BY MARY LOUISE GOODWIN.
It seems like everyone who has
a journalistic (?) urge grabs a
sheet of paper and a typewriter
and whips off this column and the
follow who writes the best poem
gets the blue ribbon. But Wednes
dHy when we 3av Tom Drummond
and Sadie Hawkins cohorting on
yesterday's column then we
thought we'd seen everything. We
might warn these two to lay low
because there's a certain little DG
who would love to twist the knife
in their backs.
And speaking of Drummond
wonder what's become of the
handsome jeweled pin he used to
wear. The plain gold DU has
taken its place here recently. Al
pha Phi Maurine Reese has a
knowing look in her eye perhaps
she's taken it for safe keeping....
Hob's Pinned.
Have you noticed that Tri Delt
Mary Miles has been wearing the
Sig Ep pin of Innocent Bob Hen
derson ? It was another one of
those stepped up romances
Helen Freeborn, AOPI isn't keep
ing it any secret that she has at
tached her jewelry to that of
Kappa Sig Jerry Jiroc.
Did you see Ensign Mill March
and wife, the former Maribel
Hitchcock, Theta of last year,
who were back and having lunch
in the Crib with Bob Sinkey and
Tat Cole?
Phi Psi Jim Baylor is seeing to
it that Kappa Hazel Abel doesn't
spend her week-ends at home
since steady Reims Heiny, Thi
Delt went to work for Uncle Sam
last week. They'll be seen round
about together again this week
end. Theta Xi's Dine and Dance.
Lucky dates of the Theta Xis
will be dining this Friday evening
at the University club. Some of
the dates for the affair are Jack
Morehead and Marcellie Prosser,
Alpha Xi Delt; Myron Anderson
and May Peterson, Kappa Delt;
Jack Simpson and Evelyn Garton,
also Kappa Delt. Gifford Rogers,
Ray Piodahl, and Mac Bowser
look over the local girls and de
cided to import their dates who
are Marjorie Mull and Joan Hart
sock from Omaha, and Valeria
Youngworth from Council Bluffs.
The army brought another
diamond to the Kappa house and
this one went to Marge Holmes.
The fellow on the giving end was
none other than Beta of last year
Bert Allen.
How About This?
We've been wondering about a
couple of things lately, namely
when are they going to call up
the ERC and what about Laura
Lee Mundil and Phi Gam Russ
Ledger? Are they going steady
and if not why not?
Before we go we'd like to write
a little memo to White Space.
We're very sorry we were im
pertinent but we really like your
hair cut. But then we think J. J. u.
is a pretty good fellow too.

'Change to Chesterfield' Is Coed
Motto For Springtime Wardrobe
BY JEAN ROGERS.
Fine time to scribble a fashion
column, what with these wintry
breezes boosting our supply of
Kleenex and hoisting things in
general, especially skirts, to high
heaven. Nevertheless, we have
noted enough smart togs here
abouts to fill this space. To wit:
With materials and many for
mer styles plus Lucky Strike green
joining the armed forces for the
duration, Chesterfield has come
into prominence, displayed by
coats, dresses, and suits! Helen
Johnson, DG was seen at the Pike
in a new white wool flannel dress
with a black Chesterfield collar.
Suits Predominate.

"You sec,' he continued, "I have
this war at heart." He then men
tioned that his three sons and one
son-in-law are in the armed serv
ices of the United Nations.
A creative writer and success
ful playwright besides his labor
work, Mr. Jones is the author of
"Bidden to the Feast," a novel, and
of "Proud Valley," a movie in
which Paul Robson starred in the
English production. His plays
have appeared at the Globe
Theater. London, and at the For
tune in Drury Lane, London.
Juggling your budget, your 6pring wardrobe
and Coupon No. 17 is a feat these days . . .
more than ever, it's good sense to buy
quality SHOES. Miller's, as always, has
an array of beautifully-styled, long
wearing shoes . . to wear now
and year-around.

steps out in a three piece gray
wool suit, while two doors down
at the Alpha Phi hut, petite Marge
Hanks is sending the bill home to
fond Papa for a smooth three
piece brown gabardine job with
the aforementioned Chesterfield
collar. Seems as how these lassies
are really suited for spring!
Because of that notorious No. 17
coupon in the ration book, shoe
styles are more conservative with
the exception of the gay-colored
wooden-soled sport shoes. Slight
commercial: 15,000 pairs of these
numbers are being exported each
year from Columbus, Nebraska.
For Dinner Dates . . .
As for hats they seem to b
anonymous at the moment! But
Franny Radford, Kappa, for the,
super-dinner date, dons a light
blue "Wraggy" dress with match
ing top-notcher.
And if you have that certain
nack, follow the example of Win
nie Edie, KKG pledge, and whip
up a design of your own in the
form of a gay print on a dark
background. Polka dots and stripes
also have received an A-l classi
fication. As a final tip, buy the clothes
you need, pick out materials that
will last several seasons, and
watch the papers for details on
clothes rationing before you've
purchased your spring ensemble!
