The WAC program comes in three parts.
The army didn't take any chances in putting this program into effect at Camp Lee, Va. It placed Lt. Margaret E. Brewster, chief of the physical training branch at the camp, in charge.
A regular program of sports will be encouraged to develop skill in athletics and point up the importance of teamwork and good sportsmanship.

Farm Agent Speaks To Linnaean Club
Soil losses in the United States would fill enough freight cars to circle the earth 18 times, Deal Six, Douglas county farm agent, told the Linnaean club Wednesday.
Putting this loss in dollars, he said,
it would come to $3,844,000.00.
Mr. Six discussed terracing, crop rotation, and grass economy as parts of the soil conservation program. Conservation districts have been established in Kansas to apply these methods.
The Linnaean club meets monthly in 417 Snow hall.

Though Fashionably Dressed Our Women Aren't 'Elegant'
925-27 Mass.
By BARBARA BUNDSCHU
New York—(UP)—Hardly any American women are elegant, Parisian designer Pierre Balmier bewailed today.
Most of the ones that are, are in Paris, Balmain said. And he starts that list off with Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt and the Duchess of Windsor.
Balmain, who has spent two months criss-crossing the United States lecturing to college students and $ ^{*} $
lecturing to college students and adapting some of his Paris designs for an American woman's average room full of American women is better and more fashionably dressed than any similar group in the world.
But to turn that beginning into real elegance—
It's like the de-Nazification of Germany," Balmain said "— Very difficult."
The trouble with the American woman, Balmain said, is that she
A room full of average middle-class Frenchwomen wouldn't display as fashionable dresses, Balmain said. "But each woman would stand out as an individual." That's elegance.

goes right along with whatever "they" tell her is the thing. And the fashion magazines that do the telling usually pick styles that are spare and "hard" and unflattering to her.
Style changes can't be completely ignored, he said. No woman could look elegant today in a skirt hemmed around her knees. But neither should she wear a full skirt if she looks more herself in a slim one or a blue dress if she looks better in red.
