DAY, APRIL 4, 1939 T HE MICHIGAN DAILY .PiAGE FIV TatyL By the Neighbor April 3, 1939 Dearest Wilbur, Just think . . . only 72 hours and I can see you again. Won't you be surprised when you see my new saddle shoes? You asked me what's been happening lately, so I will tell you about my last Sat. till Mon. Mosher Hall defeated Alpha Phi by a score of 28-19. The members of the winni . . . pardon me, Wilb'ur, but the city editor just walked by. What was.I saying, oh, yes, when Harold Garn and Peggy Dalton walled into the S.A.E. dinner party a half hour late, the whale fraternity rose and stood at attention . . . dead silence . . It must be an old Q.A.. custom that you learn with the "Violets." George Kingsbury and Marcy Towns- ley consumed unbelievable amounts of proteins, and Betty Stout and Larry Thomas, "His Royal Dryness," had their usual discussion about which angle to wear his pin. Bob Moffet and Jane 'Skiley loved the "spuds." Got Any Clues, Wilbur? . Shades of Pu Manchu . . . Some people say that it was Frank Rhein- hammer that was spooking people with a Michigan blanket over his suit at the Phi Kap dance, but who can be sure? Anyway, Pete Gossard and Betty Barney weren't taking any chances. Joanna Dailey said that it was a deep secret and you'd have to be on the inside to ® understand it. At the Theta Delt party on Friday night Barbara Johnson and Deacon McCall (you remember them from last year) were talking things over confidentially. Bill Chamberlain and Virginia Brereton executed some trick twirls after every number. But Peopall seemed to remark that something was missing. Do you think it could have been John G. Eldridge, who was indisposed at home? Jeff Hall insisted that he needed money to buy earmuffs for his gold fish, and no one . t1 knew where your friend, Johnny Barr was. And then there was the case of the worried girl who heard her room- mate was bringing home a bunny. Connie William's pink footed one that she won at the Union Bunny Hop has one eye lost in his whiskers. Pat Loughead and Dick Ludwig decided their bunny was exotic, even if it was knock-kneed. Kay Cramer and Max Busard and Kay Williams and Russ Fischer hopped around like happy fleas. Speaking of little animals, you can imagine the b worries of Martha Poe when she found a fly living in her coffee at the Gamma Phi dinner in the League. Dick '. Mead practically had to disect an antenna to prove it - . was only a wire fly. Back at the dance, Rae Gustafson, r Johnny Ruccus, Bob Hotchkiss, Lee Hardy, and Dusty Rhodes shagged and exchanged sallies, as old friends will. It took John Holton and Betty Gould to show what suave dancing really is. Ted Novac stayed his usual two min- utes and then he and Pedo Ortmeyer returned to where they came from. No Shysters Allowed Remember Doug Edwards and Peg McGregor? They could have sworn that they saw a shyster "right over there in the corner" at Crease Ball, but Carrel Langsten and Joyce Hammond insisted that he was only a flat foot. Betty Cole and John Rae seemed deeply impressed by some statement in the "Raw Review" about disorder- ly conduct. Don Maxon and Shirley Roberts and Jim Grahm and Ginny Sappington and Pat Patterson and Johnny Johnston seemed to dance on and on. I heard the Betas had a. party, too, but then, enough is enough. So you can see, Wilbur, that Ann Arbor doesn't need a Hitler or a five alarm fire to keep things a-zipping. Forever, Your own Mable. P.S. You asked me if I'm still going steady with you. What makes you think I'm not? Staff Will Give Senior Women. Health Checkup, White Accents For Chic White Organdie Or Lace Makes Cool Sheer Blouses For Spring, Four irs For Consecutive Years Only Requirement Medical Exam All senior women who have attend- ed the University for four consecu- tive years will be given the oppor- tunity for a complete health exam- ination by the Health Service staff after Spring Vacation, Dr. Margaret Bell, director of physical education for women, announced. Complete Examination The examination will include a complete re-examination of eyes, ears, nose and teeth as well as the general examination and health conferences. Letters will be sent this week to all heads of dormitories, league houses and sororities, and immediately fol-. lowing Spring Vacation a letter will be mailed to each student eligible for} the examination stating the two- weeks' limit within which she may make her appointment. Those who do not make their appointments at the time specified in the letters will have no other opportunity to do so. When the students make their ap- pointments at the Health Service they will be given an intensive ques- tionnaire, which Dr. Bell asks that they fill out as accurately as pos- sible. Exam To Aid Research Although the Health Service would like to give this examination to all senior women, numbering approxi- mately 600, it will be impossible to handle any more than the fdur-year women, numbering approximately 200, Dr. Bell said. The purpose of these examinations, in addition to their obvious benefits, is to enable the Health Service to compare the state of the individual senior's health today with her con- dition at the time of entering the{ University, Dr. Bell said. This sur- vey is being conducted because of articles which have appeared in magazines stating that a woman's health ordinarily deteriorates while she is at college. House Heads Will Meet t The association of league houset presidents, which is one of the threef subdivisions of Assembly, will meet at 4:15 p.m. today in the League, Mary Frances Reek, '40, Assembly, president, announced yesterday.