The dances created by Miss Humph- rey and Mr. Weidman have been placed in the better theatre revues with no compromise to their art. Form, line, and rhythm are emphasized in their dances, rather than narration of steps. These artists arranged the dance numbers in the theatrical productions "As Thousands Cheer," "School for Husbands," and "Americana." Mr. Weidman choreographed the play within a play in Norman Bel Geddes production of "Hamlet" and arranged dances for Joe Cook in "Hold Your Horses" and in "Flying Colors." Miss Humphrey, in addition to hers joint work with Mr. Weidman, ar- ranged the dances for "Run Lil Chil- lun" and the Spanish dancing in "Revenge for Music." Miss Humphrey and Mr. Weidman performed last spring in the Dra- matic Festival. They confined their program to dances and appeared with- out their ensemble which consists of 15 young men and women. These artists gave a recital before the Theatre Guild in New York. They taught last summer at the Benning- ton College where a six week's course in modern dance was given by the: leading artists in this field. They are conducting classes in mod- ern dance in New York. They de- veloped their style following an ex- tensive tour of the Orient with the Denishawns. Survey Shows Men Students Are More Nosy Than Women POUGHKEEPSIE, N, Y. Jan. 25. - (Special) - Men students ,are noisier than women students, but they do not let noise irritate them nearly so much, according to Dr. Donald A. Laird, director of the psychological laboratory at Colgate University. Dr. Laird announced here at Vassar Col- lege the results of his survey of cam- pus and dormitory noises. The volume of noise in women's col- leges is less than in men's colleges, records on a measuring audiometer showed. However in spite of the softer volume, the higher pitched voices of the women make the noise problem a more acute one. The irritation of the woman student at noise Dr. Laird at- tributed to "the better discrimination and use women make of their senses." The survey also gave a comparison of noises on campuses in the country or small towns, and campuses- in the city. The results revealed that a little noise is far more noticeable in the former college than more noise in the latter. Mt. Holyoke and Vassar have low noise levels of 1 decibels, and an ordinary conversation of 35 decibels is clearly heard above this level. In! city colleges, on the other hand, there is a constant noise level of 30, to 50 decibels. SNIX & NAX .rmals, inanimate ones, can be made to play a very important part in the arrangement of a room and in contributing a certain personal touch to the whole. As guardians of the bed t:lack scotties made up in wool to re- :crible the originals are most appro- priate. Ribbons of the correct shade may be tied about their necks, in accordance with the color scheme of the room. They are often made to nestle among a number of fancy pil- lows artistically arranged at the head1 of the bed or else they may lie at the foot. Kittens in reclining positions, par- ticularly white ones, look sweet and appealing on a bed if the watchdog motif is not desired. These, too, are E'et off effectively if placed in a nest of pillows or curled up just beneath the bolster. Of course there are all sorts of animals besides these which may be made to produce the same ef- feet. Some prefer teddy-bears of vari- ous sizes, some giraffes, or even mon- keys. Luxurious Dolls Used For the room which is essentially old-fashioned in design dolls dressed in luxuriant satin gowns add an air of charm to the bed. They should be piopped up by cushions artistically arranged at their backs. The color of the dress may blend into the bed cp;ead or else be in attractive con- trast to it. This sort of ornament suits the bed with a canopy admirably, or the four poster mahogany bed. Now in regard to touches of orig- inality for the dresser or bookcase, little china dogs or kittens are pop- ular. For instance, several dogs of the same breed may be placed together in a group at the top of a book-case.j An attractive combination is provided by obtaining animals which grade down gradually in size - a reasonably large one, one a bit smaller, and so on. Some people devote the entirety of a small book case to their chain dog collections. In this case one shelf may contain scotties, the next setters, and the bottom one two groups of smaller numbers on either side of the shelf. China Dogs Popular On the d(xesser 'a group of very small dogs is the preferable arrange- ment. If, however, the top