How about the Pennsylvania Phi
Bete who walked into a State Street
grocery and said to the clerk, "Give
me a poke." Rumor whispers that his
entire eleven o'clock was consumed
before he got the paper bag he want-1
ed.
And then there was the case of the
freshman from Pittsburgh who sud-
denly decided that her room needed
"redding up." No, she didn't paint;
bright banners and sickles on her
wall, or sprinkle red poppies on the
carpet. Her roommate finally dis-
covered that "redding" meant clean-,
ing up the room, when she saw that -
several layers of dust had vanished
from the floor.

Martha Cook Gives Tea
About 100 former Martha Cook
residents attended the Alumnae Tea
yesterday afternoon in the Martha
Cook Be Room. Heart-shaped sand-
wiches, ice, cakes, ice cream and tea
were served. Chairman was Eleanor
Smith, '39.
chin bushes when they marry and]

"it makes wet" is the usual remark
about the weather. The next time
the door bell battery runs downI
they will-,belikely to say "Bump, the
bell- don't make."
People around Mosher Hall are
still mumbling about the cruelty of
the little brunette who mentioned
that she always put grease on her
spider before she fixed the bacon
and eggs. In this case the spider was
an old black skillet, not her pet web
maker, however.
Students from Dayton, Ohio have
to hold on to their tongues with both
their hands to keep from saying,
"Well?" after their friends' remarks.
If someone says, "Golly, I look like
a bored junk pile," it's so easy to
say, "Well??" implying that a bored
junk pile has a perfect right to look
like a bored junk pile.
What with Yankee accents, south-
ern drawls, and a lisp every now and
then, this campus could use a few
united statements in between.

Informality Is
Key To Dress
For Michigras
This little world's fair called the
Michigras that's coming off next:
weekend necessitates a serious thought
as to what the well-dressed girl wili
wear. Anove all other things dress-up
clothes are definitely not the thing
to appear in.
Casual clothes are the best bet-
saddle shoes and all that goes with
them. The smart suit shown in the
picture is one of the most appro-
priate things that could be worn. Ac-
cordion pleated skirts with sheer
blouses are cool and may easily be
cleaned to free them of the layers
and layers of dust that, accumulate.
Shirt waist dresses with full pleat-
ed skirts adapt themselves nicely to
dancing on the Pi Phi Pent House
and offer freedom while climbing on
and off the ferris wheel. It's going to
be a marvelous fair but promises to
be just as dusty as last year so the
final admonition is to go easy on the
light colored clothes.

ant advisers of freshman women will
