Much to our surprise, the ar
gyle socks are not as popular as
they have been previously. The
three quarter length and knee
socks are now considered mustS.
Then too, athletic socks now come
in deep, rich colorS, consequently,
they have stolen the spotlight
from the argyle.
AS for the collegemai1's coat, he
seldom wears one, except on dress
OCCASIONS. He finds more comfort
in the three-quarter length SUI
burban and trench coats. The
latest coat to invade his wardrobe
is the viking coat, which has
wooden, oblong buttons, deep
patch pockets, in three-quarter
length and has matching hood.
AS one can see, some of the
things a college male now consid-
ers proper is quite different from
the conventional. Do we approve
of these? Certainly, we wear them
ourselves. (Section on male fadS

special article on the Booker T.
Washington Centennial which is
now appearing in newspapers all
over the country.
Schuyler's current appraisal of
Booker T. Washington is one of

leading writers which will be pub

"What the Negro needed Tin the

FASHION FAOs FOR SO

The smart American college
Miss tries to keep in vogue with
the latest, however, it isn't at all
times possible to secure all the
fashionable trends due to a rather
strict budget. There are, how
ever, many things the average
coed can get at a reasonable price
from her monthly allowance.
For the casual look in class and
sport attire, the new Ivy-League
skirt and blouse are ait" The
eye catching buckle on the back is
quite the same as the male.
Wouldn't you know they just had
to imitatel
The italian Look" has invad-
ed all campuseS and the ladies
blouSes. 1t is not odd to see many
of the Italian originals or copies
among the feminine sex.
Although the Dior ''Flat Look"
has been the rage and most con-
troverSial fashion issue since dreS-
ses became longer, it offers little
or no attraction for the coed who
feels that the fiat look f1attens
out ones more attractive features.
Most of them will agree that the
Empire WaiStline dress has a de-
finite place in the wardrobe, es-
pecially the cocktail, party or
street dress.
Like their male counterpart, the
coed likes the comfort of "bucS."
They seem even more comfort
able when they are dirty!-ASk
any girl on the campus.
BalbuShkaS or head scarfS are
always on the femme list of win
ter necessities. Along with these,
for casual dress, the campus coed
wears bobby-Sox, mostly of white
or white with colored tops.
Surprisingly, the college males
wardrobe has been receiving just
about as much attention as his
counterpart sex's wardrobe. One
might wonder why, and we would
venture to say the contemporary
college male is interested in being
recognized by his choice of
clothes and the manner in which
he and his clothes compliment
each other. Yet, we would not say
that the males wardrobe would
win anybody'S best dressed con-
test. Rather, he is interested in
being collegiate and comfortable
as well
Suppose then, we turn our at
tention to some of these fadS
which the college male considers
a must. The most important fad
which seems to have just taken
over the college campuSes is the
Ivy League. This style really isn't
new for it was quite popular back
some vars ago. The Ivy style
comes in hats, jackets, Stacks, and
suits. The belt and buckle is the
trade mark for this particular fad
and the materials are quite con-
ventional, ranging from khaki to
flannel, and reaching its peak in
corduroy.
The college male is almost sure
to have several slipover sweaters
in both the crew and v-nects.
His shoes, much to our dismay
are those things called "deSert
boots These shoes gained their
popularity in the past two years.
They are characterized by their
high tops, and two or three eye
lets. These boots come in rus,
