PAGE EfGHT I nformal Hail Dinner, Storer Says Hew Version Lacks Old English Theme "Informal dress." Ruth M. Moyer '44, WSGA president. said last night as she announced an other change in McAllister Hall Christmas dinner plans. Accord •ing to a former announcement by WSGA Senate, coeds were to wear formal gowns to the banquet set for McAllister Hall at 6 p. m. Mon- The• ruling was changed so that more women may have an oppor tunity to attend the affair, Miss .Storer explained, but stressed that although the dinner is now in formal. sweaters and skirts are not to be worn. Coeds wishing to wear gowns may do so, according to the !president. Contrary to the set-up in past years, the dinner will be limited to women who regularly eat in ffAcAlrster Hall dining room. The increased number of coeds and re :tultarit crowded conditions • make it imnossible to hold the custom ary banquet open to all College women. Christmas carols and candlelight :ire. in fact, all that remain of the traditional Old English dinner. 'Trumpeters. forkless eating, and )ords , and ladies 'have gone the way. of other wartime non_essen tials. for the duration, according 1» Senate ruling. • "No program has been planned this year, so that the banquet will not take study time when women :ire 'busy with blue books," Miss Storer said. Awarding of Mortar Board and Cwen scholarships, for merly a part of the program, will not take place Monday night. As a :result of acceleration, coeds will cat. sing carols, and return to studies.

Students of Art Education 14 and members of the Home Economics Council are responsible for the display. The figures 4n the cradle, com posed of newspapers, were made by students of Art Education 14 as part of a class problem involving the making of costless Christmas decorations that used no priority materials. Newspapers are camou flaged with mint. Members of Home Economics Council made the backdrop of sil ver stars, trimmed the two Christ mas trees in the lobby, and helped arrange the figures in the creche. The display will be on exhibi tion until Christmas. MacNabb Attends White House Lunch as Guest of First Lady What does the First Lady serve for lunclie!on on meatless days? "The W:hite. House strictly ob serves rationing but none the less this was about the best food I have ever had," . lir:bert S. MacNabb '45 said after his personal visit with Mrs. Roosevelt and war officials. MacNabb went to Washington as the guest of the First Lady; he met Mrs. Roosevelt at a conference at Hood College and last week he re_ ceived a telegram from her asking him to visit the White House. The luncheon menu was tomato soup, ash en casserole, mashed po tatoes and peas. Marshmallows and jello with a lemon sauce made an attractive dessert. Coffee in demi tasse cups and candy ended the luncheon. Finger bowls added a touch of the unusual. "Women can do anything men do, provided it does not take brute strength," Mrs. Roosevelt said as they spoke informally about wo man's position in the war effort. . Assistimt Secretary of War Dorr added, "You can be certain that in the future women will take over a large burden in industry." Secretary Dorr said that he is . also looking forward to the future when women will be taking over 60 oercent of industry. When MaoNabb told of the Cur tiss-'Wright Aircraft Corporation's plan to send 125 women to this College for engineering training, Dori. commented, "That is very fine. In the future, that. kind of Hillcrest House, home economics training will probably take up management house, will have- a most of the college facilities under Christmas dinner party at 6:30 to= the army plan." onight. 129 W.

Women Prefer Warmth To flattery—Slacks Wearing Continues Maybe Ogden Nash had the right idea when he plaintively de - - dared Bedeck yourself in floppy Yours are the limbs, my sweel ing. You look divine as you ad vance But have you seen yourself retreating? At any rate, Penn State. men. heartily agree with Mr. Nash's sen timents. And they certainly are not hesitant about voicing their views on the subject. They make highly audible remarks ,about it in classes; they take polls to prove their point; they write articles about it in Collegian. But 10-degree weather, accom-. panied by icy blasts, is mighty hard on the unprotected portion of coeds' legs between anklets and skirt hems, and. since Tuesday floppy pants of all colors (and sizes, the men would probably add) have been invading the cam pus. They may not be flattering but they're warm, and until some one makes a deal with the weather man, coeds will wear 'em. ca n, to harrying to the College Root More
