Mary Anna says ... Sweets, diamonds, steadies show up in social whirl A little pre-scason rush business along Dan Cupid's line. At the Pi Phi house two pledges woke the whole dormitory Sunday night to announce that Agnes Wanek and Jack Nelson, DU, are now go ire; steady. While last night the Theta's at last got the sweets they've been waiting for so long from Mary Marncll and Sigma Nu George Svoboda. Pearl Stuhr has a reason for being finger conscious these days. Saturday night George Galloway, Sigma Nu, came across with a diamond ring. The Alpha Xi Delts toll us that Eleanor Col lier is going steady with a new convertible roadster suppose they mean its owner Dave Beshore. WARNING to any little gal who's in the habit of calling the Beta house. Their second-floor telephone is right out in the hall about as private as the Grand Central station. Not long ago one of the Pi Phi pledges held a long and animated conver sation with one of the boys, to the amusement of half the Beta chap ter, who were lending moral sup port to the harassed brother, SIG ALPHS entertained at a buffet supper Sunday night. Ray Timbers was there with Tri Delt Ann Krause, Bruce Duncan with Kappa lbs Waugh, Jack Ray with Alpha Phi Pat Herminghaus, Bob Martin with Theta Marian Kidd, Bill Hin richs with DG Louise Malm burg and Joe Dye with Tects Tal bot, also DG. Incidentally, one of the Delta Gamma's told us that Teets' beautiful romance at the Beta house is about on the rocks and Joe Dye seems to be very much in the running right now. DIE HARDS are the Fiji's who were quite per ' turbed at the disclosure of their Bill Hines hoax. They even re sorted to having a lioy from Ore gon impersonate the mythical 'so cialite," and the whole Phi Gam chapter is sticking to their story so that we can't help looking at the chapter with renewed admir ation if only for their spunk.

Valentine Greetings Scud Flowers for o Valentine Also We Cany a Complete Assortment of Valentine Cards 'REY ( 1338 O St. F Valentine's day brings tokens to sweethearts Again comes the time of year when people can be affectionate without being maudlin. Yes, you guessed it. it's Valentine Dav. Every magazine in February euner nas L.incom, Washington or Valentine's Dav featured on its cover. In one of the more popular women s magazines we find hats which are huire red felt hat made in the shape of a heart. Cute, we'd say, Dut ratner impractical, in some cases, after Feb. 14. Another magazine features another big red heart, not a hat this time, but an accessory to a pin haninc. For that ever present necessity of present-giving on this day, there are many suggestions. If we ex pected a present, we think that we a 311st arop a hint about a lovely little necklace of painted wooden hearts strung on a leather thong. Or there are bracelets made of anchored hearts, silver hearts strung on chains, or hearts made into lockets. In truth, vou can now keep somebody in your heart wun one or mese. The least ingenious can always give that present which is easiest to find and sure to please, a big heart-shaped box of candy. If St. Valentine wouldn't he sur prised at what his little habit of sending greetings to friends on February 14 has come to, we miss our guess.
