Winifred Brown entertained her
club last week. In fact, she did such
a grand job of being hostess that
the girls tried to stay all night. Then
too, they were absorbed in such
conversations as Bills going to the
army, little Mary's new teeth, and
Sam being shipped overseas.
Through all this conversation they
managed to play game and Kath-
crime Smith won a party apron,
Julia Brady won cologne and
Louise Marshall china rolling pin.
In addition to Bernice Solomon.
Karen Aston, Toni Webster, Caro-
line Beck, and Margaret Hunter,
she invited Maribodine Robinson,

PORTRAIT OF A FIRST LADY
The next time that Mrs. Franklin
D. Roosevelt comes to Detroit, this
writer is going TO be at the APPOINT
ed place at least five hours before
the scheduled time. After being
wedged in solid mass Of humanity
for 40 breathtaking minutes, we
managed to get in by a miracle.
However, we feel that it was worth
all the trouble.
To a part of the ten thousand who
did not get in, we might add that
Mrs. Roosevelt was all that we had
anticipated and more charming,
gracious and great lady.
From a fashion standpoint, she
was simply and exquisitely
groomed. Her black broadtail coat
was three-quarter length, with this
she wore a five skin sable scarf
draped becomingly across the shoul-
ders. Her small black beret had a
fine dotted face veil and her dress
was a black sheer crepe, dis
tinguished by black velvet bolero
effect in the back We also noted
that she wore black patent leather
pumps with very comfortable
heel, which is right down our al
leys.

Nazi Forces Preparing
To Evacuate Athens.
Raj Pilots Report
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
ROME, Oct. German forces
were reported preparing to
evacuate Athens today as Brit
ish troops, racing virtually UNI
opposed across the Peloponnesus,
neared the southern entrance to
the Isthmus of Corinth, gateway
to Northern Greece.
Dispatches from the front yes
terday said British troops were ap-
preaching the outskirts of Corinth,
at the base of the narrow isthmus
after Selling the port of Navplion,
and it appeared possible they may
already have entered the city.
Fall of Corinth would seal off the
only overland escape route for any
German troops remaining in the
Peloponnesus and would place the
Allies only As miles from Athens.
1t was believed unlikely, however,
the Germans had left many troops
in Southern Greece.
Reports that the Nazis had begun
evacuating Athens came from Brit
ish fighter plane pilots operating
from Greek bases, who said they
had observed a considerable con-
centration in the port, including
a number of ferry type craft and
several large ships.
British commanders asserted the
Germans were fleeing Greece ''by
land, sea and air." apparently exert
ing all efforts to withdraw before
the onrushing Russian forces, bull
warked by Bulgarian troops and
Yugoslav guerrillas, cut off their
escape routes
Approximately 1000 Greek puppet
troops have been captured in the
Allied drive, along with stores of
Anticipated equipment.
Allied planes continued to pound
enemy airports around Athens and
Salonika over the week end, while
British forces ranged along the
Greek coast, on the alert for any
Nazis attempting to escape by sea.

for the an-out offensive, which
struck toward the sea. His main ad-
vances followed the Siauliai- Memel
railway. His average gains were
better than so miles.
The Germans apparent catastro-
phe was exploited to the utmost. By
splitting the German line Gen. Bag
ramian appeared to have laid bare
the coastal approaches to East Prus-
STA and poised a threat to the large
East Prussian city Of Tilsit.
Reds Reach Tisza River.
Meanwhile, Russian columns
speeding into Southern Hungary ia
two days reached the Tisza River,
last big hurdle before imperiled Blu
dapest, capturing 1000 prisoners. In
the central plains the Red Army was
still few miles short of the river.
(The German high command
said in a broadcast recorded in
London that the Russians had
forced crossing Of the Tisza.
(Another version of the COM
munique, as recorded in New
York, said German and Hun
garian troops were defending
their bridgehead positions" on the
Tisza, apparently meaning that
the Russians had not yet crossed
thes river, but had driven the
Germans back to narrow posi-
tions east Of it,

Belgrade was being evacuated by
the Germans.)
