Collese Editors Guild Is
In Planning Stage in East
Have you ever had to blow
up 2288 balloons?
Or have you ever had to
track down and borrow 138
table cloths and 136 ash
trays? These are just a few of
the problems faced by the
Military Ball committee.
"Decorating Pershing Aud
itorium is a huge job," re
ported Art Hughes, decora
tions committee chairman for
the ball. "It's much larger
and more complex than we
realized at first."
Balloons
The 236S balloons are be
th ballroom atmos-
phere. They will be attached
io 36 streamers which will
be suspended 25 feet above
the floor in the middle of the
dancing area and 6 feet from
the floor on the edges.
"We're going to use foot
bellows to blow up the bal
loons," Hughes said. " We
had to find some type of

These include an Air Force

Nike missile, two carbon

Hartford. Conn. (UPS)
Editors and staff members
of four college newspapers
met at Trinity College to
organize a College Editors
Guild. Representatives of
the Trinity Tripod, Wesley
an Argus. Smith Sophian
and the Connecticut Conn
Census outlined possible
editorial policies on a num
ber of national and local
issues.
The 15 undergraduates
agreed to support the Youth
Peace Corps proposed by
Sen. Hubert Humphrey and
endorsed by President-elect
John Kennedy in the last
session of Congress.
The Youth Peace Corps
would permit yourg Amer
icans to work in underde
veloped countries as social
workers, technical advisors
and teachers in lien of mili
tary sen ice.
Lawrence Grow, editor of
the Argus proposed an in
vestigation of admissions
policies at member col
leges. He also suggested a
siudy of social stratifica
tions and limitations of mi
nority groups.
The group also discussed
the role of college public
relations, merits of read
ing periods prior to exams,
trimester vs. four course
curriculum, housing and
pressures, fraternities and
compulsory chapel.
The colleges planned to
exchange staff members
for a three-day period. The
exchange reporter who
would attend all college
functions during that pe
riod, would then write his
impressions for his respec
tive paper.
College Editors Guild was
founded this fall by the edi
tors of Argus and Tripod
with the understanding that
problems of mutual interest
could best be aired by a
unified editorial effort.
The Guild plans to use
its influence as a lobbying
body for national issues and
as a clearinghouse for lo
cal college problems.
