BARBARA HAWTH1O 'ROUND TJ _ HC By Marcia Fischer an Welcome back to school! Same old place. It didn't change much over the summer except for those crazy new sprinklers that they put on the horseshoe. Now the poor student doesn't stand a bit of a chance. There are lots of new faces and names to get acquainted with this year. We, on this staff, want to be sure that we get all the news of all the parties and activities that are going on. Just to be sure that you are mentioned in this column at least once a semester, it's a good idea to send the news in to The Gamecock, Box 49. Please have your news in by three o'clock on Monday. It may not be printed if you don't. Now let's get on the real scoop ---the activities of the Carolina Crowd over the summer.

Vomen's Fashions 57 Fall Fashii Personality O By Marcia Fihcer Staff Writer Designers have, for the past ,eeks, been presenting their fall nd winter collections. '1'e styles will create a new ra of taste. In clothes, as in the ntire way of living, elaboration nd individualit.y begin to replace ark simplicity and standardiza ion. "The Look" fades in favor f "Good Looks," with a woman's ersonality playing as vital a part s her figure. A change from "cut" to "drape" ill be the basis of the silhouette. 'he brittle Empire sheath has tel!ed into creamy softness. Still igh-wa istid and slender, it is now tfluenced by the French Direc )rate (1790) with the Edwardian Gilded Era" t 1;)0-1'2). Nothing is visibly stiffened or nilt-ont. Thin suipple fabrics are loosed or draped over shoulders nd hosom, with narrow draped r wrapped skirts. The waistline rca is shaped "small" by wide :al hes, elevated helts or draped a nls caught.t with flowers or t ws. olds instead of pleats are used o arrange full skirts. Wrapped nd-tied effects are important as 01n.,t1uction and as trimming. L.ots of fabric will be used to nok like little. Shallow drapery, irs, and filmy layers of different i1:04-rial> in color over color will >c high style. Women will look t:xutriously muffled and slightly wiples in barrel wraps, flowing a1pes, huge ahawl or hood collars, ndl ehborate hare.n hemlines. You will see the amplified coal ilhounette, which manages to lool< m1row but achieve great sweel t the hem. The contracted suit ilhouette will include a muet lr er, miore fitted jacket. The l ong-liegge d feeling will be ytical of :ll kinds of clothes. Th th- lti-d histline is marked by a!rio bands, satin sashes of ratiir heclts; which go well abovc he n11 ural waistline. M a n y i-i--s are topped with satin ,o hii1oi to highlight the boson trea. Shirts rise high at the froni r side with a point of drapery oI mtines the entire front whI at the hustline.

I really do like r those girls, but I don't know I whether I should pledge or not. t Have these questions and - thoughts occurred to you since you have come to Carolina? If so, we would like to give some pro's - and con's for joining a sorority or a fraternity. Exactly what are these respec tive organizations? Webster's New Collegiate Dictionary defines Rule Concerning t Bermuda Shorts Bermuda shorts are not to be worn by girls off the quadrangle around the women's dormitories. This is a new rule released to the women students by Arney R. Childs, dean of women. Bermudas may be worn in the dormitories, sorority rooms, and on the womens' quadrangle. Also, they may be worn to registered parties requiring informal attire. Girls may not wear Bermudas to Russell House or any other build ing on the main campus.

Sor-er m in .come A Pled a sorority as "a club of girls or women, as in a college," and a fraternity as "a body of men asso ciated for their common interest, business, or pleasure; a brother hood." These strict definitions do not attempt to give you the complete idea of a Greek-letter man or woman. A fraternity or sorority takes up much time which you could use very well in studying or extra curricular activities. It costs money-assessments, dress, etc. Some independents receive the impression that you are a member of a clique and do not associate with those who are not in your ?5orma/ 1Wei Men's Clothing, Sh and Furnishings ( Author of "B ANOTHER YEAR, A Today I begin the thi umn for Philip Morris Ciga my heart.

There is much work connected with the different activities in which the fraternity or sorority7 - engages during the year. Each one must take part. These are views presented against pledging. But there are, also, advantages. These organizations unite the pledges With each other into a strong, working unit, and knit the bonds of friendship between them. Good grades are stressed, so it teaches you to organize your available time to be able to study, also. Belonging to a fraternity or sorority gives you added prestige.
