Coed of the rWeeJz.
Janet Douglas Directs
Mortar Board Activities
“My biggest project as president of Mortar Board is to try
and get seven busy senior girls to meet at one time,” laughed
Janet Douglas, who has been chosen Coed of the Week. Janet
is a tall, slim, brown-haired senior with blue eyes and an active
interest in her fellow students at the University because she
is second vice-president of ASUO.
~An all-around activity girl,
was president of Hendricks hall
last year which she counts as the
largest and most interesting office
of her college career up to this
point. Her room in Hendricks
carries out her love for green and
shades of green although she ad
mitted that her wardrobe also con
tains blues and an occasional
watermelon sweater. She is proud
of her single room on the first
floor of the dorm and explained
that she wasn’t able to get a single
room last year so by a little con
-HtWing she got it this year.
• “Raggedy Ann” has been a con
stant companion of Janet ever
since high school days. As the
name might imply, she is a doll,
but what a doll! She stands two
and one-half feet in her stockings
and has quantities of carrot
colored hair. She occupies an im
portant position on Janet’s couch
and the only drawback is that she
isn't able to cram for her owner’s
tests.
‘‘You can’t miss my home town,
Junction City, on the way to Port
land, if you are going slow
enough,” Miss Douglas said. She
has no chance to forget about it as
she goes home every Saturday to
teach nine grade-school students
in the fine art of piano playing.
This is her main hobby outside of!
major, sociology.
“Anyone have a spare record
player?” asked the Co-ed of the
Week hopefully. It seems she fair
ly dotes on classical records and
has quite a collection, but lacks
that important instrument.
Already starting to plan the
Mortar Board ball, the prexy says
it looks promising because of a
larger male attendance who will
make it a bigger and better dance
than has been possible during the
war years.
Plans for the immediate future
after graduation ? They are not
definite, but Janet thinks she will
teach for a while and then con
tinue her schooling.
Frendly rivalry is carried on be
tween her sister and herself as her
sister attends Oregon State. That
is one of the main reasons she
wants Oregon to win the Home
coming week game.
Going to Annapolis for her
brother’s graduation from the
United States’ Naval academy is
one of her big memories. Outside
of that, she has been to Canada
several times and has traveled to
othr parts of the United States.
Laying down the “New Yorker”
which she spends most of her
spare time reading, this week’s
co-ed said in a serious tone. “I
have noticed a more prominent
feeling of unrest during this first
post-war term than was prevalent
during the actual war years.”

Euene’s Fashion Center
GcanfMA, Glad.
By MARY HIBBITT
Put down your books, gals and
pals, forget that mid-term just a
minute and take a look at some of
the brighter things in life.
Holding the key to his heart is
newly-engaged Barbara Hessmer,
in a new tailored aqua jumper
dress with a round, slit neck. She
wears it with a chocolate brown
blouse. Joan Heron attains perfec
tion in the sweater-and-skirt world
in a white, blue, and green pleated
skirt, combined with a white
sweater trimmed in the same plaid
as the skirt.
In a smooth black wool skirt
and geranium-pink wool bodice is
Mae Bignell. This suit will be a
wintertime favorite. Speaking of
suits, have you seen Carolyn
Tyler in a smartly tailored suit of
tan, brown and blue check. She
calls it her basic suit, but we call
it a classic inspiration. The de
signer of Virginia Walker’s black
and mist-blue dress must have had
her in mind, as it emphasizes the
young way to wear black. Virginia
Tapfer in a three-piece suit of
herring-bone tweed will be all set
for the big game this Saturday,
and we hope to see you all there.
Giving a new slant to the class
room outfit was Jo Kasmeyer in a
gray plaid skirt with a soft gray
wool blouse tucked in at the waist.
Margaret Heines had on a unique
combination of a brown checked
skirt with one pleat in front, and
a leather belt. Her sweater, a
luscious white cashmere, topped it
off.
It's “let’s relax” time with Jean
Jacoberger in a pair of red plaid
slacks and a red wool shirt. Abso
lutely fascinating. Sweet rhythm
is the word for Joanne Shields in
her black dressmaker suit, featur
ing a moulded bodice and long dol
man sleeves.
At some of the gala social
events of the past week-end it was
noticed that formats have once
again moved into the spot light.
Dancing to the theme of Indian
Summer was Signe Eklund in a
flowing white formal with spark
ling rhinestone straps. Betty Ben
nett was sprinkled with stardust
in a gold satin formal, with soph
isticated lines and a revealing slit
at the hem. She had on half-gloves
to match. Oh, that we all could be
as warm and look as elegant as
Averill Foster in a dream of a
blue, Norwegian fox fur coat . . .
in the. popular three-quarter
length.
Men Overlooked
It has been brought to this re
porter’s attention that the men on
this campus have been greatly
over-looked when it comes to
being seen on the football field
. . . Look for Dick Smith under
the padded shoulders of a smart
sport jacket. The belt in back
adds a definite note of interest.
Among the collection of sweaters
of one Ed Evans, a smooth gray
cardigan cashmere could be found.
Oh, well, that is just one of the
many. Reedy Berg is really flash
ing it in a red and black sport
jacket and a red rain hat to
match. Seen in a handsome gray
flannel suit with white pin stripes
was Jim Kroder . . . Hal Bailey
is keeping a head of the best of
them in a very masculine brown
pin-striped suit . . . Catching the
eye of may a wonder miss was
Dick Wilkins in a teal-blue suit
with a maroon shirt and a flashy
bow tie.
"UP IN ARMS"

From Bubbles to Donuts
By Kay Leslie and Selby Frame
Fiist it s rain—then it s bubbles—or have you noticed the
spherical glycerine floating around on the downtown streets
md around the campus: “Life” says that they are just a relaxa
tion for people after the tensions of war. If the bubble fad con
tinues at its present rate, it will soon pass the yoyo craze of
jtoiciuaj.

Everyone is trying to grow a
long beard for the Sophomore
Whiskerino but will probably end
up with no more than a five
o’clock shadow. We present you
with this one thought:
So soft, so smooth
And just rub in;
Spread over face
And then on chin,
Shurma Rave.

There have been many inquiries

It is the time of year for dough
nut sales to flourish on the cam

coffee for the class members.
We’ll bring the doughnuts.

We are impressed with all the
snappy delivery services offered
by the various campus hangouts.
We suggest that the library in

lose all their trade.

The annual Homecoming Week
end will be resumed this fall. The
committee in charge is urging stu
dents to contribute themes to the
contest. We suggest:
“A meeting of the clan,
For your and my old man.”

called the hairbird because of its
fondness for horse hair which it
uses for its nest.
