From ail appearances the “pow
ers above” are smiling on the U.
of Oregon and its junior class this
week, and planning to do their
share to make Junior Weekend
enjoyable. It is apparent now, that
the sun will shine. Nothing we
could imagine, at thi3 point,
would be more dismal than at
tending a campus luncheon to
morrow noon dressed in raincoats,
rubbers, rain hats (even our old
favorite), and winding our way
through the lines to receive a
soggy ham sandwich, moist cook
ies, and dripping salad.
Then to stand under the trees
and watch the queen be crowned
beneath the shelter of an umbrel
la, and the princesses standing
around in hip boots—well, it just
doesn’t add rip. Even Jupiter
couldn't imagine such a sight, so
the sun will continue to shine.
(we hope!)
Eesides, it’s “Springtime in Vi
enna,” and although Oregon has
been known to enjoy many a
spring rain, who’s ever heard of
a ‘ Viennese mist.”
Pinafores Promoted
Pinafores have really taken
the campus by storm. Coed com
ments on the dresses vary. Some
say they realize the style is not
too flattering to the figure, but
that they’re fun to wear anyway;
while others remark they’re be
ing shown in all the well-known
fashion magazines: and still oth
ers look on them with comment
censored. It is a fnn-idea though,
and it's doing the trick to pro
mote the Weekend.
Swan Song
We look toward next week’s
Woman’s Page with sad tears iu
our eyes. It's the last page of the
year- and also our last job. For
Women Only will prepare a “swan
song" for the occasion and then
' duck out to give a new staff an
opportunity' to show its worth be
fore next tali.
