EDITORIAL Editor Tub Clem Bl.SI.NESS RiKfnea Mnnager Keith O'Bannon Nitht News Kditor Norma C hubbuck With Tongue In Cheek .By Cub Clem If anyone notices an improvement in the three maior student publications in the next few weeks, they can thank last weekend's national collegiate press convention at the Hotel Statler in Detroit. Five NU publications leaders, including- the writer, attended a worthy project. Not the least important things on the program were dtty seminars covering various phases of college news paper, annual and magazine production. Promotion, sales, printing, advertising, student cooperation and many other significant topics were discussed by student leaders from all over the country. Ideas, prejudices and opinions . were frankly kicked around. As a result, the delegates went home feeling they "k$g more about their own campus and how they could help and improve it. The social contacts, both with students and with of ficials, also proved valuable. John Connelly, of the Corn husker, for instance, talked with faculty advisors and edi tors of annuals to get ideas on how the Cornhusker could be printed more cheaply and efficiently, with an eye toward a possible reduction in Cornhusker prices next year. The other four travelers also mulled over problems with repre sentatives of other schools. In short, the University did well to send students to the convention. The school will profit by it.

So we decided to do something about it. Result the birth of a .column by Marilyn Moomey and Hugh Follmer. The calendar showed a big week end in the making. Not to be left out, we thought we'd see what was happening around the place. For a supposedly small dance, the llusker Huddle turned out to have a record crowd, plus tables and chairs, giving the ballroom that intimate look. The floorshow presented by Jerry Lopez, chair man of the dance, seemed as tiio it came straight from a New York night club. Donna Dori an literally 'wowed' the audience with her singing. With such entertainment as Pat Dutlon and her "Seranade to a Jerk" and Pat Heivert's piano playing, the Union could almost put on a full length show with the talent that has been brought to light this year. So much for the lighter side of life. Dropped in the Union Saturday to see how the Pigskin party was doing. Carol Cherny, selling pop corn, was one of the few girls among the many serious minded strategists watching Marv Grimm chart the plays. That charting is really something nice way to pick up some of the finer points. Seemed funny seeing Roxie Elias not leading cheers but just silting with Tom Podhaiskey who was also helping diagram. Ruth Speer added a note of color to the otherwise dark heads. Bob Russell entered a plea for more gals. Seems as tho there is a shortage lor the dances that follow. We leave you with the thought, could the bigger success of the Union activities this year be do to more co-operation on the part of everybody. A lot of the Union "bigs'" think so.

To bring their remedial English de j partment up to date the college says that all Juniors will be re i quired to take an English exam, j Those who fail will be required to take a course in remedial English until the instructor in charge thinks that the students have an adequate knowledge of collect English.

Dance Lessons Begin Tonight In Ballroom Ever see a little fox trot or a Virginia reel? A sportsman may think we are talking about fox hunts and deep sea fishing. However, a University student after his danco lesson wiil know better. If you were baffled by the auerv then it is advised hv th Union Dance committee that you attend the first weekly dance in struction tonight at 7 p.m. in the Union ballroom. Acting as professor in this "night lab" will be professional dance instructor, Donna McCand Icss. According to the Union Activi ties Office already 120 students have registered for the lessons. It was added also, that the all important ratio between males and females will be fifty-fifty. Students who have not registered are still urged to attend. Elementary dancing will be the, feature of the Tuesday night in struction, however more advanced steps may be taught if enough students show interest. The Committee pointed out that the pie-formal season instruction will continue until the Nov. 29, before the Military Ball. ISA Welcome Big Brothers Aid Party Features CCiNY Freshmen The Student Council of the City College of New York has incor porated a "big brother" system designed to aid freshmen. Four to six freshmen are as signed to an upper classman who has volunteered to fill the ca pacity as advisor. Assignments arc made according to the corre sponding free class hours the freshman and the advisor have.

Half of the examinations arc scheduled and half are not. Those planned are twenty-one hours apart and must be taken when scheduled. The others may be taken any time the student de sires but must also be twenty-one hours apart.
