Clothes This Year Still Lean Toward Casual Simplicity Ln ungirtg Robes And Pajamas Are Useful Garb For Studying i It's a point of pride with the col- lege girl to look well on campus and in public generally, but there's noth- ing so soothing to the ego or which adds so much to your own feeling of self-respect as being quite sure that you look nice even in the privacy of your own boudoir. Aside from the question of self- respect, there's comfort to be con- sidered, and no one is comfortable trying to study. in the same dress she wore on campus all day, to say nothing of the wear and tear on the dress occassioned by such a proced- ure. All this points to the necessity for lounging pajamas or negligees in the college scene. Lounging pajamas have been much worn for years, in all kinds, and varieties of colors, materials and styles. This season, however, the negligee is coming back, perhaps as another .phase of the general style trend toward femininity. The negligee appears in just as many different colors and styles as do lounging pajamas. Silk crepes are K oellas Travel In Northern Europe Charles Koella of the French de- partment and, Mrs. Koella arrived in Ann Arbor saturday after a European trip of unusual interest. it included a Scandinavian tour and a meeting with Mme. Edvard Grie, widow of the eminent Norwegian composer., Mr. and Mrs. Koella sailed to Hamburg on a German liner, and went fxrom there to Copenhagen. They spent four weeks with friends in the Danish. capital, where Mrs. Koella had previously studied sing- ing. From Copenhagen they pro- ceeded to Oslo, Norway, passing a month in the ancient Norwegian city, and then travelled through Norway, visiting Mrs. Koella's relatives. It was on a visit to a cousin that the Koellas met Mme. Grieg, now an old lady of 88. They talked with her, took pictures of her, and often saw her walk, still well and spright- ly, through the woods near her home. One momento of the trip is a Nor- wegian national costume which Mrs. Koella brought back with her. She will wear it at the lectures she is to give on Norway this winter. From the Scandinavian peninsula the couple proceeded to Lausanne, Switzerland,. Mr. Koella's former home. After spending some time in research at the University of Laus- anne, Mr. Koella went on to Paris with Mrs. Koella and studied for a while at the University of Paris. perhaps shown the most often but heavier materials, corduroys and vel- vets are also popular. Long flowing sleeves are to be shown most often, but for really practical use and for studying the dolman sleeve fitted tightly at the wrist is less cumber- some. The only absolute necessity about the negligee is that it must be ankle length at least and very often it trails on the ground with a short train. One of the best looking lounginf robes 've have seen was a dark blue corduroy lined with silver crepe and with silver girdle and frogs. Another of coral crepe fastened at the neck with a scarf-like effect and various others were seen which fastened all the way down the front with large round buttons. Sororities Send Members To Conventions, The academic school year is no the extent of the sorority women': activities, for the summer vacatior is the time of many national conven- tions held in all parts of the country, Gamma Phi Beta Marie Murphy, '35. was the dele- gate from the Beta chanter of Gamma Phi Beta sorority to the national sorority convention which was held in June at Colorado Springs, Colo- rado. In addition to the regular con- vention procedure, there were sev.- eral mountain trips, on one of which the group went Up on Pike's Peak to watch the sun rise. The Leland Stanford delegate, Mary Elizabeth Doane, has trans; ferred to Michigan where she will b£ an active member of Beta chapter. Delta Delta Delta The Delta Delta Delta sorority held its national convention this summer at Virginia Beach, Virginia. Cather- ine Shannon and Harriet Spiess were the delegates from this chapter. Delta Gamma The members of the Delta Gamma sorority who attended the national convention which was held in June in Lawsonia, Wisconsin, were Alice Morgan, '35, Betty Aigler, '35, Mary Reif, '34, Carol Hankey, '34, and Margaret Harkrich, '35. Kappa Alpha Theta Nashville, North Carolina, was the scene of the national Kappa Alpha Theta convention in June. Betty Little and Betty Sinclair were the delegates from the Michigan chapter. Kappa Kappa Gamma Isabelle Kanter, '35, was the official delegate of the Michigan chapter of Kappa Kappa Gamma at the national convention held this summer in Yel- lowstone Park. Barbara Rose, 34, and Betty Davis, '34, also attended the convention. That smart casualness, which is. so to be desired this season, is, accen- tuated by the correct accessories.' From hat to shoes the well-dressed girl will express simplicity. She will wear the type of clothes which are equally good for football games or teas. Hats this year are of almost every style. The point only is to wear something that is effective on you. The wide brimmed sailods, worn back to give that wide-eyed effect, or low to remind one of Spain, are still "in." So are the perky little tricorns. Then the soft brimmed sports hat is always acceptable. But if you would wear the newest thing, you should choose the tam-o-shanter type or the alpine hat. They are both expressive of the new trend to- ward informal sport clothes. Big buttons and buckles are points of interest on the new dresses. They may be of wood, leather, china, ivory, rope, metal, or of anything. Their scope is limitless. Schiaparelli is responsible for the diversion in but- tons. She likes to take ordinary things and do things to them, a safety pin, huge nail, harness buckle. or studs offa dog collar. Then there are bows, but if, there be bows, they must be big, bold bows, not little dainty bows. Plain dress- es . feature bows. The new plaids demand them, and even blouses have then. They seem to fit in with the artistic aspect of the new tam hats. Scarfs come in with the bows. They may be ascot or just the old fashioned knotted Scotch plaid. One designer shows scarfs worn as sashes 'with sports dresses. Then there are gloves. These too are comfortable and simple. They may be worn slightly larger than usual. The simplicity which starts with the hats rather weakens when it z9 C TEN L C HILL ADIORU AC $$ METROPOLITAN OPERA ASSOCIATION + LAWRENCE TIBBETT is a hero in many divisions of musical art - concert, opera, radio, and the movies. Pronounced natural gifts augmented by definite, serious and continued , intellgent study have combined to. win for him distinction everywhere. His magnifi- cent voice, finely schooled, gives him a tremendous advantage. Behind this is supreme musicianship and culture, and back of it all is the "way" he does things. Possessor of a powerful personality and an equally forceful imagination, Mr. Tibbett, with deep thought and insight into all that he undertakes, is a creator of originals -not a copyist or imitator. His entire study, development, and fame are "American made," and he has thus been completely free from international influences which might otherwise affect his ideals. Here Thursday, Nov. Ist. UN10 reaches the shoes, for shoe design- ers have tried to make shoes more ornate. They have only succeeded in obtaining tiny buckles and stitch- ings. Solid leather heels are popu- lar too, but the general trend insists on the smart sport shoe which is best with the new sport clothes. Shop with easeI rat,. .

Endowed with superlative musical gifts, as a girl she amazed all who knew her and thrilled many audiences. A short period of intensive and intelligent study climaxed her artistic endowments, and almost "over night" she found herself triumphing in major roles at the world's most august opera house, the Metropolitan. Season after season her popularity in both opera and recital has radiantly developed, and everywhere she is a favorite. Now, after a dozen years, she has reached the poise and maturity of a world performer, and is still in the radiant bloom of youth with a brilliant and attractive art and personality which glow with freshness and beauty. Her Festival and concert successes in Hill Auditorium have been so pronounced that she has been brought back many times in response to insistent demands of enthusiastic concert patrons.
