THE JAYHAWKER Girls ' wrice-ups by Annette Re: ' d HELEN HEARD likes the man with a mind of his own and plenty of personality. Prefers blonds not over six feet tall and someone who knows the meaning of rhythm. A car is not essential, but it helps. With her as with almost all girls, the big question is: Can he show me a good time? JEANNE WILKINS prefers the man who is a lot of fun and a sporty dresser. If he gets around that helps and must be a good dancer. To be serious at times is permis- sable, but not often. Jeanne says average mentality will do, for, I want to be able to keep up with him. DICK AMERINE doesn ' t like drinkers but will not condemn the smoker. Prefers an intelligent girl who can talk athletics. Doesn ' t demand the home-type or a good cook. Dislikes the girl who wants a fashion plate and intensely the Josephine Colleges and sophisticates. Likes cute trim figures and the sincere, one-man girl. Boys ' write-ups by Maurice Jackson HUGH T. JONES prefers the sweet, refined girl who doesn ' t require a gala party to admit a good time. Indifferent to blonde or brunette, but appreciates natural beauty and smart tailoring (sans bulges). Make- up and tobacco should be at minimum to rate her with. Likes her tenacious but unpredictable, which spells umph.

N V Js M B F R 1 9.3 8 J Afasuie EVERY COLLEGE man can ' t have an Esquire wardrobe, but every college man can with a little heady purchasing and managing be able to dress properly for every oc- casion. Having too few clothes is not economical because that favorite suit is never pressed when you need it. A balanced wardrobe will spread the wear on your clothes over a longer period and give you a better return from your investment and pleasure with proper clothes for the occasion. For the college man ' s own information here are a few tips. For informal wear it may be traditional for a college man to be comfortable, but it isn ' t traditional for him to be sloppy. Choose fab- rics that will take a beating at the Nebraska game, yet stay smooth, hold some crease and give plenty of wear. Choose bright patterns, but not racetrack plaids or prison stripes. Mixing up the coat and trousers of harmonizing suits is still in vogue and quite utilitarian. Ober ' s are showing suits in covert cloth, lovat Shetland, and window- pane checks that are popular selections. Shirts will offer the round-cornered Radnor collars in stripes and solid shades; shoes will be the ever popular brown plain- tip blucher, two tone and plain rubber soled, reverse calf buckskin. Camel ' s hair sweaters in shades of green and odd Shetland campus jackets looked good in Rothschild ' s window. For dress-up occasions such as that quick trip to the City, proms, and maybe dinner with her folks ( Continued on page 9 ) PLEASE EXCUSE US FOR CROWING Oar busines is good again this seascn.

NOVEMBER 1938 In A Manner Manly (Continued from page 7) deserve some attention. Choose a dark color suit in blue, oxford grey, or brown in chalk stripe or multi- colored stripes. Ray Beer ' s has some nifties in several lines. The white separate starched collar in the Kent style with a conservative tie will mark you as a man with definite taste. It is no foolish bet that double breasted chalk stripe and three button herringbone models are going to be seen at the smart gathering places this season. About midway between campus and sports clothes comes the holiday or leisure outfit. It should be of a soft fabric and loose-fitting for driving and slouching in easy chairs and general comfort. Rough tweed, homespun, and cheviot that are absolutely correct without a sharp crease are right at home in this class. Fancy backs are taboo save for bi-swing bellows for free arm movement. If the Indian summer pre- vails, gaberdines and flannels fit in, especially for town and country. Appropriate shirts would be the oxford cloth with a button-down collar, in white, blue, tan, grey, or green; striped or knit tie to match; country brogue with those policeman soles; slouch hat in deep brown color as shown at Ray Beer ' s a briar and a friend complete the leisure ensemble. For formal occasion it is essential to be dressed pro- perly. Tails are fast gaining in popularity with every function. The new color in formal wear, as shown at Ober ' s, is midnight blue that looks blacker than black under those Union ballroom lights. A double- breasted tuxedo coat and vest can interchange with your tail coat when the occasion is not so formal. Tail coats are long and flowing, extending about one and one-half inches below the knee. For tails the shirt is of plain or birds-eye pique with two studs, Serano white tie, moonstone or pearl studs with plain or fine gold edging. With tuxedo the Shoreham type shirt with collar-attached is increasing in popularity. The black tie, bat shape preferable, is the most popluar with the young generation. Rothschild ' s Chesterfield coats with self collar, silk muffler, top- ( Continued on page 79) Styled by DON RICHARDS of Hollywood we present this unusual three button drape lounge in an extensive variety of Coverts and rough Shetlands.
