Gamma Phi, Battenfeld, Corbin, To Party Tonight
On the port side is a black cloth coat with a collar of what we may optimistically call silver fox. On the starboard a Sunday-Go-To-Meeting dress with three-quarter length sleeves and shirred pockets over the hipline.
Two fall parties and an open house, all scheduled for tonight, will make the evening before the exodus to Manhattan a full one.
Gamma Phi Beta will hold open house in the Memorial Union ballroom from 9 to 12 pm. with Clayton Harbur's orchestra playing for dancing.
Both Corbin and Battenfeld Halls will emphasize the fall theme. Corbin's party will have a Halloween motif, and Battenfield boys and their dates will dance in an Indian summer atmosphere.

Come One, Come All---
Slaps and Back Stabs For the Young in Heart
The evolution of the American College Girl—and mind you spell it with capital letters—is a thing of beauty and a joy forever
She is the self-made woman who has pulled herself up the academic ladder by her slip straps and now stands alone, but not silent, on a peak in Dorian. $ \textcircled{4} $
She's the emancipated cutie, who thinks she can go anyplace, do anything, say what she pleases, and that God in his merciful goodness, will forgive her her trespasses because she is a college woman.
Her hair may look like the business end of a mop, she may have a third degree case of gapsosis or housemaid's knees, but she still has that exquisite sense of complacency found only in small children and camels. A Class by Herself
As a pseudo-culture cat of humble beginnings she is in a class by herself. She has read the first and last pages of everything from "Elis Dinsmore" to "The Rover Boys At Play." And her nodding acquaintance with music and art is heartending.
She can spot "Whistler's Mother" at ten paces and pricks up her ears like a faithful old bird dog at the strains of "Country Gardens" or Ravel's "Bolero," a composition which embarassed Maurice to the extent that he finally died of it.
In contrast to these odious qualities, however and generally speaking, let it be said for the little lady that she always leaves them laughing.
She's impossible to insult, impossible to get rid of, and at times, just plain impossible.
Just "Call Me"
Her philosophy of life is, "Call me wantom, call me foolish, call me names that shame a girl, but for heaven's sake, call me!"
And as for college men, when your grandfather was the best poker player south of the Rio Grande, and I still had my teeth, college men were already the lowest, caddiest, pipe-smokingest bunch of coffin varnish-guzzlers yet produced.
And yet it's all sort of fun in a hedonistic sort of way, isn't it, my dears?
