Page Four THE TWIG May 7, 1948 Spring Fad Upsets Meredith Routine By BEVERLY BATCHELOR Burned noses, peeling skin, and lobster-red appendages have invaded the campus! Meredith is turning out a crop of girls in variegated colors. Faculty mem bers are bemoaning the steadily increasing number of failing stu dents, forgotten conferences, and cut classes. Neglected boy friends are disgustedly shouting, “O. K., if that means more to you. . .” Miss Barnette is pessi mistically stocking up an abund ant supply of Ungentine. Why all the commotion? Yes—you guessed it—sun-kissed maidens are the campus rage once more, and when Meredith determines to get those luscious, golden- brown complexions on her cam pus, she does, regardless of con sequences. But how far can a college go? Bare legs, suspi ciously protruding from behind the pillars of Johnson Hall, have been sighted; now reservations have to be made for places on a third-floor porch; questions such as “Like to take in a movie? How about a date? Want to translate some French? Aren’t you going to class?”—all are be ing answered in the positive neg ative, and why? Because Sally and Jane and Betty and numer ous others have just gotta take a sunbath. Hour upon hour of patient sunning! Minutes wasted scrubbing away iodined baby oil! Days spent with agonizing burns! Is it worth it? Just ask that favored minority who have braved the ordeal and success fully emerged with skins of golden brown. Now their cry is “Down with the lily-white an gels!” Don’t be surprised to hear any day that this new require ment has been added to our cur riculum; “To graduate, a Mere dith student must have four sem esters of suntan.” Who knows? Some day this fad may replace Phys. Ed! 1948 Court Sun Shines First Time in Four Years Dap^ne^Bordp^aux Maid of Honor Becky Ballentine.
