The dean of freshman at the University of Illinois recently made a remark which either proved that he was blind or just trying to be facetious. "The stage type' of college man, and woman, rarely exists in our colleges to-day, and if it does i should not." By the stage type' he meant th> young collegian as seen in cinematic college comedies, blazers, slickers, class-colour ties, class hats, and all the usual paraphernalia which goes toward making the college student an unmistakable type. Perhaps he was right in saying that the stage type should for exist, for there fs no particular reason, save the exaggerations of youth, why young ladies and gentlemen should stroll about in clothes gaudier than circus costumes. But class sweaters, int tilled slickers and blazers, ' and peculiar and significant headgear, always have and always will. be popular as long as there are enough!
