SWEATER GALS----
(continued from page six)
jection to women wearing sweaters in war plants:
Flash—Women in The War Plant
Claim Right to Wear Sweaters!
Flash—Bosses Say Molly Pitcher
Didn't Wear a sweater!
Flash—So What!
Take Cleopatra -ah, what an idea—could she have charmed Antony in a wind breaker with holes in the elbows?
Helen of Troy launched a thousand ships with her face. Would Henry Kaiser make her wear a veil?
Ah, no my friends . . . There are some things we don't talk about. Take the case of Miss A—single, 26, blonde, a welder making $382 a week. Would you have her come to work in her mother's cardigan jacket?
So what happens if Miss A complies with our dictum? The men start looking out the window. Miss A changes her tooth paste, switches to another soap and still she feels that something is wrong that even piano lessons won't help.
If she can afford an angora snuggle-smoothie, she deserves one. Shall we say to her "Looka here. Miss A—If that's your nom de plume—from now on and hitherto when you get here in the morning saw yourself into a burlap toga. Elst how can we ever hope to win an “A” for awful pennant?”
Thought for the day: Girls will be girls.
US Hurls Back Thrusts In Tunisia
By International News Service
American troops withdrew from the mountains of Tunisia today after hurling back two enemy thrusts against two key passes with heavy losses for the Germans.
As the Americans stabilized their new, shorter, and more easily defendable line, the British Eighth army captured the strategic island of Dgerba, in the Gulf of Gabes and thus poised a dagger at the left flank of the Axis armies behind the Mareth line.
Farther to the south, heavy British artillery pounded Nazi Field Marshal Erwin Rommel's positions along a 25-mile line. British General Sir Harold Alexander, commander of Allied forces in the Middle East and recently appointed deputy commander-in-chief of Allied forces in North Africa, arrived on the scene to take over personal command.
OFFICIAL BULLETIN
Meanwhile Russian forces swept westward toward the Dnieper river along the whole southern front. A special Soviet communique tonight announced the capture of Krasno-grad, 60 miles southwest of Kharkov. Krasnograd is an important railway junction lying astride the Kharkov-Crimean railroad.

Antique Pattern ★★★ China Display
Two rare patterns of Worcester porcelain, the Imari and Fan, are now on display in the southwest room on the first floor of Spooner-Thayer museum. They are dated about 1760.
The Imari and Fan patterns were made during the Wall period, so named in honor of Dr. John Wall who painted the designs on the porcelain. The period lasted from 1751 to 1783, and the porcelain made during that time is known as "Old Worcester par excellence."
Neatness and simplicity of form and finish distinguishe Worcester from other English porcelains. The body is clean, close grained, and well vitrified. The soft, glossy glaze is smooth and even, and the color varies from creamy white to bluish white. Worcester porcelain is characteristically blue and white and printed.
The Worcester porcelain in Spooner-Thayer museum is part of the collection of porcelain and glass given to the University by Mr. and Mrs. Frank P. Burnap of Kansas City, Mo.
