ircular Skirts, Taftetu Petticoats Find FaUor-

SCHOOLGIRL dresses are skip
~ ping classes. Circular skirts
and taffeta petticoats are whirl-
ing right into the wardrobe Of
sophisticates. Last seasons debu-
tantes are looking wide-eyed at
tightly fitted bodiceS. Figures,
not arithmetic, are being cor
rected for the coquettish new
fashion.
If you are searching for youth
full clothes, have yourself a fling
in this girlish silhouette and
thank Mainbocher for including
it in his spring collection. and
stores for catching on so quickly.
In the sketch today you see the
head of the class in schoolgirl
fashions. A dull navy crepe dress
with a snugly buttoned bodice
and a gored skirt for flare has
broad shoulders (the tops of the
sleeves are gathered and padded
that diminish the waistline.
There's a neat little collar and
bow tie of white pique and turn
back cuffs to match.
The color note is the red or
green taffeta petticoat with ruffled
hem that is bound to be seen
whenever the wearer sits down or
steps up.
The chum of this dress is just
as schoolgirlish, with a peplum
and a candy stripe taffeta petit
coat for frou frou.
DETTICOATS are part of up-to-
Il date accessory collections, so
that you can rustic a paper-silk
taffeta one in bright color under
your mannish suit. These petit
coats are slim and form fitting at
the top, so that they do not add
unwanted width at the hipline.
Their flare is near the hem, where
double rows of ruff1es kick out the
skirt Of the frock into a bell line.
Watch Tor the lace paper frillS
on petticoats to wear with daytime
and evening dresses. They belong
to the same school of WITNESSES
as Schiaparellis lace paper bou-
quets and buttons, her all-over-
the-face wells on hard felt derbies.
All are new ways to introduce the
feminine touch to otherwise tail
ored costumes.
At the Paris lace ball lace and
tulle petticoats were color notes
of very feminine formulas. One
pale blue tulle petticoat was
matched to a sash, very Empire.
Several chiffon gowns revealed
dust-ruffled tulle petticoats. or
lace petticoats and brassieres.

Toby shook her head. "You

united the silver ribbon, put the
flowers in water. When she raised
the window for the night she
would put the bowl on the win
dow sill and it would be almost
as good as putting the flowers in

Toby brushed vigorously, count
ing the strokes. 'forty-six, forty
seven, forty-eight--" One hundred
strokes on each side was the rule.
Forty mine, fifty, f1fty-one-"
She went on brushing and

helped her with all his nonsense
and gaiety, with his sound advice,
too. She thought, I'm lucky TO
have friend like Bill. There's
nobody else like him."
It was true. There was no one
like Bill. No one Toby had ever
known. Back in her school days
there had been boys who had
taken her to football games, class
parties and movies. She hadn't
cared for any of them in particu-
lar and when she left school with
out graduating she had automa-
tically dropped out of "the crowd"
Toby had been too busy since then
earning a living to think much
about men. The ones she'd met
in the last two years weren't the
sort to inspire romantic thoughts
fresh guys" most of them, and
Toby knew how to deal with them
promptly.
Bill was the only one who was
different. Strangely, she'd never,
for minute. thought of Bill ro-
mantically. If Toby had an ideal
hero, as every girl has somewhere
in the back of her mind, he would
have been, in appearance, COM
bination of half dozen movie
actors and, in character and per-
sonality, a composite of the heroes
of dozen different books she had
read Certainly not at all like
Bill Brandt.
Toby went to bed that night
firmly resolved to be up early
next morning to begin the search
for a iob-a job in a store or run
ming an elevator or operating
switchboard, something she knew
she could do.
She kept the resolution. But it
was Saturday, the poorest day in
the week to look for employment,
and Toby returned to her third
floor effort.
Hopefully she asked If there had
been telephone CALL knew-al-
most before the words we're out
of her mouth-that there had not
been.
CHE had made excuses to Bill
~ the night before, breaking
their usual Saturday night date.
Bill had been too extravagant, as
it was. They had agreed to go for
a walk Sunday afternoon, but Bill
called and said rush job had
come through. He would have to
go to the Office.

Dancing Pirate" is scheduled
for release on April II. Adapated
from the magazine story by
Emma-Lindsay Squier, its plot
has been reconstructed to meet
the needs of the movies.
The original story dealt with
pirate who is an expert wood
carver. He is captured and SEN
fenced to death by hanging.
Awaiting the end, he starts carv-

ter of the towns leading citizen.
She comes to watch him work,
and it isn't long before pirate and
daughter are cooling like love

is a dancer instead of a wood

One Of Ten
Best Of 1885
Production Ran for 212
Performances on
Broadway.

