FOX '45 "Educating the consumer is the chief problem which must be solved by manuf6cturers of man made fibers," Miss Alice Haley, representative of the- Celanese Corporation of America stated yesterday. Miss Haley, former College home economics professor and member of the American Home Economics Association, returned to campus Thursday to lecture to home economics classes on cloth ing conservation. Demonstrating her talk with, sample fabrics, the former in structor pointed out that the av erage buyer of rayon materials is handicapped by inadequate knowledge of how to take care of them. Too much heat, Miss Haley explained,', is the worst enemy of chemical fibres. "We need to remake qur meas uring sticks," Miss Haley said concerning the relative merits of new textiles as compared to vege table fibers. "Although some man-made textiles require more care than natural ones, they are superior in several ways." "There will be a clothing short age," Miss Haley said, "since even chemical materials are being con verted to military purgoses. However, newer textiles are con- stantly being discovered to re place those which must be used for defense, so the shortage will. he less severe," she 'added.

Stevenson Reminds Here's Our Salt— By M. J. WINTER With Pepper, Too ComMent on any subject as in herently controversial as going sorority or remaining indepen dent must be taken with whole shaker full of salt. Outstanding among the grains is the old trite truth, "It's your decision." It is, too. For example, only you can determine whether your parents can afford the initial and monthly financial output which sororities demand. Only you can evaluate the hackneyed pros and cons of remaining independent or going Greek. It's up to you to apply a men tal microscope to the houses where you've been entertained. What will they be like after .the party decorations have been stor ed? Are they the type of coeds whom you want for close friends? Do you "fit in?" What if you don't join? What ii you haven't been rushed? It will seem important . tomorrow, perhaps, or even next month. You may enviously visualize col ored ribbons on your own white blouse and,'• in general, • wonder 'what you're missing. Our answer to that is this: Colored ribbons, or even the gold pins which they herald, are un related to success and happiness in College. As for Missing something, ac tivities which challenge abilities, or making the dean's lists, or going. on picnics or dancing are other things" - which shouldn't be missed In other words, you can't have everything. What you want what you get—is up to you. Sources Of Vitamins Basis For Exhibition Best fbod sources of Vita Min A, thiamin, ascorbic acid, and rib oflavin will be displayed in the nutrition exhibit in 209 Home Economics Building 'from 1. to 5 p. m.
