In addition to the 90 columns lining the dance area there will be giant figures of King Tut and a sailing ship as a bandstand. Painting tops of columns for the Younger Woman's Club of Louisville's Egyptian Ball Feb. 28 at the Fairgrounds are, from left, Mrs, Donald Weber, Mrs, Robert Maddox, Mrs. Merritt Marcus, By JOAN KAY Courlir-Journil Staff Wrltir As club functions go, there are some strange sounding committee names for the Younger Woman's Club of Louisville's biggest venture of the year. There is a Tut-Tut committee, a pylon committee, and a column committee.

All the members are working at top speed now on an ancient theme Egypt for "Tut-Tut," an Egyptian ball. The annual charity ball, which last year raised $21,000 for community institutions and organizations, will be given Feb. 28 from 9:30 to 1:30 at the Fairgrounds Coliseum. Many of the members are living daily with reproductions of Egyptian culture. Lying flat on the floor of one basement are two 25-foot figures of King Tut.

At another home are sections of the 35-foot pylon (gateway building) which will be at one end of the ballroom. Ninety columns, a third bearing elaborate hieroglyphics, will line the ballroom, and a good number are located in the basement of dance chairman, Mrs. Robert L. Brymer, for workshop sessions. "It's very interesting when the meter man comes," she notes.

The dance program is illustrated with pictures of Egyptian life in a humorous vein. Next to the listing of the sponsors, whose contributions help pay expenses of the ball, there is a picture of ancient Egyptians bearing gifts. An Egyptian figure bearing another on his back looks into the list of the charity ball committee. Begin Day Before Because the Fairgrounds Is In such demand, the dance committees will have less time than usual to put the large pieces of scenery in place. They will get to work at noon the day before; thus the husbands will play an even bigger role this time.

Brymer, Jack Copenhefer, whose wife is dance cochairman, and three husbands of decorations cochairmen, William T. Whittenberg, Merritt Marcus and Don Weber, are organizing the mobilization of forces and assigning tasks in advance, such as helping raise a 40-foot sail of an Egyptian ship. In the midst of the preparations there will be a birthday celebration. Bobby Brymer will be 11 that day, and his mother plans to take a cake out to the Fair, grounds for a party including the other Brymers, Kathy, 13, Chuck, 9, and Billy, who'll be 5 on Feb. 22, and the Copen-hefers' children, Greg, 10, and Leanne, 8.

"We'll sit down in the middle of the mess and have a party." The Brymers, natives of Illinois, have lived nine years in Louisville where he is an account executive for Zimmer-Mc- from left, Mrs. James Grain cochairman; Mrs. Richard W. Her, and Mrs. J.

Natalie Brymer, who joined the club in 1962, served last year as secretary of the ball.
