Miss Betty M. Spears, assistant - supervisor in physical education, attended the tenth annual Wom- en's National Aquatic Forum from Dec. 20 to Jan. 1 in Hollywood, Fla. ALTHOUGH she is now acting as program chairman, Miss Spears; has been elected chairman of the Forum for the years 1952-1954. Approximately 155 women from all over the United States and Canada took part in the ac- tivities which included group and panel discussions, poolside talks, demonstrations and woik- shop sessions. LECTURES by experts in fields such as swimming, diving, syn- chronized swimming, camp- waterfront work and canoeing were also given. Miss Spears cited as noteworthy, a lecture by a man from Egypt who explained the strict water program in his home country. One of the most interesting parts of the Forum, Miss Spears said, was the unusual program on conditioning and exercises for swimming. Another outstanding demon- stration and discussion was given on the modern dance foundation of synchronized swimming: "Swimmers are orphans borrow- ing from modern dance," she said. A great deal of synchronized swimming is done by the Michi- fish, she added. Miss Spears explained that "the Forum is a very interesting project to participate in, but it DONNA MAXWELL Holiday Engagements Told Mr. and Mrs. M. H.

Fashionable length for summer dresses will be thirten or fourteen inches from the floor, or just calf-length. Cottons for 1950 have an air of femininity and are designed to be worn for any occasion. Most startling is the return of sleeveless, basc kless dresses which were popular in 1923. Featuring a high, peter-pan col- lar and full, full skirt this sleeveless fashion is much more elegant than the former vogue. Fbr the opposite extreme, a prominent designerthas created a new narrowed look for resort or town wear.- Shown in washable Irish linen, the dress features a mandarin plunge neckline, very narrow skirt and button accents. WASHABLE plaid gingham is used in a dress for more casual wear. One style shows an apron effect of scallops, accenting a skirt of graceful fullness. Its buttoned bodice with a wide, spread collar is a nice balance for the full skirt. Many summer styles combine such interesting fashion notes as out-size pockets, button de- tail from collar to hemline, and a popcorn-shirred elasticized bodice. One New York designer covers a narrow, camisole-topped sun- dress with a belted Parisian jacket. The jacket features raglan sleeves which will also be popular in summer suits. * * * ANOTHER sun-style features a cap-sleeved blouse that buttons to a tiny round collar and ties at the waist. The blouse is worn over a draped-bodice sundress with a full skirt of unpressed pleats. Most styles are shown in wash- able chambray, broadcloth and linen. Although pastel shades, mostly pink, are most important they are interspersed with colors such as true orange, turquoise and shrimp red. White and off-white are being shown as well as beige with a golden cast.
