Problem: Students
Must See 3 Shows

Playhouse, West Georgians will
have the difficult task of try
ing to attend all three of the
theaters in Carrollton every
day. One student, however,
has it all solved .... classes

who want to attend the mat
inee showings. After all, the
cinema does provide a liberal
education.

Michigan State Prefer
Co-eds Sans Boots,
Head Scarfs nAd Such
EAST LANSING, MICH.—(ACP)
—Fashion experts may recommend
high rubber boots, knee-length
stockings and head-scarfs for the
well-dressed co-ed, but Michigan
State college’s male population ob
serves such dress with a chilly
eye.
In inquiring-reporter interviews
with “stags” on the campus, the
Michigan college tri
weekly, discovß'ed that men like
“less boot.”
Some typical comments:
“Long socks, especially blue and
green ones, look like infant’s wear.
Besides, they’re too coarse ...”
“Most women look clumsy in
high boots or babushkas and no
stockings.”
Other male complaints centered
on snoods or bandannas in class —
“they make the girls look like
gypsies”—nail polish half off, bare
legs, girls in front rows of class
rooms with dresses too short, tall
girls who wear high-heeled shoes
and short girls who wear low
heeled shoes, and the new boxing
glove mittens.
