Unique Dress
Worn by Coed
%
In Chatanooga
By ALYCE ROGERS
A coed at the University of
Chattanooga wore a hat composed
of one white lampshade, one bath
tub plug chain, one shoe lace, two
paper clips, and a skimpy bouquet
of artificial flowers, during all of
one day. The only impression She
created was the envious stare of;
a waitress in a restaurant.
—Hampden-Sydney Tiger.
Collegiana ...
People who live in glass houses
might just as well answer the
doorbell. —• Spring, when the
trees begin to leaf and so do
thoughts of study. — What kind
of corsage do you want ? Four
Roses. — Junior thinks a grass
widow is what you take on a hay-1
ride. — Silver and' Gold. Money
doesn’t make a fool out of a coed
nearly as often as a coed makes
money out of a fool.
-—New Mexico Lobo.
Higher Learning . . .
School days, school days,
Dear newfangled school days;
Fencing, eurythmics, and plastic
art,
Taught by the aid of a Binet chart;
I was a lad with a low I.Q.,
You were a maid with a minus
two,
Just what we learned we never
knew,
But that is a new-fangled way!
—“The Hawk.” I

Wild West Will
Reign Soon in
A WS Carnival
Jump up seven, come down
eight,
Swing your partner* like a gate.
, Rattle your spurs,
And trail your heifers,
i And all stampede.
With the calls of the square
dance and the strains of the cow
i boy band, the little pioneer town
of Eldorado comes into existence
for one night of revelry in the
rambunctious western spirit.
Along main street the doors of
the gambling houses, the saloons,
the barber shops, the bank, and
the shooting gallery are thrown
wide open for the frontier cele
bration.
And Eldorado does come into
existence April 23, when the
i AWS sponsors its anual carnival
in McArthur court.
Business houses will be op
erated by University living or
ganizations, and music, in the old
and new manner, will be supplied
by Carl Rooen and orchestra.
Council Sets Plans
To 'Boost Oregon'
Dean, Coed Notables
Will Initiate Policy
In Portland
Plans to increase the Univer
sity’s enrollment next year are be
ing made by the new Pan-Hel
lenic council, according to infor
mation from Patsy Taylor, newly
chosen president of the group.
A “Boost Oregon” campaign is
being planned by members of the
council. Next. Wednesday Dean
Hazel Schwering, with Patsy Tay
lor, Elisabeth Stetson, Gayle Bu
chanan, and several more girls as
yet not chosen will go to Port
land to talk to the Portland al
umni about the new policy.
University students will be en
couraged under the boosting cam
paign to invite guests to see the
campus buildings and set-up and
entertain them at the houses, Miss
Taylor asserted, not only as rush
ees but as possible Oregon stu
dents.
Other plans being made by the !
new council include a revision of I
winter and spring term rushing1
rules.
The new Panhellenic council1
took office the first week in April
at the first meeting of the group

NYA QUESTIONNAIRES DUE

have not returned their ques
tionnaires are requested to do so
at once. Those who have lost or
mislaid their copy may obtain an

Frosh Coalition Meets
Disaster; Blocs Reign
The frosh coalition, heralded as a political.“cure-all” early this
week, was shattered yesterday when party organizers, boring from
within, split the class into two distinct blocs and pushed up the
barriers for spring term “horse-trading.”
Art Hannifin and Wally Rossman rallied support for a Sigma
Chi, Phi Delt, ATO bloc. Each was maneuvering for bloc support
in the race for soph class presidency. Stan Steiger held the position
of “number one map” in the Sigma Nu-Kappa Sig party.
The coalition split evolved into tw'O blocs, formed around a few’
houses. The support of either group among other houses remained
indefinite test night.
In spite of the “rebel” bloc formation, it was believed possible
last night that a third bloc might form from the houses remaining
in the one-time coalition.
