DAILY NEBRASKAN
S
By Betty Klingel.
So you're the feminine type of
girl! You mere made for dancing,
entertaining and for displaying
your ability to wear the filly,
fluffy spring clothes which are so
much in evidence this spring.
Of course nothing tailored will
be in your new spring wardrobe,
on the contrary, your group does
not go in seriously of the rough
and ready tweeds that character
ize your direct opposites. You will
have more dresses than suits, and
the suits that you do possess will
be dressmaker things, in soft
wools. More often than not they
will be trimmed with one of the
softer furs used for spring trim
ming. You will have floated house
coats, lacy blouses and dance
frocks that look made for moon
light. Influence of DuBarry.
Your clothes are Influenced by
the styles of DuBarry and Pompa
dour. Skirst should be bouffant,
with silhouettes made of soft
curves and never a straight line
anywhere. You will wear your
hair in soft waves and use flowers
a great deal. Basyues, peplums,
fitted bodices with shirring or
rows of tiny button down the front
will characterize your date dresses.
Poke bonnets would be lovely on
your head and there is an abun
dance of new style bonnet this
year.
Pastels will express your gentle
charm the most. There Is to be
nothing aggressive about you. And
that, in this day and age, is the
best possible formula for distinc
tion. Soft fabrics.
The girls of your type will wear
soft, but crouchable, touch-me-not
fabrics to enhance their loveliness.
For evening there will be lace,
taffeta, tulle and for daytime you
will wear printed silks and silk
chantungs.
And now for a few suggestions
about your spring wardrobe. What
about a new dainty, embroidered
bastiste blouse, the types of which
are bloossoming out in the local
shops and in all the fashion mag
azines. A number of soft sweat-
Tailored suits
give star best
dressed title
"Best-dressed Woman in Radio,"
was the title bestowed upon Alice
Frost, when the Fashion Academy,
directed by Emil Alvin Hartman,
announced its 1941 list of the na
tion's best-dressed women recent
ly at the Hotel Waldorf-Astoria.
After a poll among 100 fore
most American designers, Miss
Frost was selected for the best
dressed title because of her taste
in selecting smart, simply tailored
suits, enlivened by striking acces
sories. While simplicity is the keynote
of her daytime costume, Miss
Frost adds a feminine touch with
her novel lapel ornaments. One of
these is of carved ivory in the
shape of the heads of a queen and
king. Another is a miniature re
production of a street lamp.
For evening, the radio actress
favors high-necked dresses over
which she wears a knee-length sil
ver fox coat. Miss Frost is star of
"Big Sister," radio dramatic series.

ers for you should consist of
pastel-shaded ones in the new rab
bity wools and the like. Your
spring suit could be one with a
full skirt and a new longer jacket
with the new soft shoulder lines
both in a new soft rose or delicate
blues. You can find any number
of handsome spring skirts that will
suit you to a "T," but don't make
the mistake of getting any with
straight lines these are not for
you.
"Parasol" silhouettes.
For that big "date," a lovely
style for you would be one of the
new "parasol" silhouettes an im
portant spring fashion, by the way
in possibly a cool-looking black
with a huge white flower slanting
across the shoulder.
In the evening you'll be the one
to give a lession In lure to all the
gals in a stunning gown featuring
the new draped effects and made
in yards and yards of floating
chiffon. If the thought of chiffon
does not strike a suggestive note,
take heed of the many other grand
materials such as marquisette,
rayon jersey and the ever-popular
net.
Just remember that you're far
from an Amazon and you and
your wardrobe will be the envy
of the campus.

mittee according to the new con
stitution. Under the old document
the tenure of office was only one
year and all seven student mem
bers were elected by the Council.
Further the document provides
that of the eight student mem
bers, two shall be sophomores,
three juniors and three seniors,
four must be women and one a
student enrolled in ag college.
Most important by-law change
proposed, involves the administra
tion of the board of managers
with the creation of five standing
committees: executive, finance,
house rules, faculty and activi
ties. Setup of the revised activities
committee will provide machinery
for expansion of the Union pro
gram through a system of student
workers committees. Under the
new setup the activities program
of the institution will be expanded
several times over, and places will
be made in the institution for ap
proximately 250 student activities
men and women. Expansion of the
program under the current setup
would be virtually impossible due
to limited funds.
To hold regular meetings.
Under the board of managers
section of the document, the new
constitution provides for a meet
ing of the board at least once a
month with special meetings to be
called at the discretion of the
president, the director, or of any
five members of the board.
The treasurer of the board is
empowered, under the revised con
stitution, to collect dues or other
obligations due the Union as ap
proved by the board of regents
and specified in the constitution
by-laws. These dues are for fac
ulty and resident memberships in
the Union.
All purchases for the building
shall be made by the director un

So you like the casual in clothes!
This is a good time for you be
cause most of the spring clothes
are casual due to America's own
designing.
Of course you love suits. And
aren't there millions of them this
spring? Everything from pastel
plaids to navy blue. You'll want
two (if you're lucky you will get
them). One In a sport type for
school with which you wear a
glen polo cloth tailorded blouse;
and the second In a dress type with
which you wear a tailored silk
short. Maybe you will get a navy
blue suit, and you will wear a
middy with it.
South American influence.
Your clothes will be influenced
by the war, the na.vy, and South
America. Your skirts are full, but
fitted below the hips. You will
wear your har soft and long. And
of course you love lapel ornaments,
and snap brim hats.
For evening you will buy a for
mal with a South American print
skirt, and a tailored bodice in silk
jersey.
You too can wear pastel shades
and will pick soft sweaters. Your
blouses will have tailorded lines,
and maybe one will be a gaudy
print for a plain skirt.
Little girl styles.
For your dating you will wear,
in addition to suits, the fitted
casual dress. If you do not like
the "pencil" silhouette which is
so good, you will go for the little
agent as authorized by the board
of managers. It also provides that
any expense of maintenance over
and above the ordinary expense
of maintaining the building shall
be borne by Union funds.

to go through her blockade. Thus
far, England has refused, on the
grounds that the food shipments
would be of aid to Germany in the
war.
Present aim of the Hoover com
mittee is to convince England to
the contrary. It is seeking the
backing of public opinion all over
the country in an effort to per
suade England that it is to her
adventage to agree to the plan.
Whether or not backing will be
given to the plan by the univer
sity students will be determined
by this poll.

very little or no lace trim on them,
and no flowers. Only cute and
clever ornaments.
You wear the covered-up eve
ning dress, which is luring in its
own way. You like silk, jersey,
taffeta, and the heavier materials.
Just remember that you are the
type who is easy to get along with,
and the fellow doesn't have to feel
protective. He enjoys being with
you, and doesn't think he'd have
to get someone else for a game of
tennis because you are too fragile.
