Looking for an effective way
to brighten uip and change those
winter campus togs while you
wait for Spring?
Try a scarf! A printed silk
scarf tied a new or different
way can brighten up the oldest
blouse, sweater, or basic dress
and give YOU a lift, too.
For a perky lift to hide o"r
change the neckline of that comfy
old sweater try a petal collar..
Petal Collar
Fold a 24-inch scarf diagonally,
knotting the scarf at the back
of the neck, leaving the points in
the front. Pull the scarf ends
under at the back and around to
the front at each side.
To make the cat whiskers, fold
an 18-inch square on the diagonal
into two equal triangles. Tie a
knot at the throat, leaving tiny
points about two inches long.
The "side sweep" is simple to
tie, yet a fine accent to any neck
line. Fold an 18-inch scarf, en
velope style, tie around the neck,
and knot on one side, leaving
points.

Mid-century Rosette
Or for that basic dress a "mid
century rosette" can look stun

well.

straight to a width of three
inches. Tie it in ' slip knot at
one side of the neck and fluff
out the edges to form a double
rosette.
( /
Loop Cravat
Another jaunty change for a
round-neck sweater - the "loop
cravat." Fold a 36-inch scarf,
envelope style (opposite corners
folded to the center, ends over
lapping a bit) to a three-inch
width.
Fold in the center and loop the
fold around one hand at the back
of the neck. Pull the ends
through the fold and tighten. Add
a pin if desired.
For a bib tie, fold a 24-inch
square diagonally. Then fold the
wide diagonal side over about
three inches.
Drape around the neck, leaving
the points at the front. Pull the
ends around to the front over
the points and tie a knot.
Bib Tie
There are endless ways to wear
a scarf: tuek it through a belt
or into a pocket or sleeve, tie it
as a sash, drape it as a deep front
bib or a four-in-hand tie. Pull It
through the buttonhole of a suit.
And as you experiment and
create, remember "if winter
comes, can spring be far behind?7"

South Carolina in the form of a
chapter of ADPI, the only one
in this State.
At present, AiDPi has 96 chap

Paris, Hawaii and Canada. The
Memorial Headquarters Is in
Atlanta, Georgia. Between June
24 and June 30, Quebec, Canada
will be host to the Alpha Delta
Pi's from all over the United
States at the National Conven
tion.
The activities that the sorority
participates in each year are their
Christmas party for the orphans
of the surrounding homes, and
the Easter project which might
be helping the Jaycees or some
other worthwhile activity. Once
every two years, they entertain at
their Winter formal, which, inci
