FuR A LONG TIME we’ve suspected that today’s college man would no longer “gladly die for dear old Siwash.” Neither does he play ukuleles and sing “Alma Mater’’ at the drop of a beanie. We believe, too, that when it comes to sportshirts the college man is no different from his older brother in town. He doesn t go for fads and screwball styles. But he does go for smartness, good work manship ... and above all, value. That is why we believe you'll like the new selection of sportshirts by Man hattan «. For they have all these qualities, plus a distinctive air that sets them above the ordinary shirt. So ask for Manhattan ... the college man's sportshirt. Shirts, neckwear, Underwear, pajamas, sportshirts, beachwear and handkerchief* ! NOTHING . Beats q White Shirt .
