U0Males An alyze Dates who Rate By ADRIENNE FLURRY What makes a girl popular? What causes a boy to put onp girl on his rate list and from there to his date list and leave another one off? It ocrurred to us that the ones who knew the dark reasons best were those popular campus men who did the rating. So we asked them, and they said: Ken Christienson: Not particularly through beauty, but more through an ever-ready "hello” friendly spirit, what is known as “personality” and an ability to be congenial and — -----——— make her escort believe she is hav ing a good time. J. Wesley Sullivan: I should say understanding, a cooperative spirit, and general amiability are indis pensable in a popular girl. Frank Calhoun: Feminine per sonality, generous and not grasp ing, sweet but not coy, healthy This gift of sparkle and gayety holds a dram of Blue Grass Perfume. $2.00 I U. &. Coi IUGSNC OWNED. WITH NEW YORK BUYING CONNECTION <inu wiiiurnumr i aim i uian tiful. Dick Turner: For a girl to be popular with me she must possess three qualities: attractiveness, en thusiasm, and intelligence. Bob Whitely: T'aint the looks. It’s the personality that counts. Intelligence (a moderate amount) and a good sense of humor are the first assets of popularity. Larry Reid: Personality and en thusiasm. We concluded our questioning by asking Don Hargis, one of the University’s professors what he thought. He replied with a grin that, "a good line will make any girl popular." Note he said good. After close observation, we be lieve that the all-wise masculine sex put those qualities first which all girls can develop. Actual beau ty gets little or no rating at all. Personality, intelligence and a sense of humor rale high. Every body has a chance. By developing those characteristics, you are not only popular with men but with everyone else as well. It seems to us the men deserve a plenty big cheer for having such good judg ment.

You really ought to do your Christmas shop lifting early this season. t- * * Have you been out on the cam pus of a foggy night lately, one of those that feels like you’re being subjected to a cold steam bath? In case you happen to be walk ing on the pathways between the library and Condon about 10 p.m. when the mists really descend, look at the telephone pole oppo site Westminster house on Kin caid street. It’s an unearthly sight. You see the pole with a street lamp behind it creating a bizarre shadow. The base of the telephone pole seems broadened, the sides of the shadow converge at the top of the pole, and then spread out like fingers reaching into the night. A good picture of it wouldn’t have any trouble winning a con test for strange photographs. While we’re still on the walk between Condon and the libe (no we didn’t say walk) it’s rather in triguing to try to figure out the design of those pathways, and why. A history professor suggested that they were rather similar to the walks at Versailles. But we've got a different theory. Several years ago, when we were very young, our favorite win ter sport in Baker was playing Fox and Geese in the snow. You kick the snow aside to make a big outer circle, and beat little paths into the center. The fox lives in the center of a circle and chases all you little geese, who run screeching about the pathways. Our would-be Versailles walks could be ideal for Fox and Geese if we only had some snow. We sigh longingly every time we cross them. Oh well, maybe it’ll snow at home for Christmas. Why Ski? Lithe Moidci Finds It Nice To Stop By JOEY CHRYSTALL Maida was hurrying across the campus. She remarked to herself that it is quite cold these winter mornings, then she observed beneath some tan gabardine sleeves a delightful pair of mittens, embroidered with flowers, birds, and some kind of animal, possibly reindeer. The natural result was that she thought “Those would be nice for skiing.” Other results were that all day she saw mental movies of a lithe Kennel Speaks As Coed Sports Doggy Je welry Shirley Wilson records her favor ites on her coat lapel. Three black discs with Woody Herman, Jimmy Dorsey, and Glen Gray written on them, dangle from Tom Thumb drum-sticks. Barbara Hampson is in the dog-house with her dog col lar bracelet and belt done in bright jewels. Bubbling over is Betty .lane Biggs in her necklace of di aphanous balls in circus colors. Se quins to a lovely evening is Helen Holden in her black molded formal with the sparklers on the jacket. Helen Angell's new green plaid suit lights the torches in her red hair. Nancy Gardner glides across the dance floor in her white for mal with the many pleats and the jacket, smooth as a white sail. A Grecian princess is Emma Verdur nien in her red flowing gown with the gold tunic. The flowers on Lulu Pall’s formal, with Lulu away from the wall; they're big and wide-eyed on a white back ground.
