Benefit Fashion Show
Will Be Given Today
By Women at League
Summer apparel will highlight
a benefit fashion show to be given
at 7:45 p.m. today in the Ball-
room of the League.
Presented by an Ann Arbor dress
shop and sponsored by the Delta
Sigma Delta Wives Auxiliary, the
show will be followed by bridge
playing.
Featured among the summer
fashions will be light weight suits,
soft silk print dresses, cottons,
play clothes and summer formals.
The fashion show is open to the
public and tickets will be available
at the door. Refreshments will also
be served and door prizes will be
given.

or hats, white blouses and navy
skirts, they sang their hearts out
with their Sigma Phi Epsilon ver-
sion of "On Ohio."
FRATERNITIES may work for
weeks on their respective songs
for the Sing, but the sorority
houses are the scenes of frenzied
activity on the big night itself.
For instance, the Alpha Phis
spent the day making blue
headbands and white feathers
to go with the Indian war
whoop they sang and shouted
for Sigma Phi.
Alpha Xi Delta spent their sup-
per hour coordinating the blue
and white balloons with the songs
they wrote for the .third
winners, the Phi Delts.

PHI GAMMA DELTA, who cap-
tured the second place cup, were
ably supported by Sorosis, whc
sported purple and white banners
while wearing out their lungs
screaming for the Figis.
Alpha Epsilon Phi serenaded
the Sigma Chis yesterday to
spur them on. Right in the
m i d d 1 e of the auditorium,
blandly waving their blue and
gold balloons, they, too, col-
lapsed with laughter when the
ever-original Sigs, appeared on
the stage complete with boun-
cing beards and gurgling jugs.
The Phi Psis, according to Al-
pha Gamma Delta, "sing like
Crosby and his brother," even
without the support of cheerlead-
ers Nicki Sotier and Putt An-
derson. With every one dressed in
red and green, the coeds needed no
urging to shout their "sing, sing,
sing" to the fraternity.
The Delta Tris, who supported
the Zeta Psis, almost caused catas-
trophe with their own special be-
guine, written to complement the
fraternity's song, "Begin the Be-
guine."
Last but not least, the black-
faced Alpha Chis, replete with
white gloves and bow ties, staged
their own minstrel show for the
Lambda Chis, who sang a Negro
spiritual.

1319 S. University Tom and Meredith Suckling
By PAT BROWNSON
Many freshmen learn very lit-
tle about the University in two
semesters, but Miss Gigi Marion,
campus reporter for Mademoiselle
magazine, left Ann Arbor yester-
day after only a two-day visit with
a notebook filled with information
about everything from current
Michigan fashions to the local
pubs.
On a three-week tour of colleges
in the midwest, Miss Marion has
visited eight so far, and plans to
look in at three more before re-
turning to New York City Monday.
PURPOSE OF the tour, Miss
Marion said, is to gather back-
ground material for an article slat-
ed to appear in the August "col-
lege issue" of Mademoiselle, and
to learn about new courses, acti-
vities and fashions on campuses
throughout the country.
Miss Marion's stay here in-
cluded a visit to the University
News Service where she obtained
pictcres for a forthcoming ar-
ticle. She interviewed Jim Eber-
sole, director of this year's Un-
ion Opera, for another planned
feature.
Ebersole even escorted her to
one of the most popular downtown
student hangouts where she was
given an opportunity to absorb
some Michigan atmosphere.
* * *
SHE ALSO talked with Associate
Dean Mary C. Bromage and Miss
Ethel A. McCormick, social direc-
tor of the League.
One of the highlights of Miss
Marion's visit was a tea Tues-
day afternoon at the League,
where she met the approximate-
ly 20 members of Mademoiselle's
Tri-Delta Scholarship
Open to Junior Coeds
Delta Delta Delta has just an-1
nounced another $125 scholarship
which they are awarding to anyl
junior woman working towards a
Bachelor's degree at the Univer-
sity.
Affiliated or unaffiliated women
may apply who have maintained
at least a 2.81 average and are in
financial need.
Application blanks may be at--
tained from the Office of the Dean
of Women. They should be return-
ed by Monday accompanied by
three letters of recommendation.
The $125 award is to be used
next fall, during the student's sen-
ior year.
Delta Delta Delta offered a sim-
ilar scholarship several months
ago, which was awarded to Ann
Flitcraft.

The ROYAL
COMPANION
College Board from the Univer-
sity.
The 20 winners of guest editor-
ships, out of approximately 800
contestants on the College Board
throughout the country, will be
announced by the publication later
this month. These women will help
prepare the August issue of the
magazine while spending the
month of June in New York.
WHEN MISS MARION is not
on one of the four or five tours of
the country she makes each year,
she is busily doing research and
writing articles for Mademoiselle.
A graduate of Stanford Uni-
versity, Miss Marion worked on
the New York Daily News before
joining the staff of Mademoi-
selle.
In her college days she worked
on the campus humor magazine.
Her aim upon graduation was for
some type of newspaper work, Miss
Marion said, but this soon was
channeled into the specialized
field of fashion reporting.
* * *
"WOMEN WHO plan to start at
the top level by getting a job on a
New York City newspaper will be
very disappointed," Miss Marion
said.
She advised them to get local
experience before trying to break
into big city radio and journa-
lism work. New York jobs in
these fields are almost impos-
sible for a novice to obtain, she
said,.
In comparing opportunities for
men, however, women have a defi-
nite edge, she added. Women may
enter specialized fields of news-
paper and magazine work, while
men must compete for the broad
expanse of general reportorial
jobs.
POSITIONS IN specialized de-
partments of Sunday newspaper
sections are much easier to obtain
because of the reduced competi-
tion, Miss Marion stated.
Miss Marion narrowly escaped
learning about campus tradition
the hard way. She innocently
walked through the "forbidden
portals" of the Union. Fortunately
a friend told her about the "sac-
redness" of the front door before
she was subjected to the indignity
of forcible ejection.
