "constella- tion" lamp. Designed to represent the planet Saturn, -the globe of the light is divided by a pseudo-axis. If one prefers lamps in pairs the new modernistic torchieres are smart for the dressing table. The globe of ground glass is tube-shaped while the base is made of a series of circles in Assemble Costumes The cast will contain about 60 per- sons which presents those in charge with the difficulty of collecting all of the modern costumes by next Friday. For such a large cast in itself it is difficult to assemble costumes, but when there are demands for police uniforms, internes outfits, clothes for the old clothes man, the task becomes a particularly arduous one. Virginia Frink, '35, is working on that part alternating silver and black. Mod- ernistic lines are also carried out in bases of imported pottery and enamel. The "candle-stick" lamp, although not particularly, is a wise choice for a bare end-table. They come in both china and bronze. The latter, in bronze gives the lamp an appearance of the old-fashioned oil-lamps, and a practical feature is that the base can be used as an ash-tray. Thumb-nail glass in both amber and crystal is rapidly replacing the popularity of hob-nail. In crystal, it comes with a very novel shade. The latter is called "claire de lune" and is made of a composition celluloid that is not inflammable. It is trim- med with crystal beads and looks like ground glass when lighted. Porcelain still remains the, most distinctive material for the lamp- shade. One genuine porcelain shade has Greek music written on it. It is imported from Italy, and was in its original form, the page of a book of Greek hymns. Transparent glass and cellophane are battling for second place in the lamp-shade popularity contest. i L ET the Elizabeth Dilloni Shop in- troduce your perfect classmate: it's a two-piece diagonal angora in a truly Erin shade of Hinter's green with bouncy round wooden buttons. What's more, it's interest- ingly tailored and priced. There's also quite a selection of wools and those increasingly popular velvet- een jackets with tweed skirts and ascots. The wools are all kinds, colors and descriptions . . . and just a little bit unusual . . . stripes, plaids, checks or plain and they range from $5.95 to $12.50. TALK about "singing in the shower" . . . you'll croon-your very best in a "bath by Lentheric." They have a complete line of acces- sories which includes a "Tuile pour le bain" (bath oil, to you) that softens and perfumes the water. Yardley has a new wrinkle called Lavendomeal which is also a per- fumed softener. There's an attrac- tive gift package of bath-saltsby Dorothy Grey and for the very, very smartthere's always Chanel's Talc . . . and they're all waiting for you at Calkins-Fletcher's. * * * BANG goes the thermometer and so does everyone else ... to the University Fashion Shop for some balbriggan p.j.'s... they're all two- piece wtih long sleeves and very tricky crew necks .. . quite nautical but very nice! And while we're dis- cussing "miladies aids," you should see the outlay of purses (indis- pensable even when empty) and initialed handkerchiefs and the Corticello hose, very very sheer for only $1.25. Lucy Ann Brazil, mo- deste specializing in alterations and remodelling, is now located at the U. Fashion Shop . . just don't forget! * * * HATS have certainly attained a new peak this season both in actual height and in names . . . have you tried the Robin Hood or the -Tricorn? Or perhaps you'd look well in a Desperado? At the Robert's Hat Shop we found the very newest in head-gear . . . it's called the Cossack. It is entirely different with that smart "away from the face" line that is highly approved just now by the connois- seurs of such. Another scoop from those who know is that hats are going gay as to color . . red, blue and green. THEY'RE back again! We really should call up a Pep meeting or some such celebration to wel- come the return of the caramel apples . . big red juicy apples dipped in the most luscious cara- mel icing. Why not revert to your childhood days of circuses and fairs, forget your sophomoric dig- nity and "buy an apple -5c." Of course, they're at the Carmel Crisp Shop along with the biggest pop- corn in town, that creamy fudge and "reducoid" potato-chips.
