We think that almost all men
and women have somewhat of a
Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde vein
deep down inside. Witness the
change that most people go
through when they climb into the
driver’s seat of an automobile.
People who usually are polite and
ever, tempered seem automati
cally to be transformed into bad
mannered, ill-tempered beasts
when they get a steering wheel
in their hands.
Why? Traffic safety expert.?
certainly would like to know. The
transformation that comes over
men and women when they wrap
their fingers around a steering
wheel would majke an excellent
study for a psephologist . . . the
results would be interesting.

Anyway it’s there and you
don’t have to go far for exam

ashamed to admit you’re one of
these Dr. Jekylt-Mr. Hyde driv

Sometimes it seems as if the po

Dave Swave, a University fel

and was known for his good man

He never let a door slam in any

someone he smiled and said “ex

But Dave had a car and when
he climbed inside he lost all his

Coed of the Week.
Blonde Bette Morfitt
Prefers Blue Clothes
By RUTH JORDAN
A fondness for blue, especially in clothes, is characteristic of
our coed of the week, Bette Morfitt. “I guess all blondes like blue,”
she smiled.
Her favorite perfume is "White Ginger From Hawaii,” and al
though it is almost impossible to get it here, she prefers it to any
other brand.
“I think all sports are interesting, but I like skiing best. That
is one sport where you can nave
fun without being an expert,” she
remarked.
Cup Winner
Winner of the Gerlinger cup
last year, Miss Morfitt has been
a member of Kwama, sophomore
women’s honorary, and Phi The
ta Upsilon, junior women’s hon
orary. She wras chairman of the
Junior Weekend luncheon last
spring. This year she holds the
offices of secretary-treasurer of
the ASUO and treasurer of Mor
tar Board.
Regarding a black toy dog
which she held on her lap, she
said, “I have had him for eight
years but I haven’t named him
yet. I guess I don’t have a mania
tor naming imngs.
Plans Career
Activities are this blue-eyed
Kappa Kappa Gamma’s hobby.
She is very interested in people,
and plans to go into personnel
work when she graduates this
spring.
Selling in department stores
and cashiering occupy most of
Miss Morfitt's summers. “I like
business work,” she said, ”par
ticularly in large department
stores.”
The coed of the week does not
like gaudy jewelry or hairbows.
“I prefer pearls or very plain
jewelry,” she said smiling.

Social eJlead
By MARGE CURTIS
Perched atop the back of a
chair, Oregon’s petite campus so
cial chairman, Carolyn Holmes,
aired her views on AWS's forth
coming Coed Capers.
While puzzled coeds tear their
hair and chew their respective
fingernails in desperation of
what to wear at the Capers, Car
olyn, calm as usual, suggested
the following concoctions:
“Since women are forever com
plaining about working their fin
gers to the bone and leading a
dog’s life, why not come as a
bone?’’ she began.
Cute Costumes?
“If you don’t like that idea,
how about the diet angle?” she
suggested. “Wouldn’t the average
coed look cute dressed as a
grapefruit, an omelet, or a plate
of lamb chops?”
“One can also talk sports and
politics without the fear of being
squelched by a knowing male,”
she added. (That should make
lots of people happy.)
“This is strictly a women’s
party,” said Carolyn emphatical
ly. “Now that we have a chance
to express our views, let’s really
“let our hair down” and make
the fellows realize “that we can
have fun without them.” (At
least for one evening.)
A daughter, Mary Jane, was
born June 20 to Dr. and Mrs.
Ector Bossatti, ’27, M.D. ’30
(Edith T. Greene, ’33) of Dallas.
A son, Bruce F., was born Aug
ust 1 to Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth A.
Tormoehlen, ’33, (Mary Dolores
Hall, ’33).
