Coed’s Clothesline
By Maryfran Lorain and Kay Kuckenberg
Traveling this summer? Are you tired of just looking at travel
folders without going anywhere, and have decided this is going to
be your summer for seeing the “world” ?
Okay! But what to wear? Naturally this depends almost entirely
upon your destination. On a trip to Hawaii, which many are planning
for this summer, light clothes of all styles, colors and fabrics are in
order. Hats, except for large straws, are seldom worn in the Islands.
Cotton, as in the past, is the leading fabric. Light colored cottons are
in demand for bathing suits, as they are quick drying, easily manage
able, and flattering. Cotton formals are also the order of the day, with
separate skirts and blouses playing an important role. Joan Nelson,
one of the lucky girls making this trip, is taking a summery, bift prac
tical, strapless cotton formal. Joann’s dress has a white background
sprinkled with various colored flowers. It is a dress that is easy to
pack and yet comes out of a suitcase looking fresh. Also Hawaii bound
are Roberta Tussing, Ann Darby, and Luwayne Engwall, who seem to
have a yen for cottons judging by the pert outfits they are already
wearing on the campus.
Cottons Receive Honors
Sharing top honors with cottons are the ever popular rayons and
silks. These pack easily, take up little space, and seldom wrinkle. Al
ways pretty, and extremely feminine, they make excellent afternoon
dresses, as well as glamorous evening gowns. Marilyn Winetrout plans
to include several of these versatile silks in her wardrobe for Hawaii.
Wraps are usually limited to short jackets, preferably the new fly
away jackets that are so popular today. Sweaters have come into their
own as wraps for even the dressiest outfits.
Light weight suits of sharkskin, linen, and chambray are smart and
cool. With them, over-the-shoulder bags are particularly appropriate.
Cynthia Griffin, also intending to make Hawaii her home this summer,
shows how fashionable and chic these bags can be.
Destination Europe
If Europe is your destination, the major test your clothes must
pass is taking up little space. Boat transportation as scarce as it is,
many girls are finding themselves flying across the Atantic, so cutting
down on the number of clothes to be taken is important. For European
travel you must pack wisely to be able to dress smartly. For this rea
son, quick drying nylons, and uncrushable cottons as Carolyn Parker
and Virginia Huston are proving by their selection of clothes.. These
outfits should be interchangeable for variety. Shoes should be kept at
a minimum for they take valuable space. European travelers should
remember to avoid white, which soils easily, and laundry service is
difficult, if not impossible to obtain. Sally Waller and Casey Jones, also
future European travelers, will be sure to keep this fact in mind when
packing their grips.
Last, but not least, there is the item of luggage. Luggage should
be lightweight and easy to handle, for you may have to carry your
own bags in many parts of Europe. Slip covers are very necessary to
protect suitcases in travel against the hard handling they may receive.
The newest covers are being shown in gay plaids and checks.
You Want to be Different?
By Hazel Rawson Cades
There are times when a girl
feels the need of doing herself over.
A flash of insight or a clear view
in a full-length mirror tells you
that your decorating plan no long
er fills the bill. Or suddenly you’re
just plain bored with the way you
look. Whatever the stimulus, if you
decide to do something about your
self there’s no time like the pres
ent.
Time to Change Colors'.'
Every cataloging system needs
occasional revision. Has that red
hair deepened to auburn? Have
your skin tones darkened or grown
more delicate ? Before you shop for
new spring clothes why not check
your makeup in a good light? Or
better still stop at a cosmetic coun
ter and get expert advice. You may
find that with a fresher makeup
the black you had begun to think
was wrong for you still looks right.
Or that a warmer-toned makeup
and one of the new spring costume
colors add up to a prettier you.
Time to Change Lines?
Check your hairdo. Maybe you're
a bigger girl now and that mop of
hair should be pruned for symme
try. Perhaps your face and neck
are thinner and you need a hairdo
with more fullness at the sides.
Has your hairline slipped back?
Try the flattery of short soft
bangs. Throat and lower part of
face heavier? Have your hair cut
shorter or arrange it up off the
neck. Eyebrows need remodeling ?
