THURSDAY, JANUARY 30, 1936 THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE FM PAGE FIVE Central Committee For Assembly Ball Is Announced By Chairman Second Annual Affair To Be Held At League Date Set For March 13A Mary Ellen Heitsch Will Lead Grand March Ticket Sale Soon Superstition Scorned By Committee To Honor Maureen Kavanagh Eight unaffiliated women were named yesterday to serve as members of the central committee for the 1936 Assembly Ball to be given March 13, in the Ballroom of the League, Mary Ellen Heitsch, '37, general chairman, announced. Janet Karlson, '38, was named as- sistant chairman. The committee chairmen are: Helen Jesperson, '38, chaperons; Josephine Montee, '38, music; Virginia York, '37, programs; Florence McConkey, '38, decorations; Barbara Schacht, '37, publicity; Jane McDonald, '38, finance; and Margaret Anne Ayres, '38, tickets. Appointments Are Made The appointments were made after the unaffiliated women had petitioned to the Executive Board of Assembly. The Board, composed of Maureen Kavanagh, '36, president, the officers, and Miss Ethel McCormick, faculty adviser, announced its selections after it had interviewed each applicant. The dance will mark the second annual Assembly Ball ever to be given by the independent women, and is the only all-campus party which is given by women during the second semester. It corresponds to the Panhellenic Ball given by sorority women during the first semester. The 1935 Assembly Ball was attended by more than 300 couples. Committee Scorns Superstition The central committee scorned all superstition by arranging for this year's dance to fall on Friday the thirteenth, in order to honor the birthday of Miss Kavanagh, this year's Assembly president. The decoration motif has tentative- ly been planned to carry out this scheme. The band is to be announced soon, according to Miss Heitsch. Tickets for the affair will be put on sale at the beginning of the second semester. All members of the central com- mittee are associated with the As- sembly, each having served on many committees. lumna Plans European Trip Next Summer Mary Karpinski To Spend Vacation Bicycling In England And France Among the various vacation trips planned for this summer, one of the most interesting is that anticipated by Mary Karpinski, '28. Miss Kar- pinski will bicycle through England and France with a group of graduate students and teachers under the charge of John C. Dengler, Jr., di- rector of the Student's International Travel Association. The tour is part of an international project which has for its object the promotion of peace and good will among the youth of the various coun- tries. Every summer separate groups of high school pupils, college stu- dents and young teachers travel by bicycle, bus and faltboot, a sort of collapsible sailboat, through France, Germany, Austria, England and Scandinavia. The trips are plan- ned as economically as possible. Students travel third class on ship- board and stop over night at the youth hotels, which are placed at convenient intervals along the route. Opportunities are provided to become acquainted sufficiently with the for- eign languages to converse with the natives. Miss Karpinski will teach French on her tour this summer. Miss Karpinski will sail on the steamer Franconia June 2 from New York. Included in the itinerary are such places of universal interest as Kenilworth, home of Sir Walter Scott, Stratford-on-Avon, Stone- henge, England, and Brittany and the castle country of the Loire in France. The trip will occupy 10 weeks.

Faculty-Alumni ancegHeld In Union Ballroom Bements And Moores Give Dinner Parties Before Gay EveningBall By BETSEY ANDERSON More than 100 couples danced to the strains of Bob Steinle's Union Band last night in the Union Ball- room at the third Faculty-Alumni Dance sponsored by the Faculty Women's Club. Among those noted in the gay as- semblage were Mrs. Benjamin W. Wheeler, who was charming in a gown of black net with ruffles, and Mrs. Walter B. Rea, who selected white matelasse. Mrs. Donal H. Haines proved most appealing in flame chiffon, accen- tuated with flowers of the same color worn at the shoulder. Mrs. John F. Huber was lovely in a" white dress and white tiera. Prof. George R. Moore, research associate in the Uni- versity Elementary School, and Mrs. Moore were prominent among the dancers, with Mrs. Moore attractive. in a sweeping gown of black velvet. Professor and Mrs. Moore gave a dinner party before the dance, as did Dr. and Mrs. Newton S. Bement. Mrs. Walter V. Marshall seemed to be among the most popular faculty wives of the evening. Flowered crepe was chosen by Mrs. Ivan H. Walton, while Mrs. C. A. Bradley, Jr., wore a green crepe frock with gold clips. A gold hair ornament in the style which appears destined for a cer- tain and well-deserved popularity set off the entire ensemble to good effect. Also at the dance were Dean Clare E. Griffin of the School of Business Administration, and Mrs. Griffin; Prof. James K. Pollock of the political science department, and Mrs. Pollock; Prof. Charles L. Jamison of the School of Business Administration, and Mrs. Jamison; and Prof. Floyd A. Fire- stone of the physics department, and Mrs. Firestone. Others who aided in proving that adults are just as capable as the