Carl Edward Glock of Wightman will be married on Saturday in Old Greenwich, to Miss Lois Peace Higgins, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Everett Higgins of Old Greenwich. The couple's engagement was announced some time ago and they had expected to wait until after the bridegroom-to-be had graduated from Havard Law School this June. Lieutenant Glock is now attached to the Signal Reserve The sub-committee in charge of new developments in the perennial Women Dress to Please Whom line has a new report: Women, this hot-from-the-griddle memo runs, dress to make each other envious, but select their perfumes to tantalize and enchant men.

Much could be said on this subject. In fact, much has been said, and in great detail, and By ANNE WEISS Alumnae luncheons and teas scheduled for the week include that of the Wells College Club tomorrow at the home of Mrs. V. C. Doerschuk, Glen Arden Drive.

The program will in with all the heat of a native Georgian discussing Sherman march to the sea. Whether women dress to please men or to enrage other women is one of those tasty little moot points that can liven up any dull evening. I don't like to carp, and I would hate to spoil any random illusions, but I have more than a sneaking suspicion that women, bless their hearts, do clude a report of the Alumnae Council by Mrs. Irving Wilson.

Juniors Attend Miss Higgins, who has asked Miss Ruth Jenson of old Greenwich to Fall Conference be her only attendant, is a cradu neither. But wait a moment. It might be more accurate to say that they do both, and dress with several other mixed motives, besides.

That makes it all the more confusing, which is as it should be. Just look at Seraphina when she's all togged out for the weekly bridge get-together of the girls in her crowd. That little black dress with the turquoise and coral and gold embroidery about the throat wasn't picked up at a fire sale. Nor was the concoction of feathers and veiling which tops her pompadour so provocatively bought blindfold. If anyone should ask you, Seraphina's aim in life at this minute is to put the girls' eyes out.

They're her best friends, but she hopes they'll hate her for a moment when they see how charming she looks. Saturday Night Date Now look at Seraphina again. It's Saturday night, and she's going dancing with her best beau. She hopes to the high heavens that hell get around to proposing tonight. But Seraphina is not a girl to leave everything to hope.

The Sewickley Horticultural Society is made up mostly of professional gardeners and members of local garden clubs who are interested in learning about horticulture. M.

She looks all moonbeams and mist and the sparkle of snow. She looks as angelic as her name. Tonight Seraphina doesn't care what the girls think or say. It would be nice if they chewed their lipstick off with envy, but she doesn't really care whether they even see her. With the will to win of a pointed out.

She urged that all clubs in the county and state stress nutrition as one of the most important issues in the home defense program.

The show, which lasts through tomorrow, is considered one of the best in the district and besides the arrangement classes there are prize blooms, exhibited from the greenhouses of Mr. and Mrs. J.

That's Seraphina in two of her moods. But if you think that's all there is to It, you dont know Sera-phiia. Tomorroow she may be feeling particularly gay and out of this world perhaps her young man did propose. So what does she do? She buys a bonnet daffier than any she ever had, a hat which would make that young man throw up his hands in horror and swear never to touch a drop of the stuff again. Or she may be feeling lower than low perhaps the young man didn't propose, after all so she buys an even daffier bonnet, and faces the world with a new lift to her chin.

May Have Been Reading Or perhaps Seraphina's been reading the newspapers, or maybe even a book about the shape of things to come. All the talk about preparedness, practicality and shoulders-to-the-wheel puts Seraphina in a sedate mood, and she buys a strictly tailored dress in beige or olive drab, one of those that will be as good five years from now as it is today, if we can believe all we hear. And youll never see anyone more business-like than Seraphina while the mood lasts. But if there's a good football game coming up Saturday, don't be surprised if Seraphina sinks her savings in a red flannel coat lined with curly white lamb's fleece and prepares to look her pertest for the good of old State U. Try to predict which way Seraphina, and you'll wind up in the booby-hatch.

But then if anyone could ever predict exactly what women are going to do when and why, it would be a very dull world indeed. the Dormont New Century Club trials, which is like a horse show American Revolution, will make a tour of the city tomorrow afternoon attending a special performance at the Sky Show at the Buhl Planetarium.
