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

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?
