The trainload of rooters will ar

Organization of Unaffiliated
Women Will Be sougm
By Committee.
In an attempt to give non-sorority
girls a greater opportunity
to participate in activities, the A.
W S. board is sponsoring a com
mittee of unaffiliated girls who
will make plans for a definite or
ganization. The members of this committee,
which is working under the direc
tion of Carolyn Van Anda are
Evelvn Diamond, Marjone Filley.
Margaret Medlar. Marjorie Smith
and Bonnie Spangaard. Each of
the members is to be in charge of
a group of twenty-five girls, with
whom they are personally ac
quainted. These groups will, it is
thought, have a recognition service
for the members and will sponsor
participation in activities in much
the same way that the sororities
do.
Seek Activities Attendance.
Definite plans have not yet been
completed, but it is probable that
in ka friven for attendance
points ui ' - --- - .
at activities and that, at the end
of the year, the girls having the
greatest number of pointa will fill
the places of the committee which
works with the A. W. S. board.
Committee members are at pres
ent selecting the memoers of their
groups and it ia hoped that the or
ganization can be completed as
soon as possible.
"The board feels that this plan,
which is being tried for the first
time thi. year, will increase the
interest of unaffiliated girls in ac
tivities and will .e 'm t5
operation among them stated
Margaret Buol. president of the A.

students who plan to submit ideas,
make their plans simple and the
cost of construction less than the
cost of last year's presentation.

then the price will again be $1.50.
Many students indicated that
tney expect to subscribe for the
paper before the low price now in
effect is withdrawn.
The extremely low price ot $1 t
made possible bv a large increase
in advertising. The paper is now
rated among the fourteen highest
