If residents of the girls' dorm

chicken pox rumors on campus
said the girls may be "suscepti

Three A Clubs
To Hold Joint
Meet Tonight
The proposed merger of three
Ag campus clubs which was dis
cussscd before vacation will be
come a reality tonight when
members of Varsity Dairy, Poul
try and Block and Bridle clubs
will hold their first joint meet
ing. Dr. C. B. Sehultz, director of
the museum, will give the feature
adrress before the assembled
groups in room 301, Dairy In
dustry. The meeting will begin
at 7:30, according to Glenn Clay
baugh, president of Varsity Dairy.
Ag Students Welcome
All Ag sudents are welcome to
attend the program, which will
be supplemented by films taken
of museum work last summer.
After the talk, the various clubs
will hold individual business
meetings, Claybaugh said.
Under the provisions of the
merger, which has been agreed
to by representatives of the three
Hubs, no man mav be a mem
ber of more than one of the
three organizations. Joint meetings
will be held once a month on
the second Thursday and will be
followed by separate business
meetings. This will enable the
clubs to preserve their own iden
tity, and, at the same time, spon
sor more informative discussions
of agricultural problems.
Setup Centralizes Clubs
"By our new setup, we hope
to make Ag college clubs more
centralized and remove some of
the activity which crowds the
evening available for club work,"
remarked Claybaugh." "Limiting
allegiance to one of the three
clubs will also allow members to
be more active in their chosen
organization."
