We like her because she’s clean . . . and given to sweet powders and dabs of perfume. We like her eye for color a3 shown in the reds and Kelly greens of winter and the sudden blossoming of pastels in the spring. We like the way she wears her clothes—casually for sports and with a sleek sophisti cation for concerts and desserts. * * * Frankly, we don’t care for her Jottte jealousies, her tendency to band together with friends in little cliques of three or four.

It all started way back when you thought you’d never see another pair of silk or Nylon hosiery. Fresh from Washington, D, C., comes a long list of can and can’t haves for your wardrobe of to morrow. Among the many de tails which the WPB says will be passe, come the next crop of clothes, are wool lining in your coats and suit jackets. No more patch pockets, at least on lined garments. Your new dress can’t have an attached hood, scarf, cape, petticoat, overskirt or apron. Just as well, for you’ve probably felt pretty silly at times with that attached hood and a bright sun shining. No Wooi'ies When the fall term pledge dance rolls around next year you won’t be wearing a new wool evening coat. When you dash downtown on a Saturday after noon you’ll find no more of those two articles of apparel at one unit price, no double yokes, turnback cuffs. Coat lengths will be stan dardized as will your hem widths. Two inches is all you'll be al lowed for a hem. Jackets are get ting shorter daily.

He says they are two-faced, a bunch of sheep (“Like all wear ing sweaters and skirts contin ually), they are out for what they can get, most of them are un friendly—and he can’t remember when he hasn’t been fascinated by them! He believes there is no perfect woman on this campus, yet he concocted one ( a composite smoothie) in his off-hand man ner with a. twist of his tongue. He plucked a blade of grass from the art school lawn, smiled blandly, and spoke in rapid-fire cadences: “Hair: Pat Holder. Ef ficiency: Helen Angell. Charm and personality: Phyllis Root. Figure: I dunno. I never notice a figure unless there is something wrong with it." “Do I think there is only one girl for every fellow? Heck no," he grunted disgustedly, “a man can adjust himself to almost any thing." “I guess we’ll have to adjust ourselves to women in business, too,” he shrugged his shoulders. “They’ve proven themselves ef ficient and every bit as smart as men. I sort of like smart women—■ figure I can learn something from them!” “Do I like Dutch-treating? Say, anytime a woman wants to spend her money on me, I have no objections! I have absolutely no morals about borrowing from ’em.” “I will say this for college wo men. They have poise, intelli gence, finesse, smoothness — I think they’re slick.” (Conti'adic tory ?) “I can’t exactly say why I like them. I like pretty faces. I like fun. I like them just because they are ‘they’.” Honestly, gosh! MottfdoKjMe If one lad went strolling by Who am I to care ? Who am I to sit and cry When I know that there Are other pebbles on the beach Shining in the sun— Other fruit within my reach. Should I weep for one ?
