Most of the GOO delegates are j froin Europe and the U. S, and,, wear clothing TToT unlike that of the native Evaristonians. But j. many come from Asiatic, African and other tropical areas in which the dress many times resembles , the plummuge of a brightly colored peacock. Reaction to the costume and garlr-of- the Asiatics-and Africans ! ranged from amazement to admiration?and? <n many cases a mixture of both. .Airs. Bona Kan*fa Smart's bright orange print dres^r from British West "Africa drew marry admiring glances as. she strolled through Evanston's rich business district. When lie returned to the Northwestern university campus, there! were malty newsmen waiting to snajt her photo. Not only have most of the costumes heon exrteuiely brightly colored and futly decorated' with designs and synjnois, nut many <>i them are shapgd ami fashioned so as to be utterly foreign to Western eyes. One Northwestern co-ed, who stayed over from summer school to view the council proceedings, said she wouldn't be surprised if many college girls there "don't steal some of. the ideas from the foreign costume*i_and adapt them for their own uses." "After all", she pointed out, "some- of the-* things the girlswear around campus look just as strange and not half as pretty," I NEGROES, WHITES HEAR EASTLAND'S HID FOR JVJISSI-.
