Kappa Sigma Fraternity Gives Annual 'Black And White' Dance
The "black and white" formal dinner-dance, a traditional event for Kappa Sigma fraternity chapters over the continent, was held in the chapter house at 1045 West Hills road Saturday night.
A realm of black and white was created as black crepe paper walls in the hall and living room were overlaid with twisted white streamers. The false black ceiling in the living room was also draped with white streamers.
A large cast of the fraternity crest over the fireplace was illuminated by a special light so that alternate rays of black and white streamed from the crest to the edges of the fireplace.
Two classic Greek columns in the living room were the setting for a painted backdrop of a scene from ancient Greece.
The morning room and the red room, off the living room, were decorated with abstract drawings of dominoes and piano keys and notes. Black and white crepe roses were used on the border trimmings in each room.
Dinner was served at candlelit tables. Each table was decorated with red ribbon and green leaves representing the fraternity colors, scarlet, white and green.
The dinner consisted of filet mignon, escaped potatoes, fantasy salad, frozen peas, assorted relishes, ice cream meringue and coffee.
During dinner Dick Fowler played piano music. Charles Livingood and his orchestra provided music for the rest of the evening.
The chaperones were Mrs. Frank M. Baird, Thomas A. Clark, Mrs. J. I. Hollingsworth and Mrs. Dna M. Stewart.

Have You Ever Wanted A Banana Coat Chances Are You'll Get It Before Long
Washington —(U,P)— I've always wanted a suit made out of banana peel and pineapple. And if everything goes according to plan, I may get it.
It's in the works.
The Mutual Security agency has announced the design of a new hand com by a U.S. technician and the beginning of a long range program or developing "exciting new fabrics" from native sources such as pineapple and banana fibers.
The MSA concludes that the Philippines is "well on its way to a major place in the world textiles market."
I can already see future advertisements: "You, too, will look smart in a half pineapple — half banana suit," or "Come in and try on the latest—a black dyeed pineapple topcoat and have a look at our light green banana sports shirts." This isn't fun-poking. The MSA
Marianne Strengell, a wheel in the American textile industry, develo-
mented an IOB tool and used it on a sheeI she is in Philippines on technical assistance project sponsored jointly by Economic Cooperation Administration (now the Mutual Security Agency) and the United Nations.
Hour dance, 7-8 p.m. Wednesday,

It seems that the narrow, weighty loom the natives once used could not turn out material wide enough to sell to any large extent. The 42-inch wide materials from the new loom can compete on the world market with machine-made fabrics.

Official Bulletin
The loom (called a "flyshuttle") is simple in design. It can weave anything from pineapple fiber to jute and will be manufactured in the Phillippines for the islands' 25,000 home weavers.
Gustafson COLLEGE - JEWELER 809 Mass.
The whole idea of the new loom is to make use of native fibers. Miss Strengell carried on a long research program, testing this fiber and that.
When Miss Strengell and a group of experts went to the islands they were determined not to upset the routine of the people by imposing alien methods upon them.
History club, 7 p.m. Wednesday Pine room, Union. Election to History Club Committee. John B George, representative of the Institute of Current World Affairs, speaker.
They were concerned more with the full development of Philippine resources and skills. They built the new loom mostly from wood that the natives could get in their own jungles.
"The fiber which seems to hold most possibilities," she said, "is that which comes from the banana. It is soft, has a beautiful sheen and a silvery cast and the fiber is long enough to spin easily."
Women's Hairstyles Are More Than They Are Cut Up To Be
Women's latest hairstyles have humorously been tagged by the male world as one end of a'dog or the other end of a horse.
Bv DIANNE STONEBRAKER
The former refers to the poodle cut, and is characterized by hair stripped and ruffled like head lettuce. The latter refers to the horsetail style, where the hair is yanked backward from the scalp and held in position by ribbons or some facsimile.
The male, of course, looks upon this new vogue as just another female fad, but in reality this so-called fad illustrates a very basic difference between the male and female worlds.
At least we of the feminine world do not grow stagnant in our fashions. A man either has hair or a crew cut, and that's about it. To illustrate the point further, women's skirts go up and down, but men's pants remain the same length year after year. Well, you men might ask, so what are you trying to prove?
And now look at the men. There has been the era of the powdered
Consider for a moment, my dear young men, the female hairstyle eras. There has been the pompadour, the Gibson girl knot, the cooie cut, complete with "rats," the spit curl, the bang, the bob, the feather cut, the Toni home permanent and now the poodle cut and horsetail.

Which only goes to prove that although men's hairstyles may last longer than those of a woman, women's hair lasts longer.
