Blonde Abbie Reveals
True Love Is—Music
By BETTY ANN STEVENS
2098W, please—yes, 2098W.” A pause, and a rather high soft
voice said, "Hello? Yes, this is Abbie Jane White. Coed of the week?
Well! I’m taking care of some children over on Fairmont, but I can
get away at 9:30 tonight. Shall I come over and see you?”
So, at 9:30 began a very unorthodox interview in which the inter
viewee, asked more questions than she answered.
Blond, Gamma Phi Abbie Jane, new YWCA prexy sat on the edge
of the advenport, toying with her
Do-Re-Mi
"Music-minded?” she asked
"Oh, slightly. I mean I love mu
sic, and' I started to minor in it
but— Yes, I was president of Ph:
Beta," she affirmed.
“I play the piano, but I don’1
play any orthodox things.” She
doesn't play “boogie-woogie” 01
classical, "just what I like.” Hei
music teacher was “furious” with
her when she tried to swing “Si
lent Night” when she was in the
fourth grade, she added with 6
grin.
“My plans for the ‘Y’?” she
asked. “Well, let’s see— There’s
one thing that I’m interested ir
mainly—the tea group, and the
music group, and combine the
two, and it seems to me that
things can be just as inspiring
through music. It's always most
ly discussion groups.”
Men?
A Phi Theta, she is also a mem
ber of the “Spinster’s club.” Ta
the question, "How about men?”
she countered with a sly twinkle,
“Well, how about them? Nice
people. No comment.” She admit
ted an interest in man, however,
as “the fellow I go with isn't in
school.”
As for hobbies, etc., she an
announced, “I collect dust!” She
then said unexpectedly, “I have a
teddy bear named ‘Gladly!’ She
leaned back and with a mischiev
ous gleam in her eye declared,
“He’s crosseyed.”
For the Effect Distinctly One's Own
Tiffang-Davis, Drugs
8th and Willamette
'Skipper"
From a year of Phi Beta presi
denting, Abbie Jane White takes
over the reigns of the YMCA.
More seriously, she said, “Yes,
I'm a language major. I’m taking
French, and lots of people seem
to think it’s kind of a lost cause
at this point, but I don't think
so.” She’s not quite sure just
what she’s going to do in the
field of language, when she grad
uates.
A June wedding will be that of
Miss Rebecca Anderson to George
Stowell Burson of Fillmore, Cal
ifornia. The announcement was
made last weekend.
The bride-elect is past presi
dent of Orides, a member of Mu
Phi Epsilon and of Phi Beta, mu
his honoraries. She was a mem
ber of Phi Theta Upsilon and this
year also is senior representative
on the ASUO executive commit
tee.
Mr. Burson is a senior in for
estry at Oregon State college.
The engagement of Miss Ruby
Jackson to Robert B. Frazier
was announced to about 30
friends at an informal tea held
Saturday afternoon at the bride
elect’s home.
Yellow and white spring flow
ers decorated the room. Receiving
with Miss Jackson were her moth
ers, Mrs. Joseph Jackson and the
groom-elect’s mother.
Both Miss Jackson and Frazier
are University students. The for
mer is affiliated with Chi Ome
ga sorority and Theta Sigma Phq
women’s national journalism
honorary. Frazier is former news
editor of the Emerald and a
member of Sigma Delta Chi.
The secret of happiness is not
in doing what one likes, but in
liking what one has to do.

Easter Sunday is the time to
wear the new spring' hat you've
been saving, to walk to church in
clean, white and tan spectators,
and to pin a flower to the lapel
of your best suit or lightweight
coat. All this, of course, depend
ing upon the "Oregon mist."
It is customary for some fra
ternities to have annual Easter
breakfasts, and if you should be
invited to one of these, dress as
you would it' you were going to
church. Wearing of hats is option
al, however, and is up to you and
your escort.
Radio dances scheduled for
Saturday night call for short
silks, as do theater dates.
. Nino Martini sings Tuesday
evening at McArthur court, and
campus clothes are in order for
tho concert, although it is per
fectly proper to wear silks and
heels if one wishes.

Rome endured as long as
there were Romans. America will
