years of age. So no "University Uirls ueiy municipal
Cigaret Orders".
Nor was there anything wrong with the problem
as xplained by M. E. T. and in an editorial in the
of the Nebraskan. There is no University
1a which utates that women absolutely cannot smoke;
it is merely not encouraged by the University author- puW;c . Seekt to Abale SaIe mni
Hies, although it might be admitted that some of the ue of by Coeu
co-eds do. But that is beside the point.
This alleged "war", which the papers charge is Lincoln, Jan. 14 What promised to be a war be
raglng between the University women and Commis- tween University of Nebraska coeds and Public Safety
sioner Bair of the city of Lincoln, is false.' Mr. Bair, Commissioner Bair of Lincoln was seen Friday when a
when he announced a. ruling prohibiting the sale of representative coed, who enjoys an occasional after
tobacco to anyone under eighteen yeasr of age, had no dinner cigaret, aired her views on the subject in the
intention of regulating University morals. He was en- columns of the Daily Nebraskan, student publication,
deavorine to keep both young boys and girls from Friday.
Loeas became angered following Commissioner
Bair's recent newspaper interview, in which he said he
was astounded when he saw several university women
smoking in a drug store.
A movement is on foot in Lincoln, inaugurated by
the city, to stop sale of cigarets to minors and to pro
hibit girls smoking in public places.
"No Moral Issue."
The coed, in her letter to the school publication,
aeciared university women were going to smoke, no
matter what happened, and a campaign by city author
ities would have no effect upon them. She said most
of them are over 18 years of age and the tightening
of the law would be to no avail.
Admitting that smoking "takes away "from the
dignity of the sweet young things," the letter said there
was no moral issue in the question.
"Since they do smoka, and a university rule says
there shall be no smoking in dormitories and sorority
houses, they must do it elsewhere," the letter said.
GirU Smoke on Corners
"Certainly the commissioner would have had his
sense of propriety a great deal more injured had he
chanced to pass almost any sorority house on the cam
pus between the hours of 7 and 8 in the evening," the
smokin. After they reach eighteen, his jurisdiction
ends.
But the people of the Btete who read the write-ups
of the smoking "war" do not know that. Neither do they
know that every paper involved picked up one student
opinion favoring women's smoking, and did not mention
the editorial in the same issue which disagreed, al
though editorials are considered as representative of
the student body as are single "Soap Box" articles.
Only one conclusion can be drawn from these
facts that the papers of the state wanted a good, live
story and there is more news value in the fact that
co-eds smoke, than that the situation it not alarming,
as the editor pointed out. And when important news
papers in the state send out "doctored" reports to the
taxpayers who support the University of Nebraska, it
reflects discredit upon the student body and the school
which is not deserved.

the fox-trot. Its appeal lies more
in the thoughts it provokes, than in
any physical reactions. The music
of the tango expresses love, hate, or
vengeance, and it manifests the Lat
in people's love for harmony. Its
smooth notes and cadences direct
one to thought rather than to the
mere motions of dancing," Mr. Cu
neo explained.
"With the fox-trot one forgets his
daily worried; with thet tango one is
made to remember the realities of
life: The fox-trot lives for move
ment, the tango lives for thought and
sentiment. For this reason," Mr.
Cuneo concluded, "it is very difficult
to dance the tango unless one under
stands and really feels the music."

meetings will be resumed again af

Style Hints
lege man who wore a racoon skin
ulster and colored bandana with his
evening clothes is about over. Uni
versity men now use the handsome
dark blue or black Chesterfields,
single or double breasted, for the
name "Chesterfield" is applied to an
outercoat of either cut.
Interesting as the revival of in
terest in the tail coat is, particularly
to those who follow university styles,
it must nevertheless be admitted that
the dinner jackets or Tuxedos will
continue to be in the majority. For
some time now the students have
liked the notch lapel jaacket, with
straight back and shiny facing on the
lapels. The single button of the
jacket is set rather low. The trou
sers are made rather wide both at
knee and bottom. The last dimen
sion should be watched, as many re
tailers will sell trousers much too
wide all the way down and swear
they are providing their customers
with the genuine university article
exactly as worn by Dink Stover at
Yale.
Too Standardized
This widely accepted university
dinner jacket is a harmless sort of
garment, but standarized and unin
teresting. The notch lapels of course
indicate less formality than the
pointed lapels, and in many ways this
jacket is simply a house lounging
coat.
The smarter dinner jacket, how
ever, is now establishing itself and
(By Faii-child1 Newt Service)
Winter social functions turn the
college man's attention to his eve
ning clothes and frequently this is
the season in which the new dinner
jackets and other things for social
wear are bought.
Perhaps the most interesting news
concerning evening clothes is thai a
number of college men are begin
ning to turn to the tail coat for wear many of the university men are
at dances. Tail coats have been seen
in appreciable numbers on under
graduates at Eastern college dances
and at other parties attended by the
same young men. There is no ques
tion that the tail coat is suitable
and proper for any large dance, and
it will be seen more and more at col
lege social affairs.
It is important that the waistcoat
should not show beneath the sides of
the tail coat; that is, the coat should
just barely cover the waistcoat, ex
cept in front, of course. If any part
of the waistcoat does show (except
in front) the symmetry of the mass
es of black and white, the chief ex
cuse for modern evening clothes, is
destroyed.
Accessories Important
Proper accessories include a bold
wing collar, plain white starched
shirt, for two studs, unless the sin
gle stud variety is insisted upon,
plain pearl studs, very fresh white
tie and waistcoat of washable mate
rial, and black, plain toe patent
leather oxfords or pumps. Either
an opera hat, that amusing piece of
headwear called "chapeau mechan
ique" by the French, or the stiff silk
hat, go properly with the tail coat.
No other sort of hat is properly worn
with full evening dress.
It seems that the day of the col-

wearing it The coat has peaked
lapels faced with grosgrain. The
jacket fits easily at the shoulder but
has a pronounced drape to the body
at the waist. The waistcoat is fitted
very snugly and may be white or
black.
Trousers are cut high, with pleats
in front and plenty of room at the
knee. They taper to a slight break
over the shoe top. The jewelry is
restrained and severe in design.
Colored stones are not favored for
evening wear by university men. A
gray Homburg hat, a derby, an opera
hat or even a nice tall glossy silk hat
may be worn with the dinner jacket,
and the outercoats are the same as
used for full evening dress. Most
