But now no one has to tell you.
You probably realize that there
Iwere never so many luscious
sweaters and suits on Oregon
coeds, which gives you that mob
feeling, and makes some of your
wardrobe look sick. And you
thought you were the only gal
who had a pay check in the hun
dreds!
The situation definitely calls
for action. And since buying
more clothes isn’t the solution,
perhaps it will enter your vic
, y^ory bob that groonftng and
•^..mooth beauty scheme are more
important than a mere cashmere
cardigan.
The best news in years is the
three-inch cut, and variations
thereon. After a two-year build
up, it can actually be seen on the
campus in increasing numbers.
Whether or not it’s becoming, it
does save time and tears.
Coeds are going to save pre
Icious minutes before a coke date
by using pancake makeup and a
minimum of everything else.
(Which reminds us, those grave
yard shades of nail polish and
lipstick are out at last, and the
honey and true reds claim lip pi'i
orities. And another thing, once
a-day lathering of the complex
ion saves wear and tear on any
;; mirror.
If you are so fortunate as to

And we do hope you have a mend

that is, and all the fixins for
your shoes, from saddle soap on.
Back to those glorious tweeds
of yours, they will live longer and
stay springy if treated to frequent
evenly balanced hanger, and gen
tle pressings.

Every single one of the other
columnists writing for the Emer
ald has a definite purpose, but
this columnist has a Different
Purpose . . . namely, to comment
on anything around the campus
that seems Worth Comment, and,
of course, to keep the women's
page editor from worrying about
filling up all her space . . . any
space, which usually isn’t Large,
that has been kindly donated by

- Let us now pause to consider
the beginning of fall term, which
seems to be pretty much like all
other fall terms, despite the an
nounced drop in enrollment. The
freshman girls are as beautiful
as ever, which causes all the up
percla;\;men to feel more like
the Ancient Mariner than ever,
and the freshman men have dis
covered those light blue pants,
possibly to keep anyone from
thinking they are sophomores,
but the chief result seems to be
that they have acquired a sort of
Fresh-From-the-Farm air.
The utter lack and general
dearth of upperclass men caused
three senior girls the other night
to discard their lofty dignity
when they were joined by three
freshman boys in one of the local
coffee houses. They firmly an
nounced they were freshmen and
discussed the problems of English
comp with fervor. One of the
boys, a skeptical lad, remarked
to one of the seniors that she
seemed rather older than most

Although political turmoil has
taken the frills off of the big' par
ties. Oregon is by no means anti
At last I'm settling down to
the life of a college freshman,
and I love it. During rush week
I had a perfectly wonderful,
nerve-racking time rooming with
Jiree other girls in the dorm. The
closets were filled with luscious,
clothes. There was one red wool
jersey semi-dress job that gave
me the screamers. The color, dah
lia-red, was advertised in the Sep
tember issue of Vogue; you prob
ably saw it. Anyway it's really a
patriotic dress 'cause it sticks to
government regulations—no zip
pers. The hidden clasps run all
the way down the front of the
dress which makes getting into
it a simple matter. The long
sleeves are smooth and have
those same tricky clasps.
Second best among the things
I’ve seen I liked the culotte
skirts. As soon as Dad sends my
check I’m going to get one that’3
purple and grey checked to go
with my new purple nylon sweat
er. Hope I can get it in time for
the bunion derby!
I've racked my brain trying to
think of something outstanding
to wear to the church social Sun
day. Mickey’s going to wear her
new gray velveteen; it’s two-piece
The skirt is gathered in the front
and the dressy jacket ties in a
bow on the right hand side. The
matching turban and wine plat
form shoes set it off. I wanted
to borrow June’s black dress but
someone beat me to it. Its
draped lines and bright colored
sequin midriff list it high on the
lend-lease code of the house.
I returned from the Portland
game with very little cash but
lots of new clothes. On the trip
home I wore a Sam Brown suit
and matching beanie of woven
leather strips. But my favorite is
a steel blue velveteen date dress;
partly because cf its sweetheart
neck, and partly because of its
fitted bodice and dirndl-type
skirt.
Gosh! I almost forgot my one

much fibbing already a little
more wouldn't matter, blandly in

school a couple of years, which,
caused her friends considerable
mirth.
If the boys happen to read this,
by some bit of bad luck, they
should ignore it . . . the gals
were highly entertained.
NOW, here's one about a fresh
man girl. This sweet young thing
was determined to be very col
legiate and blase, so, when she
was offered a cigarette at one of
the rush teas, she accepted. Some
one came up to light it for her,
but the gal, who was a trifle un
accustomed to smoking, held it
out at arm's length to be lighted.
The other girl, always the per
fect hostess, took it, lit it for her
and handed it back!!!

President's reception, and the an

we all hope that the fellows will
leave their dirty cords at home.
Even the new faded-blue fresh
man pants will rate higher with
the girls. Friday evening Eugene
churches will entertain students,
both old and new, according to
campus social chairman, Mary
Bently.
The faculty will be received by
President and Mrs. Erb at the
President’s annual reception to
