VOTING TODAY, FRIDAY
Beous Seek Style, Quality,
Harmony in Choice of Attire
Oregon’s six ’•best-dressed”
men. Beau Brummell finalists,
list nearly klentical reasons for
selecting the clothes they do and
also offer some suggestions for
any future similar contests.
Sid Woodbury ...
... an ATO sophomore, keeps
three things in mind when he’s
selecting clothes—a moderate
price, something not too flashy,
and a current popular style. Sid
thinks the contest, since it is so
new, should be clarified com
pletely for students before the
judging interviews. However,
he's heard lots of favorable com
ments and the idea .appears to
be successful.
Dick Coleman ...
... a senior and member of
Phi Delta Theta, says that
clothes must possess completely
these three things - fine quality,
versatile color, and contemporary
style. The contest, Dick said,
seems to be making men on
campus aware of their clothes,
but whether it will actually
change the mode of dress can’t
be determined yet. In case of a
future contest, Dick suggests
that it run over a longer period
of time and that candidates be
judged wearing different en
sembles for three predetermined
occasions.
Students are to vote on the
ballots provided in the Emerald
—clipping them out and casting
all votes in the Co-op. Voting will
take place today and tomorrow
until 4 p.m. The winner will be
presented at the “Friday at 4”
in the fishbowl.
Bob Baker...
... a junior and Phi Psi mem
ber, notices appearance, style,
and quality in his clothes selec
tion. Bob said the Beau Brum
mell contest didn't seem to make
boys more “clothes conscious”
but they certainly were discuss
ing the contest.
Stan Savage ...
... senior, and SAE member,
looks also for quality, style, and
originality when he’s buying
clothes. The contest, he asserts,
has helped boys become more
conscious of clothing and their
general appearance. Stan sug
gested, in the event of a future
contest, that women’s houses also
select men to create more can
didates and that there be more
than one elimination in judging.
Dick Campbell... -
... senior and member of
Campbell club, thinks color har
mony, conservative cut, and a
| subdued contrast are important
in clothing. Dick couldn’t tell
whether the contest was having
any effect on men’s clothing but.
he believes a future contest
should have more advanced pub
licity and that candidates should
be judged in more than one outfit.
Art Weber...
... a Sigma Chi member and a
junior, thinks style, type of ma
terial, and workmanship are im
portant in selecting clothes. Art
has heard many comments on the
contest so the boys are certainly
aware of it. The results of the
contest will be shown better at
a later date. He thinks there
should be more advanced adver
tising if the “Beau Brummell”
idea is carried out again next
year.
for schools.and courses of the
University as a result of Wednes
day’s faculty meeting.
G. N. Belknap. University edi
tor and secretary of the faculty,
has announced plans of major
additions to the curriculum of
the PE school to lead to a bache
lor's degree in recreation.
The new major will parallel
majors in physical education and
health education.
Belknap stated there will be a
major change in the sociology
department with some courses
eliminated and the addition of
some new phases of the science.
The faculty approved minor
revision of restrictions by the
music department on t*he amount
of credit to be allowed for ap
plied music practice.
Belknap voiced confidence in
approval of the faculty's plans
by the Oregon state board of
higher education.
