Big Day Coming
Thirty days hath April, so in four -weeks
it will lie May 1. Ivy day is on .May 1 which is
also the day when .Mortar Hoards will choose
their successors.
Now everybody knows that few of the
new Innocents will be around the campus next
fall ,and it has become quite obvious that the
pals are taking over. That is why the election
of new Mortar Boards increases in importance
this year.
AVilh only four weeks rcmainin;jr, the jun
ior activty women, although pretty sure that
leading senior women have already chosen
new members of the honorary, are beginning
to gi t worried.
Von can note their apprehension every
time they see a 3Iort;r Hoard. And ol! late,
they have really begun to work -in every pos
sible activty. A last minute rise to recogni
tion in extra-curricular activities miidit be
enou'-ih to force the M-H's to chanirc llieir
minds. The lights oi' the exalted chamber of
the senior coed bin-shots might shine.
.Meanwhile, the wearers of 'the Hlack
Masque say nothing; their every action is to
add to ihe concern ol' activity minded juniors.
Every cll'ort is made to keep Ihe selection of
the Morlar Hoards an absolute secret until the
making n Ivy Day.
So for '2S days more, junior activity
women will worry; sorority sisters will offer
encouragement; and the Mortar Hoards will
draw upon all of their fortitude to keep their
mouths shut.
And in the meantime, the few men on ihe
campus who are at all interested in the pro
ceedings will look on with enjoyment. They
will laugh, but they are seeing the leaders ef
tomorrow
over.

Army Sergeant

Writes Coed
(ACP). A torn scrap of
newspaper has resulted in a
correspondence between Anne
Bolivar, Westminster college
co-ed, and a United States army
sergeant 6,000 miles away in
New Guinea.
It all started when the ser
geant found Anne's picture on a
piece of old American news
paper in the steaming, rain
soaked jungle. Since he hadn't
seen a woman in a long time,
the sergeant decided to write to
the pretty co-ed.
The picture had been distrib
uted last October by a national
newspaper syndicate. It showed
