Interesting to see the results as
the Pi Kaps turned lucky logger
last Tuesday and clipped their one
shade tree. Maybe now a little bet
ter view of the “tennis court”
across the street?
Excitement next to the tennis
court as the Chi Omega’s washing
machine wiring caught fire with
resultant fire-trucks and ambu
lances drawing the curious and
cold. Only loss was the SAE who
ran up to the third floor to help.
The Alpha Chi’s now report 50
per cent pins. Half-safe. Contrib
uting to the percentage is Dorothy
.Wonderly with Art Milne’s Beta
pin. Also, and they said it sur
prised, there is Sally Schilling with
Jerry Switzer’s Phi Delt badge.
However, Pat Foley’s Sigma Nu
pin won’t surprise. And Barbara
Nasberg knitting for suave ex
china chipper Keith Larson.
•Not to forget the lucky ones
who Are announcing engagements.
Alpha ki Ruth Clark to Bill Con
ley of Eugene. Alpha Xi Marcia
Anderson to Jim Embree. Alpha
Chi Virginia Mahon to Sigma Nu
Forrest Hedges. And the Kappas
finally with a representative to the
pansy ring as Phyl Schnell is rung
by Fiji alum Bob Streebig.
We’ll willingly pit our softball
“wide awake” team against the
sport page’s intramural dream
team. Darhl Davis will shag the
sparse connections with Don Lin
stedt’s pitching. Afraid our worthy
contemporaries in the press box
overlooked the best.
Chi Omega’s house dance sport

Junior weekend and parade harem

hands full.
Alpha Chi Wilma Watkins with

Chi Psi Bill Gross dropping the
badge with Alpha Xi Yvonne Hep
pley. Campbell clubber Clarence
Hall joining the squad with Alpha

with Alpha Xis when there’ll be
definite news from political boss
Virginia Wright and Campbell’s
Hank Panian. And if Joe Staples
and convert.
Susan Campbell’s Norma Jean
Noble betwixt the between as she
receives a VMI ring from mili

House dances this weekend. Let’s
hope there’s good weather. No fog.

Although Confusing
It's Good Reading
SPOKANE, May 20 (AP)—John
Law came to grips with the law
last night and lost.
John Law (that’s his name), 25,
surrendered himself to the sheriff’s
office and was charged with third
degree assault.
Law—John Lav/, that is—posted j
a $100 bond and was released. j

It’s Raining...
It s Pouring!!!
It’s raining-. It’s pouring.
One day it’s sunny and bright;
the next it’s rainy and stormy;
but both days are warm and
sticky. You want a raincoat that
will keep you dry as well as cool,
and is smart-looking too. Such a
raincoat is the new red denim
number with contrasting stitching
and a double row of buttons. The
sturdy material has the same feel
ing as your favorite pair of dunga
rees and is just as durable.
Then there is the coolie raincoat
that doubles as an over-everything
coat when it’s sunny. Made of red
corduroy, it has raglan sleeves and
a mandarin collar. With it you can
wear the matching coolie rain hat,
something very new in rainwear.
Another rather different twist
tc. the familiar raincoat is the cot
ton twill raincoat in plaid that
adds a touch of gaiety to a rainy
day. Hooded and double-breasted,
it has a detachable belt which can
be worn three different ways. The
pockets on each side are useful as
well as decorative.

Women s Sports
By Tom King
Noted Women’s Sports Authority
Scot kilts have developed into
pants—and the women wore ’em.
Ten gallon hats became the craze
of tough-skinned, leathery faced
men with twelve-shooters on each
hip—and women bought ’em.
Why even back in the age of
neolithic man women did all the
menial tasks while their then bet
ter halves stayed home and dis
cussed the day’s political report
that came to them via pre-historic
radio made out of African hemp
—but the gals soon switched this.
It comes as no surprise, then
that the fair sex, ornery cusses
that they are, have moved into an
other field, the athletic.
And there, ladies, you have the
eighth wonder of the world—and
certainly more of a wonder than
wonderful.
From a technical standpoint,
the feminine sex do irreparably
great damage to the sacred shrine
that is sports. Quite often, though,
they take out the damage on each
other. This squares accounts, so
we men have no kick here.
Wrestling is a particularly in
teresting form of skullduggery,
but when the femmies take a
whack at it—and each other—then

A Womans Place in News
Outlined by Matrix Speaker
JJon t try to be the back slapping, “one of the fellows” type
ot woman journalist, but don't go to the other extreme and be
"cute," Dorothy Carcw, former Associated Press financial w rit
er, told guests of Theta Sigma Phi's annual Matrix Tabic Thurs
day night.
Miss Carcw emphasized accuracy as one of the keys to suc
cess for women in journalism. Women are w orking on the same

the weaker sex loses its identity.
When our day of reckoning comes,
you can make us walk a plank or
have us eaten piecemeal by every
form of mammal and fish that
might be attracted by the feast,
but don’t toss us into the ring with
Matilda McAmazoji. Matilda’s bi
ceps are well developed, the which
cannot be said for her other as
pects.
And herein is our pet peeve.
This Matilda McAmazon, of whom
we speak, was, we remember, quite
a doll as one stage of her develop
ment.
Then one fatal afternoon milady
got a bit perturbed at us. In pre
vious incidents of a similar nature
it was simply a matter of doing a
dodging act amidst a battery of
rolling pins.
However, unfortunate as it was,
this time there was no rolling pin
basis as men in the newspaper
Held, she said, and must he able
to turn out “a mail's product.”
Speaking from personal ex
perience, Miss Carew gave sev
eral tips on successfully work
ing side by side with men. Her
advice was not to ask numerous
questions, but to figure problems
out for oneself. “Avoid cute copy,
at least until you become experi
enced,’ she said. “Also, don’t over
dress around the office.’’
Tapped as new members of The
ta Sigma Phi, women’s national
professional journalism fraternity,
were Anita Holmes, Ann Goodman,
and Marge Scandling, sophomores,
and Barbara Jeremiah, junior.
Honored at the dinner as the two
outstanding University freshmen
women in pre-journalism were
Gretchen Grondahl and Lorna Law
son. Anita Holmes was named as
the outstsanding sophomore wo
man. This was a repeat perform
ance for Miss Holmes, who was the
outstanding freshman woman last
year.
Three Eugene high school jour
nalists were also honored by the
Theta Sigs. From Eugene high
school came Mary Ellen Burrell,
daughter of O. K. Burrell, Univer
sity professor of business adminis
tration. Kitty Lou Shaw and Kath
ryn Ann Heidenreich, of Univer
sity and St. Marys’ high schools,
respectively, wcre^also honored.
with which Matilda might conk
us. So, being a. rather resourceful
gai, she started in on us in such
fashion as might stir the envy of
Strangler Lewis.
And Matilda, overjoyed at tho
prospect of using her finger nails
for some purpose other than to
manicure, never gave up her new ly
found form of recreation.
So you'll see her around the Pa
cific slopes these days barnstorm
ing from town to town, challeng
ing any cow-poke gal to a best two
out of three falls.
