It’s This
Way
By Marge Petsrh
California certainly holds out a
large assortment of amusements
for its tourists. This spring vaca
tion they offered everything from
sun tans to midnight fires in the
mountains. Fire equipment: no
telephone, one hose, water pres
sure of two feet, one faucet—a
stiff two-minutes run from the
burning cabin, six fire fighters.
Rescued: two pieces overstuffed
furniture, one picture (biblical),
one phonograph, one mattress, sev
eral pots and pans.
We are about to develop a perse
cution complex. And who wouldn’t,
we ask ? what with all the slander
ous remarks floating about regard
ing us! Twice yesterday, for in
stance, we bit on April Fool jokes.
Having been well pleased with a
wave given us by Catherine Kram
er, we proceeded to assume a dis
pleased attitude, with the result
that we were told that the wave
was very effective, considering the
face that went with it!

Marian "Cut-up” Allen, jolly lit
tle Pi Phi, made nasty cracks about
a linen dress we wore in an opti
mistic mood yesterday morning.
Jolly Marian was done away nice
ly in a cozy knit suit, when we sug
gested that maybe she might be
jealous of our new linen. Where
upon she informed us that she has
millions of new spring clothes
simply millions! Watch the fash
ion columns for further informa
tion. (Maran had just left the in
firmary when we saw her. My,
that place has a strange effect on
people!)

Ruth “I Likes ’Em Tall” Heiner,
new Chi O pledge and a recent ar
rival from that noble institution.
San Jose State college, has been
taking all of her new acquaintanc
es by the hair (figuratively speak
ing) with her casual comebacks.
What this world needs is a bigger
and better pun seems to be her
motto. It does no good to ignore
her, for she entertains herself then.
But she’s an attractive addition to
the campus, so people seem willing
to excuse her.

Loraine Goldbloom, who ex
pounds in the column, "Women's
Views," in the California Daily
Bruin of U.C.L.A., offers a timely
bit of advice to incoming freshmen
in respect to DISILLUSIONMENT.
She explains that many a young
girl comes to college with her opin
ion of prominent campus women
up in the ether some place, and af
ter meeting them finds herself
greatly disappointed. We think
Miss Goldbloom is probably right,
and that the fault lies largely with
the prominent woman. There are
not many women with positions of
importance on the campus who will
take the time or the trouble to
sparkle for a freshman except
during rush week. The "Big Sis
ter” idea of the A.W.S. helps in
some measure, but it is far from
water-tight.
Despite "hello walk” and our
most blind idealism for our insti
tution, the Oregon campus can be
a mighty “clickish" place upon
occasion. Being in a sorority or
fraternity insures one of certain
friends, but friendships are often
limited to those within the “bond.”

Little Czech Immigrant
To ‘Ace-High’ Journalist
Henriette Horak’s Story
By LAURA MARGARET SMITH]
Beginning a series of sketches of j
prominent Oregon senior women,!
which will be a feature of the wo- I
men's page from now on, we give
you the story of a little Czech im
migrant who came to be "tops” ir.
the University journalism school.
The name Henriette Horak, or,
in the language of her native coun
try, Yindriska Dobsova.
A graduate of Lincoln high
school in Portland, she was born
in Prague, Czechoslovakia, and in
1924 the 11-year-old war orphan
crossed the Atlantic alone.
Her first lessons in the English
language were in school in Pitts
burgh. and by the time she was a
sophomore in high school she was
herself teaching an English class
during a month's absence of the
teacher!
sThis astounding quickness at
language is revealed by the fact
that in addition to English, Hen
riette speaks Czechoslovakian, Ger
man, several Slavic dialects, Rus
sian, and some French.
The fever to scribble came upon
her as a freshman in a Pittsburgh
high school, and so well did she
do at it that one-third of the
money for her first year at Ore
gon, she admits, was her accumu
lation of essay-contest prize
money!
She broke into feature writing
for the Emerald almost as soon as
she hit the campus, at that time
quite unheard-of for a freshman,
and has been doing interviewing
and such ever since. Her second
year, Henriette started writing
canlpus society for the Oregonian.
She soon snared a regular job with
the University news bureau under
George Godfrey, and this year han
dles all campus news for the Ore
gonian a job which keeps her on
the watch every hour of the day.

Use of Daring
Color Combines
Here’s a challenge for all you
disciples of dame fashion.
Do you dare go to church Easter
Sunday in a tailored outfit in navy
blue and green? Or show the
campus that you're up-to-the-min
ute in your tan knee-length, cam
el’s hair coat, gold colored silk
dress and bright orange leather
gloves and purse to match ? But
this season you can wear all those
combinations at which feminine
hands have been raised in horror
before. They’re smart. Vogue,
that epitome of authenticity, puts
its stamp upon three-color com
binations, and strange, two-color
ones such as navy blue and pur
ple.
Color above anything else this
season is to be taken into first
consideration when planning your
wardrobe, for the goal at which to
aim is the making of a perfect pic
ture.
Three-color combinations pro
vide interesting changes. For in
stance, a light blue coat, a pink
dress with a stripe of white per
haps, and accessories of the new
dubonnet color, would be a charm
ing outfit. Light grey accessories
are being worn with the warm gold
colored yellow in the dress or vice
versa. One of the most chic of
evening gowns shown recently by
a leading stylist was a navy blue
lace over a green satin slip.

Paris Initiates
Tunic Jackets
As Spring Note
By MARGUERITE KELLY
‘‘Anything Goes” as far as new
clothes are concerned. Choose the
type that suits you best, and it is
sure to be right. Paris dressmak
ers seem to have disagreed heartily
this season, with the result that
everyone should be satisfied.
Jackets, for instance, may be
flared like parachutes or severely
straight. Tunic jackets are very
smart. All jackets must be
knuckle length. The bolero, a
Spanish influence, and the tight
basque jacket are two of the varia
tions which have "caught.”
Waist lines and shoulders may
be high or low according to your
whim, but most couturiers favor
the high, lifted line. Mainbochcr
favors flared skirts and even uses
taffeta petticoats for extra full
ness. Most of the other houses
feature the comparatively straight
skirt, however. Vionnet sticks to
bias skirts; Chanel and Molyneux
both make very straight skirts,
and Patous’ appear slim although
they have pleated gode'ts.
Five types of tunics are in
vogue, and each is equally correct
to wear. Maggy Rouff uses Cos
sack flares with long sleeves, high
necks, and tight bodices. Full bal
let-skirted tunics are the pet of
Mainbocher. Some are very
straight and Chinese in spirit.
Schiaparelli uses high-waisted tun
ic skirts that are suspiciously pre
war. A slight flare on tailored
tunics is Lanvin’s inspiration.
Pleats, much in evidence, are in
various forms. Pin pleats, accor
dian, and box pleats are rampant
at present.
New details which mark one as
“in the know” are shorter evening
skirts in front and ankle length
dinner dresses; shorter sleeves to
show off the new bright gloves;
yokes, white ruffs, and ornamental
seams. All daytime dresses are
quite a bit shorter.
