November 9, 1928 . WILMETTE' ·.LI ·F E · Says Novel Test Proves Co-eds Are Level-Headed Lot Only twenty coeds out of 275 at Northwestern university consider cigarets a necessity; fifty-t:wo are doubtful whether they should be classed as a necessity or luxury; while the rest, or 203, are emphatically of the opin!on that tl}ey are a luxury. These facts were revealed yesterday in the replies to a questionnaire sent to 500 university coeds by the ~Y . W. C. A. to discover the importance of particular expend!tures irt the budgets of Northwe~tern coeds. Two hundred and seventy-five answers to the questionnaire have been received. While cigarets are regarded by the majority in the light of a luxury, sport clothes are considered a necessity in the replies of two hundred and fiftyone. In the matter of fur coats, opinions seem to be fairly well divided. One hundred and fifteen regard them as a necessity, while 160 place them in the luxury class. P.radically all believe that books, fountain pens and wrist watches are absolute necessities and eighty-six of the 275 are of the same opinion with respect to typewriters. Candy, gum, theaters and motion pictures, trips to the football games and motor cars are placed in the luxury class by mo~ of the coeds. Only twenty-five regard candy as a necPssity, and thirteen believe that chewing ~urn is . a necessary adjunct to their lives. Sixty feel that the theater is a necessity and fifty-two entertain the same opinion of the movies. Only twenty-nine of the 275 look upon trips to the football ~ames in the light of a necessity. And in the opinion of all except thirty-nine, motor cars should be regarded as a luxury. "These replies indicate that university women . a whole are level-headed and sensible," said E. H. Hahne. assistant dean of the college of liberal arts. f a ·I 1 ,. ., .l Go~=.~fsb?.:~~:uit cocktail glasses.
