Reading Lends Effect
Or Even Am usemen t
By JOEY CIIRYSTATiIj
Sometime's you may wish you were curled up with a good hook when
someone saw you, to produce an effect of some kind of intelligence, or
rinyway, an EFFECT. We have a list here of some books, some of
which we have read, more of which we have not which you might like
to use, while waiting for this effect to he produced.
If you've ever read any of H. S. C.’s poems on the front page of the
Journal, you might like to look ar
a collection of them, illustratedwith
drawings by the author, Harry
Rilleck Crannatt. The title of the
hook, also of the first poem in it,
is “The Pied Typer of Shrdln
Etaoin,” inspired the odd combin
ations of letters sometimes col
lected by the men who run the type
machines.
Thurher Draws, Too
Another volume illustrated with
drawings by the author is “The
Male Animal,” the play by James
Thurber and Elliott Nugent. An
interesting thing about these
drawings is that Thurber actually
used them to help direct the play.
The Chinese philosopher, Lin Yu
tang, has now written a novel
about his countrymen. “Moment in
Peking” deals with the conflict be
tween the older generation's ad
herence to the customs of their an
cestors and the young people’s
adoption of new standards and
ideals for living.
A good example of an Ameri
can career woman is Clare Boothe.
Interest in her has been especial
ly notable since the publication of
her account of “Europe in the
Spring.” We have read articles
about her lately which would like
to insinuate that perhaps she does
n't write her own stuff. It would
be interesting to read her plays:
“Margin for Error,” "The Women,”
and “Kiss the Boys Goodbye,”
muttering to yourself all the while
“But did Clare Boothe REALLY
write this?”
Fashion Is Spinach
Another career woman in print is
Elizabeth Hawes. The head of a
large designing and dressmaking
establishment, Miss Hawes has put
many of her experiences in “Fash
ion Is Spinach.” This work has a
new slant on fashion in that it
dares to hint that perhaps fashion
does not have to be the power in
the retail market that it is.
And if you have to wait really
a long time for your audience to
appear, you might consider leafing
through “Gone With the Wind."
Tt seems to have kept some people
amused for some time. Of course,
your statement, “I have read ‘Gone
With etc.,” should not be expect
ed to produce the effect it would
have in a former time.

For New Things
With spring in the air, it’s
just the time to get a new jack
et-coat. This year they are a
new length — 25 inches, and
promise to fill all campus
needs. Hadley’s selection is in
biege and natural jackets with
the new swing tucked backs.
From 12.95 to 16.95.
In the Perspective
If you've been wondering where in town you can
find a “smooth" beige jacket, go to Beards. The
material is a lovely soft light weight wool in a chev
ron weave, and the beige is a good “mixing'' shade.
The same style fitted jacket comes in all of the light
pastels and p'aids. . , 7.95.
Just A Hint
It’s important to keep a
fresh complexion when you
meet people all day, and at Tif
funy-Duvis is a grand silk strip
ed bag complete with all of the
essential Dorothy Gray cosmet
ics, to keep you looking grand
all day. The bags include a
pancake makeup with sponge,
a cream rouge, powder, and a
cold cream for $1,00. The ma
terial is in different colors and
makes a lovely purse for beach
use.
Worth Mentioning
If your fing
ers are nimble
you'll want
to start sew
ing for spring
and the best
place to find
materials is at the Broadway
where they have a new stock
of seersucker, deminity, crepes,
chambreys, and spring woolens.
Prices for cotton material is
from 23 to 49c; spun rayons—
39 to 98c; and spring woolens—■

