Bryn Mawr Girls Take Spinach With Their Tea, Say It’s Quite the Thing At Wellesley Cyclists Wear Ear Muffs and Yale Men Roll Their Trousers, Vacationing Students Report. BY BEATRICE BURG AN Society fditor If you see a bright-eyed, ruddy-cheeked, collegiate-looking young woman rating spinach with her tea, take notice—it's sure to be a Bryn Mawr College undergraduate. If yob overhear a young man ordering ‘ hot'’ Boston brown bread and baked beans, we suggest he's a student from Wesleyan University, Middletown, Conn. If you observe a young woman, tramping through the snow in anklets but with no hose, upon inquiring you 11 probably find she's a Western College student on vacation.
If you are bewildered by the sight of a young man attired in a plaid coat, brown vest and gray trousers with cuffs rolled above his ankles, be assured he isn’t at the rope's end sartorially. He’s up-to-the-minute according to the Yale and Harvard fashion standard. College students on vacation from points east, south, north and west bring back their respective school’s eccentricities. Some times they startle their elders with their unusual food requests and their newly acquired wardrobes. Jane Rauch, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Rauch, has returned from Wellesley College for the holidays and she talks about Vitamin-D milk, which is a prescribed addition to meals in eastern colleges. Cyclists Wear Ear Muffs She says that the girls who ride bicycles protect
Miss Burgan
themselves from rigorous winter weather by wearing ear muffs. Ski suits which the girls wear on week-end skiing trips into the White Mountains serve double duty; they also are popular costumes to wear to and from classes. Mi s Rauch’s sister, Ann, student at Bryn Mawr, told us about the
amazing popularity of spinach with tea. “Bryn Mawr is very English in its customs, and every one must have tea in the afternoon,” she remarks. “If we don't go to the village for tea and spinach, we have our refreshments in our rooms.” Bryn Mawr girls favor the gaycolored Scotch and Alpine hats with long feathers cocked at a jaunty angle. They warm their fingers in bright colored woolen mittens. “Vassar Devil” Popular Near the Vassar College campus, eating houses cater to the college girls’ taste lor the dainty known as “Vassar devil.” It’s a concoction made of chocolate cake, ice cream, chocolate sauce and whipped cream, Miss Joan Aufderheide, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Rudolph Aufderheide, explains. Vassar girls wear ski suits to classes, too. Henry Fauvre, Wesleyan University vacationing student, prefers Boston brown bread hot in the fashion of his school. • “Every Saturday night, hot brown bread and baked beans are on our menu,” he said. “We don’t set many fashion precedents, but we do gain fame for our singing. Wesleyan is known as the singing college, for we have won national awards in competition.” Sing on College Steps Every Sunday morning after church the boys gather on the college steps and sing their unusually varied campus song repertoire. These song-fests are much a part of the campus life, remembered sentimentally by alumni. When several of Mr. Fauvre’s classmates attending the Student Volunteer Movement convention here were entertained last night at the home of Frederick Leete, an alumnus, the boys joined together to sing their college songs. Mr. Leete has Edgar Singer, Binghamton, N. Y.; Waldo Beach, New Haven, Conn., and Elliot Wingert, New Jersey, as his house guests. Richard Petherbridge and Edgar See, both of South Orange, N. J„ are being entertained at Joel Hadley’s home. Visit Mr. Fauvre Robert Craig and Walter Bennett, both of Long Island, N. Y.; Robert Shaw, Wellesley, Mass., and Daniel Brewster, Old Phaeleron, Greece, are visiting Mr. Fauvre. With othor alumni, Frank Wade and Martin Carpenter, they had dinner together Sunday noon at the Indianapolis Athletic Club. Prudence Ann Brown, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Eugene Brown, is president of Western College freshmen, all of whom wear anklets, Rebecca Prescott, an upperclassman on vacation, says. Other Western students are Betty Ann Ritchie, Dorothy Lowrer, Dorothy Aldag and Jane Wynne. Joseph Myers, who attends Yale University with his brother. Walter Myers Jr., explains that his classmates roll their trousers two or three inches above their ankles and wear white oxfords all winter. “We let them get dirty, too,” he added. “Our shirts are striped—not so awfully, but enough; we wear slacks and soft-collar shirts.” Cars Now Permitted Yale has followed Harvard’s example by permitting students to drive cars. “There aren't so many yet.” young Myers said. “Dartmouth College is a good place to wear out your old clothes,” Rodney Albright, son of Mr. and Mrs. Chester Albright, explains. “We wear sweaters without shirts! high-top boots and, during winter months when snow is heavy, galoshes.” When vacationing students return to Dartmouth, they are to begin preparations for the winter carnival Feb. 8 and 9. A comic opera is to be given in addition to winter sports—skiing, tobogganing and ice skating. William McMurtrie, Edwin Belknap. Tom Mumford and Foster Clippinger are other local boys to take part. ATTORNEY SPEAKS TO ARTS SECTION Martin Hugg, locai attorney, addressed members of the arts section. American Association of University Women, at 10 today in Rauh Library.

