Advice to college freshmen on
the art of being rushed grace
fully usually turn into a combina
tion of the complete works of
Emily Post, Dale Carnegie, and
Vogue magazine.
But when you get right down
to it, all the Panhellenic pep
talks you’ll hear could be reduced
to three simple rules:
1. Be yourself.
2. Dress simply.
3. At the table, do as the
housemother does.
A lot of territory is covered
in those two words, “be yourself,”
But if your home town friendly
spirit can be forced through thoge
waves of self-consciousness, the
pledge pin is practically yours.
As famous as its millrace is
Oregon’s tradition of “friendli
ness.” It is this trait that will
make a rushee shine as a “gem”
in sorority women's memories
when they make up their list of
who’ll wear the ribbons.
Your Greek hostesses are in
terested more in the personal
“you” than in what you think of
the weather. They do not label
it conceit if you talk a bit about
yourself, your family, and the
things in which you are inter
ested. Don’t go over the danger
point, however, and brag unre
strainedly about your love life,
your high school activities, or
how many other houses have

Going Collegiate ?
Millie Takes A Hand
By MILDRED WILSON
Co-Women’s Editor
Freshmen coeds are certainly lucky. New fields to conquer and
a "different" personality and fresh wardrobe for use as weapons, Of
course the wardrobe may be padded out with that two-year old
beige wool—or the recently shortened blue and red plaid, but so far
as the campus knows they both arrived straight from the store.
Naturally every normal coed
wants to be considered well
dressed. The trick in this art,
fortunately, is not an unlimited
budget but merely careful selec
tion with an eye to playing up
ones best points and making each
article of clothing do double-duty.
Quality, Not Quantity
Put the emphasis of quality on
campus clothes, if anywhere.
Skirts, sweaters and ankle-socks
are accepted favorites—with a
smart dress or two in wool,
jersey, or corduroy to go to
classes with saddles—or dating
with silk stockings and heels.
Simplicity and casual comfort
should characterize all class
room clothes. They should be dur
able to avoid that baggy effect
that comes after a few hours of
sitting—and easy to clean and
press at home—unless you can
afford the bills.
One point that can hardly be
stressed too strongly is the need
for at least one good, strong
school coat—a reversible if the
money won't stretch to include
both a rain and cold weather
coat. A neutral-colored camels
hair coat, or a conservative tweed
are also practical for winter
wear. One-coat wardrobes are
seldom effective if planned
around a large splashy plaid or
brilliant all-over colors that
tend to clash with skirts. Try
and squeeze in one nice fitted
jacket for the cool—but not
quite cold—autumn and spring
days.
Clompety— Clomp
In the realm of footwear the
reign of the saddle shoe is being
strongly challenged by the new
golf shoes and increasingly popu
lar wooden shoe, as practical in
rainy weather as they are noisy
in the libe. High heels, along
with fussy silk dresses, are saved
for desserts, teas and Sunday
wear.
