Mademoiselle Spoul Contest For Womei Fads and Fashions by Mary Murray Let's face it. Spring has sprung. These skirts and sweaters must make way for fresh cottons and open-toes sandels. What's new in the fashion parade? Let's take a look. Your Easter bonnet can be one of many styles. The most popular with hat designers is the sailor. Varying from this spring's major color theme, black and white, in a striped straw to dainty pink, flower-covered affairs, the sailor will complement any outfit. And it does wonderful things for your profile, too. If you're choosing a dress for the Easter parade, make it a sheath dress. Straight and narrow, the sheath dress lends itself well to the match-box jacket, so popu lar this season. If you prefer a full skirt, silk shantung is the answer. Its soft, glowing finish combined with its touch of stiffness make shantung the fabric for gathers or pleats. In shoes, patent leather leads the list, again as a part of the major theme of black plus white. Calling a close second are the red shoes. Red is a new neutral to be used with almost every color. Gloves can be found to. match or blend with any costume. Striped gloves are still popular, and come in nylon as well as cotton. Catering to every taste and fashion whim, jewelry designers have come up with a multiplicity of ideas. Varying from chalk white, through painted pastels, red, Bass Makes Heroic Through Bloo Unharmi By JAC Staff Reporter I gave a pint of blood Monday. I had already given once before. That was back in November, the other time the blood people came to the campus. Actually it was pretty much fun. It was just before noon and I had just gotten out of political science 21 when I saw Anne Bracket. Anne is the Caffeine and Nicotine queen of Florence and possible the whole state. Possibly the whole nation or even wvorld as far as that goes. Anyway I had gone through the line back in November sitting next to Anne and listening to her. I might 'point out that anyone not deaf that sits next to Anne Brackett when she isn't gagged or coughing automat ically listens to her. Anyway as I was saying, I saw Anne and some girl named Lib or Liz. Lib or Liz was of the more silent and demure type (that means she didn't seem to want to talk-with me anyway). Anyway we went over to the Naval Armory and the first little old lady we see there Is at the registration desk. The place is overun with "little, old ladies." Sh tcsa piece of paper in front of you and says, "Sign your name and your parent's name." You sign and move over to one of the younger women, probably in her mid-thirties. She weighs you, takes your temperature, and feels your pulse. Then she writes it on the proper space on a card especially designed for the purpose. The same card was used in November *and I find that I've gained seven pounds, lost one degree in tem perature, and my pulse is two liess. All this time Anne is jabbering away. In November she told me that she wanted to be a mortician but would have had to wait for four years before she could get in a mortician's school. They don't believe in women sufferage. The next person is a man. He takes your blood pressure and rattles off a couple of dozen or so diseases that you say you haven't had and asks other questions such as, "Have you recently been in con tact with a person that has yellow jaundice?" Those you also answer In the negative. Finally you think you're getting down to business unless you've given before and know better. A younger nurse 'smiles and asks your name. You start to answer and she jabs a little pointed some thingr in your finger to draw Pors College Fictiom i Undergraduates Two First Prizes of $500 Are Offered MADEMOISELLE is agah sponsoring a college fiction con test for women undergraduates Top prize will be $500 to each o: two winners for serial rights t4 their stories and publication in thi August, 1958, College MADEMOI SELLE.

Th drop of blood sinks, so you knoi you've got enough hemoglobin. Now you come to the hen-part at the end of the Armory.

Onm of the complaints was that If we had a deck of cards we mighi could get into a card game sinc4 we had several pack. of matchei with us.
