Teller Urges All
Students to Give
To Clothing Box
This week marked the begin
ning of the United National Cloth
ing Collection drive, which is
sponsored by the War Council and
is to be held during April. Fred
Teller, chairman of the "On the
Beam" committe, urged all stu
dents to collect old clothing when
they are at home on Easter or
any time during March and April,
A box placed in the lobby of the
Union will be used for collection
of the clothing.
This will be the on nationwide
clothing collection to be conducted
in the United States in the spring
of 1945 for foreign war relief pur
poses. Good, substantial, used
clothing is needed for both winter
and summer wear. Altho clothing
need not be in perfect repair, it
must be useful to the people who
will receive it.
The World Student Service fund
is conducting the clothing collec
tion in the colleges. The goal is
150,000,000 pounds of good, usable
clothing, shoes, and bedding. . 1
BY BARBARA KIECHEL.
Spring is officially here. By the
time this is printed (no harm in
being optomistic, we always say;
it will probably be blizzarding,
but that's beside the point. The
almanac say it's soring, and it
isn't our fault if the weather is
as unpredictable as Les Glotfelty's
pajamas. (This is not a paid ad
vertisement; they're just the most
unpredictable things we can think
of, off-hand.)
One of the nicest things about
spring is that with it comes that
delicious malady known as spring
fever. This particular disease has
baffled scientists for years, but
brewing up a cure would be to
no avail, because people enjoy it
too much. It hs proven to be a
good excuse for practically any
thing from cutting classes to
nonchalantly setting the house on
fire. If a coed forgets to get an
accounting assignment, she has
only to approach her instructor,
assume a vacant air, and an
nounce listlessly, "But I have
spring fever." Whereupon the
teacher nods in understanding,
and waves the poor afflicted child
aside with a sympathetic smile
and a memo to his secretary to
make out a down slip.
Sap of Youth.
One might think that professors
could lighten assignments at times
like these, but while spring saps
youth of its energy, it apparently
stimulates vigor in other genera
tions. Concentrating on algebra
tor the structure of Congress just
can't be done college stuaems
are too busy thinking beautiful
thoughts . .'. or wondering if the
dogwood is blooming in Phi Psi
Gulch.
Limited snaee necessitates skip
ping over such vital reactions to
spring as housecleanmg; dui sucn
diversions do not particularly
bother the collegiate population,
anyway unless they happen to
be pledges.
Hats in the Belfrey.
dnrinir hats are another matter.
Everv coed is determined to shock
her public if she has to appear in
a scorched lampshade to do it,
and she frequently does. Wear a
lampshade, we mean; its impos
sible to shock anyooay unaer
75 anymore. Surrealistic creations
on display in the shop-windows
are sold out alter the nrst Daimy
Hav hut the thriftv voune thing
has learned that the same effect
may be achieved with an ashtray,
a washcloth, two or three Dewey
buttons, and a slight touch of in
sanity. Just so it's unbecoming;
that's the only requisite.
.
Romance, tragic as it is, nas
been sadly neglected these last
few years. With only 1 man
to evwv 9 trirls. it's a little diffi
cult to get actively involved. Be
sides, the 1 man is prooaDiy
still in a dizzy stupor over Lauren
Bacall. If his absent murmuring,
"It's even better if you help" as
he gazes out the window gets
slightly old, just humor him.
Cotton Outlook
ShinesPrices
On Rampage .
BY PHYLLIS MORTLOCK.
Cottons are almost a non-existent
luxurv these days but the
cotton outlook is shinin a little
hricrhter nnw. what with the new
government regulation on more
miantitv and ceiling prices on
what quantity there is to be had.
For a while there cottons were
ramnacin? rieht UD in the "good"
dress class at least according to
the price tag.
. . , Am f
Cotton, Material oi me now.
Rut with the sun beginning to
sizzle and skirts out of the ques
tion, the frustrated boll weevil
has to give in and admit it cot
ton is the material of the hour.
Bright, striped Jumper dresses,
flashy pinafore styles and the
nastpi nrinress mode, with a dash
of lace for seasoning, are all right
in there competing lor tne coea
pocketbook.
1NU sets iveynote.
Brand new TNC Marilyn Hart-
sook set the keynote for this
spring and summer when she
wowed the Coed Follies watcners
with her crisp black and yellow
ensemble. The landslide business
in cottons and wash dresses of
all kinds evinces the mighty urge
which always hits tne campus
gals around this time of the year
that flighty feeling which
nudges them and whispers, "Go
'wan, it's cotton time bring out
the old pinafore, mother, they'll
never catch me then!"
