Thursday, March 20, 1941
Dear Diary,
Got a letter from Bill this
morning asking me up for the
week-end. Am so excited! Went
down town and bought new spring
things to take with me.
Began with a light blue, tan,
and brown overplaid suit, which
should be very practical for the
daytime, 'cause It's semi-sport

type. Am putting a light tan glen
pole cloth blouse with it. Found a
darling pair of light tan specta
tor pumps and purse to match
them. My hat is
a brown wide
brim snap, with
a light blue band.
I liked the hat
because it has

too. The shirt is
a red and green

looks like South America to me.
Now all I need to complete the
spring outfit is a dressy dress and
coat. I think that the powder

very practical too, for the lace

Oh yes, and the coat. Saw one
in navy blue. They had these In

If the money

I'll buy some

Happy? Why, of course, didn't I
buy clothes today ?

Omicron Nu entertained eight
sophomores in home economics
who stood highest in their fresh
man year recently at the home of
Margaret Fedde of the home eco
nomics department.
Survey-
(Continued from Page 1.)
A slight majority of 51 percent
declared "just about right," and
the rest said "too little."
Altho three-fourths of the stu
dents believe higher education is
not being pushed too much in this
country which already has in its
colleges and universities a greater
proportion of its youth than any
other nation -a surprising set of
answers was obtained from this
question:
"Without mentioning names,
do you know any students per
sonally who would be better off
at work than in college?"
YES, said 88 percent
NO, said 12 percent
Of course, any response to that
question is necessarily based on
personal opinion. Barring preju
dice and some duplication, the sur.
vey nevertheless provides an indi
cation of the extent to which
many colleges may be wasting
their energies on campus misfits.
More men than women believe
there is overemphasis on college
education, the results of the poll
show. This is perhaps to be attri
buted to the greater demand for
"college men" than for. "college
women" that has been in vogue
for some time. A tabulation by
sexes follows:

Filial Exam for telephones
TIIIS electrical "mouth at Bell Telephone Laboratories i9
putting a new telephone to one of its final tests. Over
and over, it can repeat these odd sentences without the slight
est variation. They contain all the fundamental sounds that con
tribute to the loudness of sound in our speech. This mouth can
also make tests with simple tones of known pitch and intensity.
At the same time other telephones are being steamed, baked,
frozen, lifted and dropped into their cradles by tireless ma
chines. All this is part of a carefully planned curriculum
that makes every piece of telephone equip
ment prove it is capable of giving you the best
possible service under any and all conditions.
