SOUTHERN PACIFIC LINES Triple C Insists Red Cross Has First Claim on Wool. : Plying of Needle for Other Than Soldiers Is Branded as Disloyal. Pig-knitting was branded as unpatriotic ■when, Thursday afternoon at the Bun galow, the Triple C girls went on record as f’.voring the disappearance of the so called knitting. Pig-knitting is what its name implies, knitting for yourself some thing out of bright-colored yarn. As the 25 or more girls sat around the fireplace and their hands were busy with knitting soldiers’ sweaters, Mrs. Albert R. Svreetser. the Red Cross in structor in knitting for the University girls, gave a few words on pig-knitting. She explained that the scarcity of wool ■which has kept the diversity girls from knitting for the Red Cross during the last two weeks, is due to pig-knitting. ' Of cotiltse it seems hard that, al though we have the money and the time for this knitting, we still should not buy the yearn,” said one co-ed as she strug gled over a dropped stitch, “but never theless. I disapprove of pig-knitting. As long as there is a demand for the brightly-colored yarns, tne factories will continue to supply the demand, thus diminishing the output of wool for the 1 soldiers.” The junior girls decided that it is un patriotic to be knitting other than for e soldier, and a resolution was passed to read, “Re it resolved that Triple C set a good example before the University girls and place the stamp of disapproval on pig knitting.” Resolutions against pig-knitting have also been adopted at the University of Washington. Plans were discussed for making a monthly visit to the county poor farm, the gk’s taking candy and magazines with them. Reach girl is donating a lit:!'? something to the making of the candy and jn-y girls who were not at the meeting and wish to contribute something ore requested to hand their names to Kathryn Hartley, Essie Mc Guire. or Harriet Garret. The girls will melt at the Delta Gamma house the Sunday afternoon, before Thanks giving, at .1 oVock and make the eandv.
