For Women Only By MARGE FINNEGAN ■—--’ First of all this week we must brag about our fan letter (after all we may never have another) in which our devoted reader stated he no longer lived from week-end to week-end—but from Thursday to Thursday for the Emerald women's page. Hmn! what a stup id existence! But any kind of fan mail is appreciated as long as it doesn't cost us anything. \Ve Inked ’Em “With Fear and Trembling", and stepping where angels fear to tread, may we now venture our very meek opinion on the rally committee. Maybe we're wrong, but we thought they did o.k. last Saturday. Best in years, we'd say —but that’s not a very strong compliment. Anyway we thought they’d improved, but maybe we'd better drop it right here. . . . Band Orchids And while compliments are be IT’S PENNEY’S FOR CAMPUS CLOTHES Smart Companions for Jackets and Sweaters FALL SKIRTS *3.98 A pure wool frabardine in rich, deep colors for fall!

AT THE PFNNETY’^ GREATER^ Annual A VIS Carnival Set for Saturday Night Riding, Shooting Activities Liked By Barbara Stallcup By CORRINE WIGNES She can ride and shoot with the best of them, but she doesn't have a cowboy waiting for her at home. Barbara Stallcup. popular brunette coed came to the University from her home on "Big Springs” cattle ranch in Montague, California be cause she had always had a yen for a college with ivy-climbing the walls of old buildings. She thinks the California college buildings are too ing dished out, “Orchids” to the “brain” behind the band. Sitting in a row of senior girls, we all found ourselves gasping and star ing in amazement. It was wonder ful! The group was unanimous in its approval, saying this is the first time since we entered the in stitution that we felt like watching instead of weeping when the band performed. Maybe the drum ma yoress helped their spirit—what ever it was, long may it last! And speaking of the drum ma yoress—Mary Anderson deserves a big hand. She performed beauti fully and wins the women’s vote. We admire her for it and agree with the person who said, “Any one who didn't like her must be jealous.” Ready for the C'arnival From all reports the AWS carni val Saturday night should be the biggest and best ever. Everyone seems to approve of the change to fall term. Wish we could hide under a gypsy shawl in the Mystic Minno's booth — lots of things should be revealed in the fortune telling business. ii« IHMIAI.II A Four Star Musical Attraction Jascha Heifitz in “THEY SHALL HAVE MUSIC’’ and Joel Andrea Walter McCrea Leeds Brennan plus “THE ESCAPE'’ This is a picture full of excitement SONJA HENIE TYRONE POWER “Second Fiddle” a—n—:n ‘Grand Jury Secrets’ Barbizon slips are a college re ^ quirement, and what can equal - those simply perfect Barbizon pajamas for dormitory chic?

MILLER'S EUGENE s NEWEST DEPARTMEN T STORE 8TU Willamette Phone 6c0 moaermsuc, uui says ure^uu s University is just like the colleges you read about in books. Very con genial, and a fluent speaker, Bar bara is twenty years old and five feet three and one-half inches tall. Attends National Convention As president of her sorority, she attended the national Alpha Xi Delta convention last summer; visited both fairs enroute and also the Pendleton Roundup. Although not especially interested in ath letics, she learned to ride well on the ranch, and acquired accurate marksmanship ability on the Uni* versity rifle team, of which she was publicity manager last year and is secretary this year. Barbara's executive ability is be ing well tested by her position as co-chairman of the AWS carnival to be held Saturday night. She is a member of Phi Theta Upsilon, junior women's honorary, and trea surer of the heads of houses or ganization. Last year she belonged to Kwama, sophomore women’s service honorary. Headed for Alaska Someday Barbara is going to work on a newspaper in Alaska (she hopes). Just why she chose Alaska is difficult to say. She wants a career but says when she marrys, she will mix the two and continue her work. She will do the housework and cooking, and her dream man, an intelligent athlete, with a good personality, will do the dishes! View on Pins “The idea of 'planting pins' doesn't mean enough to girls on this campus,” says Barbara. “Al most any girl can get a pin, but I think if she takes it, it should mean something besides the mere fact that she is wearing it.” A fascinating hobby, the study of people, is one of our coed’s chief interests. She develops her own personality by making new friends and knowing lots of people. Barbara stated that.besides jour nalism she likes art courses. She dislikes high soprano opera singers. As background for her journal istic Career, Barbara worked two summers on the Siskiyou News in Yreka and also was active on the Emerald staff during her first two years at the University. She re ceived a state scholarship for her freshman year. Syposium Members To Have Publicity Pictures Taken The 34 members of the men’s symposium group will meet at the University news bureau to have pictures taken for publicity pur poses in Oregon newspapers Thurs day noon, W. A. Dahlberg, assist ant professor of speech and direc tor of the group, announced Wed nesday. The symposium members are di vided into two subject groups; 1(1 of them are planning to speak on propaganda, the others will speak on the distribution problem of con sumable goods. James L. C. Ford, assistant pro fessor of journalism, will speak to the first group on “Propaganda" tonight. Dress of the Week Something- new in hue—aut- ■ umn moss green—was worn by BETTY McNIECE, in an at tractive one-piece downy wool sport dress. A rather unusual treatment of neckline and sleeves was cre ated by the heavy over-lapping stitch which trimmed the edges, collar and cuffs. Very practical was the skirt with flaring pleats, also stitch ed with an over-lapping cord. Diagonal gathers across each shoulder gave the bodice a pleasing draped effect. Leather buttons fastened the dress down the front. Many Houses Have Exchange Desserts Changing the order of things a bit, Gamma hall will act as host Thursday evening at a preference dinner dance. Also holding a des sert in honor of their preferences Thursday evening will be Phi Gam ma Delta.

Poetry By MARY Ii BOOTH Exhibit A i Those little faults you have eon 1 J i cealed, Alas, are too plainly revealed By your wastebasket! The eyes of friends have quickly spied The flunks on tests you tried to hide In your wastebasket. The bills you really meant to pay Somehow always find their way To the wastebasket. Letters you left unreplied Blithely peep from o'er the side Of your wastebasket. A broken diet is revealed By candy wrappers ill-concealed In your wastebasket. If you would keep your secrets hid, Then heed me, and attach a lid To your wastebasket. Red Leaves and White The winter was made to study in But autumn was made for play. It’s hard to read all those dry, old books On a lovely October day. The trees have showered the street with leaves Of scarlet and brown. Just look! Now, honestly, don't they far sur pass The white leaves that fill your book? Ode to the Carnival I’ve searched my mind so many times To find a word that really rhymes With “the carnival.” My poem's sure to be a wcss If 1 try adding AWS To "the carnival.” So may I say, though this is trite, Words fail me when I try to write of the carnival. But anyway, rhyme or no rhyme, You’re sure to have a darn good time At the carnival. Head the Emerald for news of the campus.
