' • Maybe there is an answer. .If
enough "house functions" arise
to take the place of prom going,
perhaps the crowds won't be as
great, and the ticket exchange
won't be such a tough battle.
But then too, the lost revenue
may mean the • downfall of
proms altogether'. Anybody have
any suggestions?

Dungaree Drag Makes
Every Year Leap Year
By MIMI UNGAR
Many things take four years— it takes you four years to get
through high school, four years to get a college degree—and it also
takes four years for Leap Year to arrive.
Cwens, sophomore women's hat society, doesn't wait for leap
years to sponsor its annual Dungaree Drag. Sadie Hawkins has
taken the spotlight for the past
seven years at the annual infor
mal. girl-ask-boy affair.
One of the famed statements is
"Leap Year's here grab while
the grabbing is good." Although
much of leap year has passed,
many Cwens are still using this
as a sales angle when approach
ing potential ticket • buyers.
Tickets for the Drag, priced
at $1.50 per couple. are on sale
at the Student Union desk in
Old Main, and at booths in front
of the Carnegie Hall bulletin
board and th e Corner Room.
They *ill also be sold• at the
door.
The hundred's who have said
the "word" will be dancing from
9 p.m. 'to midnight tomorrow in
Recreation Hall to the music of
Tiack Huber and his orchestra.
To make the women do' all the
preliminary work, one of the fea
tures of the annual affair is for

Theta Si% Speaker
LENORE BRUNDIGE, women's
fashion and feature editor of

at a tea for women journalism
students from 3 to 4:30 p.m.

lounge. The tea is sponsored

Several other newspaperwomen

the preparation of corsages by the
women for the men to wear. The
man wearing the most original
corsage will receive a prize for
his escort's efforts.
Though many consider it nat
ural to think of Sadie Hawkins
when mentioning Leap Year, it
is doubtful that the original
meaning of the ter in implied
dungarees. However, draggers
will carry the term to its loosest
construction when they appear in
their dungarees—the official dress
for the affair.
Many women may have qualms
each time a girl-ask-boy affair
rolls around—they may be - shy,
you know. But when no one is
around, they manage to do the
asking in their modest ways.

PAGIO
thru the
looking 'Glass
with Gabbi
Saw a sign- in an office the
other day that read, "Silence is
Golden." I'm a firm believer
in that quotation ... that's why
they call me "sonny boy" -in
class. All right, Gabb!---cut the
comedy and get on with the
column.
JUST IN CASE . . .
Is your roommate the kind of person
who's always "mooching" a cigarette.
from you? In that case, why not throw
her a subtle hint and give her a cig
arette case for her very own? Saw a
beautiful selection at Ethel's the other
day. The leather kind that you just
press—and presto! your cigarettes are
visible. Really unique. A rainbow se
lection for only $2.00.
LET'S REST A WHILE . . .
By the way, I just happened to think
or the "proverbized" leather book
marks I saw at Ethels'. They all say the
cutest things—" Here I fell asleep,"
"Let's rest a while," etc. —the per
fect little reminders for the over-stud
ious (at State?) students. And, you
can't beat the price anywhere—juSt a
mere quarter for any of the many to
choose from. , .
"CONVERSATION PIECES"
While we're on the subject of conver
sation pieces, let me tell you about the
note paper I bought the other day.
There's just one word to describe. it ...
ADORABLE!! (There I go getting
feminine again). But 'really, Penna.
Dutch motifs are adorable ... especially
When they're boxed and raring. to sell
at only $l.OO a box.
GOING - - going . . .
Yes, everything's going down at Ethers
. . . so, you'd better hurry down, too—
and as for me, I'm about gone. (Go
girl, go ! ! !)
