JFROLICKING grandmothers will sing and dance at 7:30 p. m. next Friday in the YMCA. And they'll have an audience for their performances, too. This talent exhibition is being done-by members

of the Grandmothers Club, Highlighting the show will be such numbers as the chorus drill team, the minuet and the harmonizers. Grannies are hecoming rivals for the younger set these days. ou 4 & A IF YOU WANT TO LOOK at the brighter side of things, the Cornell Glee Club, which gave a concert this week in Caleb Mills Hall, added its bit of wisdom. In a discussion of evil, one of the Cornell club alumnae sald, “There may be evil existing in this city, but, after all, evil spelled backward is live.” That's life, . ~ ~ » POSSESSING AN EYE for beauty is a claim made by John Barney, city controller. And Mr. Barney proved this at a recent. reception for Joan Taylor and Alan Young. Subbing while Mayor Clark is away, the ‘“beauty-lover” was introduced to the Hollywood stars when they arrived here, with purpose of welcoming them to the city. Somewhere, he heard a volce say, “This 1s Alan Young and Miss Joan Taylor.” With his eyes on the female star, he grabbed the hand of the publicity agent, saying, “I'm happy to know you, Mr. Young.” After all, Miss Taylor is

” A NEW MOVEMENT seems to have hit Indianapolis. And it's quite continental too. For the most part, it's directed toward Europe. Mr. and Mrs. P. H. Logan are members who will be Germany-bound next month, Crossing the Atlantic on the Stockholm will be Mrs. Lorena H. Zimmer. The Norman Metzgers are also making preparations now for their jaunt across the ocean. It's a small world, These trips prove fit. : ” # . A BENEFIT FOR self-bene-fit sounds strange but that's what the Civic Theater is having Sunday night. Members will give a backstage vaudeville show and hold a sale. And this is for members only. ” Ld » DON'T BE SURPRISED if you hear of a Lonely Hearts Club for Husbands being born. After the last few weeks of lonely Saturday nights for a group of women while hubbies attended the basketball tournament, Mrs, Elsie Sanders came up with an idea. In order to repay the men for negligence, the wives are holding what they call “punishment week-end.” Seven in all, they will drive to Chicago tonight and return Sunday. But that’s not all. This thing will be repeated for two more weeks with Dayton and Cincinnati as destinations. It's one way to see the world.

Sewing Contestants Are Busy

EGISTRATION blanks have been pouring in to The Times for the Na-

tional Sewing Contest and the telephones have been busy with those calling for special advice, There seems to be some confusion concerning the Glamour Clothing Group. In order to clarify this, we repeat that this group is open to seamstresses of all ages. This category Is designated for evening clothes,

lounging clothes, negligee ensembles and beachwear.

Clothing made on standard pattern lines or according to an original design may be entered in this group . . . just so long as they're glamorous, And this Is very important, so please remember. Slips, petticoats (pretty as they surely are), separate blouses or foundation garments which always seem to be entered in this group are not eligible. » » n THIS IS THE FIFTH year for the contest sponsored by The Times in co-operation with the Nationa} Needlecraft Bureau. Garments will be classified according to the registration blanks and local winners will be announced in each of the eight categories soon after the closing date. First prize winners will receive $50 each. Second prize winners will receive $20 each. First prize winners will then be forwarded to New York to compete in the national contest. Winners in the national final contest will receive $100 each in cash plus an all-ex-pense paid trip to New York.

RULES and regulations are the same this year as they were last year except for the Senior Standard Pattern Group for entrants over 18 years of age. This group has been broken down into three categories—a wool coat or suit, a tailored dress of wool, linen or linenweave fabric, and an afternoon dress of silk, rayon or dressy cotton. All except winning entries will be returned at the end of the local contest. Winning garments sent to New York, of course, - will not be returned until after the national contest.

MOLDED SUIT—Nipped waist, curved hips, knife-pleated skirt give new molded silhouet to suit for $35 at Block's.

Suit Accentuates Curves Where Fashion Decrees

By BETTY LOCHER Times Fashion Editor

UITS have discreet “underpinnings” this season to

give them shape and silhouet.

Molded bodice lines

and curved hip lines are accentuated with clever cutting

and interlinings.

A DINNER guest asks for one of your favorite recipes after complimenting you

highly on the dish.

