For the sartorial-inclined las sies have made Vogue their book of laws and proceeded from there . . while USC heroes are reluc tantly becoming aware of the fact that a dimpled-knee is sinking into oblivion. Broad padded shoulder and stockingless legs are decidedly outdated as univer sity lovelies pour their old selves into a 1947 fashion mould to come out thoroughly re-designed. And, just Tor the books, here are a few of the better results complete with all the trimmings dark hosiery, longer hem-lines, miniature waistlines and accen tuated hipsl Pat Young, freshman from Co lumbia, took the new look in her stride, and emerged looking like a Mademoiselle fashion plate at a Sigma Nu country club party last week. Designed slightly off the-shoulder with long sleeves and very full skirt, Pat's black faille dress stole the show. Her shoes were modified opera pumps and her stockings were of sheerest black. The Alpha Delta Pi sorority dance last Friday found Carolyn Phillips of Barnwell, Homecom ing queen, giving Terpsichore a hard time in a new evening gown of peach satin made strapless with a bustle back. With it she wore matching satin mitts. Bert Hemingway, senior from Andrews, lured flocks of stags her way in a moss green taffeta ballerina at the Jimmy Dorsey dance Monday night. Fashioned with a low neckline and high Elizabethan collar, the dress pointed up a tiny waistline. Her flat heeled shoes were silver kid, and she wore a rhinestone neck lace and earrings. Giving the Chi Omega coffee hour a bit of spice the other af ternoon was Alecta Hall, sopho more from Columbia, who helped hostess rather efficiently in a cocktail dress of black velveteen with a half-moon neckline, tiny demure puffed sleeves and full skirt. Her shoes were the new barefoot sandals.

Independents To Sponsor Campaign For Members An advertising campaign and membership drive was planned by the men's Independent Club of the university during their last regular meeting. The club will send out 200 invitations to non fraternity members inviting them to attend their meetings and join the club if they wish. "The club will be publicized at other campus functions whenever possible, however it does not con flict with fraternities in that its members are free to withdraw at any time. Our only purpose is to help provide social activities for those who do not care to join fraternities," said John Norton, publicity committee man. "We believe if students knew more about the organization they would like to become members," said John Whalen, second vice president. Neill, and Page Robinson, No. IX, with Mary Cashin. Y'S, Inc.
