Fashion By Sylvia Hanna Society Editor Carolina's best-dressed coed will be selected this spring for compe tition in a national collegiate con test sponsored by "Glamour" mag azine, a Conde Nast publication. The well-dressed woman will be chosen by a committee of three persons, including two students and a faculty member. The com mittee will not be made public until the end of the contest on this campus. The coed to be named as the University's best-dressed will be determined by several criteria suggested by "Glamour." First of all, she should have a nice figure, since a really well dressed woman is never careless about her shape, according to the magazine editors. Being able to wear clothes well is just as im portant as being able to select and coordinate one's wardrobe. Not Just Neat, Impeccable She knows that a great deal of her beauty depends on good grooming. She isn't just neat, she's 8} AND AWAY WE GO! . . .

The coed will be aware that a college campus is not the place for an extravagant wardrobe, and spends only an average amount on clothes. .She uses imagination in managing her clothes budget. The "most" does not necessarily indicate the "best" when it con cerns clothes. She dresses according to the customs of the Carolina campus, since the term "well-dressed" im plies "appropriately" dressed. Although she understands Car olina's fashion rules, she still ex ercises individuality. The way she uses color, and the kinds of acces sories she wears will make even an everyday outfit seem unmis takeably hers. On Campus and Off The University's well-dressed coed knows the difference between good fashion and, good campus fashion; away from college she drops fads that are too collegiate for her off-campus life.

Make-up should be chosen to blend with natural coloring, and to emphasize her best features. She is fussy about her hair and makes a point of keeping it clean and shining.

Inclusive Plan This coed has an over-all ward robe plan and has probably learned how to use accessories to create different kinds of looks for her basic wardrobe.

Reynolds Staff Writer A conglomeration of effectively engaged color schemes, the second in a temporary series of modern art creations is currently on dis play in the Assembly Room of the Russell House. Various modes of talent as portrayed in "dry-point" and lithographic originals are shown. While interest in these studies has been relatively little, with only a smattering of art and con scientiously curious students straggling into the auditorium to view the studies, a few inquiring observations provide a unique revelation for even the most no vice audience. Little can be determined by the unlearned in this elite culture, but a pause for egrnest interpretation may be amusing. Some of the creations, and it is modestly assumed that they are, ruCK FOR M SEND IT WHAT ARE WISE MEN'S EARNINOSI Sages' Wage. NANCY SMITH. U.

Unique in its frankness, but elever in its obscurity, is one sketch entitled, "Homage to Circe," which tends to retreat into the unreal, portraying the orgies of a perverted mind, while at the same time exposing the beast and savagery of what the artist must have conceived as man's human nature. Equally interesting, but unreal in application, is a work allegedly representative of "Horses in Bat tle." The heads of these estranged animals appear to bthe e that of a dragon of King Arthur's days, attached to green "Schmoos" of the contemporary Lil Abner strip. The body of an oversized man attached to two deformed legs, and prostrated on the ground, is aptly described as "Reclining ONEY? DO A e DO YOU like to shirk work? Stickling!

Another series of suggestive lines is tabbed "Figures," anato my or otherwise. This should not be miscon strued, however, as a professional criticism of the art, for which in flationary prices from $15 to $45 have been applied individually. For truly, the student or art, pseudo or real, will no doubt find the prices reasonable, and the in terpretations sensible. Nonetheless, for even the most unartistic scholar will no doubt get deep feeling and a sense of meaning from the successfully applied color schemes, regardless of personal interpretation, sane or otherwise. The paintings are reputed to be works of art. This issue will not be debated, for in the circles catering to this sort of thing, there may be genuine merit; but for the casual student, they have limited appeal.
