When it comes to a fashion
preview of what’s new in coed
clothes, there’s nothing like
spring term registration day to
find out. Oregon's feminine half
seems to have gone in for buying
in a big way during the past
kweek, and gathered in McArthur
court last Tuesday were many
numbers which might easily have
stepped from the cover of Made
moiselle or Harper’s Bazaar.
Shirley Taylor’s beige suede
boxy jacket is an eye-catcher
with its bishop sleeve9 in match

bell goes in for unusual colors.
Her powder green cardigan

patriotic with her navy blue pea
jacket, an exact replica of those
worn by navy gobs . . . Ruth
Chappell welcomes spring in a
pale yellow all-around pleated
skirt . . . Mari Fitzgerald’s hand
knite white cable stitch pullover
sweater can be worn with any
color skirt.
With pastels, the usual spring
stand-by, becoming more and
more difficult to find, grey,
trimmed in white or colors, is
one of the big fashion firsts for
today . . . Virginia Link, however,
sticks to brighter colors. Her
pink gabardine raincoat adds a
lighter tone to the usual sea of,
beige glimpsed on rainy days . . .
Tinki Paladini also prefers pink.
Her coat is a pink wool chester
field, complete with black velvet
collar . . . Although from the
fashion reports, aqua is a color
fast disappearing from view, due
to the type of dye, the Oregon
campus will continue to view it
for the remainder of the school
year . . . Norma Schrenk, Do
lores Lassen, Jean Fitzgerald,
and Loraine Harper are but a
few of those who display suits or
coats of. aqua . . . Martha Lee
Benke, Shirley Hicks, and Alice
Lockhart will look like the three
little sisters in their hand-made
dirndls of glazeci chintz, which is
a material sure to be in the lime
light this summer.

Good Taste

“No,” observed one student
mildly, “I didn't pledge Phi Beta
Kappa. They rushed me, but I
didn't like their food.”
ADD SIGNS OF SPRING: A
bevy (or is it covey? or maybe
convoy?) of damsels were trot
ting briskly across the greens
ward one afternoon (this before

two canoe paddles over her
shoulder. . . .

Have ye heard about Don
Treadgold's troubles? It seems
he has to petition for a BA de
gree, because he never took 24
lower division hours in any one
language. After a. couple of
terms in a first or second year
course, his professors decided he
didn’t need to bother with a third
term. . . So he took lots of read
ing and conference courses,
which aren’t lower division, of
course! Ergo, Don is petitioning.

edge of five languages.

If you’ve talked to a senior
lately, you must surely have no
ticed a change in the attitude
prevalent among undergraduates.
... At registration they mum
bled that This would be their Last
Registration . . . Now, they be
gin to sound positively SENTI
MENTAL about their courses,
and by the week after mid-terms
they’ll be moaning out loud about
how much they hate to leave the
Alma M.

The men who abruptly depart
ed for the air corps in the past
two days wandered off feeling
very indefinite. One sculpture
student seemed a little bothered
about the piece of wood he had
been carving into some master
piece or other.
“D’you suppose somebody could
take care of it for me until I
get back from the wars?” he was
wondering. . . .
Also, pity the coed who was
knitting a civilian sweater for
her man, when he was called,
Just Like That. She had almost
finished it, except for the sleeves,
and now the problem is ... .
should she continue knitting, in
case he gets a leave and wants
to wear it, or should she just
give up the whole project for the
duration ? ? ?
Spring Registration
Ends Saturday
Saturday, March 27, will be the
last day on which students may
register for additional spring term
courses, according to an an
nouncement from the University
faculty news bulletin. The aca
demic requirements committee
will not accept petitions for ex
ceptions from students, the bul
letin stated, but will require a
letter from the department con
cerned.
tf-tiilU Out
Spring . . . 1943. For the first
time in the history of the Unit
ed States women's thoughts will
not turn yearningly to feathers,
frills, and that flower-bedecked
spring hat. Instead, khaki and
navy blue serge will be in the
minds, of many women, and the
right angle for that trig little
G.I. hat.
However, for these civilian wo
men who are keeping the home
fires flaming high, and especial
ly for those attending female
seminaries, the clothing wizards
have looked war-time limitations
in the face and promptly pulled
a few fascinating tricks from up
their sleeves.
Silk comes from Japan . . .
Well, nothing daunted, the de
signers star rayon and shantung
spring dresses. Cotton, produced
in 17 states, comes in all colors,
and those r«e>w alpaca jackets
over printed cotton brighten up
the war-time scene.
Don't get caught in the black
out, advise desigiaers; wear white
bags, gloves, hats, and scarfs,
and pearls, always pearls. Tuck
those gloves in your belt if you
would observe a New York fash
ion note.
Capeskin, morocco, and calf
skin, all of which wear forever,
are spotlighted as materials for
those slung - from - the - shoul
der purses. Note the draw-string
bags, too, and those brief-case
affairs that measure 17 inches
across.
Straw, something that will
probably never see a ration card,
is crocheted into bags and hats
in bright colors.
Blue serge, the indestructible
fabric, is IT in suits. Wear it with
white, wear it with colors, and
get that look of sophisticated in
nocence.
Be svelte in a shirt-top dress
this spring-, combining utility
with that up-to-the-minute look.
When you finally decide on
your new hat’ for Easter, don't
forget a hat-pin. Not for the
duration will those little elastic
bands secure your headdress.
They're gone, to make tires for
tanks and Flying Fortresses.
So Solly
Brief?
Hatpins
And Formals
Evening dresses seem to have
gone to join the dodo bird, and
short evening suits have taken
their place. A simple black skirt,
and a brilliant blouse, perhaps
of white*marganza. Short halter
neck dinner-dresses, bare-shoul
dered, and made of black linen
demonstrate that war can’t com
pletely douse the shimmering
thing that is an American woman
dressed up for an evening of
gaiety.
And lastly, don’t forget that
you can really keep good track
of your man in action by wear
ing a North African campaign
map scarf, and tracing his cours
es across the hot sands.
