We, The Women—
A Toast To 1941
It Looks Good -
1940—a year •of war and need—
is over and 1941 has made a suc
cessful entrance. In this technical
beginning of a new decade there
are many bright spots which col
legiates can look forward to:
THERE is the opening up of
new jobs caused by the expansion
of building and industry. In a re
cent month there was . a greater
business turnover than in any
month since historical 1929, ac
cording to economists. Our elders
cheer - us by saying that the 1941
and 1942 College classes will, have
better job opportunities than any
class since the twenties.
WITH U. S. defense_ industries
working at capacity, British of
fensive successes crowded into
headlines, and continued Greek
victories, democracy seems to have
a chance 'to regain its foothold in
1941.
FOR the energetic there is
plenty to accomplish in the com
ing year.
FOR historians there is- a chance
to see history being made.
AND for the philosophers there
is a chance to sit in arm chairs
and watch the world go by.
THERE may be loopholes, but
surveying the scene in January,
things look bright.
HERE'S to 1941.
'Boys Are Dying To Go'
Says This Bright toed
Dear Aunt Mary:
Just had to drop you a line tell
ing you that I'm wearing the new
formal you and uncle Jim gave
me for Christmas to the annual
Panhellenic Ball Friday night. Of
course, I haven't cinched a date
yet, but none of us are worrying
"cause all the boys are dying to
go." I really meant to ask some
one before vacation, but it still
isn't too late.
All the campus sorority women
will be at the Nittany Lion Inn
promptly at 9 p.m. that night to
hear, Jimmy Leyden and his band
when they begin beating it out.
We've been talking about it ever
since we - came back and can hardly
wait for the end of the week to
roll around. I'll write again to let
you know how my new dress and
I make out.