Post Road" highly successful
play by Norma Mitchell and Wilbur
Daniel Steele, is to be presented by
the Civic Theater for week begin
ming March 81, Frederick Burleigh,
director, announced today.
The play was produced last
year on Broadway by Potter 81
Haight at the Masque Theater.
Many Of the summer stock COM
panies along the Eastern coast also
played it last season.
Lucille Watson, Broadway actress
who was seen as Lady Emile in the
movie, THE Bishop Misbehaves, /"
received her Hollywood contract on
the strength of her work in Post
Road" Percy Kilbride and Romano
Calendar also were in the original
cast.
The production was chosen by
many critics as one OF the years 10
best plays. 1t ran for 212 perfC m
ances.
The story concerns members of an
Ola new England family living On
the Boston Post-rd.. They are
amazed at the trend in modern life
which they encounter for the first
time when they open a tourist home.
A group of kidnapers evolve a
novel plan to avoid detection, but

by likening them to music. Black
and-white pictures are like mel
ody, color like a symphony with
its many and complicated Sc
quences.
FINANCING PIRATE" is one of
~ the few movies in which all
of the outdoor action is being
photographed inside. Most of it
occurs in a Spanish town which
has been built on one of the large
United Artists sound stages. Jones
believes he can capture the color
effects better this way.
He prefers a painted sky to the
ever-changing one QUITO doors.
This enables him to catch the
exact blue that he wants in the
heavens.
About IS per cent more lights
are used in taking color film than
black and-white. The old klieg
lamps are used instead of in
candescent bulbs because the lat
ter throw off too yellow a ray.
The colors of the actors cos
tunes are related just as the
colors on the canvas of a painting.
AS result, Jones spends weeks
before starting a picture designing
the costumes he will use.
The day we spoke to him, car
penters were tearing down two
huge floral archways because the
shade of pink in the flowers
wasn't right. Even the animals
used in the picture are dyed to
get the right color effect.

Betty agree on matrimony as do
Gilly and Jessie Ma is happy be-
cause everybody likes her preserves,

Paul Rouse in the role of Gilly.

Chorus, However, Captures
ReCitaPS HonorS.

Although the Maennerchor pre-
sented two Chicago soloists, Eulah
Cornor, contralto, and Margaret
Lagerquist, pianist, at its third con-
cert last night, it was the chorus it
self that captured the honors.
These men sing for the love of
it, and their enjoyment is reflected
in a hearty response to the direc-
ton of their veteran conductor, Karl
Reckzeh. The program was COM
posed of German choral works
which they Go best, sung with spirit,
precision and satisfying contrast Of
dynamics and mood.
Miss Cornor's voice, though light
was for the most part pleasing. She
seemed to experience, however, diff
ficulties which often beset an oper-
attic singer in concert appearance.
Especially in her first group, which
contained an aria from Meyerbeers
lie Prophetic" Lieder by Tschai-
kowsky Brahms, Strauss and Wolf,
her interpretations lacked that
quality of conviction that such mu-
sic demands.
A fleet technique featured Miss
Lagerquist's performance of Sapel-
nikoff's "Elfentanz" and the F.
Major Etude of Chopin. Her per-
Torrance was rather superficial
which brought her playing far be-
low that to which audiences are ac
customed.

The project swung into its second
week of dramatic stock activity last
night before another large and
enthusiastic audience that enjoyed
every moment of the play.
Ancient as it may be, Turn to
the Right" tells sprightly tale
about Joe Bascon, young farm boy
who goes to a big city to make
good, and goes bad. He serves
year in Sing Sing and returns to
his sister, Betty, and his mother.
He arrives home just in time to
hear about Deacon Tillinger who is
threatening to foreclose on Ma
Bascon's large peach orchard and
home. Joe also runs across his
boyhood sweetheart, Elsie, the
Deacons daughter, who lets him
know that if any trouble comes up
she's on his side.
Everything looks sort of blue
when two of Joe's prison pals,
Mugs and Gilly, pop up. They get
their heads together and devise

Mas note is $125. So while the
Deacon is talking with Joe at the
Bascon home, Gilly and Mugs rob
the Deacon's store of that amount.
They return and slip it to Joe, who
gives it to the Deacon. Then
Mugs shoves him out the door,
and somehow gets the money back.
Gilly then returns it to the Dea-
cons safe.
Play Goes On
This might have been the end of
the play, but the authors further
complicate matters with the arrival
of a detective. He knows Mugs
and Gilly, who have fallen in love
with Betty and Jessie Strong, a
neighbor girls.
Joe solves the problem of the
large peach crop by making it al

Nine Against, But Unit Rule
Put into Effect To Bind
Entire Group

Philadelphia, June 2.-(AP)-North
Cardinals delegation to the Democra-
tic National Convention voted today
to cast it's 26 votes for abrogation of
the rule requiring a two-thirds con-
vention vote to nominate candidates.
Nine delegates voted against the
proposal and the delegation invoked
the unit rule and all the votes will be
cast for abrogation.
Representative Robert L. Doughton,
of Laurel Springs, made the motion
for abrogation. Julian Price, of
Greensboro, proxy for National Com
mitteeman c. l.. Shipping, moved for
no change.
There was little discussion as Gov
ernor j. c. B. Ehringhaus, chairman
of the delegation, called for a vote on
the proposals.
Among those voting for abrogation
were Doughton, Ehringhaus, Lieute-
nant Governor A. H. Graham and j.
w. Winborne, of Marion, chairman Of
the States executive committee.
Senator Robert r. Reynolds voted
with Price against lifting the rule.
Luke Lamb, Wilson, delegate from
