Suddenly the young hound
stopped in front of a likely-looking
bush and came to rigid atten
tion. Hoping to flush the game,
the hero instructor decided to in
vestigate the bush and proceeded
to walk up to it and kick it. .
Strangely enough, the game
didn't flush,. but the Instructor's
face did a deep crimson red.
The reason the Instructor was
late for class is that it takes four
days to get de-skunked.

be returned to the AWS drop
box in Ellen Smith hall by Fri
day, Nov. 16 for the applicant
to appeal at the first hearing.
No grade average is needed for
appeal. The applicants will be
judged upon health, scholarship
and non-pointed extra-curricular
activities.
Members of the appeal board
are Miss Gertrude Knie, AWS
sponsor and assistant professor
of commercial art; Mary Guthrie,
AWS sponsor and assistant pro
fessor of home economics;
Nancy Button, AWS president;
Marilyn Moomey and ' Sharon
Fritzler, senior board members;
Ginny Koehler, junior and point
system chairman and Janet
Steffen, sophomore.
AWS discovered one big
weakness in the system. Sea
sonal work overlapped, in posi
tions. For instance, a woman
working in AUF may find the
work concentrated in one sea
son of the year and lax in an
other. Because of the heavy
seasonal work, the coed may
have to drop other activities.
The appeal board will hear
such cases and try to find a
fair solution.

Mrs. Julia Fuqua Ober, na
tional president of Kappa Delta,
an officer of Sigma Alpha Iota
and president of the Board of
Directors of the National Fed
eration of Music Clubs, was the
main speaker.
Mrs. Ober stressed the fact that
there is a reason for everything
in sororities. Each is a small de
mocracy where members exchange
ideas, live together and learn
teamwork and sharing.
Fraternities were the first stu
dent groups on any campus and
Panhellenie was the first inter
student group. So sound were
their ideals that colleges now
imitate them by having deans,
personnel consultants, scholarships
and even rushing.
Mrs. Ober went on to say that
a sorority woman owes her first
responsibility to her community.
The , University and then her
sorority must be her other loyali
ties. She also brought out the fact
that Greek women have a duty
as well as a right They learn to
give to others through philan
thropies and live a kind and
considerate life without snob
bishness. Only in a democratic country
are fraternities, of any nature,
