January in the old gymnasium.
The Cornhusker for that year
records that "inside of the room
was a melting pot. around which
were gypsies, snake-charmers,
doughboys and ballet girls."
Highlighting the party were
skits, including "Wild Nell," "An
Elopement," "Which One Will
She Choose." and "The Passing
Show of 19-0." Cleopatra was
featured in a real snake dance.
By 1933 the name of the all
girl event had been chanced to
Coed Follies, and the highlight
of the evening was the presenta
tion of the Best Dressed Girl for
the year. As was the custom in
the old Cornhusker parties, the
campus organized houses pre
sented a variety of skits, chosen
by the tradrional sponsors of the
Follies. A.W.S. A four-year-old
girl opened the pases of a huge
Vogue magazine cover to reveal
the w inners. Skits that year in
cluded "Hairbreadth Harry" and
"When Mille Comes to College."
Another event of the evening
was the style show with coeds
modeling the fashions of the day.
Girls modeling in recent Fol
lies have been required to mode
their own clothes. During the
1930's. however, the clothes and
programs for the event were
furnished by Gold's.
The title given to the girl
reigning at the Follies has been
changed from Best Dressed Girl,
to the present title of typical
Nebraska Coed.
The winning skit last year was
given by the Alpha Phis, and
Betty Green was chosen as tne
Typical Nebraska Coed.

The swing to spring is here.
The tig show is on. There are
more thrills a minute than un
der the "big top." There's more
magic for you than a Barnum
could imagine.
It's a town show that's
sprinkled with bargain dust.
It's the final winter clearances.
Pick up some bargains for the
basis of your next fall's ward
robe, or throw some new light
into vour old winter ones. !
Sweaters are good buys now.
Some say spring is a pastel
suit. You can choose suits in
candy pastels that will give you
a different look every time you
mix and match them. You'll
want to wear your two-piecer
as a dress now and as summer
comes, wear it as a suit.
We discovered sorue wonderful
unlined suits at Magee's. They
have the smart new season lines
that college girls want. Some ol
them are made of sharkskin fin
ish rayon and the famous Palm
Beach cloth is also in a suit wail
ing for you. You can have the
Palm Beach siuts in houndstooth
checks of brown or gray and in
pastels at Magee's.
, P. S. The suit on the Febru-
; ary Charm is on sale at Magee's.
This spring you can hear
cheeks and their echoes. Color
wise, all fasnion points to pas
tels. Wear the proud pinks and
the cool chartreuses. Red puts its
exclamation mark into spring
and navy is better than ever.
You'll also find soft-as-a-.sigh
browns waiting to be yours.
A spring print dress is
matched with a butcher linen
jacket in these candy colors. It
shows the suit influence, but has
