WEDNESDAY APRIL 23; 1941 for The Casual- Ifis Wash Frocks "Neat and novel" must have been the slogan for manufac turers of this season's wash dresses. Shops are crowded with coeds choosing cheeked" ginghams, flowered: seersuckers, striped chambrays or plain per -cales which they will wear. cas ually and comfortably to classes. Styles range from 'little-girl dresses with rounded collars and full skirts to severely-tailored" .sports dresses. Colors range from pretty pinks to violent greens and stop at all. points in between. On cool .days the, inevitable skirts and sweaters reappear. Plaid• pastel skirts with- light sweaters are good, as are tail ored blouses. Sometimes a sports jacket is added to make a suit. . For picnics , slacks or shorts are best because they wrinkle and absorb mustard with more finesse than most dresses. A possible, compromise is the three piece . outfit—shirt; slacks, and skirt. Saddle shoes—mellowed but not run-down—with ankle socks matching your outfit are recom mended. Occasionally, how ever, it is wise to smooth up a bit and wear spectators and stockings_ (unless, of course, your legs are well tanned.) Alpha Chi Omega will enter tain Alpha Tau Omega at a cof fee hour at 7. o'clock tonight.

Ifs suits don't strike -your maidenly fancy, try a summer print in cotton or silk jersey with a coat or jacket for cool - evenings. Dresses with short matching jackets are quite the rage these days.

Warnock explain ed the administration's predica ment last night. "It is not like ly that the College can draw the line on a few individuals as in dispensable to College govern ment," he said. "Only men ne cessary to College defense are recommended." In recognizing the problem, the Cabinet decided to confine its appeal only to the case of Baird and Doherty. If both men are drafted, the senior class president will assume the chairmanship, not presidency, of the Cabinet, according to a Constitutional provision. Baird alMost escaped the draft when he was slated to en ter the Marine Reserve but was rejected in the final application because he was too old.

Complex Labels Stymie Consumer - Trie era of price tags has pass ed into nothingness and with its passing comes the introduction of the Complex label denoting fabric construction, composition, finishing process, and dyes. Con sumers, faced with the task of interpreting the manufacturers' mystic symbols, are stymied. • Crease resistant finishes _are titled Tebelized, Vitalized, T.8.L., or Broadhurst and Lee; fabrics especially treated to resist mois ture may be found under such names as Aqua-sec, Neva-wet, Impregnole, or Zelan. Pre-shrunk .labelling does not mean necessarily that material will not shrink but only that some of the shrinking has been removed. Percentage of residual shrinkage is required on fabrics • thus. labelled. Texurity and London shrunk pertain to pre shrunk woolens while cottons are Sanforized, Wata:set, or Appon ized. Silks must be marked for the amount of weighting or added chetnical material and can not be titled pure silk, pure dye, 'or un weighted if they contain more than 10 per cent of added ma terial. The Federal. Trade. Com mission has also, made numerous other rules about the labelling of silk to prevent the former unfair practices• of . manufacturers on. • unsuspecting consumers.
