BY THE HAUNTER
No file engines were called for
and no fire engines came, but
enough water was poured in the
Sig Alph windows the other night
to put out the blaze in old Chicago
and two or three times over. The
action started when smiling Sam
Francis drenched the boys on the
S. A. E. lawn with a bucket of
H20 thrown from a second story
window. The hose was brought
Into play from below and Sam and
his other mermaid friend would
have had a dousing if the window
hadn't slammed down. Someone
threw a rock through the pane of
glass and the room was flooded.
The big one sheltered himself with
a shower curtain till a bucket was
brought to drop on the hosers'
hep.ds. Swish and the window was
down once more and the fight was
over.
John Mason and Verna Ray were
much embarrassed by the an
nouncement of their pin hanging
in this column. The two have re
ceived Congrats all day from their
friends and enemies, when as a
nwtter of fact Johnnie is still
sporting his hardware himself. We
are sorry; we were led astray by
Kappa gossip.
Romance is in the air and this
time it's Adna Dobson and Jane
Bell who are rushing around to
gether. Rumor has it that Dobby
is the 28th victim, but don't get us
wrong. We only heard.
Back to the Beta house, as pre
dicted, went Marie Anderson, Kite
girl. We were right for once.
And it's a new girl at the drug
who serves cokes to the stus who
drink them. The Sig Alphs must
have run Irma, the old one, out for
she wasn't there yesterday morn
ing. Need we remind you that the
Awgwan is on the stands. Truth
is on the march in the gore col
umns, so beware of cartoonists and
candid cameras.

Stanley Peterson, one A. T. 0.

coke almost too much to handle
one night not so very long ago at

it seems, and with it six or eight
ounces of coke. Stanley found the
proximity of the Alpha' Tau shanty
much to his advantage.
And speaking of beverages, Rill
Sackett and roommates could tell
a tale if they would. Recently '.wo

SOCIETY
Nothing remains a secret for
ever. Pris Chain, Theta, and
Bucky Prime, A. T. O., were re
joicing at the fact that Pris had
had his pin for nigh onto a week
and it had escaped the publica
tions. However, it was seen and
it's not in possession- of just- j
friends now. It seems he got it
the Tuesday before Ivy Day. That
evening both houses sang over the
radio, and so Pris and Bucky came
home together. That was the
night she put it next to her kite.
It seems that Chi Phi calls
their officers by letters of the al
phabet, for those just elected were
turned in by these titles: Dean
Kadavy, alpha; Wayne Mullet,
beta; Kenneth Tcich, gamma; Bill
Spencer, delta; George - Nelson
Lyon, epsilon; and Cecil Hallowell,
zeta.
Saturday night brings the Sig
ma Nu Gold Rush pary once
again. This party hns been a
tradition since 1912. It was first
started for the purpose of having
an original party and has contin
ued to be so. The whole house
takes on the appearance of the
days of '49. The decoratic - ire
so complete that it tak o
whole days to put them i. i re
is the old fashioned r1 v '1
and bar: gambling tables and tin
type pictures; photographers ask
ing to take pictures, and charac
ters of the old west running all
over the place. Last year Adna
Dobson came as a gambler, and
his date, Frances Boldman, D. G.,
wore hooped skirts. Tommy Da
vidson, brought his squaw in by
the hair; Jack Simmons came as
a deacon, but Louise Boyd, Kappa,
failed to fall in line with her date,
for she didn't come as the deacon's
wife. . .definitely not.
Duke Deger showed up as a
prospector, with Virginia Lee.
However, he didn't use her pan to
look for gold. Betty Jean David
son and Jack Bingenheimer were
together, and also Mary Margaret
Maly with Harry Haney. In fact,
it looked as tho it were the days
of Delta Gamma instead of '49.
Pat Peterson became the second
Mae West with hr sweeping
skirt and fancy dress. Pat, who is
a Pi Phi, was supposed to be
the "Belle of '49, ' and according
to reports, she really was there.
Her date was Howard Fisher, who
portrayed the part of a gambler,
we suppose, to keep Pat in her
frills and laces. At present, cou
ples are worrying as to what to
show up in. Maybe this will help

