Margilee will be graduated from the v school of social science this year, leaving behind her an outstanding a record of high scholastic and activity achievements. i: Energetic and vital, a deep red sweater emphasizing her vivid dark * eyes and hair and olive skin, Margilee said her college life had been a very satisfying, and regrets only that she had not had time to accom- i . . ... __t JHJ.NII lil’Jit-, aim tu train iiiwm:. She became senior class presi dent this year when David Morris left school, and the job, she stated, has kept her busy, and has been fun, although she maintained that her only contribution was in heckl ing people she appointed to differ ent jobs, F'inal F,\ams Move Regarding the recent move to do away with final examinations for seniors, or to lighten the pres sure put on them the last few weeks of school, Margilee said: "The faculty made no attempt to see what we were trying to do. They picked the petition apart, pointed out words and statements, and objected to the way it was drafted, not to what we were try ing to do. What we were trying to do was to make some change in the final examination system, be cause we felt that the seniors real ly did not need the exams. At least* we felt the pressure of term papers, theses and so on, shoidd he lightened." Margilee feels, however, that some such a move will be made by the faculty. Two outstanding accomplish ments which have been achieved since she entered school, she feels, are the reorganization of ASUO, and the increasing student body enthusiasm displayed by the stu dents. Dikes New System She praised the new ASUO set up, with its division into athletic and educational activity depart ments, and felt it had done a great deal to straighten out the whole activity situation, giving a defi nite center and headquarters for activities. "It is too bad that we will lose Ralph Scnomp next year,” she said, “he has had a hard job to fill, and has done splendidly with it. He has just begun to get things in order, and this year’s concert series has shown what excellent service he can do for the Univer sity.” The increase in student body spirit and enthusiasm, Margilee be lieves, has been due largely to the efforts of Gib Schultz. She remark ed that the student body faces a much more difficult situation than it did when she was in school, be cause of the installation of the op tional fee system. This situation, she said, was a hard one for the University to meet, but she was confident that with increased con sciousness of the student body to wards its duties, soon there will be again 80 and 90 per cent of the students members of the A SI TO. Record of Activity Margilee lias been widely active on the campus, working as YWCA membership chairman and treas urer, as Kwama and Thespian, and as a Mortar Eoard. She is a mem ber of Alpha Kappa Delta, soci ology honorary, and Pi Lambda Theta, women's education honor ary. Last year she was chairman of the campus lunchefln during Junior Weekend, and she remarked that she had enjoyed that job the most of any she had done at col lege though it had been the most work. Besides all these, she has received excellent grades. Margilee feels that the most valuable thing she has got out of her activities is the wide circle of friends she has made among the students and faculty members. This, she feels, is something that will endure after she has left school, while many other things will be forgotten, or become only memories. f e e f t f i 0 l 1 c i e 8 c c c I c c c X 1 Wants to Teach 2 After she leaves school, Margilee plans to teach social science and | ^ English, preferably in a small," school. e “If I like teaching, I’ll stay with y it, if I don’t, I'll go into social work," she has decided. I Margilee pointed out that the t faculty advisor system was a good t thing for the freshman or sopho- £ more to become acquainted with, instead of accepting haphazard ad- 1 vice from fellow students, who t don’t always know what they are s talking about. She would advise underclass girls to plan their s course with a careful eye towards i what they wish to do after they s leave school, or they will watte much time. it l Dedn Allen Speaks on [ ‘Education in Europe’ s Speaking before a joint meeting of the grade school and high school teachers’ association of Cottage Grove, Dean Erie W. Allen, of the University school of journalism, compared European and American schools under the topic, "Education in Europe.’’ The dean’s remarks dealt princi pally with student preparation for life in several schools and univer sities, both in England and on the continent, which he visited during his recent trip abroad.

Evidence of this feeling i the crop of colored bows for the air that have made their appear nce recently. A trick of individuality and ori inality is a coed's most valuable ishion guide. A little daring, an ye for what is new, and an un rring knowledge of her own type, lus knowing just what sort of dings she can wear are necessary 3r the adventurer in the style leld. Coeds Individual Margaret carlson, piqu nt, olive skinned freshman, wears er dark hair curled back from er forehead, and pins two white aisies with yellow centers into : at the top. It's one way to chievo the “fresh as a daisy" look nd Margaret does it. GNAN GOODSELL, tall and ark, wears that most trying of olors, purple, superbly, in a wool ampus dress. For true individuality, TONI ,UCAS is outstanding. Attractive omfort is the keynote of Toni's ampus outfits, and she walks joy usly in low-heeled oxfords and hort socks. White shirts ad rib ons in her hair give her a young, resh, liltie-girl look. Two of a Kind The CLEVELAND twins, IANCY and JEAN, wear their old-brown hair in an attractively imple style, brushed back from heir foreheads, and curled at the nds, adorned with little colored ows. LEILANI KROLL was striking t the Griff Williams’ dance, with white suit and a lei of scarlet lowers accenting her dark hair nd skin. GLADYS BATTLESON wears er blond hair curled back from er face, and sticks gay sprigs of pring flowers into the top curl. Distinctive and becoming is the leekly brushed hair of petite iELEN MITCHELL, and it ends ttractively in a neat roll. Warm and friendly, the smile f PEGGY VERMILLION is indi .Tual for its pleasantness, and per onality. It should remind every oed what an asset a glowing mile can be.
