The annual dance and entertain ment given by the Bridgeport Traffic Council Telephone Enployes' associa- ton was held last evening in Colonial ball room.
 The big event of the affair was a sketch entitled "Prune Center Fol Ges,'' written by Afys V. Mcdonald and directed by c. ID. Ratchelor.

No woman who pretends to be smartly dressed dare neglect the popular overbIouse- For the sep arate skirt, an overblouse of some kind is a necessity. These necessities however, by the choice of dainty fla bricS and distinctive designs may be will De the envy of your friends. The wardrobe which numbers one or more of these unique styles in its collection of blouses is indeed for tunate.
 An interesting feature of all three blouses shown above is that they offer no difficulties in construction The basque blouse on the left of the sketch is especially easily made The back is cut longer than the front, which is simply dtted at the waist line by means of few darts. Notice the treatment of the neck A round neck ds slit down the front and the severad material turned back to form the Iapels. The kmono sleeves will offer no difficulties. This bouse will look we'll made up in taupe-colored taffeta with the bit of embroidery l done in nntkado red. Or with a black satin skirt, the blouse might be black satin trimmed with gold. Or what think you of navy blue taffeta trim med with white leather?
 < For the blouse in the center, how about using green crepe de chine with the embroidery in silver? Two toned ribbon, green and silver l should be used for the gfrdle. Tan

WOMEN WILL
 BE ALTERNATIVES

The names of six women were con sidered by the delegates at large, from which list Spellacy and FitzGer- aid may select their alternates. They are Miss Caroline Ruttz-Rees, Green wich; Mrs. Josephus Whitney, New Haven; Miss Josephine Whitney, New Haven; Mrs. E. L. Newell, Greenwich; 1; Mrs. William T. Hincks, Bridgeport; and Mrs. Roger Sherman Baldwin, Greenwich. No selections were made, but both FftzGerald and Spellacy an- nounced that woman would be their alternates.
 Alexander S. Lynch of West Haven, secretary of the State Central Com mittee, was made secretary of the delegation and E. O. Wagner of Lake, vile was made treasurer. An initial assessment of s25O for the transpor- tauon of each person making the trip was voted. This was considered suf- f1cient to cover the travel fare to San Francisco in three special cars to be chartered on one of the transco9l- tinental trains. Meals on the train wik be extra, and a charge of $10 a day each will be made for rooms at the Plaza Hotel in Frisco, where twenty

reservations have been made for the delegation, for five days beginning June 25.
 It was believed that when all the guests had been invited, the Connecti- No limit was put on the number of guests that may be invited by each delegate and alternate and some of them said that they would be accom- panied by their wives.
 William P. Kirk of Bridgeport, dele
 gate from the Fourth district, indi-
 cated that he would take his family
 along, including a 10 year old boy, who will probably be the youngest Connecticut person ever to attend a national convention. Chairman Cummings explained that, while the national committee given free transportation to the con- vention or free hotel accomm odations, there was a provision to pay a nomi- nal sum-perhaps s10 a day-to a limited number of convention em-
 ployes to be selected from the various
 states.
 Deputy Sheriff Andrew F. Sheehar of Hartford was nominated by Con- gressman LonergAn for sergeant-at-
 arms, which gives him the advantage of the convention pay if he wants 1t It is probable that a few convention clerks will also be appointed by the Connecticut delegation on the same

and brown might also be used effect lively as color. scheme for this blouse.
 The blouse on the right seems to be designed especially for the dainty summer organdie. Cant you see this made up in pale pink organdie with the binding around the neck and the narrow ribbon about the waist in orchid. Of course, to have the tout ensemble as dainty as possible the rest of the trimming must be flet lace. You can see that for yourself. can't you? Both voile or crepe de chine also offer themselves for this development.
 Shall we take a few minutes ito consider the hats? They have fabric hats and every line shows that they belong to the latest mode. The large hat might be made of taffeta and leather and it could be dark blue and white or black and white. But you can make the color scheme match your favorite costume, you know.
 The next hat with the turned-up brim and the tam crown will look we'll in black leather or satin. If you are going to have that green and silver blouse, let the hat be green with a band of silver around the crown.
 The hat to the left, the one for your organdie, blouse, you know, can be made in pink georgette or or gandie.e The flowers should be pink l and orchid and the leaves pale green

Robinson of Hartford will preside at this meeting which will be addressed by several prominent Connecticut men as well as by num- Der of the visiting women. At the close of the rally the Elmer gency Corps will be motored to the station in time for the nid-afternoon New York and Boston expresses on which most of the women are lr~v- ing.
