Betty Lost 'Em
If anybody notices a small string
of pearls kicking about, Betty Kel
ler would be interested in hearing
about them.
They are the small add-a-pearl
type on a gold chain. Miss Keller
values them as a sentimental gift
from her father.
‘ Betty has advertised for them,
put the police on their trail, and
worried frantically. She can be
reached at the Alpha Phi house
or through the journalism office.
Isn’t there a pearl diver in the

What Attraction
Have Cards And
Coffee Houses?
Just as a sort of Callup poll,
it might be amusing to find out
just how many of the people
who perch about in the various
local coffee houses playing
bridge—you know, game, in
volves cards- honestly haven't
anything better to do.
The fascination of the endless
combinations possible in 02 in
dividual pieces of pasteboard is
admittedly inevitable in speci
mens of the human race, but
somehow or other, when four
said persons get through, what
have they to show for an after
noon's hard mental work? Yes,
a beautiful glow of satisfaction
that somebody did for maybe
didn't) trump the ace and con
sequently someone was awfully
annoved, and someone else was
All rieased and Happy.
Endless, Ton
Bridge is a bit on the endless
side, too, and certainly lacks the
crisp verve of a game of poker
or a round of Twenty-One.
Twenty-One always has the vir
tue of making the players feel
like Western GAMBLERS, and
pleasantly wicked, for no good
reason, and stud poker produc
es the same emotion. Also, nei
ther game limits the crowd to
four. Four people may have fun,
but six or eight can have even
more.
Then, bridge discourages the
fine art of conversation, not that
that is a new idea, but still, it
DOES! Maybe no one present
has anything really worth hear
ing to say, but there's no harm
in saying it.
Oh, well, everybody for miles
will continue to mull over bridge
hands for hours anyway, and
manage to push aside all their
good intentions 'to go study
grimly. Still, studying now and
again never really hurts the
GPA!

Leighton and Betty
Declare Bridge War
Ry TOF.Y CHRYSTALT,
"T think maybe* T should learn how to play bridge,” T mused into
my roke, innocently unaware that my statement would be accepted
as anything other than an impersonal comment on amusements of the
day. Too late I realized that it had not been accepted in this mannei
when I saw the piercing gleam in the eyes of Leighton and Betty,
across from me. Cursing my stu-.
pidity, X remembered that Betty
and Leighton were habitual bridge
players who were usually, after
the manner of bridge players, howl
ing about for a fourth. I was to
be an innocent victim to their in
sane greed for pleasure!
What System*?
I^eighton pounced first, “Of
course, you'll want to decide on
your system first.”
Betty followed quickly with
“Yes, your system makes all the
difference.”
“Oh yes, system,” T said.
I could see that this would not
be accepted as an adequate an
swer by Betty’s look of extreme
patience. In the tone of one lead
ing a little child she explained,
"One can play bridge by either the
Sam Gordon or the Culbertson
system. Which do you want to
learn ?”
Thinking that I would put it
all in a nutshell, “which is the
best?" I queried brightly.
From the babble of sound which
ensued, the bitter looks distribut
ed impartially*bout the place, and
the precise way in which Betty
snapped the pencil point with
which she had been tracing the
grain of the table I gathered that
there was some difference of opin
ion on this point. I seemed to heai
Leighton telling me to learn a
system which is far simpler and
easier for the beginner, and that
Betty was saying that this is only
necessary for some of the less in
telligent strata of idiots.
Earnestly, Leighton!
Leighton asked me earnestly if
I wanted to spend the best years
of my life in some dim library,
poring over a musty tome by the
light of a guttering candle, learn
ing bridge rules. While Betty was
depicting my agonies at a bridge
table where all but me played Cul
bertson, having to confess that T
alone was an outcast, one set apart
from decent folk by a stigma
which could never’ be removed.
I began to be awed by my un
avoidable futures. Eyes glazed
with fright, silently I crept away,
and out into the reassuring sun
shine. Now that I am safely at
home, it rather amuses me to think
of them, still sitting there. The
part I like the best, though, is
when one of them sees the empty
bench across from him, begins to
put two and two together, and
gradually realizes that I'm not
there any more.

Small gardens of spring are
blooming all over the rampns;
clothes are getting lighter; beige,
apple green, pink, bine, and nil

Hit of the week: Mary Moon’s

Fashion Redoubled
Back in the fashion limelight
this season are redingotes and
that extra special appeal they
have for spring. Hadley’s have
a selection of the new print
dresses, which are going over
on their own merits, and a light
wool redingote completely lined
with the same print as the
dress. One of the very smart
est outfits for spring and sum
mer wear . . . 19.95.
Spirit, m
Simplicity in style has always
counted high in the fashion
world, and for school nothing
is nicer than a tiny white collar
for light wool dresses. Febru
ary is a drab month and you’ll
want something new, so why
not change your fall dress by
seeing the Broadway’s selection
in neckwear. They are smart,
new and different.
V Jt
Jauntily Yours
Prints are all the new news
at J. C. Penney's this time, and
if you like riotous color, this
season will be your heydey. Ev
erything is going to be color
and prints, particularly black
and red. The styles vary slight
ly, but dominating trends show
pleats and full skirts to lead
the market as do three-quarter
length sleeves. At least that is
all the news straight from New
York and Penney's. See some
today.
Colei Cheeks
Winter is still blowing and it
is important that your complex
ion is guarded against the cold.
Dorothy Grey offers a double
dollar value in the Blustery
weather lotion, that comes in
an extra large bottle—you’ll be
amazed to see how big it is —
and softens your skin immedi
ately. Tiffany-Da vis stocks it
for $1.00.
Sweet Reducing
Off with the pounds in the
easiest way in the world . . .
the new idea is to eat one piece
of Ayds—like a carmel chew—
half an hour before mea's. The
"andy contains lots of vitamins
and minerals so that when you
eat you will not crave so much
food and thereby will lose
weight. The box has 104 pieces
of candy, enough for a months
supply for $2.00 at Millers. ..
Half of the Battle
One of the top items on your
spring shopping list should be
a coat, and now is the time to
shop for one because the stocks
are large and complete with ev
ery stjde. Beards are featuring
especially for the Oregon coed,
a blue covert cloth, double
breasted coat for $22.50 It has
the new military back and wide
lapels. Truly the "smart" coat
of the year.
We Salute
The girl’s in the navy! At least that is the impression you get
from the new navy dress at Kaufman Bros. It is silk crepe, laced
up the front, has a tie back, three-quarter length sleeves, and a
huge sailor collar with four rows of gold braid to relieve its
simplicity. This is ‘ the dress” of the week.
