at time specified in order that th'
whole list of fraternities can b
judged in one night and the deci
sion of skits for the revue b-a
made.
Beginning at 7:30 p.m. the try
outs will last until 11:30, with 20
minutes being allowed to each of r
the 12 groups. Announcement of
skits accepted for the show Willi
be made in the Nov. 5 issue of
the Daily. Laughlin emphasized
that all Kosmet Klub actives must
be at the office promptly at 7:20.

Serve Community.
Federal and state government
must carry much of the adminis
trative burden of supporting edu
cation, said Dr. Cyr, though the
danger must be avoided is any
threat to the right of the com
munity to teach what it believes.
He explained that the school's
part in this program was to prop
erly serve its community.
"Our small communities have
changed from distinctly separate
life between town and open coun
try to town-centered communities
which include unified activities of
town and country," Dr. Cyr said.
The school district is the last
barrier to an integrated commun
ity life."
