By LYNNE FORD Femininity is back ! Or have you noticed? The girl who went out dancing last year in a covered up, pencil slim, conscientious little din- ner dress, will greet her New Year's Eve beau this year in a purely femi- i nine confection of a dress, even more ' persuasive because of its long ab- sence. Up-to-date gals now realize the potentialities of pink for that, ultra- I feminine, clear eyed healthy took. Also the powers of flattery in a long, I softly, curling hair-do. In perfumes, the intriguing scents desirable only a year ago, are replaced by pretty fragrances. Jewelry is less massive, cosmetic shades more subtle. h It's all rather startling, after the incessant droning of fashion maga- zines advocating simplicity to the point of severity. But this year, fa- shion has an urge to beauty and a reversion to becomingness. Psycho- logically, it is probably woman's in- born desire to flatter man, to please the boys who are already home, and to show her confidence that others will soon be back. But no matter what the reason, this queer phen- omenon called woman has finally realized that she is at her best being f erninine. t Due to the lame response of University coeds desiring to become Orientation Advisors, interviewing for the positions, for March, July, and October will take place after thw Christmas holidays, according to Natalie li'lattern, president of . affl? ciary Council. I .Petitions were returned to, the Undergraduate Office of the League Friday, and an unusually large number were received. Only those coeds who are willing I to gave yap a week's vacation, write letters to their groups, and spend f many hours in meetings where plans, will be made for Orientation were asked to petition. i oHoliday j i ''Celebrations Christmas has come to Michigan coeds ahead of schedule with dinners land special programs at the dorms this week helping to extend the short holiday vacation. i III Stockwell Hall had their annual Christmas dinner yesterday with Mrs. Robert Mercer and Mrs. Mary C. Bromage, both of the Dean of Women's Office, as their guests. A program of carols and the reading of the Christmas story around the lighted tree in Stockwell's spacious lounge followed the dinner. Miss Kaye Keyes, staff member, will di- rect the Stockwell chorus when they carol at University Hospital Thurs- day night. Dean Jeannette Perry was Mosher Hall's guest at their dinner yesterday. After dinner coffee was served in the living room, preceding the pro- gram. Included on the program was a selection by the glee club, a read- ing of the Christmas story, by Serene Sheppard, and a solo, "The Holy Mother" by Virginia Zapf. Christmas carols followed the program, with Mr. Wilborne Hill, Mosher house- man, climaxing the evening by ap- pearing" in his now traditional role of Santa Claus. ! At Geddes House Wednesday, girls were called for by a group of carolers who led them into the dining room for dinner. Gifts, suitable for chil- dren in the hospital, were exchanged by the girls, and will be sent to Uni- versity Hospital. All dormitory stamp represent- atives are asked to pick up their stamps and turn their money in from 3 p. m. to 5 p. m. today in Miss MacCormick's office in the League, according to Claire Macau- ' laey, JGP dormitory chairman. o . ..
