Jane Co Panhellenic Projects By BETTY OHLEMILLER Editor’s note: This is a contin uation of the scries begun last term on philanthropic projects of sororities. Beta Plii Alpha The realization that many of their own members needed finan cial assistance in order to complete their college careers caused Beta Phi Alpha to use their Memorium fund, established in memory of Mary Gordon Holway, counsellor of early Beta Phi Alpha. Origin ally it was to be used to aid any deserving college woman, but now is available only to members. Through gifts from the chapters, alumnae associations, and individ uals this fund increases." As soon as it has assumed the necessary proportions to fill more than re quests from members, the frater nity will extend the loan to non members as well. * * * Chi Omega The alumnae of Psi Alpha chap ter of Chi Omega on this campus are the donators of the cup which is given annually to the house which has the highest scholarship rating in the University. In commemoration of the place of its founding, national Chi Ome ga erected a Greek theatre on the University of Arkansas campus in Fayetteville, Arkansas. Dr. Florence Salin last year re ceived the Chi Omega achievement award, presented by the fraternity to the wqman who has done the most outstanding work in her field. Maintaining a service fund in or der to carry out various projects, Chi Omega is at present sponsor ing a study of “Women and Health" at Chicago, and “Chapter House Management” at Columbia university. On each campus where a chapter is located, a prize is giv en by that chapter to the outstand ing student in sociology. Two-tone Oxfords Attract Shoppers At Graham s Store By CYNTHIA LILJEQVIST Although spring is playing her usual little joke on us by making the heavens frown and causing our new spring clothes to remain disconsolately in the closets, we can still ruminate on how to be well shod or what to wear to the coming Mortar Board ball. * # * Seen at Graham's—a new ship ment of campus sport oxfords pop ularly priced at $5.00. Made of white elk with the desirable plain toe finish, they are swagger yet trim and just the thing to “round off” your sport outfit. Another attractive feature is the brown or black saddle. * * * And then there was the poor lit tle girl who stood and gazed long ingly into the big store window at the dresses. This is exactly what happened the other day. The store was H. Gordon's. The dress was a woman's idea of a perfect spring . . . yellow with a subdued brown plaid . . . evidently the pur pose of the designer was to revive the charm of the '90's. Exagger ated sleeves and a brown taffeta bow covering most of the back. Sad but somebody got it. $ sis * The dress of mouslin de soi her alds, a new trend in spring fabrics. Do we dare say without insulting the dress you just bought that sleeves are becoming larger and rounder and losing that puffy ap pearance. Yellows, aquatones, plaids, and checks are all sup posed to be good but again it all depends on your definition of good. * £ * And since our Paris dispatch failed to arrive we must necessar ily close with: “Costly thy habit as purse can buy, But not expressed in fancy; rich, not gaudy; For the apparel oft proclaims the man.” EDUCATION TO BE SUB JECT OF STEFFENS TALK (Continued from Carte One) with a greater knowledge of hu man weakness in public life, our social system is bound to undergo a growth for betterment. itc vacant this week-end, with no t Friday evening because of Good dances will be held, the Sophomore Shoppe and the Pan-Hellenic dance e an informal affair given for old ives of the women's living organi ok heads the committee in charge, assisted by Kay Watson, Blema Parker, Elaine Anderson.
