Only a few actual chemise or sack dresses were to be found at the annual spring style shows of Medford Jun ior Service league last week, but they excited more com ment than anything else. Capacity audiences attend ed all three performances. Luncheon showings climax ed the annual benefit. Funds earned by the project will be used to support the league's kindergarten for hard-of-hear-ing children. Decorations were appropri ate to the valentine season. I Two huge decorative "cages" held artificial birds and the walls were covered with sim ulated gift boxes covered with foil in various rich col- ! ors and bearing the names of firms assisting with the show. Favors for the guests were at each plate. Mrs. C. B. Collins and Mrs. J. S. Cummins provided com mentary, alternating at the microphone for each show, and Abbey Green was at the organ. Members and their 'daugh ters were the models. Mem bers modeling were Mrs. Bil ly Blackstone, Mrs. Jack A. Edson, Mrs. David Holmes, Mrs. Lon Skinner, Mrs. George Lewis, Mrs. Richard Hensley, Mrs. Walter Graff, Mrs. Robert R. Turner, Ash land, Mrs. Jonathan Middle ton and Mrs. Gordon Hudson. Daughters modeling were the Misses Marta and Midi Luth er, Susan Graff, Susan Bak er, Diane Lewis, Tanya and Vicky Enders and Barbara Whalin. . A unique feature of the show this year was the fact that well known business and professional men chose the clothing. Listed on the pro gram as "fashion consultants" were Floyd Baker, Vinson Vaughan, James Dunlevy, Fred Spiegelberg, J. P. Tob in, Philip Lowery, Robert Taylor, Russell Jamison, John Snider, and James Ro wan. During intermission for all three shows Mrs. Collins took a microphone into the aud ience to introduce certain guests and ask for comments on spring fashions. Surpris ingly it turned out that many women said they did not care for the new chemise dresses, or that their husbands d i s liked them, but when men were questioned Friday night they reversed the trend and declared themselves in favor of the fashion. - Mrs. Blackstone modeled a navy blue chemise dress made with a deeply-bloused double back, wearing with it a blue and white cloche reminiscent of the '20s. Another chemise was modeled by Mrs. Holmes, this being of orange ice raw silk with which she wore a multiple-strand necklace of beads which hung almost to the bottom of the short skirt. As usual, some dresses and suits were received with special favor. Mrs. Middleton modeled a dress of floral silk in the new "hot" orange col ors which brought comment and Mrs. Hudson received much applause when she ap peared wearing a rose pink suit with jacket ties which ended in froths of pink fur. Clothing was supplied by Pick's, Mann's, Leon's, Rath's, Jean Hart, Frances Furs, Bur- elson's, Town and Country and Hadley's stores. 4 Zonta Announces Coming Events Plans for the annual treas ury dinner to be given by Medford Zonta club and for the Woman of the Year ban quet were included in the business meeting of the local group at a Thursday lunch eon.
