NatQue But ^Jwo
Goedti. ojj the Week.
By ANITA YOUNG
Not to be outdone by “Double or Nothing,” we’re doubling
our Coed of the Week feature to include two familiar personali
ties in campus activity and social life—the Hicks twins. These
two sophomores, Janet and Helen, have individually started
to roll up an impressive record on the Oregon campus.
We defy you to readily distinguish between these two
brown-eyed, black curly-haired coeds. Even their Pi Phi
sorority sisters are confused this
term since both Janet and Helen
returned from vacation with identi
cal baby haircuts.

Both are members of t^ie white
sweatered Kwama group and of
Oregon’s rally squad. They are also
serving as co-national advertising
managers on the Emerald staff.
Their GPA’s—bordering on 3.4’s—
show that they have successfully
combined activities and studies.
The Hicks twins history starts
in Portland, Oregon, where they
have lived all of their 20 years.
Janet and Helen .attended Grant
high before coming to Oregon.
When asked why they chose the
University, Helen replied, "I had
heard so much about the friendli
ness of the campus and of the good
liberal arts foundation.” Janet
stated, “I wanted to attend col
lege in Oregon and the University
has so much more than at OSC.
Also the general atmosphere is con
genial.” They are both in the
liberals arts college but Helen
thinks she will major in either
history or political science while
Janet is still undecided. ■
Their hobbies include skiing in
the winter and swimming in the
summer. For all year around they’ll
take dancing. Dancing naturally
leads to music preferences. Helen
holds out for popular music—
dreamy tunes and anything by
Liuie Armstrong. Janet shares her
feeling for Armstrong but says she
leans to very low brow stuff.
When queried as to their likes
and dislikes, Helen confessed that
she is partial to meats, with steaks
at the top of the list. She can’t
stand “these so-called sophisti
cated people who haven’t any
school spirit.’’ Janet expressed her
passion for all kinds of hors d’
oeurs. As for dislikes, “I hate being
mistaken for Helen and being called
"twin.”
Both Janet and Helen think that
school spirit has come up tremen
dously this term. Quote Janet, “The
influx of men is going to lower the
GPA but raise the morale. We
came for the education but the in
fluence of social life is bound to
influence oiir formerly cloistered
lives.” Quote Helen, “The return of
fraternity men to the campus and
thus back into campus activities is
definitely needed. We’re glad
they’re back.”

You people had better start
making plans for spring term now
and look into the possibilities oi
buying a jeep. Its weight capacity
is 5500 pounds and you know how
many bags of potato chops can be
consumed on one of those picnics!

We were dancing at a Eugene
nite-spot the other night and there
we were, “flat on our backs.” Have
you tried dancing on that wash
board since the flood ?
Since the absence of “Ma” from
a local ice cream parlor there are
two old time vaudeville actors who
run it now'. They give you service
with a clicking heel and a soft
shoe routine.
Sometime when you start out on
the quadrangle, slow down a bit
and read the plaque which tells
you w'ho the donors of this worth
while constriction are. You w'ill
find that the maze gives you at
least sixteen different ways to get
to the libe.
To those of you who are having
difficulty in becoming acclimated
to academic life, there is only one
pipe course left — Elements of
Plumbing.
Some use is to be finally made
of the pool in the art museum. We
hear the canoe fete will be given
there, followed by the U. of O.
Aquacade. Later it will be moved
to' Villard Hall where the “Old
Soldiers” have been dying for the
luxury of a square bathtub.
Before the war “Smokey,” the
well known campus dog, wouldn’t
look at girls, but the time came
when he, too, was saying, “C’est
la guerre.” He is now having a
hard time deciding whether to
break relations.

We learned that lipstick sales
have increased tremendously at a
drug store near the campus. Is it
the metal containers or the influ
ence of returning servicemen?

To break the routine of the an
nual Dad’s Day entertainment we
suggest a quick dip in the mill
race or shooting rats at the city
dump.

A professor in a class at the be
ginning of the term made this
emphatic statement: “Your at
tendance will count entirely on
your being here and your excuses
must be written on a legible piece
of paper.”

What's New in Fashions
By MARY HIBBITT
A new year, and new ideas are popping into the heads of
many of our smart coeds. Margaret Brosman has found a new
interest in a very wide, dark brown leather belt. The belt
measures 2 inches in width and is decorated*with shimmering
gold coins; she wears it with a smart yellow wool tailored dress.
Fran Bennett has a shocking green trouser-pleated skirt. The
effect of the pockets is very appealing both for use and ap
pearauce. shut nxe mis is par
ticularly nice to set-off crisp white
blouses.
Cheers for this classic because
it's Ardelle Kerrigan in a tailored
brown and white checked suit, the
smart dolman sleeves and high
round neck give this suit that new
look. Barbara Hickman is very
datable in her new Russian squirrel
fur coat. The coat is full length
with a tuxedo front and featuring
a double cuff. For all her young
and spirited airs Phyllis Schnell
has found the answer, a blue and
brown plaid suit. The jacket is
styled after the army, with a high
round neck and belted waist, the
skirt has two pleats in front and
back.
In a straight-from-the-shoulder
plaid suit you’ll see Claire Sering.
The suit is composed of a kick
pleat skirt and short straight
jacket with only one button at the
neck line. Gay gray is Marilyn
Rowling’s pass word and it would
be yours, too, if you had a dress
like hers in gray grosgrain; it is
styled with a wide collar that also
forms the sleeves.
Mary Margaret Ellsworth added
a new one to her list, a smooth as
cream gray wool dress. The bodice
is decorated with sparkling silver
sequins that catch your eye, and
tiny short sleeves that finish the
dress.
Margaret Wells has a luscious
new aqua wool suit.' The skirt is
tight with short slits at the bot
tom; the jacket features a high
neck line and gathered peplum and
is held together with smart clasps
at the neck and waist. Simplicity
and versatility is its mood—Miri
am Beck in her aqua gabardine
sport dress with three-quarter
sleeves which are fitted at the
cuff.
Fine tailoring at its key are the
words for Miki Metcalf in her
black-as-midnight suit, long dol
man sleeves, tiny lapel, and smart
gold buttons and a note of flattery
to this date-time suit. A suit to
claim the fashion spotlight is
CLASSIFIED
LOST — Small gold ring with
initials R. E. H. Reward. Ralph
Harlow, Phone 2707.
Shirlee Dillard’s royal blue, bellhop
special. The suit features a short
fitted jacket and tight skirt.
The social calendar is still work
ing hard and many things are in
store for the waiting coeds. This
week-end you will see most of them
at the Hoopsters Hop, and if you
are in doubt as to what to wear
you will find that campus clothes
will be in order. . . See you
there. . .
