Leslie Marzolf, designer of all stage settings for the famous Kenneth Sawyer Goodman Memorial theater, is in charge of the decorations and stage settings of the pageant that will demon strate much of the charming grotesquerie of foreign carnivals. Masques, costumes and accessories will be of such motif as to mirror faithfully the spirit. of play and naive humor, that draw thousands of tourists annually to continental kirmesses and fetes throughout the Teutonic and Latin countries. Need Twelve Men One of the masques, "The Green Dragon," that is in process of perfection, requires the services of twelve young men to effect a perfect performance. Of this number eleven are concealed in the body of the nragon, some acting as forepaws, oth~rs as hind legs and several others as abdominal and thoracic feet while three are required for the caudal appenda_ge. The dragon snorts fire and is preceded by a young man who performs the Fugitive Fandango as he flees in terror. This dragon ic; not unlike the familiar beast of tradition employed in Chinatown festivities. Mythological accurracy has been insisted upon for detail where legendary or characters or environment is concerned. The Mother Goose feature is a nonsensicality, both mirth provoking and interesting. Patricia Dalton, a juvenile dancer o{ talent and promise, will appear as a divertissement and there will be othe:features of interest. The pageant will move swiftly, and in its latter moments mav be participated in by those of f:hr guests who have come in costume. Any period of costume will be permitted provided canons of good taste are not violated. Mrs. George Rasmussen, 3400 Sheridan road, Chicago, is the first purchaser of a box. Mrs, Frank Lillie, 5801 Kenwood avenue, Chicago, is the first purchaser of tickets and Mrs. Lewis Coburn of the Blackstone hotel the first donor to the fund for which the ball is being held. This fund is spent in assisting worthy and talented and impecunious students to secure their art education. Mrs. Robert P. Lamont, wife of the Secretary of Commerce, and member of the board of trustees of the institute is expected to be a patroness. Mrs. Lamont's daughter, Mrs. Chauncey Belknap, was formerly a student at the institute. + ·
