THEY'RE OFF! All set for a bis week-end are Mardclle Buss left,
Robin Rauch, center and Marilyn Dawson. The pals wear classic
campus garb suitable for any occasion whether it be the game,
freshman hop, or church mixer.
Attention, Blind-Daters;
End Your Confusion!
To save future embarrassment,
this information is offered to
prospective blind-daters, whether
among the ignorant frosh class or
the unobserving upperclassmen.
As a supplement to little black
address books and fraternity dat
ing bureaus, this knowledge is
necessary for a normal social life.
Embarrassing situations fre
quently arise when one attempts
to date the girl in the next seat
in biology class, only to discover
that she's a sorority sister of his
pinmate. At this point, a knowl
edge of the various pledge rib
bons proves itself expedient.
Heed well this warning, so that
next time it will be evident that
the girl wearing the red ribbon in
the next booth at the Crib is an
A. O. Pi and not a prospective
bull fighter. Also- the girls seen
on campus wearing the green and
white aren't 4-H representatives,
they're Kappa Delt pledges.
S K's Choose Lavender.
Not lavender and old lace, but
lavender and maroon are the
choice of the Sigma Kappas. The
holiday-conscious Thetas wear the
black and gold colors of Hallow
e'en. This does not imply, how
ever, that there is any resem
blance between the proverbial
witches and the Thetas for they
are seldom seen riding on brooms
since most have a preference for
convertibles.
Reminding you that there are
only 73 more shopping days until
Christmas, Alpha Chis wear their
red and green. A little more dif
ficult to decipher are the colors of
Alpha Phi, bordeaux and silver.
Bordeaux may be interpreted in
several different waysas a bev
erage, fungicide or city in south
ern France. From this you can
draw your own conclusion.

Parisian sophistication to the list
with theh- ribbons of cafe au lait
and old blue. For those not ma
joring in French, cafe au lait
means coffee with cream. (We
didn't know it either.) Another
mystifying color combination is
the brown and mode of the Gam
ma Phis. (According to Web
ster's Collegiate Dictionary
abridged form, fifth edition, mode
is "a color approaching drab, but
of somewhat lr.wer saturation and
higher in brilliance." Now do you
understand?)
Trying to outdo the others, the
Alpha Xi's wear "double" blue
and gold. You can explain that
one! The Pi Phis get back to
reality with their ribbons of wine
and light blue, but the Chi O's in
dulge in another flight of fancy
with cardinal and straw as their
colors. These, incidentally, are
the same colors reflected in their
house at 480 No. 16.
Kappas Prefer Boys.
The Kappa light blue and dark
blue signifies their preference for
boys. The triple ribbons of the
Tri Delts are distinguished by
their silver, gold, and blue colors
from the bronze, pink, and blue
of the D. G.'s.
If you are still confused, or
have a short memory, perhaps
you'd better try dating actives.
University Dames lo Give
Parly for Students' Wives
The University Dames are
sponsoring a get acquainted party
for all the university students'
wives on Thursday, Sept. 30, at 8
p. m. at Ellen Smith hall. The
purpose of this party is to help
the new girls get acquainted with
the Dames and their organization
and to promote university activ
ities. budget

Emily Ileinie, fast becoming
one of the most quotable persons
on campus, has come up with an
other retort. Her parting comment
to a recent date was, "Well! H's
been an experience!"
One of the cuter new couples is
Janice Lindquist and Cliff Chris
tensen. They can be seen almost
any afternoon "coking'' in the
Crib.
Big Question: How did the re
cent "marriage plans" of Duane
Demaree affect his date situation?
Duane had everybody thinking
that he was going to be married
Sunday to a Norfolk girl one
doesn't scoff at a marriage license.
Evidently someone was kidding,
'cause Duane is still single. . . .
Surprise?
Nancy Howie may surprise her
Kappa sisters by marriage in De
cember. There are big reports on
her summer romance with a big
Texan. Attention Guy Dean!
Who is the mystery girl that
Bud Buckley is currently squiring
about town? The dark-haired girl
has not yet been identified by
Bud's friends.
A quick prevue of week-end
plans shows that Sunday's column
may be a scorcher if there is
anyone left to read it. What with
the game, open houses, and Harry
James, it'll be a blue Monday.
Topping the roster of Univer
sity events tonight are the vari
ous church get-togethers. Gay
blades Chuck Pederson and
Dave Neely are going all out
for the "date or drag" affair' at
the Uni Episcopal. Even the fac
ulty will be there according to
"Prexy" Faulkner, who has
been contributing her talents to
the decorations and punch. See
you all there .
They'll Chain Them Next
Sigma Kappas, Alpha Phis, and
Chi Omegas it is too late to warn
you about "portable" furniture,
but we can advise a thorough
canvas of local fraternity houses.
Alertness paid the other day for
Kathy Swingle while on phone
duty. The Lincoln theatre award
ed her two free tickets to the
movies this week-end for naming
the current show. Anyone like to
see "Luxury Liner" with Kathy
this week-end?
Wonder if Win Wyman and
Carmen Christoffel will ever get
together? We nominate them as
"couple most likely to succeed."
Boy Meets Girl
Charles Newell has a gripe
This summer he met a girl in
Oregon and called it "the real
thing." Now that he's back in
school, he's dated a certain Pi
Phi three times. Well, on the night
of that third date the girl from
Oregon called the Sigma Nu
house for him. The person who

With swift, hehind-the-scenes

BABW 'Hello GirV
To Highlight Dance
Highlighting the fifth annual
"Hello Dance," to be given Friday,
Oct. 1, from 9 to 12 p. m., in the
Student Union ballroom, will be

by popular election from candi
dates representing the independ
ent houses and clubs on campus,

answered said, "Sorry, maybe you
can contact him at the Pi Phi
house." The gripe? Oh yes,
Charles says, "I can go with a
girl from Omaha or Fremont or
anywhere near and get by with it,
but not with a girl 3,000 miles
away!" . . .
"Sweet and Lovely" June Scha
berg is fast becoming one of the
most in-demand Tri Delt girls.
Her brother, Bud, is already one
of the most-liked Kappa Sig
pledges.
Hair-dos are still turning heads
around the campus. Dorothy Kent,
M. J. Melick, and Norm Leger are
just a few of the chief shears
fiends. '

Just then Mary Jo Hamilton
further dispels gloom by appear
ing in a canary yellow jersey. She
wears it tucked into a beige tweed
skirt.
Keep 'Em Varm
When there's a cool breeze,
Shirley Douglas keeps warm in a
cuddly navy blue short sleeved
sweater. Sweater and skirt com
binations rate, too, with Marilyn
Dawson. She chooses a grey
sweater and soldier blue gabar
dine skirt. Pearls accent the out
fit. For the picnic season Mardelle
Buss favors red jeans and a trim
white blouse. If the wind shifts
to the north she keeps warm in
a suede jacket.
Off to the Hop
In preparation for the fresh
man hop Robin Raugh straight

date dress. The nink, grey and
white stripes are used to advan
tage on the turn back collar and
for the three-quarter length
sleeves.
For the "special'r date Charli
Collison looks smooth in an ex

dress.
Remember the top fashion on
the campus tomorrow will be the
scarlet and cream costumes of the
cheerleaders and the jerseys of
the team. Are you with 'em?
