Show "No Slacks," Rule Southerners In Scribe Opinion Poll Ma Scribe reporters this week he-hashed he-hashed the old, old problem of whether or not girls should wear slacks to school, and obtained a negative answer from the students stu-dents in a cross sectional poll. The question as put to the students, stu-dents, both boys and girls, ran "Should girls be allowed to wear slacks to school, now that they are in wartime circumstances and are faced with the problem of a clothes ration?" Tabulations were as follows: In favor of wearing slacks, 34 per cent. Against wearing slacks, 64 per cent. Undecided, 2 per cent. With only two per cent undecided, unde-cided, South students voiced decided de-cided views, pro and con. Said one girl: "Slacks are comfortable comfort-able and the girls can consequently consequent-ly work better in them. They're also patriotic, since they're durable dur-able and save on other clothes." Boys voted almost solidly against the movement, with more than 80 per cent of the "nays" registered by the male sex. The boys emphatically declared that "although the war has moved in on the school, we still like our women feminine!" "To be or not to be" ... hmmmmm . .. . South stoogents obtained the same old answer in Scribe this week. |
