Women's Sport Shoes 'Cover a Lot of Ground' • The last few years have shown new and fascinating trends in women's sport shoes. In the early '4o's, everyone, but, everyone, was wearing dirty, beat-up saddle shoes. .Vivid \ plaid and colored shoe strings were finally added to give the foot-apparel some gaity. Loafers were next on the agenda. For some reason, these had to be kept clean, or the female was a social outcast. Much embarrass ment resulted in classes and in the movies when careless girls kicked off their shoes and were unable to find them again. Black moccasins next paraded up and down the "halls of learn ing" and around campuses. These got so sloppy that if a shoestring broke, the next step was taken in stocking feet. The 'so's rolled in with a brand ned fad—"the cat." Shades of any color or shape were the vogue. Many a female heart was broken during a flash rainstorm when her beautiful suede shoes. became water spotted. College males revived an. old '2O love—the white bucks. Many a coed eyed the approaching male foot with envy. (After she had started with the head and worked down.) Well, why not? Soon as many girls as, fellows were seen wandering around in white bucks. A new trend appeared in 1953 in the for m of colored tennis shoes. They may be here for some Bring. Your Easter Vacation Films Back to Us. 10 to 5 Service Centre County Film Lab In W.

Vic's is, always ready to 'serve - you the best food in town or campus. V. IC S 145 S. ALLEN ST. By ANN LEDERMAN For the women, , it means a shop ping spree, from which they re turn triumphantly, loaded down with the frilly, flowery hats and accessories, or oddities, whichever you prefer, that are seen' in church on Easter Sunday. Let Ladies Shine At this time, we can pity the poor fathers, especially .when the local ads read invitingly, "Send the bill home to Dad." We wonder how many coeds take up the store on this invitation? The men, however, prefer to let the ladies have the limelight in this department, and are sat isfied with the old gray flannels and perhaps a new tie to brighten the over-all picture. At least, they pretend to be satisfied, but when you come right down to it, do they really have a choice in the matter? For both sexes, spring vacation gives that oI d spring fever a much-needed chance to run its course completely. After fighting for weeks to get to classes, whe ther on time or not, and to be at least partially prepared, we • find ourselves wit h absolutely no classes and no books to worry about except of course, that thousand-word theme and the paper on aero-dynamics that was due a week before vacation began. Spring Fever Arrives We are free to do whatever we want to with our time, unless: we count the kitchen mom needs painted and the garage we prom ised our neighbor we'd help him build: There are, of course, those of us who, when spring fever actually arrives, find that the spring fever we'had all-year-round has tripled, and we are fit to do absolutely nothing, which is exactly what we proceed to do. It may be possible to find the energy to help little sister dye Easter eggs; (we probably enjoy it more than she does)' a custom that some duchess named Rosi linda von Lindenburg came up with too many hundreds of years ago to matter. Egg-rolling Here? We may also thank the duchess for starting the yarn about the proverbial Easter bunny, for after dyeing all the eggs in town and hiding them in the forest for the children, she didn't have the nerve to stand up for her act, and put all the blame on an innocent hare. _Speaking of Eastei eggs, we would like to point out the pos sibilities of having egg-rolling festivities at Penn State, since we now have the same qualifications as Washington, D.C. Not only do we have a President named Eisen hower, but it is very easy to find pairs of students on campus in the spring (another symptom of spring fever). Since a rule of the capital's contest is that the egg-rolling must be done in pairs, what more could you ask? PAGE F!VB
