The I^fogram was as follows: Scarlatti.—Sonata in E Flat Major Scarlatti— Sonata in D Minor Haydn Sonata in E Minor Presto Adagio Motto Vivace Hubert Impromptu in B Flat Major, Op. 142 °*'ahms Intermezzo, Op. 116, No. 4 ®’'ahms....Capriccio, Op. 116, No. 7 ^^■ahms- Intermezzo, Op 116, No. 6 Wei Sonatine Modere Mouvement de Menuet Anime I’ve been so busy looking over and discussing clothes for Mid winters ‘till it has been sorta’ hard to notice all the outstanding fash ions around campus. Here are a few outstanding outfits I couldn’t miss. Jane Edmonds wore a green bolero sweater with a tweed skirt and white blouse. That is a precious sweater, Jane. Sweaters are more novel this year. Bonnie Blue wins top honors for the best-looking coat. Have you seen her blue and black checked coat with those unusual sleeves? For the outdoor look see Surry. That lavender shirt and grey flan nel slacks make a becoming and comfortable outfit. Moppy Harrison and Jane Blake ly have been making a few fashion able items of wear. Have you seen the brunch jackets they made for their hope chests? Moppy’s is a pale yellow corduroy, and Jane’s is a light blue. Sis had on a pretty green and red plaid accordian pleated skirt. Accordian pleats are very stylish this winter. Flannel is back this year. It is outstanding in night dress. Bailey looked very snug the other night in her red flanel nightie writh white piping. Pete has a beautiful new dusty rose cashmere sweater. Ginny Love and Mary Lou still takes top hon ors with their numerous and lovely sweaters. Louise White was seen saunter ing about campus in a stunning blue corduroy coat. Also if you haven’t noticed her sporty new maroon sweater. It’s gruaranteed to total at least 46 pounds in weight. Mickey Butler looked adorable the other night in a deep green velveteen jumper and a long-sleev ed white blouse. Mickey knows vel vet is the thing this year—or is she just dressing especially for that man in her life?! (Continued From Page One) I dared to say, “We’re missing all this lovely music. Why don’t we dance?’’ “I came to the dance to look on. I’m afraid I’m not a good dancer at all,’’ he explained. “Of course you are,’’ I said as I extended my hand. “I’m warning you,’’ he said as we began to dance. “Why don’t be silly, you dance very well,’’ I assured him. “Oh, if he would only stop stepping on my toes,’’ I thought. “What does he think I am, a bag of flour? He slings me around like I’m a ton of bricks.’’ “He’s impossible,’’ I de cided. “What? Of course you aren’t stepping on my toes. You are simply imagining things,” I said. “You know Betty said ....” I was interrupted by the hard words of, “There are some things I would like for you to straighten me out on. Who is Betty? How did you know I was an A T 0? And who in birdseed are you? I might add as a P. S. that Fve never been to Auburn, and that I’ve been a student at Davidson for two years and a semester.” Stunned I managed to say, “Then you aren’t the boy—Oh no!” I hoped the floor would sudden ly give way because I wanted to just die! He must have sensed my embarrassment because he very graciously told me that he did not have a date and would be more than glad to take me under his wing. Not knowing the where abouts of either Betty or my date, I accepted. I was horrified by the fact that I didn’t remember his name. The situation was eased when a familiar looking fellow wandered over and asked me to dance. I couldn’t recall his name either but I was glad he remembered me.

He immediately asked me who I was dating. Since I had no idea who-my date was, I evaded his question by pretending I didn’t hear him. The music stopped and my brother, Buster, led me over to the second Davidsonian with which I had been privileged to dance. Bus ter assumed that he was my date and stood by waiting an introduc tion. Realizing that intermission had come, I followed the crowd out of the dance hall into the lobby. “Heaven only knows where they’re going,” I thought, “but I might as well go too.” I was startled as someone grabed my arm and exclaimed, “There you are! I’ve been looking all over for you. I’m—” “Never mind who you are,” I interrupted, gazing into a strang ers face, “As long as you are harm less, it’s okay by me.” As we walked down the steps another stranger appeared and said, “Someone from Auburn is looking for you.” “I’m sorry; I know no one from Auburn,” I replied cooly. I managed to swallow and say,” I would like for you to meet my brother—Oh look there’s—why yes it’s Sam Greene. Imagine that Excuse me please.”, I could feel the eyes of Buster follow me as I hurried off. What would he think! In my room I hurriedly hung up my wrinkled dress. My roommate stirred enough to mumble, “Did you have a good time?” “I’ll tell you all about it in the morning,” I replied sleepily. “I can’t wait to hear the other girls’ reports on the Davidson Mid winter dances,” I thought, as I closed my eyes for a peaceful night’s sleep. I couldn’t help won dering if the Auburn fellow was tall.

This Bureau offers its services not only to the seniors in the college but also to anyone who attended Queens in previous years. The Bureau takes calls from pros pective employers and find girls that will best fit the job. They com pile records and recommendations for girls hunting jobs and for em ployers. The Bureau arranges interviews between students and employers. More than one half the senior class is usually placed by the Bureau. Last year twenty-three percent of the class entered the teaching profession. The field of graduate and specialized study had the sec ond highest percentage. General of fice work was 80 per cent. Church work 8 per cent, social service 6 per cent, nursing 6 per cent and there were also other vocations en tered into by the class. Thirteen per cent of the graduates married during the summer.
