her schooling, "one of the very
few girls In chemistry.”
Anne, a junior, spends many
hours studying and working in

For Anne, chemistry “involves
much work, but is very interest

girls in chemistry, Anne is rather
a unique student in that her

Emily Post gives big night advice
By RONNIE OWENS
Emerald Staff Writer
It is the night of November 21,
and you and your date are on the
way to dinner and the Homecom
ing dance celebrating Oregon's
victory over OSC. What is the
proper etiquette for the evening,
gala, and what does Emily Post
have to say about It?
Be prompt
When the big night arrives,
start dressing early enough to be
ready when your date comes after
I you. No one likes to wait!
Rule one in any book of eiquette
will decree that you remember
whose responsibility it is to open
! all doors.
If you are going to dinner and
-ire consulted as to the eating
j establishment you prefer, keep in
j rnind that the average college
man is dating within a limited
budget.
Upon arriving at the restaurant,
wait near the door until the
waiter or waitress shows-you to
a table. Decide what you want to
eat and give your choice to your
date, who will then do the order
ing for both of you.
Remember table manners
To make a dinner more enjoyable
practice proper table manners,
which include inconspicuously
spreading the napkin, using the
silverware from the outside in,
tipping the soup bowl away,
breaking bread into small pieces

officials) as one experience she
will never forget.
"Although my time at the Uni
versity of Oregon seems to have
been long ago, I will never for
get it. It was a very informative
time in my life and of -great
value to me," she said.

and buttering one at a time and, ,
of course, keeping your elbows
off the table!
At the dance the girl waits
while her date checks her coat
and then he escorts her onto the :
dance floor.
Trading dances
One gesture never out of style
is speaking to the chaperones. J
They are guests of the Univer-;
sity and the students.
Trading dances is not a com- |
riion practice, but if you and your
date wish to do so with other
couples whom you know, it is cer
tainly correct. In fact, it is ad
visable.
We won’t go into the hackneyed
last paragraph about kissing that
ends every etiquette column. We
think you should be a thinking
man (or girl) on that subject.
So the 1959 Homecoming dance
comes to an end with a "very suc
cessful evening (we hope).
