Among the most unique settings were the Alpha Xi Delta circus and the nau- tical layout at Kappa Delta. Alpha Delta Pi Green and White formed the color scheme for the rushing dinner held last night by Alpha Delta Pi sorority. Green bowls filled with white dahlias formed centerpieces for the tables, while green candles completed the decorations.

The color scheme was carried out in lavendar and ivory, with ivory tapers and bowls of laven- dar asters on the tables. Alpha Xi Delta A circus dinner with place cards in the form of clowns, was given at a rushing party by the Alpha Xi Delta sorority recently. Pink lemonade and ice cream cones were served to carry out the circus effect. Last evening the members of the sorority planned a Chinese dinner for their rushing guests. Decorations con- sisted of chinese lanterns, black candles and candlesticks. At a prev- ious dinner, the pln was a Spanish setting. Tables were covered with a' red and white checked cloth, and Spanish place cards used. Collegiate Sorosis An attractive setting for a rushing dinner was the one chosen by Col- legiate 'Sorosis Tuesday evening. The dining room was softly lighted by tall orange tapers at each table. Matching the tapers were orange and black dahlias which gracefully filled an ivory bowl in the center of the head table, and were reflected around the table by a large mirror placed beneath the flowers. Kappa Delta A unique rushing party was held at the Kappa Delta sorority last eve-+ ning in honor of the yachting races.I k,,natical'setting consisting of ban- ners from the Detroit Yacht club, ship models, and nautical decorations were planned by Elizabeth Moor,36.

WOMEN'S SPORTS SWIMMING CLUB FORMS Although the official opening of the swimming season is still in the future, like all sports, a training period and practice are necessary to stay in top form. Miss Irene Field, faculty supervisor and swimming coach, yesterday urged that all the women interested in swimming or in trying out for mem- bership in the Swimming Club should make use of the recreation hours for women at the Union Pool. The sched- ule for this year remains as it was last - Tuesday and Thursday eve- nings from 8:30 to 9:30, and Saturday mornings from 8:30 to 10:30. Mary Stirling, W.A.A. manager for swimming, will be in charge of the tryouts for membership, and any information concerning the tests may be obtained from her. The swimming season is a little broader in scope than those of other sports, as a rule. Not only is there an Intramural and Interclass and All- Campus meet, but an Intercollegiate telegraphic meet in which contestants compete with swimmers from the other Big Ten and middlewestern schools. HOCKEY SEASON BEGINS Hockey will be one of the most dif- ficult and skill-demanding sports on the women's athletic schedule this year. A season of four weeks for prac- tice with two intensive drill periods a week will get under way today, and will be followed by four more weeks of Interclass and tournament com- petition, according to an announce- ment from the Athletic Department yesterday. The climax of the season is the In- terclass tourney, for which the hours of practice are pointed. After three days spent in organization and prac- tice of the Interclass teams, a round robin tournament will open on Oc- tober 18. The Ann Arbor Hockey Club will be the first of the non-university compe- tition in which the teams will par- ticipate. They tangle with the local1 aggregation in about two weeks. Coaching will be under the expert direction of Miss Hilda Burr, whot came from England three years ago to coach hockey, and Miss Laurie Campbell, director of athletics. Miss Irene Field will assist them. Lavinia Creighton, one of the stars of the game through the years she has been on the campus, is manager. A heart and lung recheck is neces- sary before any girl enters the sport, if she has not already had a medical examination this fall. Autumn Mode Features Quaint Picture Dresses Among the new formal styles that will be seen this fall are the picture dresses. These dresses originated in the picture dresses of the late nine- teenth century, with the full skirt, tight bodice, droop shoulder, of this style. One gown of this type was of black moire. The full skirt, shirred on at the waist, gave the dress a' sweeping line. The neckline of this model was extremely wide and low and thefleeves were puffed. The whole effect was of turning back the calendar a few decades. Vacation Sees Marriages 0 f Many Alumni Among weddings of interest to University students and alumni is that of Jean Kramer, '33, to Dr. Cliff- ord Kenne, '34Med. The ceremony took place last March. Mrs. Kenne is affiliated with Zeta Tau Alpha, and Dr. Kenne with Alpha Kappa Kappa. The couple will reside in Ann Arbor while Dr. Kenne com- pletes his interneship in the Univer- sity Hospital.

CH0L" UNION C E RTS HTILL AUDITORIUM TEN ALL-STAR CONCERTS LAWRENCE TIBBETT 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 intelligent 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.
