Coeds Get Gay
Fashion Ideas
For Summer
BY ADRIENNc WAGGONER.
In spite of the seemingly inter
minable rains, coeds are begin
nine to think about summer
clothes. There will be the usual
gay variety of Bummer cottons and
rayons in the stores this ytr.
In the flower brigade, glazed
chintz will continue as a favorite,
along with gingham and printed
rayon. Checks, stripes and plaids
will add their dashing note, with
cotton chambiay as a preferred
material.
Bare midriff bathing suits are
definitely in this year. Also many
types of play dresses, one of which
merely has straps in a contrasting
color, , over the shoulders. An
other noval idea in the bare-back
line is the dickey, complete with
collar, buttons down the front,
and a pocket, which turns out to
be a halter when the suit coat is
removed.
f Gingham la In.
Among the numerous tailored
cottons to be had, a popular style
should be the bright plaid ging
ham, made in shirt waist style,
with white pique collar and cuffs.

Reveal Identity
Of Aff Goddess
At Open House
Identity of the 20th Goddess of
Agriculture will be revealed in
simplified wartime ceremonies at
4:30 this afternoon as a feature
of the open house activities on a?
campus. The Goddess and her six
attendants were chosen from the
senior girls of the home econom
ics department by a vote of all ag
women.
As nearly as can be ascertained,
the first Goddess of Agriculture
was presented in 1924 at the an
nual Farmers' Fair. She appeared
with her attendants on a float in
a downtown parade. In later years
she reigned over the pageant and
other festivities of Farmers Fan
day, abandoned three years ago
because of the war. On several
occasions the Goddess- was re
vealed at the annual ag spring
party, the last one of which was
held in 1942.
Two Informal Ceremonies.
The first informal presentation
was made last year on the out
door stage on the east campus,
followed by a community sing and
a dance attended by students and
members of the STAR unit.
Dave Sanders, president of ag
exec board, will preside at the
ceremonies, which will be preceded
by two musical numbers. Follow
ing the presentationl the ag chorus
will sing "Country Gardens" and
girls from the phys ed classes
dressed in peasant costumes, will
stage several folk dances.
In keeping with the simplicity
of this year's festivities, the at
tendants will appear wearing
white skirts and pastel sweaters,
and the Goddess will wear a pas
tel sweater and skirt.
Virginia Bobbitt, chairman of
the presentation committee, an
nounced that because of the recent
rain, the affair will probably be
held in the college activities build
ing rather than on the outdoor
stage as was originally planned
sories is always distinctive in
summer. Red and white cham
bray, in either a dirndl or shirt
waist type dress, gives that pep
permint candy-cane appearance.
A brown and white gingham in
large checks, with enormous
pockets on the skirt, brown but-
tons down the front, and a wide
brown leather belt, should appeal
to any fashion-wise coed.
Aa far as summer formala are
concerned, white cotton eyelet
with wide black velvet ribbon
threaded thru the off-shoulder
bodice should be admired by even
those males who claim never to
be clothes-conscious. Pique, either
flowered or plain, makes another
smart summer gown.
