Girls Show True Selves;
Clamor For Food at Sally's
By Carolyn Barrett
Those who wish to see coeds as
they really are should apply for
the job of selling Sallys.
Each night the shout of “Sallys”
changes quiet girls into starving
animals. Immediately after the
call, slippers can be heard clomp
ing down the stairs. The most
fashionable clothing to wear when
buying the snack are pajamas and
a housecoat.
Pajamas range from pastel flan
nel to rainbow striped cotton.
Housecoats may be so long that
they drag on the floor or short
enough to be worn as a jacket.
The time element determines
what style hairdo will be worn.
If “Sallys” comes early most of
the girls will have their hair
brushed and arranged very neat
ly. On the other hand if he comes
late, and studies have been es
pecially hard, hair will be disar
ranged, put up in pin curls or
wrapped in a towel to dry after
a quick washing.
Approximately five conversa
tions are held at the same time.
Roommates decide how many bot
tles of milk to buy, whether a
bar of candy would add too much
weight or what flavor of ice cream
is the best. Only one thing is
certain, submarine sandwiches
spring. This is the most dependable power for accurate
timekeeping ever put into a watch!
For four generations an Elgin Watch has been the
traditional graduation gift, a faithful companion and
constant reminder of the great day. Now is the time
to suggest that die gift you want most is an Elgin.

are too big and they can cause
much pain.
All this time the poor fellow
waits very patiently hoping to
make a big sale. His sale usually
consists of a few sandwiches, some
ice cream, milk and apples.
After all the transactions have
been completed and the salesman
is about to depart, a few of the
firls engage him in conversation.
he only way he gets away is to
say “I’m due at the next dorm in
five minutes.”
He still doesn’t leave because
someone yells that she wants an
other sandwich. Unhappily he
lowers the basket and the ice
cream box, closes the half-opened
door, and gets the sandwich.
Finally the door closes and
within an hour the dorm is quiet
and books are open again.

mester, the pledges of Alpha Xi
