Attractive Linens Are Choice Gifts For Future Bride The first of June is practically here and with it will come many showers and weddings. This natural- ly brings up the problem of what will be a distinctive gift, one that is both appropriate to the type of shower and which will suit the personality of the bride-to-be. If she is fortunate enough to know what type of inter- Ior decoration she will have in her home this is an important factor to consider also. For a miscellaneous shower the range of possible gifts is endless. Gifts for the home are more suitable, if you are not too well acquainted with the engaged woman, than the more personal ones. Linens are among the finest pos- sible gifts and both the price range and the possibilities for selection offer a wide field for choice. Bath towels with matching cloths are bound to warm the heart of any wo- man. They may be obtained in both clear colors and bright woven pat- terns. Deep burgundy with aqua or yellow monogrammed initials makes a wonderful gift that will be remem- bered long after the actual wedding day. Clear white with vivid fish pat- terns or large red and blue anchor- wheel designs make an attractive gift. Table linens for both dress occa- sions and breakfasts or cocktail par- ties also make attractive presents. Bright luncheon cloths with match- ing napkins serve a dual purpose of cocktail napkins and for bridge sets. Dainty linen hand towels make one of the most attractive and prac- tical gifts possible. They make un- usual and lovely packages because of the numerous pastel colors TYPEWRITERS Checks Are Colorful Perky checked gingham lends zestful color to cotton sports cos- tumes designed for action or 'spectating.' The puffed sleeires, round neck, aind full freedom skirt of this bicycling outfit follow the trend towards comfortable charm. The thatching scarf makes un- r'uly hairs _stay "put." .S~,.----- Committeemen Are Announced For Assembly Betty Roberts, '40, Named General Chairman Of Independent Tea Party Betty Roberts, '40, was appointed general chairman of the Indepen- dent Tea, Janet Sibley, '41, general chairman of Assembly Fortnight, and Frances Nevin, '41, general chairman of the Information Booth, Mary Frances Reek, '40, president of As- sembly, announced yesterday.

Moping On The Mall By Meandering Minnie "Fan mah brow!" Muggy weather's here again which means we chums sit under the trees and study or else we just sit under the trees. Rumor has it that sun bathing is the pastime of the hour for those who would have that "early Florida" look. ' . Best place to "meandering" yesterday was Michigamua - initiation. Bettie Schuele and Betty Myer seemed to think it was a good idea for a moment's pause. Then we saw Chuck Clark, Dotty Boyer, and Max Warsaw in a chatty, little group while waiting for the ceremonies to start. Michigan Aft rac s ACrowd Eleanor Smith whizzed by, and Barb Bradfield and Herb Gardner had. a choice spot 'neath the library window. Jean Rheinfrank chose the steps "the better to see, my dear," while Ed Christiansen and Elsie Courtney were, more or less ignoring the "goings on" at least until things began to really happen. Not to mention the center of interest--the initiates. That was quite a charming blue and white striped shirt Tom Adams was wearing. Dye Hogan's plenty dangerous with a pail of water. Don Treadwell and Phil Westbrook seemed to enjoy the afternoon sun-warhoops and yowhoos-the active's are arriving-that's initiation! People are going in for outdoor sports more than ever. (Or does that have a double meaning?) Anyway we saw Jane Brichan and Leona Gallow on the bicycle hike sponsored by the Outdoors Sports Club Monday. Tennis is nearing the finals in tournament play. Jean Johnson, Mar- garet Cotton, Dorothy Maul, Megan Smith, and Ella Ford are vying for honors in the singles while Lou Carpenter and Dick Knowe, Charlotte Brown and Sam Rotberg, and Dick Trainer and Alberta Royal are competing for the doubles crown.
