The second newly-announced revision of AWS rules absurd. Granted that perhaps corsages

housemother and AWS President Dorothy Carnahan (or
any other senior AWS board member in case Miss Carna
han is not available.) This bit of red tape replaces the
former procedure of obtaining the verbal permission of
housemother and AWS if a coed found it necessary to ex
ceed regular hours.
Drawing criticism, too, is the AWS announcement that
coeds must be more specific in filling sign-out checks

entry. Now "Stuart" or "Lincoln" or "Turnpike" must be
specified. An even closer check on their whereabouts and
activities must be obtained.
Coming on the heels of a ruling that no woman stu
dent may be out after dark unless properly escorted, these
new regulations do not sit well with university coeds, who
see in them a further attempt to restrict their liberties.
Regulation of university students is admittedly neces
sary and coeds are more than willing to accept such regu
lation, as long as it does not exceed the bounds of reason
and justice. But regulations such as those announced Mon
day definitely do exceed these bounds. The new ruling gov-

anyway.
And that ain't all. No longer can we sign

No, we must now sign out "north" or
"south." Ye gods and little pink fishes, who
ever knows which direction they are going
to walk, who ever walks the same direction
all the time on a walk ? Are we supposed to
run back to the house every time we turn
a corner and change the sign-out sheet to
correspond with the new direction we have
taken ?
Reports show that coeds in every house

For coeds to respect and consequently
obey rules, the rules must be sensible and
worthy of respect and obedience. As long
as the rules are considered ridiculous, not
just by us, but by a majority of the coeds,
they will not improve conditions one dai

When are they to be accorded the reasonable, just treat
