arate commission groups for
freshmen daring the first sem
ester, Virginia Koehler, leader
of the freshman cabinet, said, is
to completely orient freshmen
coeds into the YWCA program.
Miss Koehler said that the
freshmen groups are patterned
after the upperclass groups in
their discussions. However, she
added, the discussions are of a
broader scope and are designed
to acquaint the freshmen with all
areas.
Some of the semester discussion
topics will be: "Why Are We in
College?" "Problems of Campus
Living," "Religion on the Cam
pus," "Christian Heritage," "Poli
tical Effectiveness" and "Social
Service Tour."
Freshmen unable to attend the
"roundup" Thursday may register
anytime after Thursday in Ellen
Smith.
The YWCA freshmen commis

The Home Economics club

they may continue on to find bet

An example of the type of
rehabilitation Goodwill does is
that of a blind man who came
to the Goodwill Industries lack
ing a job and possessing no
s e 1 f-confidence in himself.
Goodwill offered him a job as
a telephone solicitor in which
he used a brail telephone direc
tory to call people about the
services offered by Goodwill.
Today, through the training and
encouragement he received at the
Goodwill Industries, the blind,
man now has a desk job at the