WRONG: Stall her off by saying you couldn’t tell anyone else just how to make it, since you guess at the ingredients, etc. RIGHT: Be truly hospitable by sharing the recipe with your guest. 3 ” ” -

YOU take a gift to the guest of honor at a party, because you happen to know it is her birthday—but don’t know whether or not others are taking gifts. WRONG: Make no attempt to be unobtrusive about presenting the gift, RIGHT: Give it to her in such a way that if others have not brought gifts, she can thank you and put it aside to open when the other guests have gone,

. All expensive suits have these “props” to flatter your figure, but when you find a suit at $35 with this kind of detail, it's news, Just such a suit has been found for you in Block's coat and suit department, second floor. It is photographed above. ” nn ” THE FABRIC LOOKS exactly like a fine ribbed wool, but it is one of the new fineribbed rayon suitings — light weight and crease resistant. The jacket is completely lined. The peplum of the suit is interlined with hair canyas, the same as in expensive suits, to make it curve gracefully over

the hips. The convertible collar {is worn open with pearls at the . neckline, Pointed cuffs are another dressmaker detail of the suit.

The skirt falls into a flutter of knife pleats all around, and they are especially treated to stay in. The entire ensemble looks much more expensive than Its actual price tag. It comes in sizes 10 to 16 in navy, gray or beige.

Cooking = Secrets * Are Out

By JOAN SCHOEMAKER Times Food Editor DOs F

AND DON'TS of rench cookery are given with a British accent at the Cordon Bleu Cooking school sessions each Thursday in Ayres’ Auditorium. The sessions are sponsored by the Indianapolis Smith College Club Mrs. Dione Lucas, who runs the Cordon Bleu Cooking School and Restaurant in New York, gives enough tips to leaver her audience tipsy. Crushing garlic Mrs. Lucas uses a mortar and pestle instead of a commercial garlic press. One or two cloves of garlic are combined with approximately one teagpoon of salt or the amount necessary to season the food being prenared. Crush with the pestle until a smooth paste is achieved.

SHE ALSO USES her mortar and pestle to prepare coarsely cracked black pepper used in some dishes. Using aluminum foil gener ously when covering foods to be baked, she eautions cooks to watch which side they put on the outside. The shiny side out makes foods get hotter. To keep baked goods from sticking, Mrs. Lucas recommends greasing pans with lard and when seasoning both French toast and browned potatoes, be sure to add the salt after the food is browned.

SHE CUTS DOWN cleaning up and dish washing time by always keeping handy both a damp and a dry cloth as well as a small bowl of water, Knifes, small utensils and her wooden chopping board are wiped up as she works, eliminating messy utensils later. One of the secrets of French cooking which she casually included in a side comment concerned preparing vinegar for Hollandaise sauce. For the necessary two ’‘ablespoons she suggested adding finely chopped onion and carrots to four tablespoons vinegar. Boil @he mixture until it measures two tablespoonsful and strain be fore adding to the sauce.

QUESTION: Several months ago I broke my glasses, and have always worn gold frames. However, I got plastic frames after this accident, but about a week later I started. to break out around my eyes and along the side of my nose. Can it be that I am allergic to these plastic frames?

ANSWER: It is true that some people are allergic to some of the chemicals in plastic eye-glass frames. Most people do not have any trouble, of course, but the history and symptoms as given in this letter certainly suggest that plastic frames may be responsible for this skin difficulty around the eyes,

Bra Makers Uplift Voices In Protest

HOLLYWOOD, Mar. 28 —Brassiere makers accused Marlene Dietrich today of

trying to promote a race

of lop-sided women. The. deep-voiced glamour gal announced last week that American females would look better if they didn’t wear bras,’ or, at least “not the pointed bras that make them stick out in front.” ' Marlene figures this country is too bosom-conscious. If it wasn't for those glamorous brassiege ads, she said, “women probably wouldn't wear bras.” A couple of bra companies were shocked right up to their stitched up-lifters. One firm got right on the phone from Chicago. n 2 rr “MISS DIETRICH probably hasn't got any bosom,” sputtered a spokesman, Druscilla Handy, who's a size 38 B.

“We'll send her some bras, |

A woman to be properly groomed looks better in a bra and girdle. Even a woman with a small bust should wear one with built-in cups. Then the boys will whistle at her. “A woman actually looks more pointed when she doesn’t: wear a bra. A bra gives her that rounded, natural look that Miss Diagrich says she likes.” Another firm insisted if a

woman’s bra gives her a pointed podfile, it's the girls’ fault, not the bras. » ” ” “SOME WOMEN IRON their garments for that pointed look,” confided executive N. R. Samuels over the roar of sewing machines at his factory. “Others look pointed because they'ge built that way. During the war girls went for pointed bras—part of the war psychosis. These days bras have rounded

contours. We just follow fashion trends. “If all gals left off bras,”

he added, “we'd get a race of women who would look a little distorted.”
