Spring Weather Induces Outdoor Recreation
The morning after the night before is rather sad but memories of the prom will last—anyway. Many picnics are planned, and it is wonderful weather to take walks and sunbaths. There have been a lot of suntans on the campus lately—some from the baseball and tennis games that take up all the spare time now.
Free time is spent lying on blankets in the sun—it is so easy to be lazy in this kind of weather.
Nearly all the Pi Phis emmigrated to the City to see Mary-MeVey get married yesterday morning. They had luncheon together before the reception in the afternoon.

Looks 'Weak and Weary'
Los Angeles, (INS) — Novelist Theodore Dreiser, after being served tea by Mme. Chiang Kai-Shek, declared today:
"I admire Madame Chiang as the greatest woman since Joan of Arc, but right now she looks as if someone should be taking care of her. She looks weak and weary to me."
Dreiser said that his conversation with China's first lady dealt principally with discussions of China, Russia and the United States.
Madame Chiang, apparently recovered from a recent nervous condition, yesterday emerged from her hotel suite for the first time in four days, and took a long sight-seeing drive through Hollywood and Los Angeles.