The Women's National Radio
committee at its fourth annual
luncheon meeting last week announced-
that its members had
voted in favor of a single award
to "splendid achievement in radio"
for 1937.
This award went to George V.
Denny, jr., and "America's Town
Meeting of the Air," a National
Broadcasting Company feature.
Although confining itself to this
one selection, the committee com
nicmled a number of other broad
casts in various classifications
without the formality of making
presentations or awards.
The following were some of the
favorites published:
Best programs of serious
music commercially sponsored:
Ford Sunday evening hour,
Philadelphia orchestra cancerts,
"Musical Star" programs and
Metropolitan Opera broadcasts.
The first is a CBS program, the
others, NBC broadcasts.
Best Dramatic programs: Lux
radio theatre and Columbia
Workshop, both CBS features.
Best serial program: One
Man's Family, NBC program.
Best Variety program: Good
news of 1938, Rudy Vallee, both
NBC.
Best adult educational pro
grams: "America's Town Meet
ing of the Air, NBC; and Pro
fessor Quiz, CBS.
Best Radio Comedians:
Charlie McCarthy, and Fred
Allen, both NBC.
Outstanding comedy team:
Jack Benny and Mary Living
stone first, Amos and Andy sec
ond, Burns and Allen third. All
are NBC performers.
Most popular master of cere
monies: Don Ameche, first;
Robert Taylor, second. Both
NBC.
Good taste in Advertising:
First place to Jell-O, on NBC,
Second to DuPont's "Cavalcade
of America" on CBS.
If she remembers a tune while
digging in her garden or having
her hair waved, it's a sure sign to
Connie Boswell that the song,
whether she likes it or not, is
going to be a hit. All it has to do
is "repeat" in her mind.
Acting on these hunches, the
warm voiced girl from the deep
south, singing star on the CBS
Monday night Show has shown
uncanny ability to pick winners in
the popular song sweepstakes.
"I do recordings at least four
months in advance." she says, in
explaining how she manages to be
so lucky in picking hits. "I hear
these new songs, work them over
on the piano, and if they keep
coming back when I'm doing
things I like to do, I know I have
something."'
Her all time "high" in pick
ing successes occurred recently
when out of eight songs, sub
mitted, she picked seven that
turned out to be hits. But
"Martha" the newest Boswell
craze, she picked for "Swing
ing,' because she adored the
Caruso records of the opera as
a child.
Connie, once just one of the
trio of the famous Boswell sisters,
which included Martha and Vet,
is definitely "on her own" now in
the entertainment field. Again she
is demonstrating that spark of
originality in modern music whicn
brought to her and her sisters
fame and wealth.
She Is one of the few feminine
stars who talks the way she sings.
She speaks with a deep tone and
her words have a haunting timber.

today at the Explorers" club by
Dr. Charles Del Norte Winning,
field director of the Rainbow
Bridge, Monument Valley expedi
tion. The expedition is to explore,
map, and study an area of some
2,000 square miles in a remote
region that Is probably farther
from a railroad than any other
point in the United States. Pene
trating as far as possible by mo

equipment by pack train up wind
ing canyons out into Rainbow
plateau. Near the head of the
Dogoszhi Biko, a base camp will
be established, and from this point
scouting parties and scientific
workers will push on afoot.

Ansel Franklin Hall, president,
the American Exploration society,
under whose direction the expedi
tion is organized, states:
"We have already begun our
explorations in that fascinating
country of mesas, canyons, and
deserts, but have as yet covered
only a small portion of the area.
About the middle of June we are
going back to take up the task of
pushing out as far as possible into

Van Sant Urges Students
Attend Hops to Mix,
Not to Date.
Student Union officials were
greatly pleased with a turnout of
over 500 students at the matinee
dance held yesterday in the Union
ballroom.
Records were played, with the
most popular hit tunes used for
dance music. Director Kenneth
Van Sant emphasized however,
that "the purpose of these mati-
nee dances is to let everyone gci
acquainted with everyone else.
We do not stage these matinee j
dances especially for those who !
make dates and come to dance,
but rather for the entire student
body. Everyone should come, date
or no date, and get acquainted. A
big stag line and a lot of cutting
is perfectly all right with us." i
Saturday afternoon from 3:30 j
to 5:30 another matinee dance j
will be held with the recording :
