7- TIlE )1i~i i H IGAN-DAIY , .-- Photography Holds Promise As An Advancing Profession Dressed For Tea ry" A. i A By RHODA LESHINE - Is photography your hobby? ;If your greatest pride is your camera creations that you take with thought to art and originality, then think. about photography as a profession. A Michigan woman is the acknowl- edged leader of the industrial photog- raphy field, for Margaret Bourke- White attended the University in the late twenties. In speaking about the supply and demand of photography, Miss Bourke-White discloses that more advertisers are turning to pho- tographs instead of artists' sketches. or watercolors. Industries Seek Photographers Besides direct advertising in pic- tures, Miss Bourke-White finds that many opportunities for the job-seeker lie in the photographing of industry which is the field in which she, at the age of 35, has made an outstanding reputation. It involves the telling of the story of an industry for the con- sumer. "Many industries," she in- forms, "have conceived the idea of selling their institution to the public in a promotional way rather than ad- Read The Daily Classifieds vertising their product more directly." A metropolitan magazine which ca- ters to the women of college age re- veals that in photography "fashion work is a booming field. If a large magazine or store takes your work, you're made," it encouragingly reports to the gal with a camera eye. Gardens Offer Opportunities Jessie Tarbox Beals, garden pho- tographer from Chicago, states that her specialty field through garden clubs is "opening up new avenues of business to anyone alert enough to go after them." She comments that with all the opportunities at hand, few men or women are specialists in this line. These experts of photography agree that a taste for color, ingenuity, com- position and a certain dramatic sense is essential for success. All advise that rudiments of technique be ob- tained at a school of photography or through a studio apprenticeship. Fin- ancial returns are variable according to the type of work done but oppor- tunity for advancement was stressed. Progress, as Miss Bourke-White says, "depends not only on energy and skill, but also on the amount of business ability the photographer may have." ealler JnJ4er Cap- To College Me From Co-eds.. . There is no typical Michigan man, but here is a generalized composite. He is better dressed than most college men, wears tweeds, to the joy of co-eds. and gabardine pork-pies, to their dismay. This week "The Feather" dedicates itself to a discussion of men's clothes. Comments here included come from every feminine corner of the campus. Although there are a few scowls, it's mostly a mass of com- plinerts which, it must be said, is a bit of a contrast from what men have to say about women's clothes. N) one passed up the chance to laud all-tweed suits, of which there re naVimnv here, nid sport jackets worn with plain trousers got their full share of compliments. Someone came forth with the valuable remark that soft tweeds for tea dancing preserve the schoolgirl complexions much more than do the coarser variety. And just incidentally, pipe smoking looks won- derful with the be-tweeded collegiate. Gabardine suits, especially in brown and grey, win approval. Gabar- dine trousers are, by the way, one of the favorites, for offsetting tweed sport coats. Belted backs don't win the popular vote they once did, and their former popularity goes to center or double vents. Most women prefer the count of three for buttons on jackets, but one person spoke up very strongly for four button coats on tall men. Definitely on top is camel hair. In all three lengths-top coat, medium lengths and sport coAt-it gets the first note of admiration. As all men know, women like covert cloth enough to swipe it from masculine closets for their own wardrobes, but they don't want to take it all for they like to see lots of men's ton coats in that material. Ties are a good thing! That's the opinion of all, with no dissenting vote. Open collars are all right for the summer, but school's in and so are the winter winds. And the calmer the ties, the better, with dark wool plaids among the favorites. A feminine heart revealed itself when one girl said her favorite sight was a blonde man wearing a dark suit with a dark tie. For any type and any occasion, a white shirt is preferred over colors. Now for important incidentals. No "business man's" hats. Al- though practically every vote is cast for hats on campus and for dates, they must be casual, worn straight on the head and pushed back a little. Not so casual, though, that wavy brims or gabardine pork-pies are in the limelight. Moccasins seem more popular than saddles, and black shoes, except for evening wear, get no encouragement. Sporty, casual argyles take first place for socks. About "green" there is a great contro- versy, for some are very enthusiastic while others think it's the last cola a man should wear. So men want women to be neat! Turnabout is fair play, and co-eds ask for the same thing. In spite of informality, well pressed suits are a pleasure to the eye. There's a plea that sweaters be kept for picnics or sports, not for classes, and there's a "nix" on the athlete's love of a Michigan T shirt for campus wear. Neatness shouldn't, however, mean painful exactness. Overly carefully planned outfits, with color accents that too obviously bal- ance off each other, is as taboo as spic-and-span-ness that hints of stoginess. Women, we've heard, by far prefer dressing formally than men- although there is some doubt as to whether the masculine grumbling is all sincere. It shouldn't be, for most think men are at their best in tails. A note to those getting ready for an occasion that shouldn't require tails or to very short men who never like to get into them-women don't at all mind seeing you comfortable in a soft collar with a tux. Chester- fields are a wonderful, but not a necessary addition. Opera hats should be worn only if they look well on the man. Now let's say goodbye to Mr. Michigan Man, as he puts on whatever type of hat he looks best in and walks out of this column for now. ICoffih Capers Will Be Given Friday, Dec. 6 Annual Congressional Dance To Feature Hourly Executions; Decoration Theme To Be Black Executions every hour on the hour will be a feature of "Coffin Capers", the annual Congressional Fling, to be held from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m. Friday, Dec. 6 in the Union Ballroom, Rigor Mortis, '42, ghoulish master of cere- monies for the affair, declared in a seance held yesterday to discuss the decorations for the pathological' party. A frock-coated gentleman will be stationed at the pearly gates which eve'yone must enter, Mortis ex- plained, to utter a curse and a prayer over each gloomy guest. The ball- room will be draped with black and lighted with eerie tapers, added the ghoul, and a large coffin, whose con- tents are to remain a secret until the fateful night, will be placed in the center of the room. "The Ghoulish Glide," a new dance to be introduced by Mortis himself, will be, in his unbiased opinion, a spine-chilling sensation. The Union terrace will be transformed into "Congress' Catacombs" and, accord- ing to Mortis, anyone who enters thereon may abandon hope of ever returning to civilization. Bill Sawyer's orchestra, bullied in- to playing for the fantastic frolic, will be broadcast from midnight to 12:30 a.m. over WJR. Swimming Qala To Add Funds For WAA Pool The swimming pool for women- modern, refreshing, much needed. ind adaptable to many occasions- .s coming nearer to realization as the Women's Athletic Association adds to its funds by selling tickets to the annual Matt Mann Swim Gala next week. 'A knock at the dormitory or fra- ternity door during dinner. and a voung woman enters, pauses to tell you about the opportunity to attend the exhibition while helping to fur- ther plans for the long awaited equip- ment. Every house on campus will be covered by the Association in its endeavor to increase its swimming pool account. With its new plans for enlarged organization of "mixed sports," the WAA is hampered by the lack of facilities for swimming along this line. The Union pool does not have accommodations for dressing rooms for both men and women. Ordinary swimming instructions and clubs are also held back by the limited amount of time allotted to women at both pools on campus. The University women, while agi- tating for a swimming pool, have sponsored Jan Savitt at the swing session last year and Tommy Dorsey the year before in their effort to raise funds. Selling these tickets, therefore, is just one more step for- ward in the continuous drive for the much needed pool. Bedecked in the lates vogue, this model is ready to step out to tea or to any high-spot her date may choose. Notice the sparkling square buttons which contrast against a dark background of sheer material. And three-quarter length sleeves add a chic touch.