Weddings, Horse Shows and Plays Highlight Social Calendar for ’35
Looking back on the social scene of 1935, cultural and sports events appear to have had as important a place in the lives of men and women as the more superficial pleasures of dancing, wining and dining. The Orchard School Parents’ Club brought two entertainments —the Princeton Triangle Club show 7, "Stags at Bay,” in January, and Alexander Woollcott in a lecture in March. The club thereby earned enough money to assure the school construction of its Playhouse. In January the Junior League brought the late Will Rogers to the Armory, v/here he entertained hundreds. His visit to James Whitcomb Riley Hospital is a lasting memory to the children he greeted. During the same month the Indac Juniors w 7 ere organized at the Indianapolis Athletic Club and since then, the young members have enjoyed skating, bowling and swimming parties, and dances. During the last month a similar group has been formed at the Columbia Club, known as the Junior Columbians. Marionette Shows Popular In February the first of a series of marionette shows at the John Herron Art Institute was presented by the Junior League arts and interests committee to educate children in foreign arts. Booth Tarkington sponsored the first, “The Great Bell,” adapted by Mrs. Robert C. Winslow/. So successful have the shows been that the league expects to enter a marionette exhibit at a league national meeting. The Children’s Museum brought the Old Globe Theater players to Caleb Alills Hall to present a series of Shakesperean plays in March. During the same month three of the largest dances of the season w 7 ere given. The Sunnyside Guild ball, held annually to raise funds for the Sunnyside sanatorium, was on Alarch 1 at the Indiana ballroom; the Christamore Aid Society’s unique yacht dance w 7 as held the following night in the Columbia Club. The Indiana Saddle Horse Association’s wild oats ball w 7 as in the Columbia Club ballroom on Alarch 39. Meredith Nicholson in City Alarch also saw the return cf Meredith Nicholson for a brief rest from his diplomatic duties in Paraguay before taking over his new duties in Venezuela. Caroline Aliller, author of “Lamb in His Bosom,” was brought here in April by Theta Sigma Phi Alumnae. St. Vincent Guild’s supper dance w 7 as the outstanding benefit party of the month. The Saddle Horse Association earned itself more praise for achievements in Alay when officers presented the American Olympic equestrian teams in spectacular trials in the Fairground Coliseum. The Park School Alothers’ Club's greatest undertaking was its sponsorship of a garden tour on Alay 11 and 12 through the gardens of 10 local estates. The international ball of the Civic Theater on Alay 18 was one of the most colorful costume parties of the year. Yacht Club Races July 4 Equestrians had their attention attracted in June by the anr al Arlington horse show at Robert H. Brown's stables and by the supper dance dedicating the Saddle Horse Association's clubrooms in the Lincoln. Sports events in July, which attracted local and state enthusiasts, were the Alaxinkuckee Yacht Club races July 4 at Culver and Joyce Wethered's golf exhibition at Highland Golf and Country Club on July 16. Local golfers welcomed back Miss Elizabeth Abbott, Los Angeles, former local golf star, who paired against the English champion. One of the traditional parties, which adds prestige to local society, is the Traders Point Hunt’s annual riding and driving party. This year’s party, for the community land owners who make possible the hunt's runs by permitting paneling of their property, was held late in September. Horsemen’s enthusiasm was whetted again by the Saddle Horse Asso-
P. Robinson, formerly of the fort, and now of New York. Other guests are to be Mrs. Panels Hall, daughter of the Robinson's, and Lieut. Hall; Maj. and Mrs. W. K. Wheeler, Maj. and Mrs. W. H. Craig, Maj. and Mrs. R. L. Cudlipp. Maj. and Mrs. L. P. Stewart, and Lieut, and Mrs. R. c. Bower. Col. and Mrs. Clifford Bluemel also are to entertain friends at dinner.