- The meeting will be held to discuss .1 plans for next year's work. Atten- dance is compulsory, Miss Reek said. Not so long ago the co-ed of '27 slipped on a pair of "Goo"lashes and a dress three or five inches below her original waistline. With her high- heeled shoes and a fresh marcel in her hair she was all set for the soror- ity tea. Back To Victorian Era Today her younger sister is going far behind the "giddy" twenties for her inspiration in dress. When she walks out to the sorority teas she is likely to be wearing a Victorian dress- Smakersuit with a sheer blouse under it. The blouses she may chose from are of all the pastel shades from theI reds to the grays. Pink dressmaker shirts are among the most popular selections. One such model has demure pockets on each side with stitching -along, the neck- line. Light blue and amber yellow blouses match exceedingly well with a dark suit of the same color. White Is Refreshing Nevertheless, it is the dainty, white blouse which has been receiving an encore from the spring minded. Crisp 'and immaculate looking it adds a re- freshing spark to the duskiest of out- fits. Lace and pique are tne most sought after materials for these blouses. An example that caught our attention was a short sleeved one with a little round collar. Six colourless buttons marched down the front, each one being smaller than the one at the top. It is predicted that these blouses will be worn under cardigans as well as with suits. Blouses With Formals Nor do they have a chance to rest up in the evening, for diaphomous blouses are being shown for formal wear with full skirts. Especially with shadowy shades they are effective. Such styles often have a figured de- k'sign wending its way across the front and back. Flowers, and bizarre pitch forks may seem entirely out of touch with each other in their attitudes, but they meet on common ground in one L striking model. In this case the flow- ers were white and the forks were black. figure out a blouse which will be asC serviceable as a cardigan and yet more feminine. Perhaps Vionet has the answer in her startling creation of a "Cardigan Blouse." This one is as long as the average Brooks Sweat-' er. It buttons down the front and is gathered at the waist. One can purchase it with its twin, which is of the same material but has no but- tons except at the actual top. Vionet's model is of silk jersey, trimmed with pique buttons. Ticket Sale Begins For Swing Sessions Tickets for the Swing Sessions, to be given for four Wednesdays be- ginning April 19 at the League, arel now on sale at the League and Union main desks at $2 a couple, Elva Pas- coe, Grad., director of the sessions announced yesterday. Complimentary tickets have been mailed to Tom Harmon, '41, and Mr. and Mrs. John C. Brennan, as well as to the various couples who have been chosen as the best dancers in the elimination "contests held during the League and Union dancers for two weekends. At the Sessions "jitterbug" danc- ing, the Congo Chain, rhumba and tango will be taught. Bobby Scherger and his orchestra will play for the af- fairs. Miss Pascoe emphasized that tickets will be sold only to couples, and not singly. League Officials Attend Convention In Kansas Dorothy Shipman, '40, League president, Betty Slee, '40, chairman of Judiciary Council, Jean Holland, '39, and Miss Ethel McCormick are attending meetings of the Women's Student Government Association this week at the University of Kansas, Lawrence, Kan. They will participate in discussion groups sponsored by the national or- ganization until Friday. Dames Group Will Give Play IPI ' i l e I~ltee Of Annual Style Show Honored by the Michigan Dames, the Faculty Women's Club of Ann Arbor will be the special guests at a "Do's and Don'ts" program to be giv- en at 8:30 p.m. today in the League. The program, which is to be put on by the Charm Group, will consist of an original play written by Mrs. E. E. Eves, Mrs. P. A. Smits and Mrs. Gard- ner Ackley, chairman of the group.

This program is taking the place of the annual style show usually pre- sented at this time.

Specialmusic will also be presented under the direction of Mrs. Weber, chairman of the music group. This will consist of accompaniment for the models and numbers to be played be- tween acts. After the play, there will be group singing. White pique rickrack edges the neckline and hem of this trim navy dress, in fitted princess style, with flared skirt and puffed sleeves. A navy heart-shaped bonnet with white lining, white pouch purse and gloves and a bouquet of white violets complete the Easter outfit. Newman Dance Is Open To Campus MUSIC CHAIRMEN!
