' AAUWHears Talk On Delinquency The juvenile delinquent was the topic at the American Association of University Women meeting Mon day. The speaker was Barry Levin of the state health department. “The words juvenile delinquent are heard so frequently that many have come to believe that the terms adolescence and juvenile delinquent are synonymous,” was the begin ning of Mr. Levin talk. Later he said in speaking of the development of family tension that in rearing our children, it should be remembered that they have the following needs: someone to show confidence in their abilities; the feeling of belonging; family ex perience; and freedom plus re sponsibility. Levin was introduced by Mrs. Melvin Rotsch, president of the Brazos county mental health so ciety. Charles Johnson was given a combinations birthday and gradua tion party Saturday night.

Accessories Called Props by Designer The new word for accessories is “props.” Claire McCardell coined it for her gay and per sonalized designs in gloves, specs and jewelry. According to Miss McCardell, the attractive woman today uses her little costume ex tras as much for glamour as for practical appliance, and with the effectiveness of an actress employ ing the props of her stage role. Pretty gloves are spanking white cotton, luxurious thin beige suede, or flower-tinted kid accord ing to the effect wanted in the costume. Necklaces are adjusted like a flownr “lei” or looped in long strands to point to the spread of a wide-open neckline or the siren plunge of a deep sophisticat ed V. Eardrops (that’s what Claire McCardell calls her new dangling bead earrings) express your mood as much as match your clothes. Music Is Topic For Discussion At Study Club Mrs. B. A. Hardaway’s kindergarten was the scene of the Child Study club meet ing Tuesday morning. Mrs. Hardaway was assisted by Mrs. Tom Covey, and Mrs. Joyce Ann Khurri. A demonstration of songs was given which pre-school children enjoy. The demonsUation was used as a basis for a talk on the develop ment of music appreciation. Mrs. Hardaway feels that ap preciation for music starts with the lullaby that a mother sings to comfort her child. The next step is noticing rhythm, beating, clap ping, stepping or swinging to it, and fi'om there the child progresses to nursery rhythms repeated over to him. Then comes the little songs said Mrs. Hardaway, With Which chil dren are familiar and which have actions which children can enjoy. Mrs. Hardaway feels that all children can learn to sing if they are started early enough in the home. A short busines meeting was held and plans made for the coming meeting. The April meeting will be in the home of Mrs. Charles La Motte. JggjjjU* ;•* FOR TALENT SHOW—This young lady will be one of the acts on the Intercollegiate Talent show at Guion hall at 8 p. m.

Will Wear French Costumes To add to the gaiety of the oc casion all cafe patrons have been asked to don French attire. Cos tumes needn’t be elaborate, Stax-k announced, although it is rumored that one lady plans to attend dis guised as a French pastry. “A flowing tie, a gay cummer- bound, a beret, sideburns or what ever else you can dream up to give a Parisienrie touch to conventional masculine attire will be acceptable,” Stai’k suggested. “The ladies, bless them, don’t need any advice on how to he chic.” Tickets for Rue Pinalle will go on sale at the main desk of the MSC at 8 a. m. Friday, March 12 and will be available until 2 p. m. Wednesday, March 17 or until the quota is sold. “Judging from the advance in quiries on tickets and the success of last yeai’’s Rue Pinalle, I predict that the affair will be a complete sell-out,” Stark said. “Pati’ons who want to be sui’e of a table will do well to get their reseiwations eax-ly.” Want to travel and study abroad?
