Men Seek Dates
To Gamma Alpha
Chi Formal Ball
Portland Models Will
Display New Styles
At Spring Dance
With plenty of men about the
campus still dateless and unasked
for Saturday night’s “little Mor
tar Board,” the Gamma Alpha Chi
spring formal today neared its
semi-final stages of preparation as
-details concerning decorating,
programs, and fashion showings
occupied the attention of the dance
committee.
As the deadline drew near des
perate males threw frantic hints
at prospective dates and tried last
resort measures to get coy coeds
to pop the question. One group of
hopeless ones last night declared
they would stage a “brawl of their
own” in the event they were not
escorted onto the maple floor of
the Igloo Saturday night.
Newspaper Programs
Meanwhile the committee went
on with its groundwork, announc
ing that programs would be in
the form of newspapers, in keep
ing with the character of Gamma
Alpha Chi, which is a women’s
advertising honorary.
The fashion showing was anoth
er concern of the committee, which
was hard at work arranging for
the showing of spring fashions by
six regular models from Berg’s of
Portland and four, campus models,
to be announced at the dance.

Campus Bookies List Odds as Spring Horse-Play
i Fervor Rises; Long Shots, Also-Rans Numerous
(Taking an idea from the Texas Christian University Skiff,
the Emerald pari-mutuel “handicapper” has"“”listed odds on the
chances of various campus romances to last through spring term.
Although the “handicapper” will not “make any books” on
these dog-races, a few bets on various piggers will probably be
made at campus pool-halls.)
