The cast of "Un Client Serieux" is composed of the following mem- bers of the faculty of the Romance Languages Department: Prof. Em- eritus Arthur Canfield, former head of the Department; Professors Ed- ward Adams, Philip Bursley, Marc Denkinge, Herbert Kenyon, Charles Knudson and William McLaughlin; Mr. Francis Gravit, Mr. Charles K. Koella and Mr. Harry, Skornia. This is the first time in the 31 years that the Cercle Francais plays have been, presented that members of the fac- ulty have taken part. Cast Is Announced The three characters of "La Farce du Cuvier" will be played by Row- ena E. LaCoste, '39, Douglas N. Mor- gan, '40E, and Alice E. Woodruff, '38. Members of the cast of "L'Ecole des Belles-Meres" will be Misha M. Chimacoff, '38, Marcia Connell, '39, Martha E. Dynes, '39, Elizabeth S. Parrish, '37 Harriet Shackleton, '38, and Nikolay M. Turitzin, Grad. "Un Client Serieux" is a humorous satire of French judicial procedure. Lagoupille, a lamp-lighter has been accused of giving M. Alfred, a cafe owner, a black eye, and is defended during the first part of the play by Barbemolle, a shyster lawyer. When Baroemoiie aiscovers he has been made a "Substitut" or govern- ment attorney, "his flowery descrip- tions of the virtues of Lagoupille disappear from his memory and he paints Lagoupille as an enemy of society, a loafer and a drunkard. In spite of this sudden change in his attorney's attitude, Lagoupille is ac- quitted and M. Alfred must pay the costs of the trail. To Give Medieval Comedy "La Farce du Cuvier" is a medieval slap-stick comedy which originally served as a short interlude between the acts of a longer mystery play, and as such, is complete in itself. Brieux's "L'Ecole des Belles- Meres" is written in a lighter vein than most of his social plays, al- though he has a didactic purpose in mind. He is trying .to correct the influence of parental interference in marriage. This is the last Cercle Francais presentation of the year. Tickets are 50 cents, 25 cents to holders of Cercle Francais membership cards, and will be on sale Thursday and Friday at the Lydia Mendelssohn box-office.

But not reluctantly did we return for there are those spring lays in Ann Arbor that can't be resisted, lilac time, and our own Michigras! * * SPRING CLEANING seems to be in the air at this point, so let's join the ranks! Now we had better put it a little more mildly and say spring treatment when speaking of the face, but anyway it's the same idea. This treatment is all boxed for you by Dorothy Gray in grey and ready for you at CALKINS-FLETCHERS. There are two types, you see they aim to please, one for'- dry skin and one for normal skin with creams and lotions to take that winter dryness away and leave in its place a fresh, lovely, and glQw- ing skin. So while Ann Arbor is dealing in spring cleaning, we can follow along in step - especially after the dust and grime of Mich- igras ! ANOTHER SIGN of Spring is the navy blue and white combi- nation in those new frocks. Your gadder figured that you'd be in the market for some new "date" dresses in the very latest styles and colors, so in my travels I dis- covered some "knockouts." At the ELIZABETH DILLON SHOP navy blue and white are being especi- ally featured and among the many, many cute things I saw those attractive Phoenix dresses by Barnale -navy net seemed to be tops in these dresses and one in particular had trimming of red and white - red lapels on the jacket and white buttons sailor- fashion on the blouse. Another navy net was trimmed with unique clock buttons (what will they think of next?). Marquisette, too, will be very popular this season with frilly trims. And incident- ally you must see the navy sheer trimmed in red (no white this time, but this one can't be passed over without a word). A series of red zipper buttons lends an in- genious touch of color, and if you have never seen zipper buttons, now is the time to do it. Well, it won't be long now before the Michigan men will be having "navy dates." IN THE MOOD for spring treat- ments and spring clothes? Then you are certainly in the market for a spring trimming - hair, of course! O, yes, we do a bit of everything here in Ann Arbor and your correspondent has discovered THE place to have your hair trimmed by Mr. Bartlett at the DI MATTIA BEAUTY SHOP - where you may have your hair trimmed any way your little heart may desire it and then, of course, the Di Mattia coiffuriers stand at attention to give it that final touch!
