Alumnae Hear
Description Of
Mexican Life
Mrs. B. S. Fisher Gives
'Vivid' Lecture On 'Our
Nearest Neighbor'
Mrs. F. B. Fisher of Detroit ac-
quainted her audience yesterday in
her lecture before the meeting of the
Michigan Alumnae Group held yes-
terday at the League with what she
called "Mexico - Our Nearest Neigh-
bor."
Her first impression, Mrs. Fisher
said, was surprise at finding a coun-
try so very different from ours yet
so close and easily accessible "simply
by sliding over the border in a pull-
man train."
Describes Country
She went on to prove this differ-
ence by a vivid description of the
country, and spoke of its marvelous
gardens and profusion of flowers
everywhere, its wide vistas and its
thatched roof houses in certain re-
gions with their mud walls and tiled
bathrooms, an American influence.
In a discussion of the native in-
habitants, she revealed the fact that
a new national consciousness is aris-
ing in Mexico, resulting in a pride of
the Indian culture where originally
was shame for it, and the consequent
rebirth of Indian art. There has
been a casting aside of Spanish names
and a replacing of them with Indian
titles, and a resentment at being
called Spanish. "The Indian spirit
has been bent but never broken," Mrs.
Fisher said.
Traces Aborigines
One of the main reasons for Mrs.
Fisher's visit to Mexico was the pos-
sibilities offered there for tracing the
ancestry of the aborigines. These
people, the lecturer stated, do not
have the mongol fold over the eyes
which the Chinese mongols have, but
resemble more closely the American
Indians and are believed to have been
native to North America rather than
the Eastern continent.
Mrs. Fisher is the wife of Dr. F. B.
Fisher, former pastor of the First;
MethodistChurch of Ann Arbor, who
is now pastor of the Central Meth-
odist Church, Detroit.

Combination Of Practicality,
Smartness Found In New Knits

By BARBARA LOVELL
It would be hard to select anything
more popular or more universally be-
coming than the new knits. They
are happy combinations of practi-
cality and smartness and are appro-
priate for almost any occasion.
For campus there are any number
of good-looking suits. Of course
handknits are tops in this field but
manufacturers are clever about re-
producing stitches, and there have
been cases where experts have mis-
taken a machine-made garment for a
handknit. One very smart model is
composed of a straight Dubonnet
skirt worn with a belted grey blouse.
An ascot matching the skirt bright-
ens the neckline.
Blouses Of Gay Colors
Somewhat more complicated is a
three-piece suit of clove-brown with a
blouse striped in a particularly gay'
rainbow of colors. The new cable
stitch appears to advantage in a one-
piece raspberry dress as well as in a
sweater featuring a bright, clear new
apricot shade.
Another suit is dark blue with red
candy stripes on the collar and four
patch pockets, buttoned down the
front with blue bone buttons. Grey
wool is fashioned into a carefully
fitted knit distinguished by frog fas-
tenings and braided yarn epaulettes.-
Triangular Scarfs
A large triangular shawl scarf,
striped in cheerful colors, can be
worn in innumerable different ways.
Besides helping to make an 8 o'clock
dress less dreary it keeps one's shoul-
ders warm during a session of dormi-
tory studying.
Dull leather belts are good. A
faded green one combined with a red
scarf looks well on a tweedy worsted
mixture. An all-black skirt to be
worn with a black blouse embroidered
in green illustrates the fact that em-
broidery is due for a return to pop-
ularity.
Sunday Night Knits
Knits are equally as smart in the
dressier styles. For afternoon wear
a chenille in glowing renaissance col-
ors is soft and flattering, the jeweled
note introduced by a pair of sparkling
clips. The deep, rich shades also
appear in a simply made model, its
ribbed top ending in a small ruff

collar and tied with a velvet bow.
One of the flattering "Sunday night
knits" features a dainty crocheted
Cardinal Richelieu collar and ball
buttons. These knits always reflect
the ultimate in simplicity and good
taste.
A particularly fortunate inspiration
is lame knit, a new fabric, distin-
guished by a tiny gold thread, which
is both satsifactorily glittering and
delicately soft. A ! gleaming gold
buckle is the only ornamentation so
one's interest is not distracted from
the novelty of the material. This style
would be appropriate for almost any
informal evening.

Dance Is Planned
By Hillel Members
Marking the initiation of the mem-
bership drive for the Hillel Founda-
tion, a tea and dance will be held at
the Foundation from 4 to 6 p.m.
Thursday, Nov. 14, sponsored by the
Hillel Council.
The dance will be in charge of'
Charlotte Kahn, '37, and will sup-
plant the regular weekly Thursday
afternoon tea at the Hillel Founda-
tion.
An innovation in the procedure for
the reception committee has been de-
vised by the committee in charge of
the weekly Hillel teas. Every Jewish
woman on the campus will be asked
to serve on the reception committee
for one of these teas in the hope that
many will become interested in the
Hillel and its activities.

The dinner dance dress shown

high, and the shirtwaist, fashioned
of white metallic cloth, is set off by
a perky black bow and metallic
buttons down the front. A pocket
forms a startling detail on an even-
inw dress.

REAR ADMIRAL BYRD

THE DON COSSACK RUSSIAN MALE CHORUS is unique,
from the standpoints both of origin and of accomplish-
ment. Prisoners of war when the Russian Imperial forces were
overcome, they "whiled away their time" in a prison camp by
singing simple choral music. Then under the magnetic influ-
ence of their diminutive but dynamic leader, SERGE JAROFF,
they undertook more serious music. Without music books or
instruments, they attempted to substitute for an army band.
They attracted the attention of their captors and were ex-
tended some few courtesies. After their release they could not
return to their native land because they had been expatriated.
As a group they did "church singing" in one of the Balkan
cathedrals and soon were in demand for concerts. Their tours
spread throughout central Europe with ever-increasing en-
thusiasm. Their short trips to America on several occasions
have been in the nature of triumphal marches. Their pro-
grams of sacred music, folk tunes, and stirring soldier songs
of the "Cossacks on the March," appeal to the discriminating
