"Gee John"
By FRANK LANDIS
. . The dozen eggs, alias the
new initiates of Mortar
Boai'd, fried, boiled and
scrambled all over the
campus Wednesday after
noon. They directed traffic,
guarded Andrews and Bur
nett and entertained egg
watchers in the Crib.
The campus reaction to
the egg's slacks, sacks and
cowboy hats was "chucks"
for the most part, but on
lookers at the Phi Delta
Theta house were greeted
with water b o m b 6 and
"Didn't We" yells. In addi
tion, two very dignified pro
fessors leaving Burnett Hall
glanced once at a scrambled
egg marching back and
forth before them, then
walked on as if they noticed
noUiiiig out of the ordinary.
So if you happen to be
walking along and you hear
someone remark, "Holy
Smoke check the Yoke"
don't be alarmed, it's prob
abl just some Halloweeners
out for fun and games.

Evaluation
Scheduled
By Panhell
Group to Collect
Election Lists
Improvement of communi
cations between the women's
organizations on campus was
strongly supported in Pan
hellenic Council discussions
at their regular montihly
meeting.
Discussion of general com
munication improvements
arose when Susie Moffitt sug
gested that Panhellenic gather
together a list of all campus
elections, then join with other
concerned organizations to
formulate plans for coordinat
ing limitations and regulation
of election campaigns.
The Public Relations com
mittee was directed to begin
a study of elections and to
meet with other sponsoring
organizations.
Concerning general com
munication improvements,
Miss Madeline Girard, Pan
hellenic advisor, suggested it
would be a good idea for the
presidents and advisors of
such groups as Independent
Women's Association (IWA),
Associated Women Students
(AWrS), Women's Residence
Association (WP.A) and Pan
hellenic to meet at certain
times to exchange views and
ideas.
A straw vote of the group
showed support of such an
idea.
Jean Carlson was named
chairman of the social com
mittee, and Linda Reed was
named chairman of the health
committee.
Outgoing president Nancy
McGath noted that proposed
constitutional changes will
be presented at the next regu
lar meeting.
Next fall Panhellenic Coun
cil plans to hold a special tea
for all new housemothers. If
possible, they hope to hold
the tea in conjunction with
the Inter-fraternity Council,
Following an annual report
delivered by Miss MKiath,
Karlene Sera was installed as
the new president of Panhel
lenic,
Susan Walburn was named
the new vice-prebiutiUl of Tan
hellenic and Linda Lueking
will serve as secretary.
