Crab Racing Among Latest Diversions for Relief of Bridge Playing Monotony Shell-Armored Haters of Water Make Their Indianapolis Debut as Proteges of Mr. and Mrs. Dudley Taylor. BY BEATRICE BCRGAN Timm Woman's Pa** Editor IF you re weary of figuring "possible tricks" and being “dummy,” why not devise or buy some new after-dinner game? New York and Chicago society frequently turns its back on bridge for its at home diversions. Mr. and Mrs. Dudley Taylor. 3541 North Meridian street, have been entertaining their friends with one of the latest games, which is intriguing New York pastimers. It is called Fortuna crab race. You can t play it unless you send to New Ydrk for a family of sand crabs. The idea is to infuriate the crabs by placing them in water, at the foot of a five-alley track, which is designed uphill. The Puerto Rican

crabs are natives of sand; when the barrier is lifted in front of the water troughs, they immediately start in search of sand. The cone shaped shells are painted in various colors. so you can choose your favorite according to color. When the barrier is lifted, the crabs start "tearing” up the gangway. Sometimes they become so furious, they simply draw up into their shell and refuse to move; that makes you the laser if you’ve bet on the balky crab. Occasionally. Mrs. Taylor says, one will race to the top and start down again before the others decide what they will do. The best sport, of course, is provided when they all start together. The gallery remarks sound something like this: "Pinkie, you aren't going back on me?” “Get along here, green crab.” “Hurry up there, you heavy-footed

Miss Bur Ran

redhead .” "Pleadings and coaxings are unavailing.” Mrs. Taylor explains, “unless the crabs have the mind to hurry.” It’s New ‘Shell Game’ The crabs are trirky. The red crab, who won for you last night, will race under false colors tomorrow. Overnight he swaps shells with one of his fellow brabs, and the next day you won’t know one from the other.

Mrs. Taylor keeps the crabs in a tin box filled with sand, where they burrow and eat bits of apple. Mr. and Mrs. Henry B. Steeg and Mr. and Mrs. A. D. Hurst frequently join the Taylors in playing the game. Game which taxes the ingenuity of the hostess is popular in Chicago. It is called “impressions,” and the idea is to devise a set of ‘impressions' so that the guests may guess what the impression is “of.” For iastance, the hostess might say, “furs—red roses—runs —hoarse.” But that is too obvious—a football game, of course. Or again, “yip, yip, horn, dust, red. crash.” The answer to that is the Traders Point hunt. Bac-rac Popular Bac-rac won popularity last season, and is being revived now that winter calls for indoor recreations. A group played the game the other night at the home of Mr. and Mrs. William Garstang. Mrs. Kurt Pantzer describes bacrac as a combination of poker and “Michigan.” An extra hand is dealt as in "Michigan,” and the dealer has the privilege of selling it or exchanging his own for it. Players first bid on their hands according to poker rules; after the bidding is completed the players declare their hands without exposing them to the board. The poker winner collects the pot, and the game continues with playing of the same hands according to Michigan rules. For this period of the game a special board is used. Others who find the game a diverting pastime are obert Ferriday, Mr. and Mrs. Norman Keevers and Bob Hollingsworth. BETH-EL GROUTS ANNOUNCE PARTY Members of Beth-El Temple.

Costumes by Kiviette, Designer for Actresses, Offered at Block Store Gowns Worn in ‘Of Thee I Sing’ and Other Shows Brought Demand From Women in General. BY HELEN LINDSAY THE costumes designed for the actresses in “Os Thee I Sing," and “Strike Me Pink," caught the attention of American women. They clamored for Kiviette, the young designer who created the stage gowns, to turn her attention to clothes for everyday wear. In answer to this demand, Kiviette produced some of the most striking new fashions. Kiviette has repeated her designing success on the stage in the costumes seen in "Let 'Em Eat Cake." the new Kaufman-Ryskind-Kershwin comedy operetta, which opened a few weeks ago in the Imperial

theater in New York. Fashion authorities are now prophesying that there will be much talk of “Let 'Em Eat Cake” blue, since this color was used in developing the theme of the new play. Blue skirts, blue blouses and blue uniforms predominate in the costuming of the play. The use of varying shades of blue has shown the way one color can be used to assert itself in an entire series of costumes. In most of the costumes, a medium blue has been used which is expected to be popular in next season's colors, as related to several other colors. According to the fall season color card, it is similar to Alpine blue, with a bit more life and lavender tint. Lois Moran, playing the part of the president's wife in the play, is seen in two and three-piece costumes, in which the blue is combined with light gray. The color is even important to the plot, since blue crepe blouses trimmed with metal buttons are shown in the play to revive the spirits of the president, and

made possible a gay and attractive revolution. Kiviette's costumes for the play show interesting fashion trends. She has designed for Miss Moran a silver cloth jacket over a high-necked and long-skirted crepe gown. She has brought dark and bright shades together in interesting manner in many of the costumes. • b a a bob Black and Pink Combined THIS same flare for interesting color combination is seen in costumes designed by Kiviette .and shown in the French salon at the William H. Block Company. The most theatiical of these is a black taffeta dinner dress, in which the air j)f an ingenue has been achieved by the combination of shell pink taffeta. The wide, full skirt is faced at the hem with a wide band of the pink taffeta, which shows when the wearer moves about. Twisted about the neck, which is cut wide at the shoulders, and in a deep V in back, is black and pink taffeta, used as trimming. The tiny sleeves which cover the shoulders, are in reality black taffeta bows, in particularly youthful effect. A pink cameo brooch is pinned at the front of the neck. Color contrast has also been used to advantage in another dress, created by the same designer and shown at Block's. It can be used as a tea gown or dinner gown, and has a long black velvet skirt, with long sleeves of black velvet. The remainder of the blouse is striped velvet, in bright reds and black. B B a B B B Conservative Gowns Available IN more conservative fashion is a dinner dress of black ottoman, cut square in back, and depending on line rather than decoration for its charm. A wide girdle-effect sash drops long on one side. Thrust into this at the waist is a huge rhinestone pin. A matching clip of rhinestones is worn at one side of the neck of the dress. Black also has been used in another dinner dress, made of brocaded moire. This gown is very long in back, and short in front. The deep V of the neck at the back is edged with black velvet ribbon, which ties in a bow with sash ends at the waist line. Fullness in the skirt is achieved with pleated pieces.
