f
. :
Reona Hermann of the Dorm and Tri Delt Marilyn Lowe
might be models from Vogue in their new spring outfits
from Hovland-Swanson's. Reona's suit is apple green
trimmed with scallops of black braid. Her matching top
per features twin scrolls of black braid down the front.
The hat, a mass of white flowers looks perky on Reona's
short blonde curie. Her purse a small black faille with
large plastic handles. Marilyn's black and white checked
suit with a belted jacket and a black drawstring purse
complete her outfit.
Shoot to Me the Chapcau, Or,
UN Coed Has Hats in Belfry!
BY RUTH KORB.
I stumbled into one of Lin
coln's best ladies' stores, and
shoved my fat body into the ele
vator. As soon as th woman
next to me removed her albow
from my mouth, I gasped, "Sec
ond floor, please!" After utter
ing these gems of wisdom, I
spread my hidden wings and
flew from the very back of the
elevator, to land perfectly prone
on the oak floor of the second
story.
- After spitting a few shavings
out from between my teeth, I
staggered up to the hat depart
ment and said, in a very proud
and boastful tone, "I want to
buy a hat!" The saleslady smiled
sweetly, and answered, "Most
people do when they come to this
department." Even this bit of
sage advice could not squelch my
happy spirits, for I was going to
get a new spring hat. Rah!
Cote Number.
I placed myself In front of a
mirror, combed my hair out of
my eyes, wiped the lipstick off
my nose, and smiled at my beau
tiful reflection. Some new sci
entific invention, no doubt The
saleslady approached with a "cute
little number," so she said, and
plunked it on my haid. I swear
that somebody had changed the
mirror in that few minutes. I
took one look at myself, jumped
to a beautiful brace and spent
the next ten minutes saluting and
singing, "Anchors Aweigh!" The

saleslady pulled a little judo on
me, and I was sitting down in the
chair before I knew it.
"But madam," she said, "it's
the newest thing out!" I retorted,
Well, put it back. I haven't
joined the Waves yet." The sales
lady, whom I would prefer to call
Mabel, stuck out her lower lip in
a pensive pout, grabbed the hat
from my head, stomped into the
back room, and had a god cry
for fifteen minutes.
Food for Snood.
When she finally returned, she
carried with her a lunch, or at
least I thought it was a lunch
I happened to be starved, so I
snatched it from her hand and
started chewing. Mabel had a
fit and an attack of St. Vitus
dance before she finally got it
away from me. "It goes on your
head, madam, not in your mouth!
She threw the conglomeration on
my square head, and I ventured
a peek in the mirror. On me, it
looked like Joe's Blue Plate spe
rial, 75c. I said "No," in such
a great voice that Mabel scurried
back to the room and cried again
for fifteen minutes.
This went on for two hours. I
tried on hats that made me look
like a bird on the wing, a Rus
sian Cossack, a baby Hat-top, ana
a hnwl of filnhabet sour). Mabel
ran out of tears and I ran out 01
nuti'pnre. Finally I mit on my
coat, tossed my head in the air,
and ift without a word to any'
Rn T would wear my stock'
ing cap another year. Who cares i

From here this looks like a big
weekend. There's the big R Street
party tonight and Saturday night
is all taken care of, too. All kinds
of rumors are circulating around
the campus about who will be
crowned queen at the R Street
party. At this point your guess
is as good as anyone else's. Ruth
Ann Finkle, AOPi, and Kenny
Christiansen, Beta, will be there
to verify their guess. Another
AOPi, Joan will take in the
affair with 1 Sig Dick Stone.
Blonde M-.. j Engstrom will
dance with Jim Worchester of the
Fiji hut.
Secrets!
DG Kay Detweiier has icedved
some lovely flowers, but the ques
tion . is who from! People are
getting mighty secretive lately.
Take the case of AOPI Betty
Tobin. She not only won't say
whom she is going to Chicago to
see, but it took a third degree
to get her to' admit she s going
at all this weekend.
Doug Nelson, Phi Delt, swears
he isn't going steady with Alpha
Chi Mary Louise Weidman any
more. Just to make it a little
easier to believe he varies his
dates with Wiedie by adding a
few with DG Nell Scott.
Taking advantage of the picnic
weather Wednesday night were
Thetas Charis Wells and Gretchen
Smith with ATO Stichnoth and
Dean Neill, Beta. Reports say
it was a good deal.
Monday Night's Candy.
Monday night saw candy pass
ings galore. Guess that proves
that in the spring a young man's
fancy turns to what a girl has
been thinking of all year long.
Jan Horn finally came across with
candy for the Tri Delts and kisses
for Dean Messman and the Sig
Eps. Ed Cizek and the Sig Alphs
marched over to the Dorm annex
to collect their share of Marion
Eloe's candy passing. Margaret
Bowman treated the Palladians to
the sweet stuff acknowledging her
engagement to Corp. Jack Frost.
Ethee Lashinsky furnished the
SDT's with candy when she an
nounced her pinning to Lt. Arnie
Roseman, SAM from Minnesota.
AOPi Mary Alice Douthit has a
diamond from Lt. Mel Renard, but
as yet no word of a candy pass
ing has drifted over the grapevine.
Beta Dick Klopp is back on the
campus on furlough. We wonder
how this will affect little Margie
Munson, Alpha Phi.
