Alpha Chi Omega's date
bureau tops penny carnival
Kappa Alpha Theta places second with
'Charlie McCarthy1 booth; over 500 attend
For the second consecutive year, Alpha Chi Omega an
nexed the cup for the best booth at the Penny Carnival held
yesterday, offering carnival goers stuffed dates containing tele
phone numbers on their "date bureau."
Second place was awarded to
Kappa Alpha Theta's "Charley
McCarthy" game of chance. The
winning sorority will keep the
bronze loving cup for another year,
with its name engraved upon the
cup again.
Throngs fill Grant Memorial.
Taking advantage of cut throat
prices and unheard of opportuni
ties, over 500 students arrived on
the scene and tested all the con
cessions, ambling through Grant
Memorial with cokes and hot dogs
In hand.
The low prices for the priceless
goods of each concession raised
competition for the most popular
booth to a high peak and each
house vied with the other for the
cup, won last year by Alpha Chi
Omega. One 15 cent ticket, be
sides admitting the holder to ten
concessions and the carnival, gave
him one vote for the booth he
liked best.
Dancing to music furnished by
a public address system proved
very popular and the crowd also
patronized to the fullest extent the
refreshment stand sponsored by
the coed counselor board and fea
turing hot dogs, cokes, candy bars
and fudge.

AMERICA'S PATHWAY
The people of the United States
delegates remain steadfast In their
of that peace.
Ambassadors Kennedy and Bullitt have already expressed their
personal opinions as to the outbreak of a general European war early
this spring. Representative Knutson (Minn., rep.), last surviving mem
ber of the House to vote against
war, asserts that our present foreign policy Is drawing us into the
coming war as Inevitably as American foreign policy drew us into
the World war In 1917. '
Portions of the administration's rearmament program already have
been approved by the Congress, and other segments of the plan
have been favorably reported by select committees of .both , house ct
Congress.
Sentaor Johnson (Cal., rep.) asserts that the administration con
ducts its foreign affairs secretly and resents any inquiry into the
recent sales of American military planes to France. Senator Clark
(Mo., dem.) announces that some
Senate military affairs committee
made public, but asserts that most
insisted on talking off the record. Short years ago the American
people heard the phrase, "open covenants openly arrived at" What
does this mean today, If anything?
