Tacky Party and Prom HighlightWeekendActivity

Those attending the vice-ver of the Bachmann-Pope Band. They must bring a tin can with them, since the Student Union activities are planning to collect a number of cans for the tin drive.
Those attending the vice-versa dance will dance to the music
The presence of a well-known band such as Jack Teagarden will draw many to the Junior prom. One of the few formal parties left for this year, it is a climax of the spring season.
By tomorrow it is hoped that the ground will dry out from the April showers last night and early this morning. Many picnics have been planned, the largest perhaps being the overnight trip by equitation classes.

Unlike the other United States services, the Coast Guard sends its prospective women officers to its traditionally male officer training precincts.

Club Formed To Get Men By Washington Girls
Washington, (INS)—Men wanted. All kinds. Apply in person to the eight girls for every man club.
That's right fellows. Such a club has been formed by the government girls in Washington. It now boasts 250 members and is expected to have 750 by the end of the week.
The girls are appealing to commanding officers at Ft. Belvoir,
Slip Show?
No Metal Now
For Clothes
Indianapolis, Ind., (INS)—If a girl's slip shows in the future, she may just have to whack off with her scissors.
For the new rayon slips displayed today by the Indiana women's and children's apparel clubs are minus adjustable straps because it is no longer possible to obtain rust-proof buckles.
Laceless blouses and lightweight clothing without frills prevailed in the exhibit. The trend also was toward lighter blues and tans, to replace the browns and navy blues in summer dresses.
Another innovation—the salesmen no longer takes the customer out to dinner; the reverse is true because the dealer now finds it difficult to fill his stocks and is eager to discover a salesman who has anything at all to sell, according to exhibitors.
Metal trims and zippers also are wartime casualties and buttons are chiefly of wood and plastic glass.

Pretty Peggy Keshlear, president of the club, explained that by doing that the girls and the service men in the capital will have a chance to become better acquainted.
"Servicemen then will not have to gang up in Washington over the weekends, wondering what they are going to do for amusement," said Miss Keshlear.
"We came to Washington," she said, "not only because we wished to work for our country during the war, but because we had all been told that our nation's capital was filled with glamour and romance.
"What do we find? No men. And where will you find glamour and romance without men?"
The girls are limiting their choice to service men. Short men, tall men, hair-tonic ads and bald-headed guys, physical training instructors and 4-F's—they'll all do, according to Peggy.
"We're sick and tired of playing solitaire every night," she said. "We want men."
