1.n .. Search ;for New r 'Foshiopis
By AL MUNN • -
Females ‘a the species have been aPpropriating • animal skins for their wardrobes
'for a good many years. Female 'apparel in leather heretofore had included articles from
hats to shoes and this season adds something new—leather collars.
These leather strips,p, that look like sun-visors, come in a variety of colors and styles.
Ranging from natural tans and browns to vivid greens and purples they are a bit dif#-
cult to ignore. Some are • even reversible two collars in one, how about that?
Getting them around the neck sometimes presents a problem. One type has, little gros
grain ribbons; ateach edge and the idea is to tie a pretty bow,. like for a baby's bonnet.
,
Another way to secure them is to stick a specially designed safety pin (just ups the cost
a. little) through two holes and
hope the pin doesn't break. Sys
tems .of snaps, buttons and clips
haVe also been devised by the
manufacturers..
• . They Shrink
, According to
,girls who have
worn them, collars present a few
problems. Over a sweater in a
warm room they are more than
slightly hot and not: at all porous.
The only solution'is to remove the
collar and that just isn't stylish,
so the wearer suffers. - -
One girl claims that her collar
started' to shrink in a hard rain
one afternoon and - she almost
choked. It was a very ambarras
sing situation because her blue
face didn't match the green collar.
Fads or Fashions?
Women used' to have an ex
tremely difficult time trying to
buy shoes, belts and purses in
exactly the same shade of leather.
The shopping tour is now ex
tended another hour matching a
collar.
Like a lot of other things, call
them fads or fashions, leather col
lars appeal to a number of women.
Wearing the many things required
to, be well-dressed fortifies fe
males for almost anything, even
collars. Well, dogs wear them!

Time was when the Smiths and

Freshman Women Learn to Cope
With Trials of Late Permissions
This weekend is an eventful one for freshman women. It will be
the first time since they have entered Penn State that they will be
allowed to "live it up" a bit outside the dorms until 1 a.m.
Most freshman women will probably take this precious first one
o'clock on Saturday , for the Dungaree Drag.
one o'clock may seem a
real treat to the frosh who has
done without late hours for so
long, but it will not be long until
she will begin to envy her older
friends in the sophomore, junior
and senior classes who have the
advantage of two one o'clocks per
weekend,
The one o'clock may affect the
frosh in one of two ways. For
some, the evening will be one of
constant clock-watching, not out
of boredom (we hope), but in de
termination to make it back to the
dorm before zero hour.
Consequently, this coed gives
her date the wrong impression,
causing both to, have a mediocre
time. Others, however, will find
this release into night life so
invigorating that 12:56 a.m. Will
find them waking to the realiza
tion that they- have only four
minutes to sign in.
- The real experience for most
freshman women will be watch
ing the weekly 12:59 traffic jam.
Overcoming the one o'clock is a
major accomplishment. It is a sur
vival of the fittest.

Weekend Plans

Future Farmers of America will
initiate new agriculture freshmen
at 7 p.m. Monday in 100 Horti

ley, president.
Now the dorm postmistresses
could surely 'put the right „letters
4n the right boxes if only the
names were similar. But Marcie
and Margie have the same mail
box number, only one is in Ath
erton and the other in Simmons.
Solution Sought
Frederick. MacDohald; probably
doesn't have too much trouble
being mistaken for Jerome Mc-
Donald ,or •Ronald, nor do the
girls often get confused with the
men. But all of these good people
have their last names spelled the
other way at least ten times a
week:
If any one hps any quick and
sure solution to this terrible situa
tion, please leave it in my Col
legian mailbox. The name is Mac-
Donald. Marcie MacDonald.
