And there was the Damn-Us Bawl N
last nite......Arm in arm came the N
ossified and their oats-Dot Brat with S.
Hair Breadth Clary Libbabeth Hunch
(the famous authority on institutions)
and Pop Towel, (he popped something da
else before the evening was over) in
Raisin' Cain with Frank Suburban T
(and how) Bitta Persimmon and Gene at
Crusoe; and last but not better, Grace he
Livegore leading Dick Big on a leash. sa
The boys (bless'em) must have al
primped for hours to look so so divine. ha
We especially admired the lace on the s<
cuffs of petit Jack Windowflinger, and
the new note on satin stripes in Ukelele te
Williams' trousers. And then there ;n
was the unusual shade of green crepe ti
de chine shirt worn by charming curly th
haired Diggs. That I know was the
envy of every other masculine darling
there.
(Did you know that Pop Towel
dropped his corsage wright in the mid- s
die of the grand march?) Sighed Pop: m
"Everything happens to poor little tl
met"
Heigh ho! Methinks it was a very
enjoyable bawl.

Jimmy Dicklinson, new president of

week-end down by the river in a tent. vi
He said it was the only way he could h
catch a naaaaaap. (Heck, where is that w
bromide peddler?) sh
Harriet Henfield and Genie Satchell su
went bill cooing last week-end. Re
ports are they caught three bags full.

The house party at the home of Karl n<
Harness on Lake Hackensacky was sp
almost a sunkcess they had such a in
flood of uninvited pests. The host tells
the tale thus: "We were a cosy party
of four (did we say party?) when those L
awful people hoisted in. The first I w
saw was that progenitor (?) of the w
histrionic art, Ed Mc Ego, who grinned
fiendishly, handed me a wet sponge
and passed inside. Then I saw Luseal
Mice, Cathrin Mole, and Dash Koger in
...." At this point the poor suffering ;s
host fainted. We hope it was the end. d<

abroad (and locally) that the renowned m

Fig Leaves
By She-Are-A-Lot Perch
Spring is here with a bustle here and
bustle there-mostly there. The big
er the bustle the more alluring. Three
s the usual number worn with the new
8 inch-from-the-floor evening dresses
-these new hustles succeed in giving
that certain something" to the figure.
The stockings that go with these
bove-knee creations are service
veight, in extra long lengths, so that
hey may be wound up around the
eg-giving them puffy effects.
Sunday-Go-To-Meetin dresses are
nkle length, slit to the knee to show
he 17 button high top shoes. Their
vaistlines (and all others) have
eached the lowest level. They are hip
ength and contrive to give one the
ecautiful bulgy, barrel-like effect, so
~oodl this season.
Coats p)lay an important part-they
re tight-fitting until just before the)y
each the ankles-when they go into
'ardls of flares. You are definitely
out of style" if you wear any other
ype of coat.
H-ats are in two distinct groups. One
~roup is composed of very large hats
vith fluffy white willow plumes which
wveep the neck and succeed in making
>e look very coquettish. The plumes
lust be worn due to the large demand
o look coquettish.
The other group is composed of
ght, close fitting, pull-on hats, which
ome to your eyes in front and to your
houlders in back. This hat is apt to
take one look enchantingly mysterious
the men.
The latest thing in nocturnal head
ress for madamoiselle is a huge cor
age of hydrangies or crysantheum
owers. The corsage should be worn
ocked tantalizingly on the side of
our new boyish bob.
As far as campus clothes are con
erned-plaid skirts are unusually good
rith polka-dot blouses.
The two smart color combinations
f the season are: red, purple and yel
>w; and burnt orange with water
ielon pink.

Launching their biggest undertaki
of the year, Alpha Kappa Dami
starts a campus-wide search for fo
leaf clovers today.
Each semester these campus lead<
start some worthwhile project for t
University. After much debate a
discussion entailing many called me<
ings (all perfectly attended), it w
decided that four-leaf clovers shou
be sought and transplanted to t
arboretum where a special plot is t
ing set aside so those students who I
lieve in the luck of a four-leaf clov
will not have such a hard time findi
specimens.
Ida Morris, leader of the leade
whooped, "Not only will this be
great aid to searchers but it will al
lighten the great burden on Marsl
Canty's shoulders by keeping studec
from trampling the grass in th
search. The Y pledges its support.
Members of this wonderful orga:
zation have generously agreed to gi
15 minutes every other day to t
search. They should be commend
upon their altruistic spirit, since th
are having to cut down meeting ;
tendance per day from seven to five.
Miss Gaines, commenting upon ti
service smiled and said enthusiastical
"It's for the good of the Universi
I shall carry the good news to eve
alumnae club in South Carolina."
Upon hearing of this service to t
school, Mrs. Childs shrieked with gl
and as usual the Extension Buildi
rocked joyfully on its foundatio
(that is, what's left of them).
Dean Chase in an inspiring orati
before the student body orated, "(
behalf of the administration, I exte
congratulations on this latest a
greatest."
Dr. McKissick added, "The glory
the University is in great measure <
pendent on you young ladies. We
onthett!!O '!1 you to increase the si
dent body."
Members of this serve-us group pl
to consult Professor Sumwalt as
manner of securing WPA grant 1
workers to assist in the project.
Blue Key and O. D. K. have be
calling numerous meetings to dev
plans for some service to rival t
Alpha Kappa Damma's noble cont
bution to the University.

The badge of membership, which
