mittee said last night.
Each magnified pin will be exhib-
ited on a six-by-nine-foot background
for about two minutes. As far as
possible, the pins will be shown in
color on the silver screen, Krieg said.
Arrangements are the same for the
League and Union.

Buffet Suppers
To BeSunday
The executive council of the Union
will inaugurate the series of buf-
fet suppers to be held every Sunday
evening from 6 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. in
the Union, with a supper held at 6
p.m. Sunday.
The aim of these buffet suppers is
to give students a social hour and
a place to get together for those who
ordinarily haveno special place to
eat Sunday evenings. The scholastic
end, while important, is not being
stressed.
mThe gatherings are open to both
men and women and men are urged
to bring dates. Special invitations
have been extended to fraternities,
sororities, and faculty members!
although everyone is invited to come.
The price of the dinners is 50
cents per plate.
Mexico To Be
Topic Of Talk
By Dr. Fosterl
The A.A.U.W. International Rela-
tions Supper will be held at 6:30 p.m.,
Sunday, in the Michigan League
ballroom.
The main speaker of the evening
will be Dr. O. D. Foster, who has
spent 15 years .in Mexico. He will
speak on "Romance of Shovel and
Trowel in Mexico." Dr. Foster's talk
will be divided into five subdivisions:
1) Beginnings of Civilization in the
West, 2) The Mighty Toltecs, 3) The
Mysterious Mixtecs and Zatotecs, 4)
The Marvelous Mayans, 5) The
Bloody Aztecs. Prof. Jean Paul
Slusser will also speak on the "Art
of Mexico." f

the League.
Shaw traced the beginnings of ther
University from 1787, when thel
Northwest Ordinance providing that
one section in each township be used
for the purpose of education was!
passed.
University Began In 1817 C
It was not until 1817, however, that'
the actual beginnings of the Univer-
sity were made, Shaw pointed out.
At that time, largely through the ef-
forts of Father Gabriel Richard, a
small building was erected in De-
troit, Shaw continued. The speaker
pointed out that this was made pos-
sible through the gift of $5,000 by
the people of Detroit and of land by
the Indians of the neighboring ter-
ritory.
The Catholepistemiad Michigan-
ensis, as the new university was
called, was established according to
an ambitious plan worked out by
Judge Woodward of the Michigan
Supreme Court, a close friend of
Thomas Jefferson, Shaw said. There
were 13 professorships, the speaker
added, of which the president, John
Monteith, a young graduate of
Princeton Theological Seminary, held
seven. The other six were held by the
vice-president, Father Richard.
Venture Unsuccessful
As far as is known, Shaw said, no
courses of collegiate grade were
taught in the Detroit school, because
no students wvere prepared for such
work. The venture was niot success-
ful, and after a few years the trustees
rented the building to a private
school, Shaw related.
In.1837 Michigan became a state
and in 'accordance with a specific
provision in the Constitution, a
Board of Regents was elected and
the University of Michigan created.
The offer of 40 acres of land by the
Ann Arbor Land Company was re-
sponsible for its present location, ac-
cording to Shaw.
Income Was Small
During the first few years, the in-
come of the University was small, the
speaker continued, and only the loan
of $100,000 to the Board of Regents
from the state kept the new institu-
tion alive. No record that this loan
was ever repaid has yet come to
light, Shaw said.
Because of the difficulty of secur-
ing suitably prepared students, six
branches of the University were set
up in towns throughout the state to
serve as preparatory schools, the
speaker said. By 1841, when, said
Shaw, Mason Hall and four profes-
sor's homes were completed, there
were six or seven college students and
several preparatory students 'eady
for the first enrollment.

Tickets for the dance are $2.50 and
may be obtained from committee
members on the evening of the ball
or reseravtions may be made with the
chairman, Mrs. Leland Kennedy, 3227
Lawrence Ave., Detroit.
Costume Reeital
Hel At -
I
By Faculty Club
The Faculty Women's Club held a
costume recital at 3 p.m. yesterday
in the ballroom of the League, fol-
lowed by a reception.
Miss Amy Loomis, dramatic reader,
and Miss Evangeline Maurits, so-
prano, accompanied by Miss Harletta
Thrasher gave a program of scenes
and songs. Miss Loomis, who gradu-
uated from the University in 1922, at
one time directed Junior Girl's Play,
and while attending the University
participated in dramatic activities.
Mrs. Edward L. Adams, president
of the club, and members of the
board, received the artists at the tea
following the program. Mrs. Herbert
Kenyon, Mrs. Joseph Brinkman, Mrs
William H. Sellew and Miss Ethel
A. McCormick resided at the tea
tables.
Mrs. Waiter lHunflt, chairmani of
the committee in ch a " e of the re
ception, was assisted by Mrs. Pred
O'Dell, Mrs. John Eatsn and M2:..
Alfred O. Lee. Also assisting were
Mrs. Wilbur R. Humphreys, Mrs.
Russell C. Hussey, Mrs. Jean Bebrard
Mrs. Avard Fairbanks and Mrs. H
W. Emerson.

general chairman. She will be as

march. All you beautiful girls whoa
have a cherished invitation to t-e:
Intefraternity Ball, fall in line. Thel
latest styles of evening slippers havel
just arrived on the market and theyI
certainly will make fashion history
for novelty and beauty. They are
cut on modernistic lines and are cer-
tainly not the sturdy old bulwarks
that mother would call those "nice,
practical shoes." In fact they are
just about the opposite-embodying
the height of frivolity and daintiness.
There is the very naked style of
the Pandora sandal that has floral
patterns scattered brillantly all over
it. The heel and toe are gracefully
exposed, but the sandal itself comes
high up on the instep. The heel isI
very thin and high, and intends to
give one that exalted feeling. Anoth-
er Pandora slipper has ribbons of
leather braided together over and
over to cover the instep.
Taffeta. Ribbon Used
The distinction of master craft-
'manship is shown in a sandal that
Lhas a scroll-like pattern that comes
up very high over the instep with
three cut-outs marching down the
front of the shoe. They are made in
a white and black crepe for evening.l
The white is used on the heel, and to
trip the pattern on the front. Two
straps of tafetta ribbon make the
vamp a toeless sandal that has white
polka-dots on it to twinkle as you
dance.
A white satin evening pump uses a
bit of embroidery across the vamp.
This decoration -gives the effect of
perforations. The slippr rlends good
fsuppor't, and if you're with a parl ncr
that dips and twirls a g'eat deal, it
Imright bea sensible choice.
rac-Iet And Sandail' Shown
. Another of the series of newly
created sandals that is certain to
have great success is the "bracelet
sandal." This slipper has a delicate
paisley pattern on silk. Colored pat-
ent leather picks up the dominant
-one of the print to outline the grace
of the shoe. There is no toe or heel
1 to the shoe and only a tiny bracelet
strap is used around the ankle.
A strong Roman Revival is shown
