Kappa Sig Meet Here Tomorrow
Hair Styles Intrigue The Males
If co-eds want to use Leap Year to good advantage they should take stock of all their feminine wiles. A smart hair style can be good bait.
Hair stylists and hat designers have decided to co-operate this spring. The plan is to dress the hair to match the latest bonnets. Early indications are that spring hats will be small and will hug the shape of the head instead of sitting over one eyebrow as they did last spring.
Varied Coiffures
This means your hair will be dressed smoothly over the crown, with curled bangs, or high curls in front, and a soft neckline.
This skull cap coiffure will be sleek and hug the head with a circlet of baby curls from crown to neck. It will be easy to care for, adorable with the new half snoods and ideal for the skull or bonnets.
Bangs Revived
Because summer is approaching, you will find short loose curls at the nape of the neck or long hair twisted up in flat sleep rolls, fashionable.
Beguiling bangs peeping from out bonnets won our grandfathers' heartts years ago and the fact that bangs are being revived show that they are still attractive. Wind-blown bangs, bangs with waves, sculptured bangs, all will be good under the new hats.
Spring is in the air when you wear this blue and white checked wool coat, nipped in at the waist over a plain dark dress.
Spring—
(Continued from page one)
But it's sort of funny. Have been fearful all day lest someone "make a pass" at me, like Virginia said.
But no one has yet. Probably they just haven't got nerve to carry out their plans.
Tra-la, the flowers that bloom in the spring. If I could just think of something to rhyme with spring.
Dragged out some spring pants this morning—wanted to be in season. They smelled of moth balls for a while but that's sort of worm off now.
Guess I'd better write Mother today. Wonder if she'd get mad if I got a whiffle haircut again this March. Did that last March and she didn't care for it. Neither did the barber. Took him 50 minutes to cut my hair off short, and 15 more to make it stand up evenly. But it sure keeps the wind from blowing my hair around.
Heard this morning that there were nearly 2 million more hogs in the surrounding seven states than a year ago. The report said this was a 26 per cent increase. Gosh, hope Dad can buy me a car next year.
Say, bet that's why those women didn't bother me as Virginia said they planned. Nice of her to warn me anyway, but I can take care of myself.

Theta's Sigma Nu's and 'Y' in Leap Year Parties
By Virginia Gray, c'41 Kansan Society Editor
A district conclave will bring members of Kappa Sigma fraternity from nearby states to the campus Friday and Saturday for meetings and forums on fraternity matters.
Delegates from the chapters at Kansas State, Baker, Nebraska, Washburn and Missouri will meet with the local chapter at the chapter house. Fifty men are expected. Plan Forums
One of the planned features will be a forum of campus leadership which was prepared by Hamilton Baker of Boston, Mass.,
the fraternity's worthy grand master who has been a guest of the fraternity the past few days.
With Leap Year day coming only once every four years many co-eeds are planning to use it to the best advantage by giving hour dances to which they will invite "those men." Sigma Nu fraternity members are going to make the co-eeds' work easier by inviting them to an hour dance tonight in the Kansas room of the Memorial Union building. Dancing will begin at seven o'clock to music furnished by Clyde Bysom and his band.
Kappa Alpha Theta sorority's informal Leap Year party will be this evening at the chapter house. A buffet supper will be served at six o'clock after which there will be dancing to the music of Clyde Smith and his orchestra.
Mrs. P. H. Klinkenberg, Mrs. H.
S. Russell, Mrs. L. C. Harris, Mrs.

Phi Delt Mess Saturday Night
Oriental murals, Chinese lanterns and artificial cherry blossoms will set the stage for the annual Phi Delt Mess to be held Saturday night. This party, one of the most unusual of the year, is a custom so old that no one really knows how it started. Each year the chapter racks its brain for a new idea in parties. One year it was an orchid garden and each date was given a vase-containing an orchid.
A 1/2 pound boy was born yesterday morning to Mrs. Paul W. Miles, wife of Dr. Miles, assistant physician of the student health service. The baby has been named Paul Lawrence.
This year the celebration is again most unusual. Phi Delt actives and their dates will begin the jollities with an informal dance at the chapter house at two o'clock in the afternoon; then proceed to a formal dinner in the Union ballroom with dancing between courses to music furnished by Dale Brodie and his orchestra. Favors will be given to each of the women at the dinner which will be served to about 140 persons. The festivities will continue with a program dance which will last until midnight.
Son Born to Dr. and Mrs. Miles
Chaperons for the affair will be Mrs. J. H. Kreamer, Mrs. Charles D. Howe, Mrs. Jane Maclean, and Mrs. Ed. Charles.
