Janet Landers Christmas holidays, like the snow, have melted away all too fast into our memory and thoughts turn back to school. Making 8 a.m. classes is not easy after sleeping late over the holidays. Turning back to the books is something less than easy, especially in the spring. But clubs and organizations are setting up meetings and making plans for activities and projects for this semester OPA had its first meeting Monday night. An activity continued from the fall is selling candy to support the national project. There are two types of chocolate bars, almond and crunch, that may be purchased from any OPA member for 50 cents Auditions for the New Tradition Singers will begin today and continue through Wednesday, Jan. 24. They are held from 2-4 p.m. in Room 119 of G. Rollie White. Rehearsal will begin Monday, Jan. 22 at 7:30 p.m. in Room 119. Plans are being made for concerts and participation in other activities Al pha Lambda will have a meeting tonight at 7 p.m. in the Library conference room on the second floor According to Sue Edwards, vice-president of Krueger, there are several new faces around the dorm. “Some of the girls are transfer students while others are incoming freshmen who have been waiting to get into the new complex.” Residents of Krueger, new or old, will have several activities to look forward to this semester. Voting on the dorm constitution will be upcoming as well as Dorm Council meetings. The first Dorm Council meeting will be at 9 p.m. Wednesday, Jan. 22. Activities are in the planning stages now, but look for picnics, baseball games, and maybe even grass, on the grounds that is Sports clubs will be forming. Information on joining them will be forthcoming This spring has all the earmarks of a good one, especially for the class of ’73 because it will be the last. Elegant Fashion Returns In Menswear Collection The elegant international man with conservative tastes is back in vogue for 1973 if recent fa shion previews are an indication. British designer Hardy Amies previewed his International Mens wear Trend Collection for the Fall of 1973. There are no way-out presen tations in the new Amies line. Dust And Polish Indoor Foliage Keeping indoor foliage plants clean and attractive requires a little extra effort, says Everett Janne, landscape horticulturist for the Texas Agricultural Ex tension Service. “Leaves may be kept clean by using a soft camel hair brush or damp cloth or sponge once or twice a month to remove dirt which collects. Care must be used when cleaning as bruising and kinking the leaf surface will cause discoloration and blem ishes,” points out the A&M spe cialist. To get a high gloss on some plant foliage, gently brush the surface with a soft cheese cloth or a soft, fine brush. Natural oils and waxes on the leaf sur face will usually produce high gloss. If leaves are extremely soiled, wash them with a mild soap and warm water solution before polishing, suggests Janne. Allow them to air dry before polishing. “Several commercial leaf pol ishes are available. If such ma terials are used, water the plants several hours prior to treating. This prevents dry plants from absorbing the material so rapidly, causing foliage burn. Do not use oil of any kind,” cautions the horticulturist. Plants with pubescent or hairy leaves are more difficult to clean. Occasional syringing of such plants with clean, warm water is beneficial. Do not use water colder than room temperature as it can cause leaf spotting in cer tain plants. Occasional syringing will also help keep plants free from red spider mites and mealy bugs, adds Janne. His collection, aimed mainly at the upper crust of the mass volume market, is restrained and in step with the creations of other international men’s design ers. This means that next year’s fashionable male should expect to find that very dark and sombre colors are in; wide knit ties are in; wide and peaked lapels are in; waistcoats are in; pleats and wide cuffs are in. The look remains long, lean, and flattering. Suits and sports wear of charcoal browns and deep dark greens will give prom inence to brighter accessory colors and emphasize the importance of cut and styling. Jackets will remain long, close fitting, shaped at the waist, and slightly shaped at the shoulder with two-button fastening. Many will have center vents or no vents at all. Lapels will remain very wide, featuring different reverse and top collar treatments. The wide lapels are balanced by wide trousers. The trouser look is very im portant. Thfey’ll be pteated, "fit snugly over the hips and taper out to feature deep cuffs that are generally 25 inches wide and 2 inches deep. Legs will be longer, breaking slightly at the front of the shoe. Suits wll be complemented with 4 to 5-button waist coats, some of which will be sewn-off at the waist. The vests will generally show more shirt and more tie than their classic predecessors. Amies emphasizes that acces sories must complement the total look since balance is the basis for styling. Shirts will continue with the elongated collar points to balance the wide lapels. The collar spread will be slightly wider to accommodate wider ties. A most important accessory to the new look is the high-haeled shoe. Amies believes that a heel 2 to 2V2 inches high is most com fortable for walking and balanc ing the wide-cuffed trousers. As for casual clothes, Hardy Amies says his approach is un contrived and “very functional— pockets to put hands in, gloves in. Collars that button up, zip up, and stay up.

Karen Kreipke with the Texas Agricultural Extension Service, noted this week that edible con tainers such as ice cream cones, pie crusts and gelatin capsules may have encouraged food scien tists to look for more. Citing recent developments, she explained that “coatings which act as a release agent in the fry ing pan, such as Myvacet, have been used on fresh poultry before freezing to reduce moisture losses by 85 per cent. “Some coatings also add a nu tritious substance to the product. “Water soluble films are al ready available for packaging instant tea, dehydrated soup and powered drinks. “Can you imagine dropping an envelope of soup into boiling water and stirring a minute— while the soup powder, as well as the envelope, dissolve?” she grinned. Turning to some possible stum bling blocks, Miss Kreipke listed sanitation and strength as prob lems. “Edible containers must be protected from dust and bacterial contamination, which will add to packing costs and increiL to the consumer. 1 “These edible eontaiiuy must be ^ strong enough ttig stand touching and hano^ ^ ^ well as strong enough the product. “So far, no coating ln 5 ^ , found suitable for all pr« fc she reported. “Except for beeswaxaul^ -pj rind, there are very feweu^ 72-5< in nature to exploit indu “So while edible contaii a possibility, there an problems to solve before expect to eat all that we when we buy food.’’ BATTALION CLASSIFIEl WANT AD RATES One day 6* per word Ac per word each additional day Minimum charge—75$ Classified Display $1.00 per column inch each insertion DEADLINE 4 p.m. day before publication FOR SALE PRICED FOR IMMEDIATE SALE 1962 Buick, 4 dr., power ($300) ; 1963 Rambler Station Wagon, new battery, rebuilt transmission ($300) ; 1968 Chry sler, all power, new shocks, brakes, and tires.
