Artillery {Drawing of woman in pleated skirt, knee socks, tennis shoes, cardigan, blouse with pennant on top right half of page beside the words "official dress"} It is time to check your ammunition supplies designed to "wow" the SUI population. The password here is "casual." SUI fashions are versatile and practical in style and price. For classes, dark cottons, sweaters, blouses, and skirts are all appropriate with knee socks or bobby socks worn with sneakers or loafers. Anything goes as long as it is clean and neat in appearance. This official casual uniform of SUI students is changed for football, movie, and dance dates by donning hose and flats. A basic wool dress or suit is appropriate for church, teas, and concerts. Attractive accessory changes are all that are needed to give that basic dress a new look. Formal wear is simple. Strictly formal attire is never seen at Iowa. A cocktail dress, simple sheath, or dressy wool is most appropriate. Picnic and dorm wear demand sweatshirts, blouses, bermudas, slacks, and cut-off levis. Sportswear and comfortable lounging and studying clothes are the most popular and most worn items in any coed's wardrobe. The seasons and their accompanying weather set many fashion styles in Iowa City. Coeds rush winter by wearing sweaters and skirts almost immediately. But when winter comes, it brings wool slacks, knee socks, leotards, heavy coats, and snow boots with it. Many a coed huddles in warm clothing running between classes in below zero weather. But when the April sun begins to warm the air, coeds head for the sundecks in swimming suits, carrying books to welcome spring. "It always rains in Iowa City" is offered as a word of warning to you. Everyone carries umbrellas at SUI. Be sure to include this most useful item on your shopping list. They pop up like mushrooms when the rain comes. When you select your clothes for SUI, keep the following advice in mind. Your old clothes seem new to us and are no doubt perfect for college wear. The purchase of a few new items to spruce up your wardrobe is a wise 8
