Finals took edge off our fun, schedules mix us up I ike f rosh It's not the easiest thing get ting down to the less serious side of life, what with worrying whether we passed that music appris exam and keeping one eye on our schedule while we hunt up our brand new classes and sleuth ing here and there just to see whether so-and-so is still dating he blond Alph Phi. So far we've ust gone around humming "I'm 7it to Be Tied" and getting all mixed up by going to our Tues day classes on Monday and feeling exactly like the greatest freshie on the campus. Back to caking. Wandered into the drug yester day and really it did our heart good to see the old crowd at their ten o'clock caking hour. There was a bouth simply packed witn Kappas and their various men and next to them a fouresome of Patty Reitz, Marj Wacchter, Louise Malmburg and Jane Cook, all D. G., concentrating over bridge hands. Just about that time Lois Friedebach tripped in in high heeled shoes, and soon after Jim mie de Wolf swished along in high-topped galoshes and other wise looking very natty in a cov ert cloth topcoat. Corn Crib sessions. It was long until we'd beaten a path to the Corn Crib so as not to miss out on anything there. And who should be run into but at least ten Pi Phis holding their regular morning session and cast ing sub-zero glances at Bud Rohde as he whizzed by with a couple of Dell brothers. We'd scarcely caught our breath from this when we spied Sigma Nu Dick Ryan and no. you'll never guess D. U. Bob Nelson chatting together and evi dently having a marvelous time over something. Those two, we imagine, would have a great deal in common, especially if they evtr compared notes on Tri Delt Olive Spielh. But then again they might have just been commenting on the weather. A.T.O.-Kappa triangle. One of the A.T.O's wandered over to our booth with a hot tip on Brother Bill O'Connor's latest heart throb. It seems that the whole Kappa house has bn sim ply us in the air about Bill, who so far has played a dual role in their lives calling for Mary Lou Kelly, active, some evenings and other nights turning up for Medicos feud Do kisses cure influenza? It seems there's quite a con troversy in medical circles as to the relative merits of kissing. In the first place, a San Fran cisco medico said that if a kiss wai warm enough, it would do no harm. He advocated kissing as a sure cure for influenza. Then, the Wahoo Wasp con ducted a poll of local doctors to tsee what they thought. Drs. Charles H. Way, Mason E. Lath rop and J. R. Kaspar disagreed with the coast doctor. They said they had found no kisses in Saun ders county warm enough to de stroy flu germs. Dr. J. R. Swanson said if the kiss was warm enough, it would do no harm. It's the cold smack that's not so good. There is a germ of truth in. the theory, he decided. Dr. Way condemned kissing as a "vicious habit" which should be almost eliminated. "It reverts back to cannibal days," he said. ""This type of flu cure is not highly recommended. It takes an awful lot of heat to kill the germs, and I don't believe lips are hot enough to kill bac teria." How about that? Phyllis Welsh, pledge. Some of the sisters even went so far as to place bets on the outcome, but it seems that this year's pledge class triumphs again for after the Kappa formal Bill will be off the footloose list with Phyllis as his one and only. And that, my friends, is all for today, except that tiny Tri Delt Sara Fields is strutting a brand new diamond ring from Culver Brooks, Phi Delt. Monday Sara moved into the home management house to learn to cook and take care of children. There's no con nection, of course.

Silk prints good. And even the most whimsical of fashion followers agree that the best spring bet is one of the printed silk dresses with a top coat lined with the same material as the dress. Other of the nicer things in downtown windows are the shepherd-check wool suits and the navy and white silks which fit in positively anywhere. Captivating to the male eye as well as the well-dressed woman. are the soft pastel sweaters with pastel contrasting skirts. And jackets grow longer and longer as the war in Europe goes on and on. Top has its insignia of the mili tary vogue such as a well-chosen meclnl. Many, too. have gold braid, epaulets and military cut in keep- insr with the news of the day. Skirts, it seems, will be longer, be cause of the practical work the women in Kurope are doing. Hats are sensible. Hats. too. unless Voeue 19 wrong, will be far more sensible, because the women in Paris are wanting to please the men home from the wars. Almost every hat, except the perennial bird's nest type, has a military insignia of some type. Even the turbans. which more nearly tnan ever, ap proximate a ribbon tied with a . huge bow, are marked by the struggle abroad. And for the col lege girl, best news is that at least fashion has rediscovered what they have known all along, that a roller is practical, and at the same time, most becoming. Shoes, too, except for the trans parent heeled ones, show the in fluenc of a warring France, for the heels are lower, and more practical, while the cutout models are largely "gone with the wind."
