Festivities Coming Up: Mr. and Mrs. Charles A. Sink are getting prepared to greet "the girls" tomorrow evening at the membership meeting of the Alva Gordon Sink Alumnae Group of the University Alumnae Association. Mr. Sink sports his bright red Hoppi coat, a decorative Japanese number worn in festivals. Volunteering to be Mrs. Sink's "butler" at the membership meeting several years ago, he wore the jacket to amuse her guests, and his appearance at the door has become somewhat of a tradition.