is crowded witn various toilet articles, it is better to have just one medium sized dog guarding it. A graceful hound, setter, or scottie always looks well anywhere. On the desk a severe looking watch dog may be placed on guard. The important thing to remember is to place the animals where they will be set off to the best advantage without cluttering up the room or detracting from some other more important ar- ticles. Too many dogs could easily ruin the desired effect or spoil the' arrangement of the room. A very iew may contribute much to its charm. In Ann Arbor Well Filled House Hears Opera Star In Sixth Of Choral Union Series Mme. Lotte Lehmann, interna- tionally famous soprano, made her, debut in Ann Arbor last night before a crowd of enthusiastic music lovers in Hill Auditorium. Erno Balogh ac- companied her songs at the piano. In spite of the examination season, Hill Auditorium was well filled. Her program for the most part was highlyj classical. The audience called Mme. Lehmann back for six encores. The encore receiving the greatest recep- ion was the famous "Cradle Song"' 'y Brahms. The well-known soprano also sang as an encore, "Widmung" and "Unge- deld" by Schumann. Other encores were: "What Are You Doing" by Schubert, "Der Schmied" by Brahms, and "Vergebliches Standchen," also by Brahms. Mme. Lehmann sang two encores after each group of songs. The famous opera star has concert-! ized in nearly all the countries of the world. She sings regularly in Vienna, her home, Paris, Brussels, London, Berlin, Salzburg, Munich, Montea Carlo, and other European music centers. This is her fifth season in the United States, making her debut in the 1930-31 season as a member of the Chicago Opera Company. Swed- en, Austria, and France have bestowed honors upon her. She was the first Austrian woman to sing after the war in France, where she was awarded the rosette of the Legion of Honor. Mme. Lotte Lehmann opened her program with "Suleika" by Mendel- ssohn. She continued with "Die Liebende Schreibt," "Venetianisches Gondellied," and "Der Mond," all by Mendelssohn. After a short intermission the opera star was heard in a group of four songs. The first beirng "Over the Steppe" and "Cradle Song" by Gret- chaninoff. Then she sang "In the! Silence of the Night" by Rachman- inoff. She concluded this group of songs with "My Native Land" by Gretchaninoff. Schumann was the composer of her next group of five offerings. "Der Nussbaum" was the first of these se- lections. Following were "An den Son*enschein" and "Ich Grolle Nicht." "Auftrage" was the last num-1 ber in this group.j These were followed in turn by three renditions, which concluded the concert. "Fa la Nina, Bambin' " by Sadero, "Do Not Chide Me" by Balogh, and "Joy" by Cadman completed the ro n ram Winter Wardrobes This is the time of year which is exceedingly trying for the feminine contingent, what with the strain of approaching exams as well as that of trying to appear well dressed des- pite zero weather and a slightly worn winter wardrobe. An excellent thought both for the pre-exam spirits and the conserva- tive pocketbook, is to "spring-up" the winter wool, knit, or silk frock with a "different" collar. And spring neck- wear this year is decidedly new. It comes in unusual materials and al- most every conceivable style. There is an attractive and washable linger- ie silk collar, Peter Pan style with crystal buttons. Then there is a barred lawn material which is es- pecially good to touch up the old navy silk standby. A surprising material is that two- way-stretch organdie which gives a pebbly impression and definitely "in season" effect. The two-way-stretch crepes and gorgettes have also been seen. For the more frivolous, a ruf- fled lace collar trimmed with tiny pearl buttons is very satisfying. The tailored epaulet waffle silk collar is perfect for school year. Pique is always popular as is the attractive eyelit embroidered.collar. All of these materials launder beautifully. If one is entering the spirit of the season, it should by all means by com- pletely out. One of the most im- portant, perhaps because the most noticeable accessory in the wardrobe is gloves. A lady will want gloves and "the" kind. Again white is the an- swer. White leather gloves will be very smart with a tailored checked suit coat and black wool skirt. White pigskin is good. Dark suede gloves with silk faille are shown. Chamois gloves, not only complete almost any sports outfit in a stunning manner, but are also sufficiently warm and serviceable.
