Chance Similar to Leap Year
In Reverse Open to Men Tonight
In the early hours of this evening the annual Mortar Board hall
will breeze into being, and from then on the burden of how to be a
good date shifts gently over to masculine shoulders.
Anytime now he can begin saying, “If she sends me gardenias
I’ll scream!”
This is his one big chance to keep her waiting and make her
uua it. Now he can empty his dresser drawer into her coat pocket,
and transform her into a veritable
walking check room. If he wants
to order a $1.50 dinner so that he
can dine in the manner to which
he has become accustomed it’s up
Lto her to order a hamburger to
,make up the deficit,
i This is his night to wrinkle his
nose and pout if she suggests do- (
ing something he doesrr’t particu
larly want to do. “Id 3ust
loooovvve to trade dances with
her,” is his line tonight.
If he feels like making it later
than 12:15 it’s up to her to con
imraran
, vince him that beauty and sleep
are synonymous.
Yes, sir, anyway you want t'o
look at it, it’s the maid’s night out
for an aggravating evening.
WILMOT TO TAKE FINAL
