Daring Sigma Kappa House Adds
'New Look' to Campus Sororities
The “new look” in design has
influenced campus sorority house
architecture, with semi-comple
ti.on of the Sigma Kappa house, lo
cated at 851 E. 15th St., between
the Kappa Kappa Gamma and Phi
Delta Theta houses.
This modern sorority house,
informing in style with latest
architectural trends, was started
last April by general contractors
XV. W. Hardie and Son, Eugene.
Enough was completed this Sep
tember to allow members to move
in.
Eugene architects Wilmsen and
Endicott carried out an exterior
theme of Washington red cedar
siding with vertical white pine. A
combination of colors are used to
contrast with cedar on me aoois
and windows.
The interior continues the mod
ernistic theme, using walls of glass
in first floor rooms. The living and
dining rooms open onto a large
semi-covered terrace with an out
door fireplace. The basement, not
yet finished—will include space for
recreation, chapter meetings, stor
age and laundry. Study facilities
for 50 women are provided on the
second story, with two sleeping
porches on the third floor.
Radiant heating panels and a
combination flourescent and in
candescent lighting system with
recessed and semi-indirect fixtures
are used throughout.

Oregano
Chief’ Tells
1950 Plans
A new type cover will be a fea
ture of the 1950 Oregana, Editor
Larry Davidson disclosed today.
Other innovations in this years’
book will include an ultra-modern
layout, and four coeds to replace
the usual Miss Oregana.
“A Year to Remember" is the
theme of the annual. More exten
sive campus coverage than in pre
vious years, a layout similar to
that of Holiday magazine, and
more representative pictures and
captions are ways in which David
son hopes to make this yea’s book
retain the All-American honors
won by previous Oreganas.
DRESS RESTRICTIONS
Restrictions have been made
this year concerning the type of
clothing students may wear when
having house pictures taken.
Women are asked by Davidson
not to wear peter pan collars,
jackets with piping, neutral-color
sweaters, or beads. He suggests
V-neck blouses or dark jackets
with white sweater, white jackets
with dark sweaters, or dark cardi
pan iar.kets.
NO BOW TIES
Men may wear white shirts, ties,
and suit coats. The only request is
that they do not wear bow ties.
“All clothing restrictions were
made for the sake of appearance,”
explained Davidson. “Too much
uniformity of dress in various liv
ing organization pictures detracts
from individuals and good photo
graphic effects.”
Other restrictions have been
made solely from the standpoint of
good photography.
PICTURES SOON
Photography of living organiza
tion members will take place be
tween October 3 and November 18
this year. Schedule will be sent to
the various houses soon, with men’s
houses set to be photographed first.
No applications for work on the
Oregana are being accepted by
Davidson at this time; however stu
dents may apply November 5 when
the yearbook holds its annual open
house in its McArthur Court offices.
Bunion Derby Head
Florence Hansen, junior, has been
named chairman of the AWS Bun
ion Derby, President Marie Lom
bard announced yesterday.
Assisting Miss Hansen will be
Ann Gillenwater, publicity chair
man, and Shirley Hillai’d, collec
tions.
The event is scheduled for Satur
day night, October 1.

Art Buildgings
Get Face-Lifting
During Summer
Art students will work in im
proved surroundings this year, re
sulting from general face-lifting
work done on the art and archi
tecture building and annex during
the summer.
A small seminar or lounge room
for students has been added in the
main building. It contains a spe
cial library from which students
will be able to borrow books at
any time.
The annex, now has new tables,
lockers and other equipment; ac
coustical board ceilings will make
the rooms sound absorbent. The
lecture room is finished and a light

ments in color.
All floors have been refinished,
painting props repaired, and new
equipment added, including tubular
steel chairs in the sketch room.

Frosh Turn Tables
University of British Columbia
freshmen turned the table on up
perclassmen yesterday when they
tossed 80 Engineering students
into the campus lily pond.
The Engineers had intended to
dunk all frosh not wearing proper
“orientation” clothing. They term
ed the boomerang attack by the
frosh “highly unfair.”
“Any freshman ought to con
sider it an honor to be chucked into
the pond by an Engineer,” the drip
ping upperclassmen contended.
