Letters to the Editor- To the Coeds: Last Saturday's Daily carried an article, written by a coed, advising fellow members of her sex as to the best procedures to follow while dating or being looked at by servicemen, presumably referring to the local crop. From the looks of the story she got her information from a Girl Scout's Handbook dated 1917. The Michigan edition of the serviceman is not totally ignorant of the requiremento for social life and usually has most of the prerequisites. Rather, the conglomeration consists of men from all college campuses throughout the country with experience of from one to ten years at the best of sorority houses. Our friend stated that if a civilian had too many feet while on the dance floor the best bet was to sit out the evening getting secretarian spread at a bridge table. But, if G.I. Joe did it the deed must be excused because he is giving.his all for Uncle Sam. That's the one thing a soldier does not want. We aren't looking for sympathy. If we bore you, say so. If we step on your feet, collectively or otherwise, suggest a game of bridge; chances are that we can play it too. But don't build up a line or method of approach designed for servicemen. We hate it! As for clothes, just be natural. Skirts and sweaters are great for mid- week wear or informal USO dances. Those knee-high woolen stockings that are cropping up now were designed for Russian snipers and make even the prettiest pair of.legs look like those of a cold bovine. Dress clothes should be the .sam'e as always. If you look good in red, wear it, everyone else does. Don't be over-feminine though because the local soldier or sailor doesn't have time to cater to the whims of a vine-type female. She's poison ivy in his books. At your next USO function, Miss Coed, try to remember a few'of these points. They're yours to use when and if you please. If they seem far- fetched give them a brief trial anyway; we think they might work and know that at least they can't make matters worse. By PVT. T. A.

Chicago Servicemen's Centers Play Host to Over 6,000 Girls CHICAGO-(A)-The Chicago ser- vicemen's centers, rated among the nation's top places of entertainment for men in the armed forces, had a girlpower problem today-too many., A controversy over the dropping from the centers' membership lists of more than 300 girls disclosed that some 10,000 girls are waiting for a chance to go to the centers and dance with the servicemen. About 6,000 girls, between 18 and 30 years of age, have been granted membership in the centers and their duties consist of general social activ- ities,_ including dancing, playing games, and talking with the service- men one night a week. The girls' committee of the wom- en's advisory board of the centers last. week ruled that more than 300 girls. many of them members since the first of the three centers opened two years ago, should be dropped to make room for some of the 10,000 girls on the waiting list. But many of the girls who have received dismissal notices have pro- tested to center officials and have formed the servicemen's centers' vet- erans. Miss Clara Miller, a spokes- man for the group, said there weren't so many girls seeking to join the cen- ters two years ago when there were more civilian men than now. But Daniel L. Flaherty, adminis- trative director of the centers, said he believed the board's ruling was fair "and other girls should have the same privilege of serving that the original girls have had. Of course they can protest.
