Amelia Sue O'Dell began he]

next five or six years of it travel

other traveling she has done ha
been to New York, "which i
about as far north as I have eve:
been, and to Alabama which is a
far south. That's about all."

apart quite often. Well, it's better
than tearing your hair out.
She has also served on Pan

i this more than most of her other

I Last year Amelia Sue was see

t though it almost drove her crazy.
Amelia Sue is also a member of

She has been a member of Kappa

t. "That was the year we got a new
e coach." It was so funny because
s the other girls on the team would
n come over to my house after
e school and we'd play bridge. We
t- had an air - conditioning unit
g with an exhaust fan, and when
11 we s m o k e d we thought we
.t were getting away with some
thing. Of course when my mother

her, but that is beside the point.
When we played ball, we never
could figure out why we were so
short winded. Of course, the coach
knew but he never said anything
about it." Amelia said that she
spent more time on the floor than
she did standing up. Her mother
finally stopped coming to the
games because she almost had
heart attacks when Amelia Sue
would fall down and get trampled.
Among Amelia Sue's hobbies are
swimming and reading, but she
"cannot water ski. I try and I
try, but I never can get up. I get
water logged."
Another embarrassing t h i n g
happened to her in summer school.
It had been raining and Amelia
Sue had to stand outside of Davis
for ten minutes before she could
get in the building, so naturally
she got soaked. "Water was pour
ing out of my shoes and it was so
uncomfortable. When I got to Dr.
Seigler's class I took my shoes
off, and had my raincoat over
my feet. About halfway through
the class Dr. Seigler said, "Would
you like to take your shoes off,
Miss O'Dell?" I almost died. My
feet were completely out of my
a shoes and there was nothing I
y could do, so I just smiled and told

Prevent 'Blight'
Study Hard Now!
April is the month of Easter
Lnd the time when spring really
gets under way. It is the time of
he year for us to all take stock
>f ourselves and prepare for
inals. With this happy month we
hould forget some, not all, of the
ay spring parties and really set
leC down. Now that mid-semesters
re over, we can't goof-off.
You may think that those "hor
-ible things" are too far away to
hink about, but they're not. We
dl know how bad "cramming"
,an be, and we should start
~ighting that "blight" just as soon
is possible.
Sumnmer Fashion
Remains Simple
Summer is fast approaching,
and with it comes thoughts of the
each. The beach, the beach, the
3each. With the beach comes
houghts of new clothes. Two-piece
bathing suits are being featured
this year, and promise to be a
bigger style than last year.
The same old uniform of ber
mnudas and blouse, shirtail either
in or out, is as popular as it ever
was. Of course, the matching
toreador sets are great to cover
up sunburned legs.
If you've got a great tan on
your back, you can always wear
a sun-back dress, that will catch
the boys' eye.
For church, a plain, comfortable
cotton dress and heels are always
in vogue. Nothing elaborate, just
a madras suit or shirtwaist will
be suitable.
That's about it, summer is sum
mer and the simplest clothes are
always the best.
