ENGINEERS EXTRA ORIGINAL Desire for Distinctive Apparel Hits Campus All at Once Supply of Freshman Toques Exhausted Orders Corduroys. A peculiar malady seems to have started its ravages on the campus this winter. So far the victims are confined to the masculine sex, but it is noi at all unlikely that the malefactor will be less partial in the future. The chief symptom of a person afflicted with this disease is an inordinate pas sion for distinctive attire. The said microbe first attacked the fertile minds of certain upperclass men and saturated them with the idea that the Freshmen should wear green caps. The Freshmen themselves seem to have felt a touch of the malady. After this in swift succession, va rious organizations have succumbed tc the- microscopic "bug." As a result, a birds-eye view of the campus walks between classes resembles a scotch plaid, the motley array of colors be ing furnished chiefly by the headgear of the male members of the various classes. This is tradition overturned and the right to sport bright colors is no longer held exclusively by the girls. The aforesaid microbe turned upon the minds of the upperclassmen, with the result that the plan to have the first year students wear caps grew and developed into one of larger pro portions. In fact the committee on cops outdid itself and lavishly ordered headgear for the entire school (gen tlemen only). These caps are not caps, but toques, colored with the col ors of the school, red, white, and green (for the freshmen. The Sen iors are to have red toques with white tassels and trimmings. TheBO re quired more time and did not arrive with the others. They are expected in today. Junior toques are to be white, with no ornamentation in the way of gaudy coloring. For tho Sopohomores red toques will be avail able. FreBhmen wear the convent u al green toques, with a white tassel. These caps are on sale at Armstrong's and the sale during the rush hours 1-3 Off on Overcoats & Sweaters 1-3 Off on Novelty Suits 1-4 Off on Greys and Browns 1-5 Off on Blues We want to sell every garment in the house so that we will not have to carry a single one into our new store. New Location jesterday threatened to do away with all the supply on hand. In fact, tho supply of green caps gave out, and a rush order was sent to the factory for more. These are scheduled to ar rive the last of the week. During the day the question was raised as to whether the red caps went to the Sophomorer, or Freshmen, and speak ing for the committee, "Turp" Frank said, "The original plan was to have the Sophomores wear the red caps and the Juniors wear the white ones. This plan will be carried out In order that the wearing of the capB may bo uniform. Not satisfied with caps alone, tho Sophomore football team is much in evidence with their scarlet mackinaws and it is said that the Glee Club will also be seen soon in classy coats similar to these. Engineers Sport Corduroys. Now come the Junior Engineers with the announcement that they will appear in corduroy trousers. Thlr was decided at a meeting held last week. There is a possibility of all the engineers adopting these rough and ready garments. Magee and Deemer are now taking orders of the Junior? and Jt is expected that the 1914 Engineers will be able to start the new semseter in good style if all orders are in by Saturday night of this week.
