EVENING BRINGS Formals of Jersey Rule Spring Scene By LOIS IIULSER In the spring a young woman's fancy turns to thoughts of formals —this year it’s silhouette in jersey. Designers have begun to realize that there’s something about a soldier, so it's braids and brass buttons for spring term. An irresistible combination is a red, white and blue silk jersey formal with a floor length cape of navy blue flannel. The formal has a white short-sleeved blouse and a full-flared navy skirt combined with a red girdle. The navy jacket with long sleeves and white braid on the shoulders makes this dress the formal of the term. me cape, nneu wun leu jci - sey to match the sash on the dress, has brass buttons on the shoulder. You may not be the sophisticat ed type, but you can still have jer sey. It’s a white blouse again but the high waistline is a broad band that drops to a super-full peasant print silk jersey dirndl. If your idea of something springy is a skirt that stands out and rustles as you walk the new white sharkskin models are made to order for you. Tailored skirt maker styles adapted for formal® will be as popular as last year’s sharkskin playsuits. Another mod el is a white formal—formal with a matching sharkskin jacket. A girdle of red, green and yello\ brightens up the dress. It just wouldn’t be spring if w didn't have a new shade of blu or pink. This year it’s platter blu< Unlike most new colors this is quiet tone which won’t screar 1941 if you should want to wea it again next year. A good lookin jersey is fashioned in this ne\ shade.

Light pastels, all shades of yellow, and prints will reign. It's a spring where the nautical rage is dom inating, but the feminine trend is a close parallel with an “anything goes” attitude. The sailor dress with tri-color emblems, brass buttons, anchors, bars, and braids lend a national air. Suits with long torso jackets are following this same line, but also branch off into pastels. Light woolen dresses in pastels are as soft and smooth as bunny fur. In the woolens this spring are the ever faithful shirtwaist frocks with pleats of unlimited amount. Later in the spring the shirtwaist will appear in shantung weaves and sharkskin which have always been a friend of the coed.

More material is '■ being used in the skirts with ^ pleats, soft front fullness, and ’ | shirred pockets. 1 | Splashy prints come as a “hang 1 over” from the winter resorts who "; adopted a tropical theme. Silk j prints are found in two main types, s 1 draped tops and printed skirts 5 with rayon jersey blouses in a " long moulded torso. Silk jersey not e only will be seen in dressy designs, - but will again be popular in all '■ kinds of sportswear. CO At CO- EFFICIENT Keeps you in tune with the weather all the year ’round.

I mean war and peace, j army and navy, stars and stripes . . . you know what I mean.” “Bugles and beans, widows and orphans," Daphne muttered. “I had a sailor dress once. Every time I wore it, it rained." “Would I look good in navy?” Toad addressed the mirror. “If you will remember,” Daphne spoke in tones of weary resigna tion, "Last year you bought a beanie, and stopped wearing it be cause you couldn't see anyone on the street without one. Two years ago, you insisted, against my ad vice, on getting a beer jacket. You regretted it, did you not? When you were twelve . . .” I “My gosh, I'm human, aren't I ? Everybody makes mistakes. Why do they put erasers on pencils?" Toad considerately opened the win | dow as Daphne showed serious ■ signs of being asphyxiated. It was an unsubtle way she had of indi cating that a joke was approach ing extreme age. “Why don’t you put on my an chor pin and go somewhere and re- , lax?” Greek Houses Announce New Building Plans Aside from "eta Tau Alpha’s plans for the new location, and Phi Delta Theta’s for a base ment game room, no Greek house on the campus has any definite building plans for next year.
