slacks, now they have taken over
men s pajamas.
One of the flashier pairs are
Howdy chillun!
Well, it looks like ye supreme

sported by Lorraine Rabe, Alpha
Phi, whose favorites are a grue
some combination of green and
yellow paisley enough to give
anyone nightmares. Toasty warm
for hanging out windows to listen
to serenades (now few and far
between) are the ever popular
flannels.
Gay 90's Plaids.
Over Tri-Delt way. Charlene
Jessee is currently flaunting a
plaid flannel nightshirt shades of
the gay 90's! The Pi Phi's are
now having sleepless nights over
Marilyn Simpson's brilliant red
and blue PJ's. They're so big for
her that she swears she can turn
over in bed without moving them
at all.
Robes for Warmth.
Hand in hand with pajamas go
robes and brunch coats. Flannel
robes are always handy and keep
you warm while up late studying
or just having a bull session. With
wool so scarce this year, corduroy
robes are coming into their own,
too. Barb Schlater, Theta, is right
up with the times in a quilted
satin brunch coat that looks good
enough to eat.
This next item has nothing to
do with night time wear but as
long as we are mentioning boys'
clothes we might ask you how you
like the ski sweaters that the girls
are filling out? Carol Jean Mc
Grew, Tri Delt pledge, was look
ing lovely yesterday in a maroon
sweater adorned with reindeer and
such. Betty Mahan, Alpha Chi, has
a few moose trailing around a
beige sweater, too.
We leave you now to return
again in the not too distant future
with more news and views of th

progress of the twentieth century,;
