PHOTO CONTEST
Night and Day at TSCjOFFERS VARIED
MAJOR AWAROS
By'JERRY STUfJBLEFIELD
J-TAC Society Editor
Did you ever notice the .assort-
ment of earrings that some of the
girls have ? Sylvia Ford, a cute
brunette from McGregor, has over
100 pair. Her collection - ranges
from small ones find dangle ones to
large, round ones!
Mary Lou Drummond had a
guest from her home town recent-
ly: Her visitor was Hal Sandefur,
all-state back from Paducah. Her
roommate, Dottie La Roe of Kauf-
man, had a visitor too, and it was
none other than a good old Tarle-
ton ex, H'arv McCulIough!
Besides Sandra Hull, Mary Mc-
Laughlin -frtfm Electra has the
longest hair on the campus. Mary's
fiance, Buddy Fair from A&M, vis-
ited her recently, too.
Peggy Goodloe has a most exotic
necklace. It is made of pearls, and
the pearls are at the ends of a
gold tube on a chain. Peggy cer>
tainly has some attractive clothes,
and she really looks nice in red
and white. The other day she was
wearing a white sweater and red
skirt, and both colors clicked ex-
actly with her dark-complexion.
One of the most enthusiastic
dancers at the weekly Monday-
iiight. <}ances is Cesar Soberon. He
is certainly an expert dancer, and
when the > Latin American records
spin everyone clears the floor for
Cesar and his partner! 1
"Tjveety" is letting' her hair I
grow out now, and it looks very j
becoming. Those short hairdos
don't keep the ears very warm, do
they, Tweety?
As these cold, wintry days drag
on more and more TSC students
are wearing sweaters. And this in-
cludes boys and girls too. Pat Cau-
dle has a new blue pullover and
Betty. .Woods, is sp'gVfcihg' a' pretty
'•'pink tejeweled .sweater. Turtle-
necki sweaters are popular again
this winter reason, and both boys
and girls are wearing them, too.
'Freda. Reed has a flashy red one,
and lots of boys are wearing ttirlte-
"ueck sweaters of cotton jersey in
colors of pink and navy. Which
brings to mind—in a recent mag-
azine it stated that women will
wear more blue this spring. Most
dresses illustrated were navy blue
so this tends to show that as men
begin wearing the girls' color—
pink—women will begin wearing
the ' color most men prefer—navy
blue. It is a mystery, though—why
women always cater to suits,
blouses, etc., that are made to re-
semble men's shirts, and lapels
and suit coats to ■ fit like men's
suits, and men never cater to wom-
en's laces and frills. Yep, women
are more than equal in this respect.
A recent poll at the girls' dorm
revealed that Frank Sinatra did
an outstanding job of acting in the
musical, "Young at Heart." As a
general rule'most females prefer
he-men such as Jeff Chandler, Burt
Lancaster, Rock Hudson and
Charlton. Heston, but after "Young
at Heart" lots of opinions were
changed! The room-to-room chant
now,is, "Did you see Frank Si-
natra in that wonderful movie?"
and, "Doesn't Frankie have the
most beautiful blue eyes?" Frank-
ie may be a runt, but he hag what
it takes, plus a wonderful voice,
too!

Studying hard for finals? Don't
cram too much. You'll' make a ner-
vous wreck of yourself. Take time
out to relax in a good movie.
There's no better way to forget
your troubles than to sit through a
couple of hours of Dean Max-tin
and Jerry Lewis. ■
You'll have a chance all weekend
to see them in "Three Ring Circus"
at the Majestic. They're just as
funny as ever and the excitement
really starts when Jerry gets him-
self involved' with a cage full of
1'ions. See them Thursday, Friday,
or Saturday!
Tonight you can see Victor Ma-
ture as "The Egyptian" along with
Jean Simmons in this unforgetable
love story of the days of the Sun
God worshippers. If you have read
the.book, you know that the story
is written somewhat along the
f¥merstudent

with quartet

Biblical line, with Christian perse-
cution as its theme. "The Egyp-
tian" will show through tomorrow.
What did you think of ToWy
Curtis turning-crooner and dancer
in his role in "So This Is Paris'-?
He's usually managed to get by on
lots of good looks and a littl'e act-
ing ability but he showed a little
more talent in this show with
Gloria Dellaven and Corihne Cal-
vet. "So This Is Paris" was the'
story of three sailors yn leave,
three girls in love, and five little
orphans in trouble. The movie in-
troduced nine great song hits and
is rated as a pretty good musical.
And speaking of-music, "Sincere-
ly" by the McGuire Sisters is al-
ready the very favorite of all
around here. "Make Yourself Com-
fortable" by Sarah- Vaughn, and
"That's All I Want From You"
tie for second. "Hearts of Stone,"'
"Mister Sandman," and "Earth
Angel" rate third. "Let Me - Go
Lover," by Joan Weber has drop-
ped by first but is stil a favorite.
