    It’s This
Way
By Marge Petseh
If there ever was a president’s
wife who performed her every duty
with intelligence and a measure of
kindliness unexcelled, that first
lady is Mrs. Roosevelt. Whether
or not people feel that she makes
herself conspicuous in the news
reels or not, is not a criticism of
her particularly, but rather an in
dication of the many things in
which she interests herself.
* * *
One must admit, however, that
her face does not appeal to those
sensitive to beauty. One hesitates
to accuse distant cousin Alice
Roosevelt of the “unkindest cut of
all,” but the recent change in her
picture which runs with her daily
comments in leading newspapers
would seem to indicate such a
thought. The original picture, one
must admit, had a rather sour or
pickled expression about it, but it
was scarcely necessary to strive
for a carbon copy of the Eleanor
Roosevelt smile.
* * *
We received a letter last week
from the women’s editor of the
Stanford Daily, in which she re
quests a brief comment on the
lock-out system at Oregon. It is
with an inquisitive interest that we
replied to W. E. Millard Browne.
Stanford is a deal more lenient
with its women than Oregon, inas
much as coeds may obtain 2 o’clock
permission once a week. Senior
women frequently are allowed to
have keys to their sorority houses.
How different is Oregon! It’s prob
ably just as well, though. There
is remarkably little to do in Eu
gene after midnight in the way of
good, clean fun.
Henriette “Scoopums” Horak
didn’t know her own strength in
writing last week when she re
ported the Koehn lecture for the
Oregonian. With wide-eyed sur
prise she has noted the editorial
campaign which has started
throughout the state in response
to her assertion that the speech
was received by “shuffling” stu
dents. Every day when she sees a
new comment about her article in
editorial columns she gets that
look of “I did it with my little
hatchet” in her eyes. To the ob
serving college student, “Scoop
urns’ ” hatched was much duller
than it could have been. Just wait
until she sharpens it up a bit.
Boudoir interlude: Marg Ann
“Priss” Smith, illustrious first lady
of the Oregon campus, has been
easing out her nerves lately by a
dandy little pastime which she
claims is both a sedative and an
inexpensive method of satisfying
hunger pains. She’s taken up
sucker sucking. Thus far it has
not gone outside the privacy of
her personal room. “Priss” has re
membered thus far that the morale
of the campus women must be
maintained, despite strange per
sonal crotchets.
We didn't think Bill Marsh’s
story about our Tragedy in the
Sweet Tea Patch was very funny
the other day. He didn’t quite
catch the pathetic twist to the tale.
He'll be plenty ashamed of himself
when we pin the second sweet pea
of the season in his lapel. The first
one we’re going to press—as a
memorial to our magnificent ob
session.

More news about accessories!
Hats are nicest in felt for tail
ored effect this spring. The Des
cats, like a man's fedora are favor
ites right now since they can be
worn day in and day out and still
make the wearer appear “awfully
smart, don’t you know?” The flat
pie-pan type is popular also. Queer
colors such as snuff, faded cherry,
turquoise or pale plasticine blues
are best for felt hats or berets. An
amusing custom of carrying the
hat in the hand had arisen from
England. This is only for the coun
try, though.
The buttonhole or boutonierre is
a small item, but extremely impor
tant for correct garb this spring.
Drawing room flowers plucked
from chance vases and pinned on
everything—even sweaters— is the
style this year. The best flowers
are roses, carnations, jonquils, or
any flower giving the effect of
“packed bloom” in florists’ terms.
Your handbag should be of box
calf, medium sized, tough, firm,
and for extra smartness, hand
sewn in harmony with your gloves.
As for jewelry, the conventional
diamond clips and pearls may be
worn. The trend is to stress the
setting much more than the par
ticular jewel, however. Diamonds
are dressed up as if they were glass
or paste imitations. Try your
grandfather’s gold cuff links on a
tailored silk blouse. Brilliant buck
les are again appearing on opera
pumps. Pearls are worn in six or
seven strands—much as Queen
Mary wears hers. A new idea is a
wide gold bracelet or a jeweled
clip with a watch set in the center.
The main thing to remember in
choosing accessories is to keep
them in harmony. Don’t wear sev
eral different styles at once, and
don’t for example, use too much
jewelry.

ther of the groom, was best man.

AWS President
Discourages
‘Gray* Politics
After AWS nomination.0, were
announced yesterday the retiring
president, Margaret Ann Smith, in
an interview expressed the sincere
hope that politics of a 'grayer' na
ture can be kept out of the elec
tion next Tuesday.
“I hope that houses will not line
up for block voting. The idea of
one house trading its votes for the
return votes of another house to
back their respective candidate
does not seem at all fair,” contin
ued Margaret Ann. "Because half
of the girls are then voting for
some one whom they neither know
or really want.”
Margaret Ann believes that it is
only natural that a girl who has a
friend running for office should do
a bit of campaigning among her
own acquaintances. When the
campaign begins on the large
scale it loses the personal contact
and the candidate herself is not be
ing considered, only her affilia
ions.
“I am also hoping that there
will be no campaigning at the polls
with cars at the disposal of voters
in order to temp them into voting
as the campaigners desire.
"In order for the AWS to have a
better year and keep up the work
it has begun the officers will need
cooperation; to get this, they must
be backed by votes that recognize
leadership and not by those ob
tained through bribery. The girls
selected are all capable, but the
one best known by her leadership
should have the following she de
serves,” Margaret Ann concluded.
Former University
Students Married
In Klamath Falls
Miss Grace Lynch, prominent
student on the Oregon campus
three years ago, became the bride
of Mahr Reymers on February 20
in Klamath Falls. The rites were
performed at the home of the
bride, at a beautifully appointed
afternoon ceremony.
The daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
Herbert Lynch of Klamath Falls,
Miss Lynch was prominent in
campus activities while a student
here. She was an affiliate of Chi
Omega sorority. Mr. Reymers, a
graduate of the University, is the
son of Mr. and Mrs. C. G. Reymers,
also of Klamath Falls. While at
Oregon he was a journalism ma
jor, and a member of Delta Tau
Delta fraternity.
The couple will make their home
in Klamath Falls where Mr. Rey
mers is the proprietor of a service
station.
Kansas Editors
Back Landon
Again the University of Kansas
editors write an editorial regard
ing the state's candidate for pres
ident, Alf Landon:
The entire nation is turning their
eyes and ears toward Kansas to
day. This interest is not due, nec
essarily, to the fact that the state
will celebrate its 75th year of
statehood and 44th Kansas day an
niversary. The expected announce
ment by Governor Landon that he
is a candidate for the presidency
of the United States completely
dominates Kansas day interests
and activities. It is thought that
Landon will eliminate the adverse
criticism to which he has been sub
jected because he has, up to date,
consistently refused to indicate
his ideas and convictions on con
temporary problems, by demon
strating his availability by a
strongly-worded attack on the ad
ministration, and an expression of
jhis ideas.
This verbal attack, that is eag
erly awaited by the public, will add
; spice to the program of Kansas
j day; this year’s Kansas day will
I be the first to see a presidential
announcement of any consequence
The people of Kansas believe in
Governor Landon. They believe in
his sincerity of purpose and his ap
plication of common sense in at
taining results. They believe that
he can do for the United States
the same thing he has done for
Kansas—balance the budget.
