University of Oregon Summer Session htip://uosummer.uoregon.edii/ Fashion show continued from page 1 Despite a slow start because of technical difficulties, the e\cent was deemed a success by those in volved. The first segment of the fashion show, which was mostly spon sored by Syntax clothing, featured traditional Asian wear from Korea, the Philippines, China, Japan, Africa, India and Nepal. “These particular fashions were unique to American dress, because each item represented historical orientation that many of the audi (i / thought the show was successful. The energy was incredible and there was more diversity within the crowd this year. Sugie Hong APASU programs coordinator rt ence members like myself had never seen,” said Glen Park, a re cent University graduate. For those interested in more conventional dress, models exhib ited a classic collection of formal wear. Female models strutted their stuff with silk dresses and ball gowns, while the men flashed standard black, red and suede suits. The casual segment included models dressed in spring and sum mer clothing and urban wear. Styles for women ranged from flo ral design dresses and skirts to or ange T-shirts and flared jeans. The men dressed in basic shirts and khakis. The show also included active wear, such as athletic gear and ap parel to wear to clubs. Model Masahiro Yokoy said he was glad to be part of an event dedicated to the Asian community. “I thought it was great,” he said. “I met a lot of people.” Yokoy, a junior business major, said his favorite outfit was the tra ditional Asian wear. “My kimono was pretty tight,” he said. Audience member Sheloman Byrd said Syntax had some “hap pening threads” and it was “cool” to see so many different people come together at the event. Sophomore pre-journalism ma jor Pauline Kim said she likes the fashion show because it’s a great way for students to become famil iar with campus diversity and learn more about Asian culture. “It’s for everyone,” she said. “It’s great entertainment.” Moss continued from page 1 “We plan to mow the grass there and maintain the lots,” he said. Eyster said the houses are being relocated because “it didn’t make sense financially for the Universi ty to continue to operate them. They were in very bad physical shape.” Laura Marriott, "president of the Fairmount Neighbors, said that University Housing’s actions were “not really shocking at all.” Mar riott said that Vishanoff acts on his own and does not represent the neighborhood. Following the meeting, Grant was arrested. He said that he, Vis hanoff and a few other area resi dents walked to his house at 1914 E. 17th St. to plant protest signs in the yard and continue discussion of the issue. Grant said he became angry with a campus security offi cer who was patrolling the area and yelled obscenities as the offi cer drove past. The campus securi ty officer then called in an EPD of ficer, who arrested him for disorderly conduct. 1 011724 Seeking Jewish students for Leadership Positions O Executive board positions available # various group chairperson positions available course credit available/no experience necessary Elections are Wednesday, May 2 at 6 pm Oregon Hillel House 1059 Hilyard 1 block north of Sacred Heart Contact Hillel for position descriptions Phone: 343-8920 Fax: 343-4552 ----Email: orhillel@pond.net Log on to WWW.d3ily6mcr2ld.COm to vote in our weekly news polls.