ciation’s annual roundup on Oct. 13 at Gregg farm. Proceeds from St. Margaret’s Guild dance Dec. 7 were used for the guild's work in the City Hospital occupational therapy department. During the Christmas holidays with the numerous college set teas, suppers and dances, the club dances and another Princeton Triangle Club show, “What a Relief,” Miss Janet Noyes’ debut on Dec. 27 was the climax and the most lavish party in the city for many seasons. At frequent intervals during the year, the Players and Dramatic Clubs, the Propylaeum, the Lambs Club, Civic and Children’s Theaters and numerous literary and cultural clubs have offered entertainments, which have provided balance, enlightenment and variety for moments of recreation. Prominent Weddings Recalled Highlighting a score of days on the 1935 calendar were the weddings of socially prominent principals. Marriage vows were exchanged by Aliss Cecily Fletcher, daughter of Air. and Airs. Matthews Fletcher, and Paul Johnson De Vault in January at All Saints Cathedral. Also married in the same month were Miss Alarion Barnard, daughter of Dr. and Airs. Harry E. Barnard, and George Fotheringham, son of Mr. and Airs. William Fotheringham, Boston. The marriage of Miss Frances Reed, daughter of Mr. and Airs. Frank M. Reed, to Hans Georg Boehm, Evanston, 111., and formerly of Offenbach-on-the Main, Germany, was solemnized in February. Following the marriage in April of Miss Betty Lee Burns, daughter of Air. and Mrs. Lee Burns, and Daniel Layman, Los Angeles, the couple left for Los Angeles and their future home in Pasadena. Bishop Joseph Al. Francis read the service at the Burns home. Ruth Dunwoody Is Bride The marriage of Aliss Ruth Dunwoody, daughter of Mr. and Airs. William S. Dunwoody, St. Paul, and William J. Kothe, son of Mrs. Ida Lieber Kothe, was performed the same month. The couple visited Naples, Switzerland and Germany on the wedding trip. Another important wedding in May was that of Aliss Virginia Hubbard, daughter of Airs. Kin Hubbard, and Bernard W. Schotters, son of Mrs. Elizabeth Schotters. One of the loveliest summer weddings was read for Miss Barbara Foltz and Plerbert Rubsamen, New York, in the garden of the home of

Women Play New Role in Jury Duties Home and Social Plans Upset as Names Are Put on List. BY HELEN LINDSAY No longer can the Indianapolis housewife arrange to do her spring house cleaning the third week in May. and know with any certainty that at such time she will be wielding dustmop and broom. That may be the week she will be called to court to pass judgment on a hold-up suspect or to hear evidence in a civil suit. Seven Alarion County women have learned this, as they arrange their program of future activities. One Woman on Grand Jury They are Airs. Elma Hart, 135 E. 36th-si. only woman named for prospective duty on the Alarion County grand jury, and six other women selected for possible petit jury service. Women named petit jury talesmen, who may be called to hear cases tried in Marion County Criminal Court, are Airs. Alary Pavey, 1230 Finley-av; Mrs. Anna J. Tauer, 1116 Villa-av; Airs. Dora O’Neil, 2821 E. New York-st; Nettie R. Harvey, R. R. 7, Box 201; Mary Butterworth, R. R. 16. Box 45, and Airs. Clara Taylor, 320 E. 31st-st. Jury service, until eight months ago almost unknown to local women, has become not only a possibility, but a probability. In the box locked in the, clerk's office in the Alarion County Courthouse, there probably are as many women’s names as there are men’s, Charles R. Ettinger, deputy county clerk, said today. Women Are Efficient In spite of this threat of interference with their home and social lives, women in Alarion County have proved efficient in their new role as jurors, Air. Ettinger says. “In the first place, they are not as stubborn as men, and so they are not as likely to hang a jury,” he says. “Women like to hear evidence, weigh it and turn in a verdict. They are busy persons, and they are anxious to get home to their duties and families. “Another thing, it would be hard for anyone to bribe a woman juror, I believe. A man