Dimities Used For
Summer Formals

The first astonishing thing an
American would notice about Margery
Pickard, star of "Laburnum Grove,'
the play which opened the Dramatic
Season last night in the Lydia Men-
delssohn Theater is the brand of cig-
arettes she smokes. It seemed a bit
startling to see the dainty Miss Pick-
ard haul out a cardboard box of Eng-
lish cigarettes, adorned by a picture
of a burly sailor, which are called
"Navy Plugs." In spite of her mascu-
line-looking cigarettes, she is really
a very feminine brunette ingenue,
whose ambition is to play Juliet.
This is Miss Pickard's first stage
role in America, and she confessed
that she liked it here very much, al-
though she found New York too noisy
and dusty. "What I like about Amer-
ica," she said, "is that everyone lives
so comfortably. Every hotel room
here has a private bath, but in Eng-
land, you're lucky if you have a bath
for a whole corridor."
Miss Pickard is an actress by design,
not by accident. All her life she in-I
tended to become an actress, and after
she finished school at a Belgium con-
vent, she attended the Royal Academy
of Theatrical Art at London for a
year. Although her mother objected
to her going on the stage, she had no
difficulty in finding parts with a tour-
ing stock company, and soon got a
role in "Laburnum Grove," which
ran almost a year in London.
During the London run, she was

he said, "because it is impossible to
eel that you are acting when you
'ave no audience, and what is even
gorse, you cannot give a sustained
erformance because the scenes are
hot out of order, and are done piece-
neal. Besides I was prejudiced be-
,ause I didn't like the directcr."
A month ago she appeared with
3ary Cooper on the Lux radio pro-
,ram in a short skit. Though she
'iked Cooper immensely, she didn't
=njoy the broadcast, "because," she
Gnfessed, "standing before the mic-
:ophone was one of the most terrify-
ng experiences I have ever had."
Miss Pickard came over from Eng-
"and with her sister and brother-in-
law, Lord and Lady Cecil Hardwick.
He is the only member of her family
who is interested in the theater, and
he has just returned from Holly-
wood, where he played opposite Mi-
riam Hopkins in the first all-color
picture, "Becky Sharpe."

TO HOLD INITIATION

Cane Day dinner for Seniors were
held at several fraternities yesterday.
Zeta Psi
Zeta Psi fraternity entertained with
special dinners Saturday and Sunday
for the mothers who spent the week-
end at the chapter house. These
are Mrs. Stone, Mrs. Hoff, and Mrs.
Gordon of Milwaukee; Mrs. Swegles,
Mrs. Dewey, and Mrs. Livingston of
Detroit; Mrs. Grove and Mrs. Alden
of Chicago; and Mrs. Smith, Mrs. Up-
son, Mrs. Scott, and Mrs. Bunting
of Ann Arbor. Richard Swegles,-'37E,
was in charge.

dinner Sunday in honor of the sen-
iors in the house. James Eberly, '35,
social chairman, was in charge.
Delta Tau Delta

and informals are the extremely full house party last
skirt and the appearance of some kind chapter house. A

week-end at the
dinner was given

of sleeve. Most evening gowns in-
clude these new style points, but in-
genious treatment of them gives a
wide selection.j
Pink Is Popular
The petite woman will want a gown
of extreme fragility. For her there
is a demure dotted Swiss made along
little-girl lines that is entrancing.
The material is a delicate shade of
pink, dotted in black. Shirtmaker
in style, the dress features a long
slim skirt with fullness inserted at
the bottom by means of long gores.
The same type of ruffling is carried
cut in trimming on slightly puffed,
elbow-length sleeves and on the round
collar. An old-fashioned black vel-
vet belt and tiny block velvet bows
at the neck and on the cuffs and the
pockets complete this very feminine
style.
Flower Design Used
Pago-Pago and surrounding points
show their influence on fashion with
the appearance of a flowered print
creation called "Pagan Lady." This
is a bright blue linen with a large,
exotic looking flower design. The
low neck follows a draped, off-the-
shoulder collar.
While linens, dimities, ginghams
and the other washable materials
characterize very strongly the prev-
alent note of informality, chiffon pre-
sents a more formal appearance and3
retains its year-round popularity. OneJ
very beautiful model effectively uses
the startling color combination of
violet and fuschia.
Ginghams Have Arrived
Very unusual is the handwoven
gingham which just arrived in Ann
Arbor. The dress is grey-orchid color,
trimmed in the skirt with bands of
turquoise, flame, powder blue, and
gold. All the colors used in this orig-
inal model are of dull, softened tones
so that they blend effectively.
CHORUS WILL PRACTICE
The Women's Club Chorus will hold
a special practice at 1:15 p.m. today,
in the League in preparation for the
program to be given Thursday for
the Washtenaw Federation of Wom-
en's Clubs at Ypsilanti.