Overgrown they clutter; over
plucked they look hard. Tweeze
with care. Keep the space above
the nose clear (inner points of
brows aligned with corners of
eyes). Remove wandering hairs
and shorten outer ends of brows
slightly if they dip too far and pull
down your face. For sparse pale
brows—the eyebrow pencil!
Time to Change Technique?
Has last year’s grooming plan
outlived its usefulness ? In the
teens, oil glands may become more
active, making it necessary to
wash the face and hair oftener and
to use corrective preparations. The
older skin often requires more pro
tection. The use of different cos
metics may make necessary differ
ent methods of skin care. For ex
ample, those lovely long lasting
tinted makeup bases do need extra
cleansing for complete removal.
Time to Change Point of View
Don't make the mistake of be
coming type-set: Cute little girls
grow up. Campus goes to business.
The tailored type some day may
look better in dressmaker suits,
softer hairdos and gentler makeup.
The fluffy type may develop a need
for chic simplicity. Your face, your
hair, your figure inevitably change
from year to year. Keep a sharp
lookout and see that your good
looks plan keeps up with you.

You Name It
By Fred Young
Still lots of time left in our
“name the column” contest. Who
ever submits the best title wins
two cartons of Phillip Morris cig
arettes with the runner-up receiv
ing one carton. The prize might go
to Editor Yates for his "You Name
It." Deadline is this Saturday noon,
and entries are to be left in the
editor’s office at the Emerald
shack.
The balmy weather seemed to
have the same or some effect on
the campus with many mergers
being made and the like. The
ADPis took stock and found Jonnie
Baker with Roger Mockford’s The
ta Chi pin, Myrle<"n Larson with a
sparkler from Sig Ep Willard
Christenson, and also engaged Pam
Williams to Pat Byrne, a Stanford
Sigma Nu.
Pi Phi Aileen Betschart decided
April 1st to be a good day to an
nounced her engagement to a
"friend” back home in California.
Other Pi Phi listings feature Con
nie Jackson with Don Fair’s Theta
Chi badge. And not to be over
looked is Pi Phi president Ann
Gillenwater’s snaring of C. Perry
Mobley’s White Cross.
The Kappa clan celebrated Sal
ly Lucas’ recent engagement to
John Madden, ex-U. of O. Also
Punky Fletcher’s acquisition of
Lynn Hamilton’s ATO pin.
Argyle action taking plage as
Theta Georgie Oberteuffer purls
some for SAE Don Dunn.
Other Theta news says that
Jeanne Hoffman and Betsy Stelle
weren’t really fooled by the "April
Fool” tag on the mammoth box de
livered by Bob Gray and Lin Sloan
which after great exploration was
found to contain their Sigma Chi
pins. It turned out no one was
foolin’.
AOPi Joan Nichols has been
spotted sporting Raph Rathjen’s
Kappa Sig badge. Did anyone
mention AOPi Rene Cowell’s en
gagement to Sigma Nu grad Ray
Gannett in New York’s Hotel As
tor? Girl going steadily is Elaine
Nemerovsky with Chi Psi Ken Sax
on.
Unheedful of the sage advice of
the wise upperclassmen Phi Delt
frosh Gene Moody and Jim King
gave pins to Dorothy Enghert of
Portland and Sue Snook, OSC Chi
O. We’d heard dealing with the
Phi Delta is risky business as they
are apt to give you the stall.
The Fijis report the way they
figure it progress was made over
the weekend. No pins were re
turned. And, Kay Heidenrich and
Paul Smith were representing the
Red Cross at the “Y” retreat this
weekend.
The Alpha Phis report business
as usual with the croquet course
already in mid-season shape. Also,
Mary Moser with ATO Don Thom
as’ pin. And were Nancy Hodecker
and Chi Psi Dick Cooksey really
fooling about their first of April
Engagement? It isn’t considered
water under the bridge down there
any more.
Our honorary isn't completely
organized yet. We still have a few
wires to tap as our coverage be
comes more comprehensive, so
hang with us.
And remember.'A maximum of
smoking for a minimum of think
