DRESS
OF
THE WEEK
Seeking the best representative
of the typical, day-by-day school
going dress, the fashion force sur
veyed the campus scene yesterday
and selected something more so
phisticated than Sloppy Joe,
smoother than saddle shoes and
knee-high socks. Criterion for
class clothes, we decided, was
"trim yet feminine and well-tail
ored."
The "find" was of crepe in a
soft, mellow, beige-gold, cut in
lines of what is being called "the
softer shirtwaist." Trim "waist, a
pair of pockets below the shoul
der, where the short sleeves were
gathered fully, and a small collar
sound simple enough, but the
skirt! the skirt was stitched all
around into many, many sleek,
small pleats.
Sole contrast: a sash-like belt
of deep brown crushed leather, and
leather buttons up the front of the
same color.
As our judging committee saw
it, the dress was draped on Jeanne
Craig, an arts and science fresh
man. Jeanne has dark hair and
eyes, skin with a deep glow which
was heightened by the dress. In
buying her clothes, she likes to
stick to "simple things." She be
longs to Pi Beta Phi.

Convocation
(Continued From rage 1.)
These people came seeking adven
ture, escaping oppression, famine,
army service, ami saw in America
a land of opportunity and refuge.
This immigration of the last
hundred years broukf. in a dozen
new religions, fifty new languages,
and hundreds of new dialects,"
Adamic declared. He explained
that the new people who did not
settle in foreign sections of the
great cities went on the land. Ne
braska received its share of Ger
mans, Poles, and Bohemians, who
became "sturdy citizens." All these
immigrants tended to settle in ser
tain sections where their fellow
countrymen were already located.
All of the engineering works of
this time were constructed partly
by immigrant labor.
We don't realize opportunities.
The lecturer believes that most
of us are unaware of our oppor
tunities to create culture from
these heterogeneous peoples. "It is
TAKE IT FROM A MAN
Yea veri ly, for she hath the
'makings7 of a charming girl
by Paul Svoboda.
The quality of charm is not
strained. It droppeth as the gentle
rain from heaven upon the place
beneath. It is twice blessed. It
blesseth him that giveth and him
that receiveth.
Shakespeare saith something
like this a long time ago but he
was talking about mercy. We
talketh, in case you haven't no
ticed, about charm. This double
edged blessing evidenceth itself no
better than in any sorority dorm
or anything above the first floor.
Those of us who have entered
this no man's land on pretext of
replacing blown fuses or other
subter-fuses have been "shocked"
high time that we take stock of
our resources, and try to combine
them or Americans will feel less
at home In America and the Amer
ican dream will become a night
mare," he warned.
to find those lovely pieces of femi
ninity with whom we danced only
a few hours before now an oily
mess of creams and lotions and
nightmarish hairdo's. All for the
sake of charm.
Thus benefiteth the women.
But how doth Cecil College clip
coupons on charm? Verily, I say
unto you, he reapeth harvests of
female vanity. For 'tis because of
his presence that the charm cup
of women overfloweth and he is
able to sup upon the sparing drops
that the frugal woman freeth.
Clothes do a lot for charm but
as one bright lad once puteth it,
clothes maketh the woman what
she is but not as she should be.
Ah, but the artifices of woman!
She taketh off nature's gift of
eyebrows and replaces therewith
a sweeping line of brownish paint.
She coloreth the lip with ruby red
and her prints are used against
