Each day we read something
new about fashions, fads and
fancies in women's dress and
habits. Just as we begin to
think we’re shockproof, how-
ever, a surprise lick comes
from a new direction. This
time it’s the announcement by
cosmeticians that “rice - pow-
der paleness” is “avant-
garde.” “Just brush powdered
high-lighter over you entireface
after your make-up is com-
plete,” the story reads. Togo
along with it, they suggest red-
red lipstick, pale eye shadow.
It took us back to our own
teen years, when proper young
girls weren't allowed to wear
visible make-up until they were
about sixteen. Before that, they
might be permitted to dust their
faces lightly with rice powder.
The very daring ones sneaked
a hint of Mother's rouge onto
cheeks and lips; more likely,
however, a vigorous pinching
of cheeks and biting of lips
brought color. Our genteel
grandmothers used rice pow-
der with no make-up whatso-
ever, and we remember examin-
ing this delicately scented fly-
away stuff when they weren't
looking. So fine and light it al-
most vanished from the puff
before being applied to the com-
plexion, it held a peculiar fas-
cination for adolescents.
Whether rice powder is ac-
tually a by-product of polished
rice, or like rice paper merely
carries the name, we don’t
know. But it suggest modesty,
understatement, even puritani-
cal ideas in ladies' cosmetics.
It seems to belong more to the
Jane Austen than the “mod"
tradition. This sudden reversal
of thinking as it becomes an
“avant-garde” finishing touch
to wild make-up is somehow
more than we can digest in one
sitting.

OSTRICHES DON’T
HIDE IN SAND
Contrary to the popular be-
lief that ostriches stick their
heads in the sand to hide from
danger, the big birds have a
much better way of protecting
themselves: They run.

Mike Evans, son of Mr. and
Mrs. Ray Evans, 707 North
Oak, a member of Texas Tech’s
third.year German class, will
play a part in the April 8 sym-
bolic drama Ein Schluck Erde
(One Swallow of Earth), select-
ed for presentation at the an-
nual convention of the Texas As-
sociation of German Students in
San Marcos.
Four performances were held
this week at Texas Tech, where
the play was presented entirely
in German, directed by Profes-
sor Theodore W. Alexander
and teaching assistant Hugo
Lentze.
Set in the year 2500 A.D.
when disaster presumably has
destroyed the land, leaving only
water for the survivors, the
play revolves around the sig-
nificance of a “piece of earth”
to those who no longer have it.
Characters wear colorful
costumes symbolic of their
social status, ranging from the
colorless dress of the perse-
cuted through the brilliant blue,
green, red, white and gold worn
by those of greater authority.
Young Evans will play the
part of a follower. He is a 1963
graduate of Kermit High School,
and is majoring in German,
with a minor in French.

Then add the asparagus and --

If you are using fresh as-
paragus, wash it thoroughly.
Then select a deep pan with a
tight cover. The bottom of a
double boiler with the top part
turned upside down as a cover
will work well. Pour about two
inches of water into the pan,
add one tablespoon salt, and
bring to boil.
Cut off any tough ends of the
asparagus. Then tie the as-
paragus in a bunch and stand
the bunch upright in the pan.
Put the lid on and boil 15 min-
utes or until tender. The steam
will cook the asparagus tips.
Asparagus is a nutritious
vegetable. It has more vitamin
A than green beans or brussels
sprouts, though not as much as
the leafy green vegetables.
Asparagus is one of the more
expensive vegetables on the
market. It is used more to add
variety to meals than as a
staple diet food.

Plastics require special
cleaning treatment.
Plastics should never be
cleaned with a solvent. To re-
move dirt and grime, sponge
with warm water and mild de-
tergent, allow to soak for a few
minutes so the dirt will loosen,
then rub briskly. Rinse and wipe
with a damp cloth until nearly
dry. Wax to restore luster.
Nail polish and remover, shoe
polish, and ball point pen ink
will cause permanent damage
to plastics and should be re-
moved as quickly as possible
with a clean cloth.
To remove paint, wipe off
with a clean white cloth damp-
ened with turpentine or kero-
sene. Do not use paint remov-
er on plastics. Use care when
using turpentine, and pretest it
on a small inconspicuous area.

(The minipriced GS-400.)
If you read the papers, you know how great our now-
famous GS-400 is. (It’s the one in the background.)
And you also know you don’t get a GS-400 for peanuts.
It’s a great car. But it’s just a little rich for some people.
So we set to work and designed the GS-340. It has a
smaller engine (but the whole machine weighs less). Its
interior is clean and simple and tasteful. And it lias its
own ornamentation, paint job <seo the rally stripe and
hood scoops?), and. of course, all the GM satety features.
So now you have a car that costs less than the GS-100,
but one with its own special brand < if excitement.
How can you beat that kind of a combination?
