Friday, April 12, 1946 THE NEBRASKAN Page 5 Romance is definitely the style as of late... Proof might be the pleasant expression on Blackie Blanchard's face accounted for only by the return of her pin mate, Gene Rainey. Gene will be here this weekend, and no one blames Blackie for her sudden happy gesture. Diamonds are in the air also, and the town of Ashland did well by Mr. Cupid and U.N. with Merna Newsham's return from spring vacation with diamond and news of her engage ment to ex-army man Don Lehr . . . not to forget the recent en gagement of Mary Lou Laune to Joe Moss of same city. We offer congrats to this foursome cuz we think it's swell. Another proof of this thing called romance is the spring va cation marriage of Jane Elwell to Jack Christopher who goes to school in California. Isn't it shame that some people have all of the luck?

Shirlee Hammond has just the thing set aside for that hot, sultry day soon to come. A cool, brown cotton dress with slight cap sleeves is her choice. The dress is plainly made and is trimmed with a light blue braid around the neckline and down the front.

Causing "Ohs" and "Ahs" from both the girls and the boys is Mary Kay Mae in her large checked royal blue jacket with the pleated skirt of a correspond ing blue. This petti suit is just the thing to bring out the gleam in her already starry blue eyes.
