"What's with these florists?'
Five bucks for two lousy rose
buds! ,Man, how do I get rooked
into these formals? What a day!
Busted an hour quiz this morning
found a spot on my tux jacket
after lunch (the cleaners (did me
a big favor and removed it in a
hurry . . . for $1.50). Man, these
formals will ruin a guy!
I can see a real big evening
coming up. I hardly knowv this
dame, but she gives me a big
break and slips me the invite.
Probably invited 10 other guys
first! I'm the sucker that ac
cepted. I can p)icture it all now.
A bunch of sorority girls falling
all over each other showving off
their new dresses.
Then there's the traditional
bunch of uncomfortable looking
slobs standing around in their
roommates' tuxedos, wishing they
were back in their dorms in a
poker game.
Why do I (do these things?
Probably got the wrong kind of
r flowers to boot. I better get back
to the (dorm and shine my shoes.
Oh, gosh, I forgot! I left my black
shoes at home. Guess I'll have to
shine my ROTC shoes for the
first tine this semester.
Look at the time! Gotta hustle!
Where's that darn tie? "Hey,
Mike. . . .You got a black bow
tie? Whew ...thank goodness.

Evening dresses, car coats, cock
tail dresses, man-made fur coats
and other paraphenalia in women's
wardrobes have recently been
described in detail. The male ele
ment has been ignored. Now, men
shall have a chance to show off
Adonis-like profiles in the latest
evening wear.
The perennial stand-by is the
worsted midnight blue, single
breasted, tux. Matching this, is
a midnight blue cummerbund and
bow-tie with starched shirt front
and collar. The black oxfords
with plain toe are always in good
taste for even the most elegant
affairs.
Previously, formal soiries have
been uncomfortably stiff collared
affairs, but the rebellious spirit
of man has shown through with
a brilliant light. Man has to be

Shoes have gone casual and
light weight (so one won't crush

patent leather with a plain toe
and bow are the most appropriate.
Some manufacturers have designed
slip-ons with no ornamentation
at all. With slip-ons or oxfords
a high gloss polish is a must.
