In Fashion's

Favor

* * *
Here is a suit that's a "smoothie"
on any campus and it goes to coke
bars or classes with equal "suit-
ability."
The braid trimming in bright and
contrasting colors is featured in all
fashion magazines this fall, but no
one wears it with more smartness
than the college girl'.
Notice that the skirt is straight,
as befits our war styles, but still it
has some of the flare for which
, .. t
we've developed such a taste the
past few seasons. And notice, too,
that the jacket manages te retain
the long, smooth lines we love.
The buit in this fall's new rich
colors is a beauty, and you'll wear
it oft to be both stylish and com

slogan which the Oratorical Associa-

Chase, three of America'sdforemost
women, in the Lecture Course for

group of lectures, will be Ilka Chase,
famed 'for;her achievements as an
actress, a radio mistress of 'ceremon-
ies, and from her recent autobiogra-
phy, "Past Imperfect". Typical of
her wit is the answer she gave to an
acquaintance who remarked, "I en-
joyed your book, "Past Imperfect";
who wrote it for you?" Miss Chase
replied, "I'm glad you enjoyed the
book-who read it to you!"
Success On Broadway

Chase include "The Animal king-
dom" and the role of Sylvia Fowler
in Clare Boothe's "The Women". She

the .shots. One hunter came out'of
a cabin to -take his turn, asked what
to shoot at and was told, "the red-
labeled box on the hill." :He fired at
the red he sawe, and Mr. Jump- fell
dead, a 'bullet in his head.

To handle the fees required from
the parents of pupils at the Perry
Nursery School, a volunteer book-
keeper is being sought through the
Civilian Defense Volunteer Office.
This school, which is crowded with,
the children of war workers and for.
which there is a waiting list besides,
is supervised through the WPA and
staffed in part with volunteers, since
the needs of the small pupils are
such that they cannot be completely
met by available paid workers.
By federal regulation the WPA
staff is not permitted to handle fi-
nancial transactions. A qualified
bookkeeper is needed twice a week
on a volunteer basis, preferably at'
the noon hour.
Efficient operation of this school
between the hours in which parents
are employed on the day shift at
war factories, states the CDVO in
undertaking to fill this request, Will
