PREVIEW OF FUTURE:
Fashion World Greets Spring
With Brocades, Stoles, Furs,

Stockwell Will Present Fall Formal Friday
o R,*

Although Ann Arbor has had
two snow falls this season, the
fashion world is already looking
forward to next year and spring.
The feminine silhouette will be-
come firmly established in 1951,
the New York Times predicts in
the Fashions of the Times maga-
zine.
A longer tailored jacket and the
stole worn as part of a suit are
in the fashion forecast.
THE TWO-PIECE suit dress will
replace classic suits for younger
women, and waist length boxy
jackets will be worn over slim
skirts.
Assymetrical drapes and floor-
length overskirts will be featur-
ed this year, and pink will be
the most popular color.

Fur trims are returning to the
fashion picture. White, silver, and
dyed fox will be used to trim eve-
ning formal costumes, and fur
stoles will also be shown.
SOME DINNER DRESS design-
ers have been influenced by ori-
ental style, quality, and character.
Rich colors and brocades from
China, Morocco and Siam will be
prominent. Front and back full-
ness, standing collars and deep
cuffs will contribute smartness.
Sheer fabrics are forecast for
bathing arid play clothes, and
jewels will sparkle on swim suits.
Jersey and organdy will be used
in suits and linen and rayon
crepe will be popular for daytime
dresses.

Coeds To Escort Dates
'Down Memory Lane'
In Century-End Setting
Residents of Stockwell Hall and
their guests will take a stroll
"Down Memory Lane" from 9 p.m.
to midnight Friday when the dor-
mitory presents its fall formal.
With a theme based on the turn
of the century era, the decorations
will depict the courtship of a
couple typical of the naughty, but
nifty, nineties.
Sports, such as tobogganing,
suitable to a winter atmosphere
will be featured in one room, while
swimming and other summer acti-
vities will provide a lighter at-
mosphere for the room in which
the orchestra will be playing.
THE "COURTIN' COUPLE" will
be pictured participating in these
activities via poster board figures
eight or nine feet high.
Providing the musical back-
ground for this jaunt through
a memory maze will be Ted
Smith and his orchestra.
The "Four Horsemen," a barber-
shop quarett, will perform at the
dance during intermission.

WAA Offers
RidingNovelty
Basketball Will Be
Played on Horseback,
"Can you imagine a basketball
game on horseback?"
This novelty is being put, into
effect by the WAA Riding Club.
The feat will take place at 7:30.
p.m. today at the Golfside Stable'sI
indoor rink.
Members planning to attend
this activity will meet at 7:15 p.m.
today at the WAB from where the
group will taxi to the stable.
Manager, Patricia Gullberg,
suggested- that some of the morel
ambitious members might want to
get in a little extra exercise by
biking out.
Other club activities of the
year include drill riding, broom
polo, square dancing (on horse-
back, of course), and a spring
horseshow or rodeo.
Club members, both beginners
and -advanced, receive instruction1

After staring at the same room
furnishings for a full seven weeks,
many coeds have decided that it's
definitely time for a change, small
though it may be.
Disdaining to go only half way,
two room mates have completely
redecorated their entire room. De-
nim is the material chosen and
aqua is the basic color. Aqua den-
im bedspreads, bordered with vari-
colored stripes, cover the Holly-
wood beds.
The two coeds made draperies
of the same aqua, rose and white
striped material, which now
stretch across the double window
in their room.
* * *
A TINY knick-knack shelf was
painted a bright aqua and filled
with minute-sized dull copper
trinkets. Dresser scarves of denim
and two small window plants
complete the room's ensemble.
After viewing her depleted
bank account but still consid-

Coeds Revitalize Drab Rooms
With Denim, Ivy, Fish Netting

ering a change of scene, another
coed bought a trailing ivy plant
which she hung from its gold
pot above her roommate's bed.
Complications arose when the
plant was watered. Three small
holes necessary to attach the
chain to hold up the plant leaked
all over the bedspread below every
time the ivy was watered.
* * *
BELIEVING FIRMLY that it's
the little things that count, anoth-
er student posted a painstakingly
drawn sign above her desk saying,
"Blessed Are They Who Are Pleas-
ant To Live With." In each corner
was sketched tiny flowers in true
"Home Sweet Home" style!
Fish netting, dyed to contrast
with denim bedspreads adorns the
windows of another room. Adding
to the challenge to conventionality
is a long, thin mop-haired doll
which holds the place of honor
in the only overstuffed chair in
the room.