never could be sure that a woman wouldn’t talk about it to some of her friends, for you know it is hard for a woman to keep a secret.” No “Picking On” Them There is no need for women to conclude jury commissioners are “picking on them” when called lor jury service, for it is a “square and above-board procedure,” according to Air. Ettinger. Women are being selected because jury commissioners want highertype juries, and they believe they will get them by having more women on the lists, he says. “Names for prospective jurors are taken from the tax duplicates,” he explains. “These names are placed in a box, which is kept locked in a safe in the clerk’s office. The box can’t be opened except by the use of all three keys to it. Ralph Edgerton, Republican commissioner, has one key; Theodore Weiss, Democratic commissioner, has another, and the clerk has the third.” When the grand jury candidates

M Y DAY By Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt
WHITE HOUSE, WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. 31. Os necessity the holidays take on some color from the youthful element in the household. Last evening we certainly divided our interests! All during this past autumn our two Harvard boys have been attending a course in sociology given by Prof.
Zimmerman, and one of them has had as an adviser Prof. Boldyreff. Because the course dealt with questions of our own government, and there were conflicting points of view, the boys were anxious to have these gentlemen come down here. So last night they came. • The subject under discussion was the AAA, so Secretary and Mrs. Wallace, and Mr. and Airs. Chester Davis also were asked, together with a large group of young cousins who had very little interest in these—to them—academic questions of government. I provided a movie for the latter's entertainment and when the boys told me they felt the discussion would be of greater interest if there were not too many people there, I attended the movie with the ladies. The movie did not appeal to me. and I kept won-

dering all the time what was going on behind the closed door of the oval room. At 11:30 the movie was over and the young people, with Airs. Wallace and Airs. Davis, decided to go home. The discussion was still going on, so my daughter Anna and I went into my sitting room to talk and await the results. In about half an hour everybody except the President, Secretary Wallace and Air. Davis, burst in upon us. Prof. Zimmerman and I almost started the discussion anew, but I came to the conclusion that it was one of those discussions that are more or less profitless. There are so many things which you do not have to consider if you are developing and studying a theory in a class room. It is useful to deal with theories in developing youthful minds, for later they will deal with facts and profit by what they have learned of other men's thoughts, but it is quite different to be faced with actual situations that have to be met in one way or another in a given period cf time.
Out-of-Town Visitors to Join Merrymakers at Club Frolic
Out-of-town visitors are to be among guests welcoming the New Year tonight at the Merrymakers Club dance in the Woman's Department Club. Miss Nancy Brandon, Batavia, 111., is to attend with her hostess, Aliss Barbara Staele. Aliss Peggy Elliott, Culver, visiting at the John Sloane were selected at 10 Monday, the names were drawn from this box. As each name was called, it was typed bv an employe in the clerk's Office. The list then was turned over to the sheriff's office and jurors were notified of their selection. The same procedure is used in selection of the petit jury. Special venires are called when necessary by the same method. x The recent jury selected for the trial of Forrest Jacoby, Al Head, John Head and Jerry Dukes was taken from two venires, the first of 50 persons, the second of 25. For the first list, names of 22 women and 28 men were drawn. On the second venire, 12 women and 13 men were called. This jury was dismissed when illness of a woman juror’s husband made it impossible for her to serve.
