Although Miss Orr was taught
by stage directors and she danced
in one of Earl Carrol's yearly
"Vanities," she claim she is more
interested in drama and playwrlt
ing and in the "big city" turned
her thoughts to the stage, in the
role of an understudy to one of the
lead In a Broadway production.
Her dramatic ambitions were
about to be realized when ehe wa
taken ill and wa forced to give
up work on the stage.

views he expressed in a talk he
lore a recent convention at the
University of Iowa.
He states that compulsory R. O.
T. C. in colleges and universities
are a Eubtle and effective means
ef militarising the mind of the
coming generation through a men
tal goose stepping and prettified
war with honorary girl colonels
and ponies for campus paradts.
But thev do not make men like
the idea of fighting in war. "The
Germaiw tiidn t think' of fighting
aya pleasure," he says, "but a sys
tem cf militarism does bring about
the acceptance of war."
Mr. Thomas believes thtre is a
Cistc system la th United olii.es,
with class lines based on distinc
tions of money and position. He
thinks there Is one justice for the
rich and another for the poor, who
bear the brunt of demands for law
enforcement and are unable to buy
freedom. "Otherwise." be asks,
"why would Wall street criminals
go unconvicted while Sacco and
VcnzetU suffer death?"
The presidential nominee de

States, but under the present sys

banker who holds a mortgage on
his land, worker fears employer.
and preachers often cringe before
the money whip exercised by
wealthy church backers.
People are afraid to act and do

opinion. He believes they do not

However. 0 the saying goes,

PANHEL CHAIRMAN
Mrs. Irving E. Brown Says
Dates of Parties May
Be Published.
PHI OMEGA PI ADMITTED
"The national congress of Pan
Hellenic decidedly oppose publicity
on all fraternity matters, except
! listing of the pledges," stated Mrs.
Ilrvi. 4 K. Brown, national chair
n of college Pan-Hellenics. "The
c,i.tes of the parties, however, may
be listed in the social calendar,'
according to the Pan-Hellenic
chairman.
"If there have been any In
fringement on thl rule in other
colleges, it is not due to an consent
by the congress, but due rather to
lack of support of the faculty and
the fraternities with the national
council." she declared.
"In the recent meeting of the
congress tn Denver, short open
rushing seasons with aa simple
rushing rules as possible, leaving
the details to each campus, was
advocated," Mrs. Brown explained.
She would give no opinion on local
rules, declaring that she was not
acquainted with the campus regu
lations and existing conditions.
Freed of Masonic Regulation.
"A point of interest to you," she
went on, "might be that Phi O
mega Pi has just been admitted
Into associated membership of na
tional Pan-Hellenic. Because of
their former Masonic restriction,
they could not be admitted before."
"An innovation, and one that I
feel 1 a big step forward, for Pan
Hellenic, is the extension of the
national congress to include repre
sentative in the next convention
to meet in two years. Invitationc
will be sent to each college which
is a member of Pan-Hellenic, al
though they are by no means com
pulsory," and with these word
Mr. Brown concluded the Inter
view. - She will talk to an open meeting
of the Pan-Hellenic representative
and others interested Sunday
morning at 9:30 o'clock in Ellen
3ir.lth hall. Her tpic will center
round a report from the meeting
of the Pan-Hellenic congress.
