It’s This Way By Marpe Petseh I I Why is it that every time a wo men’s editor lacks interesting copy she sends one of her reporters out to interview campus big-wigs on the age-old controversy of women ; smoking? We note that in an eastern col lege such a round-robin interview | brought the usual answers: discreet, rash, unthinking, cautious, or un concerned. We would suggest that, instead of asking opinion, pro and con, about it, that we consider the Burmese. Yes, the Burmese! In Burma, women have smoked for such a long time that no one even thinks about it any more. It’s stale copy! With them, smoking is sec ond nature, indulged in constantly. They have it down to such a sys tem that when they smoke they balance little baskets on their knees to catch the ashes. For years wo men have smoked cheroots In Bur ma, but now the younger damsels are favoring cigarettes—much to the disgust of their elders. Nor are Burmese women con cerned much about their modes in dressing, although we are told that they know how to give “that dash of a certain something" to their costumes. At the present time, we read in the California Daily Bruin that there is a hot debate going on at U.C.L.A. about “short skirts.” Rome like ’em long, others short. About the best opinion offered was that of a campus male, who said, “I like ’em tall.” Did we hear some one say “The higher the fewer?” Fun, fun, for the co-eds! More people came back from vacation engaged or hc-pinncd or promised. Leap year lias its advantages, don’t you think? “The hope of marriage need not restrain any young woman from se curing a professional training,” says Estelle M. Sternberger in the latest, issue of B’nai B’rith. Of course, her observations had noth ing to do with Leap Year, but they are interesting. Rhe goes on to say, “There are many who have been grateful for the fact that when life’s circumstances brought trage dies to their homes, they were able to step out into the world and right fully claim a position of responsibil ity. And there are others who have gained greater happiness in mar riage simply because they have been able to win their own spurs and so increase a husband's admir ation.” * * * Estelle M. Sternberger is one of our outstanding Jewish women of tills country. Iler page, “The Wo man’s Review,” which appears in the B’nai B'ritli magazine every month, contains valuable informa tion about women's activities. She Is vigorous, keen in her criticism, and her writing is highly judgmati cal. * * * Remak heard in Mark Hopkins hotel at 59 minutes to one, a. m., New Year's Day: “Well, Johnny, will you?” No grass grew under her feet! L. L. Kay Speaks To Reporting Class L. L. Ray, district attorney and former graduate of the University of Oregon, spoke to Mr. Turnbull's 8 o’clock reporting class Thursday, explaining the duties and news sources connected with his office. He is the first of a list of city officials Mr. Turnbull has sched uled to speak to his classes at various times during the term. DUDLEY FIELD SHOP They Ye llio Rage! What 1 EAR MUFFS ()£ Course!

Merchandise of Merit Only PIIONE 2700 Styles Change With Season; Skirts Shorter By MARGUERITE KELLY Fashion has its ebbs and flows just as do the tides. And strangely enough they are almost as frequent. Tips picked at random from the realm of the stylists are often more revealing to ardent followers than attempts at forecasting all trends. A small detail may clearly indicate the next season’s leading fashion. This is the way the “famous forty” keep at the head of the parade. Novelties that are out or going out, and definitely to be avoided are the military frogs and furbel ows. Victorian nets over the black hair are no longer clicking. To be truthful, they never did. Felt hats with quills are rapidly disappear ing, much to the disappointment of the Tyrolean addicts. And aren’t we getting tired of flame red eve ning gowns! New Favorites Things considered on the up and up are touches of white, loads of tulle, black velvet jockey caps, and old-fashioned cashmere and wool jersey. Evening jackets are seen a great deal. Another novelty is the dinner suit for women. For evening the colors are dead white, dead black, cerise, and bright vio let blue. Skirts Shorter Shorter skirts are becoming prominent. Also manly sack suit suitings. All things Scotch are in favor now and will be much more later. Prize fighter shoulders in stigated by Schiaparelli are going “strong.” A new color is a beautiful Madonna blue. A whim for evening is shiny white satin, severely tail ored. Embroidery and beading are still very popular. Don’t laugh, but satin pantalettes are now to be seen under slit evening skirts. Plaid jackets and plain skirts have come to confuse those who have just bought plain jackets and plaid skirts. Chinese colored felts—jade, coral, and amber—have caught the approving eye. Martinique washer lady turbans are amusing novelties in the hat line. Gypsy prints are true harbingers of spring. They are being worn in the South now, which surely means that they are destined for us later. Sprrell and Lee To Speak on KOAC Donald Sorrell and Jason Lee speak tonight at 8:45 over KOAC on “America’s Stake in World Peace.” This student forum is under the direction of John L. Cas teel, director of the speech division. Two more forums on the neutrality question will be given over KOAC under Mr. Casteel's direction. Mr. Casteel announces that a second series of such broadcasts will be open to anyone wishing to enter during spring term.
