Colors different, too. 32 sheets, 16 envelopes, and a flippant blotter. Five assortments each a surprise you should give yourself.

The Delta Gammas were serious enough about getting it back, be cause when the Betas left to take in the candy passing of Monday night, they made an un successful invasion of the Beta house. ONE MAN'S POISON is only poison ivy and if you want to know about it, ask Bill "Spurs" Frank of the Sig Alph house who will tell you all about how to avoid getting poison ivy on picnics.

But Monday Kay retrieved the much talked about pin from Tom Woods to return it to Chuck, who gave it right back.

Picks Jack Cole on list of 100 best dressed male . . . undergrads When Sigma Nu Jack Cole took the 1940 BDOC honors he was only starting to exhibit his versa tility as a campus clothes expert. Last week he was picked by Col liers (in a survey including the prominent colleges of America) as one of the 100 best dressed under graduates. Colliers magazine, which has been running a series of articles on modern styles, is trying to obtain information concerning collegiate trends. One hundred stylish stu dents were notified by letter and were asked to fill in a question naire. They were also required to write a 200 word report on "Trends in Undergraduate Ap parel." On the basis of these, half of the hundred will be eliminated. Pick finalists Henrv L. Jackson, style editor nf Colliers, will then visit each of the remaining contestants and pick the ten best dressed college undergraduates. This picked group will meet and be rewarded by a trip, possibly to California. In his essay, Jack stressed the trend of shorter pants, v-neeked sweaters and covert cloth trousers. He stated that the most definite trend was toward stitching in all varieties of apparel. Cole also called attention to the fact that I nearly all styles were originated in ' Hollywood and came to the mid west directly from there or by way of wealthy young easterners. As an illustration, he pointed out that I nearly 50 trends had been traced ntv ii h "o university. The ten winners of the final prizes in the Colliers contest will probably be published in the first June issue of that weekly.

You can only tell by flux of fads . . . through colleges A student writer at Louisiana State university fears coeds there are getting into a rut because they haven't come up with any new fads recently. To prove his point he cites the following fads that recently blossomed at the fol lowing schools: At Smith college five girls ap peared for supper in very short skirts, all exactly alike but in dif ferent colors. California coeds blossomed out in Chinese coolie straw hats and dickies, leading to the suggestion that L.S.U. girls try frayed pick aninny straw hats. At Vassar recently the girls went on a hairdressing rampage, cutting bangs and wearing harle quin glasses. At Smith college a girl went to a dance with a single sapphire planted in a forehead curl. At Northwestern they have a special speech school bob really just another version of the Flor entine page boy. At WellesU y a student borrowed a milkman's suit and wore it for study during exam week. Now the gills can hardly study without their overalls. From Smith college also comes the craze for red flannel shirts and faded blue jeans. At Bryn Mawr they cram for exams in dungarees rolled to the knee and the wildest plaid shirts they can find.