stu- dent body at showing to advantage in the Union Ballroom were Prof. Lawrence Preuss of the political sci- ence department, and Mrs. Preuss; the Rev. Harold P. Marley, pastor of the Unitarjan Church, and Mrs. Marley; and Prof. Henry M. Kendall of the geography department, and Mrs. Kendall. I St. Valentine Gowns Are Most Beautiful Of Year In Style And Cut By RUTH SAUER Formals are a subject of much dis- cussion these days when all the girls are thinking about their attire for that night of nights when the juniors give their party of the year. St. Valentine will add a touch of ro- mance to the event. In case you are still undecided about what to wear, just go browsing in the shops about town for an inspiration. They are now showing the most beautiful gowns of the season. Black iet formals are extremely popular for mid-winter. Embroid- ered with white designs or covered with ruffles, they are ethereal and very sophisticated. One is plain black with a single ruffle around the neck and around the bottom of the ski-t. It has a little capelet trim- med with black ruching. Others that are very smart are trimmed with white flowers, embroidered all over the dress and jacket. One of them has a plain black ruffle around the skirt extending from the knees, and a closely gathered ruffle around the jacket. Another has ruching of black and white for trimming. If you have never worn a flattering gown of black net, you must look at them, for they are guaranteed to make any girl feel like a princess. Yellow Net Shown A little lighter in color but no less exquisite is a yellow net formal be- ing shown in one of the stores. The dress is plain, with a low neck and a ruffle around the skirt. The jacket is the most adorable one we have seen. It is one solid mass of tiny yellow ruffles and looks like some- thing out of fairyland. A more tailored gown is of red nov- elty crepe with a halter neck. It is -- gathered with a / rope of the same material that has two huge tassels on' the end. They reach all the way to the floor and give a very novel and sophisti- cated effect. \1 . In case you arej interested in a com- bination di n n e r gown, cocktail gown' and formal, you must see some of( the two- and three- piece dresses of the new "bengaline." It isa tailored serge- like silk material that makes dresses just as smart look- ing as a tuxedo. One trimming. Underneath is the for. mal of plain black bengaline. Exotic Chiffon Smart Chiffon also makes exotic forma gowns. A pale, ice-blue creation i one that caught our eye. It is trim- med with little "carioca" ruffles al the way down the back, and it ha a high neck, trimmed with a flounc of the same mater- ial. The formal ef- fect is heightened by a slit up the mid-f dle of the back. An- other gown is of a raspberry shade, cut along Grecian lines, trimmed with braid in front and has two ( long floating panels, a+,. fastened atpthe shoulders. Lace gowns are al- so being shown now. They are practical as well as attrac- tive, for they can be worn later in the spring. Bright col- ored laces interwov- en with gold and silver threads, are beautiful with dark velvet skirts. An at- tractive light blue gown that we saw had a jacket to ' match, with a full peplum around the bottom. At the conclusion of our shopping tour, the only thing we can suggest is that every girl interested in a new formal or dinner dress take a look at the treasure chest of gowns be- ing shown now in our local shops. yvern lans Last Luncheon For Freshmen The last in a series of six luncheon meetings for freshmen women being given under the sponsorship of Wyv- ern, junior honorary society, will be held at noon today in the north- east alcove of the League Grill Room. This meeting is being held espe- cially for non-affiliated women. The Assembly and activities pertaining to them in particular will be dis- cussed. Gretchen Lehmann and Mary Andrew are in charge of the meeting. The purpose of these meetings is to acquaint freshmen women with the different fields of activities they will be able to enter at the beginning of the second semester and to enable them to decide which ones they are especially interested in. The other five meetings included discussions of the class projects cover- ing the Freshman Project, the Soph- omore Cabaret and the Junior Girls Play; publications; the merit system; the social and house reception com- mittees of the League; the theatre arts committee which includes the Children's Theatre and Play Produc- tion. MICHIGAN DAMES TO MEET The Michigan Dames drama group will hold a meeting at 8 p.m. today at the home of Mrs. Carl V. Weller, 1130 Ferdon Rd. Several members of the group will present "Personal Ap- pearance." O. K. ON MIDNIGHT BLUE Midnight blue will be the predomi- nant color in both tuxedos and full dress suits at the J-Hop this year. The distinguishing feature of this shade is that it appears blacker than black under the lights. ti t 1 .fI. 1. 1 : . . : Steinle, Cowan Juries To Ex Will Play For Plastic Art dl The juries which hav Birthday Ball by the Ann Arbor A: forthe exhibition of Annual Dance To Be Held Ann Arbor artists, wi Tonght In Intra judge the exampleso onig n ramura Plastic art submitted; Sports Building in Alumni Hall from Fe The members of thc The President's Birthday Ball will tures are R.
