What to do about open house—
that is the question. Campus com
ments, pro and con, have been go
ing around all week, but up till
now it remains "campus comment.”
.The question seems to be whether
or not the annual bunion derby is
a worthwhile event and should
continue for years and years as it
has been going on for the past
years and years.
THEY SAY!
The “pro” group contends that
open house is a very democratic
affair at which everyone meets ev
eryone else and dances until they
are worn out—but it's all in the
spirit of good fun. A freshman
stated it was lots more fun than
his sample of exchange desserts.
He says desserts are stiff and
freshmen are scared, whereas dur
ing open house he and his tong
brothers were able to cut loose and
enjoy life. They met lots and loffi
of beautiful coeds and are dated
up until spring Mortarboard. An
upperclassman said he had more
fun this year than ever before, be
cause he refused to use any stock
conversation—consequently every
thing was much better, and his
brain is not cluttered with names
of towns he never heard of where
Miss Coed happens to dwell and as
to her course major—who cares on
first meeting anyhow ?
AND THiEY SAY!
The "con” side maintains that
open house is a farce and the soon
er it is abandoned the better for
all concerned. They say the coed
from Podunk dances with the male
from Podunk and consequently the
ten-minute period is up before she

Helen Angell Is
Coed of the Week
By BETTY JANE THOMPSON
Ten o'clock at night should find most students with a little free
time 0:1 their hands. But not so for our attractive blue-eyed, red-haired
coed of the week, who is known as the "Emerald's Angell." Seated at
her desk marked "News Editor" in the Emerald shack. Helen Angell
turned from her typewriter, where one of the “top" stories was being
created, to be on the receiving end of an interview. However, it was
more than a half hour later before questions became few enough to
allow the interview to go on unin
terrupted.
Self-possessed, knowing what
she wants to say, and having the
ability to get it across, she was
introduced to prospective Emerald
reporters as their “boss” for the
year. It was only because they had
been on the staff last year that a
number of people knew her rise to
the responsible position on the up
per news staff had taken place dur
ing her first year on the campus.
Only a Sophomore
Entering as a freshman with a
two-year editorship of her eastern
Oregon high school paper behind
her, she “with fear and trembling”
asked for a beat on the paper.
Given a “test” beat, she was soon
assigned to one of the largest beats
on the campus and received spe
cial assignments in increasing
numbers.
Her outstanding journalistic
ability was recognized by others
than the Emerald staff and she
was introduced as one of the two
outstanding freshman women in
journalism at the Theta Sigma
Phi Matrix table.
In spite of the fact that Emer

aid workers practically live at the
shack, Helen became one of the
active workers in other campus
activities. As a result she holds
several responsible elective and ap
pointive offices this year.
Kwama Prexy
Heading the list is presidency of
Kwama, sophomore women's hon
orary. Another position she is
proud to hold is that of AWS re
porter, won from a field of several
competitors in last year's AWS
elections. She is also corresponding
secretary for the Panhellenic
group.
She has not picked a definite
type of work for her “after col
lege” years, but, “of course, I’ll
always be hanging around a news
paper office somewhere,” she said.
And her ambition is to work in
the East. She, herself, does not
know why—it's just been the East.
Giving a glimpse into her own
philosophy of life, she added that
she had two more years after this
one, so she would just explore a
little in the journalistic field be
fore deciding definitely. That's the
way it should be in all of life, she
said. “Why worry?” is her belief.

To eat her pie under the table,
But all did not go as intended.

Memo on Muscles
O tell me, did you ever fall
In love with a pair of shoulders?
Muscular, massive, powerful, pas

Swaggering pair of shoulders?

They’re seen together a couple of
times,
And love first flares, then smoul

And you can bet that she’s found

There's nothing above those shoul

And your pledging will never cause

Dress
of the Week
Virginia Doten—the lady in
red—stoplight red alpaca—stole
the show this week with her
lively campus dress.
Made along shirt waist lines
but with a full flared skirt, Vir
ginia's dress is ideal both for
classes and for dressier occa
sions. A novel elastic belt fas
tened with a leather buckle is
pulled through the two tailored
pockets in front. There’s a han
dy pocket at the shoulder and
buttons way down the front,
under cover of a stitched flap—
now you see them—now you
don’t. But you’ll be sure to no
tice Virginia in this snappy
campus outfit.

have come out all right in the end
without any worry, she declared.
Down at the shack after mid
night, writing stories, getting her
reporters to write their stories
right, several times rushing down
after social functions in a formal,
Helen is a student as well. Study
ing during the hours after mid
night, she has kept her grades
up to a three-point average.
Gold Seen
In Fall Idea
Of Jewelry
By DORIS MURPHY
It's been years since jewelry was
so important and so much a part
of fashion as it is this fall . . . pe
riod jewelry is predominant . . .
must be the “Gone With the Wind”
influence ... in fact copies of the
pieces worn by Vivien Leigh in
that picture can be obtained at one
of the local stores and it’s lovely
. . . all pearls, turquoises, and an
tique gold effect . . . gold is seen
everywhere almost to the exclusion
of silver . . . crystals are being re
vived and shades of grandmother’s
day are the jet necklaces which are
shown in colors as well as black
. . . one of the newest ideas is the
cuff bracelet . . . these are seen in
one of the better magazines worn
in pairs, one on each arm . . .
for sportswear on sweaters and the
like are the unusual grapes and
leaves, each a separate piece, and
strung together on a gold chain
. . . then there are the necklaces
of links which can be worn on any
type of dress or sweater . . . we
saw gold and green shell, bracelets
. . . after much walking something
that wasn’t gold . . .no, we could
n’t believe it either . . . but red and
green beads are displayed ... on
that simple black dress you wear
a pin with dangles ... to be dif
ferent don't place it at the neck,
but over on one side . . . for eve
ning are mesh bibs and also bows
of gold and velvet combination . . .
rings are mostly large with cameos
popular. . . .
