Martha Cook
Has Reception
For Lecturer
Dorothy Thompson Tells
Views At Dormitory In
Informal Talk
After her lecture last night in Hill
Auditorium, Dorothy Thompson, wife
of Sinclair Lewis, was entertained in-
fonally at Martha Cook Building
as the guest of Mrs. Kathleen Codd
and Miss Sara Rowe.r
Among the guests present were Miss
Ethel McCormick, Mrs. C. S. Yoakum,
Miss Alice Lloyd, Mrs. Randolph G.
Adams, Mrs. Jesse S. Reeves, Miss
Reeves, Mrs. Lucille Conger, and sev-
eral members of Alpha Chi Omega
soi ority, to which Miss Thompson be-
longs.
Punch and cookies were served in
the Blue Room by Mary Delnay, '36;
Jean Hollenbeck, '37; Eraine Hem-
meter, '37; and Grace Woodley, '37.
Marguerite Creighton sang a selec-
tion from Carmen and a song en-
titled Ashes of Roses.
Although Miss Thompson did not
give a speech, she was bombarded
with questions by women who had
heard her lecture. One of her most
interesting views is that America to-
day is far more absorbing than Eu-
rope. Any expected debacle in Eur-
ope, she said depends upon a far
more important debacle in Amer-
ica, where, she believes, a revolution
is taking place, that will shape the
course of American national life as
profoundly as did the Civil war.
If she were to graduate from col-
lege now, Miss Thompson said, she
would not go to Europe. She would
spend three years learning to know
conditions in the United States, work-
ing first on a San Francisco paper,
she explained, then on a Los Angeles
paper, perhaps then take a sojourn
in Seattle, and finally go to Washing-
ton.
Economics, political science, and
history are the best college subjects
for a newspaperwoman, Miss Thomp-
son believes. History cannot be em-
phasized too much, she said, because,
like Goethe, she believes man cannot
know anything about today without
an intimate knowledge of the past 3,-
000 years.
Miss Thompson attended University
of Chicago her first college year, and
then finished at Syracuse University
in two years because she was "boredr
with college."

American Freed
Is Praised By
Contrasts Campus Spirit
To That Of Typical
Oriental School
By HELEN M. DOUGLAS
Commending America for its free-
dom and efficiency, Charmaine Tseu,
'37, Shanghai, compared the demo-
cratic informality of University stu-
dents here with the strict formality
of students in her own country in an
interview yesterday.
Miss Tseu's first name, Charmaine,
was adopted at the suggestion of her
brother, Tsangtze, who has spent
many years in France. Charmaine
is equivalent to the name Tsangming
in Chinese.
Born In Chekiang
Born in Chekiang, situated in
southern China, Miss Tseu attended
the Virginia School for Girls, an
American missionary school. Follow-
ing her graduation, she studied medi-
cine at the German Institution at
Shanghai, and came directly to Mich-
igan, arriving here last September.
Miss Tseu originally planned to get
her college education in Germany, but
her family objected to "Hitler's race
theory." Consequently, on the
recommendation of a friend, she de-
cided to enter the College of Phar-
macy of this University - expecting
to teach or to enter into clinical work
in her home land in the future.
Likes American Spirit
"I am impressed with the friendli-
ness of the studetson this campus,"
she said. "In China everyone is so
reserved. I have noticed here that
people whom I don't know often greet
me on passing. This could never
happen at a Chinese university."
Miss Tseu, an accomplished pian-
ist, regrets not being able to continue
her studies in this field, due to the
fact that her work in pharmacy leaves1
her no leisure time. She stated that1
occidental instruments, especially the
violin and piano, are very popular
with Chinese students.
Another interesting fact disclosed
Beak Atmosphere
Covers Campus As
Examinations Near
A change has come over the cam-~
pus. This strange visitation is ac-
companied with an ominous silence,
accented only by the drifting ,:now.1
The student body as a group has hib-
ernated with its textbooks.
No blaring trumpets will break the
frosty week-end stillness surrounding
fraternity houses. Even the chink of
glasses at the Bell will have a sub-
dued tone, and the dogs who stalk
squirrels back of Haven Hall have
desisted from their daily pastime. A
date now means, galoshes, earmuffs,
woolies, and anevening at the library
with one's favorite authority on eco-
nomics or materia 'medica. Down
on Sate Street order reigns.
Over in the dormitories gallons of
black coffee are being consumed for
fortification against nights of goonish
pastime. And 'way up on the hill by
Mosher-Jordan there is no sound save
the howling wind whipping around
he corners, while the thermometer
goes down... down.

by this Chinese student was that
American-made movies are surpris-
ingly numerous in Shanghai, which
she termed "the international city."
The same players who are popular
here appeal to Oriental audiences.
This is evident in the fact that Clau-
dette Colbert and Warner Baxter are
among the most well-liked.

Sport Styles Decree Plaid
Skirts, Tweed Jackets In
Tailored Cut
One must admit that a coat is a
very important article of apparel from
the point of view of style and neces-
sity alike. But the dress that goes
under the coat is equally important -
particularly as it is seen more than
usual this year beneath the hem of a
swagger style fur or cloth coat.
For Sports Wear
For sports wear, any nice tweed
jacket or sweater and skirt combina-
tion is, as usual, good. Incidentally,
sweaters, though they have had a long
run since last October, will continue
to be popular up through April in
lighter yarns and pastel shades. Sport
dresses in warm, colored wool are
equally good. Plaids are particularly
attractive this year -not too definite
or bright (except in scarfs), but in-
determinate and soft.
For afternoon tea or Sunday eve-
nings, there are numerous charming
styles. Most of them are suitable
now, even though they definitely sa-
vour of spring. Others will be most
welcome through March and April.
A navy-blue frock of sheer wool with
small white pique collar and lacings
on the cuffs is both youthful and
smart.
Grey For Afternoon
A delightful afternoon tea dress in
grey crepe is made with hundreds
of small graceful pleats which are
bound into tucks in the bodice and
shoulders. The fullness of skirt makes
it ideal for dancing. Black silk jersey
is "one of the darlings of the sea-
son." Made up into a short-sleeved
afternoon dress with the ever-popular
tucks flared out into another full,'
pleated skirt, and graced with a cowel
neck, demure cuffs in white crepe
Pastel Woolens, Printed Silks
Forecast Fashions For Spring
and patent leather belt, it is a prom-
ise of spring in itself.
For informal dinner, printed satin
is extremely chic. Black or dark
satin, etched wit ha delicate design
in white is piquant and different.
Made up with a draped neck line and
enhanced by one or two clever acces-
sories, it will be suitable for any but
sport occasions.
Weol For Spring
Another model in navy-blue wool
is ideal for very early, spring. Its
high neck, kimono sleeves and small
pockets, bound in bright red-and-
white pique add a fresh, enlivening
touch.
More advanced styles in spring
prints are fitting sequels to the ear-
lier modes. Bright bits of color
in all imaginable shapes -hearts,
triangles and diamonds -sprinkled
on a white or pastel background make
a frock like an April nosegay. One
might add that sandals, in colors as
gay as those of the material, will be
worn along with straw hats and light
gloves.
