Louise K. Davis
Studying Designing
AT New York School

NEW YORK, April 9. - Louise
knight Davis, daughter Of Mr..
and Mrs. J. knight Davis of Will
mington, N. c., and graduate of
New Hanover High school, Will
mington and the Woman's college
of the University of North Caro-
lima, Greensboro, is a student at
the Traphagen School of Fashion
in New York, where she is major
ing in costume designing and IL
lustration.
Miss Davis was formerly en-
ployed as secretary to J. B. Hun
tington Of the Wilmington YMCA,
before entering Traphagen.
Miss Davis is enthusiastic over
design competition sponsored
for her school by one Of the ma
tons largest manufacturers, in
order to obtain fresh ideas for the
now widespread vogue Of the use
Of buttons as costume trimming.
In announcing the contest for her
company, Gertrude D. Shaw, gave
a talk on the origin and Develop
ment Of buttons which was Of I'm
usual interest to the many button
collectors who attended as well as
to the young designers. First prize
for the competition is to be a
hundred dollar War Bond, with
other awards Of Bonds Of lesser de-
nominations.
Miss Davis says she has been
greatly inspired by the recent
Chinese goodwill assembly at the
school which will help her to ap-
preciate the exhibit OF Imperial
Chinese robes now on view at the
Metropolitan Museum and which
she is planning to attend. William
Poy Lee, national president OF the
Chinese American Citizens Alliance
and unofficial mayor OF China
town." was the principal speaker.
An authority on Chinese art, he
identified and explained the sig
nificance Of the intricate and
beautiful designs and symbols dec.
Grating a group of magnificent
Chinese robes from the Traphagen
museum collection, which were
modelled by students for the oc-
casion. AS his guest he presented
the prima donna Of New York's
Chinese theater, one of only two
such playhouses in the United
States, Chu Yen Sum, who demon
strated the thrilling and sensa-
tional sword dance in which she
defends herself with two cleaning
blades against eight imaginary
foes
Another popular speaker was
Ray Shaw, the famous sculptress
of hands who made her audience
more hand conscious by her anus
ing but serious discussion OF ges-
lures that betray or charm, the
psychology Of expressive gesture
which she has gained in modelling
the hands Of the great and the
humble. In the coming weeks OF
the school term, Victor Perard,
the well known anatomist and
author of Hands and Their Con-
struction, is to continue the sub
ject and will illustrate with cnaK
drawings the structure Of hands.
