Sweatshirts - Students' Security Blankets?
By Jackie Helfstrom (Assistant Managing Editor)
(Assistant Managing
What is a sweatshirt? It is
warmth; it is comfort; it is relaxa-
tion.
It is the college student's Linus blanket.
The sweatshirt is the natural attire of the American college student, and most of them would find it hard to dress properly without one. Every student has one, most have several.
There is the traditional dark blue for everyday all over grungy wear and there are sweatshirts for special occasions.
OCCASIONS
FOR WINTER there are long sleeved sweatshirts; for summer short sleeved sweatshirts.
For sandbar parties and woodsies there are dark colored sweatshirts that won't get dirty easily. For afternoon or for study breaks or even for those long evenings of study there are lighter colored, less heavy duty sweatshirts.
It is not even inconceivable that the well dressed co-ed would have a sweatshirt died-to-match every pair of slacks she owns, including her cut-off jeans.
And during final week, it is rare if you see anyone in anything but a sweatshirt.
MANY ORGANIZATIONS have their own sweatshirts which they
Race Car Damaged
COVENTRY, England — UPI) — A gust of wind has put a $28,000 dent in Britain's super-jet race car, the Rover-B.R.M.
The revolutionary 160-mile-an-hour car was not even being driven when the accident happened. It was on a trailer in France being brought home after tests at Le Mans when wind blew the car and trailer into a tree. It was only when the car was back here that mechanics found that the entire body must be rebuilt.

When someone pledges a social sorority or fraternity, his first gift from his new sisters or brothers is a sweatshirt with the Greek letters.

The first thing a freshman on any campus does is run right down to wherever the university sweatshirts are sold and buy one or two.
Or, if a student lives in one of the residence halls while they are in school, on the day they move in they are greeted at the door by a display of the hall sweatshirts that are on sale.

Even to non-conformists the sweatshirt is important. They do not refuse to conform by not wearing sweatshirts at all, they simply have their own custom made with the appropriate comments and pictures drawn on the front, to express their feelings toward society.
And what happens if anyone ever gets tired of a sweatshirt? He doesn't simply throw it away and wear something else. He varies it somehow. He either cuts off the sleeves, cuts out the neck, or simply turns it inside and lets the fuzz get all over everybody else for a change.
