For Women Only By MAKOE FINNEGAN Peace and quiet are again set tling down on the campus, fol lowing one of the greatest home coming celebrations in the his tory of the University. Yes, one even finds students reading books in the library these nights instead of wandering about looking for prospective dates . . . and people are even awake in the browsing room now (I watched until I saw someone turn the page of a book). In general, people are trying to catch up on studies before Thanksgiving vacation, the next event to plan for this term. We've heard of several students who holiday tomorrow and have it last are going to begin the four-day through all of next week. That's as bad as weekends beginning on Thursdays and lasting until Tues days. Oregon’s Winehell Tt’nt it fun to watch lil’ .Tack Bryant collecting '‘dirt’’ for his 8-ball column in the College Side. In case you’ve missed him, he’s the cute little fellow in the bright plaid jacket with the wad of copy paper in one hand and a camera in the other. We mention him be cause we'd hate to see him miss out on publicity just because he writes the column!

Many Pledge Dances Dominate Full Weekend Dress of the Week Pretty blonde JANET GOR ESKY stopped the show when she appeared at the homecom ing dance in a gay stop-red dance dress. A straight skirt, flared in back with just the suggestion of a bustle, topped by a tricky bodice, buttoning down the back, made Janet's dress an ideal date dress. The new shirred elbow length sleeves and a touch of gold costume jewelry at the neck and wrist added a final note of smartness to the cos tume. today’s epistle short to keep peace with “Steve” at the press. But first T must air my grief the ad staff of this illustrious paper is so ambitious they have a sell-out every week for space on the wo men’s page, which seldom gets a chance to really shine for the gen erous advertisers due to lack of space. There’s no justice! * * * Happy Thanksgiving but don’t eat too much turkey! Special rate on the Emerald, $2.25 for the balance of the year.

I haven’t seen my shower cap since j September 30 when Betty-—one of our dear upperclassmen—admired it so much. Well, down to more serious things. I don’t see how I’ll ever get ready for this faculty dinner to night. I have been assigned, under Betty, for door duty, and I haven't the least idea what they want me to do. Shall I just open the door and smirk at them, or shall I hus tle the minto the living room and then dash off with their coats? Honestly, I’m so worried, I didn’t even enjoy my ham barbecue when we cut history this afternoon. iriary maaen sareiy Gosh, if anyone finds this, think of the demerits! I’d better hide you in the bottom right hand drawer under my pajamas this time, in stead of under my stockings. For some reason, no one has tried to borrow my “stop red’’ PJ’s with the bright green dragons on them. Do you suppose they don’t like them ? Gee, there goes the first buzzer, and they’re yelling at me to hurry up and get downstairs. ’Course, they aren’t even dressed yet—fact, my roommate said she just passed Betty on her way home. Objects to Dirty Work This heaping big responsibilities on a freshman is even worse than the house duties we have to do. They’re an indignity—fancy moth er asking me to empty daddy’s cigarette ashes. I don’t see how I can welcome all these faculty members, when they don’t even know me. I don’t see why they don’t let freshmen pick out the ones they want . . . the up perclassmen just sit and apple pol ish all evening and we have to feed them and talk and . . . Oh, there goes the buzzer again. Bye, now. Three Shutouts (Continued From Page Three) man with that never-say-die spirit.
