Stanley Mayper, bizad sophomore:
If there is anything I dislike
about women's clothes are angora
sweaters and gloves. Some girls
look a lot sloppier than they are
In the presently popular "Sloppy
Joe" sweaters. I prefer sweaters
that are form fitting. (Who
doesn't). Of course I couldn't pass
up the opportunity to take another
crack at their hats which I think
are getting funnier as the sea
sons pass.
Marjorie Jones, arts and sciences
freshman:
Men shouldn't wear suede shoes.
And drab socks should be reserved
for old age. Whoever thought of
high water pants ? Figured shirts,
bow ties, and checked suits are
out.

themselves to smell. And I can't

My pet peeves are homburg hats

Bow ties and loud clothes should

Formal wear
fashions take
odd turns
Coeds allowed much
originality in choice
of chic party gowns
By Marion Bremers.
The glitter of uniforms and
sabers will serve as a background
for the glamour of this year's
formals. "Unpredictable" is the
word for the formals of this sea
son. No one fashion prevails, and
each girl can use her own inge
nuity in creating a gown that will
cause the man in the uniform to
gasp.
Outstanding materials are ben-
galine, faille taffeta, and woll
challis; outstanding colors are
frost white, eggshell, scarlet,
emerald, and pale blue. Without
a doubt plaid woolen gowns will
be chic, while lame and net com
binations will be good but not so
different. Startling is the peg-top
dress, more conservative is the
bustle-back or side bustle. The
dinner type dress is featured a
great deal for strictly formal wear,
But whatever the style or mater
ial, the essential part is there must
be yards and yards of skirt.

(Continued from Page 6.)
They are coming in 'with a bang,
and it is a safe bet to predict that
next summer will see them leading
as a choice among younger and
older men alike. Some of the new
est ones for winter are made up
in rough flannels and tweeds with
plaid designs. They are now ob
tainable in almost every color and
they will wear for years.
One of the leading novelties of
the year seems to be the surcoat
which is now shown in dozens of
styles and models, and looks as if
it will become a required part of
the college man's wardrobe. Most
of these are finger length and they
are all equipped with zipper fronts
Several of the models are revers
ible, serving as a rain or top coat,
while others are warm enough to
take the place of an overcoat in
cold weather.
There's nothing newer
and more versatile than
those lovely creations.
Wear yours any time of
the day It's always right
. . . and smart with for
mals, too.

Where Style and Quality
Foreign influence
Shows in slioes
expect us to dance in 'em!
By Elizabeth Clark
Formal fashions go foreign and
quaint this year with harem
skirts, gay nineties bustles, Gre
cian drapes, and Spanish-Goya
influence. Shoes follow the fashion
whimsy.
For the harem skirts high
heeled slippers are fluted across
the tops with gay bows plasted
over the heels. Linings are not
conventional in the fluted tops
but are lined with gay silk to
match the dress.
Also a new wrinkle in the plat
form heel is an open space which
merely outlines the old platform
heel.
In the Arabesque style are new
satin sandals with diminutive toes
Bows-

and add greatly in completing a
formal outfit by contrasting with
or matching the gown.
The 'ever popular.'
Rhinestone clops, ever popular,
are back again stronger than ever.
They sparkle in dim or bright
lights and do much to relieve a
bright red or blue gown. Gold is
one again a popular color for the
hair and m lady will be wearing
gold clips, bows, feathers, and rib
bons on her dark locks.
For more of a "cover all" the
new snoods are popular and fortu
nate indeed is the girl who can
wear one.

- and they
and big wide straps, vaguely re
miniscent of the house slippers of
"the roaring twenties."
Different but more conventional
than the Arabesque, are sandals
of silver and gold combination
with high heels and ankle straps.
The proud possessor is Mary Kerri
gan of the Pi Phi house.
Glimmer
Decidedly new are the "glim
mer" sandals, velvet in colors to
match your dress, and with shim
mering sequins. Lattice "windows"
in the toe make the shoe the desire
of everyone from Salome to the
Honorary Colonel, whoever she
may be.
Turn-up toes which peep from
under your ball gown with a de
ceptively innocent look are fea
tured in a local store. Except for
the frivolous toes, the shoes are
extremely simple and classic, ana
can be dyed in colors to match
your dress.
Virginia Haney, Pi Phi, will
wear low-heeled white satin heel
less sandals with silver platform
soles. The strap around the back
is also white satin. Toe straps are
held in place by a tiny band.
Mary Bullock, Alpha Chi Omega,
will be ball-ward bound with high
heeled leaf gold sandals, toeless
and heelless.
Betty O'Brien will trip the
light fantastic in sober black satin
slippers. But the platform soles
studded with rhinestone will glit
ter in the light as she whirls.
