“Writing stories, reading, listening
to the radio, dressing dolls—all things
I like seem to tie up with drama,” ex
plained Frances Ilodgin, dramatic stu
dent, in (explaining her latest creation,
a 21-incli (loll dressed in the manner
of Queen Fiizaheth.
Inspired by Helen Hayes’ perform
ance in “Metoria Kegina,” Frances pro-
ceded to make the costume as a class
pro.i(“ct for drama. “I worked on the
dress every night for a whole month,”
.she declared, “and now that I have
tinished it, I feel lost.”
Hair “Filed I’p”
The dress is of pale blue trimmed
with burgundy velvet and white lace.
Complementary Jewelry consists of a
pearl necklace and head band, which
ornaments a “piled up” hair style. The
doll’s shoes are of the same material
as the dress. The lace shawl and gloves
also add to the regal air of the cos-'
Innie, which is now on display in the
library.
While studying “As You Like It” in
Fngli.sh, Frances dressed a six-inch
doll in the popular mode of the Eliza
bethan era. 'J'he dress was of dull red
satin trimmed with ixairls and earned
her instructor's comniendation.

one to the post office.

Bright-eyed with anticipation, young
Philip snatched the package from the
postman, puzzled over the “To Miss

tied the cord and opened the box. Shy

a length of delicate pale pink silk.
Because of lack of time for practic
