Defying the cold, rainy weekend which the weatherman handed them, Campus socialites turned out full force for a round of spring parties, dinner-dances, hikes, picnics, and "just dates". Unexpected rains changed Saturday golf parties and picnics to

For the early swimmer with conservative ideas, this old-fashioned swim suit in bright red will prove "just the thing."
Who Originates Fashions?
Everyone absorbed in women's fashions will be interested in their sources and of the reasons why women yearn for a Schaparelli or a Hattie Carnegie original.
Hattie Carnegie, both creates her own designs and imports Parisian models. She prefers richness, as if money were no object. She has two dominant moods—the patrician and the sophisticated.
Charles Creed, the descendant of a family that served the French until the revolution, when they migrated to London, has absorbed
Different designers use different sources in gaining their variety and originality.
Madame Gabrielle Chanel is the rebel who started the post-war movement toward simplicity. She identified herself with the bright young people who smashed all traditions. She practically invented the modern sports mode. Her fashions are youth personified, generally brash, impudent you. Witness her gypsy evening frocks, perfect for the gamin. But she has softer moods, too, that are delightful for the co-quette.
New Togs Make Bow On Campus
Personally, we like glamour and GLORIA BIECHELEASE it in her silk jersey dinner dress which has red and white candy stripes, a full skirt and set-in pockets. It has a hood a bracelet length sleeves—both new spring details.
The rustle of spring—or of bright new taffeta—can be heard now as everybody wants to know what's what in the collegiate spring ward-robe.
JEAN BROCK prefers a dress and coat combination of powder blue wool. The dress has a matching turban and the pockets on the box coat are huge!
JANE BLANEY goes rustic in blue denim. Her slack suit has a cute sailor collar and buttons on it. She also plays in a pair of shorts with a dirndl effect made of green and white dotted cotton material.
New formales are full skirted and jersey is the material that you want! HELEN HEARD'S is of aqua silk jersey. A laxste gathered waistband gives it a sculptured look. PHYLLIS GOSSETT is wearing a new Fink jersey formal made along Grecian lines.
BETTY WYATT wears a two piece suit of green English tweed. With it, she wears a white silk blouse.
DOLLY NEWLON looks sweet in her white net formal with a full skirt and huge butterfly bow in back.
Our idea of the perfect date outfit is one worn by BETTY MUCHNIC. It is a navy sheer woolen bolero dress. She wears a white blouse with it and red accessories to match the red binding around the bolero. Her hat is a red off-the-face straw. Shoes are navy, with red bows on the heels and red platform soles.
Sisters MARGARET and MARY K. BROWN have new slack suits that are two of the best-looking ones we've seen. Margaret wears navy garabardine with white trim and a white nautical cap! Mary K. prefers pastel colors with a shirt with contrasting collar and lapels.
Hats are mostly feminine, with flowers and veils. Flemish straws are popular—and snoods are worn with play clothes. The Navy tailored coat with white trim is popular for those who desire a tailored look.
Blouses are the new note for the campus. "Sloppy Joe" cardigans are being replaced by organdy and pique blouses. For evening, flowers are worn preferably in the hair—or on the wrist or purse.
Madame Jeanne Lavin is of the older French school; devoted to lavish elegance, a champion of feminity.
good deal of British, conservative, tradition which combine with his French flair, results in extra-ordinarily beautiful suits that are the specialty of his firm. Creed suits are made to order, so to speak, for the patrician type.
Germaine Monteel is also from France. Her designs are less revolutionary than Schaparelli's but defiantly dramatic.
Pharmacists Dine-Dance; Kappa's Swing It
Kappa Kappa Gamma brought a touch of Florida to the Memorial Union ballroom last night, holding its annual spring formal in a colorful reproduction of a Palm Beach resort. Whitesail boats on a blue ocean, a stretch of sandy beach, and palm trees provided the background. Couples who couldn't keep up the speedy pace set by Clyde Smith and his band lolled under the big beach umbrellas lifting the dance floor. Caricatures of the sorority members decorated walls and called forth considerable jesting and merriment from party-goers. Jack O'Hara, c'42,
This youthful black coat with covered buttons and a slightly flared skirt, is up to the minute with big pockets forming a bow in front.

Brass pestles and mortars, symbols of the pharmacists, were the favors given at the Kappa Psi, professional pharmacy fraternity, spring dinner dance in the Kansas room last night. Cadet gray and searlet were the colors-for the decorations, and music was provided by the nickelodeon.
The guests were: Treva Canary, ed'43; Sybille Overholser, c'41; Sue Stotts, c'40; Mary Ina Browning, c'42; Patricia Riggs, c'2; Margaret Ogden, c'41; Dorothy Jane Adair, ph'40; Virginia Kasper, ph'40; Jeanne Knight, c'41; Mary Alice Dietrich, fa'42; Erma Lee Wallace, ph'42; Alberta Miller; Janet Walburn; Mae Schimmel; Dorothea Davidson; Lucile Lynn; Jane Strickley, Topeka; Ala Dell Meinke, Loring; Mary Campbell, Topeka, and Mrs. A.
