(AP) Judy Lynn Funsch smiled coquettish-ly and flashed blue eyes from behind long, blonde strands covering her forehead.

"I'm going to have heart surgery," the 5-year-old said matter of factly between slurps on an ice cream stick. Judy entered University Hospital in Ann Arbor Tuesday, a place she has come to know well. Thursday she will undergo a rare and delicate heart operation. Doctors are not optimistic about her chances of surviving. "We know it's risky, but she's got no other way," said Mrs.

Clarence Funsch, Judy's moth-1 cr, of suburban Genesee Town-1 ship. Without surgery, doctors do not believe that Judy will live! more than a few years. If the operation is successful, she can1 look forward to a normal life, Judy's condition is called pulmonary venous obstruction. It, means that there is an obstruc-j tion in a vessel bringing oxygen ated blood from the lungs to the heart. "To sec her, you wouldn't think there was a thing wrong with her," Mrs.

Funsch said. "She plays normally, although she tires easily." Only her size she weighs 28 pounds gives an outward sign of the trouble within. Because of the lung complica tion, Judy is highly susceptible to disease. She has been hospitalized numerous times for pneumonia and she has suffered congestive heart failure. Since infancy, when her con dition was diagnosed, Judy has gone for regular examinations at University Hospital.

Last October, doctors decided that an operation could be at tempted to either remove the obstructed segment or replace it with a synthetic material. The doctors feared, however, that she might not survive the sur gery. To Display Angels For Churchwomen On Tuesday Night Miss H.

Chalk Talk For Fashion This Summer Some of the most high-fashioned words will be written in chalk for summer. Chalk beading with its clean white sparkle is happy refreshment as embroidery for the top of linen rhiffon or silk linen after five dresses. A most welcome change from the icv glitter of rhinestones which have predominated through the wintery months.

The chalk beading designs are lightly sketched, usually at the neckline and often repeated as a hem band (the hems no longer than mid-knee). While chalk beads are summer's most cooling decorative touches, other pretty looks that achieve the most feminine effects are ribbon embroidery or laces reembroidered often with ribbon. The whole el feet of after five for summer is light, gay and, charm ing. There is no emphasis on the tough chic a lady looks her part Even skimmer shaped dresses are made to look less architectural be cause of feminine treatments of embroidery or beading. There is i more emphasis on the waistline, more acknowledgement that therej is nothing prettier on a dance floor than a long sweeping full skirt.

The early spring indication that the short short evening gown would; be derigeur has not been borne out in the summer collections. They certainly do exist, but do not come close to replacing the elegance of long formal gowns. Club Trip Monday To Flower Show A bus trip will be held Monday for members and guests of the Ha-1 zlcton Garden Club to attend the Philadelphia Flower Show at the Civic Center, that city. Airs. G.

W. Martin is the chairman of reservations.
