AtVS Applause
Among the AWS visitors here
this week were some very inter
esting girls. Coming from so
many different colleges afforded
opportunities to exchange nu
merous ideas, practices, and cus
toms with them. On the whole,
tor- convention was considered
quite a success, we hear. The Ore
gon girls worked hard to make it
what it was, too. and deserve to
be applauded.
Matching Matches

campus Raleigh representative,

Pinafores to Make
Weekend Colorful
By LOIS HULSER
The campus will look like a movie set during Junior Weekend
with all coeds in colorful pinafores fashioned from costumes of the
Viennese era. Checks, stripes, and plain colors are featured in these
dresses designed especially for the University of Oregon by a popular
California stylist as the official apparel for Junior Weekend. Prints
used are copies of haudblocked prints from Mexico and full skirts
give them the quaintness which will transform the campus into a
Viennese fairyland.
For the girl who can wear lots of frills a little polkadot number
is just made to order, it has two
very full ruffles over the shoul
der and is trimmed with white
law on the pockets.
Stripes Popular
One of the most popular pina
fares is a striped seersucker lr>
blue and white or red and white.
