She’s a piquant Pi Phi pixie,
aiso prexy, dark and vibrant with
a pin-up nose. That’s Lora Case,
who had a gruelling time as head
01' Panhellenic during rush week
when she went for 31 hours with
out sleep.
‘ My family’s the most inter
esting,” said our coed of the
week, gazing quickly down at her
neat, small, red wooden shoes.
*‘Dad (Robert Ormond Case) grad
uated from here in 1919 ... I
think maybe it was 1920 ... He
was a Delt and worked on the
Oregonian for a while. Right now
he’s assistant to the president of
R.D.C., the rubber development
corporation, and he’s leaving for
Miami on the eighth to lead a
party of 13 newspapermen on the
upper Amazon. . . Yes, he worked
for the Post and Colliers, and had
a column in Liberty.
No Journalism
Surprisingly enough, Lora isn’t
a journalism major because “Dad
dy said it’s a life he wouldn’t
want any of his children to lead,”
she announced with an engaging
^out.
Two of Lora’s aunts are also
writers. One aunt, Victoria Case,
who was the guest speaker at
Matrix Table two years ago,
writes for Reader’s Digest and
the Saturday Evening Post.
Nodding her head vivaciously,
which caused the large white bow
ensconced thereon to flutter, Lora
'ealed that “Bob got a schol
up back to Yale and he got
one of the highest grades in the
country. He’s my little brother,
and he’s 17.”
About the rest of her family,
I-ora spiritedly recounted, “I have
13-year-old sis who’s a frosh
at Grant and the baby is nine
and she’s in grade school. She
has long, dark braids and big.
black eyes. My mother was a Pi
Phi here at the University too.
She graduated with honors in
psychology.”
Etc.
Other notes gleaned from Lora:
She thoroughly dislikes turnips
and reads all the time . . . when
•’ *' ’ting up her hair, getting ready
a shower, etc. When she ex
hausts her reading material, she
starts reading it over again . . .
read “Farewell to Arms’’ five
times before school started . . .
has a wine-covered convertible ...
loves boats, and “We have a sail
boat. It’s just a Moth, but it’s
lots of fun.” She’s English and
Swiss . . . got her junior certifi
cate with honors, and plans to
go into advertising . . . “Daddy
thinks it’s swell."

War headlines are indirectly
responsible these days for every
thing coeds wear. Fabric regula
tions decree the number and
depth of pleats in a skirt, the
percentage of virgin wool in a
sweater, and even the number of
pairs of shoes students can pur
chase.
As yet, however, there is no ra
tioning of originality, as many of
the bright new fall outfits prove.
Marilyn Beard’s gay red peas
ant jumper is a bright addition
to any class. With it, she wears
a white silk blouse, frilled around
the neck and three-quarter length
sleeves . . . Dorothy Routt sports
a wine gabardine peasant jump
er .. . Corduroy jumpers, dec
orated with bright felt flowers,
are another idea which is bound
to go far . . . Jean Briggs wears
a powder blue corduroy dress. The
skirt is full, and the bodice is
decorated with four corduroy but
tons—two on either side . . .
Dorothy Shepherd is another ad
vocate of the peasant influence,
with her full black and white
checked skirt, and please notice
the patch pockets. With it, she
wears a black jersey jumper.
Peasant blouses, all materials,
colors, sizes, and styles, are be
ing displayed in numbers on the
campus, also. Standouts among
these include Mary Ellen Foland’s
long-sleeved blouse, embroidered
down the front. We might add,
this looks nothin’ but smooth un
der suits . ._ . Mary Ann Lynch
looks glamorous in her white
silk crepe blouse, with a draw
string neckline, tied low in front.

That time of the year is here
again—campus women—to start
“thinking up’’ ideas and tearing
your hair for a 1943 Coed Capers.
The whole affair promises to be
at least a little different this
year, for a queen—this time a
Victory Queen—will probably hold
the spotlight, according to AWS
President Miki Campbell.
This coed, who will be chosen
from candidates from all the
women's living organizations,
will hhve her picture sent to UO
service men and will reign over
Coed Capers —- but more about
that in the futu-e.
All coeds interested in being
chairman of the Coed Capers
should be sure to turn in their
petitions to Micki Campbell
later than Tuesday noon. But
first, be sure you can qualify—
are you a non-freshman, do you
have a GPA of at leat 2-point,
and can you get a signed eligibil
ity slip from the dean of women ?

Back again on the inside of
WAA. Well, almost anyway.
Meaning that nothing specific and
definite is in the offing until af
ter the meeting of the WAA
council.
Just a minute while we back
track for the benefit of the fresh
man. The twice-mentioned ini
tials stand for Women’s Athletic
association, which puts on each
year a program of intramural
sports—in addition to various so
cial functions. With that informa
tion as a reminder we can con
tinue . . .
Right now we’re hep for a suc
cessful season of volleyball. The
weather is good. We’re feeling
good. And after four months of
recuperation from spring term
baseball—but with pleasant mem
ories of enthusiastically swung
bats and- cheered home runs—
we’re energetic.
Don’t press us for details as to
the date and the head of the vol
leyball tournament ... as we
said before, that’s yet to be de
cided.
After the members of WAA
council gather around the execu
tive table we’ll hand out to you
all the vital information. So ex
ercise your muscles, and polish
your volleyball.
Now’s the time to get in the
swing!
