FRIDAY, OCTOBER 25, 135
Expect SetlO-ut
For Toiiight's
Union Formal
Sally Sage To Accompany
Danny Russo's Orioles
For Student Dance
The sixth annual Union Formal
will be held tonight in the Union
ballroom and Danny Russo and his
crchestra will play for the capacity
crowd. John C. McCarthy, record-
ing secretary in charge of the tick-
ets, last night stated that a complete
sell-out was expected.
Union officials stated that a pic-
ture of the formal will be taken im-
mediately following the grand march,
or after another event which may be
sponsored instead of the march.
With Russo will appear Sally Sage,
well known stage and night club
entertainer. In the past few year
since his band was reorganized in
1930, Russo has become one of the
popular favorites in the Middle West
and in the region around Chicago.
For a brief time he played at the
Edgewater Beach Hotel and the Col-
lege Inn of the Hotel Sherman.
Decorations for the ballroom were
under the direction of George A. Ma-
lone, '37E, chairman of the recep-
tion committee of the Union. Malone
stated, "the decorations for the for-
mal this year are perhaps the most
elaborate we have ever had."
Wencel A.Neumann, '36E, president
of the Union, stated that the purpose
of the annual formal, which was
first held in 1929, "was to give all
students, both independents and
fraternity men, an opportunity to
attend a dance featuring a well-
known band and at a comparatively
reasonable price."
In accordance with the University
ruling, officials stated last night that
the corsages will not be worn.
Individualty Seen
In Style And Color
Of Latest Formals
Last year the cry heard around Ann
Arbor was this: "Oh, for an evening
dress that is different." And this fall
dressmakers seem to be answering
the wish that all college girls treas-
ure a gown that will stand out among
the many outfits at the League and
Union.
If you want to be sophisticated, if
you prefer to be "jeune fille" in but-
terfly skirts, or if you want to suggest
a Greek goddess in draparies, or to
go continental in Chanel's new shawl
evening gown, you may. No matter
what the type of dress your heart de-
sires, you can be new and dashing,
yet retain that comfortably correct
feeling, even if there isn't another
girl in the ballroom who possesses a
dress remotely like yours.
New Materials
Moire and the new taffeta are re-
placing velvet for top-notch place
among materials. Taffeta, though it
has lost its ancient puffy aspect, still
retains its intriguing swish, and
comes in brilliant shades of cerise or
old gold.
Velvet dresses have the same
swinging skirts they achieved last
year, but far more originality in de-
tail. One moss green velvet is in an
Ann Arbor shop distinguished by its
ravishing color, its perfect cut and its
versatility.
Butterfly Skirts
Butterfly skirts of brown net cover
a cream and brown lace sheath in
another Ann Arbor costume inspired
by Paris. The high neck and demure

puff sleeves give the dress the puzz-
ling effect of being both childish and
Parisian.
Perhaps the newest of all, however,
is fashioned from Chanel's shawl eve-
ning gown. One shawl draped square-
ly around the shoulders ,and another
swathed about the hips makes an out-
fit distinctly Gypsy in its inspiration.
A huge flame flower is caught into
the neck.
Columbia Game Draws
Students To New York
The Michigan-Columbia game will
have the atendance of several Michi-
gan students. Among those who are

Schwartz, '38, Phi Sigma Sigma; Es-
ther Greenwood, '36, Pi Beta Phi;

ta; Roberta Melin, '36, Delta Gam-
ma; Stella Glass, '35, Alpha Omicron
Pi, and Alice Burton, '38, Theta Phi
Apha. Angela Firella, '36, and Bar-
bara Whitford, '36, Delta Zetas, are
planning to spend the week-end at
their homes in New York and attend
Saturday's game. -

NAIL POLISH
Parisian designers declared recent-
ly that the black and silver nail polish
will be back again for formals.

"American audiences have shown a
remarkable appreciation for the great
plays of Ibsen," Madame Borgny
Hammer, noted Norwegian actress,
who appeared in the American pre-
mier of Peter Egge's !'Love and
Friendship" last night at the Lydia
Mendelssohn Theater, said after ier
peiformance last night.
"In fact, they have accorded his
plays as enthusiastic a reception as
they have had in Norway," she con-
tinued.
Madame Hammer, who has been
highly praised by Bjornson as the
greatest living interpreter of Ibsen,
will bring to local audiences tonight a
production of "When We Dead Awak-
en." The charming gray-haired ac-
tress, who has spent a life-time in
playing Ibsen both here and in Nor-
way, made her debut at the age of
17 in an Oslo theater.
In commenting on the Egge play
in which she appeared last night,
Madame Egge characterized the play
as "a smart and sophistcated comedy
with vividly-drawn characteriza-
tions." It has been very popular in
Norway, and she believes, it has lost
none of its charm in the English
translation of Karen Dryar. Al-
though Madame Hammer hopes to
present "Love and Friendship" in New
York, her plans are still indefinite.
"Ibsen is perhaps the greatest dra-
matist of the modern stage," she con-
tinued, "and I believe that his women-
characters are truly superb."
This is the second time that Ma-
McEachran House
Entertains Qct. 26
Members of the McEachran League
house are holding their annual Hal-
lowe'en party Saturday night, Oct.
26, from 9 to 12.
Decorations in orange and black
and carved pumpkins, cornstalks and
autumn leaves will be suggestive of
the Hallowe'en spirit. Refreshments
consisting of cake, cider and apples
will be served.
Music for dancing will be furnished
by a six-piece orchestra. The chap-
erones are Miss Lillian Brazil, and
Mr. and Mrs. Sydney Moskowicz. I

dame Hammer has appeared in Ann
Arbor, the first time being in 1923,
when she played here in the title
role of "Hedda Gabler."
Although she has her home in Con-
necticut now, she divides her time
between the Norwegian and the
American stage. Madame Hammer
has for years played an important
part in furthering interest in Nor-
wegian drama in this country, and
was instrumental in founding the
Norwegian theater in New York.
Bridge Planned

Hockey Teams

bor Hockey Club to sponsor touring

nette Saurborn, chairman of the

School, or reservations may be made

At 3:45 p.m., the lawyer's will en-
gage in a hockey game with a picked
W.A.A. team. Miss Hilda Burr and

the game.
The game Saturday will be played
at Palmer Field. The bridge-tea will

ing. Following the game, refresh-
ments will be served, which have been
