Pledge Council
To Participate
In Greek Week
With the unofficial sanction of
the Interfraternity Council the
pledge council decided to take an
active part in Greek week Feb. 8
13, sponsor a pledge dance to
wards the end of formal season
at their meeting last night. The
pledge council was formed last
month, according to Pat Patter
son, Sigma Nu pledge, to pro
mote friendship among pledges
and is "non-political."
This year's officers are Ted Fin
ley Sigma Alpha Epsilon, presi
dent; Robert Johnson, Phi Kappa
Psi, vice president; and Robert
Olson, Alpha Tau Omega, secretary-treasurer.
"The Interfraternity Council
unofficially sanctions the new
pledge council because it will
train freshmen for interfraternity
work and prepare them to keep
fraternities alive regardless of the
war," said Walt Rundin, member
of the executive council. Co-operation
among pledges is important
for better understanding among
fraternities." he concluded.
The pledge council is composed
of two pledges from each frater
nity on the campus.

dren may occur before develop
ment of speech is reported by Dr.
Milton H. Erickson, assistant pro
fessor of psychiatry at Wayne
university.

Chemists Use Gas Masks
To Find Mystifying Clouds
... Of Smoke
Great clouds of smoke poured
forth from the ventilators in Avery
chemistry laboratory at about 10
o'clock yesterday morning. Very
worried professors and students
groped their way thru the mists,
looked for the blaze, and waited
for the explosion which might
come at any moment. Here was
possible disaster; fires in chemical
labs don't wait for the fire de
partment. A group of research chemists
headed by Chief N. H. Crom
well were the first to reach the
janitor's storeroom in the base
ment, the origin of the trouble.
Unable to see the fire in the billows
of smoke, gasping for a little pure
air, Cromwell, armed with a
carbon dioxide spray, hurled him
self to the floor (there's a little
oxygen there) and crawled off in
search of the blaze.
Choking, he called for some
gas masks whereupon the crowd
which had gathered hurried off for
them. In ten minutes the excite
ment was over, the fire out, the
fire fighters alive and well. When
the smoke cleared away the story
revealed "itself. Some papers and
rags had started to burn thru
spontaneous combustion. With
no window in the room the smoke
went out thru the ventilator and
found its way into the entire venti
lating system. Total loss: one roll
of paper towels. Finis.
