Co-elito
"Rain, rain, go away . . ." for there's a big weekend
ahead, but that's a foolish wish because Penn State can't have
a big weekend without low-hanging clouds and very wet show
ers. It was easy to tell that last weekend was comparatively
'dead around here, for the sun shone continuously . . . but
watch tonight . . . meteorolog
but this amateur predicts
thunder, lightning . . . and
rain.
And speaking of sunshine and
warm days (nobody was), Whip-
Tile' s dam, althouglh it bears no'
xesemblance to the Atlantic Ocean,
nevertheless looks like Coney
Island on Saturdays. Last week
end, the freshmen frolicked, the
sophomores splashed, the Alpha
Xis, Lampades, and SPEs picnick
ed, to say nothing of the Colle
gian staff, and other independent
groups who just were there.
Along Sorority Street
And along Sorority street things
have been buzzing. The Chi°
alums recently held .a picnic in
Houk. Woods Sir the cxetimes. Al5O
the ChiOs entertained the Tekes
Tuesday night and the Delts last
night. Gamma Phi Beta has in
stalled the following officers: Flor
enice Ratchford, president; Jo Peo- .
pies, vice-president; Anne Reese,
secretary; Meg Marcy, treasurer;
'and "Skeeter" Nelson, correspond
ing secretary. There was a dance
honoring the Phi Mu pledges at
the AGR house Saturday night,
and Monday the Phi Mu alums
he:d a picnic supper for the ac
tives.
No Peroxide?
And Fritz Troutman also wants
it known that he has dated eight
different NAURAL, blonds on eight
consecutive nights. (Ed. note: what
a guy won't do for publicity.)
It's all a prevarication when
people say hostesses are the most

GSO Ends War Record
After more than two years of operation, Girls' Service Organiza
tion, like other war agencies, has closed its books. G.S.O. was organ
ized in November, 1943, from the Junior Hostess Committee.
The Junior Hostess Committee was sponsored by the State College
Service Center formed by the. Citizens' Military Committee, and at the
suggestion of Mrs. J. Ewing Kennedy, Junior Hostess Committee
Chairman, it was developed into the GSO. Organized according to the
rules and regulations set up by the
National United Service Organiza
tion, GISO was recognized as a
campus organization in May, 1944.
Mrs. Kennedy continued a s chair
man of this group.
Every candidate wa s required
to attend a training course, con
sisting of three meetings, before
being a dmitted to membersihi•p.
The course stressed three. things:
"Charm Night," outward ap
pearance of the girls; "Military

Sunday. The Sigma Pi Orchid Ball
is on the, books for tomorrow
night, with imported music from
Wilkes-Barre.
Ladies Only
"Ed Monteverde, Phi Sigma
Kappa, recently pinned Nancy
Wylie." That's the news part of
this story, but the story behind
those headlines ha s a moral • for
enterprising young ladies of to
day. It seems that Ed is recovering
fz om appendicitis in the Bellefonte
Hospital and the pinning took
place at that institution, all of
which goes to prove, if you. want
a man, get hiim while he's down.
Sigma Pi has elected the. follow
ing officers: Walt Funk, president;
Bob Beisel, vice-president; Pat
Golightly, secretary; Fred Caccese,
treasurer; Bill Hollenback, alumni
secretary; Fred Smith, historian;
George Stirtinger, pledge trainer;
and Robert Day, housemanager.
The AOPis have a new motto:
"If you can ride, don't walk, but
if you can't ride, hitch-hike, espe
cially if it's five to eleven on a
weeknight." (ed. note: they got a
ride, too.)

Etiquette," what was expected of
the servicemen by the military
group; "The Need f Social Ac
tivities," relationship to changing
wartime conditions , .
Over 1000 Members
More than 1000 girls were
trained for membership in GSO.
Over $3OOO was raised by GSO and
spent in entertaining servicemen.
Approximately 25 social events
were held, and the groups also
cooperated with the Penn State
Christian Association in an open
house for servicemen. On Christ
mas Day, 1943, GSO, the Red Cross
Canteen, and townspeople gave a
tea dance and a supper dance in
the Armory. Several parties were
held in the garden of Mr. and Mrs.
Charles Schlow, but most of the
parties were held on campus.
Taught Dancing
Dancing instruction was given
to the men who could not dance or
who felt a little rusty. .A Dating
Bureau wa s maintained for the
men,
.and. GSO took part in the
Refugee Clothing Drive held on
campus.
The organization's last group of
officers had to pay off a debt of
$9O left by the former regime. By
collecting dues and selling all
property and equipment, they
were able to do it. After December
1, 194'5, when the A.S.T.P. left
campus, and the Naval R.O.T.C.
men were given full student status,
there was no longer need for GSO
and they voted to close their or
ganization as soon as their debt
could be paid.

most densely populated country

Ford, Kettering Hike
Women's Skirts
Upward
The modern coed can be grate
ful to Henry Ford for many of_the
trim, , comfortable clothes she
wears today. It was the introduc
tion of the motor car that dictat
ed a complete break away front'
the over-stuffed styles of grand
mother.
Can't you see her in winter
climbing into a "horseless carria
ge" wearing a full-length fur
coat, fur hat, and long fur-lined
gloves? •
A half-century ago chiffon
veils, wound around large. picture
hats a•nd tied under the chin• with
the long ends. flowing were pro
tection against wind and dust
from as yet unpaved roads. An
added precaution was a silk or
linen dust coat.
As there was no such thing as
a windshield in the old "tin liz
zies," goggles, dusters, and veils
were a necessity in milady's cos
tume.
With the invention of the self
starter in 1910 by Charles F. Ket
tering, a drastic change became
necessary. Since long skirts prov
ed to be a hindrance to the opera
tion of foot pedals, the natural
outcome was a tendency towardt
shorter skirts. This tendency
grew and grew. In anotiher fifty
year s who knows what women
will be wearing when they go out
for their afternoon drives?
