Fashion Fads, Foibles Find
Fanciers Ferreting Field
BIG OPERATORS
In the campus fashion field
are the likely-looking lads in
the accompanying photos. No,
It isn't the Gestapo or the
rogues gallery; . . . it's part of
Ben Simon and Sons own "G2,"
. . . intelligence service to you
. . . which concentrates on fer
reting out the fashion foibles
of the masculine mind of Joe
College on the Nebraska cam
pus. These enterprising opera
tives; Phi Delt Nick Douvas,
kinds to be found at Simons.
Beta John McCarthy, Phi Psi
Chet Bowers, and "Jerry"
Thompson, Phi Gam; are but a
part of Simon's student staff,
especially trained to counsel
the bewildered collegian on
what to wear, and when, . . .
and how! Tommy Miller, ATO;
and Alex Mills, Sig Alnha, also
know what is cooking for the
collegiate wardrobe, and, like
Chet Bowers
all the rest of Simon's Fashion
conscious staff, they would like
to wise you tip. . . . next time
you wander in to look at the
super stock of apparel of all
kinds to be found at Simons
An insatiable desire to see the
latest in spring apparel led us
up to the second floor the other
P.M., where we found many
smooth operators bedecking
themselves . . . from a magnifi
cent srray of spring finery.
They had found out what we
did; that Simon's have discov
ered, through their student
style experts what we'uns want
. . . and they've got it, in that
ultra stock.
WORRIED LAD
Who got a new lease on life
at Simons, is Ray "EDOC"
candidate" Grimes, Z3T who
was planning the Importation
of a mysterious Omaha beauty
for the Prom. Yes, we said

Consider What Your Ties
Can Do for You or BMOC
... If You Do It Right
We were sitting in the grill the
other day watching all the smooth
Nebraska men parade from booth
to booth, when we heard a net
little coed remark, "No, I mean
the blond over there on the left.
Isn't he handsome? And just look
at that tie you can tell he knows
his way around."
As we hastily straightened our
own cravat, we glanced enviously
at the blond and noticed that he
was wearing a maroon knitted tie.
The casual type, you know, that
screams expense and good taste.
Determined to find out more about
this business of "ties make the
man" we cornered the coed and
learned that a man's tie is as
much the secret to his personality
as the shine on his shoes, if that
means anything.
Here are the sordid facts: You
can't be a "campus smoothie," the
man who always has more women
than he knows what to do with,
unless your ties are in good taste.
Evidently the prerequisite for a
typical campus Joe is that casual
tie we mentioned before. The
Nick Douvas
"was." Tia rumored that said
"belle mysterioso" is confined
with . . . you guessed it, friend,
. . . the measles. Ray is re
ported testing quietly and
waiting for an official com
munique. In fact he doesn't
even look worried .... just
smoother than ever. It must
be the new tan Cashmere sport
coat he is flashing, . . . and it's
a beaute, selected from the
many tan models for spring,
shown at Ben's.
CLOTHES CONSCIOUS
CASANOVA
from the Phi Delt house is
footballer Bob Deviney. When
Bob breezes down to South
Sioux City to keep the home
fires burning, he will be look
ing smooth and especially per
suasive in a new sport tan gab
ardine suit, selected from the
enormous Simon stock.

women like the tailored, effortless
look that goes with it.
The BMOC is inclined to the
more dignified style. A plain color
which matches or contrasts his
suit is the only choice. Some
BMOC's go mad with a thin stripe
or small print. But nothing loud,
you know, and nothing flashy.
Correst, is the word.
And then there's the student. He
doesn't bother with the color (he's
color-blind anyway) or the style.
He grabs the nearest piece of
cloth, loops it once, and drops the
matter. The color is liable to be a
blinding green and then again, it
may be a dull brown. If he's wear
ing a black suit, it's probably a
brown tie.
The "Gosh, you're glad I'm
here" man doesn't stop with a
stripe. He tramples right over
convention and runs riot with dots
and dashes of rainbow design. You
can always see him coming two
blocks before he gets there. And
the tie is shiny silk.
As for the ordinary man on the
campus cords, sweater, etc.
they never wear a tie anyway, so
why worry?
FATAL FASCINATION
which Phi Delt Bud Boyden has
for former belle about the cam
pus, Chi O' Jo "I want to be
Prom girl" Duree might be one
result of his super and suave
new wardrobe additions from,
. . . you know it, bud; Ben Si
mons. The topper of his torso
covers is a light tan Pan Amer
ican Shetland by IJart Schaff
ner and Marx. Fashion futures
say . . . Shetlands are it this
season. But that's not all Jo's
playmate has. Plenty of class
Is the verdict on his mixed her
ring bone weave sport coat;
and he has light swiss calf
shoes to complete his coed
catching collection of spring
finery.

SOOTHING,
SATISFYING
Simile is "Like a fashion page
from Esquire," but "like a Si
mon's fashion display" is even
a more suitable saying. Like
wise will all agree when they
cast their eyes on ATO Tommy
Hood's new Simon's Spring
Special. Of course it's an Kagle
suit styled by nationally fa
mous Scott Barie. This Simon s
Sensation is a light tan flannel,
with a long full drape, double
breasted, broad lapels, and def-p
pleats in the trousers.
AND SO ENDS
. . . another day of the Ben
Simon fashion parade ... and
more happy college kids wend
their homeward way; not
weary and worn, though, but
happy and stylish with their
newly acquired vestial finery.
