Scotch Plaids Will Invade Footwear Styles;

Designers To Feature 'Boodle'

For Annual Senior Formal Ball,
Ticket Sales Now Open to All Students;

Plaids have taken this year's
fashion styles by storm.
Not only the garment industry
but the public as well have voiced
their approval of plaids as the
fashion of the year.
Believe it or not, plaids have
even invaded the shoe industry.
The very latest styles are the
Boodle and the Sugar Scoup which
will be available about the mid-
die of July.
* * *
THESE TWO new and different
styles both feature the Spey Royal
plaid. This particular tartan de-
sign was created especially for
the famous Gilbey Gin and Spey
Royal Scotch family, W. A. Gilbey
of London.
The plaid is a faithful repro-
duction in the true highland
tradition of full-bodied color
combinations. The pattern, na-
turally, is a slightly smaller
plaid than the Spey Royal
plaid offered in yard goods.
Bright red blocks, small black
squares with small, tantalizing
gold over-plaid in groups of threes
make up the design.
BOODLE is a high cut moccasin
with a leather wedge heel. It has
a leather cuff ending in v-flaps
in front with a small tie in front.
Sugar Scoop has an all plaid
top. It is a slip-on pump, cut
away slightly at the side, with
a modified v-throatranda
rounded toe. The heel is black
leather.
This plaid will be found in yard
goods and many other individual
ready-to-wear accessories which
can be worn as separates or in
interesting combinations.

Nod of Approval

As Coeds Appear in Sprightly

spring

Cottons

By MARGE REUBENE
With Spring and the appearance
of sprightly cottons, there seems
to come a voice of approval from
the male population of the 'Uni-
versity.
When one of the applauders was
questioned as to why he preferred
women's spring clothes he replied
emphatically, 'They look more like
women!" "I also like them in
shorts," he added.
* * *
ANOTHER answered, "Leaves
less to the imagination," and re-
fused to comment further.
"They're gay instead of drab,"
"wholsome," "Look much fresh-

er," were more comments of-
fered. "That winter stuff is
stuffy" continued a protester!

All

approved vigorously to pea-
blouses. "Especially those
shoulder jobs. By the way,
DO they stay up?"

* * *
SUN DRESSES were voted "Nice
if the wearer has good looking
shoulders and arms - otherwise
nothing is more horrible." In re-
gard to the strapless styles one
enthusiastic male merely clapped
his hand vigorously.
"It's amazing how distracting
Spring can be-" was reported

from one who ought to know.
"Yes," said another, "I'd even
go so far as to say that in the
Spring four out of five women
are beautiful and one of the
four goes to Michigan!"
"Thank goodness for Spring!,"
hailed a University male. "The
coeds take off those flapping
coats."
Several, however, were dubious
about approving the cottons.
"They don't look so good after a
rain storm" and "winter clothes
are much neater looking" were
two dissenting votes.
But in general, the men are
agreed that Spring brings a wel-
come change to m'lady's wardrobe.
