And if woman’s dependable ingenuity is put to use, there’s no reason why these same rooms can’t be turned into creations of origi- nal design. For a touch of variety from the ordinary bulletin board, frame a square of plyboard with a crepe paper or chintz ruffle and hang it with a gay ribbon or cord. Write home for an old round pic ture frame (that all good attics harbor) and fit it with a circle of desk blotter. Arrange in Series For a modernistic touch, cut a series of varying sized squares or rectangles from felt or desk blot ters and hang them with bright rope along one wall. Even Baby Sister’s wall blackboard can be put to use as a handy “jot it down” messenger for phone calls, shopping lists, or assignments due. Bulletin boards are compliment ed by skillful lighting effects. Unique lamps can be hand-made, with a long necked bottle and a socket fixture (available in any hardware store). Scour the shops until a cardboard lampshade, the exact color of the bulletin board, can be found. Or to renovate an old lamp' shade, wrap heavy wool yarn tightly over the frame. Line Closet Shelves Arrange the lamp on the dormi tory nightstand and place the combination under the bulletin board. The lamp shade will cast a glow up onto the bulletin board and turn , what was formerly a bare corner or wall into an at tractive point of interest. To add color to dorm closets, line the shelves with oilcloth or heavy, gay-colored lining paper. Cover shoe boxes and hat boxes By PEGGY McCLAIN Boroughs Warned Of Fake Campaigns The Chambers of Commerce of Stale College and Bellefonle warned its own members and the general public to be partic ularly careful in contributing to appeals and subscribing to solicitations. The groups stated jointly yesterday that the number of cases which border on the edge of legality and sometimes amount to misrepresentation is on the increase. with matching paper or material and stack the boxes along the top shelf of the closet. To convert a dormitory cot into a comfortable day bed, push the bed lengthwise against the wall, make a clever case for the pillow, and write home for a supply of multi-sized cushions. Arrange the lot on the bed along the wall. Scatter Ashtrays Scatter ashtrays conservative glass squares, * huge painted soup bowls, wrought iron creations, or decorated sea shells—on all avail able surfaces. Not only will coeds' cigarette-smoking friends ■ appre ciate a handy container at their fingertips, but the ashtrays will heighten the color scheme -of the room. And for a final touch of homi ness, line windowsills and empty desk corners with vines, plants, goldfish, or even tiny hand-paint ed turtles. They’ll all need water ing and care, but they’ll add a marvelous and interesting air 'of that “bedroom back home.” PAG6 FIVE
