Child Morale Shaken By the Easter Rabbit By MARY ANN CAMPBELL This dreadful Easter bunny legend seems to be almost as pernicious and all-prevailing as the Santa Claus tale, and is quite as useful for fooling little children. Since it isn’t fair to go about fooling little children, with such legends as these, the practice ought to be severely condemned and stopped. Think how puzzling to the infant mind to hear the Easter bunny comes to each house on its rounds, leaving eggs, when down town, in every window, there are dozens of Easter bunnies, alive, chocolate, or made of plush and cardboard. f Pink and Blue Rabbits Besides, the sight of a florist’s window full of pink and blue and green rabbits will instantly un (Continued on page five) 1 Large shipments of play clothes are here now— Visit our campus shop (Imola’s) or see them at our shop downtown. 14. & C©i APPAREL FURS TOILETRIES MILLINERY ACCESSORIES 1050 Willamette 39c valnes! t a f^29c) They fit like a second skin, for elastic laton is knitted in with the rayon!

Miss Gladys Saun ders, secretary to Miss Janet Smith in the employment office, will take her art magazines out of her desk drawer, put on her coat, and lock up the office for the last time. Sunday she will be married in Eugene to Marion P. (Pete) Vo gel, junior standing pre-med stu dent at the University, and the couple will leave next week for Alaska, where Pete is going to work as an electrical engineer in the aeronautical national defense program either in Anchorage or Fairbanks. Miss Saunders, employment secretary’s secretary since De cember 3, 1940, was graduated with a B.S. degree in architec ture and allied arts in 1939. She has studied art in Los Angeles since, which explains her art mag azines and the Sunday New York Times she subscribes to for the art sections. Miss Edith Pearson, who has attended the University also, is Miss Smith’s choice for successor to the departing secretary. Miss Pearson has worked in depart ment stores in Eugene and Port land, especially as the head of book rental departments. Try A Gleaming Red Straw Hat In Spring Sun Fashion’s Easter bunny is all ears, and she definitely has her head out of the box. According to Carmel Snow, editor in chief of Harper’s Bazaar, peplums, bod ices, polka dots, “twilight” dress es, small waists, trim suits, and ethereal scarves are standing on the spring fashion dais. Miss Snow is all for delicate blouses in jersey and cotton, country skirts and slacks, woody green, cinnamon brown, beiges and white. And if there’s one thing Miss Snow thinks is ab solutely requisite, it’s a red straw hat. She thinks it will gleam in the spring sunshine, as hay does in the autumn. A waffled piquet coat is an other of Miss Snow’s finds; she suggests them in flag blue and dull geranium red. Slip a flag blue waffled coat over a bright red cotton town dress, and what do you have—a following! Back to school; Sue Sawyer’s flamingo compliment to the day is a batiste blouse, soft and shim mery—she doesn’t tuck it in— and wears it over a bright red printed skirt; Winie Brown’s svelte blue corduroy suit has bright silver buttons climbing up the top; Jane Doyle’s gay candy cane dress swirls at the bottom with a big piquet band; Jean Crite’s fitted pink coat is like finding an Easter egg in Oregon’s green grass; Margie Major’s in a lime and white striped cotton dress with wide green buttons. John B. Waite, professor of criminal law at the University of Michigan, is a bow tie addict. The other day 100 of 130 freshmen in one of his classes showed up wearing bows. | FRED’S CAMPUS SHOP Men’s Haberdashery by Wilson Brothers Across from Sigma Chi Cleaning Ph. 3141 Sag It With Flowers On Easter Morning By PHYLLIS FOSTER Easter time is the time for eggs, bunnies, and chicks—but that’s not all. What would Easter be without flowers? Spring hats would be at a loss to say nothing of milady as she starts her Easter morn. Merely because Mother won’t be on the campus this Easter or you won’t be home, don't forget her. A local flower shop suggests tele graphing her a plant or corsage. They offer this personalized service to almost any place in the Unit ed States. A plant suggested for mothers is the azalea which may be transplanted in her garden after she has it inside for several weeks. Easter lilies will always reign supreme. This year Oregon grown lily plants are available which have been sent from the coast. Formerly the bulbs came from Japan: however, these new plants are noted for their deep foliage and wide flowers which some times measure six inches across.
