We 7he Women.
To boost our self-esteem. we like
to recall the remarks of numbers
of visitors at Penn State who have
admired the comely appearance
and careful grooming of the co
eds.
Recently, however, information
has been received at the Dean of
Women's office that some coedp
have been attired, shall we say
sloppily, when they go on bus or
train journeys. This certainly
doesn't reflect well on Penn State's
name, or for that matter on Penn
State coeds.
With' travel conditions as they
are today, coeds are not expected
to travel in the very latest style
from Schiow's, but they are ex
pected to 'travel neatly and to be
well groomed, and thereby prove
that the human element of the
College equals the beautiful sur_
roundings.
