Arabian Party
Takes Place
At Fraternity
Phi Rho Sigmas Add
Chapter to Old Tales
Of Oriental Splendor
A new chapter was added to the
old tales of the Arabian Nights by
the Phi Rho Sigmas Saturday
when they presented their party,
"1000 Second Night."
Amid oriental splendor, tur-
banned, bearded Arabs entered the
Phi Rho Arabia with their harems.
* * *
EACH MAN had to have at least
four dates who were to constitute
his four wives. Upon arrival these
women were escorted to the living
room "harem," where under the
guard of "eunuchs" they awaited
their master's beck and call.
The "harem" presented a pic-
ture out of the Arabian Nights,
complete with bright cushions,
stuffed peacocks and a fountain
shooting water into a small pool.
Across the sandy desert of the
hallway, where camels (on cig-
arette packages) lined the way, the
Arabs and their wives reached the
palmed splendor of the oasis.
Here they were served a "loaf of
bread and a jug of 'wine'." Pine-
apple punch and cocoanut ice
cream, as well as the desert fare of
dates and figs, gave refreshment
to the Arabs and their wives.
Russ Plimmer and his band pro-
vided the musical background for
the oriental scene.

Crime Expert Claims Women
Superior in Investigation Field
By LORRAINE BUTLER The assistant dean, who sta
Calling all suspicious-minded her career in the investiga

Because of their natural curi- field as a secretary to former
osity and suspicious minds, wo- lice commissioner James S.
men are naturals in the field of lan, said, "There's only one ta
private investigation, says Assost- You can't be the flighty type.
ant Dean Emma Predicker of the
New York Institute of Crimino-
logy.
MISS PREDICKER says that
for reasons best known to other
women, feminine investigators do
a more thorough job of snooping.
Only two women have gradu-
ated so far from the Institute
but they have proved that these
beliefs are true.
Miss Predicker teaches both
men and women the finer points
of shadowing and writing up re-
ports describing the scene of the
crime.
A MAN or woman needs three
years of experience before get-
ting licensed as a private investi-
gator, but there are more and
more requests for people to serve
in factories, screening war work-
ers and general plant security
protection.
Miss Predicker and her group
of students are often seen on
complicated shadowing assign-
ments up and down Broadway.
The shadowing expert believes
that women are especially valu-
able for shadowing other women.
* * .
SHE STATED that women of
different types, sizes, shapes and
ages are needed in her field of
work.
If you want somebody to get
acquainted with a man in a
night-club, for instance, you'd
want a sophisticated, good look-
ing girl," Miss Predicker said.
"However sometimes you want
a chubby, plain girl to take a job
in a lunch counter or to hire out
as a maid," she added. V
Pipe cleaners make wonderful
beauty helpers. Hollywood stars
have learned of their usefulness
from Perc Westmore, who has
worked out a number of tricky uses
for these three -for-a-penny
brushes.
For the hair-my lady dampens
the pipe cleaner and winds her
'hair around it, folding the ends
across to hold the curl in place. If
she wears a chignon, she can se-
cure it with a pipe cleaner instead
of a rubber band, and there will be
no danger of snarls.
For the face-she presses on
plenty of powder with clean cot-
ton or a puff. Using a pipe cleaner,
she dusts off excess for a velvety
finish. This is an easy way to get
powder off eye brows and smooth
the hair line.
For the hair brush-she scrubs
between the bristles qiuckly with a
pipe cleaner dipped in suds. After
brushing, dust and loose hairs are
removed from the brush with a
pipe cleaner.