Books, books, books, aren’t they
lovely thing's? This week's wom
en's page would like to think so.
For instance there is a lot of lit
tle known knowledge (thank heav
en) about dieting in a clever lit
tle volume called “1060 And All
That,” by Sellar and Yeatman
(Blue Ribbon Books, Inc., $1).
“Take the Typical Case of Tan
gerines. The really valuable part
is the skin,” say the authors, “and,
of course, the silver paper; while
most beneficial of all is, perhaps,
the splendid natural ungranulated
crate itself. And yet there are
thousands of people who quite cas
ually hack off all this invaluable
casing and throw it away!”
“Most people go through life
eating the wrong food. The effect
is disastrous: imperceptibly, igno
miniously, but inevitably, they be
come the wrong people.”
Woman Has Much to I .earn
“Woman, too, has much to learn:
for instance, she must ... be pre
pared, like the insects, to exter
minate the husband the moment
he begins to drone. It is the only
way.”
You might also like the recipes
these authors offer. And you might
not. Here's a sample:
“Banana Surprise”
"Take one sweet, black, over
ripe banana.
Make a slit in the outer tubing.
Out the banana.
Stuff with cotton wool, sew up
tightly and serve, scar downwards.

Madeline Chin
Draws Spotlight
In Exotic Formal
Stealing the searchlight at the
Senior ball was Madeline Chin in
her exotic black and silver formal.
A stiff black patterned net hung
over her solid silver whirl of skirt
and her black shiny hair was
combed up high; Mary Word had
the air of a Viennese waltz in her
white swirling dress with the se
quins; Aldine Gates was also a
* lady in white, her gown was fit
| ted and smooth with an embroid
ered jacket top; Betty Lou Brug
man was delicious in pink and
black—hers was a jacket formal—
the jacket pink and the full skirt,
black.
Bright at her studying is
Joyce Freed in her pique tailored
blouse splashed with big vermil
ion flowers and gay colored leaves;
Elaine Quinn studies in brown—
it’s a brown plaid suit, fitting and
snappy. Jean Spearow has been
ski-i-in around studying in one
of the new Christie sweaters. Ftein
I deer gallop about the shoulders;
I it's knitted in blue and white yarn.

The
Male
Box
t
By BUCK BCCHWACH
(Woman's Page Correspondent) ,
Books. Dey is great tings. Books 1
is what ya git ejication from.
That is the definition not given
in Webster's but in the gangster's
associated almanac, which lists .
the public enemies in the order in
which they are expected to be 1
bumped off, and a host of other
such pertinent material.
Collitch kids, that is University
of Oregon students, have their own
definition:
“Books are those things in the j
library what lie all term gather- ,
ing the choice kinds of dust, then '
just before final exam week are
exhumed, flicked page by page,
cussed at thoroughly for the'ir
vagueness, and then thrown down
with disgust.” You can’t win,
they’re too complicated—they have
words of two and even three syl
lables.
An experienced male can waft
himself into the library, glance at
a book the gal's reading, and im
mediately know if he should try a
little wooing that might lead up
to a pin planting in the very near
future—maybe in five or six
months.
If tne gars reaamg a mystery
story, our hero knows immediate
ly that the female is good at solv
ing riddles, likes to figure out puz
zles, and would be just the kind of
a wife that would not go into his
pockets when he comes home late
at night.
Instead she would confront him
with a detailed report of his ac
tivities, and demand the $32.50 he
won in the poker game when he
was supposed to be at the board of
directors’ hearing.
If, on the other hand, the gal
is reading something very heavy
like “How to Boss Your Family”
or "What to Do When Your Hus
band Comes Home Pickled,” he
knows at once that she is just the
right type of gal—for somebody
else.
Pretty girls with crossed legs
(did you ever see a pretty girl
without them crossed?) reading
such light tomes as “Gone With
the Wind” or “Anthony Adverse”
are the favorites of the average
male, however, and this is why.
If a pretty girl can patiently
wade through that much guff
without being tempted to turn to
the last chapter and find out the
score right away, she’s tops.
And besides, if she’s that patient,
she no doubt could sit through an
hour and a half alibi without get
ting very angry—without tossing
more than a year’s supply of china,
anyhow . . .
