Holding its' first open house in a couple of years, Jones Hall was really sparkling. Of course we know you girls keep your rooms the same way every day, don’t you? The beautiful drapes, artistically arranged rooms, lovely chair covers and bed spreads added to the beauty of the rooms. Congratulations to all the mem bers of Jones Hall for such a success ful open house. Keep it up and you ^^ill soon have Jones Hall the most beautiful buildings on the campus. Pfeiffer Hall Campus Pride Beautiful Pfeiffer Hall is even more beautiful since its’ most re cent addition -- a ‘new’ parlor. Beautiful yellow drapes against a light green wall, rearrangement of furniture with the piano now facing the door all add to its' beauty. The Pfeiffer Hall girls express their sincere appreciation to all per sons concerned and promise that they will always keep it this way. Bennett Hit Parade 1. "My Desire”—B. S.

It seems as If it were only yester day I started reminding you of the latest hits in the field of swing and sweetness, but quite a period of time has been covered. Honestly, dears, “I’m in a Low Down Mood” ’cause it’s time to say "So Long” for awhile —Can you blame me? Well, so much for that. Here are a few of the newest hits. "That’s My Desire” is tops on B. C.’s hit pa rade. Quite a few recordings of It have been made, but Frankie Lane, The Hadda Brooks Trio and Johnny Moore and the Three Blazers do more justice to it than anyone. Savannah Churchill’s “I Want to Be Loved” is still rated as tops. It’s a great number, but when the other side, “Foolishly Yours”, plays every body swoons. If you haven’t heard It, better hurry and do so. It's a real great! Let’s change our mood and let Lester Young beat out with his lat est Be Bop which is “Sax A Be Bop.” FINE! If you feel like jumping, just play “Margie” and be sure it’s by Jimmie Lunceford. That arrange ment is super. King Cole has done it again! This time — “Meet Me at No Special Place.” Cute little number, and nice words too. Going back to sentimental bal lads — “Guilty” by Ella Fitzgerald, "Mademoiselle” by the Modernaires, and “I’ll Close My Eyes” by Dinah Shore are a MUST for your record collection. Of course, our favorite is Buddy Johnson’s "Since I Fell for you” — nice, sweet, and lovely to listen to when HB’s around. One last reminder — be sure to hear Johnny Moore’s latest, “Tell Me You’ll Wait for Me” — Need I say more? Well, gang, the time has come— 'Till We Meet Again” — good luck to each an deveryone of you especial ly you. DOLORES HAYES, ’48. Aliss Bennett A4eets Dame Faskion Again this question comes into view: “Just what does this year hold for the fashion-hungry women of America? Long skirts! Full or nar row skirts!! Belts!! Colors!! Bow ties!! Hats - - feathers, net, flowers, or just what-have-you?” All these seem to be In the scheme of things tor the woman of the day. There are so many desirable things in the offering that it has created a problem — in the sense of what will mi’Lady buy — —Here are some clothes suggestions for your modern life — at the same time they are budget headliners to wear at home, at theater, at the party, or ... ! ... A trim-fitting top in bro'wn- striped jersey covering a stunning strapless short dinner dress . . . two dresses for the same price! Perhaps ... a simple wool jersey dress with notched boat neck, short sleeves, and a skin belt with crown motif!!!! Or would you rather have ... A suit! . . . with a tiny collar and tie. a colorful weskit. and the new long er jacket. . . . Another suit sugges tion .... A bolero with a high waist band or a very ‘loud’ colored suit with contrasting striped gilet!!! Pleats are just the thing . . . con trast an accordion pleated skirt with a slope-shouldered jerkin and a big sleeve blouse. Modern or what . . . A Victorian date dress . . . taffeta seems to be the more stunning ... a low cut neckline and a shirred bodice effect . . . and a tucked belt ending in a bustle! A good suggestion for all times— if at any time you have an old suit that’s still ‘good’ (wearable) make it over with new accessories, or a new cut!! ROSEMO'ND HOGANS. ’47.

Poef s Corner I felt the silent breath of spring I touched a drifting sparrow's wing, But you were not there. I knelt by the side of a laughing brook I slowly moved on to my quiet nook. But you were not there. Later on the world grew stiller Yet my heart would not grow calmer For you were not there. I walked in the cool of the green forest And wept tor your tender caress. But you were not there. My heart, filled with its sorrow Looked tor the dawn of a new to morrow. Though you were not there. I slowly moved on to seek solace And I found you in the dim-lit place. Yes, you were there. I touched your pale lifeless lips I clasped the cold fingertips. Yes. you were there. My silent prayer as night drew nigh S'l IJDEN'I’ OF 1HE MON TH (Continued From Page Three) the Bennett family still remembers such memorable plays as “Heart less.” “Twelve Lovers.” "Home For Good.” and “Mrs. Hungerford.” Then came her junior year and the role that brought her greatest triumph— the heartless, scheming “Regina.” in Lillian Heilman’s “Little Foxes.” Although she realizes that it will take a long time to become a good actress.

Moonlight, starlight, but where are you? I patiently wait for your ring. Where are you, darling, is it true That I’ll be waiting In vain?
