should chart the week's social events,
he'd fin J. just us we do, that there is a
sharp decline along about Wednesday and
Thursday, and a distinct upward slant
toward the end of the week. These next
three days promise to follow the usual
trend with enough of a jump to satisfy
even the most socially minded of the
campus elite, for both the A. T. O.'s and
I'hi Psi's arc giving dinner dances to
night, and the Delta Gamma's are hold
ing their little "get together" Saturday.
Uosides these three functions, and they'd fill a week end in
themselves, the Junior Ak-Sar-Ucn ball at the Student Activities
building, a V. W. V. A. social staff party at Grant Memorial,
and house dances lor Pi Flu, I). S. u. and Farm House, are
slated. Such an imposing list of events guarantees an exciting
Friday and Saturday for everyone, so sally forth to the formals
Avith the idea of having yourselves a time. There won't be

HELL WEEK CONTINUES
Fraternities Discover Ways
To Evade Restrictions,
Survey Shows.
(By Associated Collegiate Tress.)
NEW BRUNSWICK. N. J.
Rutgers university authorities may
legislate against "Hell Week," the
bane of fraternity pledges, but the
fraternity members who have
themselves had to go thru the test
ing period can be counted on to
find ways to thoroly try out their
prospective brothers, a survey of
Hell Week" activities here proves.
"Hell Week" has been shortened
to three days and the university
has restrained activities insofar as
hours are concerned. The net re
sult is that the lack of time is
somewhat made up for by an in
crease in intensity as the freshmen
are put thru their paces.
Naive observers might carry
away the impression that the old
"Rah-Rah" spirit has been done
away with for more sensible "con
structive work," and "useful activi
ties around the? house," but two
fraternities are compelling their
pledges to issue hourly cuckow
calls from the turreted tower of
one of the chapter houses. An
other Greek-letter club treats the
pledges as "dogs" and they are ex
pected to live up to the highest ca
nine traditions. In addition, they
must kiss their unfortunate cook
daily.
A thirty pound pig, a brown
duck, and a white rooster comprise
the menagerie of one of the fra
ternities. The pig is to be released
with the pledges following close
behind in pursuit.
Two sophomores, altho they
could get out of "hell week," are
going thru it "just for the fun of
it." As one said, "Jt a just once
in a lifetime." One of these boys
is carrying around 112 eggs. He
gave up long ago trying to use his
pockets and now employs a waste
paper basket.
The Nebraska Blue Print pre
sented its March issue today car
rying a technical account of the
products of nitro-cellulose and a
description of a new type of heat
ing unit. The two articles are writ
ten by two engineering students
whose names are withheld and are
entitled "Products of Nitro-Cellu-lose"
and New Type of Heating
Unit at Mount Holyoke College."
In the first article, the products
of nitro-cellulose, which is made
from cotton, are described in detail
and written in manner understood
by engineering students, Marvin
Nuern berger, editor of the engin
eering student publication, stated.
The second story deals with a new
type of heating unit now in use at
Mount Holyoke College. Various
technical aspects of this equip
ment are listed and its effective
ness is also given.
Ferguson Writes Article.
Dean O. J. Ferguson in an article
on the licensing of the engineering
proression Dy the state, gives the
advantages to be gained by such a
requirement. Leading engineers of
me state are now backing such a
requirement for the profession,
Nuernbeiger said, and at present
there is a bill before the state leg
islature to that effect.
A design of Boulder Dam. pro
duced by the architectural depart
ment., appears as this month's cov
er design. Also in this issue is pub
lished the regular alumni notes and
organization news.
Writers of these feature articles

conceived an ideal, but very stren-

harrier has been swimming two
660-yard distanca daily to obtain
the greatest possible endurance for

Pixley succeeded in covering the
first 440-yards in 8 minutes 15 sec

BOSTON', Mass. Today's col
lege girla make more use of the
education they receive and are
more interested in relating their
college work to their future activ
ity than the college girls of previ
ous generations, Miss Ellen Fitz
Pendleton, president of Wellesley
college, declared here recently.
"The average college girl of to
day is more frank, more ap
proachable and less willing to ac
cept opinions handed out to her
than her predecessors, which is a
good thing," Miss Pendleton said.
"I think the modern college girl
is much more serious minded than
twenty-five years ago. As a group,
she is very much interested in pub
lic afalrs and she has, on the
whole, more Intellectual curiosity
than the girl of fifteen years ago
and, after all, that is the basis for
acquiring knowledge." she added.
The Burrell class, an experi
mental class in extra-curricular

o'clock. It will follow the usual
Friday night social dancing class,
which is held from 7:15 to 8 o'clock,
with Miss Bernice Miller, instruct
ing. Decorations centering around
the tale of George Washington and
the cherry tree will be used, and
refreshments will be served at the
close of the evening. The arrange
ments for the party are in charge
of Evelyn Diamond, chairman of
the social staff, and she is assisted
by staff members and two mem

LONDON, Feb. 19 Samuel
Pepys, immortal gossip and histo
rian, spoke again this week after
232 years beneath the sod. Two
more diaries of Pepys were found
in the Pepys library of Magdalene
College, Cambridge University.
One deals with the naval prob
lems of the day, for Samuel was
once a secretary of the navy.
Some entries in the other tell of a
plot against Pepys' king, Charles
II.
Unlike the familiar and famous
diary, the new documents are
wriuen in longhand, but they are
couched in the unmistakable,
forceful language of the known
diary, curators say.
The naval diary deals with in
vestigations conducted by Charles
II and the Privy Council into the
affairs of the naval office. It as-
sertedlv forms a valuable and his
toric document and gives a won
derful picture of Pepys industry
and abilities and his reliance on
them.
