in Carnival Attire
Flapper dresses will be the rage
at the OMD Carnival. The now
popular chemise or sack dress/
may easily be substituted; so Lan¬
cer coeds will have no trouble
keeping right in the swing of the
carnival theme — “Roaring 20’s.’’
Fellows will have the^ proper
dress for the carnival hanging
right in their closets also. Ivy
league is not really the invention
of today’s hep fads. It is, instead,
a .copy of the styles of the twen¬
ties.
OMD invites everyone to come
clad in costumes of the spirited
twenties. To set them off, the
honor group is selling derbies for
50 cents each.
the swing of OMD week. Omi-

two rides, and a variety of con¬
cessions will be featured.
Main events of the carnival will*
be the announcement and corona¬
tion of. the queen and the disclo¬
