SUNDAY, MAY 30, 1937 THE MICHIGAN DAILY. Women's Golf Started On Old Orchard Links Classes Began In 1927; Mrs. Stewart Hanley Taught First Class By RUTH FRANK Fore!-and the golf classes in the fall of 1927 started the rounds of the Old Orchard Course. Eating apples that fell from the 23 apple trees that dotted the course, they learned how to swing a club. One hundred and seven women came out for the golf that first sea- son when Mrs. Stewart Manley, Mich- igan State champion, came to Ann Arbor once a week to teach the fun- damentals of the game. Since 1927 the number in the classes has grown steadily, and more than 200 freshman women are now taking golf for their physical educa- tion requirement. There are 10 classes for the arts college students and three for the school of education, each of which meets twice a week. Mrs. Hanley has worked with the groups since the first season. She came to live in Ann Arbor in 1931 to become officially a member of the physical education staff. Club Sponsors Matches The Pitch and Putt Club, which was started last year, is an elective group, organized to offer a means for women to continue practice and enjoy match golf. More than 20 women belong to this club, which sponsors matches with other golf clubs in the vicinity. That women are becoming more and more interested in golf is evident to anyone who plays the game. A sur- very was made in 1931 by a club man- ufacturer which showed that of all the lessons given during the period of 1930-31, 80 per centhofthem were given to women. These statistics might prove that men do not take lessons in order to play golf and tht w omen do-but they also show how important women think it is to play golf and play correctly. 1s Social Attribute Golf has become an exceedingly important social attribute. It is the one sport which is played north, east, south and west, at all country clubs. Only the non-athletic type of wom- en can appreciate how great an asset it is to be able to drive a ball a 100 yards, make two chip shots to the green, sink a 10 foot putt, walk the 18 holes and not be exhausted. Golf, however is, not limited to the "weak- lings" in sport; it is played by the sturdiest, mastered by veritable ath- letes. As far as health is concerned, golf fulfills all requirements. If furnishes, according to the physical education authorities, "the moderate outdoor type of exercise that is needed for health." One reason for its univer- sal appeal is that it can be played by men and women of all ages, and is tlie one game that a person can con- tinue practicing as he progresses in 'years. Practice Makes Perfect The more you play, the better you play, and the better you like the game, so say the golfers, particularly those of the Pitch and Putt Club, They urge more women to participate in the tournament matches held each fall and spring, from which the four best scores are taken to compose the team of the club. If after learning the game, and after some diligent practice, you cannot make the team, you at least will be able to enter into the fun of sports with anyone who likes the open air. Junior Tennis Title Captured By F. Bonisteel Frances Bonisteel, '40, yesterday won the Michigan junior girls' Open State Tennis Championship for 1937 by defeating Virginia Kyner of De- troit, 6-1, 3-6, 6-4 in the finals at Kingswood School, Cranbrook. Miss Bonisteel, who won six matches to reach the finals, was awarded a gold medal. She is the first Ann Ar- bor woman to win the Kingswood championship. A loss of one set was all she suf- fered to reach the final round. Miss Bonisteel's opponents included the Leona and Carol Wheatley, of Copiac, Joan Bergman of Detroit and Ellen Wallace of Kingswood. Margery B. Gillen, '40. was run- ner up in the 1935 contest. She re- ceived a silver award. -- h- -- Helped Defeat Ann Arbor Golf Team For Warm Weather Chic Try These women, with the four other members of the University women's golf team, recently defeated the Ann Arbor Women's golf team in two successive tournaments which were played on the University Golf Course.

Tailored Suits Sharkskin, Linen Weaves Are Cool And Practical; White Is Popular By MARIAN FERGUSON Whatever your plans for the sum- mer may be, cool, practical tailored suits and two-piece ensembles will prove a blessing. While traveling, or trying to look well-groomed for a new job, their chic and versatility will help to keep the spirits unwilted. Fitted jacket suits are often cut; with swinging skirts, half-belts and a single button. Even the names of new fabric weaves like, sharkskin and silk linen-are breezy and refresh- ing. With conventional white suits either dark tailored silk blouses or brilliant prints will accent the crisp- ness of the ensembles. Leaves Used As Buttons An especially interesting suit has a short jacket of imported linen but- toned with patent-leather leaves. Al rust polka-dot crepe swing skirt, a scarf of the same material and a I narrow patent belt complete the col- or contrast. Another jacket suit of silk shantung consists of a con- fetti-showered jacket and a navy skirt. Brilliant col& against a white as smooth and cool as vanilla ice cream is the motif of new two-piece en- sembles. A white silk shirtwaist dress flaunts a silk jacket in a wild, bright plaid with a plaid handker- chief peeping out of a breast pocket, And Ensembles "" " " A miscellaneous shower for Ruth SFowler, '38, who will marry Robert Theatres: Michigan, "Night Must an(, a wide belt of the same print.

Raleigh Nelson will hold an informal tea for all de- parting foreign students from 4 to 6 p.m., Sunday, June 13, at their home. This tea will be given for all foreign students who are sailing for their home countries at the close of school. Students are asked to inform Pro- fessor Nelson if they will be able to attend, as transportation will be fur- nished if necessary. Merida Hobart Wins Tennis Championship Merida M. Hobart, '38, won the University Women's tennis cham- pionship yesterday by defeating Catherine A. Sanders, '38, in two straight sets, 6-2, 6-2. Miss Hobart entered the finals after defeating Margaret B. Veen- boer, '37, 6-0, 6-1 in the semi-finals. Miss Sanders defeated Margaret I. Waterston, '38, 6-0, 6-0 in the semi- finals. Most attrActive and flattering are light weight wool suits in delicate pastels. They are absolutely per- fect for traveling because the wool has enough body to keep from wrink- ling in trains or in automobiles, and the flower colors strike the right note for summer. A matching felt snap brim ,a fragile blouse or sweat- er and brown and white shoes would complete an unrivalled traveling en- semble.
