This morning honor students of the University attracted both admiring and envious glances, the latter coming, for the most part, from those students whose afternoon mail yesterday was swelled with danger notices from the Dean's office. But with the weather man forecasting higher temperatures and sunny skies for the weekend, there seems but slight probability that Campus social life will suffer any from mid-semester reports.

The influx of visitors toomtion and the Kansas Relays will crowd Greek houses and add new zest to the weekend's activities slimaxed by the Hobnail Hop.

Clever Bags Are Mark of Spring
Bags are getting more attention from designers and manufacturers this spring than ever before. Red ones are carried by women of all ages to give accent to dark costumes. Putty colored bags of kid are being shown to match new straw hats and some of the most durable are of calf. Among the handsomest of these is a golden brown model of reversible calf which is shaped like a large pocket, with the flap draped through the oval ring handle of water buffalo hide, which is banded in gold.
Putty colored moire is used to make many of the choicest evening bags and other moires are of white, jade, blue, and geranium and other high colors. These have bijouterie clasps of gold which are studded with semi-precious stones the color of the bag.

An old tradition will be revived tomorrow night when the Alpha Tau Omega fraternity holds its "Roundup Party" in cowboy fashion at Lake View, five miles north-west of Lawrence.
The party was known years ago as an "ATO Barn Dance." and was an annual event of the fraternity for nearly 10 years. It was discontinued in 1932.

Linens Take Important Place In Advance Summer Showings
Lineens and linenlike mixtures are edging in on summer style exhibits and one stunning suit is of gray linen checked with a dusky pink which makes a stunning outfit. A hat of checked material is worn with this and pink gauntlet gloves. Another much acclaimed two-piece outfit shows a suit of plain linen in a mustard and beige check with gold buttons decorating the pockets and marching straight up the front. The jacket fits snugly with a military air in keeping with Fashion's ultimatum on that subject.
As to the summer silhouette—it is definitely a bloused one and pleated skirts with bloused tops are seen everywhere one finds fashionables gathered. One widely known
Paris designer glorifies the shirt-waist dress in all kinds of stunning models, showing for afternoon wear black sheers and beige lace with accordion pleated skirts, white linens, tub sill;s, tussahs, and surahs are also getting a big hand. One French fabric resembles "doupion toile," used for airplanes, in dull shades and soft falling textures.
Black satin of a soft,pleasing quality,not at all stiffish,is being chosen for street wear by women who feel that either summer or winter their wardrobe is not complete without one good looking black frock.
Dinner frocks are made of this and are a clever and practical thing to wear. Right now smart dressers
Shallow sailors are all to the good and something that clicks with feminine fancy decidedly this season are the sailors made of the same material as the frock. There are white sailors by the millions, too, of straw or fabric, with the linen ones often stitched in some contrasting shade.
Even the ticket sales of the forthcoming W.S.G.A. musical, "Sing 'n Swing," have taken on a metropolitan aspect, Jean Robertson, c'41, who is in charge of tickets, said today.
Tickets Selling Fast
Latest news from the East gives navy a three-to-one lead over black among smart daytime outfits that are being seen on the college campus. When it comes to suits, gray also is a strong color favorite, with signs of even greater popularity for fall.
Typical of the way in which the pasteboards are going is the very first sale. Yesterday morning when they went on sale, Glee Smith, c'41, took nine tickets (a whole row), Jean pointed out.
Tickets of the production, which opens next Tuesday for a three-day run in Fraser theater, are being taken, not twos and threes, Jean said, but by blocks of six and nine.
Authorized Parties
This has happened frequently enough that now Jean is worried but pleasantly so—about the intrusion of ticket scalpers, whose presence would definitely add the "New Yorker" touch.
