On the dance pavilion of "so
ciety" with the moody Chris Pet
erson (to quote Chris) who is an
odd fellow because he cogitates
every other week . . . and with
the Daily columnist meditating
dismally, what could this be but a
gloomy Sunday? . . . besides col
lege commences again tomorrow.
However, anything but dismal
was the week-ending. . . . Herbie
Kaye was a magnet for the lads
and lasses who jammed the Turn
pike to resemble a bowl of soup
moving from counter to table at
noon in a busy beanery, . . . Seen
among the meele' were Kappa Sig
Bill Klory, with Lynn Dale, Sigma
Nu Johnny Dean with Alpha Chi
Jane Jordan, . . . plus a couple of
ATO's like Ray Rolland and Art
Pierson with Mary Runyan, KKG,
and Marge Smithwri Phi . . . and
Sig Alph V. Francis with Vyonne
Costello who has chained up her
Chi O pin again. . . . 'Twas a good
brawl . . . period.
Other most undismal sights
might include the flock of younger
Thetas who were convorting on
the KAT front lawn ... a sort of
bare-footed dash through the
sprinkler . . . nice looking legs
some of those Thetas . . .
Nate Holman, the Sigma Nu
with the ruddy locks, is carrying
his white star around personally
now , . . says it's because 2,000
miles is too far to send a Sigma
Nu pin for that far away it jusl
becomes part of somebody's charm
bracelet after a while . . .
Still, apparently, on that merry-go-round
that's around two year;?
old are Bette Rathburn diminutive
DG, and Les WriRht if that coker
in the Union isn't just for old
times' sake . . .

this campus who have social chair

A sure-fire method for getting
dates for their pledges was used
this week by the Delta Gammas
. Members of the date com

with blank spaces after their
names, to be filled out by the fra

$45 to 500!
The estimates in the survey
ranged from $45 to $500, and
from these the averages for both
barb and sorority women were
computed. Itesuits showed that
the average amount spent by a so
rority woman is $262, while the
barb girl spends $109. These aver
ages may vary, depending upon
the year of school that the girl
is in.
