Fratermty Honored Founders On Friday, March 13th, Lambda Chi Alpha held its annual Found ers' Day Banquet. It was held at the Carriage House and was at tended by all the brothers and pledges of Lambda Chi, and many alumni. Among the more impor tant people who attended were Dean Eugene Cooper, Dean of Men at Carolina, and G e o r g e Spasyk, Service Sec retary of Lambda Chi Alpha. Solely for convenience's sake, Founders' Day was held on the 13th. The actual date is March 22. The Lambda Chi Alpha fratern ity was founded on November 2, 1909. But on March 22, 1913 the ideals and ritual were changed by Dr. John E. Mason, one of Lambda Chi's greatest men. There are no accomplishments more w o r t h y than the birth of ideals which have the qualities to inspire men to finer activities and hind them together in a noble cause; hence, Lambda Chi celebrates Founders' Day as the birthday of the fra- d ternity's ritualistic t e a c h i n g s rather than the actual founding of ;d the fraternity.d From the thought of this ritual comes the planning for the Found ers' Day Banquet, which this year, as every year, turned out to be c b a wonderful and entertaining eve ning far the Lambda Chi's. The evening started off with a cocktail hour from 7 to 8 o'clock. This gave everyone a chance to 1 meet the alumni and the honored 1 guests. The Banquet was held d from 8-9 p.m. and everyone en joyed the meal that was served. After the dinner, the members anda their dates heard speeches from Bobby Barkoot, president of the Alumni Association, Dean Cooper, s and George Spasyk. Mr. Spasyk's . speech was especially interesting and appropriate. le told much of the National Fraternity Organiza tion and the background of Founders' Day. T T At the close of the speeches, Wendell Wilson, the r e t i r i n g tj chapter president, gave the re- n sponsibility of the chapter to Mike ir Mallison, the president-elect. Mike will be the president of Lambda Chi until Founders' Day 1965. The highlight of the evening c came when C a r o I e Jones was p crowned the C r esce n t Girl of g Lambda Chi by her predecessor Ann Brunson. Mike Mallison pre- 11 sented Carole with a dozen white di roses, the fraternity flower. is The evening was capped off by tt dancing to Jimmy Fert.ig's band from 9 p.m. - 1 a.m. at the Car- I riage House, a< t4 Fashions Create An Interest st With her in mind, a magazine's tI March issue features the Young fI Tycoon - the girl with dliploma in-hand, hound for a new life inw business, polities, the professions. ti Any girl about to graduate or i tackle a summer job could profit di by these MLLE fashion notes. g WHITE COLLARS AND CUFFS, c< always seen together and always pl impeccable, are reminiscent of the t< 1930's "Kitty Foyle'' look.

More il softenings: an easy, A-line skirt; - mock cuffs on a gray-and-white pinstripe suit, round-cut neckline; a floppy bow on a crepe blouse; a navy polka-dot scarf, middy-style. Suitable fabrics for these looks include wool, rayon and rayon acetate. Suggested accents: a straw roller, an enamel pin. Re suIts: unmistakably .'eminine. THE POLITIC WHITE COAT states its case beautifully, sue cinctly in double-knit wool with the swagger of military detailing: epaulets, brass buttons, a flip col lar. For the spring coat, read "white wool." Look for it in twill and basketweave; find it in a Chanel mood or hip - belted and box - pleated. Raincoat looks for '64 reiterate the military theme: more epaulets, brass buttons, cadet collars.

Good grooming doesn't depend on your pocketbook - it depends on your knowledge of how to make your clothes last. The worst enemies your clothes have are dirt and perspiration. Dirt, even invisible dirt, weakens fabric, can spoil its shape, and at tracts moths and insects. Perspira tion, because of its acid nature, not only stains, but can actually rot fabrics. So the first rule for making garments last longer is to wash or dryclean them often, never allow them to go soiled from season to season. Drycleaning is what your best clothes usually require. If you take them to one of the do-it-yourself coin-operated drycleaning centers (often they are attached to a coin op laundry center) it needn't be a financial drain - the rate often is eight pounds cleaned for eight qluarters. However, t h e r e are things you should know about do-. it-yourself drycleaning. . The machines usually fall into two categories: those using a sol vent called "perchlorethylene." and those using "Valclene@," a new Du Pont product that does the job in 14 - 16 ni i n u t e s. Garments -leaned in "Valclene" do not need to be heat dried, so they won't wrinkle and can take into the ma -hine with them, plastic buttons, nost leather and suede, and fur ,rinis. However, all solvents will stiffen soft plastic such as is used n some jackets; so these are not lrycleanable. Because there is this difference )etween what each of the two so! vents can do, you should know vhich one your coin-op uses before ou toss you! treasures in. Another vital bit of information tbout cleaning and cleaning flu (s - there are three kinds of pots, or soils: 1. Soivent soluble spots, such as oils, grease; 2. Water soluble, such as salts, sugar; 3. Insolubles, such as dirt or (lust. All drycleaning fluids remove 1o. 1, but no drycleaning fluid lissolves No. 2. The insolubles, No. 1, are removed by detergent in the leaning fluids and the tumbling etion of the machines. You must remove or treat sugar pots, particularly candy, ice ream, cola and other sugary ~oods, before putting your clothes n the machine. When you do not now the nature of a spot, sponge t gently first with warm water nd a mild detergent solution on he off chance that it is a sugar ypo stain. Many other stains can be re noved from washables and non vashables before your trip to the oin-op. Ilere is a list of some of he more annoying stains and vhat to do about them.

Wine stains: sprinkle with salt, then use boiling water method. Soft drinks and alcoholic bever ages: these stains often don't show up at first but can turn brown after aging. They should be sponged with water or with detergent and water. Fruit and berry stains: Never use soap - it sets the stain. Loosen fruit particles under cool water, then soak overnight in plain cool water, rub with deter gent and launder as usual. If necessary bleach with hydrogen peroxide - in one to eight pro portions - for whites. Test be fore you bleach for color fastness. Cherry. peach, p;umb and pear stains are different. Give them the same treatment, then rub with liquid detergent, rinse, and wash. Bloodstains: Never use hot water. S:ak in cold water, or else sponge with cold water. Perspiration stains: When fresh they often respond to a warm water and detergent solution. Sometimes old stains respond to sponging with a weak solution of water and white vinegar. After wards, wash the spot with water. 1) Hang garments on suitably shaped hangers as soon as you take them off. That keeps you well pressed. 2) Alternate the garments you wear to give clothes a chance to get rid of wrinkles and return to the shape built into them. That i keeps their crisp, new look much r longer. 3) Keep clothes in a cool, dry, airy place, and never hang in :loset while wet. 4) Give your entire wardrobe an ccasional airing. 5)Brush dust and lint from a !lothes frequently, always brush- k ing in direction of the map.
