Players’ Coiffures Pleasing! Hair Dresses at Club Show Turn Attention From Gowns. BY BEATRICE BIRGAN Sdflflr Editor MRS. DONALD MATTISON’S Grecian coiffure at the Players’ Club performances Saturday convinced us that the unusual hairdresses sponsored by fashion magazines can be copied with success. 1 Flat curls were rolled back like sculptured ringlets off her forehead, and on each side a wine-colored flower with silver leaves held the hair in place. The curled effect continued around the sides over her ears and in back. With the exception of the frame of curls, her blond j hair was unwaved. The coiffure turned our attention from gowns to hairdresscs. Mrs. Ralph Liebcr, appearing as “Ossie,” invited admiration for her American Beauty velvet gown, which flowed in graceful folds. Triangular cutouts forming the decolletage caught attention. Mrs. Liebcr's bobbed hair was sleek and becomingly waved. A mass of flowers harmonizing with the gown almost covered one side of the curls. In the audience. Miss Brownie Miskimen's redd*sh blond bobbed hair was fluffed out youthfully below two eggshell feather quills, meeting at the back Quainmess.was the effect achieved by the braid circling Mrs. G. B. Jackson's blond hair. Geranium shaded flowers nestled in the ruffles standing out about the neckline of the gray chiffon gown. a is it While Mr. and Mrs. William Ray Adams attended the Players’ two playlets, their daughter, Miss Jane Adams, was enjoying the Tudor Hall Masquers’ Club and the Park School Wishbone Club's joint presentation at Tudor auditorium. Muss Adams was hostess at dinner to some of her friends, including Misses Judv Preston, Claire Patten, Nancy Campbell and Patricia Eaglesfield; Arthur Lathrop, Sam Miller, Jack Fisher, William Fenstermaker and Robert Stcidel, lowa City, la., a Culver cadet. a a a Mrs. Vladimir Bakaleinkoff, Cin- | cinnati, came to hear Nathan Milstein, vi linist, presented yesterday at Englis.i's by Mrs. Nancy Martens. Mrs. Bakaleinkoff was here recently when her husband was guest conductor of the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra’s last concert. Mrs. Bakaleinkoff entertained Mr. Milstein at her home when he appeared in Cincinnati. She was accompanied here by Mrs. Eugene Goossens, wife of the Cincinnati Svmphony Orchestra's director, and M.

MY DAY By Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt
HOUSE, WASHINGTON.—This spring weather down here is certainly bad for one’s good resolutions. In the first place, 1 ride every morning, which takes an hour and a half out of my time, and then I wonder why I have to sit up a good part of the night to finish my mail. 1 entirely forget that if I had not taken an hour and a half out of the morning. I would have finished my work during the day. But it is w’orth the loss of sleep to get out and have some exercise again. It was so lovely Saturday that I took my car. and a friend of mine whose birthday it was. and went out to the Toll House Tavern for luncheon. Nobody paid any attention to me as I went in. But just as we sat down someone evidently recognized me and for one horrible moment there was a decided hush all over the room. I looked down at my plate and was very busy taking my coat off. After a few moments’ conversation was resumed, and my own sense of being the object of a certain amount of attention was relieved. After lunch we drove around over some rather unfreouented roads and came back to the White House 15 minutes later to greet some friends for tea. Mrs. Louise Lazel of Colorado brought her beautiful Snowden setter to pay a call. She has wanted to us two of her dogs for a long time, but I have told her I can not take the responsibility until I am back in my own home, where I really have time to look after dogs. It isn’t fair to them to try to train them here. We were about 10 at tea. Later I had an interesting conversation with Sir Arthur Willert, who is staying here after a lecture tour through the country. My husband and Sir Arthur went off to the White House correspondents’ dinner. The other house guests and I had a peaceful meal at the White House, after which I ivorked most of the evening. This morning we rode at 9 and then my husband and I went to the Cathedral for a service, which Bishop Freeman holds once a year for us and as many members of the Cabinet as can go. Some old friends, Mr. and Mrs. Adolph C. Miller, for luncheon with a few other guests, and now in 15 minutes I shall be of to Grand Rapids. (Copyright, 1936. by United Feature Syndicate, Inc.)
